“Carola was wonderful to work with. Our puppy was loved and cared for and we appreciate how kind and accommodating Carola was. We had a great experience!”


“I couldn’t be happier about his care for my mutt! She loves him like a second family and knows when we arrive at her ‘other’ home. She loves his dogs and his couch…. Ken is a great guy and knows dogs!”


“Haylee was awesome! My dog really enjoyed staying with her. We had updates throughout the day and I could tell he was well taken care of and loved.”


“Lori was absolutely awesome! I’ve used Rover for years and Lori is probably the best Rover sitter I’ve met. She truly enjoys taking care of the pups in her care. Her own pups are very sweet. Her home is clean and located in a nice area that’s very conveniently located. Moose truly enjoyed his time with Lori. He settled right down and enjoyed all the walks. Lori sends pictures and video during the whole visit. You can’t go wrong leaving your pup with Lori.Thank you sooo much Lori. You are a lovely person and such a gift and a blessing! 💕🐾💕🐾💕🐾”


“Cassandra was able to accommodate our pup at the last minute for our trip out of town. I could tell she had a great time from the several photos and videos we got throughout our trip (which also comforted my husband, who always worries about our fur baby, so much!) Our husky can be a handful, so it was good to know she was in great hands while we were away.”


“Hello, this was our first experience with Lilly. We have 2 large dogs that seem to have loved her! We will definitely be using her services again!”


“Was so pleased with Lorna! I left my sweet 16 month old Boston terrier with her and she sent many pictures and Queenie was so happy when I picked her up :) have already rebooked for another weekend with her!!!”


“Kelley has been absolutely amazing with my dogs! Thank you for all the photos and FaceTimes! Without a doubt, I would use your services again. Thank you for taking such great care of Aubri and Remi! 💛”


About: We have been boarding dogs in our home for almost 2 years. We fostered dogs before that, and we have owned dogs our entire lives. I am a stay-at-home mom and my husband works full time from home, so your furry best friend will be in good company while you're gone. We strive to make your dogs stay as smooth as possible with a consistent routine and ample play time. We have 2 dogs that have their own space, but like playing with others if that's something your dog would be interested in. Dogs in our care have free range of the main living area in our home. They are allowed on the couch. We crate the dog(s) when no one is home and at night for bed time. We try to keep feeding schedules the same as yours and we have a fenced in lot. Dogs are let out very frequently and given lots of play time. Our house is clean and safe. The crates are sanitized between dogs. All dogs in our care must be good with children, crate trained, and good with other dogs.

“I cannot say enough good things about Samuel and Erica! This was my first time boarding my dog, and I was incredibly nervous—but they made the entire experience amazing from start to finish. A few days before the stay, they invited me over for a meet-and-greet so I could get a feel for their home, meet them, and introduce my dog to their sweet pup, Lana. The moment I walked in, I knew they were the right people. Their space was welcoming, safe, and dog-friendly, and their kind energy instantly put me at ease. Throughout the stay, they went above and beyond. They sent frequent updates and lots of pictures, which made me smile every time. It was so comforting to see my dog happy, relaxed, and having a blast with Lana. When my dog didn’t want to eat at first, they reached out right away and kept me posted until she finally finished her dinner—something I really appreciated as a nervous first-timer. When I picked her up, she was completely worn out—in the best way! After three days of nonstop play and attention, she came home happy, tired, and clearly had the time of her life. Samuel and Erica treated my dog exactly how I would want her to be treated—with love, patience, and genuine care. They communicated wonderfully, kept me in the loop the whole time, and truly felt like people I could trust completely. I’ll absolutely be booking with them again. Highly, highly recommend!”


“Carly was amazing! We have avoided going anywhere since moving cross country as our senior Labrador retriever has arthritis and some hearing and vision issues. When we had to leave town for a family emergency, we were grateful to have found Carly on Rover and scheduled a meet and greet. There were no reservations after meeting her and seeing how comfortable our dog was in her home. Carly was accommodating for her needs and sent us pics and updates on her stay. We highly recommend Carly and will not hesitate going out of town again.”

“Faith is reliable, kind and caring. This was the first time we had her sit for Jellybean in HER home rather than ours, and it went great. THANK YOU for such a wonderful experience, Faith.”


“Danielle took great care of Piper and Gracie, and adjusted her schedule to fit my hospital procedure. I felt comfortable leaving them in her care.”


“Kathryn was absolutely wonderful with my Copper Daniel. She consistently kept me updated with how he was doing. I would recommend her to anybody!”


“Sheryl was able to keep our Cane Corso very happy for several days while we attended a funeral out of town. She came to meet him prior to his visit to her house and got to know him. She was totally used to dogs and expected his “I don’t know my own size” puppy attitude. She made it all very easy and updated with lots of pictures and communication to ease our minds about being away from him. I will definitely be using her for all of my dog boarding need from now on!!”



“Erica”


“Jennifer was so great keeping our Maverick! She gave us honest feedback and let us know each day how he was doing. I was so relieved to find someone we can use now and he was so much happier with them than at a boarding place. I was at peace knowing how much he would be loved and cared for. Thank you!”


“They were great! We got lots of pictures of our boy while he was there and he looked like he was loving it! They took good care of him and we will be re booking! Thank you!”


“Can’t recommend Hannah enough! She has been SO great to work with, has the best yard for playing, sent lots of pictures/updates, and our dog loves the whole family! We’re so happy to have found her, and are looking forward to more stays in the future!”



“Melanie did really well my dog on a week long trip. Will use her again. She is knowledgeable about dogs and gave me some pointers about my dog too. My dog was happy and healthy when she returned.”

9. Raven & Levi J.
“Raven has shown all the things one would feel comfortable with providing pet care while away. Not only does she provide care for our dogs, cats and chickens. She took notes of their quirks and their routines to make sure they stayed on schedule. She provided them with their medicines, kept the litter boxes cleaned and the chickens contained. Our animals and pets have never seemed in distress when we got back. Sometimes I think they are sad when we are back because they might not receive the spoiled attention they got from her. She's a trustworthy individual whom we feel comfortable with. She has provided animal pet care services for us several times now.”
