“Melissa took excellent care of my pups. She is flexible, communicative, and very attentive and patient with my dogs. Melissa sent daily updates with photos and videos which we loved to see. She has two sweet pups that my dogs got along great with and loved playing with during their stay at her house. They also loved playing in her big fenced in yard. They came home happy and exhausted! We highly recommend Melissa for pet sitting/boarding! Thank you, Melissa!”

“Ashlyn was amazing! My pup is really high energy and a lot sometimes. This was my first time leaving him. She sent me pictures the whole time and kept me updated. I was not worried about him at all!”

“This was our first time leaving our 8 month old pup Ash for this length of time. Jennifer and her family took such great care of him. We really appreciated all the text and photo updates. Made it easy to relax on vacation knowing he was well taken care of. We will certainly use Jennifer again. Thank you for everything!”

“She was amazing with my babies. Constantly updating me on them, and loving them like her own. She went above and beyond with taking care of them and making sure my girl didn’t loose her lamby even repairing lamby for us.”

“Patty was fabulous. She picked Tilly up and returned her to my location. I was working out of my home town. Tilly was a happy girl when she came back. She got to play with Patty's little dogs. I would use her again w/o hesitation.”

“We had to unexpectedly go out of town and booked our dog’s stay through Rover after many years. It was very assuring that brie seemed to have a good time with Michelle and Tom. They were very understanding to Brie’s anxiety issues and very accommodating to Her dietary needs. Thank you Michelle, we will Surely keep brie with you when we go out.”


“I cannot say enough about Vivian and her whole family! We were afraid that our dog would not want to come back home after staying with them. They treated our dog as if she was their own dog. Our dog does not warm up to people very well but had no trouble warming up to Vivian's whole family. I found Vivian by another person who had also used her and could not say enough about her. Our dog will never stay anywhere else!”

“Our dog seemed comfortable overall. We didn’t receive the daily updates we had agreed on, but the photos we did get showed him looking happy and relaxed. We also weren’t told ahead of time that additional dogs would be fostered during his stay, and we only learned about that after boarding had already begun. Fortunately, everything went smoothly despite the surprise. Overall, our dog was safe and seemed to enjoy himself, which is what matters most.”

“Robert and Kaitlin were AMAZING. They sent us updates and pictures every day, their pups are super sweet and were great with both our dogs, and my girls had a WONDERFUL time. I will 100% use them again. Your fur babies will be safe and happy with them.”

“Ann was so amazing! She took our puppy swimming and made sure to send us pictures and videos. I definitely recommend her to watch anyone’s pup. And she’s overall such a good hearted woman!”

“I am so thankful for Summer and Daniel! We booked them slightly last minute. We originally planned on boarding our dog at a local kennel but knew she would be overly anxious being there. So we reached out to Summer and Daniel who thankfully had the availability. After a meet and greet, we knew it would be a great fit! They are very responsible and were very understanding of some of the restrictions my dog had. Summer sent videos and photos of our dog with theirs and she seemed to have the time of her life! I was worried she wouldn’t want to come home after seeing how much fun she was having. I would most certainly board with them again after seeing what great care they gave my dog!”

“Beatriz was absolutely amazing! My dog Athena had the best weekend with her, she sent plenty of amazing pictures and Athena looked so happy and was wagging her tail in every one. She also made Athena the cutest bandana and sent us home with her favorite treats! If I could give her 10 stars I would, I’m so happy I was able to trust that my dog would be well taken care of and loved while we were away, we will definitely be using her again and highly recommend her to everyone!”

About: I’ve grown up with animals and have ALWAYS had a special place in my heart for them. I have worked in boarding facilities for dogs and cats and currently have 2 overly spoiled dogs I try to take everywhere with me, and 1 cat who runs the household. I know how hard it is to leave them behind and always be sure they are in the best, most loving care possible. I have work from home capability to tend to your best friend 24/7! No amount of potty breaks are too many and there are no time restrictions on feedings. I have a fenced in yard out back and 2 friendly dogs for your fur baby to keep company. I have a play pen for smaller dogs if necessary.
“We couldn’t be happier with the amazing care our dog Penny received! From the moment we met Valerie, it was clear that she genuinely loves dogs and takes her job seriously. She went above and beyond to make sure Penny was happy, comfortable, and well cared for while we were away. Not only did she provide plenty of walks and exercise, but she also incorporated fun enrichment activities that kept Penny's mind stimulated and tail wagging. We loved getting regular updates and photos (even videos!) of all their adventures together. It gave us such peace of mind knowing Penny was in such loving hands, especially since this was the first time Penny stayed with Valerie. She treats every dog like her own, with so much patience, affection, and attention to detail. We came home to a happy pup who clearly had an amazing time. We can’t recommend Valerie highly enough and have already booked her again for two more stays! She is the best!”

“Andrew and Karen took great care of our little lady. She seemed to have a great time with their dog, Finn, and got lots of love and attention. We also appreciated their prompt replies and pictures.”

“Sharon is truly incredible! This was our 2 girls’ first time staying with Sharon. Our girls can sometimes be a bit timid at first but they acclimated so well and she made them feel right at home (even bringing out an extra rug so that our Charlotte wasn’t so nervous walking on hard wood floors)! Sharon is kind, thoughtful and puts animals (and humans) at complete ease :) I’m so grateful we found her and look forward to our girls’ next stay with her!”
“Beatriz was a phenomenal sitter with my dog. She updated me everyday with photos and updates of my little pal. She even recommended services for my dog which was very helpful! Beatriz sincerely cares about the dogs she is baby sitting which was very important to me especially with someone like myself who was new to Rover. I 100% am going to use Beatriz again! It was an absolute pleasure!”
