Excellent dog boarder! Donald was very communicative, professional, and has a kind and skilled interaction with dogs. Our return flight was late and Donald was able to accommodate a late pickup time. We will certainly rebook with Donald again!

Where to begin?! Sarah is personable, hospitable, caring, funny, and more! It was a seamless transition from being at home with me to being in Sarah’s home with Bam Bam and her partner, A. The 3 of them made Seymore’s stay pleasant, comforting, and worth the price of admission. Sarah is communicative, asks permission regarding care and feedings, and went above and beyond in even sending him back with freshly laundered clothes. Oh wait….I can’t forget about the cake! Seymore almost killed me for the cake that she sent him home with. Was it supposed to be for me? Yes. Did he eat 96% of it? Of course. Would we do it again? Bring it. Sarah, thank you again for keeping my baby and treating him like one of your own. He felt safe and welcomed with you and I am so grateful for the updates, your flexibility, and you just being so amazing!!!!! ❤️?

Camilla such took wonderful care of our two young goldendoodles, we truly cannot recommend her enough. They always looked so happy and content in every update she shared. Our dogs can be very energetic and nervous around other dogs, but Camilla navigated this with ease and had the dogs completely calm and happy to be around each other. She also kept our dog with a tail injury perfectly comfortable and made sure she continued to heal properly. Would definitely book with Camilla again!

Lisa was such great host for Lillo: we left for the weekend and I was a bit anxious to leave my puppy behind but she kept me posted with texts and pictures, and she was so sweet and patient with him. I will definitely book her again next time we are out of town!

We LOVE Monica, especially Mira, my pup. She was patient and caring. You can definitely tell by the little things she would pick and comment on, that Monica is experienced with pets and that she really is an animal lover. She sent wonderful pictures and updates and I was able to enjoy my time away knowing Mira was in good hands.

Jessica was so great with our teenage pup Rudy and he seemed to have the best time with her and her crew. She sent us tons of photos and I could tell he was well-cared for while we were away. Would absolutely have her watch our boy again!

My first time booking a sitter through Rover, and my senior dachshund loved the weekend he spent at Eiko’s place! She took amazing car of my dog and seemed super comfortable with the notes I left her—my dog is pretty easy going but can be a bit needy at times. I got a handful of updates throughout the weekend but I was also able to turn my attentions away and feel really comfortable leaving her in charge of the little guy. I’d definitely recommend her, and I’ll likely be looking to book here again!

Billie Girl has done daycare here before (and loves it!) but this was her first time boarding. I’m always sad to leave her whenever I go anywhere but was comforted by the fact that even though it was her first time sleeping over, she’d feel right at home. And she did! John and Jamal took care of her like she’s their own. Park trips, a back yard with sun puddles to lay in, other dog friends to play with and lots of scritches. 10/10 would recommend.

Kelsey and Harvey were *incredible* sitters for my little terrier mix pup, Penny! This was the first time I've traveled without my dog in a while and they gave me nothing but peace of mind while leaving my girl in their hands. Amazing photos, communicative and quick to respond updates, all showed me how comfortable my girl Penny was in their home and with their sweet dog Maggie. I will definitely be booking Kelsey and Harvey again soon! ??

I had a great time with Brittany! We went on long walks and she helped me pose for photos to show my dad how much fun we were having. She even brought a friend for me to play with (after checking with my dad of course). 14/10 would visit again. - Numa

We really enjoyed Lindsey for our 5-day trip away from home. She was super communicative, flexible, and seemingly showered our lab Louie with cuddles, which was exactly what we wanted. We will DEFINITELY be using her as our go-to Rover.

Mary is the best! I felt so comfortable with her taking care of my dog, Dolly. Mary was kind enough to send me photos and many updates. She asked questions about her care plan to ensure Dolly was well taken care of. Mary took my pup on many walks, and gave her treats. I’m excited that I found a sitter for Dolly and will use her in the future. Thanks Mary, Dolly says hello!

My dogs love Jessica! My dogs are always excited to see her and it calms me down when I need to leave. I have a border collie and lab so they both need a ton of exercise and play time and they both have meds to take with their meals. I trust her with their routines because she is very organized and keeps me updated with how the pups are doing. She is always on time and consistent with her care so I never have to worry.

Right from the start, Noni was super communicative, proactive and engaged, making sure our dog Pickles was comfortable and working to figure out her schedule. Honestly, it took some effort and observation as this was a very different environment for Pickles but Noni was extremely attentive. Pickles was walked plenty and taken to the dog park as well. Never once were we in any way concerned for the safety or well being of our dog. Also we absolutely love getting pics and videos and Noni did not disappoint. Highly recommend!

Mehsaal was amazing! We left our 3.5 year old cat, Billy, with him for a month while we were out of the country. Billy was instantly comfortable with him and seemed already at home. Meshaal sent me regular updates through videos and photos, which made me completely worry free about leaving Billy. He also played with Billy with treat puzzles and bought new toys for him, that he absolutely enjoyed. Billy has a tendency to chew on plastic and plants, and Meshaal took care that plants and plastic would be out of reach from Billy. Seeing Billy happy and so comfortable with Meshaal makes me sure that I can leave Billy with him anytime! Thank you! ❤️
