“Rachelle was great with my puppy Luna! She sent pictures and videos every day my puppy was with her! I could tell by the videos Luna had a great time! I would totally recommend Rachelle!”


“I couldn’t be happier with Sarah’s care for Marvel during his Rover stay! From the moment I dropped him off, I knew he was in great hands. Sarah’s warm and loving personality instantly put both Marvel and me at ease. She kept me updated every day with fun pictures and little stories about what they were up to, which made me feel so connected even while I was away. When I picked Marvel up, he was so happy and full of energy—it was clear he’d been loved and well cared for. I highly recommend Sarah to anyone looking for a caring, responsible, and fun sitter. Marvel can’t wait for his next visit!”



“This was my first time using Dave. What a wonderful couple. I felt completely comfortable giving MiKi to him for four days. We had a meet and greet and MiKi took right to him. As soon as we got there she ran to him like she knew him. He is a great dog person. You can tell his wife and him really loves animals. I will definitely use them again!!”


“Great stay with Samantha and Zach! They were flexible , kept up with updates especially this stay being a first for marvel with the family. Samantha kept my mind at peace with updates of how he was doing and it ended up being a successful stay for all. Loved the updates of him playing with the kids and doing all the tricks. Marvel came home happy and tired.”


“Laura took great care of my dog Muffy. She sent me pictures and kept me updated on how Muffy was doing. Overall, a great experience. I will definitely use Laura again.”


“Jenna took such good care of our big fur babies for a night while we passed through St. Louis. Can’t say enough about the convenience and comfort knowing our doggies were happy and well taken care of! Highly recommend!”


“I boarded my dog with Stephanie for the first time and she was so kind and took such good care of my Bella. She sent her home smelling lovely had a pink bow on her collar and a holiday goodie bag!”


“Monica took exceptional care of our 5 year old Shorkie while we were out of town for a several days. Was a pleasure to work with and very helpful with the whole process when we had questions (this was our first time using Rover). Sent pictures periodically showing our dog happy, relaxed and content. We highly recommend Monica and plan to request her services the next time we need someone to care for our dog.”

About: Eric has been working with dogs since 2016, with over 5 years of professional experience in boarding, daycare, pet medication, and training. Throughout his career, he’s handled dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. His training journey began nearly a decade ago and continues to this day. From basic obedience to behavioral work, Eric brings a calm, confident presence that dogs naturally respond to. His background required constant awareness of canine body language, preventing conflicts before they happen, identifying signs of illness, and maintaining a safe, enriching environment. Morgan brings a lifetime of hands-on experience with animals, especially horses. Her work with horses has given her an exceptional sensitivity to animal behavior, expression, and energy — a skill that transfers seamlessly to dogs. She continues to ride and care for horses, and her gentle, observant nature helps even the most nervous pets feel at ease. Pet care is fully integrated into our daily lives. I (Eric) work from home on Mondays and Tuesdays, so the dogs have consistent company and supervision during those days. The rest of the week, before heading out, I care for dogs first thing in the morning—feeding, potty breaks, and any necessary training or structured time. I'm always home by around 4:30 in the afternoon to resume care, walks, playtime, and more. Morgan is home most mornings until about 9 or 10 during the week and is often able to return home quickly if needed. Between the two of us, there’s rarely a long stretch without someone here. While we’re both away, dogs are safely kenneled to ensure they stay secure and avoid getting into anything that could harm them. This routine keeps their day consistent, calm, and structured—something we find dogs thrive on. Our schedule gives us ample time to care for, engage, and provide training for each dog we welcome into our home. We care for dogs like they’re part of the family—with structure, play, and lots of love. Dogs are fed morning and evening, go out for regular potty breaks, and enjoy a mix of activities based on their energy level. High-energy pups can enjoy fetch (we’ve got a great hill and a long leash for it!), tug, or puzzle games for mental stimulation, while our daily walks help keep everyone balanced. When we’re briefly away, dogs are kenneled for safety. We love all breeds and personalities and tailor care to each dog’s needs.

“Renae is amazing! My dog stayed with her and her family for 3 weeks, and I only have great things to say about her. Her communication was on point, she was prepared for everything my dog needed and my dog had a lot of fun. I will definitely book her services next time I’m out of town.”



“Ziti had an excellent time with Erica! Erica was extremely kind and a pleasure to work with. She sent pics and some videos of Ziti throughout her stay. I'd highly recommend Erica... Took great care of Ziti!”


“I'm happy I met Sara and of course her and her family did a tremendous job with Frank. Of course she's great, she's on Rover. Right? So instead of a review in her spectacular care iof Frank, I'll review her as a person. I'm new to the dog world and am still learning every day. I rely on the help of strangers willing to give me advice. Months ago, Sara reminded me we had met in the pet aisle of a local store. She took time out of her day to give me some recommendations and advice. Any person willing to do that is an amazing human. I encounter several people weekly and ask questions about dogs. It's surprising how many people shrug their shoulders and walk away Sara isn't one of those Not only are you getting phenomenal pet care, you're getting a truly phenomenal human too. Thanks Sara!”


“Erica and her son were great caretakers of our Jack while we were on vacation! She is very accommodating and is obviously extremely experienced with four legged friends. Jack had a great time and we will definitely be back!”


“We are SO grateful that we found Bhairavi on Rover! Her and her family took amazing care of our dog, Frank. We received the perfect amount of updates during his stay and it was so clear he was well taken care of and so loved on. We couldn’t recommend her more and she will be the first person we contact for help with Frank moving forward!”


“Five stars! This was our first time leaving the dogs with someone in Rover. I was very nervous. The dogs loved Sherry and we will use her again in the future. She sends pictures with updates. Sherry is kind and understanding. Our little senior chihuahua has a lot of trust issues and doesn’t care for people, but he enjoyed Sherry’s company. Thank you Sherry for keeping our kiddos safe and happy!”


“Thank you so much for taking such good care of my Charlie. The frequent updates, photos, and videos helped so much to put my mind at ease. I’m so grateful for all you did to go above and beyond over a holiday weekend.”


“Adam and his wife were the some of most attentive dog watchers we have found through Rover! We will definitely use them again. The pictures they sent were priceless and our bigger dog had a blast playing with their dog in the backyard. We were a little worried they wouldn’t want to come home after the love and attention they received!”


“Melissa and her daughter are amazing. She is a great communicator throughout the entire process and took Abe, 105 pound lab in as her own. She accommodated my needs foe an early drop off and late pick up as well. Two thumbs up I will be using her again!”


“Overall good experience. Great communication and I can tell she cared. The only thing I would complain about is she gave him wet food without us knowing which possibly caused him to have diarrhea and he had solid poos before he was dropped off.”

Eric & Morgan B.
“Sometimes taking a vacation is stressful when you have pets. That is no longer a worry since we had Eric take care of Maggie while we were on our last vacation. We used to use a kennel but all of the noise seemed to stress Maggie out. Eric took great care of Maggie an sent pictures and updates daily. She didn't even want to come home!”

Adam took such great care of Bailey, including taking her for walks, giving her lots of toys to play with and playing fetch with her in the yard. She had such a good time! He sent pictures and videos every day, and was great to work with! We will definitely be bringing Bailey back. Highly recommend!!

Renae and her family were a perfect match for our dog, Mia! I felt comfortable from our first meeting and was not concerned about leaving Mia. It seemed Mia had a fun time with the entire family, including their dog,Charlie. I Would highly recommend Renae, and will definitely book with her again.
