“Our pup is a sensitive, nervous guy. Marna made sure he felt loved and at home. I could tell he was having fun with her family through the photos she sent. She filled us in each day and sent photos. 🤩 Will definitely use Marna again!”


“I had a last minute booking need come up and I’m so glad I did so I could meet Elisabeth! Elisabeth was so wonderful and caring to my dog. I was really excited to see she has other small dogs, and Louise had a blast running around with her crew. Elisabeth was incredibly caring, she sent really thorough updates and made Louise feel right at home after I left. I felt so at ease knowing my sensitive little dog was so well cared for and had some friends to play with. I would absolutely bring Louise back and highly recommend Elisabeth!”


“Vicky did an excellent job taking care of Harriet. She took Harriet for lots of walks on nearby trails and sent us multiple photos over the weekend. I highly recommend Vicky!”


“Molly and her partner have a great set-up for dogs and their own friendly pups! They’re communicative and responsible and we have no doubt Chexmix had a great time. Would use again in a heartbeat”


“Sarah was wonderful! Our boy, King had a happy long weekend with Sarah! She sent plenty of updates and photos and made it easy to get out of town and we didn’t feel rushed to return. We will happily leave our fur baby in her care again! Thank you Sarah for taking such good care of our boy!”


“Kelly was great! She asked all kinds of questions to make sure our dog was comfortable and well taken care of. We will definitely be reaching out to her again soon!”


“Claudia and Jason were fantastic. They sent plenty of photos and took great care of our senior pup. Would definitely recommend them to other owners!”


“Anne was wonderful! Beautiful yard and friendly dogs that played with my two after a long car ride from PA. Lots of updates and photos, which were appreciated as new Rover users.”


“Another fabulous visit with Viva! Nova always comes home so happy and tired, and we appreciate Viva’s flexibility and knowledge! She always goes above and beyond - we appreciate you!”



“Once again Kris took great care of my dog Molly. Molly loves to stay with her and I’m happy to have found someone I can feel comfortable leaving her with when I need to.”


“Elizabeth is awesome! We left our chihuahua with her for about 2 weeks while we were out of town, and we felt so comfortable knowing our little baby was in such a loving home, with someone who adores dogs as much as Elizabeth does! She sent us pictures, videos, and sweet little updates everyday, and we even had the opportunity to FaceTime with our little angel 🐾 We forgot to pack our dog’s winter coat, and it got quite cold, but Elizabeth had an extra coat that she bundled her in to make sure she was safe and warm on their walks through Evergreen. Also, our little pup gets nervous when we leave her and sometimes won’t eat because of it, but Elizabeth HAND FED her! And then she ate her whole dinner like that. Can you believe that? If that doesn’t tell you everything you need to know about how much Elizabeth cares, I don’t know what will. One more way that Elizabeth went above and beyond that really meant the world to us, was how flexible she was with scheduling. We had some unexpected very-last-minute changes to our trip, but Elizabeth was extremely accommodating, kind, and patient. She really had our back. Elizabeth is such a good person, and you can tell that she really cares about you, as well as your dog. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy and above-and-beyond to take care of your beloved dog, look no further! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Thank you Elizabeth!”


“Christina did a great job with Crosby. I trusted that he was well cared for and got lots of love and attention. Normally a very stressed out dog, he seemed very relaxed when I picked him up. We'll definitely use her again in the future.”


“Bee had a fun time at Hannah’s! This was my first time using a Rover sitter for my dog, and Hannah made me feel at ease about the whole process. She made sure to ask all the important questions to prepare for Bee’s visit, and sent pictures every day to update me on how Bee was doing. I would definitely request Hannah again for dog sitting - she did a wonderful job handling all the energy of my 8 month old pup and made her feel comfortable being away from home.”



“Amy was great with my two Bernedoodles. I had a lot of anxiety leaving them and she made sure to send lots of pics that made me feel better. She was great at communicating and I would definitely board my dogs with her again.”


“I cannot recommend Rose enough! She sent me updates all throughout the days she had Dane. I could tell Dane was comfortable around her through the pictures she sent. Rose was attentive & observant to his needs. I know she took wonderful care of my boy. I felt so at ease the entire time while I was away. I will only book with Rose in the future!”


“We had a wonderful experience with Alma, who invited our Whoopie into her home and family. When possible, Alma also arranges a meet and greet before the stay to ensure a good fit. Thank you so much Alma! We hope we can meet again and reunite dogs and people.”


“Kathleen took great care of my big guy! It’s always tough with a nervous dog, especially one that’s 100lbs. She managed to keep him calm and safe during his stay and we are so grateful!”


“This is the third time we have left our pup with Jennifer. She does a great job of sending daily (twice daily) updates and photos. We know Max is well cared for and well loved when he stays there. He loves Maya as well!”


“Cindy was amazing with our dog Loki! We felt so much more comfortable leaving him with her than we ever have at a traditional boarding facility. From the start, she was super flexible—when our travel plans changed last minute, she was totally accommodating and easy to work with. Communication was on point the entire time. Cindy sent us regular updates, including photos and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear Loki was having a great time—he had dog buddies to play with, was allowed on the couch (which he loved), and genuinely looked happy and relaxed in every update. Not only did she treat Loki like one of her own, but her home is also lovely and the backyard was perfect for him to run around and play. That made a huge difference for us knowing he had space to enjoy himself. We couldn’t be happier with our experience and will absolutely book with Cindy again in the future. Highly recommend!”
