“Luka always has a great time staying with Shannon and Lulu, and this time was no exception. He got some extra special attention when a lightning storm rolled through and freaked him out.”
“Tiffany was a lifesaver and helped me get out of a bind with my son’s dog. She was extremely accommodating and made it very easy to work with her. Will use again a highly recommend! Very clean home and backyard with pool!”
“Jason has been wonderful with Ollie. This is our 2nd time booking with him. I would recommend Jason to anyone looking to board their dogs. It is really hard to find a person you trust your dog with and I can say I plan to book with Jason all my upcoming trips when I am out of town”
“We just got back from a trip to Mexico, and left our 3 1/2 year old Yorkshire terrier, Bentley, with Dori and her adorable family! This was our first time to use Dori, and she was amazing! Sent us updates daily on Bentley along with pictures. He has adjusted back home with no issues from his stay. We would definitely use her again and highly recommend her!”
“Min was amazing!! She sent photos every day and updated me on how he was doing! She is the best! Super responsive as well! Will definitely be using her again!”
“Thai is my second time leaving my babies with William, every time I pick them up they are sad to leave and actually miss Mr. William. And when I left them the second time they ran excitedly to his front door and greeted him with so much love and energy. They really love him, I can tell he’s amazing with my babies, they don’t usually go to people so excitedly other than me and my mom. I trust him completely with my babies and they mingle well with his own dogs. The entire experience has been incredible every time.”
“Fernanda and Matthew were great with my dog! I love that they walked and played with him. They were quick to respond and sent daily photos. I would highly recommend them for anyone looking for a dog sitter!! :)”
“It was truly amazing experience with Amalia. I have trust issues when it comes to my fur baby and I felt so relaxed when I left my GSD Ella with her. She and her family was so welcoming of Ella and Ella came back home relaxed which is rare. She sent us plenty videos and pics without even requesting which is a big plus for me as no matter where I am, I want to see how Ella is doing. I am going back and feel so thankful that I found her for my fur baby.”
“Cole was so good with my coco. Coco was able to make herself right at home. Cole even tried to brush Coco’s teeth and cut her nails but my is a bit fussy but fact that she pays that much attention to detail lets me know my baby girl way in good hands. I would totally be using Cole again if she will have us. She is top tier for sitters on this app.”
“We love Maxine! Such a pleasure talking to her. She was awesome in reporting how our dog was doing with pictures, which was great since we missed our baby so much! She was great which our dog and will defintely use her again. Thank you!”
“This was the best stay my puppies have EVER had. They were so happy, but still happy to see me. They were cared for beautifully, and that is a job! And they got so much love and attention. I can't thank Taylor and Dave and Fin (and Trudy) enough.”
“Stella was great for Riley. In fact he is probably upset we picked him up as he got to go to dog park daily. Stella was accommodating as our flight got delayed and Riley had to spend an additional night. Will definitely see if Stella is available for the next time Riley needs cared for”
“I absolutely love Olaitan and the attention and care she gave to my child Dillion. She kept in constant communication with me before and during sitting. My baby actually ate while I was gone which sometimes he will not do when leaving with a sitter. I will definitely book her again.”
“Carolyn took excellent care of our dog Aperol while we were away for over 10 days. It was his first time without us, and although he really missed us, Carolyn made sure he was comfortable and happy throughout. Despite him being a bit challenging (he's not neutered and isn't crate trained), she handled everything with ease. We highly recommend her services!”
“Pete the Pointer had a relaxing Thanksgiving day with Elizabeth. She has the charm to make an up tight high energy GSP's tail wag and enjoy the day of pet car. ELIZABETH IS A Super Duper Gal!”
“Ashley took great care of my Maverick. I felt so comfortable because she gave me updates everyday and assured me that he was great! I appreciate her help SO much!”
“Cooper had an amazing stay with Annie! She sent pictures and videos multiple times a day and was very nice. Will definitely be using her again in the future.”

My senior dog unfortunately was sick and had bad diarrhea while staying with Shannon. She took care of him, cleaned him up, and cleaned up his bedding. And she kept me informed until I could pick him up. I really appreciated her great care of my baby, and she checked up on him the next day!
Jamie and her family are amazing! They watch my dog frequently and always take very good care of Bella (who can be a little fiesty with other pups) she has no issues during her stays here. Jamie always sends plenty of pictures and videos to update me. Bella comes home worn out and happy from playing so much. Definitely recommend this sitter!
We’re hesitant to write the glowing review Mike and Sarah deserve because we don’t want them to start getting all booked up, so we can’t have them look after our pups whenever we need them to. They’re by far the best Rover boarders we’ve found, and we’ve tried quite a few over the years. Their house is clean and inviting. Their own dog, Archie, is loving and playful and provided a great play companion to the more active of our two dogs. And Mike and Sarah are caring and loving people who cared for our pets like they were their own. Great, timely communication with lots of pictures while we were out of town. We felt totally at ease leaving Wyatt and PK in their care. 💯% would and will turn to them again for boarding in the future.
Lu is the best! She provided my dog with elevated care because of a small wound that needed tending to that formed before I dropped her off. My flight was also delayed getting back to Dallas and Lu was so accommodating with those unforeseen circumstances. Can’t wait to book Lu again for my next boarding needs.
I absolutely love Olaitan and the attention and care she gave to my child Dillion. She kept in constant communication with me before and during sitting. My baby actually ate while I was gone which sometimes he will not do when leaving with a sitter. I will definitely book her again.
I had such a great experience with Sophia and Andrew! Throughout the stay, they sent plenty of photo and video updates and my dog came home happily exhausted from playing. I’d absolutely trust them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a caring and attentive dog sitter!
We had an amazing experience with Jena! I have not used Rover in a few years and was a little nervous leaving my dog with a new person, but Jena made us feel comfortable and took really great care of our dog. We received multiple pictures and videos, as well as updates. Jena even made special treats and gave our dog a spa day. I feel very comfortable working with Jena again in the future AND recommending her to anyone needing pet boarding.
Hollie and Brian were amazing as always! They were so accommodating when we had flight delays and cancellations. They watched all 3 of our dogs and they sent the best pictures every day. We are so grateful for them and they are always our first choice to watch our pups when we go away.
