“Lauren and Michael go above and beyond - my dog can be a lot, but they are so good with him! I’ve used them multiple times for overnight/weekends, but just left him with them for 12 days. It was the longest I’ve been away from my dog, but I felt comfortable knowing how well they take care of him. They are considerate and responsive, highly reccomend!”

“Timmothy was timely with responses, and flexible with pickup time! He even left a gift for our dog in her bag! He kept her safe and happy! Even gave us local recommendations!”


“This was our first time leaving our pup, Leia, and we were a bit nervous. Leia needs a lot of attention and isn't the easiest dog to care for. She needs a daily walk and because she is so small (she's been circled by a hawk) she can't be let out to do her business unattended. Taking care of her requires lots of outdoor time! She also doesn't do well with other dogs so boarding her or staying with someone who has a dog is out. Howie and his family were absolutely perfect! They took amazing care of Leia, provided us with pictures, sent daily updates, and did everything to set our mind at ease. Howie responded quickly to all my texts and encouraged us to check in whenever we wanted. He was also very accommodating with pick up and drop off- especially when we encountered a weather delay and came in hours later than we expected. We don't travel often but when we do, I know Howie will be the first one I call. Knowing that Leia was being so well cared for and being loved allowed us to really enjoy our vacation. Thank you, Howie!”


“We had a wonderful experience with Kristina! She clearly adores dogs and gave my pup so much attention and love. She took great care of my dog and was careful to follow any instructions I gave her. She was flexible with pick-up and drop-off timing and a great communicator. I came home to a happy and tired dog! I wouldn't hesitate to leave my dog in Kristina's excellent care again in the future!”

“Or little monster was so well taken care of by the whole family! They sent us constant pictures, which really helped anxious people like me. We will be using them anytime we can!”

“This was my first time leaving my dog with someone besides a family member. I was nervous, but Nyree was great!! She made me feel comfortable and that Tsuki was in good hands. She was very accommodating and understanding of Tsuki’s food schedule and needs. I would 100% recommend her to anyone needing a sitter for their pet! 🙂”

“Bill went above and beyond taking care of our dog. Lots of walks, treats and snuggles. He kept us updated and sent lots of photos. Bill has great, positive energy. We will be sure to use him again.”

“Peter and Marcia welcomed our dog, Dolly, into their home and made her part of their daily routine. She was with them for just over a week. They provided exactly the feedback we requested and it was clear from their comments that Dolly was “at home” and acting like she would around us. They were wonderful at our “meet and greet” and accommodated a last minute change to our pick up schedule. At pick up, it was obvious that all the dogs were getting along and that Dolly had been well cared for. Highly recommend!”

“Alyson was so wonderful! I felt so confident that my dog was well taken care of. I could tell she and her husband both love animals and treated him as their own! We’d definitely book with Alyson again!”

“Mckenzie was an amazing host and caretaker for our dog. She was in communication throughout the trip with updates and photos, and she went above and beyond to make sure Auggie was comfortable. We will definitely be using her again!”

“LAN was great with my young Labradoodle. He stayed with her for two weeks while I was out of the country. She put my mind at ease by sharing pictures and videos of him playing with her dog Lucy. He seemed very comfortable and well cared for with her family. I wouldn’t hesitate to use her again.”

“Kira is an absolutely wonderful; I am so glad I found her! She took excellent care of my puppy and was always looking out for her. She takes incredible photos and shared them with me frequently, which I really appreciated. She was prompt and easily accessible to correspond with and I appreciated her flexibility. My puppy loved her and her dogs and was comfortable staying with her for daycare and for boarding. I highly recommend Kira!”


“We are just thrilled with the care Luna received from Doc and Heather and definitely recommend them! Thank you for all the great photos and updates! Hope to see you again soon.”

“Barbara is so kind and caring . My dog made a new best friend in Frankie Barbara's dog. My dog came home clean , tired and calmer than he has been in months . I think he loved the freedom of Barbara's doggy door and the turkey snacks. Don't hesitate to call on Barbara if you need a sitter no wonder she has 100* reviews. She earned every bit of it. We will be back maybe even just for a playdate.”

“My dog’s stay at Promise house was absolute wonderful! It was like camp for dogs! Great communication, updates and a loving caring environment, what more do you want?!”

“Our dog Anna has a welcoming home away from home with Ashlie. We never worry leaving her when we travel. Thanks so much to Ashlie and her family for taking such good car of Anna.”

“Bentley had a great time with Amy! She made him very much at home, with plenty of treats, walks, and couches! She was also flexible when my flight home was delayed and I needed to pick Bentley up a bit late. Definitely recommended!”

“If a ten star rating was available, that is what Betsy would be getting. Betsy took great care of our Roscoe. Updated us with pics while we were away. Roscoe was very comfortable with Betsy. Highly recommend Betsy's sitting services. Thank you again”

East Calhoun dog parents share their Rover experiences
Anna and David were the absolute best with our dog. They let us book on pretty short notice via referral from another Rover/mutual friend, and still made time for a thorough meet and greet before the booking started. We have a detailed care document (mostly because we like to cover all bases, even though the dog is fairly straightforward) and they embraced it, which put us at ease and let us know the dog was being cared for by folks that value what we do. On drop off day, we got the time mixed up, and they accommodated our error. Similarly, when the dog unexpectedly ran out of food while we were away, it was easily resolved with a delivery that they made time for. The flexibility was welcome! Our dog also took to them immediately, including their young child, which is especially unusual for a dog wary of kids. The child was very patient with her, and she even licked his face on the first day. We got updates with photos every day, and it was clear from those and upon pickup that the dog was right at home. Anna and David are affordable, too! Probably the best Rover we've ever used, and we'd happily board the dog with them again. :)

Laura and Miguel were great! They took the dogs on many walks, gave them lots of opportunity to play, and let the dogs lounge and relax. They were easy and quick to communicate and the pups felt well taken care of. Very friendly and caring household, definitely recommend.
We couldn’t have asked for a better Rover in Dorothy! Dorothy treated Opal as if she were her own - as Opal and Dorothy’s dog George became fast friends that played so well together. Getting adorable updates each day from Dorothy was a daily highlight. And when our flight was delayed a day, Dorothy didn’t hesitate to assist. If we could give 6 stars, we would!

Brian is an amazing dog-sitter! Our dog is always overjoyed to see him, and Brian gives such detailed daily reports and photos that we feel happy knowing what our dog is up to and confident that he is VERY happy and well cared for. Bonus: our dog loves Brian's dog and seems so happy to get to have time to play with her! Can't recommend Brian highly enough.
