“Andrew and his family treated my Oscar as part of their family. He was in constant communication with me while I was away in Italy for almost 3 weeks. Andrew is very kind and very easy/flexible. I would recommend him to anyone that needs a trustworthy person to watch their furbabies! Thank you Andrew!”


“Scott and his dog Lucy were a great match for Roo! I received multiple picture updates and he was great at communicating. We met up beforehand to ensure a good match, and it was clear Scott has a natural way with dogs. Would gladly rebook!”

“I am thankful Rhonda was able to watch my Boston Terrier on short notice. I was very comfortable leaving him with her and will definitely have her watch him in the future.”

“Elizabeth provided 4 days of boarding for our dog. We were able to book her with short notice. Although my dog was nervous around children, she was able to help my dog get used to them. She is responsive and very accommodating. Our return flight was late and she was able to adjust our pickup time without any issues. Would highly recommend for boarding your dog.”

“Ashlee did wonderful taking care of my 11yo Shih tzu and 2yo Goldendoodle. She took them on walks, and sent me updates while I was on my trip!! She was flexible with the time changes in my travel and made it easy for me to pick them up!! I know my pups were in great care with Ashlee!! Thanks again ☺️”


“Riley had such a great experience, and I truly can’t say enough good things. Communication was amazing from start to finish, and she was so flexible when our flights changed, which took a huge weight off my shoulders. She even sent pictures without us asking which we absolutely loved and really appreciated. Her kids and mother were incredibly kind and Riley also got along so well with their dog, Annalise. Riley isn’t around other dogs very often, so I was a little nervous, but they did great together and it made me so happy to hear how well she adjusted. Honestly, the whole experience felt so comfortable… like I’ve known them for a long time. That says a lot when you’re trusting someone with your dog. I would absolutely use them again without hesitation. I think Riley may have even found herself a new best friend 🐾”

“Yolanda and her family did a wonderful job with Gizmo. It was our first time leaving him for a week and with someone through Rover. Yolanda's patience, kindness, and experience brought me relief knowing that my dog was in great hands. She did everything possible to calm my anxiety-ridden fur baby and made him comfortable; kept me updated and was responsive; sent me photos; and was very easy/flexible to work with. By the end of the week, Gizmo was playing with other dogs and taking long walks twice a day, which he never does! He's been home for almost 24 hours and I can tell he misses Yolanda, but mostly, he's been sleeping like a baby. LOL. I couldn't thank Yolanda and her family enough. I finally found someone who was willing to take in my dog and refused to give up on him even when times were hard. I highly recommend her services! I've found my FOREVER dog sitter :) Thank you again Yolanda!!”
“Sarah and her family provided constant updates of my dog throughout the week. Her daughters seemed really engaged and loving on my dog, making me feel confident she was receiving all the love and affection she gets at home. When I picked her up, my dog seemed so relaxed, almost as if she hadn’t been gone all that time, helping me feel confident she was safe and loved on. Usually after boarding in a facility, my dog is highly anxious, extra agitated and disheveled. None of that here with Sarah. Her and her family were truly the best sitters. I never worried once while away.”

“We were thrilled Maria and Nayibe were available to take care of our mini golden doodle while we were away! We didn’t worry about a thing as we knew Bailey was being well taken care in a warm and welcoming home. Maria updated us daily with pictures and messages about how she was doing. We will definitely be booking with them in the future. You can tell they love what they do! Thank you!! 😊”


“MJ is the best! He's super kind, flexible, and his love and knowledge of animals is clear. My dog is shy and sad when I go away, but I know he feels comfortable at MJ's, and that makes traveling easier. Thanks!”

“This was our first time using Rover. We had last minute work done in our house where the cats had to be gone. Aidan and Dani were amazingly patient with our four cats who have quite unique personalities.”

“Lisa was so great with my nervous dog. You can tell, and my dog could tell, that’s she’s a pet lover. My dog latched on to her and Lisa was very reassuring sending pictures and updates letting me know my dog was in good hands. I was able to relax more on my vacation knowing ZeZe was being well cared for!”

“Laura was great! Our dog Dolly seemed well taken care of. Dolly got along really good with her labrador Diesel. He is a sweet boy. Highly recommend her and have scheduled for future plans. Theresa W.”

“Michelle is the only person we trust (and love) to watch our dog, Stella! She is very attentive and has a natural connection with animals. Stella gets excited if we even mention going to her house or any of her dogs’ names. Highly recommend.”

“Gabriel did such a nice job keeping my 12 week old puppy overnight. His dog Mel and my puppy got along great. I will definitely book Gabriel again. Thank you Gabriel and Mel!”

“My two huskies had such a good time! Kim and her husband took such great care of them! They sent us videos and pictures which definitely helped knowing they were in good hands :) 100/10 recommend”


“Ashley and her family did an excellent job watching my two pups. Both seemed to be enjoying themselves while I was away. I got updates and pictures periodically so I was always in the know of what they were up to. Ashley was accommodating with time drop off and pick up. I appreciate the time and love you spent with my babies.”

“Stella stayed with Dawn and her family for a few days. Overall, the stay sounds like it went well. She has a nice fenced yard for her to run and play ball. They communicated and sent pictures and were quick to respond to messages.”
“Ann and Arman were awesome hosts for Finn while I was traveling for work. They treated him like family, and he clearly settled in quickly (note that they did a great job of providing pictures and updates). He enjoyed his walks with them, loved playing with their children, and was treated with love! Ann and Arman were a joy to work with, and Finn looks forward to returning soon.”

“My dog loves going to Stacey’s place. She takes great care of him even with his different eating preferences. Will keep booking with her and definitely recommend!”

Saint Joseph dog parents share their Rover experiences
Tracie was wonderfully attentive and great with our pup! We’ll definitely be booking again in the future. Great communication, and respectful of our dog’s needs. Our dog can be a bit leash reactive, but Tracie was mindful to introduce her carefully to her own pets and make sure our dog was comfortable. Thank you, Tracie!!

Maggie was a wonderful and attentive sitter for our dog, Bolo! She has cared for Bolo twice and he was excited to see her on the 2nd round. She clearly cares about the pets she sits for, and she asked about everything I could have thought related to Bolo's care. Maggie sent updates while we were gone, and we quickly built trust with her. She was easy to work with and flexible with pick-up and drop off time changes too! I will be asking her to pet sit for us again soon!

Sarah and her family provided constant updates of my dog throughout the week. Her daughters seemed really engaged and loving on my dog, making me feel confident she was receiving all the love and affection she gets at home. When I picked her up, my dog seemed so relaxed, almost as if she hadn’t been gone all that time, helping me feel confident she was safe and loved on.

I never worried once while away.

This is the second time we’ve used Kelle, and our dogs love her. She does not have other pets which works especially well since one of ours is unsure around other dogs. She sends picture updates and is so good with them. Since the first time we used her, we always check her availability first!

I was a little bit nervous with this being the first time I used Rover for boarding. However, thanks to Chelsea all those nerves have been put to rest. Chelsea listened to everything I said about boarding my dog and wrote it all down. She was constantly in communication with me and provided me with picture updates as well. I highly recommend!

Ashley and her family did an excellent job watching my two pups. Both seemed to be enjoying themselves while I was away. I got updates and pictures periodically so I was always in the know of what they were up to. Ashley was accommodating with time drop off and pick up. I appreciate the time and love you spent with my babies.
