“So happy to have our Ollie in a warm, inviting place. We went on vacation with peace of mind that our puppy was very well taken care. Clara sent us pictures and let us know how our guy was doing. Highly recommend !!!!!”


“We appreciate the pictures sent to us. We could tell from the pictures our dog was happy and content. We liked the at home environment and the care our dog received.”

“We were in a bind when our original sitter got sick right before we had to leave for my son’s wedding, and Stacy came through for us at the very last minute. She was absolutely wonderful with Sophie, so patient and kind. She sent updates and photos, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. I honestly couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. We’d definitely love to use her again in the future.”

“I was so happy with Luke and his wife! I was really nervous because my dog is HIGH energy and gets very anxious outside the house. Luke was very reassuring before the booking and I felt comfortable leaving my dog there. They were both very kind and accommodating when they found out Alvin wasn't the best with cats (he had never been around them before). I would love to have them watch him again.”

About: Im 63 years old. Had pets all my life. I will take care of them like they were my own. There care will be my top priority Im retired after 30 years. I just lost my dog after 16 years. I love all animals. Very healthy love to go for walks daily I live in a quiet subdivision on Scott lake. Very nice place to walk pets. we have nice trails. and place to swim if they like that. And a very comfy home.
“Amanda was absolutely amazing! This was the first time we have ever left our very anxious rescue overnight and Amanda was incredibly patient and compassionate and really went the extra mile to make sure she was cared for and comfortable. She was also incredibly communicative, sending us regular photo updates and responding quickly to all my texts. This was an incredibly stressful decision for us leaving our baby for the first time overnight but Amanda made it as easy as possible and we will 100% be turning to her first next time we go out town. 10/10 would recommend!”

“This was our first time using Rover. On very short notice we needed someone to take care our Golden Retriever Blu and found Summer. We loved the meet and greet with Summer and her dogs. Blu had fun staying with Summer and her dogs. Blu was happy when we picked her up. Summer was great with Blu and the frequent updates and photos helped put our minds at ease. Summer will be the first one we contact for future needs and highly recommend her.”

“Our dog was well cared for by Amber and Ryan. We came home from a trip to find a happy, tired boy! Thanks so much for all the attention you gave him and for keeping him safe!”

“My dog seemed to enjoy himself. Vanya sent multiple updates daily with pictures and videos. She was very accommodating to my schedule and I would thoroughly recommend her to anybody who was looking for dogboarding for doggy daycare.”

“Bradley was great with Miso! He sent a ton of pictures and made sure he was well taken care of. It was a somewhat last minute trip and we were grateful Miso had fun and a great yard to enjoy”
“Kari and her family did an absolutely fantastic job, taking care of Sebastian. Not only were her doggies and family great with him, I would rebook with them anytime I could! Definitely recommend them for anybody that needs a dog sitter! Thank you guys!!”

“Danielle was such a lifesaver for us when we went on a weeklong vacation! She was kind and understanding and obviously took great care of her Henry! Would highly recommend!”

“Janice helped us to take care of our dog during Christmas and New Year holidays, so we were able to take vacation. Every day Janice kept us posted about how our dog is doing and sent us his photos and videos. She took long walks with our baby, and he was glad to become a friend to Janice's dog. They played really good with each other.”

“Our golden retriever puppy (6 mths) was with Jeremiah for a number of days due to a sudden trip I had to take and everything went really well, Daisy came home happy out.”

“Kim was wonderful! Our pup had the best time staying with her family and playing with her own pup. Kim sent lots of photos and updates, and our pup came back happy, healthy, and exhausted from all the fun😊”

“OMG! They are the best care providers for my two pooches, Reign and Bali. They loved on Reign and Bali like they were their own furry babies. Thank you for keeping them groomed, playing with them, and taking them on walks!”

“Sydney is kind and clearly loves animals. She seemed attuned to our senior dog’s needs and was great at communicating with us while we were away. She made time for a meet & greet before we went away, and gave our dog time to get used to her space. Sydney is a patient and caring pet sitter!”
