“I have boarded my dog with Kristy twice now, and it’s been a great experience both times! My biggest issue with conventional boarding facilities was that no one seemed to be able to give Rocky his medications correctly, but Kristy has been on top of it. She communicates well, sends pictures, and updates frequently. Rocky is an anxious dog and can be very particular about his space, but Kristy didn’t have any issues with this and knows dog behavior well. As long as she’s available I’ll book in the future!”
“Always the best! This was the e third time we've left our pup with Avonlea, and every time he comes home happy and worn out from a fun time of playing. Thank you!!”
“Very responsive and proactive with sending pictures/walking Stanley to give us peace of mind. Very thankful and appreciative of Joseph’s help. Our dog seemed very comfortable and happy with his care!”
“Tilly came home exhausted and extremely well behaved. Will definitely be sending her back when I need someone to take care of her. Thanks for the help!”
“Emily is communicative and thoughtful! She sent my pictures throughout the day which was greatly appreciated. My dog has some separation anxiety but was comfortable staying with Emily and her family!”
“Francis was so happy at Erin’s home, he wasn’t ready to leave when I came to get him! Erin was quick to respond to all of my messages and made me feel like Francis was in great hands. I’m so happy to see him this way and I’ll definitely be using Erin again!”
“Katherine is amazing!! She took care of my dog over the weekend and kept me updated with pictures and brief messages. I know Kida was in good hands and highly recommend her to anyone.”
“As far as I can tell, Frances did a good job She wasn't good with sending updates or photos. I didn't know when she arrived or left. So late that night, I was concerned something happe.ed and my animals were alone. I messaged and received a response the next morning. She was good at communicating on Daturday but I don't know if she left early, late or on time. The water bowl was empty anf most likely had been for a while because it had been k locked over, which is what one of my girls diesn when its empty to say she needs water. With the time I got in, it would not have been empty if Frances left when she was supposed to amd had checked the water bowl.”
“Always a pleasure leaving Jake with Lauryn and Kadabra. They really get along and I constantly get updates on him throughout his stay. I will most certainly be a repeat customer. Thank you!!”
“Morgan was a great communicator and kept us in the loop while we were away every day with updates and proof of life photos 😂. She was honest about behavior/anxiety challenges that our pup was having, so we could provide some advice on things we knew would help settle that anxiety. Before long, they were besties! We’ll use Morgan again!”
“I was extremely pleased with my experience with Jenny! This was my first time using Rover so I was a little bit nervous, but she made the experience very easy. She sent me videos and pictures and updates on my pups often which I really appreciated. She has a big backyard with a fence that my dogs loved running around in. I definitely will be using Jenny again when I’m in the area.”
“Melissa was great to work with! Communication was easy with quick responses and follow ups to any questions we had. She sent pictures / updates each day while we were away which put this anxious dog momma to ease. We appreciate her taking care of our pup while we were away!”
“Cassandra was amazing! She made sure to ask plenty of questions to make sure she understood my dogs habits, took him for a walk every day, and provided me with pictures and updates on how he is doing. Not only that, on one of the nights he was with her, one of her neighbors had started to set off fireworks, which terrifies my dog. Cassandra had played classical music, and comforted him for over and hour until the fireworks had stopped. I had felt like she had treated him as her own, which was exactly what I was hoping for, but more than I could have asked for.”
“Sandra was the best! Sending pictures and updates everyday! Butters had the best care possible. I will book again in the future. Thank you very much providing best care.”
“Raven was a wonderful doggie host. Buster had a great time there and was happy relaxed and healthy when I picked him up. They even let him sleep on the bed 😊 thanks Raven! Looking forward to next time.”
“Goose seemed to absolutely love being over at Skylar’s with their dog Cooper. She sent videos and pictures each day, which I love. Always nice to see your pup having a good time while you are out of town! Would definitely recommend booking with Skylar. Goose didn’t seem to want to leave.”
About: I grew up caring for animals assisting my mom at an adoption agency and I am also a veterinary technician with 4+ years of experience. I work full time, but mostly evening shifts and only live 10 minutes from my job. So during the day, you pet will be with me. When I am at work, I take my lunch around 6pm and will go home and make sure they are properly cared for until I am off work that night. I have 2 cats that I will keep separated from any pets I have at my house to ensure 100% safety of animals in my care.
“We left Harley with Penny and she sent constant updates which was very comforting! Harley can be a pain so it was nice to feel good about her stay!”

Mornngside dog parents share their Rover experiences
Avonlea took great care of our senior dogs. We were very impressed by the frequency of communication and the attention. We would be very comfortable using her again!
Mindy was great with our dog. She communicated with us throughout her stay and took very good care of Stella.
Joseph was great! Very quick to respond to requests, kept my in the loop on how my dog was doing, and was flexible when I requested a later pick-up time that originally planned. Would recommend.
Kristy is wonderful with Bobby! She’s quick to respond to any texts and sends pictures throughout his stay. Highly recommended!
Very positive experience. Sara went above and beyond to care for our dogs. She gave them lots of love and attention.
Gabriella was so sweet and accommodated our last minute booking for Mila! She had a great house for hosting pets with a big fenced back yard, which Mila absolutely loved. She sent lots of pictures and made us feel very comfortable leaving Mila overnight ☺️ I’d 100% recommend Gabriella and will definitely book with her again!
Erin was amazing with my dogs! Regular updates and pics, took them on adventures and played with them. Gave them all the snuggles and love we couldn't because we were traveling. I will 100% be using her again!
She did amazing with him. She kept me updated every day! She was even able to bathe my dog! Oreo liked her so much!!
Very flexible. Very appreciative of her kindness and lots of dog friends to play with. And she was able to give medication appropriately.
Great experience with Mary Claire! She was responsive and attentive to all of my questions and requests. I will definitely use her again in the future!
Quinn was great!! Leaving your dogs with someone new for the first time is always a bit scary, but Quinn made me feel secure about leaving them knowing they were in great hands. When we got home, they clearly played a lot- they slept the whole day! He was super responsive to texts, and sent picture updates everyday. Thanks for taking such great care of our fur babies!!
Rachael was amazing! She provided regular updates and took such great care of my dog, Lou, while I was away. It made me feel at ease knowing my pup was in such good hands. Highly recommend her to anyone needing a caring, reliable sitter!
Won the jackpot finding Kelcie before a last minute trip! Kevin had so much fun with her pups and family and I couldn’t be more grateful for her 💕 We will see y’all soon!
Great dog sitter . Chanel had a great time with her. She is very communicative and was very flexible
Stephanie was very communicative with me, sent pictures and updates, came and picked up him up and dropped him off! Our pup definitely had a good time as when he got home he needed to catch up on some sleep! Will definitely book again!
Michele was the best !!! I would recommend her to anyone ! Calm , happy and good caring . I felt like I left my dog with the family ! I would recommend her to anyone !!!
Coral was amazing! My girl was a little scared at first but she messaged me to see if anything she could do to calm her nerves and was able to get her comfortable and she loved the rest of her time! Could tell there was lots of play time cause my girl came home and barely moved. Definitely will book with her again!
