“So happy I booked with Kayla to sit my pup while I was on vacation. She kept my mind at ease with all the pictures and the updates. I felt confident she would treat my dog right. I definitely plan on booking with her again in the near future.”
“Spike had such a good time over there, and you could see how happy he was through all the pictures. He was one of the pack and I’m super excited to have found Allesha to take care of him :)”
“Jessica was super easy to work with, accommodating and her energy is 10/10. We have a big rescue puppy who did so well with Jessica, and we think was sad to leave her. Will definitely use again in the future.”
“I was nervous because this was the first time I'd left Picasso with someone he didn't know. Ekow was extremely kind and sent updates of a happy dog daily, which made me feel much better. We've found a new sitter and I will definitely be reaching out anytime we need a sitter. Five stars!!”
“We were really happy with Stella's overnighter with Joe and Madeleine! Stella is a rescue dog and has been skittish and nervous about a lot of things. We were a bit worried about how she would respond to being boarded for a night. Joe and Madeleine, along with their friendly dog and cat, put Stella right at ease. We are really grateful and hope to get help from Joe and Madeleine again when we take a vacation. Thank-you (and your wonderful dog & cat) so much!”
“We are so thankful to Erika and her family for looking after our Dexter so well! We got daily updates and pictures of all the fun he was having. Erika did an amazing job administering his medicine. It was such a relief to have Dexter in such good hands. Thank you so much!”
“Jessica was amazing! She gave me consistent updates, was very kind and nurturing, and has a very sweet and pleasant demeanor that made me feel confident she would take great care of my baby. I will definitely be booking with her again :)”
“Jax had a great time with Natalia. He loved playing with her dog and my daughter loved that she sent pictures during his stay. Would definitely recommend. I was nervous as this was our first time leaving him with someone but would not hesitate to do it again with Natalia. Thanks for taking such great care of Jax”
“I am so pleased with the care Tara gave my pup Tegan while I was away. I got frequent updates by text as well as with pictures and videos. She was also quick to respond when I had a question. That really helps me put my mind at ease. I hope Tara is available next time Tegan can’t come with me when I am out of town. 6/5 stars!!! Thank you again so much!!! I truly appreciate it and I know Tegan did too:)”
“Steven was great as always. He moved something around on his personal schedule to accomodate my late flight so that I could pick up my dogs that night rather than having to pick up the next day. Would recommend.”
“Took great care of Gus! I very much appreciated their daily updates and flexibility with pick up/drop off. Were very pleasant and communicated well. Would certainly have them watch Gus again!”
“Jeff was very attentive to Duke's needs and sent tons of updates. He clearly spent a lot of time hanging out with Duke and making sure he was comfortable and happy. I plan to book with them again.”
“Nia sent pictures and a report of how my fur baby was doing everyday. She was quick to respond to any communication I sent her. She was caring and loving. Her home was very inviting and pet friendly. I would give her a 5 star review!”
“Thank you so much to Kayla for taking care of Clio in her home while I was away. I truly appreciated her genuine care and easygoing nature -- I felt much more at ease. Communication before and during boarding was solid. And it's a bonus that Kayla lives so close to where I do, meaning the kitty didn't have to endure an extended car ride. Thank you again!”
“Renee took absolutely outstanding care of our golden retriever, Charlie, while we were on vacation. From the moment we met her, we felt completely at ease knowing he was in such capable and compassionate hands. She treated Charlie like her own—making sure he was well-exercised, well-fed, and showered with attention and affection. Renee kept us updated with messages and photos, which meant the world to us while we were away. It was clear from Charlie’s happy demeanor when we returned that he had been loved and cared for every single day. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would wholeheartedly recommend Renee to anyone looking for truly exceptional pet care.”
“Queeny took such great care of my 5 month old puppy! She sent pictures and videos throughout the time of our Kaju being with her. She is also so attentive! At home we get Kaju’s water from the filtered fridge water spout out of habit and Queeny noticed that Kaju wasn’t drinking tap water and provided him with filtered water. I absolutely recommend Queeny!”
“Rubin seemed to really enjoy his stay! Beverly kept me posted about Rubin throughout the day with pictures and video, and she was very attentive. I would definitely leave Rubin with Beverly again!”
“Lisa accepted our booking very last minute and was so kind and accommodating with our drop off and pick up time. She replied quickly when we checked in to see how Belle was doing. Belle had a great time and we hope to book with Lisa again in the neat future for our upcoming travels! We were extremely pleased with the care she received.”
“Shivadarshini was great to work with! When I reached out to her about Biscuit staying over while we were away, she offered Biscuit and I stop to by for a quick visit ahead of time to make sure we were both comfortable with her staying for a week. Biscuit had a great time playing with her dogs as well. She sent outfits twice a day which was so sweet and kind of her to think about doing. She met any need or requirement I asked for. Biscuit will be visiting again next time we are out of town.”

Jess is wonderful. I have engaged her twice to board my American Staffordshire Bull Terrier. Both times issues arose, one was a health issue and another where my flight was cancelled and I needed extra days of care. She cheerfully accommodated the situation and put my mind at ease during a stressful time. She takes great care of Halle, who is a rescue and can be reactive towards other dogs. I usually have to give a lot of instructions for sitters, but not so much with Jess, she just knows what to do. I especially noticed that Halle was more relaxed after staying with Jess. Now that she is used to her, I feel really comfortable leaving Halle with Jess.
Jessica was absolutely fantastic! This was my first time leaving Gumbo with a sitter from Rover and I will definitely be rebooking with her. She provided solid updates, sent great photos and overall I felt so comfortable and at ease knowing she was giving Gumbo the best care.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ABOVE & BEYOND If you are looking for a place to board your baby, stop scrolling right now. Seriously. You’ve found the best of dog boarding! Brandon doesn't just "watch" dogs—he basically invites them to a 5-star bootcamp where they also learn how to be the "Goodest Boys and Girls" in existence. Why your dog will love him (and you will too): * The Training Magic: The passion for training is real! * The Vibe: Most boarders are "drop-off and pray." Here? It’s pure love. * Best in Town: No competition. None. Zero. If you want your pup to have a better vacation than you're having, this is the spot. I’d give it 12 stars if Rover let me. Absolute legend! 🐾
We left our dog Rory in the care of Miranda and Cameron for over two weeks while we were away on vacation. They provided us with updates on how she was doing while away, and they were also able to deal with a couple health issues that our dog was dealing with at the time. When we picked up Rory, it was easy to see that she was well taken care of in Cameron. We would definitely recommend using them for your dog sitting services and we look forward to reaching out to them the next time we need a dog sitter as well.
Michael was amazing with my little man, his updates made me feel so much more comfortable about leaving my puppy for the weekend knowing he was in such good care. He went above and beyond during my little man’s stay, working with me so well on the random things involved with puppy adjustment. The next time I need to have someone trustworthy and kind - I know exactly who to contact and look forward to him watching my dog in the future.
Rafael and his partner took fantastic care of my senior dog, who was still recovering from recent surgery. They were incredibly attentive, providing daily updates and photos that gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. They’re a super communicative and genuinely kind couple — I could tell Mistral was in great hands. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again. Highly recommended!
Stefania and her boyfriend were incredible sitters, and I mean that in earnest. They were able to offer overnight care for our dog after a last-minute cancellation, and they went above and beyond in making him feel part of their family. They're very active! They took our pup on multiple walks at dog parks and even hiking trails; after I picked him up, he had a bath and then fell right asleep. Happy dog, happy human.
