Tonisa was amazing!! This was our first time using the site or having a dog sitter so we were a bit nervous but she made us feel so comfortable leaving our fur baby with her! She even sent us pictures everyday?

Shani (and her kiddos☺️) LOVED on my pup while I was away. Shani was an excellent communicator and sent update photos and videos, too. I really appreciated such good communication and how well Lady was taken care of. When you see your dog smiling in the update photos, you know it’s real. I’ll be looking to book Shani for my next trip away.

Iman is caring and creative with her "guests". For this stay, Iman presented me with artwork that was created by my dog, Honey. I never worry about my dog when she is in Iman's care.

It’s so cute to see my Chaseypoo interact with Amia and Joshua, the kids and their pups. They adore her and she comes home happy and tired and ready for a nap.

This was my first time using this app, and I was soo nervous. But that feeling immediately went away when I came across Christine. She has been phenomenal with my two fur babies. She went above and beyond to keep me updated with how they were adjusting. She sent me daily pictures and videos. I barely had to supply anything for their stay. They were comfortable and loved as if they were her own. It’s soo comforting to know that I can depend on another doggy lover outside of myself to trust. I will for sure be using her services again when needed. Thank you rover and Christine. I can’t express how much I appreciate this. I wish I would’ve found this app sooner ?

Mercedes is an angel. I have of the two most spoiled and stubborn Doodles in the world. This was our first trip where they were away from family. I knew that adjusting to someone else would be difficult for them, but Mercedes was so reassuring that all would be well. She was so patient, kind, and loving with my babies. I was so sure that we would have to cut our trip short, but with the updates and open dialogue on how to approach their care, I was left feeling at ease. My babies fell in love with her and they don’t do that easily. She has a wonderful supportive family and I wouldn’t trust them with anyone else.

Janet was the best! I was nervous to leave my dog behind, but she eased my fears. She sent me pictures every day and her dogs welcomed my dog into their pack right away. He was sad to come home! I couldn’t have asked for a more wonderful sitter. We’ll definitely be repeat customers! Thank you, Janet!

Another great stay at Elizabeth's house for our energetic puppy. When we brought him home he was sad and whiney because he wanted to go back he had so much fun. We love this family and their care that they give Oliver. If you are on the fence about using Rover....search no further and give Elizabeth and her sweet family a try. You will not be disappointed with their exceptional care of your furry friend!

Dominique is great with my girl Pip !!! My dog recognizes her block in the neighborhood as we walk by and even stops to smell the entrance with excitement each time we pass by. Dominique is quick to respond, sends lots of updates with pictures, and I come home to a happy tired dog after being away!!

This was my 1st time boarding my pet. I was worried but Dwight came with such great reviews so I took a chance. I am so glad I did. Dwight was amazing with my pup and my pup even made new friends. I will be rebooking ASAP and I am also going to include traditional daycare. Thanks Dwight and thanks Rover for doing all the research and making the process seamless!

Sassy had such an amazing time with Michael and Joanna. They really made her feel at home. They have the perfect setup to take care of your pets with all of the essentials and more! Sassy was able to make new friends and receive all the love and attention she desires. They made sure to keep me up to date by sending daily pics and videos. If you are looking for a safe, reliable, and fun environment for your dog, be sure to book with them. They are true pet professionals that provide the support and care needed for your animals. And they even made a cute collar and bandana for Sassy that she loves! I will definitely bring Sassy back whenever I need a sitter.
