“We love having Whitney as our sitter! She’s so friendly and makes our doggies feel welcome in her home. Whitney send us photos everyday and I can tell our dogs enjoy their walks and all the attention they get! Our dog Dany looked very comfortable in their sofa during her last stay haha. You know the sitter’s a winner when your dog gets super excited when we drop off! :)”

“Ami is excellent! She has watched our dog a couple times already while we are out of town. Our dog loves her and she’s very responsive and sends regular updates. We appreciate you Ami!”

“Thank you so much, Cerita, to you and your family for taking such great care of Teddy during his three-night stay. He was clearly well loved, and I am sure he enjoyed all the cuddles and attention. We are very grateful for the safe, warm, and caring home you provided.”

“Savanah is wonderful with Bailey! He goes right to her and settles in. We know Bailey is safe and well cared for. And we had a little change in schedule, with Savanah being flexible and easy to work with. We hope to book her again soon!”

Nick was very attentive and kept us updated with Benny very frequently, providing pictures and videos of Benny enjoying his time with Nick. We also appreciated the feedback that Nick provided at the end of Benny's stay with Nick. Overall we are extremely happy with Nick and look forward to having Benny under his care in the future.”

“Susanne took great care of my dog! She was very kind and understanding of my dog’s needs, and my dog enjoyed his stay. I appreciated the regular pictures and updates that she sends. I definitely recommend booking with Susanne, and I’ll be sure to book again when needed!”

“Hana was amazing!! She sent me pictures and video updates of Olive daily & I could tell that she was well taken care of while I was away. This was my first time ever leaving my pup with someone other than a friend and I will be using Hana whenever I have to go out of town now!”

“Gwendolyn was AMAZING! This was our first time leaving our dogs with someone that wasn't familiar with them. I won't hesitate to leave them with Gwendolyn again! The daily updates were awesome! Wendy and Red seemed to feel like family and extremely comfortable. No issues with the transition home. Highly recommend Gwendolyn and her family.”

Madison sent pictures and made sure to update me along the way and was so friendly! I was nervous to leave them but I am so thankful I found such a wonderful place for them to go. Thank you!”

“Ana was so helpful in caring for our dog last minute! We needed to board our dog with almost no notice and then I even booked the stay for one day short. Ana was so accommodating and treated our dog like family.”

Thor stayed at Luke and Elaheh house from Friday to Sunday and thor had the best time. They kept in contact with me the whole weekend about how thor was doing with pictures. We always worry about leaving thor at a place he will be comfortable and cared for and Luke and Elaheh went above and beyond for thor. If you are looking for a place to leave your fur baby I 100% recommend them. I know we will leave thor with them again in the near future.

Shakyra did a fantastic job, she took great care of our family member, our dog Riley. It was her first time away from home over night. We got a good update and when I went to pick her up the next morning she was calm and relaxed. Shakyra is very pleasant and communicative that alone put us at ease. She get 5 stars from us. Definitely use her again.

Rachel and Max are the best!! We dropped off our dog to stay with them for about a week, which was the longest she’s ever stayed with someone else. It went fantastic!! My dog is in love with them (especially max it sounds like!!) and they treated her like she was their own pet. Rachel and max were willing to do an overnight trial run a few weeks before to get our dog comfortable, and she felt right at home during the longer stay!! Thank you guys!!!

We're so grateful to have found Linda to care for our Bodhi. She's so loving and sweet with him, and we know that his every need is being tended to. We love the photos and updates that she sends, and the fact that he cries when it's time to go home shows us that he loves her right back!

Cass took excellent care of my dog Bailey while I was away on a 6-day trip. She provided excellent communication throughout the booking process from start to finish. The status updates and photos she provided left me completely at ease, knowing Bailey was in great hands. I would absolutely recommend Cass, and will keep her in mind for future bookings.

From the time we stop my pup literally pulls me up the stairs to her apartment. To see how excited he is to see her shows me how much she cares for him. It warms my heart that someone truly cares for him just as much as I do. Ana is truly the best at what she does. Your furry pet is going to be well taken care of.

I cannot be more thankful or grateful to how well Cassandra took care of our dog Xena. She was communicative all weekend long sent us pictures and updates and kept our minds at ease knowing Xena was so well taken care of. I give Cassandra the highest recommendation possible and can’t wait to book her again in the future. Thank you so much

Whitney took great care of our older pup, Whiskey while we were away. We were leaving for an extended period of time and Whitney sent lots of picture updates which put our mind at ease until we got home. Great communication and super friendly! Whiskey came back happy and I’m sure he can’t wait to go back! :)

From the moment I reached out to the meet & greet and then dropping off my sweet boy, Adrian was very responsive, welcoming and made Cosmic feel right at home. She was in constant communication with me and sent me pictures and videos frequently to show just how well Cosmic adjusted as he is a shy dog at first. Cosmic can’t wait to be back playing with his new dog pals and he even made friends with her family. I highly recommend Adrian!

Amanda was absolutely amazing from when I first reached out, to our meet and greet, and during Skylar’s stay. She was very responsive and shared fun pictures and videos. We knew our Skylar was in good hands and that she had the best vacation too. We would definitely rebook in a heartbeat.

What a blessing it was for us to leave our Vito in Katelyn and Paul’s hands. Not only did he enjoy a relaxing little oasis in their yard, but he also got his beloved daily walks. We received adorable updates every day, which gave us so much peace of mind while being far away on a work trip. Thank you both for being such wonderful Rover partners — we’re truly grateful🙏🫶
