1. Allison Nicole M.
“I would highly recommend Allison to take care of your dogs! She is so caring and definitely communicates with you to let you know what's going on! Her dog, Mollie is so sweet too! She has 2 fenced in areas- a front yard and back yard with a pool! There is definitely plenty of places for your dogs to roam and play outside. She also has a nice area inside for them to play and where she gives tons of cuddles! She honors whatever your routine is, as I wanted my dog to sleep in her soft crate and be fed twice a day with pottie breaks every 4hrs. She is very reliable, dependable, efficient and a total sweetheart! She knows how to slowly introduce dogs and makes sure everyone is safe and comfortable besides having fun! I was so calm knowing that my Lola was in good hands and given so much attention by her, her family, and the other dogs! A definite 5 star rating in my book!”
2. Angie E.
“Took care of my cat while my apartment was being chemically treated! Sent frequent pictures and updates and was a great sitter. Followed instructions and kept him fed and happy.”
3. Sandra C.
“My dog, Ollie, just spent a week with Sandy and I cannot say enough about how great she was. I hadn’t ever left him with anyone other than family and from the first minute I met Sandy during our meet and great, she put me right at ease. She was communicative and caring and he clearly had a great time. I would (and will!) rebook her in a heartbeat!”
4. Steve R.
“My 4 year old rescue Oscar is a very nervous pup. He is a mamas boy to the core. Had to leave him in CT to travel to FL for my sisters wedding. Orignally was planning to kennel him until I heard about Rover. Steve had over 100 return customers so we scheduled an interview. His home was comfortable and he allows full access to the dogs. We received pictures of Oscar daily and he made himself right at home lol. As long as Steve has space, next time we travel, Oscar will return.”
5. Nikki & Britney S.
“Nikki and Britney were extremely kind, accommodating, and loving towards our dog Rio. We hope to use their boarding services again! Thank you!!!”
6. Liane L.
“My dog came back more socially adjusted to other dogs, when she’d previously been quite nervous around them. Liane went above and beyond with sending updates on how she was doing. We are so grateful for Liane, it takes the stress out of having to find a sitter to have someone so caring that my dog loved. I can, and have, recommended her!”
7. Alyssa M.
“Jake had fun! He came home to us exhausted which is good. Alyssa would send us photo updates and we had no issues with her, would recommend! 😁”
8. Kathy H.
“Kathy did a great job watching and caring for my dog! She sent pictures and was great at communicating how my dog was doing while I was gone. Will definitely be using her again!!”
9. Ana L.
“Ana took great care of our dogs Albus and Scout while we hosted an event at our house that needed to be pet free. Her home is in a great location and my dogs seemed very happy in her care. We’ll definitely reach out again when we need a pet sitter!”
10. vassu k.
“Orion is so happy with Vassu and her family. I dropped him off, and he never looked back. Vassu communicates daily and sends pictures of Orion playing with her dog and resting. I 100% recommend Vassu!”
11. Heather & Norman R.
“We boarded our dog, Guinness, with Heather and Norman for two days, and they were absolutely wonderful! Heather and Norman were sweet and took excellent care of Guinness. They took him for walks and even sent us photos. It was clear that Guinness and their dog, Zeus, got along so well and had a great time playing together. Now that he's home, Guinness seems sad and misses Zeus. We will definitely use Heather and Norman's services again. Highly recommended!”
12. Aishea A.
“I know that my cat is always in good hands when he is here. It helps so much to have a caring and reliable person to watch him when I am away.”
13. Glorymar O.
“This was an amazing experience! It was my first time using this app and it will definitely not be the last! My dog loved her and her family and I cannot thank her enough?We will be boarding with her again soon!”

19. Chris S.
“Chris was amazing with our Scruffy! We appreciated her photos and messages…and Scruffy appreciated the walks and the love! We highly recommend booking with her! Thank you, Chris ?❤️”
20. Kristin S.
“Kristin was absolutely amazing! As a first-time pet owner, I was nervous about leaving my 6-month-old puppy for three weeks, just two months after adopting her. Kristin went above and beyond, providing not only shelter, food, and affection but also invaluable training. She ensured my dog got plenty of exercise and even introduced her to swimming! Kristin sent daily updates with pictures and videos, keeping me constantly informed. When I picked her up, Kristin gave me a detailed report on everything—from her food intake (with tips on avoiding digestive issues) to her training progress. She even provided advice on making frozen treats and other ways to support her health. As a new pet owner, I was incredibly grateful for this guidance. This wasn’t just pet-sitting; it felt like a boarding school for dogs! Kristin, along with Mark and sweet Kaia, created an incredible experience for my dog. I can’t recommend her enough—she is the most knowledgeable, caring, and well-rounded dog sitter you could ever ask for.”
