“Lee is incredible! We boarded our dog Mochi with her for two weeks while we traveled, and Lee took wonderful care of her. Mochi can be nervous around new people and dogs, and Lee made sure she was comfortable and safe in her care. Lee is also super communicative and responsive, and easy to work with. Would definitely recommend her!”
“Thank you Megan & Jenny! I needed to board my dog for one night with short notice and Megan & Jenny were able to board him. They responded quickly to my request and communicated with texts and photos during my dog's stay. My dog looked happy and it seems like he was well cared for. I will be contacting Megan & Jenny again for dog sitting and boarding.”
“Leaving our pup Koda with Jeff and Beth always feels good. It’s our second time boarding with them and Koda seems to get so loved up and cared for by them and their sweet kids. We LOVE all of their updates and photos, they’re the best! And we were super grateful they were flexible to extend Koda’s stay one extra night. All in all such a good experience and I’m sure Koda is looking forward to going back! Thanks Jeff and Beth!”
“Anna and Jason were so great with my dog Warren while I was away for the holidays! They gave great updates each and every day to let me know how Warren was doing. They kept Warren very active and I could tell that he felt right at home! Also, Anna and Jason’s dog Lucky was an added bonus, since Lucky and Warren became fast friends and played together often.”
“Alexandra was an incredible pet sitter for my almost 3-year-old mini bull terrier. Alexandra is a clear communicator, proactive, kind, responsible, attentive, and loves animals. My dog stayed with Alexandra and her two kiddos for 5 days/nights, and I was able to fully enjoy my vacation because of Alexandra's excellent communication. She kept me updated and texted me each day before I had a chance to worry about anything (after all, she was caring for my fur baby!). I felt at ease knowing that my pup was in loving and attentive hands, and I could text any time I felt the need. My dog is super friendly and also has some behavior quirks. She can get overexcited, and Alexandra had no problem following all the care instructions. She noticed my dog's comfort or discomfort and ensured she got what she needed. When I picked up my pup, she was quite content and even gave Alexandra a little lick goodbye, which told me even more about the care Alexandra and her family gave my little one. So many thanks, and I will definitely book again!!”
“Chad provided a great sit for my 2 dogs. They were clearly well cared for. Between the two of them, they need a lot of meds and Chad willingly dispensed them. They'll be back! Thanks, Chad.”
“Kristen and Ryan were very welcoming of our pup! They were understanding of her nuances and helped her adjust to a new environment fast. They have a nice spacious home with a big backyard that our dog loved relaxing in. Kristen and Ryan were very communicative throughout the stay and sent daily updates with photos. 100% recommend!”
“Astrid and her family took such good care of my puppy! My puppy was very comfortable and happy staying with her and her family. She is knowledgeable, kind, and sent updates throughout his stay. Highly recommended her! Will be booking with her again. Thanks, Astrid!”
“Awesome as always...our doggies love her yard and are happy when we pick them up.. Suzanne sends a daily picture or two so that we’re never out of touch... highly recommended”
“Emerson is a great dog sitter! Very attentive and sends updates while you are away. Great back concrete patio for dogs to play and a park trail nearby where they go on lots of walks. Highly recommend especially if your dog likes other dogs.”
“Nala was so excited to meet Kim she ran up to her and into her house! Appreciated Kim’s updates and photos throughout the stay, and it looked like Nala had a good time there.”
“They are friendly and flexible with our schedule. They took good care of our super energetic dog, making him comfortable and happy. Definitely will come back again.”
“I was out of town for 6 nights, and Juliana and Katherine took amazing care of my dog, Pippi. They went above and beyond—taking her to different dog parks, on neighborhood walks, and making sure she felt right at home. I loved receiving the updates and great photos of her playing in the parks and relaxing in their dog-friendly backyard. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was in such caring hands. Highly recommend them!”
“Dvora took such amazing care of my dog, June. Dvora took June on multiple walks per day (including off-leash trail walks!), sent multiple photo and email updates, and took care of June as if she were her own dog. I felt so at ease leaving June with Dvora, and it made my time away much easier knowing that June was getting so much love. When I went to pick June up she was excited to see me, but definitely sad about leaving Dvora and her home. I highly recommend Dvora for anyone who wants their dog to receive lots of walk, attention, and stay in a loving home. ”
“I had an excellent experience with this dog sitter caring for my elderly dog. They ensured that all of my dog’s needs were met — from medication management to gentle exercise and plenty of love. Their regular updates gave me peace of mind. I highly recommend their services to anyone looking for high-quality, caring support for their senior pet.”
“Chawntea is amazing! Bear was well taken care of and she sent many pictures and videos of him so I could see how much fun he was having. Definitely recommend!”

Highland dog parents share their Rover experiences
Suzanne took care of Noamie, our elder Cavalier King Charles, with care, intention, and deep attention to detail. Noamie was very well taken care of, and he enjoyed the wide open garden space, the bird songs, and the freedom to just, well, be. We are beyond satisfied with the care he received from Suzanne, who was very responsive, very knowledgeable, and very well resourced!
Baxter had a great stay with Kim and her crew of pups! Kim provided regular updates with helpful details on how Baxter was doing, which put my mind at ease since it was his first stay there. He got lots of play time and enjoyed the backyard/garden. Kim is always friendly in her communications. I'd love for Baxter to stay with Kim again!
We had another great experience with Megan! From the moment we booked, communication was fantastic—quick responses, clear updates, and plenty of adorable pictures that made us feel at ease while we were away. Our pup came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved. It’s obvious Megan treated our dog like family, and we really appreciate the extra care and attention. We’ll definitely be booking again in the future!
Zach sent photos of my minnie Aussie, Blu, each day of his stay, and took him on walks daily. I appreciated Zach checking in to ask questions. Blu was in great spirit when I picked him on the last day as well. Hopefully Blu was manageable as he is very vocal. Would highly recommend Zach!
I couldn’t be happier with the care Koko received from Miki. She helped me to pickup my rescue dog from the shelter. The situation it’s very difficult for me when I am living out of state. It was very clear how kind, responsible, and genuinely loving she is with animals. She kept me updated with photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind while waiting for someone transport Koko back to AZ. I’m so grateful to have found someone I trust completely. Highly highly recommend!
Jeffrey and Robert are ideal caregivers for our dog Chase! They are reliable, attentive, communicative and warm with pups and humans alike. When we’re on one of our human breaks, it’s wonderful to know Chase is having his own spa-time at their idyllic doggie villa, lounging in their gorgeous, expansive yard or being taken on multiple daily walks around town. I also really appreciate that they’ve come through for me at the last minute when I’ve suddenly needed a sitter. You can’t go wrong with this wonderful pair of dog-lovers. Happy repeat customer here!
