“Andy boarded our two boys for a night and was very responsive, keeping us updated with pictures, and playing with them. Our dogs got along great with his dog Luna. When our dogs had behavioral problems Andy was honest and understanding about it. I trusted him completely to take good care of them. They seemed relaxed and happy to have been there.”
“Shuling was a fantastic and attentive sitter to our dog while we were out of town. We got regular updates about his care with photos and videos, and she made sure he was comfortable and happy during his stay!”
“Michelle did a great job with our puppy, Indy. She sent us pictures of Indy being welcomed as part of her family on a daily basis. It’s reassuring to know that your fur baby is being so well cared for. And it’s so nice to not have to worry one bit while we were away. Thanks again Michelle!!”

“Shelby was really great - she was flexible as my plans changed a bit and took Elmer to the park multiple times throughout his stay with her. He wasn’t anxious at all when I picked him up - always a sign he had a great weekend. Will definitely book with Shelby again!”

Loving Pet Care from an Experienced Pet Parent: As a dedicated pet parent, I bring a wealth of personal experience in caring for my own pets, ensuring they receive the love and attention they deserve. My approach to puppy care is rooted in the same compassion and dedication I have always shown to my furry family members. From understanding their unique needs and preferences to providing a safe and nurturing environment, I treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether it's playtime, feeding, or simply offering a comforting presence, I am committed to making sure your pet feels at home and well-cared for in your absence. Working part-time from home allows me to seamlessly integrate pet care into my daily routine. Although I don't have any pets now with me, throughout my life I took regular breaks to check on them, provide meals, and engage in short play sessions. In the afternoon, I used to schedule a longer walk or playtime, and I dedicated time to more extended activities like training sessions, grooming, or simply spending quality time with the pets. This balance ensured my pets received consistent attention and care, making them feel secure and loved, while also enhancing my own well-being. 🐾 When cared for pets in my home, I ensured they had a safe, comfortable, and stimulating environment, with plenty of playtime, exercise, and affection throughout the day. I followed their specific routines, including feeding schedules, medication, and any special needs they may have. My goal is to create a stress-free and loving experience for every pet. 🐾
“This is our third time having Jenna watch our pups in our home. She does a wonderful job of keeping them safe and sharing photos with us each day. She also takes very good care of our home and leaves it very clean and tidy after her stay. I will continue to book Jenna as I know she is responsible, caring and communicative when it comes to my pups. Thanks Jenna!”
“Diana completely spoiled my pup! Absolutely wonderful. She sent tons of photos of my dog frolicking on the beach and running around her big backyard. She came home rested and recharged like she had been on a five star vacay. Happy pup, happy mom!”
“Katelyn was really excellent and accommodating for our puppy’s needs. She was vigilant about potty time and gave us multiple updates while we were away for a wedding. She was welcoming and helped us feel secure, especially for one of our first times using this type of service. Definitely recommend!”
“The sign of a good visit by your dog is when he falls asleep on the car ride home. Ann and her family could not have been more welcoming of my dog and more tolerant of his initial uneasiness around new people. From all of the photos I was sent, I could see him having so much fun with their dog and also napping alongside -- and at times on -- their family.”
“Esteban had a fabulous time. I got pictures and updates from Alie everyday. Her dog was very friendly and easy for Esteban to get along with. The best part is peace of mind - I didn't have to worry at all during my trip. I knew he was in good hands with Alie. I will definitely book in the future.”

Hillsmere Shores dog parents share their Rover experiences
Everything went well with Gingerbread's first visit with Jenna. Jenna sent us daily updates and answered text messages quickly. She was punctual and kind and even let us visit before our actual booking so Gingerbread, me, and the kiddo would have an idea of where she would be spending her time.
I cannot say enough great things about Amy! She took such wonderful care of my senior dog, Kylie, and truly made the experience stress-free for both of us. From the start, Amy was incredibly accommodating—her home was clean, welcoming, and perfectly set up for an older dog who needs a bit more comfort and calm. What really stood out was how sensitive and attentive she was to Kylie’s needs. She understood the slower pace and extra care an older dog requires, and I could tell Kylie felt safe and loved in her care. As someone who can get a bit anxious leaving my dog behind, Amy completely put my mind at ease. She sent me daily updates along with the sweetest photos of Kylie looking happy and relaxed. Knowing my dog was in such good hands made all the difference. I highly recommend Amy to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog sitter—especially if you have a senior pup who needs that extra bit of attention.
Julia was wonderful! We left our doodle with her over the weekend and she seemed to have had a great time. Julia sent us multiple updates throughout the day with multiple pictures as well! Pick up, drop off, and communication went smoothly. We would definitely trust her to host our doggo again!
Sarah and her family were wonderful! She provided frequent updates on our pup and provided a loving and caring environment for him for the 4.5 days he was with them for boarding. They provided plenty of exercise and interaction and he was a happy boy when we came to pick him up. Would absolutely recommend them to others and will look them up again in the future. 🙂
Alina was great! I got lots of pictures of Giles and he had such a fun playing with her pups. She already had a crate, so I brought in some blankets and a stuffie for him. She was also super flexible with times, which was wonderful. Her place looks perfect for doggies to play in and I am happy we used her to take care of Giles.
Makhayla did an amazing job!! It was my first time letting anyone watch my fur baby other than family so I was very nervous. She send pictures/ videos very often, she took him on field trips, and even bought him a toy! My fur baby loved her and had a ball! I will be using Makhayla in the future and would recommend to anyone!
Elaine did really an amazing job at taking care of our dog Kala during our extended vacation. She took extra efforts to prepare special food and sent frequent updates and pictures! Elaine will be our first choice when considering any future boarding needs. Thanks Elaine!
Sofia is the best! She is so calm and kind, and takes special care of my dogs. She is quick to respond to any texts, and keeps me updated with pics and videos. This is my second time hiring her, and I will continue to do so! My dogs perk up so happily when I let them know that they will be seeing Sofia.
Michaela went absolutely above and beyond in taking care of our Prince. She provided lots of updates and pictures. I had no doubts he was receiving the best care all weekend. Bonus points because she has two fur friends for Prince to play with!! Prince came back super happy
Margriet was such a blessing for us and our cattle dog. Murphy has a lot of needs and considerations that require extra attention and care from sitters. It can be really really hard for us to find a sitter that follows our instructions and is willing to be patient with Murphy. I didn’t have to worry a single second about Murphy while she was with Margriet. She took such good care of our girl and we will definitely be returning customers! Thank you so much!
