“Honestly, Lee was made for this. She spoiled our dogs like crazy. They were unsure when they first arrived, but by the end of it, they were sleeping in her bed, cuddling, and offering kisses. We kept joking that our dogs were at "Dogchella" because they got to hang out under a cabana, sunbathe, and hang with their new cute friends - as per the daily photo updates. My girl dog usually tries to nip at me when I pick her up from a boarding session (just to express her resentment for being abandoned for a few days - very dramatic but I feel her) and this is the first time she didn't do that. They were sooo calm and tired from all the play when we picked them up. Literally no notes - thank you Lee :)”


“Alex kept my golden retriever for a week and left me feeling GREAT about the boarding. From the daily pix & videos, it seemed that Alex integrated Mika into her family life completely, even having her at their backyard easter egg hunt! Mika got lots of play time & tons of petting, played with her daughters at the playground across the street, and did her napping right under Alex's feet when she was working. Such a great feeling to know your dog is well cared for when away. Thanks so much Alex!”


“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!”


“Andrea is wonderful! She’s so kind and caring with my little dog. He wasn’t feeling 100% when I dropped him off. She took extra good care of him, made sure he got plenty of rest, and sent me lots of updates and photos. Excellent experience and I will definitely call on her again. Thanks!!!”


“Kelly is the best sitter ever! My spoiled, high energy Yorkie is treated like the prince that he thinks he is when staying at Kelly’s house. He gets lots of attention, special treats, individual playtime, and has a lot of fun. I highly recommend Kelly.”


“Isaac and Jordan were fantastic! I have a very old dog and they took great care of him and provided photos every day that they had him. Would recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable loving dog sitter!”


“Lily and her husband were amazing with Bugsy. They kept us informed daily on updates. Bugsy got emotionally attached to them. They even tried to teach him new tricks! Will definitely recommend them and be back in the future!”


“Melina was our first Rover experience and she made the process so welcoming. We'd never left our dog overnight with someone he didn't know – he's anxious, reactive and has separation anxiety, so it was important to us that we worked with with someone who understands and is patient with him. Melina was all of that and more! Within hours she had him snuggling up to her, and by the evening he was sleeping curled up next to her head. We got regular updates throughout the stay (including pictures) and felt so at-ease knowing he was well cared for. We would absolutely recommend Melina as a Rover, and especially for anyone with a special needs dog or a shy pup. She was amazing!”


“Rachel is a terrific dog sitter! She is very responsive and communicative, and my dog had a great time with her and her dog. I appreciated the photos and videos of their beautiful hikes and play time.”


“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!”


“Hy and Arlo are very warm people and they took excellent care of my dog Kushi. Being a senior dog, they followed all the care instructions and also offered to prepare meals for her. They were very prompt in communication and sent daily updates too. I highly recommend their services.”


“My pup had such a good time with Karen and her family :) I was given daily updates / photos, and could tell she was comfortable and at ease with them. Would definitely recommend Karen !!!”


“Valarie was accommodating and ready to customize care for our pet to make her feel at home. We were even able to make weird timing work since Valarie stays up late. Valarie also provided updates while we were away and I feel confident our pet was well taken care of. I will use her again!”


“Vanessa was so kind and careful with our pup Gumbo! We were extra nervous because we had to leave him with her for two weeks while he recovered from an injury. Following our vet’s instructions, she gave him his meds, restricted his activity, carried him up and down the stairs, and provided so much loving care. And she sent us lots of updates! Her pup Robin is so sweet too. We’re looking forward to Gumbo’s next stay with them.”


“Alexis provided excellent daycare for Roxer today. She kept him engaged and active, sent cute photo updates throughout the day, and he came home tired and happy. Roxer most definitely enjoyed his time and I will definitely use Alexis again for daycare needs!”


“Scarlet watched our dog Leo for a long weekend and was a great sitter! Was very responsive, easy to set up a meet and greet, and her own dog was super friendly and a great play companion for Leo. Everything was smooth and easy!”


“Chad was an excellent host. He has a welcoming house and yard. He keeps the number of dogs small so it's manageable for all involved. I got daily updates from him including pictures. Would recommend.”



“This was Rocco's second stay with Jeff and family. He recognized where we were as soon as we started walking to the door and got really excited. They are so great with Rocco, give him lots of attention, take him on off-leash walks, and generally spoil him. We are already planning his next stay.”

Highland Terrace dog parents share their Rover experiences
Inkoo was absolutely wonderful! She took amazing care of our dog Pancho—sending us daily updates with multiple photos and thoughtful notes that really put our minds at ease while we were away. She communicated clearly and consistently, and it was clear from the pictures that Pancho was happy, well cared for, and having a great time—especially at the dog parks she took him to! Inkoo is warm, reliable, and incredibly detail-oriented. We’re so grateful to have found her and will definitely consider her again for any future pet sitting needs.

I decided to look for someone local to care for my fur baby, Meila, while I went away for the weekend. I realized it was a last minute request so I was not expecting to be as lucky as I was to find someone who lived close by and had availability. During Meila's stay Valarie kept me very informed and shared a number of photos which allowed me to feel I made a good choice.

I am grateful I found these two wonderful people. I am always nervous dropping off my dog at a boarders house especially considering I had no way of meeting them before hand due to travel. Walking through the double gates I felt better. The yard is well maintained and I did not observe any immediate dangers. Dizzy was a bit nervous but all of the pictures I was sent made me feel so much better. When I picked my boy up he was obviously excited to see me but there was no anxiety. I will always use their services when available Thank you both so much.

Lee was very hands on and helpful keeping us aware of daily routines, which was good with a former shelter pup and a nervous first time dog owner. Dogs in Lee's care are obviously a top priority, and her approach made me confident that my doggie was in good hands. We will definitely be back when we need help again!

Vanessa was so kind and careful with our pup Gumbo! We were extra nervous because we had to leave him with her for two weeks while he recovered from an injury. Following our vet’s instructions, she gave him his meds, restricted his activity, carried him up and down the stairs, and provided so much loving care. And she sent us lots of updates! Her pup Robin is so sweet too. We’re looking forward to Gumbo’s next stay with them.

I can’t say enough great things about Xiajun! They took such amazing care of my dog while I was away—keeping him well-fed, walked, and most importantly, happy. Their flexibility was a huge help with my unpredictable schedule, and they were incredibly considerate, always checking in and making sure my pup’s needs came first. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in such caring hands. Highly recommend Xiajun to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate pet sitter!

My dog Winston had a lovely stay with Tiffany & Lauren! Winston is a bit of a grumpy old man and a real couch potato, and he got along really well with their dog Guapa. I wanted him to have a mellow place to stay while I was away, and their place was the perfect getaway. They sent some pictures of him throughout the stay, which I really loved!

Ingrid was an excellent sitter for our dog, Kip. We are so lucky to have found her. Ingrid (and her partner Vini) sent photos almost every day, and kept us up to date on how Kip was doing. We felt so reassured that he was being well looked after. I wouldn't hesitate to ask Ingrid to look after Kip again!
