“Natalie was absolutely wonderful. Moxie enjoyed his play time there immensely and got along with immediately with her beautiful fluffy dog Rory. Great first experience using rover.com. I will definitely rebook with Natalie next time I am in Nashville!”
“Tara was a wonderful home for our dog. You can tell how much she cares about the animals and does all she can to keep them active and happy. We absolutely will look to stay with Tara again should the need arise. Book with confidence…”
“Madeline is amazing! Our dog always loves seeing her and she treats him like he is her own pup. She keeps him active and always sends updates! I’ll definitely be booking with her in the future!”
“Amanda was the greatest, she sent pictures daily so I could see how my baby was doing. I was afraid she was going to have anxiety separation cause she has gotten so attached to me. she also sent a video so I could see how she was playing.”
“Ritch and his family were absolutely spectacular to deal with. Not only were they accommodating of some last minute setbacks on my end, but they went above and beyond to ensure that Jasper was happy and taken care of when he was feeling a little under the weather. Really looking forward to dealing with Ritch and his family again.”
“🐕🦺💕 I cannot say enough good things about Michelle and Bryce who watched our fur baby Rocky when we went on a family cruise Rocky is only a year old And he's a big baby weighing about 75 lb We have never left him with a pet sitter but Michelle and Bryce seem so kind and comforting from the first conversation we had, I knew the first time I met them that they were the perfect pet sitters for us they sent us plenty of pictures and videos and Rocky felt at home from the very beginning You could tell that they had a genuine love for him I will absolutely use them anytime that I need a pet sitter in the future what's we got back to our home it actually seemed like Rocky missed Michelle and Bryce which was just gave melconfirmation that they were the perfect pet sitters for us💕”
“Janelle is great with Cody. We got daily updates of their walks and adventures. I feel very comfortable with him staying there and plan to use Janelle regularly!”
“Allison is wonderful with Ivory. Ivory loved being there with her new buddy Priya. When we picked her up she was excited to see us, but sad to leave. Ivory has made herself some new friends. Almost like the favorite aunt type feeling when you visit family. That one family member that everyone can't help but love.”
“Apple had a great weekend stay at Rachael’s! She really enjoyed the large fenced in backyard. Rachael provided updates and pictures throughout the stay, which I so appreciated! Would definitely have Rachael watch Apple again.”
“Emily was fantastic with Minnie! Her home is incredibly dog-friendly, with plenty of beds, blankets, and a great backyard for play. Minnie stayed for one night, went on her walks, and I felt completely confident she was in good hands. If we’re ever back in Nashville, we would definitely book Emily again. Highly recommend!”
“Marisa was super nice working with us. We had a snow and ice storm the day before we left. She made arrangements for us so we didn’t miss our trip. Coco did well with her.”
“Rachyl was absolutely excellent! From start to finish, her communication was clear, timely, and reassuring. She was incredibly caring and kind, going above and beyond to make sure my dog, Hero, was well taken care of—especially since he was recovering from an injury. Not only did she give Hero the extra attention he needed while healing, but she also made sure he made it to his groomer appointment, which I really appreciated. It’s clear she genuinely cares for the dogs she watches. Hero clearly enjoyed his stay, and I had total peace of mind while he was with her. Rachyl will definitely be my first choice for any future boarding needs. Highly recommend!”
“Great communication. Justin did a great job watching Koda and sent photos of how he was doing. 5/5 would definitely recommend him if you’re looking for someone to watch your pup.”
“Carolina was amazing! I had to leave town unexpectedly for 10 days, and she took such great care of my dog. She sent regular pictures and videos, and I could tell he was happy, relaxed, and well cared for. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. Highly recommend!”
“My pup had the best time with Madeline! He came home happy and sleepy and enjoyed lots of walks and cuddles. He gets anxious when I board him and Madeline did such a good job making sure he was cozy.”
“Megan and Kerry were great! They took great care of Bud and we could tell he was very happy. We are very happy Bud had a friend to play with and took plenty of walks. Thank you so much :)”

This was Maggie and luna’s first stay with Jonathan and it was great! Communication was simple, meet n greet went well, the dogs had a great time. They got plenty of exercise and I know they had fun. Relieved to find such great care on Rover and will definitely use again.
Nia was great! She asked all relevant information about my babies prior to booking and ensured that she fulfilled their needs during their stay. Nia was very communicative and attentive to my dogs needs, and she was also super sweet! She even allowed me to pick up my babies slightly earlier than expected due to my flight arriving early. Definitely will book Nia again!
This is my second time having Robin watch Sadie and she is just absolutely fabulous. She takes Sadie on walks and send photos and videos and it’s just been so kind. On top of that I asked her last night at the last minute if she would keep Sadie overnight and she without hesitation said of course she would love to. I would definitely recommend Robin and I will continue using her without a doubt!!!
Jenny was the best! Her and fiancée watched our doodle Ollie and 2 cats while we took a much needed vacation. Ollie had plenty of walks and cats lived large with lots of attention. I enjoyed the many photos and concerns for kitties who think it’s cool not to eat when in a new environment. Thanks for making them feel at home!!
Joyce was great with Kenzie. I felt confident that Kenzie was getting her medications while staying with Joyce. Joyce was very accommodating with scheduling and Kenzie’s recent special dietary needs. She sent plenty of photos and videos of Kenzie while I was away - I felt like I was there with them! Kenzie clearly enjoyed herself while staying with Joyce.
Christine was wonderful with Kenzie. She was accommodating to Kenzie’s activity restrictions (as she’s been healing from an injury) and recent special diet. Kenzie not only got her medications, but a lot of love. She clearly had a good time with Christine and didn’t want to leave.
