Angie and family were great with our two boys, treated them like family. We got lots of updates and photos, and we always knew the boys were ok. Would definitely have them watch Boh and Tequila again.

Mio had a great time staying with another family instead of being boarded! They were great with communication, including photos and videos of our boy while we were away for the weekend. Thanks again for taking care of him like he was yours!

Great experience leaving Oliver with their family. The two of them were conscientious and considerate about understanding Oliver's needs and ensuring that I felt comfortable leaving him in their care while I was out of town. I wouldn't hesitate to leave Oliver with them again!

Melissa is wonderful. My dogs were so happy and it was obvious that they wanted for nothing. That had been walked and fed and cared for so beautifully. I will definitely go back the next time I need to be away from my fur babies! Thanks Melissa!

Cal and Kelly took great care of Buttercup and sent lots of photos of her having fun with her dog friends there. They let us know when she was feeling anxious (she is a sensitive rescue) and took extra care to make her more comfortable. They are our favorite Rover sitters!

Rosa absolutely loved her stay with Masha! Masha was very communicative and I got regular updates showing what a good time Rosa was having. I especially appreciated how thorough and thoughtful Masha’s questions were - she wanted to make sure she knew everything to take care of Rosa as best as possible, and I felt very comfortable leaving Rosa in her care. We will be back, thank you so much Masha!

With a senior dog, we do get nervous about leaving mango new places. I would say within five minutes of the meet and greet it was clear that Shanilka and her husband would be taking great care of him. They asked all the right questions and during our stay sent regular updates to make sure we knew he was in good hands. Would definitely use again!

FANTASTIC EXPERIENCE! Highly recommend! We chose Sriju, in part, based on other excellent reviews...and she did not disappoint! From our first communications and introductory meeting before we left our 11mo Goldendoodle with her, Sriju was welcoming, gentle, extremely responsive, organized, completely accommodating, and loving. This was our first time leaving Benny with someone else (we were away six days) so we were already a bit on edge; Sriju put us at ease immediately. Everyday while we were gone Sriju sent texts and pictures (usually once in AM and once in PM). She took Benny on numerous walks throughout the day as well as to the dog park. She adjusted to his needs, not the other way around, and provided an atmosphere that made Benny completely comfortable, as evidenced by his affection toward her when it was time to pick him up upon our return. We highly recommend Sriju and can't thank her enough for making our Benny feel at home while we were away...and giving us the peace of mind we needed to truly enjoy our trip. THANK YOU, Sriju!

Don't fear and don't worry. If you are looking for someone to take care and love on your furbaby, Josh and Andres H are the caregivers for your dog child. My dog has boarded with Josh and Andres on several occasions and he loves them dearly. Whenever we drop off our dog for boarding, he runs to Josh. Our dog enjoys being around them and living with them while we are on vacation. Josh and Andres are extremely nice, and very professional. They have a beautiful home and a beautiful neighborhood to walk the dogs. During my dog's boarding, they often send pictures of our dog playing with other dogs or just lounging as he often does at his own home. They often communicate and always available if we call and ask about Hershey. Also, whatever instructions you have for dog child, Josh and Andres will stick strictly to that plan to include the time to eat, walks, etc. I am so hooked on their kindness, professionalism and how much they care about dogs. If you ever need a dog sitter or a place to board your dog, please consider Josh and Andres. You will not be disappointed, I promise you. They are absolutely great people to have around your dog. They truly care about your dog child as if it was their own. Book them!

My two French bulldogs made themselves right at home with Piero and his family. They treated my doggos with great care and attention. It was also a huge plus that someone was always home with my girls. Piero was great with sending pictures and keeping me updated. It was super easy and I will be using him again to watch my dogs. 100 percent recommend - a wonderful sitter!

I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog Bella received! She was watched for three days and came back happy, calm, and clearly well taken care of. I got regular updates, photos, and could tell she was in great hands the entire time. It’s such a relief to know I have someone I can trust with Bella. Highly recommend and will definitely be booking again!

Maria and Fernando really care about your pet. Our two dogs very much enjoy their place. They have an enclosed outdoor space which is a big doggie playground. We get lots of photos and communication. They understand each dog's unique personality and cater to them. I highly recommend this setting!

Many thanks to Andrea who opened her home and her heart to our 12 year old Maggie, and even dealt well with her fear of thunderstorms. When I came to pick Maggie up, my dog walked over to Andrea and stood in front of her washer tail as if to say “ thank you, I love you!” I had not seen her do that except with our grown kids. Andrea definitely made Maggie very happy in their 4 days together.

Lauren and her "assistant Zoe" (her own dog) looked after Bella very well. The dogs had supervised playtime in the enclosed park, rather like a village green, and had ample time to chill and hang out together. Bella was very happy to stay with Lauren, and the whole experience was positive. Lauren is a very competent and caring boarder. I heartily recommend her!

Jaemin and his wife are wonderful caretakers for our Mylo. We were in a difficult situation when we left him with them, but they were incredibly calm, supportive, and understanding throughout. They followed all our instructions carefully and went above and beyond to provide extra care. We’re so glad we chose them and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and loving daycare. We truly appreciated the attention, patience, and care they showed Mylo.

It was our first time leaving our dear fur baby behind for a family overseas trip. It was nerve-wrecking not knowing what to do. We found Rover app and through that a very caring, dedicated sitter, Nuria. We received daily pictures and updates, which instantly put us at ease. Nuria even knitted a beautiful sweater for our beloved. We will definitely use her service again in the future.
