“This is the first time my girls have stayed with someone that had other dogs for an extended period, 4 nights. Since it was Thanksgiving there were 4 boarders and their two dogs. At first I think they were a little apprehensive but as the time went on they got more comfortable and started to play and run in the outdoor enclosure. Nancy sent a text with a photo everyday and we were excited to see that they were doing fine and eating well. Even though the girls were a little outside of their element they did seem to enjoy their stay and Nancy and Jay are very nice.”


“James and Aimee have a really cute and practical set up and look to feel very comfortable with dogs. We left our two dogs with them over a weekend and felt assured that the dogs would be okay. James and Aimee offered updates throughout the weekend and helped us feel that everything was okay. Our dogs looked happy when we picked them up. We would recommend them and look to work with them for future needs. Thank you!”


“I highly recommend this Rover provider! Such a beautiful home and family. My sweet dog was well loved and taken care of. He came home looking and smelling better than ever. This was the longest trip I've taken away from my buddy, and I was so grateful to get lots of pictures and have the knowing he was safe and good. I am definitely planning on coming back next time I need to fly out for a trip.”


“This was our first time leaving our pup “away from home “ and we were a bit concerned how things would go. We couldn’t have been more pleased with the care and attention Katie and Jeremy provided. Katie gave us multiple updates each day and sent several photos and videos highlighting just how much fun our girl was having. We will definitely have them watch our girl in the future.”


“I HIGHLY recommend Maria and Jose!! They took excellent care of my little morkie and treated her as one of their family. I really appreciated their regular updates and when my flight was delayed, they were very accommodating. I feel so fortunate to have found them and will definitely use them again!”


“I’ve used a number of Rover hosts over the years, and I have to say that Dee has been the best. She unquestionably cared for my dog. She kept me updated with how his stay was going, and we had a blast at Dollywood without concern for my dog (who has major separation anxiety).”


“Lisa was fantastic. My dogs loved her and her husband. She kept me updated regularly the entire time with lots of pics. It made me feel good that the dogs had someone taking such good care of them. Thank you so much Lisa.”



“Ann was always available when I needed reassurance that Izzy was ok. First time ever boarding my puppy and she warmed up fast to Ann. Will definitely use her again!”


“Gibbs had his third stay with Ryan and his family, which was an overnight visit this time. I received photos of him having a great time and being pampered. I will certainly keep leaving Gibbs with Ryan and his family whenever I need to be away.”


“Cassie and her family are so great with Grainger. They treat him as one of their own. He’s always excited to go to their home. So glad we found them for when we go away.”


“Jeff and Shirley are the BEST!!! They are an incredibly awesome couple whose love for animals is very obvious and sincere. They took such tender loving care of our “babies” (Tilly, Bella, and Sophia) while we were out of state and sent us daily pictures and updates of them. It was a joy and a relief to see how well cared and happy they were in their new home. We especially loved the pictures of how our “babies” would snuggle up to them when they were sitting on the couch watching TV or drinking coffee. We admit we were bit apprehensive about leaving our “babies” with strangers, but we couldn’t have asked for a more wonderful experience. We definitely plan on using Jeff and Shirley whenever we leave town in future and hope other people reading this review will do the same. You won’t regret leaving your “babies” with them. Your “babies” will love Uncle Jeff and Aunt Shirley as much as our “babies" do. Jeff and Shirley – You Rock!!!!!”


“Jessica and her dogs welcomed my dog into their home and treated her like one of their own. It gave me such peace of mind while I was away to know that Shadow was getting so much love while I was out of town. I will definitely book with Jessica again!”


“They were great with my pup! We arranged to meet before they watched her so she could meet their dog and children and them before her stay. They took great care of her and provided regular updates and photos. She came back happy and sleepy after her mini vacation”


“Just what Izzy needed. Danielle is a pro and understands little dogs. She kept me assured that Izzy had not succumbed to a nervous breakdown. When I picked Izzy up, she looked wistfully at Danielle as we departed. Apparently, they had a very good time.”


“Stefanie was absolutely wonderful with my Lexi!!! She stayed in contact with us and was very flexible on times to drop off and pick up!! We loved the pictures and updates we would get daily! Lexi will definitely be back”


“Samantha did a wonderful job! My kids came home happy and healthy, and so tired! The environment was a healthy and interesting one for my Bassett hounds who love to smell and explore! Samantha gave me daily updates and allowed me to enjoy my vacation knowing my fur babies were enjoying their too!”
