“Emily was absolutely amazing! She agreed to our booking last-minute and was so friendly and welcoming when I dropped off the cats. She provided lots of pictures and videos and gave great updates of our kitties! She was definitely knowledgeable about cats and was very comfortable handling the two different personality types of our cats. She also has a beautiful home with lots of space for your pets to roam around! I HIGHLY recommend to board your pets with Emily! She is worth every penny! So much better than boarding your pets at a vets office! Thank you so much again!!”
“Mo and family have been wonderful with Gigi. She sent me daily updates, photos and videos which made me have that peace of mind that you want when you are away from your fur baby. Gigi loves being at MO’s and will definitely ask her to keep Gigi again on my upcoming trips! Thank you Mo!”
“This was my first time leaving Oakley with someone and I was really nervous. Erin gave tons of updates and put my mind at ease! Oakley loves going to see her now. I’ll only ever be booking with her in the future.”
“I'm usually pretty anxious about leaving our dogs with a sitter, but I had a great feeling about Karrie, which turned out to be correct. I could see a lot of dog smiles in the pictures she sent, which isn't always the case. Communication was excellent and she was really easy to work with. I don't know how this could have been a better experience for any of us; we'll definitely be using Karrie again for future trips!”
“First time boarding and was very nervous but Angela was amazing and totally reassured me!!! she took wonderful care of my kitty and sent me little texts and pictures throughout the stay! would 100% book again and would definitely recommend her!”
“Elizabeth and Christopher were great with our dog Bailey. I got a good feeling about them and their home as soon as I dropped Bailey off. They sent pictures and updates and Bailey was well taken care of. Would definitely use them again if available x”
“Brittney and Adam are so wonderful with our older dog. This is the 3rd time they’ve watched Addy and I know she is so loved and well cared for each time. Really appreciate their attention and updates on how she’s doing.”
“So happy to have found Gina! She took fantastic care of our 85 pound big boy, sent lots of pictures to reassure us since it was his first time staying with her, and we so appreciated her availability for a spontaneous trip!”
“This was our first time using Rover to board our dogs for a weekend at the lake. We were very pleased with Nate and his communication. Would definitely board our dogs with Nate again. Thank you!”
“Super nice and able to accommodate my dog on short notice. My dog definitely had a blast and instantly made himself at home, playing with their dogs and getting cozy.”
“Luke was great again with the dogs! He has so much patience with them and they had a great time! No need to worry about your pups when they are with Luke, they are well taken care of. He is so easy to work with, we are so happy to have found him! This was there 2nd visit, and it was just so easy and smooth. Dogs had a wonderful time!”
“Going on vacation and having to leave your fur-baby is not easy, but Allen made it feel super easy and he is a great sitter. Candy had a great time and played with a lot of the other dogs that were boarded during her stay and made a ton of friends! We received daily updates, photos and videos which lefts us confortable and allowed us to enjoy our trip. Would definitely let Candy with Allen and his wife next time! Thanks for taking care of our little baby and happy new year 🩷”
“Nicole and her family were amazing and went above and beyond when caring for our dog Macy! She has a huge backyard for Macy and her dogs to run and play! Nicole communicated quickly even on the holiday. Highly recommend Nicole!!”
“Griffin sent so many pictures and videos, it helped us be able to relax on vacation knowing our lil guy was in good hands. Communication was excellent and his little puppy was super friendly. Would definitely recommend!”
“Shelly has a great understanding of husky mixes, which made me feel very confident and comfortable choosing them as a sitter. They went above and beyond to ensure my boy had a happy stay and I will definitely be re-booking in the future”
“We had such a great experience with Dana! She was super dependable and easy to communicate with the whole time. We tossed a few curveballs her way, like meds and the fact that Dante is a newly adopted shelter dog with limited history, and she handled it all with total flexibility and care. Her place is such a great setup for dogs, and her two pups are so sweet and well-behaved. Dante clearly had an awesome time and came home happy. Would definitely recommend Dana to anyone looking for a great sitter!”
“Lauren was fantastic with Bigs ! Bigs is a 3 year old German shorthair with tons of energy. She let him run around her backyard and he had a great time playing with her dog! She was also very accommodating during pick up and Bigs had a great time. Would definitely recommend her to anyone who is looking for a safe place to board! She also gave me updates while I was away and I really appreciated that!”

Gardner dog parents share their Rover experiences
Natalia was amazing with Beau! She was very communicative throughout his stay and kept us updated, which gave us a lot of peace of mind while we were away. She also sent pictures, and it was clear Beau was being well taken care of. We ended up needing to extend his stay because we had to stay with family longer than expected, and Natalia was very understanding, flexible, and accommodating. We really appreciated her kindness, communication, and the care she gave Beau. I would definitely recommend Natalia to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to watch their dog!
