“Best host ever! Isabel truly cared for my little guy, she kept me informed, she sent amazing photos, she has a great eye for Photography. You can tell she truly loves dogs. Hands down my best experience with Rover. My little guy is an old Chihuahua, very set on his manners and Isabel was able to handle him like a champ. I will be definitely using her service again. The peace of mins when you are out and about its priceless.”

Alexandria’s communication was amazing, she was incredibly caring and sent tons of pictures throughout the stay. Her dogs got along great with Hamilton and welcomed him into their home without any issues. She was also very flexible with pickup and drop-off times, which we really appreciated. We look forward to booking again!

Amanda made the entire boarding process effortless and convenient for our family. We appreciated the option to have our dogs go to her house, in her environment, for a visit to see how they would acclimate to her space, which was open and inviting for our dogs. During the boarding, Amanda sent daily photo and text updates, which was so kind! We felt our dogs were well cared for and that their routines were maintained in our absence. We’re so grateful for Amanda’s excellent care!

Kelsea was incredible. She was fully willing to take my GSD and CBR last minute even though she hadn’t met them yet (probably because they were trained/e-collar). It was clear through the numerous pictures I received that they were well taken care of. She even ran retriever drills with my CBR while I was away. I couldn’t recommend her enough. Thanks again Kelsea!

We had a such a great experience with Joel! I can’t say enough good things. Our booking was a bit last minute, as we debated on what to do with our rescue pup, Pixie, while when we went away. She had never been away from home since adopting her from the shelter, and we were worried about how she would respond to a new person/environment. Booking with Joel was the best decision we made! Joel took care of Pixie like she was his own. He was incredibly attentive to her needs and took time to learn and understand some of her more quirky behaviors. He played with her a ton, gave her all the attention she needed, and even provided a spot in his lap for her little 50lb self to cuddle up. He updated us routinely on how she was doing, including pictures, and it was clear she was in good hands. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for Nora! She took great care of her over the weekend and kept me updated with messages and adorable photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. Drop-off and pick-up were super easy, and everything went smoothly from start to finish. Nora seemed happy and well cared for, and I could tell she was in good hands. I’ll definitely be using her again in the future, highly recommend!

Kailey took great care of our dog Perch while we were out of town for our anniversary! Our dog was recovering from a small injury and Kailey was great about sticking to the food and medication schedule. Perch got along great with her two dogs as well, and Kailey made sure that she had fun but did not overextend herself. Thanks Kailey for taking such good care of our fur baby!
