Nikki was great taking care of Heidi. Heidi came home happy, worn out and with remnants of glitter on her. I would definitely use Nikki again

Ryka had an amazing stay with Jennifer and her family! They took such good care of Ryka with tons of hugs and belly rubs. During the time away I get pics updates of my pup daily. At the end I feel like my own pup dont even wanna come home with me anymore!

If I could give more stars for Carly, I would. We were worried about someone taking care of our beloved pet Chase. He's a Vizsla, if anyone knows about this breed knows that they're very attached to their owners and many times suffers from separation anxiety as ours does. We are retired so we spent every day with him, and rarely live him alone. For our 41 wedding anniversary, we decided to go on a cruise so we spent a lot of time thinking about what to do with Chase, but we were lucky to find the best person for the job Carly and her husband. Were a lot better than we expected. Can't recommend highly enough to anyone who is in a similar situation. Thank you Carly for the bottom of our hearts for taking good care of Chase. Everything went perfect in our vacation thanks to you, and your love and dedication to Chase. Respectfully, Haby and Cristina

Olivia was great, I left my miniature schnauzer with her for a week. She sent pictures every day of her where she looked like she was having a great time with her two small dogs. I would definitely recommend Olivia to take care of your pets, she did an awesome job.

She even had a meet and greet in the beginning to meet roodles....we felt very comfortable leaving Roodles with her. Our dog is scared of fireworks and Debbie comforted her and got her through it on NY eve

We needed someone to watch a very active 1.5yr old Brittany, and we are really picky about who watches our animals. Sandra was recommended and boarding with her and Mark was the best experience ever. Missy’s stay with them was literally a doggy vacation with a Giant yard to play in, long walks, huge professional kennel for her to lounge in, and, picture/video updates every day! They even have a TV in the temperature controlled kennel space so our girl could listen to tv like she is used to at our house. I look forward to using them again. They are a bit of a drive for me but I will use them every time over trying any of the 15 closer results rover showed me. It is well worth the peace of mind knowing that your dogs are being pampered not just boarded.

We left Xena and Apollo with William and his family and they treated them as one of their own. I felt comfortable leaving my pups with them and will use them again next time. Usually when we leave town, we have to retrain our dogs, but this time I feel like they came back even more trained. I appreciate William and his family reinforcing our rules and training habits, it makes a world of a difference. I also loved getting pictures and communication while the pups were there.

Heather was fantastic! She and her family did an amazing job caring for our Maltipoo, Remi, over the weekend, sending regular updates and photos. He looked so happy and seemed to have a great time. I had such peace of mind knowing he was well cared for while we had to travel. I can’t say enough great things about Heather, and definitely plan to use her for future care for Remi. Highly recommend!

Kara took such great care of our dogs! She took us very last minute and was very accommodating! She offered pick up and drop off as well as grooming and bathing for both which I am extremely grateful for! The doggies came back happy, smelling good, looking fresh and well cared for! Definitely recommend and will be booking again!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Ms. Catherine was absolutely wonderful with Francois and Girbaud! From the moment we met her, I could tell she had a genuine love for animals and a calm, nurturing spirit that immediately put the boys at ease. She went above and beyond every step of the way—sending adorable photo updates, keeping me informed, and making sure they were comfortable, entertained, and well cared for the entire time. When I got home, both dogs were happy, relaxed, and delightfully tired—which to any dog parent means they had a great time! It’s clear she gave them plenty of exercise, play, and affection. Ms. Catherine treated them as if they were her own, and I truly appreciate her kindness, patience, and reliability. I can’t recommend her enough. If you’re looking for someone who’s attentive, trustworthy, and genuinely loves what she does, Ms. Catherine is the one. Francois, Girbaud, and I are so grateful to have found her! 🐾❤️

This was my first Rover experience and how amazing it was! Selau was able to help me board my 8 week old kitten last minute. She was great with communicating to book and along the way. I loved getting updates and pictures of my little girl too! It’s great to have someone who is kind and caring for our fur babies to help when we may have to step away! 10/10 and will certainly be back when I might need the help again! Best experience for me and my little kitten!🩷🫶🏻

Last minute booking, dogs were happy, not sure they wanted to leave. She did great with updating me with pictures on how they were doing. Drop-off and pick-up is always quick. You can feel assured having her watch your dogs.

Alexandrea did an amazing job taking care of Gunner. She was able to understand his needs and gave him the treatment he needed to feel safe and comfortable with her. By the time I picked up my dog his tail was wagging and he didn’t want to leave Alexandrea’s house because he had so much fun lol. She even kept my dog an additional 2 hours because I was stuck in traffic.

Nikki & Ben were amazing to work with. They were my first experience boarding my baby through Rover, as I’ve always lucked out having friends available. They recognized the anxiety this can create and were committed to make sure I knew she was comfortable. I got photo updates daily and continually told how well she fit in and perfect she was. They were more than accommodating for pick up, including when I had to leave something over there and go back later to get it. They read her information booklet I sent with her and even did some of her training/tricks to keep her brain working. They were also honest of any negative things so that way I was aware in the future. They are going to be my new go-to on Rover without a doubt!
