1. Cayce K.

“As first time Rover users, Cayce helped put as at ease with leaving our pet with a Rover sitter. Cayce was friendly, asked questions to get to know Peach during our Meet & Greet, and was willing to listen to us as we shared the ins and outs of our high energy Husky puppy. We received plenty of updates and pictures while Peach was at Cayce's home for boarding. Our pup made herself right at home! We would definitely book Cayce again!”

“Karen was amazing with Charlie. We couldn’t have asked for a better environment for him! We got many pic and video updates while we were gone over a 4 day span. Charlie has a new home away from home!”

5. Thomas & Lyndsay Z.

“Thomas and Lyndsay took great care of my baby. This was the first time leaving Mika with a sitter, and we were afraid she wouldn't be ok, but she was very happy. We would definitely leave her again any time with them. Thanks for everything!!”


6. Ashlee P.


“Ashlee and her family showed so much love to our little dog Lola during her recent stay. We received daily updates with pictures of Lola playing with her kids and other doggy friends. Lola was very comfortable on her favorite seat on the sofa. Ashlee has a spacious patio for Lola to roam outside with a perfect spot for potty on a small lawn area. Ashlee helped Lola stay on her feeding routine with different types of food and snacks during each day. Lola was full of energy and pep when we picked her up. Thank you Ashlee for taking such great care of Lola while we enjoyed a relaxing vacation. ~ Julie and Dale”

“Cynthia and her family are amazing! Cynthia was in contact with me daily for updates and pictures. She made sure my dog was well taken care of and felt right at home. I highly recommend Cynthia for any and all future visits. She and her family will take care of your dog like they are their own and make you feel more than comfortable about leaving your pup for a few days!”




8. Randal R.

“Randal was outstanding with Piper! We were first time Rover users and had never left Piper with anyone other than family or friends. The Meet & Great was a great opportunity to meet everyone along with the environment and made Piper feel like home when she arrived for the booking. We enjoyed the pics Randal sent and assured us that she was in good hands and was having fun!”

17. Diana J.

“If you’re looking for the best place to leave your pup, look no further, Diana is the one! I had to go on a last-minute trip, and not only did she come to the rescue, but she also took care of Rocky with so much love and dedication that I felt completely at ease. She kept me updated with photos and videos the whole time, and it was clear that Rocky was happy, comfortable, and in great hands. It’s rare to find someone so caring and committed to animals. I’ll definitely leave him with her again. Thank you for everything, Diana!”


18. Teresa K.

“While I was away on a staycation in Cocoa Beach, apparently Dewey Finn was also on his own staycation at Teresa’s dog vacation house! My dog was well cared for and lived like a king the entire stay. Teresa is amazing with the pets she takes in. I did not worry one minute while I was away. Dewey had a blast running around the pool, playing with the other dogs and at the end of a day of fun, he cuddled on the sofa with Teresa and her clan! Thank you so much Teresa.”


19. Andrew B.

“Andrew was so kind and loving to Linus. The fenced in backyard was great for getting out energy in a safe space. Lots of photos and text updates, too. Would recommend!”

“To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to highly recommend Keagan as a dog sitter. Having worked as a vet tech and with years of experience caring for animals, Keagan has demonstrated exceptional skills and an innate understanding of animal needs. Keagan’s love for animals is evident in every interaction. She is not only knowledgeable about animal health and behavior but also incredibly kind and compassionate.
