“Kyle took such good care of my baby Reba! Kyle had high communication with me regarding an ear infection that my pup was struggling with and even took her to the vet when she needed to be seen. My pup was at Kyle’s for over a week and had the happiest demeanor when I picked her up. It was clear to me that she was treated well and had a good time. I’ll definitely use Kyle again for Reba’s care.”

“An excellent experience. They provided great communication with updates and photos of the dog. I could tell immediately upon picking up my dog that she enjoyed her stay with them. I plan to use them again for future travels.”

“Lan was an amazing dog sitter. This is my first time using Rover, and to be honest, my first time leaving my dog with anyone that wasn’t a friend or family so I was a bit nervous. Lan was friendly and helpful and sent pictures of Zoey about an hour after I left which help put my mind at ease. Over all a really good experience.”

“Miriam is great! She’s been watching our dogs for a while now and they always look forward doggy daycare with her. We forgot to pack 1 day of food for our dogs and Miriam made sure they didn’t go hungry. She’s super responsive and attentive to our needs. Would totally recommend Miriam for any rover needs.”

“This was my first Rover experience and Bishop ended up getting hurt before his stay which led to several last minute medication and cone wearing requirements, but Debbie was totally accommodating and took amazing care of him!! Great photos and updates and she knows dogs really well! Highly recommend!!!”

“Katie was amazing! She kept us in the loop the whole time and had great communication. Even though our dog chewed the door frame a bit, Katie was very understanding and didn't blame our pup. She has 2 other dogs Wally and Daphne. She has a fenced in backyard. Our dog got along with them both. They are both older dogs and calm. Highly recommend Katie to anyone needing a sitter.”

“This is the place to bring your pups for great care, a fun backyard and awesome support. Do not hesitate to book, your dog(s) will have a blast. They are willing to work with all types of dogs, so check in with them! Thank you!”

“We love Stan! Our dog loves it there- he gets along great with Stan’s resident dogs. My husband and I love that Stan is great about sending updates and pictures and that he clearly loves dogs. We highly recommend him!”

“Luke and Rachel were great with the dogs! Excellent communication and they sent me pictures and updates so I could relax and enjoy my vacation and know the dogs were well cared for!”

“Monika is an animal lover. Our pup received personalized and loving care with Monika. We were in good hands and so grateful for her care. We received frequent updates and pics, ensuring us that our pup was happy. 5 stars!”

“Julie, Jesse, and their family took such great care of my Pepper! It was my first time boarding him but he was in such great hands. I got lots of communication/updates, photos, and clarifying questions when things arose. Pepper got top notch treatment!”

“Eva has watched Topher for us twice and has been great both times! She is attentive to his needs and provides photos and updates throughout the time spent with him.”

“Beatrix had a blast with her new friends Nicole and David. They were great at communication and sending updates of videos and pictures. We will definitely be using them again.”

“Shevon & Ian took excellent care of our senior dog, Gunter! He had an extended stay with them while we were out of town, and they sent great pictures and updates. They have a great fenced in yard and helped Gunter with all his medications. Shevon & Ian are great communicators, and were very accommodating of our special requests.”

“Tristan took excellent care of my boy Hank on short notice. She was super friendly and accommodating to my schedule. I will absolutely book with her again:-)”

Payne Phalen dog parents share their Rover experiences
Kristina took wonderful care of our pup while we were gone for a week! She sent at least one video or update daily, and sent very prompt responses any time we messaged her. She and her kids obviously treated our dog with great care and love, and we would happily book her again.

I couldn’t be happier about finding Shevon & Ian - they are a perfect fit for Loki. Very caring, very attentive and understanding of a young but very large dog’s needs (and quirks!) They have a wonderful house with a huge fenced in yard in a quiet neighborhood, and their daughter and dog Warren are equally awesome. Shevon even went out of her way between visits to help us find a new vet when Loki was struggling with a severe case of pneumonia. Can’t recommend them enough!

Anna provided really great care for Sloane! She sent me daily updates and Sloan always looked very happy and tired and all of her photos. Anna also has a really great backyard where pups can run around and I know that Sloane really appreciated the opportunity to explore! We will definitely be rebooking at some point!

Angela watched our dogs on short notice after the family friend who regularly watches them cancelled two days in advance of our departure date. She is very dog-savvy. Right-away, she let them into the backyard to find and "mark" their spots. They got along well with her puppy, but because they are older, she also allowed them quiet time when there were no puppy antics underway. Our border collie got to spend lots of time outside, which he loves, but doesn't get much of because we do not have a fenced yard. Angela sent several pictures of our dogs every day, which was sweet and reassuring. Apart from 2 weeks with my daughter, our dogs who are both going on 13 have not spent time away from home since they were one year old. Our dog who is very insecure was very unhappy - but nothing that coming home and several meals of Kowalski's meatloaf could not fix.

I have a fussy, dramatic French bulldog that can't stay with just anyone. Katie took him into her home with zero issues and shared pictures of him cuddling with her on the couch and making himself at home. Katie does a wonderful job and has excellent communication too. I highly recommend her.

Reegan was wonderful for our pups. Our Labrador had gotten his paws pretty sore on the ice prior to us bringing him to her and she was very understanding and patient. She diligently put shoes on him for going out and rested him until his paws were healed up. Our other dog absolutely loved her dog Butch and both our pups looked relaxed and happy at pick up. She was also great about communicating every day. Highly recommend!

This is our second time booking with Vanessa, and I truly love how caring she is with dogs. I always feel confident that my pups are safe, happy, and having a great time when they stay with her. We often leave them for long trips, so having that peace of mind knowing they’re in such loving and reliable care means everything to us. I recommend her 100%

Stan was such a wonderful dog-sitter for our Bernese Mountain Dog, Flora! He was thoughtful and conscientious, meeting with us beforehand and running through a list of questions about her specific needs and habits. Throughout our trip, he sent updates with photos that showed our dog living her best life. Flora got along so well with his two dogs and they all three took idyllic snowy walks together and enjoyed playing together in Stan’s gorgeously wooded yard. We feel lucky to have met Stan and found a new home away from home for Flora. We had such peace of mind white we were away out of the country. Flora was in great and loving hands.
