“Absolutely incredible experience — easily one of our best in over a decade of using Rover! We received consistent, thoughtful updates that made us feel completely at ease. Rookie had a wonderful time, especially with his cousin, Gucci, also being there and their two lovable Goldens. We’re so grateful and can’t wait to book again!”
“We boarded our dog Daisy with Debbie and Robert for five days. We had not previously boarded Daisy, and I was nervous about how she would do. Debbie was great! She gave Daisy lots of attention and made her feel welcomed and loved. She sent us frequent updates to reassure us. I will book with them in the future when needed.”
“Very responsible and great communication! I was nervous leaving my little dog Carson with someone new especially since he has separation anxiety but Yamileth put my mind at ease. She even threw in a complimentary doggy drop-off. Thank you, Yamileth!”
“This is our second booking with Angie and she is amazing. Her and her family are great with babygirl and I would continue to book with her. 10/10 recommend.”
“I had the pleasure of meeting Ms. Rene prior to leaving my dog in her care for boarding. She made me feel at ease by providing updates and photos throughout my dog’s stay. Not only did my dog enjoy playtime in her yard, but Ms. Rene also took the time to walk her regularly. She was incredibly accommodating, and my boxer absolutely loved her. I am more than happy to entrust her with Luna again in the future. Thank you, Ms. Rene, for taking such wonderful care of Luna!”
“I couldn't have asked for a better experience as Jillian, and her family made my pups feel like part of the family right away. Thank you again for taking such great care of them, and allowing me to travel without worry!”
“Pat has a natural inclination towards outstanding pet care. Everything from a monitor to watch the animals while she steps out to get groceries to sitting in the backyard watching my dog circle around and around and around. She's easy to talk to and plan with. I can't possibly list all the details of her outstanding pet Care.”
“Shilpi was amazing!! I have never felt as comfortable leaving my fur baby when going away. Shilpi made the process so easy and gave us steps to make sure we remembered everything. While we were gone she sent many updates and pictures and I could tell my dog was safe and happy. They did a phenomenal job making sure she was eating well and enjoying her stay. When we picked her up too, she seemed so well kept and her fur was so soft and clean which hasn't always been the case when we have left her at other places. I will absolutely be leaving my dog with them again and I know I will feel 100% safe and happy doing so! Thank you to them for taking care of my fur baby ♥️”
“It is easy to see why Michele has so many five star ratings. She is great. She kept us updated and our Yorkie seemed to have a good time. We will be using her again when we are needing doggie care in this area.”
“I feel very blessed to find this family to watch my dog. Communication was always excellent. They sent pictures and messages while we were away. We returned a couple hours later than expected but they were very understanding. Our dog was happy to be back home with us and showed no signs of stress. I would happily use this family again.”
“Naimisha was an awesome host for Ziggy in the last few days. Her communication was frequent and so well organized that we knew that Ziggy was having a blast at Naimisha’s. We would totally recommend and would definitely be sending Ziggy over again. Thank you, Naimisha for your kindness and for caring for Ziggy so much over the last few days.”
“Had a wonderful experience with Ryan. The coordination of drop off and pick up was easy and communication throughout Chuck’s stay was great. We were reassured that our pup was getting the best care. I would wholeheartedly recommend booking with Ryan.”
“Patrisha took great care of Mocha during an unexpected last minute trip out of town. She was very responsive in her texts and sent updates (pics) daily. Mocha seemed to have a great time! Thank you!”
“Gypsy had a great time staying with Lee, Kyle and Harper! After we picked her up, she slept all day from so much playing. We were easily able to arrange flexible drop-off and pick-up times, and they provided plenty of photos and updates to ease our mind. I would definitely recommend them for watching your favorite pet.”
“I don’t even know where to begin. This was my first time using rover & my first time leaving my dog with a stranger…. That quickly changed because I feel like Shawna is now family. Shawna had me bring my dog about a week before to see if the vibe fit and the love was undeniable. Her and her husband welcomed my dog Phoebe with open arms and I instantly felt comfortable. I had some anxiety before my trip and she went above and beyond to ease my mind. I got daily check ins and photos and videos of my dog. My dog is very high maintenance and can’t be around any other pets which was a perfect fit to stay at her house. I cannot recommend Shawna enough I would trust her to watch any pet. I even joked that when I have a human baby I would try and still book her through rover. Thank you for the amazing experience.”
“Lena was very gracious to meet & greet with us on short notice. Her home is 100% set up for the comfort & safety of the pups! I could see from the video & pictures that Lena sent me that Leda was very comfortable during her stay. Our flight was cancelled an hour before boarding so we were unable to travel and returned to get Leda that same day. I was prepared to pay Lena for the entire weekend, but she graciously insisted that I should only pay her for that one day since we had such long day at the Atlanta airport and unable to take our weekend trip. I will definitely be using Lena for our sitter again.”
“Reyna was amazing! Her and her family were the sweetest and made my dog feel like family. She sent photos and videos and he had the best time! They went on adventures and definitely had an abundance of play time! She’s very communicative and we even had a meet and greet before hand to ensure everyone’s comfort before boarding. Highly recommend Reyna!”
“Kera and family were the BEST for my 5 month old puppy Jazz. it was her first time away from home and she did very well there playing with the children and not having significant anxiety by chewing or having accidents. I could not have asked for anything better on such short notice. I would recommend Kera without any hesitation to anybody, especially if they have a puppy.”
