Great caring home for our pups while we were out of town. We had good communication throughout our boarding experience and our dogs made an art project for our fridge! That’s a first. Definitely will be using this boarder again. I didn’t worry once about them while they were there.

Our dog was happy and tired out after a one night stay with Cheyenne. There are no doubts that she loves animals and I felt confident in her ability to provide care for our dog. She was thorough and asked great insightful questions to know she would keep our dog safe (ie made sure she knew if there was any food or toy aggression, she put her bananas on the top of the fridge without our guidance because she guessed he was a big dog who might reach them off the counter!- she was totally right on:)). She keeps a clean home that met all the needs of our dog, a lot of playtime, a walk. Our dog enjoyed having the fenced in yard and playing with the other dogs that were there at same time. We got nice pics too!

We were very pleased with the care Ginger received while we were in Hawaii for a week. We were a bit nervous leaving her for a week, but Becky’s updates/photos/videos let us know Ginger was having a great time! We will definitely use Becky again!

Kami was amazing and the location is perfect! We had never boarded our 3 dogs and was a little nervous about the whole thing but after seeing the location and meeting Kami and her crew I was quickly put to ease. Lots of pics and communication over the 4 days and we couldn't have been happier with the experience. Highly recommend!!

First timer to Rover and it went great. Were able to have a separate meet time to make sure our dog got along with Chelsie’s dogs and that made our stay better. Chelsie sent a few pics each day which we appreciated and I am grateful to have been able to leave our dog Pippa in a home environment! Great experience-

Our beloved Australian shepherd was well-cared for by Steve and Diane. I am certain we missed him more than he missed us. Their care has made us much more comfortable with the idea of traveling more often to the places he cannot come.

I am so thankful to have found Peg and Greg! My dog does not always do well with other dogs and doggy daycares are not a good fit for her. My parents usually watch our dog but could not so I searched Rover and found Peg and Greg. We did a meet and greet and immediately knew they were a great fit. They have a huge fenced in backyard stocked with plenty of squirrels to watch and chase. I was a bit nervous to leave her with new people (even though I was comfortable with them) because my dog has some separation anxiety from me but that was quickly calmed. Peg sent tons of pictures and updates every day. When I came to pick up my dog she happily greeted me and then resumed her squirrel-watching post at the deck door as if to say, "Hi Mom, thanks for coming to visit me at camp. Come back again next week!" I will definitely book with them again!

Ashley took great care of my baby! Needed someone to watch him last minute for a few days but I am very particular on who watches him. Ashley and her dog Bailey were a perfect fit for him. She took him to the dog park and sent regular updates as well as pictures to assure me he was doing well. Would definitely bring him back to her again!

Kathi and her daughter took such good care of our dog Bear. She walked him every day in the morning and at night to avoid the heat. When my dog was scared of the fireworks she sat in the bathroom with him to calm him down. She even has a twin size mattress on the floor for the dogs to sleep and lounge on! I received frequent updates and was never worried about him. I cant recommend her enough!

Ann was amazing. She took care of our senior dog with some medical needs and aging and gave Louise exactly what she needed with such positive kindness. We got pictures and videos and felt like our sweet little old lady dog was truly in the best care during our trip. I will definitely use Ann again because she was incredible.

We recently booked with Leanna to care for our anxious 6-year old pup, Alexis, while we went on an extended vacation. This was our first time using Rover and we were very nervous given Alexis’s medical conditions and unique needs. Leanna was warm, friendly, and promptly responded to our initial inquiries prior to booking. During our trip, we received regular updates and photos showing Alexis making new friends and receiving lots of love from Leanna and her family. It was reassuring to know that Alexis was happy, comfortable, and well cared for while we were away! The handmade keepsake we received upon picking Alexis up was such a thoughtful gift. We will definitely book with Leanna again! Thank you for taking care of our sweet girl!

Kathi has provided the ultimate care for our aging yellow labrador Hank. He arrived for his latest stay with an upset tummy probably caused by watching us pack our bags! Kathi checked in with us and then took the extra steps you would take at home, preparing rice and meat to ease his tummy back to normal. We are so grateful to have found her! We appreciate her communication skills, including daily updates and pictures which put our minds at ease. We highly recommend Kathi's services, you will be so pleased with her care!

Cindy and Brooke were awesome in caring for our Springer, Benny. Her place is well set up for taking great care of you pet. Her fenced yard is a bonus place for dogs to be able to safely go out. The kennel size was very good with good light for our dog and comfortable space and her place was both welcoming and clean. Both of them exhibited excellent knowledge of animals and handling them well. We would definitely use Cindy again.
