“Damacia was a God sent especially at the last minute and having availability on a holiday weekend! I could tell right away that she loves what she does. She kept me informed on my Bentley’s playtime, eating and how he settled in with the other dogs! She even sent pictures of his interactions throughout the day! I will definitely be using Damacia in the future!”

“Royal and Rachelle were excellent. They are kind and we could tell took great care in our dog and the others they care for. They communicated all week long and gave us updates on our Bella. We felt 100% confident in leaving our dog with them while we were away for the week! Thank you!”


“Hillary was absolutely wonderful watching my pup Zephyr for the day. She sent pictures while Zeph was staying with her and kept me updated on details regarding how he was adjusting and feeling while in her care. It was clear to see how much she cared and prioritized my pups comfort over everything. We will absolutely be coming back and I look forward to zeph staying here again!!! :)”
“Lauren was such a great dog sitter! She sent multiple pictures and videos throughout the day along with thoughtful updates. She took my dog on walks, and I felt completely comfortable knowing my pup was getting to socialize with her dog and being cared for by someone who truly loves animals. She even arranged a meet-and-greet beforehand! I’ll definitely be booking with her again in the future!! Thank you Lauren!!!!”

“Dylan came hone happy, healthy, clean, and tired from Alexandra O.'s with no complaints (other than we think he misses his new doggie friends)!”

“Aaren & Jordon were the absolute best!! Our pup is a nervous / shy girlie, but she warmed up to them about immediately!! ❤️ She stayed for a long weekend while we were out of town. Aaren sent us photos and updates the whole time, and went above and beyond taking our girlie on runs / walks all around town!! She has been so sleepy ever since she got home and can tell she had the best time!! Will absolutely be using Aaren and Jordon for all of our upcoming trips. Can’t thank you enough! ❤️❤️”

“Jeremy took care of my dog Parker while I was out of the country for a week. I felt Parker was in excellent hands and seemed happy and rested when I got back! Jeremy was super communicative leading up to Parker’s stay as well as during it sending lots of fun videos of their strolls around the neighborhood. Would definitely use Jeremy again!”


“Laura and DJ took such great care of our dogs, Benny and Kiwi, while we were away for our wedding weekend!! They sent regular picture and video updates of the pups playing, getting love, and having fun. I can’t thank them enough! Definitely 10/10 recommend booking with them!”

“Matt’s place is my girls favorite place! They get the backyard, the cozy home, and all the friends they could hope for!! They don’t want to come home! Thanks for taking such great care of my crazy girls!”

“During July 4th, we planned on going out of town for the weekend. We were impressed with Julie's rover profile and decided to contact her. We were able to meet up with her twice, once so that she could see our dog, and the second time so that Mozzie could check out her place. This was the first time since adopting him over a year ago that were had ever boarded him somewhere, so we were understandably nervous about it, but Julie proved to be a great sitter. She sent us status updates and pictures while we were away, so that we could know what Mozzie was up to. When we came to pick him up, she also helped us with tips and ideas on how to help Mozzie socialize with other dogs. We could definitely tell that Mozzie was in good hands. Definitely recommended!”
“She is absolutely wonderful and so sweet she made my first experience the best! Took very well care of my pup and took him out to do activities and stayed active all day! Amazing 10/10 recommend her and I’ve found my sitter !”

“My pups loved their stay with Abby and her family! I highly recommend and will definitely use her services in the future! Being able to vacation with the peace of mind that my pups were safe and happy was amazing! Thank you Abby!!”

“Excellent sitter. She was so professional and caring. She walked him she played with him. I got pictures everyday. Bruno got along with her baby. They became good buddies. I can tell Bruno miss Snoop her pet. When I have to go away again I definitely want Myrna to be the sitter. You will feel good about leaving your pet with her”

“Kendra is the best! Yasha loves her and Gizmo and lights up whenever I tell her she is going to see them. She is personable and treats my baby like her own!”

“Kourtney is such a wonderful dogsitter! This was my first time leaving my dog with a non-family member, and using Rover; both experiences were great! Kourtney treated my pup as if he were hers and kept me updated regularly. She is kind, patient and knows how to care for dogs. Her easy going and kind nature helps ease any anxieties related to leaving your dog behind. It also makes you feel very comfortable to communicate with her. I would highly recommend Kourtney and will use her services again if needed! Leti”

“Christine was fantastic! She watched our dog for over a week and provided lots of updates throughout the stay. She is very communicative and easy to work with. We'll definitely book with her again in the future!”
“I wish I could give 100 stars ⭐️! Lucky and Matt took such great care of Zeus!! We received pictures and updates everyday and it made me feel extremely comfortable. I can tell they treated him as if he’s one of their own! He absolutely loves them and their pups, especially Gunner! We will look no where else when boarding! If you want your dog to be cared for and come home with no issues look no further. Thank you so much for taking such good care of our dog!!”

Fawnbrook dog parents share their Rover experiences
Aaren and Jordon are practically family now. This is the second time they have watched my girl and they take the BEST care of her. They love on her, make sure she is getting fresh air, and even take her on outings. I almost hesitated to write this review because I don’t want yall to know how great they are and then start taking all to spots - just kidding! I can’t be selfish! Everyone deserves to feel the peace I feel when my pup stays with them ❤️.

You want your dogs at Franceska’s! Wow, great house and backyard. Their dogs are great and our dogs became great friends. Franceska kept us up to date with pictures and let us know how they were doing daily. They had a great time. We have a senior dog and a puppy; they handled both with ease. Really great people to work with. Will have them take care of our dogs again!

Cindy did an amazing job taking care of Ginger! She made sure Ginger got plenty of walks, playtime, and attention. Ginger came home happy and tired, which tells me she had a blast. Cindy was reliable, caring, and kept me updated, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. I highly recommend Cindy to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter. Ginger can’t wait to see her again!

Julia was such a great fit for our French Bulldog, Marseille. She was playful and attentive and sent plenty of photos with updates. She was also flexible when I needed to extend our booking last-minute. Our dog enjoyed playing with the other pets in Julia’s care. I highly recommend. We will be rebooking.

“I recently hired Alexis to look after my pup, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. I were incredibly attentive, reliable, and genuinely caring toward my dog. Daily updates with photos kept me at ease while I was away, and it was clear my furry friend was having a blast. The sitter went above and beyond playing his favorite games, and even sticking to his feeding schedule perfectly. I’d highly recommend Alexis to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter. Five stars all the way!”
