“Emily was great! She was able to watch Minnie at the last minute, and she sent me multiple photos and updates. She even took Minnie on walks. Would love to have Emily watch Minnie again.”


“Kel was so accommodating and Tank had a fantastic vacation! We contacted Kel at the last minute and she was quick to respond. Even though Tank is a giant breed, Kel accepted him into her home and treated him like one of her own. Tank got plenty of socialization, exercise, and companionship. Kel kept us updated daily with pictures as well which we thoroughly enjoyed! We will use Kel again!”


“Job well done and caring for our little puppy. He didn’t have a home and we were trying to adopt him and things didn’t work out and we needed a border for a few days. Kimberly was the first to respond. my pet was a handful. Super active made accidents in the house ! I know she did her own share of barking and Kimberly never complained. She kept me up-to-date on how my pet was doing and even made a video . She did Amazing with little notice. I was in a real bind— I have nothing but good things to say about her so it is my opinion that Ms Kimberly is a great choice for anyone that needs their pet boarded. Thank you Kimberly . Job well Done.”


“Just picked up our pup, Mike and his family are amazing! From communication to flexibility to treating our pup as their own, I can’t say enough good things about this family and experience (in a new city). Thank you, thank you, thank you! 10/10 WILL be utilizing their care again!”

“Incredible sitter, so kind and my dog warmed up to her immediately (which he never does). She made things so easy, I could actually relax on my vacation. All around wonderful experience.”


“Overall, everything was great. They treated Milo just like their own very sweet and great couple. Most definitely will return. also sent pictures to keep me updated.”


“Had an awesome stay with Lee yet again! Silas ran into their house so happy when I dropped him off. They took him on car rides and seemed to really welcome him into their home! 100% would book again!”


“Tracy was a phenomenal host! He took great care of my pup while providing a safe and clean space for her to spend five days all the while providing me perfect updates. I will definitely use him again!”


“Our dogs loved their time with Jessica! They felt right at home from the first moment. She kept us updated and went above and beyond to help our dogs have a great week while we were away.”



“This was our first Rover event and it was perfect. Sherry took exceptional care of Marley our King Charles Spaniel. She is deaf and sight challenged but Sherry made her the feel right at home!! So glad we made a new friend with Sherry!!”


“We are so glad we found Ann Marie. Two weeks before our vacation, a family member backed out of caring for our doggies. We chose her because of excellent reviews. She certainly lived up to those reviews. She took such good care of our dog with skin allergies. She did not mind giving & applying all the medicines. This was one of our dog's first time to board. Ann Marie made her feel so welcomed & gave her plenty of belly rubs. She sent pictures that reassured us they were happy & doing well. I would recommend all doggies to stay with this sitter. They will have a great time in her home away from home.”


“Alexis was amazing with my two dogs! I had to leave for a 3-day weekend and the day I had to leave, I had to take one of mine to the vet. She was having some stomach issues and had an ear infection. Alexis was amazing at making sure she was going outside plenty, giving her her medicine, and cleaning up after her when she made a mess. Kong is a sweet boy and Maddie had a blast playing with him (Dixon had a great time being referee and sitting in laps). Overall, I can’t recommend her enough and I’m so thankful for her taking care of my babies.”


About: I have been around dogs my entire life, and got my first very own dog 15 years ago, an English bulldog named Zoey. We lost her to cancer last year, and now have our amazing boxer Abby, who just turned one year old! I have cared for friends’ dogs multiple times throughout the years, and have experience caring for dogs of various ages. We have had dogs stay for just one or two nights, up to 1-2 weeks at a time, so we are flexible in meeting your needs! I also have experience with giving medications as needed! After offering sitting via Facebook and word of mouth, I figured why not make it Rover official 🐶 As a stay at home mom to two little boys, ages 7 and 5 my schedule is very flexible! My husband Sy works in the oil field in Oklahoma and is home every two weeks. I am home most hours of the day, with the exception of day-to-day errands such as going to this grocery store, or kid drop off and pick ups for various appointments! I also substitute teach at my boys elementary school during the weeks when my husband is home from his work rotations! So basically, if I’m subbing he is home! I am available for boarding 7 days a week. We also feel that is it important to share that our youngest son, Max is non-verbal autistic. Max is the sweetest, quietest little boy who does extremely well with dogs who come into our home. And in all honesty, he is so indifferent and could care less lol 💕 he loves our Abby and just walks around dogs who have stayed with us. If you have any questions or concerns regarding this, we are happy to answer 😊 We have a very large backyard that we are in the process of getting fenced in on August 1st! Until that time all friends are walked safely via leash in the backyard for potty breaks! Our dog Abby is very social and loves playing with other dogs! We strive to emulate as much of a “home away from home experience”, as possible and we will do our best to keep your dog on the same schedule they are accustomed to at home! Your dog will be snuggled and loved as if they were a member of our own family! I have a spare crate if your dog is crate trained, as well as a cozy room with extra dog beds if they do best tucked in to a quiet space when we are out of the home. Your dog is welcome to hang out on the couch or on a bed! We are here for all the snuggles! If you prefer them to sleep in a crate, that’s what we will do! I so look forward to snuggling your fur baby and giving them a “home away from home” experience.

“Dynasty was the greatest. She communicates well and was very easy to work with. She also kept me updated with pictures and videos. Benji smelled so lovely when i picked him up. He really enjoyed himself.”


“Top marks for Rachel — she is warm, friendly and easy to work with. Our poodle mix, Bixby, obviously had a relaxing and comfortable stay with Rachel and her cats. Based on Bixby’s reactions, Rachel clearly offers a comfortable and loving home for all her guests. We will definitely go back to Rachel again in the future!”


“Loved leaving our pups with Shaina! She was very thorough about making sure all the pups would be happy during their stay and updated us often with adorable pictures and fun things they did ? we will definitely be using her again!”


About: I have 3 huskies. The oldest is 14 and the youngest is 4. I also have 2 cats aging 7-16 years. I have given medications to animals numerous times over the years. My animals are treated like family. My entire family loves animals. We even play with with our neighbors animals. I work 3 nights a week and I'm home all day until I go in to work. Besides those times, I’m usually home and if I’m out it’s usually only a couple of hours. I have a fenced in yard with two runners as well as two large crates. My dogs have their own area in my home that includes dog beds and their own chaise.
