“Aaren and Jordon are practically family now. This is the second time they have watched my girl and they take the BEST care of her. They love on her, make sure she is getting fresh air, and even take her on outings. I almost hesitated to write this review because I don’t want yall to know how great they are and then start taking all to spots - just kidding! I can’t be selfish! Everyone deserves to feel the peace I feel when my pup stays with them ❤️.”


“I am more than pleased with the ❤️ and care DAMACIA provided for my 3 months puppy. I would recommend her and we will be going back. Was a little nervous at first, but she reassured me he would be fine even around other Fur Babies.”

“Michelle always does a great job sitting my dog. I had a last minute trip planned and she was able to accommodate. I even had a delayed trip back home and she was very flexible which I appreciated.”


“Hillary was absolutely wonderful watching my pup Zephyr for the day. She sent pictures while Zeph was staying with her and kept me updated on details regarding how he was adjusting and feeling while in her care. It was clear to see how much she cared and prioritized my pups comfort over everything. We will absolutely be coming back and I look forward to zeph staying here again!!! :)”
“Alex is fantastic! She’s watched our pups twice now- including when we traveled cross country- and we always know they are in good hands. She sends us updates, is great with communication, and clearly cares deeply for animals. We can’t recommend her enough”

“I really appreciate the loving care Laura & her family gave Harvey while we were away for 2 weeks! It was our first time leaving him since adopting him in Nov & it was very important to me that he would be in a nice home that welcomed him as part of the family. That is exactly what Laura provided! She is easy going & a good communicator, responding to all my questions quickly before & during Harvey's stay & sending pictures & notes of Harvey's daily activities. I highly recommend Laura!”

“Amber is a natural with dogs! I loved getting the updates and photos of JJ while I was away—it really put my mind at ease. JJ came back happy and tired. Highly recommend!"”

“Ashley was amazing! Chessnut had a wonderful time with her and her dogs, and I got a ton of check ins and pictures. It was wonderful to not have to worry whatsoever about my pup when I was travelling. I will definitely book with Ashley for boarding again!”

“Myrna was great with my little guy! She gave updates the whole time I was away and helped with his anxiety while I was out of town. She made sure he had everything he needed and more! Thank you Myrna!!”

“Dawn was fantastic! She was very responsive and accommodating to our moving schedule. Sent lots of updates and photos. Jackson came home happy and enjoyed his stay.”

“I left my dog, Bonnie with Royal and Rhonda, and they were amazing! It was my first time leaving Bonnie in someone else’s care and they made it so easy and stress-free and were incredibly friendly. They really know their stuff and have a great setup for dogs. Bonnie had a blast and I loved the frequent updates. Highly recommend!”

“Abby was great with my dogs. She kept me informed throughout the entire trip and was vigilant in keeping my dog with addisons disease healthy. She went above and beyond to ensure they had a good stay.”

“Michaela was absolutely fantastic with Zephyr and it was so clear he had such a great time with her this weekend! During our stay she sent tons of pictures to keep me updated on what Zeph was up to and was very communicative throughout the whole rover process. We met ahead of time during a meet and greet where Zeph got tons of time to get to know his new aunt Michaela and vice versa and it was clear to see how great she was with handling him from the start. We will absolutely be back and are so happy to have met you! Thanks so much for taking such great care of Zephyr!”
Pocoshock dog parents share their Rover experiences
First time having my dog watched by Zach he did everything I asked of him and more and on top of that was extremely friendly and kind! My dog had an accident or two didn't, cause a issue about it while I was for business I would definitely recommend leaving your dog with him

You want your dogs at Franceska’s! Wow, great house and backyard. Their dogs are great and our dogs became great friends. Franceska kept us up to date with pictures and let us know how they were doing daily. They had a great time. We have a senior dog and a puppy; they handled both with ease. Really great people to work with. Will have them take care of our dogs again!

Julia was such a great fit for our French Bulldog, Marseille. She was playful and attentive and sent plenty of photos with updates. She was also flexible when I needed to extend our booking last-minute. Our dog enjoyed playing with the other pets in Julia’s care. I highly recommend. We will be rebooking.
