“Our little senior doxie, Rocky, spent 2 weeks with Barbara and we couldn’t be more happy with how it went! Barbara gave him lots of love and cuddles, and they spent some time watching Dodger baseball together. Rocky can’t wait for the next time he can spend time with Barbara 😊”

“Shari is the absolute best! Roscoe had never stayed with anybody except for us and she made him feel so loved and relaxed. We are so thankful for the care she provided our pup and for the updates and pictures. I was so nervous to leave him but she reassured us that he would have a wonderful stay and she was right. Her disposition is so sweet and calming. Highly recommend!”

“My eighth month old pup, Laezel, recently had a great two week stay with Kris. I had anxiety at finding Laezel the right sitter because she can be very high energy, but Kris handled her expertly and she came back to us healthy and happy. Kris was also very communicative and gave us numerous photo updates.”


“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.”


“Jamie and Nicole were amazing with my dog while I was on vacation. They sent daily updates and were very sweet to my pup. Their communication was fantastic and I could not be more appreciative of them. Will absolutely book with them again in the future.”

“Our dog has stayed with Abe twice now, and both experiences have been wonderful. She always comes home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. Abe truly knows dogs — his meet and greet was the most thorough we’ve ever had, which immediately gave us confidence that she’d be in great hands. During her stays, he sends photo updates that show she’s comfortable and having a good time. We really appreciate the care and attention he puts into every detail. Highly recommend!”


“Damon was so friendly, and Benny loved his stay. We received photos and updates about our boy during his stay which made leaving him bearable. Benny loved all the fun adventures he got to go on and definitely loved all his new friends! We definitely recommend Damon and will have Benny stay again.”

“Jason took wonderful care of our pup while we were away for the holidays. He was very responsible and communicative. Argus was relaxed and happy when we returned home to see him!”

“What an amazing individual and her little doggie, Zoe. Marybeth is super casual, interested, caring, and flexible. She understands pets and their importance. I loved her tree-lined neighborhood and the HUGE fenced backyard available for my little pupper to play. I've decided Marybeth's the one to trust with my little pup, Mia.”

“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!”

“Kathy provided excellent care for our dog during a weeklong stay. He has some special needs, and she went above and beyond to accommodate him. Kathy was very responsive and sent lots of updates, photos, and videos. We have great peace of mind when our dog is with Kathy and her family. We appreciate you!”

“Perla had a great time with lots of play! Elizabeth has a nice big home with lots of room to run around both inside and out. Her dog Lilo and Perla got along really well. We'll definitely be a repeat customer.”

“Laura was so amazing!! We left our 4 month old puppy with her and she was extremely accommodating. She communicated with us throughout the whole process and even sent us updates, since our 5 year old son was pretty concerned about leaving his best friend with a stranger. I felt very comforted knowing Sylvie was in great hands. I would recommend her to anyone!”


“River seemed to really love staying with Amy and her family. Their yard is enormous - a HUGE bonus to us because River doesn’t always get along with other dogs at a park. River was able to get worn out in the backyard and have bonus leash walks. Amy sent updates, photos & video and communicated if she had any questions. We will definitely book with Amy again!”


“5 stars for Jean. I needed a very late pick up time and she was happy to accomodate. My Maltese Celeste was sitting in Jean's lap on the couch nice an cozy at the end of her stay. ”
“Angus had another fantastic staycation with Sabrina & Keelan! They and their pups welcome Angus into their pack and spoil him with walks, snuggles, and playtime. So happy we found them!”

Far Southwest dog parents share their Rover experiences
Damon was awesome! My dog is very large with lots of energy, and I got lots of pictures and videos of him playing with other dogs and having a great time. All the updates were awesome and totally kept me from worrying at all how my pup was doing. He seems like he was very well taken care of and I’ll definitely book Damon again in the future!

Peter was friendly and super helpful, and my uber energetic boy dog liked him right away, always a good indicator to me. Peter stayed in good communication and sent great pix of happy Fen having a good time with Peter's dogs. When I picked my pup up, he was happy and well tired, obviously played a lot. We'll go to P again and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Peter's services to others.

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.
