“We had a great experience with Deborah and her family! They gave so much attention to our Baxter and sent so many pictures and updates on his stay.”
“Suzanne was amazing! She took great care of our puppy during her first time being boarded. Lots of pictures and updates which made us feel included!”
“Leo always enjoys time with Terry and his sweet wife. I know when he’s with them that he’s being loved on and cared for like he’s their own. I’d give them more than five stars if that was an option!”
“Our second time leaving Rodney with Kristopher and his family and it went even better than the last! Check ins were great and he came home very happy and tired.”
“We are so appreciative of Ruth and she did a wonderful job caring for our 12 week old Aussie puppy! She is conscientious and caring and did a fabulous job of keeping us updated and sending photos of our Sonny! We were so happy knowing Ruth was with our puppy when we needed to be out of town. We highly recommend booking with Ruth for your Rover needs!”
“Lauren was quick to message, sensitive to my concerns and questions, compassionate to my boys, and showed them so much love. Her dogs temperament did not give me any concern to be around my dogs and her house and yard is dog friendly.”
“Dan was great! Super nice guy, he sent us updates with photos throughout our trip. He has a nice big home with the perfect open yard. His dog was so sweet and friendly, our dog made friends with her immediately and was a great companion. We would definitely hire Dan again.”
“Remi had a blast with Alexandra and her kids! All the attention and playing he could ever want - he was sad to leave. Will definitely be going back to them again!”
“Wow, Timothy went ABOVE and BEYOND!!! We received so many photo updates everyday. (And he got CUTE photos of my non-photogenic dog somehow haha!) He took them for a walk everyday, gave them lots of outside play time, gave us multiple updates a day, helped us load up their stuff in the car upon pickup….just greatly exceeded our expectations. HIGHLY recommend!”
“Jenny was wonderful with our 14 yr old dachshund, Charlie. She sent pics and updates every day, and it was evident our little guy was well taken care of and content in her home. I would definitely rebook with her again in the future!”
“We left our dog with Linda for 3 days. Her dogs were very friendly and they got along well. He loved being able to run around the fenced yard. He seemed so happy and free. He is usually very anxious but he didn't have any issues while staying with Linda. He did really well with Linda. Thanks for taking such good care of him.”
“Sam kept Appa very happy. She sent pictures to show he was doing well. Immediately when we got out of the car, she engaged with Appa and it was obvious this would be a good place for him to stay. I would strongly recommend Sam and if I have a future need I hope she will be available.”
“Leslie is so patient and kind! It sounded like my dog was a little more rowdy than usual (suspecting due to new medication she was placed on) and Leslie appropriately reached out to check if I had tips or tricks to make her feel more comfortable. She reassured me many times to not worry, which was nice to hear she had the situation under control! Would definitely trust Leslie again to watch my dog!”
“Amber is AMAZING with our cat! She sends regular updates and is very responsive and flexible. I never have to worry about how Toothless is doing because I know how well his needs are being met when he stays with Amber ☺️”
“Brittany and her husband were great caretakers for our dog Lego! She kept us posted throughout his stay with pictures and text messages. We will definitely use them again!”
“Pam did an amazing job taking care of my puppy! She was understanding of Aubrey’s needs and kept me updated with lots of wonderful pictures and videos so I could rest assured my puppy was having a great time while I was away. Aubrey came home very tired out from so much fun time playing with the other dogs!”
“Tatyana was fantastic! Our dog can be a bit anxious when we leave and she was great about meeting all of his needs. Tatyana truly loves dogs and had such great communication with us during Jet’s stay! We felt comfortable that he was taken care of and, more importantly, he was loved! We would highly recommend her for your baby!”
“Marina did a wonderful job caring for our dog. I feel like extra steps were taken to ensure she was comfortable, eating and sleeping well. Additionally, we received daily updates on the status, activity levels and pictures. We simply could not ask for a better caretaker while we travel.”
“We had a great first Rover experience with Molly and her dog Izzi. It was our first time leaving our dog for the weekend and Molly was perfect with our nervous dog, and with communication and sending pics. I know our dog felt much more at ease with the help of having Izzi around. We’ll definitely rebook with Molly & Izzi - highly recommend!”
“Excellent communication. Checked in with messages and pictures often. Asked clarifying questions. Made our pup feel right at home in her home. Followed our care instructions perfectly and made sure to give our pup lots of love, walks, & playtime!”

Forest Hills dog parents share their Rover experiences
Katie and Austin were incredible dog sitters! Wonderful communication beforehand, pictures and updates every day, and just a pleasure to work with. Would highly recommend to other pet owners! We'll definitely use them again!
Great communication and very nice. Maya had a wonderful time and came home very tired for days. Would recommend to anyone
Gabriella was very attentive with Stella while we were gone and sent lots of pictures. So appreciate her care!
We have had Raluca watch or dog a few times. And every time we have been happy with how well she takes care of her. Definitely recommend
Maggie was responsive and welcoming. She communicated throughout the week with pictures and videos. Our dog clearly had a fun time with her dog and family and even kept up with her normal eating routine unlike when we have had her boarded at a kennel. We will definitely use Maggie again and highly recommend her.
Lindsey and family were awesome! We went out of the country and they watched our Winston. I felt super comfortable with the care that they gave him. He definitely felt loved.🥰 I highly recommend Lindsey. Will definitely be using her when we need someone again if she is free.
