I think my Sam had a great time with Cynthia and family…and he was so lucky that Cynthia’s daughter was there with her little dog Reggie, so he had a playmate the whole time he was there (9days). Cynthia watered her plants outside and my Sam loves to be watered also. And with the very hot weather, he enjoyed it. Will be returning!

It was like Molly had been to Cassandra's before. She went right inside. I think animals get a vibe from people, and Molly just knew. I think Molly had a very good time at Cassandra's. I was afraid since there weren't any other dogs there, Molly would be bored. But from the pics and video Cassandra sent, Molly was having a fine time. Won't be anxious at all to drop Molly off next time.

Jenevieve was a great sitter for our dogs. Leaving your little ones is very hard, but Jenevieve made everything so easy. I'll absolutely ask her again for our next trips and I highly recommend her great service. Thank you so much for watching Mila and Bruno.

Kevin watched our pug for six nights while we were in Hawaii and kept us updated with photos and fun stories. He made us feel super comfortable, leaving our furry family member. Kevin‘s dog Ricky is a big bonus. He’s a fun little guy and Sushi loved having a friend for the week. Can’t wait to book with Kevin again in the future highly recommend.!

We came to Iowa for a wedding. Cory took good care of our 2 senior dogs (labs). One has separation anxiety that he was able to comfort and the other took a nap on his bed. He walked and fed them.

We have an incredibly shy dog. He is very leery of people and we have tended to not board him. Osvaldo and his family were AMAZING with our dog. They were petting him, he was sleeping at their feet, and they were taking him for walks in the park--something he never does well. We loved all the updates, his home was set up for taking care of dogs, and he had other dogs to play with while we were gone--something he loves. I think Osvaldo is a dog whisperer. Magic--sheer magic! Even our dog trainer couldn't get these results from him. We are forever indebted and will use him again!

This was my first time leaving my senior rescue pups with a Rover sitter. Alexandra was patient with my dogs and the time it took them to settle in, get comfortable and bark less. Appreciated her prompt responses and communication. Her setup was great for my dogs and she has a giant fenced in backyard!

Maricela was awesome with easing in Sami into her home, giving her space to get used to the new environment. She sent pictures daily and was always incredibly responsive in both the inquiry and once booked. She accommodated our requests and was incredibly friendly. Definitely recommend Maricela if you are looking for someone that will treat your pet as their own!

We hit the lottery finding this family!!! Alicia, Dan, and their daughter took absolutely incredible care of my dog, Coco. From the moment we connected, they made me feel completely comfortable leaving her in their care. They treated Coco like she was part of their family! Every day Alicia sent updates and photos, which meant so much to me and gave me total peace of mind while I was away. It was clear from the pictures and messages that Coco was happy, loved, and getting tons of attention 😊 I could not have had a better experience!!! I will absolutely be booking with them (and only them!) again! ❤️🐾

Kimberlee is wonderful! Our pup is a repeat customer of hers, and he didn’t even look back when we dropped him off. His tail was wagging the whole time! She sends lots of photos, and it’s clear your dog is in great hands with her. We’ll definitely be bringing our pup back!

Hannah was absolutely amazing and went above and beyond for our pups!!! She was so responsive, constantly checking in with us, sending us photos, and doing whatever needed to be done to help our pups feel at home. One of our dogs is a bit anxious and Hannah was so patient and sweet and made her feel so safe and comfortable. She knows exactly what she’s doing and it was so great to know our dogs were in good hands while we were gone. She was so great and I know our dogs were her top priority and I am just so thankful!! I cannot recommend Hannah enough, we will definitely be booking with her again the next time we go out of town.

Kevin is simply the best! We have known him for two years and he does a wonderful job every time. He is the type of person that all dogs love and can relax around. Kevin’s communication before, during, and after stays is awesome; I’m able to relax and know things are going well while we’re away. I’d recommend Kevin to anyone and everyone!
