Kayla was great! I really appreciated how flexible she was when it came to the time I needed to drop and pick up my dog. I like how she sent me a picture and gave me updates while I was gone and that made me feel more comfortable. Would definitely recommend!

Theresa and Adrian took great care of my boy while I was away for a few days! They kept me up to date and also kept up with his normal routine of long regular walks to keep him fulfilled. I also appreciated the flexibility with drop off and pick up times. Thanks for taking good care of Butters!

First time booking with Angela and it won’t be our last! She was incredibly kind and considerate when taking on Wade. The meet & greet went great and the stay was even better. It’s clear she cares about animals and their needs. Wade had a great time! Great communication throughout his stay and very accommodating! Highly recommend.

Jess was very accommodating on a last minute trip I had planned. She was very flexible with my schedule and availability to meet. I was extremely nervous as this was my first time utilizing Rover, as I usually book with PetSmart but I wanted to make sure my senior dog was well taken care of as boarding can be stressful for older dogs. Once we had the meet and greet, my dogs immediately loved Jess. She made sure that their routine stayed as close to the same as at home to ensure their comfort, and sent pictures and updates daily (which I loved). Even when we picked our dogs up, they still wanted to play and love on her so I knew they had a blast. If you’re wary about booking with Jess, this review is for you, she was absolutely awesome.

Sofia, thank you so much! Sofia was fantastic. Communication was perfect, and much appreciated. We had a good meet and greet to start, which led into a very comfortable and fun stay for Ara. The pictures said it all, I coudl see my dog smiling in every photo as she was so happy. When a pet owner is away for 8 days for work, it precisely this that makes it a tad easier. I would highly recommend Sofia, and hope to have Ara stay with Sofia again in the future.

If you have a small dog, Beverly is unreal. My frenchie loves going to her home. She is given so much love, care and attention the entire time she is there. She has her own bed and rest area during the day with lots of toys. She never goes in a crate or cage, and plays all day long. At night Beverly lets my cookie sleep in the bed. If you are reading this go no further, Beverly provides unbelievable care. I would never consider an overnight kennel and once you try Beverly to babysit you wont either. Thank you Beverly for caring for my baby.

Lasya was wonderful. She was able to accommodate our blind senior pup on short notice and took excellent care of him. He was very much at home in her home, and we were sent daily updates and photos of our dog as he settled in. She was very responsive before and during our dog's stay with her, and she was more than happy to accommodate the modifications in care needed for our dog. She treated him like he was her own puip for the weekend, and we would happily trust Lasya with his care again in the future.

5/5, 10/10, A+ care from Aaria! I had boarded my 7 year old anxious rescue with her and she was extremely accommodating and even on a shorter notice. He was very comfortable with her and at her place, she also kept up great communication while I was out of town. I will absolutely be going back to her if I need care for him again! I can’t recommend enough, she provided such great care for my dog! :) Thank you agaiN Aaria!
