“We had a wonderful experience. They took great care of our dog and were incredibly understanding and accommodating when my flight was unexpectedly canceled. I had to book an extra night last minute, and they were so flexible and kind about it, which truly relieved a lot of stress for me. Our dog was happy, well cared for, and clearly comfortable with them. We’re very grateful and would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, compassionate care.”
“Ethan did a great job caring for my dog! My dog can be finicky, and Ethan was able to win him over right away. Great communication and easy last minute booking. Thank you, Ethan!”
“Wonderful communication, professionalism, and enthusiasm. She worked with my requests and provided a worry free experience. I really appreciated Sheena's help in sitting our puppy and would definitely use her again!”
“Melody did great job talking care Max . She sanded me pictures and write the notes about the Max and how he loves to cuddle with her and follow her around. Melody is very nice and she loves being taken care of Max . I’m really appreciate her.”
“Kelly was great with our little one, she frequently reached out to us with photos and videos, assuring us that she had settled into a routine and was comfortable. I wouldn’t hesitate to book Kelly again. Thanks Kelly 🙏”
“This was my first time booking with Bobbi, and she was absolutely fantastic! From the very start, her communication was excellent and made me feel totally at ease. My dogs looked relaxed and happy when I picked them up, and I could tell they were well cared for and got plenty of walks and attention. They even made some new pup friends while staying with her! I really appreciated the updates and just how smoothly everything went. I’ll definitely be booking with Bobbi again!”
“Gisella was amazing at responding to my last minute message to watch my Frenchy Mochi. She did an amazing job updating me throughout my shift his activities and with any questions she had. She also sent lovely photos. I would use Gisella again. 😊”
“Amanda did awesome caring for our Boston Terrier, Moses. She sent photo updates regularly and even let him sleep with them in the bed after I let her know how much he loves to snuggle and be close to humans! I feel like she knows what she is doing as she cares for all the dogs needs that are in her care! I recommend her to anyone looking for a place to board their pup and I will definitely be calling again to board, Moses. (probably towards the end of March) :)”
“This was our first time using Rover and Aliesha and we’re really glad we did. She took great care of our two boys. We knew after our meet and greet that her and her sweet dog Otto would be perfect for our pups. They seemed to fit right in and got along perfectly. Our boys came home happy healthy and exhausted from all the play time! Will definitely use again!!”
“Dee Anne took was able to take Luna in on very short notice. She took great care of her. Great communication, care, and made Luna comfortable. Highly recommended, and hope to be able to have her care for Luna again in the future!”
“Mariana was a great sitter for our pups. She was very transparent in making sure it was OK if she had other dogs at the house. She was very thorough and made me feel like she really cared for the boys. She sent tons of pictures which were great! They came home happy and sleepy! :)”
“Alyssa was so wonderful to work with. She is very personable and communicative about all of our dogs needs. I appreciated that she has a great set up for animals, clean, and warm hearted with our dog. I recommend her and would be happy to book her again.”
“Our dog Buttercup had a wonderful time with Jennifer and her family. She is knowledgeable about all things dog and made Buttercup feel right at home. She was also responsive and easy to communicate with! We will be leaving Buttercup with her again!”
“We were nervous about leaving Jack as this was his first time being boarded. From the photos he was very happy and loves getting to play with other dogs. Kana and Brian are very caring and you can tell they enjoy what they do.”
“The BEST!!! 🐾 🐕Meredith is an absolute lifesaver! We needed emergency boarding during a stressful life transition, and she provided a safe, nurturing space for our ESA (who had sadly been mistreated in someone else's care). Our sweet dog is sometimes fearful and timid, but Meredith was patient, understanding, and helped show his true gentle nature. Highly recommend! 🐾 🏆”
“First time using Rover. Molly, her pups and home environment were very welcoming. My old dog has an expensive dislike to the crowded and noisy concrete boarding facilities. She seemed to enjoy staying in a quiet home like setting with a great backyard and a calming human. I will definitely use Molly again. Convenient and quick drop off and pick up. Thank you!”
“Lizzie was incredible! My Bruce had sooooo much fun staying with her pack (human and animals alike). Her own dogs were very friendly with him and welcoming, and she spoiled him with lots of long walks, trips to the dog park, and games of fetch. He was a super happy pup when I picked him up and can't wait to book with her again!”
“Dylan was a perfect fit! He is great at communicating with you, and makes the whole process smooth and easy. He is well versed in various breeds and enjoys their companionship. Our puppy was still learning, and Dylan was able to continue the process and schedule. I would highly recommend utilizing his services if you are in need of someone.”

Oly-dog had a great time during his week-long stay. Xavier helped put me at ease through clear communication, responsiveness, and follow-through with Oly's care plan. I'm myself a sitter with about 1,000 bookings through Rover, so I know a good-one from a lackluster-one; Xavier makes the cut. Oly would stay again.

The BEST!!! 🐾 🐕Meredith is an absolute lifesaver!

Dee Anne took fabulous care of our big boy, Cowboy (110-pound German Shepherd)! She took him on walks to the park, played ball with him in her wonderful fenced yard, and just gave him lots of love and attention. And she kept us posted with photos and updates so we never had to worry or wonder how he was doing. When we went to pick him up, it was obvious that he had had a wonderful time. He was happy as a lark playing fetch with her outside. We will definitely trust her with Cowboy again!
Trina is awesome! She takes such great care of Max, helps him have lots of play time with her pups who he loves, and is very communicative with me on what he's up to which I really appreciate. She has helped when Max needs daily eye drops and gives him his daily dental treat which is so helpful so he can have consistency. Max has an amazing time and is always so excited to have sleepovers with Trina, Bruiser, and Peaches.
This is our second boarding experience with Jennifer and she took good care of Blaze! He fit in really well with her doggy crew, she shared so many pictures and messages which helped us feel at ease being away... she even did a custom, adorable Valentines themed photoshoot with Blaze. Really appreciate you Jennifer!
