“Marcin is wonderful! He was flexible with pick up and drop off for a last minute request. Great with communication, lots of pics of the many walks they went on, our dog was happy and well taken care of and even sent home with homemade treats! We really apppreciated his service and will definitely use him again next time!”


“Kevin fell asleep within 2 minutes on the way home, sign of a good time as always! Thank you for the care, nice knowing I have great sitters and feel comfortable leaving him with you guys.”


“Margaret is awesome! She is super attentive and communicative about our pups. We’ve had 4-5 stays in the past few months, and both our dogs always look forward to staying with her. She’s amazing, and I would recommend her to anyone in the area with a pup in need of great care.”


“As always, Catherine did a great job. The dogs had a great time and were well cared for. Both dogs were excited to return to Catherine's house and not at all eager to leave!”


“Katie and Kristen were great! They were extremely responsive and sent lots of pictures and updates. Our dog settled in quickly and was very comfortable with them.”


“Couldn't have worked out any better. Kelly and Brandon were amazing care givers for Maverick. They made us feel completely comfortable by taking care of our dog in a personable way. We were updated frequently and received photos letting us know all was well. Maverick has a new best friend in Arvon.”


“Donner and Zelda had another great visit with Uncle Will and Auntie Cara. We are so lucky to have found a loving place to leave our dogs. Looking forward to another visit again soon!”


“Oscar and Shannon took great care of our dogs, Gooseberry and Rutabaga. The communication from both of them was excellent—they sent us regular updates and pictures, which really helped put our minds at ease while we were traveling. The whole experience was very calming, and we were able to enjoy our excursion without worrying. I would highly recommend Oscar and Shannon to any prospective client looking for the highest level of care for their dog. They were by far the most professional boarders we’ve worked with through Rover, and we’ll definitely be booking with them again in the near future.”


“Elizabeth takes great care of Laddie while we are away. She is very responsive to our inquiries and flexible when schedules change. We received photos of Laddie happily running around and playing, which made our vacation more comfortable. I definitely recommend Elizabeth if your fur baby needs good care.”


“Wow. This was our first experience with Rover and Rodney and we are so thankful to have found such a loving & FUN home for our dog when we are gone! Henry had a fantastic time playing with other dogs and being accepted for the puppy he is! To be honest, we were happy he wanted to come home with us! Lol! He was living his best life! Freedom outdoors in a fenced yard and so many dog friends to play with. He ate great which is a sign of happiness. I would give 10 ✨if I could. Rodney is a wonderful person! Thank you!”


“Our Toby has boarded with Deana multiple times. We couldn’t be happier with how she lovingly cares for our senior pup and can’t recommend her enough for your furries! She clearly loves dogs, and her little dog Shaggy is very friendly and open to sharing his mom, dad, and home with visiting dogs. Our dog has become somewhat anxious in his advancing years and is on multiple oral meds. When I pick him up at the end of his stay with Deana, he seems relaxed and happy… not at all anxious, which is a very welcome surprise! I would highly recommend Deana as a trustworthy and loving carer for your dog when you have to be away.”


“Laura was wonderful. She had a fenced yard and two dogs for our dog to play with. She was so understanding when he had some loose stools. Even fed him some rice. She went above and beyond. I wish she had clones in every place we stay. Would definitely use again. She also kept us updated and sent pictures.”


“Courtney was amazing! My dog Willow loved playing with their dog, Brucer and playing outside on all their land. Courtney was great at sending pictures and keeping us updated and she treated Willow like her own dog and gave her lots of cuddles and love. Thank you so much guys! We will be reaching out again!”


“Karen was great with our 15 year old dog. She kept us informed, sent pictures and spoiled her! She was great with having a meet and greet ahead of time. We would definitely use her again in the future!”

“Madelyn did great with our three dogs! Our pickiest one warmed up to her right away, and she was accommodating of our senior's mobility issues. She sent lots of cute pictures, and had great communication!”
