Lisa and her husband were amazing. My Bijoux had such a wonderful time with them. Lisa sent the cutest pictures of Bijoux during her stay and I enjoyed the updates that really gave me such an enormous peace of mind that my pup was not only in great hands, but she was having a fun vacation of her own! I can’t recommend Lisa enough and without a doubt I will be having Bijoux stay over again! I’m sure Bijoux will be over the moon getting to see Lisa, her husband, and their dog Mac again, who she loved playing with too!

Shaelea is absolutely wonderful! Loki had the time of his life playing with all his new furry friends at her place. I so appreciated the frequent updates, photos, and videos she sent, it made being away much easier. I'll definitely be recommending her to all the dog parents out there. Thank you so much, Shaelea! :)

Kevin was absolutely wonderful with my sweet Terry. From the very first day, he kept in constant communication, sharing updates that truly put my heart at ease. It was clear that Terry was not just cared for, but genuinely loved and treated like family during the 9 days she stayed with him. I’m so grateful to have found Kevin through Rover, and I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to trust him with Terry again. Highly, highly recommended!

Melanie was amazing with my 2 dogs! She updated me everyday with pictures and their day in her home. My dogs seemed VERY happy and relaxed. I definitely will be booking her again when my job calls me to be out of state. It's such a relief to know that your precious kids are in good hands!

Our first time using Rover was with Casandra. We boarded our two pups for over a week with her. She was very flexible with pickup and drop off times, and she did an amazing job with sending updates and photos. I felt at ease knowing that our dogs were with someone who treated them like family. They looked so happy in every picture. I would highly recommend using Casandra for your pet watching needs!

Rebekah was absolutely wonderful with my dog! My dog is special needs and a nervous nelly about nearly everything. I was the typical nervous parent, leaving her with someone new for the first time. Poof settled in so fast, and Rebekah did a great job with all of her needs! Her dogs are friendly, and gave Poof some canine companionship while we were away. To be honest, I don’t think she missed us at all! Rebekah checked in, sent photos, and made me feel super safe leaving Poof in her hands. If I ever need a sitter again, I certainly know who I’m going to! ❤️

Maricela was awesome with easing in Sami into her home, giving her space to get used to the new environment. She sent pictures daily and was always incredibly responsive in both the inquiry and once booked. She accommodated our requests and was incredibly friendly. Definitely recommend Maricela if you are looking for someone that will treat your pet as their own!

She was wonderful and I already rebooked with her. I got updates and I know that my dogs were happy. Her kids also helped and loved them. It was like they were just visiting in another family. They weren’t just in crates for days. They were with the family.

I greatly appreciated Lisa‘s flexibility and availability and the attention she gave to our dog María while we were gone, including helping her through a thunderstorm. We met up beforehand, and Maria got along with her dogs as well. They seemed very relaxed and used to having other dogs around.

We went to do a meet and greet with Shea a few weeks before Maisy stayed with Sheas family. The house was well kept and everyone was very friendly and welcoming. We will be making arrangements with Shea in the future for additional stays with Shea and her family. I could tell that Maisy felt very comfortable with them by how well she ate her food while staying with them. I highly recommend giving Shea the opportunity to care for you pet.

Kevin is simply the best! We have known him for two years and he does a wonderful job every time. He is the type of person that all dogs love and can relax around. Kevin’s communication before, during, and after stays is awesome; I’m able to relax and know things are going well while we’re away. I’d recommend Kevin to anyone and everyone!
