1. Barbara M.

“Barbara was amazing with my dog and super flexible with my boarding dates and pickup and dropoff times- even when I changed things last minute. I greatly appreciated her updates with cute pictures of my furbaby. I felt very comfortable with her and the care she provided. I will definitely be rebooking when the need arises!”


2. Raegan S.

“Raegan was great! She was very responsive to communication and kept me up to date with fun pictures. I appreciated doing a "meet and greet" as this was our first stay. Our dog was obviously well loved and cared for while she was with Raegan and her family. Thank you!”


3. James V.

“We are so happy we found James, he was great with our malamute, has an amazing fenced yard, flexible with our schedule, and has great energy! Will be booking again soon for sure!”


4. Tonya V.

“Tonya took such great care of our puppy! She was able to help out last minute and was flexible when our travel arrangements changed. We loved getting pictures and updates as well.”


5. Gregory & Brittanie C.

“Rocky was SO well loved and care for at Gregory and Brittanie’s home. DEFINATELY will rebook with them for all future stays. They were very attentive to his particular lap needs!”


6. Evelyn G.

“Evelyn, her family, and her dogs were all great! I was worried about leaving my dog with a sitter but she kept me updated on how she was doing, along with sending a lot of pictures.”


7. Mandy T.

“I had Mandy board my dog for several times throughout this summer and she has been a super host for my Border Collie and I would trust her anytime to leave my dog with her. I will be using her services again on my next vacation.”




8. Mandee P.


“No joke... our future vacation schedule now revolves around Mandee's availability. I simply cannot say enough about her kindness & the personal touch she offers. From daily pictures of our dog, to messages letting us know how she was adjusting - we did not worry for one second about our dog while we were on vacation. We highly recommend Mandee (and her lovely family) if you are in need of doggie care for any length of time.”


9. Mike S.

“Great first Rover experience thanks to Mike. He was flexible with our schedule, great at communication and our dog did not want to leave his stay! We will be rebooking in the future.”


10. Michael G.

“Michael took such good care of my 4 month old puppy for the weekend. I got pic updates and he came home tired from a long weekend of playing non stop with his new friends.”


11. Desiree O.

“Top shelf folks! Everything you and your dog might hope for and more. Good people, dog friendly, super clean, nice neighborhood, clear prompt communication and a happy, healthy dog to greet me at the end of my journey. Thank you!!”


12. Sierra W.

“Sierra was excellent, very communicative, took lots of photos and clearly took good care of our dog. Our dog has a large emotional range, and we can always tell if he wasn’t in a good place. He came back normal, happy and balanced. Thank you very much Sierra!”


13. Leanne W.

“Leanne was great with our dog! We received lots of pictures and updates on how things were going. Our dog had slight separation anxiety but Leanne took him on a walk to help calm him. Leanne is a great host, super responsive, and we’d love to have our pup stay with her again!”


14. Pamela H.

“Always so amazing! We have left our puppy with Pamela more than once and always feel completely comfortable! We know our pup is in good hands and we can enjoy our trip! He has a great time too!”


15. Lauren H.

“Absolutely amazing, she went above and beyond to keep my puppy for a 4-day weekend! So nice, very knowledgeable about dogs and proper care, and sent me pictures every day of them on walks and hanging out together. She goes in depth with talking to you about keeping up with your schedules/routines you’ve set at your home along with making sure all vaccines, flea/tick, etc are up to date (which I really appreciated). My puppy is super shy of people at first but he warmed up to her so quickly (dogs know dog people!!) I will definitely have her keep him again, full trust!”


16. Whitney R.

“Moved to the area recently and needed a sitter for a few days. Found Whitney and she was very responsive to my questions and concerns. We were able to meet up quickly and things went very smoothly. She was very pleasant and her home was very well set up for pets. She sent me photos and updates as well throughout the days I was away. Overall, very happy with her care. Would recommend to anyone looking for a dog sitter. 10/10.”


17. Amanda T.

“We feel very comfortable leaving our two Chocolate Labs with Amanda. She is very comfortable and confident in handling large dogs. We felt she paid attention to any special needs we mentioned and took good care of our puppies. We will most definitely have her take care of our puppies again!”


18. Brittany S.

“Brittany was so easy to work with, great communicator and provided regular updates. Moxie had fun, but did come home with an upset tummy. That can happen in any boarding situation.”


19. Jonathan B.

“I’m new to the area and didn’t realize when booking just how far away they lived from us lol We will 100% be booking again though, even with the nearly hour drive It’s tough leaving your dog while you’re out of town but they made it so much easier, sending videos and photos of her having a great time. It was clear she was genuinely being cared for, not just somewhere with someone doing the minimum. Can’t recommend them enough”


20. Jordyn C.

“Jordyn was awesome with our little fur baby girl. Jordyn followed instructions that we had, and gave us daily text updates on her progress. We missed our fur baby while we were gone, but weren't worried because we knew she was in good hands. We will use Jordyn's services next time, whenever necessary. Thanks Jordyn!”
