“I am so grateful for Kathy's conscientious care for Molly, including handling her complicated medication needs. Molly is always thrilled for her stays with Kathy!”

“Lynn is the best Rover we ever had. She plays games with her dogs and makes sure to find the best way to get our picky eater to eat. Our dog is very comfortable at her house because she is treated like Lynn's dogs and she fits in with her pack. We get daily updates with pictures and videos and we never have to worry about our dog while we are away.”

“They run to see Miss Pamela and Marshall when I drop them off. This lets me know that they enjoy their time there. She is great about giving updates and I am happy with their services.”

“AMAZING!!! First of all even before how amazing these two are - they are right he the airport. About them: I knew my pups were so happy the entire time they were there. I received so many great pictures and little stories about their day. These two were so enthusiastic about loving my dogs and letting me know. Sarah even works from home some days so you know your pups are happy 24/7. My dogs just got home and they are completely passed out so I know they were active and happy. I highly recommend Brendan and Sarah.”

“Jason gave us so much peace of mind while we were away for the weekend! Regular updates and photos of our dog and was super flexible when our pickup time was changed. I was so happy when I read that he volunteers at his local animal shelter because that really shows how much he cares for dogs & that he can handle all types of dogs!”


“Amazing dog sitter, would highly recommend. You can really tell that she and her husband care and love the dogs so much. So glad and reassured that Miso was in their hands for a week and had so much fun. Would book again for future trips!”

“Stacie and Doug were amazing. My dog has several medications she needs to take throughout the day and she is older. They were wonderful about keeping me updated on her stay with them. It really gave me peace of mind as I was on vacation. I will be booking with them again soon …highly recommend Stacie and Doug.”

“As always Lulu had a great time with Susan and Frank. Susan sends lots of pictures and Lulu seems very at home from napping in a doggie bed to playing with the other dogs in the backyard. Lulu and I both are happy and secure when she boards with Susan.”

“Our two pups had a wonderful time over a long weekend with Tara's and Peter's family! Thank you, and thanks for your flexibility on scheduling when our travel plans were disrupted!”

“Thomas was absolutely amazing! He gave fantastic updates and sent lots of photos of our sweet pup while we were away. He obviously cares, and has great attention to detail. Our dog came back happy and well adjusted. We will definitely be using him again in the future!”

“I am so pleased with my dog sitting experience with Karin! We were really comfortable during the meet and greet. Karin took the time to ask questions about Sonnie, and Sonnie and Chubb interacted and played like they had already met. This was my first time leaving Sonnie with her, and 2 minutes after I left she sent me a note and picture, putting me at ease immediately. She communicated and sent pictures a few times a day. She goes above and beyond and I will definitely use her services again (if/when she is available)!”

“Thankyou so much for taking care of Lucky. You are the the best. I had no worries leaving my little Lucky with you. Sent me pictures every day to keep me updated on how Lucky was doing. I Would 100% definitely rebook again.”

“Keeley is amazing with my large Bernedoodle, Nori. She has stayed at her home multiple times for extended periods while my family is out of town. Nori gets plenty of exercise in the big yard and is happy as can be to come back again and again. 😊”

“We’re really happy with Debra and how she handled everything for our dog while we were out of town. We arranged for a meetup before the stay to ensure this would be a good match. When I dropped off our dog there was an introduction to the other pets in her home so our pup could get acclimated. While we were away we received daily updates with photos and it looked like our pup was having a great time. Thanks for taking good care and we look forward to scheduling with you again!”

“Anna was simply amazing. My dog really enjoyed being with her. She even got my dog eating which speaks to Anna’s warm spirit. Book with Anna and you won’t be worried.”

“Aspen was so great. I was nervous about using rover and leaving my dog with a stranger, but Aspen was amazing. She was very friendly and welcoming when I dropped my dog off; she told me that she would be to take Effie on a few walks throughout the day and that she might even take her up to the lake. She sent me daily pictures and updates about the walks she would take with my dog and just overall how my dog was doing. It was nice to get the updates/pictures while I was gone for the week and put me more at ease with leaving her. There was a portion of Effie’s stay that another dog was going to be there and Aspen was very accommodating and wanted to make sure it was ok with me that there was another dog there (it was), but she even offered to go to my home on those days to let Effie out if it was not. I would definitely recommend Aspen and would use her again in the future :)”

“I know that biscuit had a good time and being taken care of really good. He is content and happy when i picked him up. I will definitely call them again if biscuit needed to be watched again. Thank you so much.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Fairfax
I will admit I had a lot of anxiety about leaving my 16 yo pup for 6 days but I knew I was leaving him with people who care about dogs. They were so aware of my dogs needs because he is not a dog who likes dogs he prefers humans. So he was kept away from the the active dog area and he did very well. He ate his food which is iffy if he is away, he drank water which is rare, and he even started getting use to the other pups. I am so happy he adjusted and came out of his shell. I just moved back to Cleveland and I’m so happy I found a place he feels comfortable in so I can get some more trips in. Oh and I got updates and that helped ease my mind in a big way.
