“Houdini and Max enjoyed their stay with Ashley. I felt confident in her ability to take care of my pups, especially my old pup that takes meds daily. Thank you, Ashley! We will definitely use Ashley again in the future.”
“Paul and his son did an amazing job caring for my dog! I felt like we were long lost friends by the time I left when I dropped Kitty off because they are so personable and kind! Paul sent videos and kept in contact with me throughout her stay. Paul went above and beyond by making Kitty some homemade food when I miscalculated and she ran out. I would hands down recommend Paul to anyone looking for a sitter that pays individual attention to your fur baby!”

“This was our first Rover experience and it was awesome! Our beagle Penny loved Aryal! Definitely rebooking with her and we are just thrilled that we found such a wonderful sitter for our furbaby!! Everything went so smoothly - from the initial meeting to picking up Penny when we returned. It is such a relief to know our furry family member is being treated so well and we don't have to worry about her since Aryal has so much experience with dogs!”

“I have now used Jena both to let Raven out while I am away from home and to board overnight at her home and plan to continue with both. I take Raven regularly to a doggy daycare in Coralville twice a week, but Jena is an amazing option (and huge help) for late nights when I get stuck at work or quick trips out of town. She clearly cares deeply for all animals, especially dogs, and I appreciate knowing that Rave is taken care of as she would be at home. Jena is also very patient with her poodle anxiety and keeps me updated on how she is doing as I am a nervous dog mom all the way. :)”

“Amanda and her family are amazing. Always go above and beyond and will love your pet like their own. My dog has some health issues, and they have never hesitated to give medicine and even coordinated with my vet while I was away. It's as close to a home away from home as you can get.”

“Rizzo had a great day hanging out with Adela and her fam. Lots of outdoor time in her amazing backyard. Great communication with Adela. Thanks for another great stay! 🐾”

“Lori and her husband were amazing! Our puppy was worn out after having a weekend of playing with their dogs. We got updates with pics which is always reassuring when you’re a worry wart lol Will definitely be contacting again for future boarding needs!!”

“This was our second time leaving our pup with Ming and Makenna. She had a blast playing with all of the other dogs, and they were great about keeping us updated while we were away. We will definitely take our dog to them again and would highly recommend!”

“Windsor just came back from a week stay with Tiffany and Soriya and must have had the best time, He’s done nothing but sleep all day! He always comes home tired so that tells me he enjoys his stay with them!”

“My wife and I LOVED Travis and Danielle. We booked them for five days and everything went smoothly. They adapted extremely well to our vocal Siberian husky and seemed to enjoy her company. They had a fenced in yard with playmates that kept her company while we were away which was nice. They are very thorough about asking ALL the questions on how to take care of your dog, they send you a questionnaire that’s all about your dogs needs and quirks which was so comforting to know they actually care - and this was before even having her. They are very prepared and send you a bunch of photos through a google drive link if you request daily updates (the photos were hilarious). They live in a great location and have outgoing personalities that’s hard not to like. They gave us a great experience so we will be booking with them for now on. Five stars all around, you will not regret choosing them!”

“Mule was so wonderful with our two dogs! She communicated regularly and sent lots of pictures and even some videos. She's very attentive and the pictures showed how much fun everyone was having.”

“Had to book someone to watch my dog last minute. He seemed to have so much fun at Jason's and I'm definitely going to rebook in the future when I need to go out of town again. Definitely recommend him to everyone.”

“This was our first time using Rovr and Ali couldn’t have been better to work with. She was very flexible and took great care of our dog. She sent plenty of photos so we knew he was doing okay. I would highly recommend her and know that if we use Rovr again, we will gladly use Ali’s service again.”

“Debra was wonderful with my Dezzie girl. She made her feel right at home and sent frequent updates . She was exactly what we hoping for and more. We are looking forward to many more visits with Debra in the future.”

“We had the best experience with Trish! She watched our two goldendoodles for two weeks while we were away. She sent several photo updates everyday - of them getting snuggles, playing fetch in their backyard, getting yummy homemade treats - which showed that she was taking such great care of our pups. Trish even brushed our dogs routinely which we didn’t ask her to do! She was so warm, welcoming, responsive, and trustworthy from the first message to the final pickup. She clearly adores dogs, well definitely book her again and we would strongly recommend her to anyone!”
“Madison was so great with Geode. He had some anxiety and she handled it so well and he was just part of the family! Loved it and have already rebooked in a few weeks!”

“Laylah watched my dog Oreo for a week while I was away on a trip. She sent pictures and videos of him, and I could tell that he was having the best time! We will definitely be booking with her again!!”
