Gloria was an excellant boarding companion. She communicates very well. Sending me pictures and videos of my dog. I was very happy with her services and would recommend her to anyone needing a no-pets boarding experience.

Kate and Rachael were so amazing! They welcomed our big fur baby with open arms. The communication was clear and transparent. They sent video and photo updates the entire time she was there! Will absolutely be rebooking the next time we need someone to watch our doggo!

Linda is amazing. She sent us pics and videos every day. Tango had a back yard and a couple of friends to play with. He was never left alone or put in a kernel. Linda was very thoughtful to invite us over for meet and greet before we left him for a week. Will definitely work with her again!

Stephanie and her family were absolutely amazing with taking care of our pup. We had to be away for two weeks and they took superb care of him during that time, including throwing him a birthday party and giving him a bath. He was extremely happy and we were kept up to date with how he was doing and plenty of videos and photos. Stephanie has such great knowledge and care for dogs, we will definitely have him back in the future.

Jessica and her family were simply amazing! I felt like I was sending my dog off to camp. They are so thoughtful and accommodating, even with my pup who needs some more socialization and had some behavior issues. Jessica wasn’t phased in the slightest and made me feel so confident that they could handle him and give him what he needed. Multiple updates on most days eased any anxiety I felt leaving him. He even came home bathed and brushed out! Highly recommended!!

Juliana kept Leica for two nights while we attended a wedding. From the videos looks like Leica had a great time with Julian's dogs. We definitely will use Juliana again when we travel. Appreciate all of the attention you gave Leica.

Brendon was unbelievably flexible and reliable when it came to watching our pup. He was able to drop our dog off at our home when we returned from out of town, he was able to take him a day early when our plans changed, and he sent photos and kept us updated while we were gone. He truly went over and beyond what we expected and what “Rover” hopes to have in their dog sitters. If Brendon is available next time, there is no doubt we will be scheduling him. You should do the same.

If there were additional stars, I would click them all!! This family has allowed us to leave for a vacation without a second of worry about our best girl, Sugar! We have taken Sugar to stay with Holly and Jeremy three times now and would not want to use anyone else. Holly makes sure to send the cutest pictures of Sugar with their daughters and their dogs and she looks so happy and loved!! Words cannot really express how much this means to us! As long as they are in the Rover business, they are the ones I will use. Highly recommend!

I can't speak highly enough of Nichole. The frequent updates they provided on my dog kept me at ease throughout the entire stay. The flexibility with pick-up and drop-off times made my life so much easier. Additionally, their own dog was incredibly friendly and became fast friends with my pup. It's a comfort to know my dog is not only well-cared-for but also genuinely happy in their care. Highly recommend!
