1. Rebecca N.


“This is our 2nd time booking 7 day stays for our Labs Teddy & Tucker with Becky & Bob. They are well cared for and we love the pictures they take time to send us while away from our fur babies. We highly recommend!!”


2. Crystal M.

“We were nervous to leave on vacation as our dog can be a bit nervous when it comes to anything new. But Crystal was amazing with our anxious little guy and we quickly knew we made the right choice reaching out to her! She sent us daily pictures and updates which helped ease our minds. We will definitely reach out to Crystal again as I think Louie was little sad to leave! ? ❤️”


3. Amanda B.

“Amanda and her family (including their awesome dog) took care of our pup as though she were their own. We received pictures and updates throughout her stay. We had great peace of mind knowing our little dog was receiving such ample love and attention. Our dog looks forward to a future stay with Amanda!”


4. Heather B.


“Heather is extremely friendly and helpful. She did a meet and greet with us a few weeks before our dogs scheduled boarding date at her house, so our dogs could meet her and we could see where they would be spending the day. We have 3 dogs and they can be a bit overwhelming, but Heather was very calm and patient with them. She responded in a timely manner when I texted to check-in during their stay. This was our first time leaving our dogs with anyone other than family, so we were a bit nervous, but we’re really pleased with how it went. We will definitely be asking Heather to watch our pups again in the future.”


5. Evgenia B.

“Evgenia took wonderful care of Ollie while we were gone. She was perfectly prepared and has a warm and welcoming home making the experience easy for Ollie as us. Evgenia communicated very well and kept us updated with notes and pictures. Thank you so much Evgenia!”


6. Katelyn M.

“Hands down the best sitter we’ve ever had for our dog! We were desperate for a last minute dog sitter and came across Katelyn on Rover! From the meet and greet to her actual boarding stay, Katelyn has been so great! She sent so many photos, was on top of it with the communication and assured us that Millie was in the best of hands! I couldn’t recommend her more. Already looking forward to our upcoming bookings with her!”


7. Eleanor S.

“Ellie is terrific! She took great care of my dog and cat while I was away. She also sent daily updates with photos and videos. Recommend 100% and I will absolutely book her again.”


8. Heather & Rob R.

“Gibson very much enjoyed his stay! Heather, Rob and family were great hosts!”


9. Donnie P.


“Very knowledgeable and easy going. I had previously left my fella at a local dog hotel and I could tell the difference in mood on my guy when I picked him up from Donnie. My pup was as cool as a cucumber, Great job!!!”


10. Nancy S.

“Nancy was so great. She took care of our cat while we were on vacation. She was in touch with us and keeping us updated on daily bases and provided lovely pics for our cat. Our cat looked very comfortable and happy. It was a peace of mind having Nancy taking care of our Pet. Will do it again as needed.”


11. Devin F.

“Devin was fantastic! We enjoyed the good communication and Carina had a great time running around in the backyard playing with other doggies. Definitely recommend!”


12. Samantha K.

“Samantha did a great job of taking excellent care of my dog. She responds promptly to any communication. She gave me daily updates on my dog while I was away which was really appreciated. Our dog received lots of exercise and attention throughout his stay. When you leave your family pet with someone, it is always a relief to know that they are being well cared for and this is what Samantha provided. Will definitely be using her again.”


13. Mikayla & Alen W.


“I felt so comfortable having Mikayla & Alen watch my puppy. They are so knowledgeable as dog owners and really catered to her needs. Puppies can be hard but they made sure she was happy and comfortable and sent me pics! I got a full rundown of how everything went when I was away which made me feel really good, and I’m sure they will see Leyla again. :)”


14. Brooke L.

“Brooke has an genuine love of dogs and it is obvious. She was very accommodating and very happy to make Chance feel at home. It was a great family atmosphere and we were very comfortable knowing that Chance was being well cared for and being given lots of attention.”


15. Allie P.

“Love Allie and how much she cares! Dobby was the happiest baby in her care. She loved him and gave him happy memories. I trust her 100% with my pets! Thank you Allie!!”


16. Julianna A.

“Juliana was able to take care of Archie last minute, which was greatly appreciated! She was very flexible with the drop off and pick up, which was greatly appreciated since we went out of town for a wedding. Juliana was attentive to the instructions I gave her regarding our dog and asked questions for clarification. Juliana was open to meeting up a couple days prior to the booking, and our dog was able to meet her two cute dogs as well as her kids. We trusted her and her family with our dog immediately! She also made sure to send us lots of updates and pictures while we were away. 10/10 would recommend her and I will be a returning client :)”


17. Olivia D.

“Blush was happy and made a new friend while staying with Olivia and Marco. Chocolate Mousse was very tolerant of Blush. We got lots of pictures and we know she was well loved while we were away.”




18. Robert M.


“They were well loved & I got daily updates with pictures! Mia & Bear were happy to see me when we picked them up, but I think a little sad to be leaving their new friends! Bob & Kathi get a "better than home" rating :) ”


19. Manessa L.


“Ollie & Meadow love Manessa. She takes very good care of our pups and keeps us updated with photos daily. She takes them on daily walks and gives them a lot of love and attention. We highly recommend Manessa.”


20. Susan P.

“We were a bit nervous to leave Louie with someone for 9 days for the first time. With that said, we had a very positive experience and are already booking our next trip with the hopes Louie can return. We got daily pictures and updates . Louie seemed to have a great time with Piper. It felt as though we were leaving him at a " home away from home" while he was with susan and her caring family.”
