“Being returning customer speaks volumes of the quality of the job business performed, and whether goods/service was worth the money. We are exceptionally pleased with Ron after first time dog sitting experience, and did not hesitate to bring our precious baby Pedro (12 y/old Chihuahua) for another boarding weekend with Ron. Pedro loves his pals (Ron’s 2 adorable dogs), and enjoys spending time at Ron’s house. We are so grateful for Ron, and feel we could not have found a better caregiver for our precious baby Pedro, and hoping to continue being customers for years to come!”

“Murphy is no ordinary dog, and has had quite a lot of mal treatment in the past. Barbara made him feel right at home. She truly is a dog whisperer. She even added some calming lavender scent in her home to help soothe him. By the end of the first stay, he was begging for pets and love, which is crazy coming from such a scared doggie. I don’t have enough good things to say about her! Would recommend to anyone and everyone.”


“Exceptional! Carly is a shy dog with others but because Sheila and David are such "dog people", they sent pics every day of Carly, peacefully laying on their laps! This was the first time ever boarding Carly and she is not used to having other dogs around her but, their own dogs, Mellow and Jaxon were well behaved and welcomed Carly. Mellow even shared his crate with Carly when she wanted a quiet place of "her own". The daily texts and pics were fun and welcome. Their home is perfectly set up for boarding multiple dogs if needed. The outdoor spaces are perfect! Plenty of shade and spacious enough to lounge or run around. I can't recommend Shiela and David more highly. If it is your first time boarding your fur-baby, and you are nervous about it, choose Shiela and David. You can rest assured that your baby, even a baby as shy as Carly, is well cared for with Shiela and David.”

“Gail is just incredible. Moxxi loves to head over, willingly walks in to her home. This speaks volumes! Recently, we had plane delays and I didn’t have enough food for Moxxi and Gail went to get more food for her and was incredibly pleasant and positive. I always know Moxxi is cared for greatly when I leave and that brings me so much ease.”

“Annie and her husband are extraordinary people. They took care of Roscoe, like he was there own. Annie took Roscoe on hour long walks, her husband hung out with him on the couch watching tv. Roscoe had a wonderful weekend. I had a wonderful vacation knowing that he was in good hands.I would highly recommend Annie her husband to watch your dog! Roscoe will definitely be going back to visit when I go on another vacation!”

“Our brand new baby puppy was in great hands with Sylvie. To be honest we were SO worried about leaving her for so long while she was just a baby but Sylvie communicated each day with us and sent videos reassuring that she was happy and healthy. We will definitely go back to her again!”

“I don't not do much public feedback or social media. But, I decided to leave one for Cathleen. She is a very nice person and she truly loves dogs. She took great care of my dog Daisy. When I picked Daisy up, she seemed relaxed and happy. There's is nothing better then having a happy dog. I will definitely see if Cathleen is available next time I need a sitter for Daisy.”

“Quedamos muy contentos mi esposo y yo con el cuidado que Erika dio a nuestra mascota Erika se encargo de enviarnos fotos y videos de las actividades que realizaban y mi mascota se veía muy divertida Con gusto regresaremos a ella para el cuidado de mi mascota así que también la recomendamos al 100%”


“Richard & Jeanette are very friendly and trustworthy! I have total peace of mind when I travel because I know my dog is being well cared for. Lola loves spending time in their home...from playing catch to snuggles...she receives a lot of love and attention! 🐾💕”

“Vicky was absolutely amazing! She cared for our 2 dogs the week of our wedding and helped coordinate to get our dogs to the wedding. She sent many updates and pictures, showing our dogs were happy and healthy. I would recommend Vicky to anyone looking for a pup sitter, she was just the best.”

“Beth is amazing! She took excellent care of my pup and sent me pictures while we were gone. I will always use Beth because I know my pup will be taken care of and happy when she’s there.”

“Christina was amazing with my dog and you could tell by his smile that he had a blast! Definitely will be booking again!!! My dog usually doesn’t open up to people but hearing how they bonded so fast was so heartwarming and relieving how much fun he had with Shiloh as well? Thank you❤️❤️”

“Charlie and Carlos very much enjoyed their multiple day visit to Janice's house while I went camping over Labor Day weekend. Janice is great with dogs and her little dog Bug was a treat for my two little boys. I felt very confident my little buddies were safe and happy the whole time I was gone. When I picked them up I could tell they enjoyed their visit and I would recommend Janice to anyone. Thank you again Janice for giving me to freedom to take at trip like this without worrying about my two little dogs. Your the best and I will use you again for sure. Kev.”

“Katarina is a warm and caring dog owner and host. She has a wonderful house and yard and two friendly dogs. My dog loved exploring her interesting yard. I will definitely use her again and recommend her to others. I know my dog was happy and well cared for there.”


“We needed someone to watch our older dog while we were away for a week. Being new to the area we really didn't know anyone and we wanted our dog to be in a home environment where she wouldn't be alone. My wife found Cynthia on Rover and we went over to meet her. We were immediately impressed by the secure yard and surroundings. Our dog immediately bonded with her little dog Chewey. To make sure, we arranged two "play days" to make sure that all went well. Everything went better than expected and I, being an overly protective pet parent, felt at ease with leaving our dog for a week. I had nothing to worry about. Cynthia took great care of our dog, sent us regular updates including pictures and videos. She let our dog settle-in at her house where ever our dog felt most at ease and took her out for regular walks and time in the yard. When we came back we found that our dog had such a good time that I'm not sure she wanted to leave! Needless to say that Cynthia will be our first choice to watch our dog whenever the need arises! Your dog will be in good hands.”

“Thanks for taking such great care of Clancy again Lara. I love all the photos and videos you supply. It is such a comfort knowing he’s having as good a time as we are! See you the next time we plan a get away.”

“Cashmere was well taken care of by Ana. My little dog got to play with Ana’s little dog. The socialization was great. Cashmere was taken on walks in the neighborhood. Ana did a great job communicating to me on a regular basis. She sent pictures and video often. We had a god experience.”

El Cortez dog parents share their Rover experiences
Kayla was absolutely excellent with my dog Maggie. She sent pictures and updates every single day, which gave me a lot of peace of mind while I was away. Maggie was clearly well cared for, happy, and comfortable the entire time. Communication was great, very reliable, and I could tell she genuinely cares about the animals she watches. I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog sitter

I’ll definitely have my furry buddy stay with Marraya again!! Marraya has excellent communication and updates periodically throughout the day!! I never had to wonder because I was always informed!! Nico was well taken care of and high spirits when I picked him up!! Marraya will definitely be #1 on my list when we travel again and need care for Nico!!!!

Lacey was incredible with our pup Sulley. Super communicative and very easy to work with. We don't leave town often and were worried how our big guy would do with mom & dad away for several days, but Lacey's calm and caring demeanor instantly put our fears to rest. Thank you for taking such amazing care of our Sulley Boy!

Claryssa was amazing. It was my first time ever boarding and she made it so easy. She sent me photos everyday and updates. I just adopted him so she helped me see quirks and any issues he may have. If I ever need help again she is my first choice for sure. Even after a couple weeks I can see that he was taken care of in every way. Thank you so much!!

Alex was a lovely sitter for Jackson and Ranger, she came down to our ‘hood to do the meet and great which was really helpful. Lots of pics and updates while I was away and the boys were in good shape when I picked them up! Happy to endorse Alex and will not hesitate to use her again in the future
