“Olivia makes me feel at ease. She gave me plenty of updates on my fur baby. I trust her whole heartedly to look after Stormi! She treats every dog as her own & integrates them so well into her pack 🥹”

“Luliia was amazing with my toy poodle! She is my world so I made sure to look at reviews very carefully and she did not disappoint!! She sent me pics and videos of my baby everyday and Eevee looked like she had a blast and made new friends. I will definitely be booking with Luliia again. So happy we found someone who we could trust with our tiny 5 pound treasure.”

“Anthony is a great caregiver to my “humans only” homebody lab mix. After bad experiences with kennels, we usually opt for in home care and decided to try something new. Anthony responded quickly and was able to accommodate Cherry’s needs with no issue and the meal instructions were successfully followed. Cherry was returned to us happy, and healthy. It was evident that they had a blast in the backyard, because she mlemed and slept peacefully the rest of the night. We look forward to rebooking.”

“Midas loves spending time with Yan, her husband, and all the dogs they watch. As soon as I arrived Midas was whining with excitement and greeted Yan’s husband with a big hug. As always they sent tons of photos and videos which eased my worries during my trip. :) thank you Yan!!”

“Mercedes was great! She kept me updated and sent pictures! She took very well care of my Jackson and we were happy to have booked her! Will definitely be booking her again!!”

“This was our first time booking with rover and we were for sure nervous - but Edwin was FANTASTIC! I’m such a nervous dog mom and our pup, Cigar, got a little sick just before we left town. So we were extra worried we wouldn’t be able to find a place for her to stay for 10 days on such short notice. But after leaving Cig with Edwin and receiving updates about her settling in right away, we instantly felt like she was in good hands. He was thorough with her meds, asked questions when needed, and sent the perfect amount of updates. We know Cigar was being well loved and soaking up the attention and yard space! We were even a bit worried she would like his home more and not want to come back with us after her stay lol! Absolutely will be keeping Edwin in mind for our next trip.”

“Savannah & Gabriel took good care of Abby, my 3-month old puppy, for about 7 hours while I went to the UT football game. They are a sweet couple, their apartment is immaculate, & Abby seemed relaxed & happy when I picked her up. I was also happy that they only had one pet of their own, another little shih tzu like Abby. I appreciated the pictures of Abby they sent. I also liked that they had puppy supplies (play pen, pads, beds, etc). All in all it was a very good experience.”

“Amazing! She took great care of my puppy and more! Great doggie sitter! Give me updates, videos and pictures of my puppy during boarding will use her again in the future to watch my puppy. Thank you so much 😊”

“Denise provided a loving, comfortable environment for my pup. Very good about his care, communicating with me, and all around professionalism. Will happily have her sit for us again!”

“Patches did an amazing job caring for my miniature dachshund! She had great communication, always responding quickly, and sent daily updates that gave me so much peace of mind while I was away for a week. I felt at ease knowing my pup was in such great hands!”

“Marcel was great! He was very accommodating, flexible, and had great communication. I received several great pictures and knew she was in great hands. He also has a great backyard and neighborhood parks for your dog! 10/10 would recommend!”

“Clarice and her husband took amazing care of our 3 dogs while we went out of town! She sent many pictures and I knew they were being spoiled and loved while we were away. Would happily use her again!”

“Where to begin? Youna and Nick were fabulous hosts for our kitty! They followed my kitty’s routine to a tee and sent excellent updates with the most beautiful pictures of our baby. I HIGHLY recommend these two and will definitely be booking again with them in the future 😊”

“The backyard gave Tucker lots of high quality play time and Desmond & Robyn were fantastic at sending me pictures of Tucker intermittently throughout the day. Next time I am in need of a sitter, Desmond & Robyn will definitely be my first choice. Highly recommend!”

“Sarah is awesome! I contacted her when our normal sitter canceled just before we were about to drop our dog off and we were in a panic to find a sitter for the weekend, as we were on our way out of town. Sarah responded immediately and was so helpful in coordinating the drop off to make it as easy as possible. She is so sweet and our dog, Charlie, seemed to do very well with her. Thank you, Sarah, for stepping in a saving the day! We will definitely be using Sarah again!!!”

“Grace and Alan were absolutely amazing. We had an emergency trip and were so lucky to have found them. They accommodated us for a meet and greet so our pup could get acquainted with their adorable and very sweet dogs. They are all so warm and incredibly welcoming, after our initial meeting we immediately felt at ease leaving our pup in their care. They have a perfect backyard for dogs to play and get lots of exercise, they consistently sent updates and lots of pictures and videos so we had no worries the whole time we were away. It’s very clear how much they truly care about dogs, our pup was definitely well loved and pampered in their home 😊 They are the perfect pet parents and we would not hesitate to leave our pup in their care again!”

“Lexi really enjoyed being there and I have nothing but good things to say about these two. I appreciate them coming through for me and keeping lexi happy in my absence!”

Lockhart dog parents share their Rover experiences
I recently used Rover for dog boarding while my wife and I were out of town on vacation, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. Our trip was planned last-minute, but thankfully we found Kimberly — truly a star sitter! She was incredibly responsive, which made everything so easy. We quickly arranged a meet-and-greet that instantly gave us confidence. Kimberly was flexible with our drop-off and pick-up times since our travel schedule wasn’t fully set, and we really appreciated that. Throughout our dog’s stay, she kept us updated with photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. Seeing our boy happy, relaxed, and having a great time allowed us to enjoy a completely stress-free vacation. Despite the heavy rain in the Austin area that week, she kept him clean and comfortable the entire time — impressive! When we picked him up, he was in great spirits and clearly had been well cared for and loved by her and her family. I’m so grateful to them for treating him like one of their own. Overall, we had a fantastic experience. It felt personal and caring — not at all like dropping him off at a kennel. We will absolutely book with Kimberly again and will be using Rover for future travels.
