“Diane and her family were AMAZING with Hank! They took great care of him. Diane sent daily updates and pictures, which is always nice when we're away from our dog. I highly recommend Diane and her family!”

“Gabrielle and her family took wonderful care of Hank! She sent photos and videos of him playing and swimming. I highly recommend Gabrielle and we plan on using her again!”

“Sarah and her family are amazing! She truly loves dogs and we felt very comfortable knowing Molly was in good hands. She is a great communicator, very organized, and shared daily photos and videos of our goofy pup. We've used Rover several times and Sarah is the absolute best! We've already booked another stay for Molly next month. Sarah is now our go-to dog sitter! Thank you for taking such great care of Molly! Steve & Beth”

“Scout our Australian Shepard/English Setter who is 1 1/2 yrs old had a Great time with Steven, Brittany and family. He also enjoyed the companion of the other dog being Boarded there this weekend. They followed the routine we use at home as far as staying off furniture unless on my lap and giving him his blanket and chewey toy and a milkbone after his last potty break for the night. He enjoyed the walks and all the attention he recieved. We loved the pictures and updates each day we were gone. I have all ready booked another visit in Oct. when we have to travel to PA. This is a Great Rover.com family boarding home.”

“Tasha has been watching our dog, Charlotte, for about a year now. Tasha always takes amazing care of her when we go out of town—whether it’s just overnight or for a longer trip. Char gets so much love from Tasha and her family and always comes home happy and tired from playing in her big backyard. We have really come to rely on Tasha and would be lost without her! Highly recommend to any dog owners in the area—she is sweet, trustworthy, responsive and extremely easy to communicate with. Thanks for all you do, Tasha!”

“Olivia was so good and so patient with Finn. He has A LOT of energy and is still a puppy but she made me feel comfortable and I knew he would be safe and looked after. Thank you!!”

“Wonderful. Didn’t worry about my dog, not for a second. Got pictures/updates at least 1x/day. With Donna & Calvin, I know my dog will be loved, exercised, as well as well rested. Thank you both!”

About: I’ve had animals since I was a kid and always enjoyed taking care of them! It’s very rewarding for me. In my early 20s I was a dog trainer I’m a stay at home dad. We have a 10 and a 5 year old. I take walks throughout the day and between my wife someone is always home unless we are taking the kids somewhere. If they like the car and the park I can even take them with me! I walk a lot and am outside with my kids throughout the day. My kids love dogs so they will be showered with love and cuddles (if they enjoy that).
“Savannah was great! She is so sweet and good with animals. She gave my high energy Australian Shepherd puppy lots of enrichment, and he had a lot of fun. She also gave my cat a safe quiet space so she was comfortable during her stay as well. She was also very responsive and sent plenty of updates and photos, so I knew my animals were in good hands. I would highly recommend Savannah, and I would definitely book again!”

“I can’t recommend Kim enough! Her home and family are charming, welcoming and trustworthy. We left my wild and crazy 1 year old golden retriever with her for a long weekend and received so many photos and updates that it put me at ease on our vacation. I can’t thank Kim enough for giving us peace of mind knowing our dog was loved and taken care of!! Thank you again! I wish we lived in her area so we could use her more often!!! 10/10!”


“Carey was wonderful with Jager! She was extremely responsive, friendly, and kept me well updated with photos throughout his stay. It was clear her whole family showered my fur baby with love. I felt completely at ease knowing my pup was in such caring hands. Highly recommend!”


“Took care of Lupe on a 14 day trip. Lupe is a little older and a wheaten terrier. Sometimes with an older dog and a little terrier in her, she could be a little quirky. But Taylor and his family accommodated Lupe very nicely and I am very grateful to have had their service and allowed their home for Lupe to stay as I had to travel for work.”

“I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! Angela took excellent care of my dog and I appreciated her daily updates while I was away. Your dog is in great hands with her!”

Savannah was great! She is so sweet and good with animals. She gave my high energy Australian Shepherd puppy lots of enrichment, and he had a lot of fun. She also gave my cat a safe quiet space so she was comfortable during her stay as well. She was also very responsive and sent plenty of updates and photos, so I knew my animals were in good hands. I would highly recommend Savannah, and I would definitely book again!

Carey was the absolute best dog sitter I could ever ask for!! She was so so helpful and patient and made me feel so at ease taking care of my high-energy German Shepherd, Lady. It’s always a bit nerve-racking to leave your dog with someone new, and especially so when your dog is a handful like my Lady! But Carey truly went above and beyond my expectations, and even when Lady had some frustrating anxiety issues, Carey took care of it without complaint, which seriously meant the world to me. She also sent me lots of photos every day and kept me super updated!! Book Carey for your next dog sitter and you will be so glad you did!!

I should start off by saying this was an emergency last minute booking that Faith was able to accommodate! She made things so smooth and heart felt; within 24 hours she allowed me to visit her residence to get a feel for where my lil man 🐕 would be staying. I could tell she would be very attentive to him. Over the next 2 weeks she stayed up-to-date with me constantly, sending a pic or 2 each day and kind words to reflect how things were going. I had no worries at all! I let her know that I would be a tad late picking him up on the pick up day, and she kindly understood and was excited to see things through. I will most definitely be booking with her again!!

Can’t say enough about Natalie and Chip, from the moment they were dropped off care was provided for Sampson as we discovered he had a issue going on we were afraid they might would of canceled there stay due to the situation he had, but they stepped right up and took wonderful care for these babies of ours. Thanks guys your awesome and for showing true love and care for our boxers.❤️🐾

What a great experience! This is my first time using Rover. Laine and her housemate were such sweeties to my big shepherd! Firstly she's a great communicator really responsive and clear. She did a great job of helping me orient to the platform and also to introduce our dogs. She asked really good inappropriate questions that made me feel reassured. She was thinking of everything. Such patience and ease. Her set up is just perfect for a dog because there's great big glass windows and you can see everything going on in the "play yard" everything's clean and lots of things for dogs to enjoy. And they seem pretty relaxed about having the dogs lounge with them and playing with them and it looked like my dog was having an absolute blast! Usually when I pick up my dog after being away she is like a rodeo horse so excited to see me! I think in this case she had so much fun she was OK with staying! I can't recommend Laine highly enough! Oh and did I mention that she did my booking last minute when I was filling in for a coworker! She's just great!
