I really felt like Enzo was being taken care of the whole time I was gone. Emily was very kind and flexible with my schedule. I even got some really good professional grade pictures from her of Enzo! All around great experience.

Our mini golden retriever stayed an overnight with Kari and her sweet family. Cookie was embraced and became part of the family. She received great care and was very comfortable Cookie gave this dog airbnb a 5 star review. Thanks to Kari and her family. We hope to return again soon.

This was our first time using Rover and leaving our pup was nerve racking as we'd come into town for a graduation. I was very impressed with Joleen's quick responses and the very smooth hand off and pick up. Our pup came back to us seemingly not wanting to leave. Highly recommend!

Alliyah was great with our two cats. Our younger cat can be a handful, but she handled his shenanigans with ease. We received a ton of photos and updates throughout their stay, which were greatly appreciated. We will definitely use Alliyah again in the future!

I had surgery so I found Chantel to watch my two dogs for two weeks. Well, what turned into two weeks turned into four weeks total and Chantel was very gracious to keep my two dogs for another two weeks, which was quite unexpected. Chantel did a very good job in meeting their needs and keeping me informed of how they were doing. I would highly recommend Chantel in the future.

Aquilla agreed to board my dad’s 18-year-old dog when dad had a medical emergency. She responded quickly and I knew from the moment I chatted with her, that she would take amazing care of Charlie. And she did just that, above and beyond. I’d recommend Aquilla wholeheartedly.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs throughout my whole life. I used to own a black lab named chance. When I was young, we took care of him and took him on walks. He was a very shy dog that we rescued. When I got older. I got a bichon her name is Lime. We’ve had her for 18 years now and she is a blessing to my life. We Walker go runs with take her to the groomers vets and much more to make sure that she is safe and having the best life she can. I’m a college student and huge dog lover with experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. I currently intern at WSET ABC 13 News, where I’ve developed strong communication, responsibility, and time-management skills. I have a tiny bichon named Lime who keeps life fun and energetic, and growing up I had a black lab named Chance, which helped build my lifelong love for animals. I enjoy spending time with dogs, going on walks, and making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away! My main thing is to care for the dog as the client wants. I wanna make sure the dogs are exercised and also just happy overall. I’m available to do almost anything. The client wants to guarantee the happiness of your dog. As a fellow dog owner, I love my bichon. She’s such a blessing to me back home so I fully understand how far we’ll go to keep our little Furrey friends happy. (My bichon currently lives somewhere else)

All of Jody’s reviews live up to the hype! I was so worried about someone new watching my dog with separation anxiety, but he didn’t even want to leave! My dogs love Jody, and I see why. She truly cares about the quality of their stay. Thank you so much Jody!

Finch had a great time with Joelle. We got daily updates and pictures of him going on walks. We gave Joelle a long list of things that he likes and dislikes, and she made sure that Finch got the same care at her house that he gets at home. My husband and I were able to fully enjoy our vacation without worrying about our dog at all.

This was our first experience with Rover and we’re a little nervous about it. However, from the moment I dropped our boy Nash off we knew he was in good hands. We received updates everyday and they were always positive. He got plenty of play time and tons of love while we were gone. We highly recommend Rebekkah and I will definitely be taking Nash to her again!
