1. Melissa B.
“Melissa was so accommodating for my last minute overnight trip. She updated me throughout the day and made me feel like my puppy was so well cared for! I picked my puppy up and she has been sleeping the whole day. She is definitely tuckered out from her fun day/night! Will definitely be using her again.”
2. Maria Doniessa D.
“Maria, Eric and Pennie were amazing hosts. They kept us posted multiple times a day with great photos and videos of our dog Bertie playing non stop in the yard with Pennie, who’s is the friendliest and prettiest Husky Shepard mix. They have a pristine home and a great yard for play. I would highly recommend this family and will definitely be using them again for Bertie’s next vacation.”

5. Alexis F.
“Here’s a stellar review you can use for Alexis: Alexis is absolutely amazing! She recently took care of my cavapoo, Maxi, and I couldn’t be more impressed. Maxi is a bundle of energy and can be a little particular, but Alexis handled her with such care, patience, and love. She kept me updated with photos and messages throughout, which made me feel completely at ease while I was away. When I returned, Maxi was happy, calm, and clearly well cared for. I highly recommend Alexis to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and loving dog sitter. Maxi can’t wait to see her again!”

8. Patrick & Karyn L.
“Patrick & Karyn were amazing boarders to our mini Schnauzer. We are very happy. Our little girl enjoyed them and their dog, Levi. We received daily pictures of the many wonderful games they played, and trips that they took her on. The cuddles and love that she was given show in how relaxed she is once we got her back at home. We are very happy to have found such a wonderful home away from home for our pup. We will not hesitate to use Patrick and Karyn again in the future. They are top boarders!!”
9. Heather S.
“I give Heather a five star rating. She kept me updated with some pictures which was great. It was my first time with Heather and I will use her next time needed. My 1 year old dog came home exhausted with all the exercise and stimulation he obviously received. Great experience. Thank you Heather.”

15. Patrick C.
“This is my first time with Patrick. Patrick was so welcoming on taking care of our family baby Hammy. Hammy is a male Pomeranian. When we first see Patrick, Patrick told us to release the leash so Hammy can get familiar with his house. As soon as I released the leash, Hammy was already making friends with another furry friend and running around in his house. Patrick has a wonderful, gorgeous fenced backyard and different varieties of beautiful plants. Patrick's huge backyard is an oasis for my Hammy and even for me. Patrick even gave me some of his beautiful Dahlias from his garden, when I went to pick up Hammy. I highly recommend Patrick!!”
16. Heather K.
“It was a pleasure to have heather watch over Bruno.I was updated throughout my trip. Bruno seen so happy. Pictures and videos were sent to me and I was calmed and able to enjoy my vacation knowing he is in good hands.”
17. Gina I.
“I am extremely satisfied that I did not have to board my cat and have him left in a cage all week. He had plenty of space to go exploring and Gina sent pics to me. He also apparently jumped into bed with her daughter every night. He is used to sleeping in a bed with us and he is very friendly so I was only a little surprised that he made new friends so quickly. I am extremely satisfied with the care he received. I will not hesitate to use Gina again.”
18. Toni R.
“Toni & her family were amazing!! She has a big back yard where she would send me pictures of our dog daily running around and playing with her dogs!! She’s very responsive and cares for your pups!! I would get images and updated throughout the day which I really appreciated! Her kids are also adorable and play with your pups! I’d highly recommend Toni to anyone and we will be using her again!!”
19. Catherine P.
“We have been using Catherine now for almost 3 years and there is a reason for that. She is a wonderful person who loves our dog as if it were her own. We pull up to her house and Murray knows exactly where he is and gets so excited. As soon as he sees Catherine walking towards the car he starts running and pulling on the leash because he can't get to her fast enough! At this point he doesn't even know us anymore! Catherine has taken care of Murray when we had to go away and he had a broken paw. She sent us a picture of him snuggled with her that made me cry because I thought she was getting all my Murray love! We now call her mommy Catherine. If I say to him, "want to go see mommy Catherine?" he starts jumping all over me and is excited as can be. This is what tells me that Catherine is the best dog sitter for Murray. She sends us pictures everyday of Murray playing and resting which makes my husband miss him more but gives me so much comfort knowing he is having a great vacation too and I then can enjoy mine. Gone are the days of the kennels! Our furbabies are so very lucky for companies like Rover. Never hesitate to contact Catherine and leave your baby with her. She is the absolute best! We are forever grateful that she has come into our lives.”
20. Kathryn C.
“"I just boarding my dog Aston for a few days stay with Kathryn and couldn't be happier!! Kathryn and her family treated my Aston like their own. Its a home-setting which is best for my Aston as he has never been in a kennel setting and does not like to be in a crate/cage. Kathryn has a lovely home and fenced backyard for the dogs to play and toys/beds in every room of the house" Highly recommend!! - Arlene. D”
