“I booked this last minute and had a fantastic experience. Excellent communication and easy pickup/drop off. My dog got lots of attention and love during his overnight stay.”
2. Carrie B.
“Carrie boarded my dog for 5 days. Carrie walked, played, sent pictures and took good care of her. When I picked my dog up, she was energetic, happy and glad to see me. I was very pleased with how Carrie took care of my dog, highly recommend her and would hire her again.”
3. Kathy J.
“Ruby loved her stay with Kathy and Roy. She didn't want to come home! Kathy and Roy treated her as if she were their own. Lots of playtime and attention. Plus, daily updates with pictures and videos. Ruby and I couldn't be happier with the experience. I highly recommend Kathy and will use her in the future.”
4. Marley B.
“Marley was a wonderful choice to keep our 8 year old Havanese, Buddy. She is very considerate and caring. Buddy stayed with her for 5 days and we received pictures along with an update just about every day. We will leave Buddy with Marley again in August and at Christmas, if we go away for the holidays.”
5. Marybeth & Russ C.
“We have had Mary Beth care for our pooch on at least 5 different occasions in the last year. Mary Beth and her husband rapidly learned to bond with Aspen. Even though Aspen is a shy dog, she seemed comfortable with them quickly. Mary Beth also has a fenced yard which is hard to come by in this area of Florida, and the outdoor neighborhood is pleasant for dog walking.”
6. Erin E.
“Erin was a perfect host for our pup and we will definitely use her services again! She communicated with us frequently and sent photos of our pup having a great time while we were away.”
7. viktoryia s.
“Huge thank you to Viktoryia for hosting my anxious little terrier while I was on a business trip. Her dog, Coco, took my dog under her wing. My dog had the run of the house which was wonderful as she insists on snuggling with her humans on couches / beds or wherever they happen to be. Thank you, Viktoryia!”
8. Rajee W.
“Rajee was genuinely fantastic in every way. Like many other pet owners, our dog is cared for and loved as a deeply-treasured member of our family. When we need to take a trip that he can't join us on, we're extremely particular about the person who takes care of him. We want someone who will treat him as close to how we treat him as possible. That means someone who's happy to have him cuddled up close to you, happy to accommodate his special food needs, happy to take him on long walks, and, most of all, grateful to have him around adding huge amounts of sunshine to their days and nights. In addition to doing all of those things, Rajee did every one of them with a vibrant sense of joy. She cared for Bentley, and showered him with love and affection, very nearly as much as we do. She regularly took pictures and videos of him that she shared with us -- and, more notably, eagerly told us stories about how amazing and/or hilarious he is with honest excitement in her voice... as if he were a member of her family. Bentley is normally perceptively stressed when we're gone. In all of the pictures and videos though, he was perceptibly happy instead with Rajee. There really is no higher recommendation than that. We can't say enough positive things about Rajee as a caretaker for your four-legged family member... and we feel especially lucky to have found her.”
9. Cherolyn M.
“What a wonderful stay Charlee had with Cherolyn. She spoiled him and took amazing care of him I never worried the second I left him with her for two weeks! Cherolyn is a one of a kind person and we are greatful to have found her on Rover. Thank You Again for everything.”
10. Marcela R.
“Marcela was just awesome with Charlie. He is a very active run free kind of dog and she had him running. You could almost see him smiling in the videos she sent us of him! He had the time of his life. Would highly recommend her for your pet. We will definitely be using her again.”
11. Adina B.
“Great dog sitter. She kept my 8 month old Westie for 2 days, in her home. Maya loved her. She sent me lots of pictures, took her for walks, threw the ball, let her watch animal and dog TV and let her cuddle with her on sofa. She’s just awesome. I highly recommend her.”
12. Monica R.
“My dog spent 9 days with Monica. It’s the first time I’ve used a boarder. I was able to relax on my vacation without worrying about my dog. Great atmosphere and Bear loved it. Highly recommend!”
13. Christina W.
“I highly recommend Christina as a pet sitter! She has a natural way with animals and truly goes above and beyond to make sure they feel loved and cared for. She has experience as a pet owner with dogs, turtles/tortoises, and bird. I’ve personally seen her give extra special attention to my kitten, making sure he was using up his kitten energy by playing with him and seeing him happy. Christina is responsible, attentive, and genuinely enjoys spending time with pets. Whether you're looking for someone to take your pup on a walk, check in on your bird, or provide loving care while you're away, you can trust Christina to treat your pet like her own!”
14. Adam W.
“Wonderful with my dog!”
15. Evelyn R.
“First time that I left my dog for 3 days and it was an amazing experience. My dog likes it so much. Evelyn is a great dog sitter and she loves dogs. Text me every day to let me know how my dog is doing with pictures and I recommend her 100%. Thank you again Evelyn. You are awesome.”
16. Debra F.
“Debra is absolutely amazing. She took wonderful care of out Pug, Gracie. She sent pictures regularly and updated us on how Gracie was doing. She even gave her a bath before we picked her up. I would highly recommend Debra, as she is caring and absolutely loves dogs”
17. Stephany B.
“Stephany did a fantastic job taking care of our cat, Tom. Daily updates, with photos, were sent. Tom acclimated very well. I would highly recommend you board your cat or dog with Spephany! Thanks again!”
18. Anne S.
“We were very pleased with Anne’s care for our dog . Our dog had emergency surgery 3 weeks before the dog sitting. We reviewed the extras that Sophie would need - exercises, activity restrictions, special accommodations which Anne felt she could handle. She kept in touch with us via texts & photos. We returned home to a happy , healthy dog. We would definitely use Anne in the future!”
19. Floyd & Connie K.
“We will definitely use Floyd again. He really made our babies feel at home. He sent pictures every day which made me feel at ease. Our babies were nice and clean when we picked them up and showed no signs of mistreatment. Thanks to Floyd and look forward to using him again ❤️”
20. Linda C.
“Linda did an excellent job with Bogie. I booked last minute due to hurricane Milton messing up our original plans. We needed to get out to a wedding in MN. I was nervous leaving him with someone I just met, and Linda made me feel that all was fine with daily pictures and notes. Thank you. Jean P”
