“Fantastic stay! Natasha enjoyed every minute here. Between running through the large backyard or playing with the other sweet pups, she couldn’t get enough. Damon has a wonderful and hands on approach - I didn’t go a few hours without an update and a picture. We’ll be back :)”

“Dahlia cared so well for Dezzie. I got regular updates and my dog looked so happy in her care. She followed my instructions for Dezzie’s care. Lovely home, kind people, flexible.”

“Rebecca is a gem! She kept my 6 yr old 35 lb dog at her sunny apartment for 2 nights. They went to the farmers market, on lots of walks, and hung out with her grandkids. She sent lots of pictures and I enjoyed chatting with her when I picked up my dog.”

“Sandra is very flexible with pick up and drop off and is a great communicator. She clearly cares for the dogs she hosts and gives details on their stay. Our dog loves snuggles and she gets them when she stays with Sandra.”

“Sarah has watched our pup several times and we could never ask for better care. She is great with sending updates and you can tell how much they care for the pups. I couldn’t recommend her enough!”

“Perla had a great time with lots of play! Elizabeth has a nice big home with lots of room to run around both inside and out. Her dog Lilo and Perla got along really well. We'll definitely be a repeat customer.”

“Arlo had an amazing stay at Amanda’s and Jaime’s place! They were really good with keeping me updated and sending pics. He had a blast with their dog, Oliver. I believe they are best friends now! He’s been sound asleep since I’ve brought him back home. That’s definitely a good sign! :)”

“Jason is a natural when it comes to caring for dogs. Sheldon warmed up to him instantly and his communication was spot on as he was kind, thorough, and thoughtful with his responses and updates along with plenty of pictures to keep me involved with his care. Gus & Star are very sweet as well and Sheldon left with new friends. Hoomans & doggos alike! Jason is flexible as well and simply made the whole process so easy I would highly recommend him to care for your pupper! Many thanks Jason 😊”

“We feel so fortunate to have found Carol J. to care for our furry kids! Carol is most awesomely wonderful! We read Carol’s reviews, went for a visit with her, and hired her— and we are ecstatic that we did. Carol treated our babes like we do but probably even better. Carol has a huge yard full of wondrous exploration opportunities and my dog loved her time there gardening with Carol so much so that she didn’t seem terribly excited to go home! Our cat spent her days observing fabulous gardens out of the numerous window choices in Carol’s home & acted as if she’d just had a remarkable spa experience at Carol’s. Carol sent us photos everyday with notes about what our pets were doing so we had zero worries or concerns about them. Our dog had just begun 3 new medications before we left & Carol handled all of those perfectly. Our dog can be very manipulative in trying various stunts to get extra treats and Carol caught on to those immediately. We don’t travel as often as we’d like but after finding Carol, that could change! Carol would be our GoTo Top Choice for pet boarding. She knows animals, she loves animals, she’s super-conscientious, & she provided daily updates with great communication. For this trip, our biggest concern had been our pets & where to board them. Finding Carol turned that into zero concerns about boarding them. Thank you so much, Carole; you are a true gift to our community.”


“Jamie and Nicole took very good care of our dog and kept us posted with many happy photos. Our dog seemed to miss Jamie and Nicole the first night we took him home. We highly recommend them!”

“From the moment my two dogs met Peter they loved him. He is so good with doggies! The pictures he sent me showed just how happy they were with his family. They were given lots of time, affection, and fun, as well as special attention and grooming. They were with him because I was in the hospital for a medical procedure that went longer then expected. For me Peter's flexibility with my situation and the confidence he inspired made leaving my doggies in his hands in an already stressful time for me a peaceful decision. I would clearly recommend him!”

“Abe did an excellent job watching Kovu over the week of Christmas. We had a very thorough meet and greet beforehand where he met both of the dogs and Abe reviewed all of Kovu's needs with me. Kovu is a Husky and has a lot of energy and sass. I really appreciated the structure he keeps with all the dogs in his home, I felt very assured that Kovu would be safe and cared for. I got pictures and some videos daily, he always seemed to be having a lot of fun and getting along really well with the other pups. I'm pretty sure he was sad to leave his new pals when I came to pick him up. Great communication, excellent care, would 10/10 recommend trusting your pups with Abe! Thanks again, see you next time!”

“From our first meet and greet to the last day pick up, Shari was extremely communicative and flexible. My dog was with Shari for 5 days and I very much appreciated the many pictures and updates she sent; it was obvious that Rudy was living the good life and getting plenty of lap time! Shari is genuinely caring and wants the best for her "clients"! I recommend Shari for your dog's care needs and will ask her to look after Rudy in the future.”

“Abby was awesome! She has another dog and my puppy LOVED playing. She sent me photos and videos of the dogs playing together and kept me super updated. It was my first time leaving my new puppy and she made it so much easier! Will definitely be using her again.”


“Dan was great with my dog Joanie! This was my first time using Rover and I was a little nervous about the two week stay, but Dan was quick to respond to questions and sent updates while I was away. 100% would book again!”

Ross Island dog parents share their Rover experiences
I felt so comfortable leaving my Hoppy with Theresa . She was so good with sending photos and updates , and had really good energy . She was great with my routine for hoppy and really made him feel at home. When I picked him up , he kept going back to sniff her so I know that he enjoyed his stay. Thank you so much Theresa 🥰🥰

Emiline is the best! We are repeat clients, and I can’t say enough good things about Emiline. She is communicative, thoughtful, warm, and considerate, and goes above and beyond in all ways. I never worry about our sensitive and nervous dog when she’s in Emiline’s care—I know Emiline will take excellent care of her.

I cannot recommend Kaherine enough! She went above and beyond for my dog during her stay. I especially appreciated the daily updates and photos, which gave me such peace of mind while I was away. Beyond the standard walks, she really took the time to engage my dog in fun activities and training. A huge highlight for me was her help in socializing my pup with other dogs it was a major milestone, and seeing the progress she made in such a short time was incredible. She is reliable, attentive, and clearly cares deeply about the pets she looks after. I will definitely be booking with her again!

Dahlia watched our pup Frankie over our two week wedding vacation (I know, sad we couldn’t bring her) and she was amazing! We received multiple photos throughout the day, and she was extremely fast at responding - even with the 3 hour time change. I would absolutely book again and highly recommend Dahlia for any pet support needed!!!

Laura and her partner did an amazing job with my English bulldog bones ! They made sure to send daily updates of how he was doing and did a great job at following his kinda complicated eating/medicine schedule! Bulldogs are needy lil guys and he looked more than comfortable with them for about 6 days that went out of town! Would highly recommend her she is the best !
