“Aaren & Jordon are truly wonderful puppy sitters! Throughout my pup’s stay with them, I received multiple updates during the day of the fun activities they were getting into. We were put at ease and loved to see our girl so happy while we were apart! We are thankful for them for welcoming our pup into their home with open arms.”

“We love having Matt take over my sweet girl while we are out of town. He always does a great job!! Absolutely love all the pictures and updates - thank you Matt!!”

“Alex is so kind and provides the best care. My 5 year old Aussiedoodle is very nervous around new people and dogs. Alex was so mindful of her needs and helped her settle in quickly to a new place while we were away. She sent photos and updates which made me feel more at ease while on our trip. I will definitely board my dog with her again. I can’t recommend her enough!”

“Tiffany is amazing! This was the first time I boarded my Simba. I was so nervous. However, Simba was very well taken care of. Tiffany kept me updated with texts and pictures. She was professional and caring toward not only Simba but me as well. Simba truly enjoyed his stay. I don’t think he wanted to come home! I will definitely use Tiffany’s services again. If you want a reliable, patient, caring, and professional person to care for your pet, Tiffany is your person!!!”

“Donetta is the absolute best! She provided regular updates with photos over the course of my pup’s stay. She creates an environment that made my pup feel right at home.

Highly recommend! Will definitely book again!”

“Ashley was absolutely amazing with Onyx over the Christmas and New Year’s holiday! She kept me updated with pictures and messages throughout my time away, which gave me so much peace of mind. Onyx loved playing with her kids and looked so adorable cuddling with everyone, it was clear he felt right at home. When Onyx struggled a bit at night and was barking, Ashley was incredibly patient and kind. She reached out to ask for advice and even allowed calming treats to be dropped off while I was away, which I truly appreciated. She followed all of my special instructions perfectly, including giving him his Christmas presents on Christmas Day and feeding him a special holiday meal. I’m so grateful for the love and care she showed Onyx and would absolutely trust her again. Highly recommend Ashley to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate sitter!”

Would highly recommend to anyone who is looking for a loving place for their dogs. We used the boarding services and had a peace of mind knowing our dog was taken care of. She communicated very much and sent plenty of photos and videos while we were away. Our dog even met some new furry friends.

This was our first time using Rover and we were very happy to find Julie and Eric. Their communication was great, they were very enthusiastic, kind, and attentive with Tanner. We felt comfortable knowing he was being well cared for while we were away. Tanner was his normal, happy self when we picked him.

Evie was understanding when we had to cut our trip short, shortening the boarding time needed. She was flexible as I notified her on a daily basis that we would not be starting that day. When we dropped Brady off, we were happy to see that Evie lives in a well kept house in a safe neighborhood. She took really good care of Brady, giving him daily supplements, feeding him twice a day and taking him out for walks and plenty of bathroom breaks. Brady even got along with her friendly dog, named Cupid. She shared photos and a video of them playing. She's among the best boarders we've had on Rover.

My dog’s stay with Taylor and her husband was great! She sent lots of updates and photos that showed my girl was really comfortable and cared for, and they were really flexible about pickup/drop off needs. I will definitely be reaching out to them again in the future!

Zahra was fantastic in every way! Awesome communication. My anxious pup was so well cared for every day that I was gone, and she was able to accommodate me on short notice after my other sitter ghosted me right before the holidays. I will absolutely hire her again and can't recommend her enough! Your furry friends are in great hands with her -- she truly treats them as her own -- and I am deeply appreciative of the care she gave Lacey. Would give six stars if I could!
