“Ron was quick to accommodate my request and always timely with his responses! I felt comfortable leaving Archer with Ron and he seemed like he had a fun time while I was at work.”
“This daycare has been great for my super fearful rescue who came from a puppy mill/hoarding situation so she has no idea how to be a dog. They have been SO patient with her and having somewhere affordable she can go while I work 12 hour shifts has been such a relief I can't even verbalize the magnitude of difference it has created in our lives. I'm telling anyone and everyone who will listen about this place. Cannot recommend enough.”
“I can't thank Griffin enough for taking care of my dog on such short notice. They were incredibly accommodating and provided excellent care. Highly recommended!"”
“Allison was fantastic! Ozzie adored her and her dog, and by the third day when I told him he was going to see her he got excited. She kept me updated with lots of photos and was also very understanding of my shifting drop-off and pick-up hours due to the nature of the daytime event I was working. I will definitely be sending Ozzie to stay with her again in the future, and would recommend her to anyone.”
“Thank you so much for taking such great care of him. He loves hanging out with you. It's funny because we will tell him where he's going in the morning and he gets so excited!”
“Great communications (several check ins, including picture) to let me know my mini goldendoodle Enzo was settling in with the other dogs and doing well during his first day. Enzo was calm and confident when I picked him up - indicating it was a good experience for him too :) Thanks!”
“You just can’t complain about a tired and happy dog! Quite pleased with Ryan and Team as they had both our dogs for a long day today. Would recommend and use again!”

“Kacey loves Brittany and her family. He gets so excited every time we drive to her house and is always worn out after playing all day when we pick him up!”
“Kayla has been such a great sitter for my fur baby! She is super sweet and let's me know how is doing throughout the day. She has a clear love for animals and my sweet boy is always happy to see her! She even watched him over the holiday for me and he loved it! 10/10 would recommend!”
About: I’ve been dog sitting for friends dogs for over 10 years and continue to do so. I walk my dog regularly as well as neighbor dogs. I am retired so I spend a lot of time with mine and my neighbors dogs. I have the freedom of time to spend with your fur baby I have a fenced yard and a very friendly dog in my home. My neighborhood is very dog friendly with sidewalks and parks near. I can crate dogs if necessary.
“Lindsey was wonderful with our pup, Carlton! He spent several hours exploring in the amazing backyard with the sweetest dog, Stella. Love Lindsey’s care of our boy!”
“This was our first time using Rover after a bad experience boarding our dog. Minnie had a great time with Sarah and her pups. We already booked our next stay with her.”
“Kyle was wonderful. My dog has anxiety and gets nervous when meeting new dog sitters and dogs. But my dog liked Kyle right away. The 2nd day at drop off he went running to Kyle when seeing him. That made me so happy, it is such a relief when your dog loves the dog sitter and you know that you can leave him without any worries. We will definitely be using them often.”

“Ann is absolutely great! I appreciate the fact that she's taken the time and effort required to create an environment that is both fun and safe for dogs & cats. My dog loves being there, and he especially loves playing with her dog. Ann's love for dogs is obvious. She care's for my dog like he's her own.”
“Jay and Katie are so great! Archie has an awesome time every time he goes over there. He has met lots of new friends and gets a ton of love. He always is excited to go there. They send pictures throughout the day to update, communicate well, and are always very flexible and kind. So happy we found a good petsitter for my pup!”
“Really enjoyed meeting Greg for the first time. This was our dog's first stay at someone else's house and Greg did a wonderful job. Looking forward to having Greg watch our dog in the future.”
“Pamela is such a blessing. Highly recommend. Our dogs know where they are going before we get there and go berserk to spend time with Pamela, and her dog, Zeke.”
“Paige was amazing. She helped me out with pet care when I was in town for a conference and my dog came home happy and satisfied from a long day of play and attention. She was so communicative and helpful and my pup had a great time with her. She clearly has a love for taking care of animals and I would definitely book her again!”

Merriam dog parents share their Rover experiences
Very communicative and friendly to interact with. My pup is veryyy much a Velcro dog and shy when it comes to strangers. But he seemed to do really well with Rus! It felt great knowing he got his walks in too ❤️
Kayla came in clutch with a last minute booking when a previous sitter backed out! Shadow left happy! Will certainly be using Kayla again in the future!
Kelsi was so great!! This was my first time using Rover and she was very responsive and sent plenty of updates during the day!
Stephanie was timely, kind, and very communicative with our pups. She shared great pictures along the way and we could tell she took great care of them for us. We wouldn’t think twice to book her again!
