“Vivi comes back so happy from her stay! We can tell she loves spending time with her friend Coco and she’s taken good care of. I will always choose Qian and Dongguang if I can ☺️”
“This was my first time using rover and let me tell you: I had a very positive experience 🫶 Both Josh and his wife watched Bruno for a week and treated Bruno like part of their family. Initially, I was worried about leaving Bruno with another family but on day one after getting updates and photos, I knew he was in the right hands. Bruno even seemed a little sad to be leaving his new friends 🥺 They communicated with me all week and most days I got photos and videos🤍 I truly appreciated them giving Bruno all the love and attention he normally receives at home with us. Bruno was even allowed to sleep with them and hang out on the couch! And I know he loved their backyard and their dog. Thank you thank you to them for keeping my Bruno safe and loved! 🤞🤍 Would book again and would recommend to anyone! 🫂”
“My dogs are always happy and safe with CECE, thank you very much for your love and dedication and efficiency in them well-being💙💙🐶🐶"God bless your efforts and the love you put into your work."”
“Maxine took amazing care of my furry baby. She kept me updated every day with the cutest pictures and videos. I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for someone they trust to take excellent care of their pet 😊”
“Haley was absolutely wonderful! We had to extend our time with her unexpectedly, and she accommodated us willingly—even on short notice. Her flexibility and kindness made a stressful situation much easier, and we’re so grateful for her support.”
“The host id an amazing job with Okoye. Big back yard. Location was easy to get to. Sent pics and updates to let me know how my guy was doing. I would recommend her again and again.”
“Nicole was incredible! This was the first time our Oakley would be away from home so we wanted to make sure we picked the right sitter. Nicole met us ahead of time for a quick meet and greet and Oakley loved her! She kept us up-to-date while we were gone and was so easy to communicate with. Highly recommend booking with Nicole!”
“Hermun was amazing! (As well as her trusted assistant, Riley - her adorable Beagle). She met with me before I booked and let Macie explore her home and check compatibility with our dogs. She would send me daily pictures and was very flexible on drop off and pick up times. I wasn’t worried about Macie’s happiness or safety. She has a great back yard which is protected and gated allowing Macie to enjoy the outdoors. I will absolutely rely on Hermun and Riley for future visits.”
“Fant has enjoyed a 10 day stay at Windelll’s place with lots of play, love and exercise in the large backyard. If you are looking for a safe place for your dog(s), I absolutely recommend Windell.”
“Our original sitter canceled last minute due to a family emergency. I contacted Stephanie less than 24 hrs in advance, and she was able to accommodate our stay. My dog Loki can be very timid at first in new environments, but with time was able to open up within Stephanie’s home. She makes sure to send daily photos, updates, and also will take your dog for daily walks. I felt extremely comfortable having Loki there, and would book again in the future!”
“We were very happy with Margarita and Clarissa. They treated our dog with love and care. They sent pictures and gave updates almost every day. Their home is large and comfortable.”
“Lynne and her husband were great sitters for our boy Knox :) I received pictures and updates throughout the stay. We would absolutely leave Knox with them again!”
“Eileen was amazing! Her apartment is perfect for a furry visitor. She was flexible with schedule and able to accommodate our time changes. I loved her little kitty, Pumpkin, and knew my pup was in good hands. I would definitely recommend her!”
“Janet is the best. She treats all pets as if they are her own. I trust her completely and have learned how to love and care for my dog by my association with her. I highly recommend her.”
“Kiran was wonderful. She is very communicative and makes sure that she has all of the needs for your little loved one. Plenty of pictures. Toby was very happy. Will use again. Thanks”
“Kory took such good care of our boys. We got lots of daily pics of them being silly pups. We would have him watch our boys again and definitely recommend him to others as a sitter.”

Chante's boarding service was exceptional. She is a great communicator which made for a very smooth meet & greet, drop-off and pick-up. She provided daily photos and videos of my dog in and out of the house. Upon picking up my Staffy, I realized how better behaved and obedient he was to commands (specially sit and stay). I contribute this to Chante's knowledge and experience with dogs and other pets. I am very pleased with my overall experience and would definitely book with Chante in the future.
This was our first time using Rover for a boarding service and Hailey was wonderful! Our two pups stayed with Hailey for 3 nights and I knew they were in great hands. She was communicating throughout the weekend with updates and sent tons of pictures. So grateful for her attentiveness and genuine care for our girls :)
Fist time using Rover, and was not sure about leaving Jack for a long weekend. Joshua and Jenna were great, from initial contact through meet and greet and the actual stay this weekend. Thank you for watching Jack…. He seems to have had a great time at the Blue Merle meetup!! And thank you for the pictures.
Joann was amazing with our girl Callie! She gave frequent updates and her dog Murphy was a perfect furry friend. She was so sweet with our girl, and I felt that I could fully trust our fur baby in her care. I would highly recommend Joann and would definitely rebook! 🐶❤️
I was very lucky to find Sofia to watch my puppy Ruby. I could tell from the pictures she sent that Ruby was being taken care of quite well and that they had a lot of fun together. Normally when Ruby is with someone else in a strange environment, she doesn't eat normally, but judging by what was left over, she pretty much ate normally. I will definately ask Sofia to watch Ruby the next time I go on vacation and need a dog sitter.
Kory was a wonderful dog sitter for the second time! Both were long stays around 3 weeks and my pup did wonderfully. I got pictures and updates. The communication was consistent. My pup can be picky with other dogs but Kory made sure we had a meet and greet - I was happy my pup made some friends! Would recommend.
Lizzie comes home happy, healthy, and unstressed when she stays with Delaney and Alex. They are gentle and patient with Lizzie, who is a senior dog. I appreciate all the pictures and videos Delaney sends me of Lizzie while I am traveling. Lizzie has stayed with them twice for a total of about 3 weeks and we have had no problems. I would not hesitate to board Lizzie with them again.
I have an overly affectionate Bernedoodle that could easily be too much for some people but Emily was so good with her. She gave me regular updates and even some solid feedback about how we might make overnights go even smoother. Our dogs are like our children so it’s important to find someone that you trust. I highly suggest you consider Emily for your dogs care
Carley is awesome!! She was able to take Peenut with less than a week’s notice. He felt right at home as soon as he walked in to her house! She dropped him back off at my home on the agreed upon time. He was happy and healthy when I got back home to him. Will definitely use Carley again for overnight boarding!! Thanks so much for taking care of my lil nugget 🥰
