“Christian was absolutely wonderful. He took his time getting to know Georgia during our meet and greet. He carefully observed how she interacted with other dogs at his home. He is very compassionate and knows what he is doing. I felt extremely comfortable boarding Georgia with him for a few days. He sent pictures throughout his visit so I always knew how Georgia was doing. I highly recommend Christian and I will definitely use his services again.”

“Our young retriever had a great stay with Megan! I was a little nervous about boarding him for the first time, but Megan put us at ease right away. Great communication, clean and safe accommodations and flexible with our pick up times. 100% would use her services again and recommend her highly!”

“Truly amazing! Very communicative with prompt responses and lots of pictures and updates. We are thankful to have found this wonderful family to help us with our pups. Thank you! We will always recommend you and use you in the future.”

“Danieris and Julian are a wonderful and kind couple. They welcomed my dog and communicated regularly about his stay and questions. I would absolutely use them again.”

“Maya is an absolute gem! She took care of my beloved Asti with such attention and care that I was completely at ease and had no worries. From time to time, she would send me adorable videos and photos of Asti playing or enjoying her walks outside. It was clear that my dog was in safe and loving hands. Maya truly loves what she does, and it shows in everything. From now on, I’ll trust only her to look after Asti! If you’re looking for a caring and reliable sitter for your pet, Maya is definitely the one to choose!”

“Angela and Jorge were so good with our poodle Bailey! They made us feel comfortable in their home and Bailey to feel welcome. The communication was superb and we felt she was well cared-for and happy. We will definitely use them again.”

“Thank you so much for taking great care of Lilo. When I picked up my Lilo she wagged her tail and it gave me a sigh of relief because I knew she had a great time. I will be using them again for any occasion if Lilo needs to be taken care of. I’m happy I chose you. Thank you!”

“First time I have ever left my pup with someone , and he absolutely loved her from the beginning!! Definitely will be using again and again ♥️ He was so excited at pick up but also wanted to love on summer , highly recommend.”

“Im glad that i meet Holli,she and her family are amazing and such a good people they take care of my dog as he were their own and i really appreciate that,definitely i recomend her 100%”

“Angelica was phenomenal with our puppy. This was his first time going to a different home to sleep and she made him feel so comfortable. We got updates with photos and videos multiple times a day and she even listened to our instructions when it came to crate training and feeding for him. We will DEFINITELY be using Angelica again and I cannot recommend her enough for your pups!”

“This was my first time using Rover and I was very pleased. Karla was very responsive and followed-up with me regularly during my time away. I felt comfortable leaving my dog, Ben, under her care and will certainly rebook with her in the future.”
“Mary was absolutely wonderful with my Max. She sent pictures of him playing with Chester and enjoying life. She made me feel so comfortable leaving him for a week and not feeling concerned at all. I think Max found his new second home when we travel. This is such a blessing as it’s hard to find someone like Mary. Thank you again for making him feel so at home.”

“Luz was awesome. She sent no less than three pictures of our dog every day while we were on vacation. Our dog requires medication three times daily and putting our trust in Luz to administer those doses worked out real well. Next time we need a dog sitter, you better believe we’ll reach out to her again.”

“Serenah and her aunt were SO great! I felt totally safe with my dogs in their hands. They sent pictures and even got the dogs extra treats. Being so far away can give dog owners anxiety but after checking out their home and talking with her I was feeling very secure. I am definitely going to try to use her again!!! 10/10”

“her and her family are the sweetest and very clearly dog lovers. she frequently sent updates and was extremely responsive and reliable. would definitely trust her with my puppy again!!”

“Cherisse was awasome!!! My dog definitely enjoyed being over there. She sent lots of videos and pictures!!! I would definitely love my dog to go over there again in the future!!!”

Lakeland Highlands dog parents share their Rover experiences
Christian was great! We will definitely book with him again. He is very knowledgeable about dog behavior….. especially with our quirky Murphy. We appreciate his updates and photos on our trip. With his care and compassion for Murphy, I don’t think he missed us too much😝

This was our first time using Rover so I was very nervous. We all know our pets are our babies! Our Zoro fell in LOVE with Danieris and Julia instantly and that alone calmed my nerves. They sent updates the whole time and expressed how much they enjoyed him. I would book with them everytime if I have the choice.

I am so thankful for having the opportunity to leave Riley with Angie at her house. She is a pro!! Angie was caring and firm with Riley who is very playful and needed some behavior correction. She did it with passion and love. She is a natural dog sitter. Also, Angie is super organized, her house is clean and cozy. The yard is properly maintained. I highly recommend Angie and I am definitely planning on using her professional services again soon.

Melissa was a wonderful babysitter for our fur-baby, Chevi💗 She was so thoughtful of our feelings of leaving her with someone we didn’t know before. She sent us several pictures every day of their walks, which is Chevi’s favorite thing to do, along with playing Tug-o -war with her stuffed animals. Chevi had to be on a specific diet for a while and she did great at making sure that this diet was followed. Melissa was a great comfort to us during this time away!!

Maryanna was absolutely amazing! She was attentive, kind, and truly treated our dog like her own. She kept us updated and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. We picked up a happy, well-cared-for pup. Highly recommend her, we’ll definitely book with Maryanna again!
We are so grateful for the amazing care our fur baby received over Thanksgiving! She was incredibly sweet and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. We got daily updates and the cutest pictures, and it was clear our pup was happy, comfortable, and having a great time. It truly means so much knowing he was in such loving hands. We would absolutely love to use her again in the future, and we highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful and dependable pet sitter! 🐾💛
