“Abby was great with my dogs. She kept me informed throughout the entire trip and was vigilant in keeping my dog with addisons disease healthy. She went above and beyond to ensure they had a good stay.”
“Felt the warmth of Dylan as soon as I walked and I knew my girls would be in good hands. He did wonderful taking care of my rebellious girls and that is what I needed. I absolutely recommend his services.”
“Absolutely great family taking care of Monty not just as my dog but as their own. Monty was such a happy boy when I picked him up. He says he wants to go back one day soon again. Such a beautiful family affair that made my travel so much easier knowing he s in such good hands including their super sweet and beautiful dog. Thank you so much”
“Marshmallow had an amazing time! He didn’t want to leave when we came to get him. He was very tired when we got home and was the quietness he’s been, which is saying something for a 4 month old puppy!! Will definitely be coming back soon.”
“Kendra is amazing as always. I always feel comfortable and at ease when my dog is in her care. She provides quality care and consistent updates. I highly recommend her services.”
“Andrea was great! Our dog seemed to feel right at home! Andrea sent pictures and kept us updated. She was so communicative, patient and kind! This was our first time using this service app and she made the experience fantastic!”
“Very professional and practical. The communication was punctual and timely. I was very pleased to see our dog having such a lovely time during my time away. Highly recommend Anita for your Rover needs.”
“I was extremely satisfied with the care Bentley received while with Amanda and her family. Her fur babies were very welcoming to Bentley and I felt he was happy with his new friends. To my surprise, they went on a “field trip” where they were allowed to run off leash and smell and play in a very large confined space . I worried he would not want to leave with me and leave his friends behind. I highly recommend Amanda and will definitely use her in the future!!”
“They took great care of Merle and sent lots of updates with photos! He had a wonderful time at their house and came home tired after lots of play. I recommend this sitter!”
“I'm happy to report that I was Lisa's first customer. She was absolutely phenomenal with Ryce. She ensured that he was safe, fed and entertained. I received many pictures from the beginning to the end of the stay. Lisa is definitely a breathe of fresh air and I will use her again and again. See you soon, Lisa!!!”
“We left our doggie with Ari while traveling for two weeks and we couldn't have asked for anyone better to look after him. Our special boy is a senior Schnoodle that we rescued last year from a breeder situation gone really bad. Ari and her family welcomed him with open arms and treated him like he was one of the family. She sent daily updates and we thought our boy may not want to come home after seeing how much fun he was having in the photos. Also, he made a new best friend with the family dog Apollo. I would recommend Ari to anyone that is looking for a home-away-from home for their fur babies.”
“It was a pleasure to have Bean stay with Allejah. She was a sweetheart and so accommodating! I will definitely be booking again. She was extremely considerate of any changes made, as well as any potential problem Bean ran into! <3”
“Tracey has always been caring to Bud as one of her own. She has made sure that Bud feels comfortable in the new surroundings and provided care even when had to take some meds. She periodically sends updates on how Bud is doing and gives me detailed feedback upon pick up. My Bud (dog) is very comfortable at Tracey's.”
“Ellysia is the best! My pups had the greatest time with her and her family. Updated daily with pictures and activities. We will definitely be using her again and recommend her hands down.”
About: I’ve always had a deep love for animals and truly enjoy caring for them as if they were my own. I’m a responsible, patient, and attentive person who understands how important it is for pet parents to feel at ease while they’re away. I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes and personalities, including feeding, walks, playtime, and making sure they feel safe and loved. I pay close attention to their behavior and needs, and I’m comfortable following specific routines or instructions. I will treat your pet with love, respect, and care—just like family. 🐾💛 I’m also very communicative and will send regular updates, photos, and videos so you can feel connected and worry-free. I work from home running my small business, which allows me to be present and attentive throughout the day. The only times I step out are briefly to drop off and pick up my daughter from school. Because of this, your pet will rarely be left alone and will receive plenty of attention, playtime, and care. I’m available for boarding, daycare, and walks, with a flexible schedule to meet your pet’s needs. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment where your pet will feel at home. I always prioritize their comfort and well-being, following any specific routines, feeding schedules, or instructions you provide. I supervise pets closely, keep a clean and secure space, and make sure they feel relaxed and cared for at all times. I’m also happy to send regular updates, photos, and videos so you can feel at ease while you’re away. Your pet will be treated with the same love and attention as my own. 🐾💛
“These lovely sitters have a special place in our hearts. They truly seem to be a second family to our precious Mae. Highly recommend above all if the other boarders we’ve used through Rover and other means of securing a pet sitter.”
“Kayce kept my 2 dogs for about 5 days! They have a great fenced in yard and dog kennels which is nice. As I did not need to bring a kennel for my smaller dog. It was a cold, muddy weekend and my pups came back clean, tired and happy. Her dog Bebop is such a cutie!”
“I'm so grateful to have come across this family. They are amazing and we had such peace of mind while on vacation. They're so kind flexible and incredible with our pups. We got pictures everyday and they treated our two dogs like they were their own. Will 1000% use them again.”

Locust Grove dog parents share their Rover experiences
Amy and Grant are wonderful. They were welcoming and flexible with Ollie’s needs, especially as their own pup was recovering from an injury. They have a nice big yard for play, communicated regularly, and it was obvious they cared to make Ollie’s stay comfortable for him and their family.
We recently hired Claire to care for our dog AJ, a 4 year old retriever , while we were away for an entire month. Overall, the experience was excellent, and we felt confident that our boy was in capable hands. From the start, communication was smooth and timely. Claire made sure to ask detailed questions about AJ’s routine, diet, preferences, and quirks, which gave us peace of mind. During the stay, she provided regular updates and photos, showing walks, playtime, and quiet moments — a thoughtful touch we really appreciated. Our dog seemed relaxed and happy upon our return. It was clear Claire took her responsibility seriously and genuinely cared for our pet’s well-being. She was by far our best boarding experience. We would absolutely recommend Claire to other pet owners looking for reliable and attentive care. We’re already planning to rebook for our next trip!
