“Idalis and the family were absolutely amazing. Constant communication and beyond accommodating. Captain had so much fun and I think he’s mad I took him from Logan and them!”

“Mimi did an incredible job boarding our dog. We could tell Joy was enjoying herself while she was there. Loved all the pictures and videos she sent daily. Highly recommend!”

“Christine watched Sampson, our 160lb English Mastiff for a week while we were out of state. She was great with him, sending photos everyday and keeping in contact with how he was adjusting. She was very understanding when we had to pick him up later than anticipated due to our flight being delayed. We would definitely use Christine again.”

“Elisabeth is the german shepherd whisperer! She was communicative, attentive, and very open to Parker and all of his weirdness! I will definitely be using her for future bookings and all german shepherd peoples can def trust her with their babies. Thank you for all the love you showed to my baby!”

“Poliana did an amazing job watching our puppy! She has been super communicative since even before we booked and through to the end of our boarding. We received updates, photos, videos, and feedback throughout her stay. We could tell that she really loves dogs and takes exceptional care of them. I would highly recommend Poliana and we will definitely be booking with her again.”

“Such a wonderful experience working with Andrew! Our boys Bodie and Remy were well looked after and enjoyed being accepted as part of their family! Great updates, pictures, communication and coordination make him our favorite and our go-to for any future boardings! Thank you Andrew!”


“Britney is so sweet and loving. She took great care of my Layla for almost 2weeks. She took time to take pictures of her to send me and even brought me her stuff that was left behind.I recommend her for your fur babies.”

“Oakley had a great time with Teresa and her family! He is very high energy, but they provided him with plenty of attention to keep him happy! She also kept me updated throughout his stay on how he was doing. It was a great first time rover experience for Oakley and I!”


“Roseli is a wonderful hostess to assorted little dogs. Donatello stayed with her for a week and came home happy after playing with the other guests and looking very handsome after Roseli groomed and bathed him. Roseli sent several photos and videos throughout the day, so I always knew what he was doing (and the home cooked food he was eating).His stay with Roseli was a very special experience and I hope he will come back in the near future.”
“Amanda is fantastic! She was very accommodating with our schedule and great with drop off/pick up. Obi had a great time playing with friends, he was tuckered out after! She was great sending photos and updates throughout our trip. Thanks Amanda!”


“I was so happy to find such a wonderful family to take care of my furbaby. I was able to enjoy myself knowing he was in great hands. They did a great job of sending pics to let me know my baby was happy!”

“So grateful for Karrie!! She didn’t hesitate at all to take our sweet senior dog last minute for 8 days after our other sitter fell through. She sent photos/videos and provided a loving and relaxed environment for our girl to retreat while we were away! She is great, we loved her! Would happily use her services again :)”

“Kymry is truly amazing. She made me feel at ease when dropping off my puppy Apollo kept me updated and was the sweetest. I can’t thank her enough. Apollo had a great time and made new friends. I definitely will be re-booking with her for the future visit..”

“Sprout was injured when she went to the sitter, so I was a little worried. Clair took care of her and gave her meds when scheduled. When I picked my pup, she looked well and happy.”

“It was my 1st time using Rover app and was so happy to find Tiffany. She took great care of our Lab Koda and she was great .she kept us updated on how Koda was doing and sent pictures as well. Would definitely rebook with her again.”

“Ashley was great with Macy! She had no problem with giving Macy time to warm up to her dog, sent updates and pictures, and made me feel 100% comfortable leaving my girl with her. I would/will use her again in the future if the opportunity arises.”

“Alyssa was great! Everything you would want in a sitter- very responsive, flexible about timing for drop-off and pick-up, and a genuine animal lover. She sent us multiple pictures daily with detailed descriptions of how the day went for our dog. I could tell our dog was in great hands, and we will use Alyssa again in the future!”
“Loved that Jerry made me feel comfortable about leaving my older dog. He is shy and just goes with the flow so I was worried about how he would mesh with the other doggies. But he had a great time. I even got photos so I knew he was fine. I love the large yard that he can run in and the fact that someone is with him and he is not home alone. Would definitely book again.”
