“Barbara is a really warm person who my dog took a shine to right away. I was very comfortable leaving my little buddy with her and it sounds like they had a great time 🙂”


“Jamie and Nicole were the perfect hosts for my sweet Ralph. He was the only pet in their care and got all the love and attention he is used to getting at home. I received sweet updates and pictures everyday. I highly recommend them to care for your pampered pet.”

“Huge thank you to Peter and family for taking amazing care of Rosie! We needed a last second sitter and they were amazing to coordinate with. The communication and pictures were great during our absence and our dog was very happy after being there. Would definitely rebook!”


“Amy is great! She responded right away when I contacted her and followed up with me on the morning of Coco's stay with her. She was very flexible and accommodating, which my husband and I really appreciate. We loved getting the picture updates of our spoiled princess. Thanks again, Amy!”


“One of my dogs had to go to the vet and was put on several medications the day before we left. Ron had no problem caring for him and making sure he received his medicine. He also kept me updated on how he was doing. Everything went great and the dogs came back happy and well cared for.”

“We recently adopted Finn and were a bit anxious about how he would do after being with us for such a short time. Kristopher was wonderful—patient and responsive from start to finish. He kept us updated with photos and info that really put us at ease. Finn clearly had a great time with Kristopher and his family!”

“She is very lovely and caring person, and she took care of our dog very well. Roseinda was sending a lot pictures of our dog and making sure he is getting well taking care. Thank you for your great service, we appreciate that!”


“This was Mali’s first stay and she loved her time with Damon! Damon sent us updates and pictures and she was obviously happy and well loved. She came home tired from playing with him and his dog Moose, who is a lovable lab. We have already booked Mali’s next stay with Damon.”

“We highly recommend Shari! From our meet and greet to the drop off and pick up, she was wonderful. Our dog Izzie, who can get anxious and nervous, was given the attention she needed, especially in a place she had never been before. So happy to have decided to try Rover.com and to find Shari. Maura and Joel”


“Dottie has a great "puppy playhouse" and our Hazel was pampered and well cared for. This was Hazel's first time and she was relaxed and happy when I picked her up. Really appreciated the daily photo updates on how her stay was going. That was very reassuring. Hazel will be returning for another stay this summer and I highly recommend Dottie!”

“So happy to have come across Jennifer and Eric before boarding our pup. Seeing photos of him snuggling their kids and knowing he was being loved on all week gave us so much peace of mind while we were on vacation. Thank you guys so much!”

“Elizabeth and Sterling were fantastic. I booked last minute without much time for a meet and greet, and not only did they oblige and still meet same day, they made me feel comfortable leaving my dog with them. Their dog Lilo is such a sweetheart as well! They provided updates and exercise and I knew my pup was in good hands. Thank you so much for your great care! And I'm sorry again for the late plane arrival on my return!”

“Keelan and Sabrina took great care of our dog, Bingo. It was Bingo’s first boarding experience, so we were a little nervous, but they helped to ease our worry by doing a meet and greet first and then providing daily communication with updates and photos while we were gone. Bingo had a blast playing with Minty and Loki. We would definitely book with Keelan again!”


“Our dog stayed for 2 weeks with Susie -- we were nervous as we had only recently adopted him, but he seemed to have a great time during his stay with Susie! She sent daily photos, which we loved. We hope to be able to have our dog stay with Susie again!”

“Marybeth and family took good care of our dog Toby for a week. I believe Toby had as good a vacation as we did! He got to play with Zoey and keep an eye on the cats. He spent time relaxing on the back deck watching the chickens. Working out the details with Marybeth was easy and she's quick to respond. She's obviously good with animals.”

“Noemi went above and beyond to make our nervous small dogs comfortable. Lots of updates throughout the weekend, and they clearly had a great time during their stay with her.”

“Jason is a natural when it comes to caring for dogs. Sheldon warmed up to him instantly and his communication was spot on as he was kind, thorough, and thoughtful with his responses and updates along with plenty of pictures to keep me involved with his care. Gus & Star are very sweet as well and Sheldon left with new friends. Hoomans & doggos alike! Jason is flexible as well and simply made the whole process so easy I would highly recommend him to care for your pupper! Many thanks Jason 😊”

“Our two Goldens were well cared for at Angelica’s home. She was responsible and a good communicator. I appreciated that she was home during the day and seemed to be a natural with animals. I felt very comfortable with the whole experience and would not hesitate using Angelica again.”

“My dog loved staying with Hayleigh! They have a calm, welcoming home, a sweet dog, friendly cats, and a big yard. He was happy and well cared for. Highly recommend!"”

Far Southwest dog parents share their Rover experiences
2Pac enjoyed hanging with Peter & the fam. It was great to have him stay in a conveniently-located single family home, with a grass backyard, and a caretaker that’s not overly multi-tasking or away during his stay. I received substantive and picture updates often. 2Pac came back clean and content. I also appreciated flexible scheduling for drop-off/pick-up and the opportunity for a pre-meet & greet at a nearby park to help acclimate. We’d definitely book again.

Obi absolutely LOVED his time with Alicia! Alicia was fantastic - she was flexible with my unpredictable work schedule, took my pup out on a ton of walks/adventures, and sent photos and updates during my time away. I’ll definitely plan to board my boy with her again and Obi is already looking forward it!

Tom watched our dog Winnie while we were on a 10-day vacation. Winnie is a shy and slightly skiddish pup, and Tom understood that and gave her the care she needed. He sent us regular updates and photos which was much appreciated. I recommend Tom and plan to board with him again. Thank you Tom!

After having a sitter cancel and needing to find someone to watch my two pups for 10 days over Memorial Day weekend... Macey saved the day! She was so communicative and caring that I truly had no worries while I was away. She was diligent in understanding and following their care instructions. Even my little anxious boy was snuggled up and calm with Macey. 10/10 recommend hiring her to love and care for your fur babies!

Leah took such great care of Udon and Pongu. She was communicative, open, and friendly from the start, and her daily photo updates were a highlight of our trip. Both Frenchies looked completely at ease with her, and it was clear they were having a great time. As any Frenchie parent knows, these little guys come with their quirks, and Leah handled them with warmth and confidence. We came back to two happy, well cared for pups. We would book her again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her.

Rose took such great care of our dog while we were away. She sent sweet daily updates and photos, took her on walks, and made us feel totally at ease the entire time. Our dog got along great with her dog and came home happy and relaxed. She was warm, communicative, professional, and clearly really cares about the animals she watches. We’d absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her!

Abe was so professional! We saw his space , and we put his dogs with my dog (on a short walk) to see if they all would get along. He told us about how he has really taken time to learn all he can about dog behavior and training throughout the last few years. So, I would recommend him as sitter. Also, he seems like a really nice guy. My dog came back happy. I think he got a lot of exercise.
