“Absolutely amazing! First time using Rover and leaving our sweet boy somewhere else overnight. Rachel made us feel so much better. She sent photos and messages daily and was extremely responsive. Mac loved her and her family!”
2. Marylou S.
“This was our first time booking boarding through Rover. Marylou exceeded our expectations! She arranged for a meet and greet before our drop off, took wonderful care of our dog and sent updates and photos regularly. Our dog was very happy when with her and we were able to enjoy our vacation knowing she was well taking care off. Already booked with Marylou for our next trip!”

“Natha was very communicative and took great care of Brody. He had a great time playing with both her Aussies and came home very tired (which if you have an aussie, you know is a beautiful thing). She sent updates and pictures throughout his stay.”
5. Elliot C.
“Elliot and Dominique took such wonderful care of our pups! This was our first time ever boarding Gabe and Angela Basset. They loved Elliot and Dominique from the minute they met them. They took such great care of our dogs. Loved the daily texts letting us know how they were doing, including adorable pictures of them! They even sent report cards home with them. Would definitely leave our pups with them again!”
6. Amy A.
“Amy took such great care of our Leah ❤️ We went back home to Texas and received updates with photos daily. From the beginning, at the meet and greet I knew she would be in the best loving hands. Amy loves your fur babies like her own, we would absolutely book with her again. I highly recommend her to anyone needing to board their babies with someone they can trust.”

“I highly recommend Alara as a pet sitter. She is warm, professional, and an obvious animal lover. The booking process through Rover was easy, and Alara was flexible with meeting and sitting times. She pays great attention to detail and keeps you updated with anecdotes, photos, and videos. Tito was happy, cared for, and received plenty of exercise, playtime, and love. If you’re a pet owner looking for a trustworthy sitter, look no further than Alara.”
11. Nya Jae L.
“Nya was so sweet while watching my dog. I wasn't sure where her building was and she ran to where I was so that I would not be late to church. She took care of Nikki and said that he was such a good dog. I will definitely use her again and she is sweet as pie and you can tell that she loves taking care of dogs. Thank you Nya”
12. Melissa J S.
“Melissa was great! She hosted my dog Cora for four days while I was on vacation and I was never worried about how Cora was doing. She sent updates and pictures on a regular basis. I could tell that Cora was happy, active and well taken care of. No regrets and I will definitely use Melissa in the future and recommend her to friends!”

16. Lesley J.
“I enjoyed to see the pictures and videos that she send me update daily. My dog enjoyed to stay her place. She did great communicate. Many thanks for care my dog. That is my first experience to send my dog to Rover app. I am glad I did. That’s worth it.”
17. Amy G.
“Amy has been an absolute blessing! We love how Amy pays attention to detail. She wanted to ensure she knew our two senior dogs, from his treats and routine to how they like to play and interact with other dogs like a play date. We never worried a minute while was out of town because she had everything under control. Knowing that our two dogs were comfortable staying at her house but could stay in their routine at her home was such a comfort. We highly recommend Amy and her pet-sitting services to ALL my friends with furry people. So don’t worry about stressing or planning a trip to the kennel; just let Amy take care of your little family at her home. And she will update you as often as you’d like regarding your pets and their behavior. So get in touch with her today!! At last, thank you, Amy, for taking such good care of our senior dogs as yours!”
18. Taylor B.
“Taylor did a great job watching our 2 dogs! She sent us pictures and details about their days and nights. We felt they were in good hands which allowed us to be able to focus on our family vacation. Thank you Taylor! We will be calling you again!”
19. Tetiana S.
“Tetiana was wonderful with my two pups! We did a meet and greet ahead of time and it was immediately clear that she loves dogs and is great at caring for them. She was very accommodating with the drop off and pick up time, and then during the stay she provided frequent photos and text updates. Overall, really great dog sitter who I would highly recommend to others!”
20. Xiting Y.
“Our first time taking a trip without our beloved Rocky. We could not have left him in better hands. The daily updates were great, and he seemed to have a great time. I highly recommend Xiting and would use her services again if she is available.”
