“Becky was great. She accepted the booking quickly and communicated well throughout. The photos showed a group of very happy dogs - these are some of my favorite photos of my little guy. My dog can't bear to be left alone and is a sweet but insistent snuggler. He also gets the zoomies when he is nervous. She welcomed him with open arms and settled him quickly. She was sorry to see him leave, but he will definitely be back!”

“Katie has been watching Daisy for several years for us in the summer, we went to CO over Christmas and booked with Katie. This time Katie also sat our cat. My animals come home happy, clean and feed. Being able to count on someone to care for my babies is so important to me, my husband and I feel like we are leaving them with family.”

“Sadie and her husband took great care of our dog, Millie! She sent me many pictures of Millie making herself right at home in their home! Even texted me to ask if she could take her to the dog park. Millie loved her pups as well and we'll definitely be using Sadie again if we go away!”

“Picturesque Maine farm for a dog to be boarded. Jeanne knows hers dogs and was a great host for my furry friend Diamond. I would definitely try to use Jeanne’s farm first if Diamond needed to be boarded again.”


“I feel so comfortable leaving my dog with Janelle and Bob! They are so caring and loving! They have a great set up with a fenced in backyard! I know that my dog is safe and well cared for when I'm away. I would highly recommend them to care for your fur babies!”

“ashley is absolutely amazing! our 2 labradoodles spent the weekend with her for the first time and she instantly made them feel right at home! she brings all her dogs on adventures and plays and cares for them! i absolutely plan on using her again for training needs as well as boarding!! i am so glad we found her!!!”

“We boarded our dog with Taylor for two and a half weeks. She was great. Easy to communicate with, sent lots of pictures of our dog and made accommodations as necessary. Highly recommend.”

“Henry had a fantastic time staying here. Never had a worry in the world he wasn’t in great hands. Very prompt responses, Henry will be back! Thank you again!”


“Julia was amazing with our puppy and went above and beyond to take care of him as well as to keep us up to date with how everything was going, would highly recommend her to anyone”

“Christina took such wonderful care of Milo and Ellie while we were away. She kept us at ease with regular updates and photos, which we truly appreciated. It was clear they were in great hands the entire time. Both dogs came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for. We would absolutely trust Christina again and highly recommend her”


“Kimberly is the best sitter we’ve ever had, hands-down. She jumped in to cover an unexpected weekend with our two elderly and terminally ill pups, and exceeded our highest hopes for their care. She was highly experienced, and therefore highly attentive to, our high-need Shih Tzu, administering several medications a day and asking excellent follow-up questions to ensure the best care. Charlie and Mochi enjoyed safe, cozy places to rest, ample walks and even their first ride in a stroller when it was too rainy for them to enjoy a walk. We highly recommend Kimberly and will absolutely seek her out again when back in the D.C. area.”

“Excellent and reliable. I got stuck in another state for an extra day due to a flight cancellation, and she was so helpful with watching my dog extra and flexible with a last minute change in plans. Used her services multiple times and always satisfied!”

“We can't say enough good things about our experience. Emma was a delight. She made Tuckie a part of their family. This was our first experience with leaving Tuckie and Emma put us right at ease along witb tuckie who went with her withkut issues. She was extremely accommodating and professional. Tuckie looks forward to his next adventure. We would definitely recommend Emma's services.”

“My pup has never been so happy to go for boarding as he has with Julie. He dragged me across the driveway to get in. Julie is conscientious and cares so much about the dogs, it’s obvious. I’m so lucky to have found her!”


“Alyssa was great! Was able to take my pup on very short notice, was extremely communicative, and helped work on his manners while I was away. I would absolutely trust Alyssa to watch your dog.”

“I had a great experience boarding my dog, Loki, with Noreen! She’s kind, professional, and kept me updated with pictures and messages throughout his stay. Loki had a blast and came home happy and well-cared-for. Noreen truly loves animals, and I felt confident leaving him with her. Highly recommend, and I’ll definitely be booking again!”
“Andrea was very friendly and professional. She took care of Bailey like he was her own. She sent me updates of his stay frequently. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for puppy or doggy care. She was amazing!”

Rochester dog parents share their Rover experiences
Katie did a wonderful job watching our labs. They’ve stayed with her twice now, and each time she has been reliable, attentive, and incredibly caring. It’s obvious she treats our dogs with the same love and affection she has for her own adorable pup, Crumb, and they always seem to have a great time with her. Right before their most recent stay, one of our labs developed an ear infection, and Katie was kind enough to add ear medication to her care routine on short notice without hesitation. That level of flexibility and compassion gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We couldn’t be happier with the care our dogs received and would absolutely trust Katie with them again and again. Highly recommend!

Sadie and her husband took great care of our dog, Millie! She sent me many pictures of Millie making herself right at home in their home! Even texted me to ask if she could take her to the dog park. Millie loved her pups as well and we'll definitely be using Sadie again if we go away!

Rebecca is amazing! My pups had the absolute best time! She is extremely communicative and sent tons of much appreciated photos. This was my little dog's first time away from home and he's exceptionally choosy about his people.... well the little man fell head over heels for Rebecca and didn't want to come home. She was able to give my very different dogs exactly what each of them needed to feel safe and happy, and I feel incredibly lucky that we found her!
