“Angela & her family watched my frenchie and labradoodle for 2 nights and send photos and updates throughout their stay. It’s always nice to know that your pups are in such good hands and taken care of! Thank you!”


“What a great experience we had with Linda and her family! My Simon boy enjoyed his stay immensely and he was taken care of so well, I’m so happy with his stay. When I picked him up I could tell he felt relaxed and comfortable in the home and with the family. They sent daily pictures and updates which were so helpful. Simon is a senior boy and has some challenges but they handled it like it was a breeze. I’m so grateful for their care. They even sent me home with homemade dog treats and a few cookies for myself even! I would never hesitate to use Linda and her family again, I highly recommend them. Thanks again Linda! I think Simon misses you. :)”


“Great experience! Our dog was a little shy at first but Cameron won her heart with a jog and play at a nearby park. Super prepared - he had all her details on a whiteboard when we arrived. Great place and person!”


“Holly and her family took great care of my nervous mini labradoodle. She sent updates and pictures of my pup each day. I could tell she was well loved. I am so glad I found Holly and will definitely use her again!”


“I was a little nervous about leaving my dog since she went blind but Krisanne and Gaston took excellent and loving care of her! I had updates, photos and videos every day. My dog was walked everyday and they followed all instructions. Highly recommend. They are trustworthy and so nice!”


“Carol and Michael were great from the first contact to the last. They took such good care of Millie and sent photis and messages while I was away. Their home is a great setup with a dog door and nice back yard. They kept my mini dachshund for 2 weeks. I plan to use them again!”


“Scot was so great to work with. He let us come and see his place and meet him before our trip. He sent us update pics (which I LOVED) and let me know they were ok throughout their stay. 10/10 would recommend. Definitely going to be back with my boys.?? Thank you Scot!!!”


“Amy took such great care of our dog for over a week. Our dog has abundant energy and it was so good he could get good exercise playing with her dog Bronx in their spacious back yard. We felt so comfortable that he was in good hands and their family showed such love and attention to our dog. Amy kept us up to date and sent lots of videos . We would recommend her to others!”


“Tamee and her family were amazing with our dog Ginger! It was such a relief knowing she was in a loving home and getting plenty of attention while we were away. We got regular updates and could tell Ginger was happy and well cared for. Highly recommend Tamee—we’ll definitely book with her again!”



“Jennifer picked my dogs up and dropped them off. she was good with them for the small amount of time I witnessed the interaction. I’m sure they had a good time because they were both tired.”


“So glad I’ve had the chance to have Jaren watch my English bulldog. Even though my dog is an easy dog to get along with, Jaren was awesome with her. My dog had a great time at his house, and I’ll definitely reach out to him again the next time I’m out of town.”


“Krishna and her whole family loved on our Cosmo. He was happy and bouncing around when we picked him up. Always nice to have a host express how much they liked watching your dog.”


“Luna did an amazing job with Bentley. From being able to be quick and thorough with communication, to sending lovely pictures and videos of him enjoying his time - she made this experience worthwhile! Luna took the time to get to know Bentley and his little quirky-pup ways. She figured out his favorite types of toys, his play style, and his preferred breaks and resting. She worked hard to make sure that he acclimated and was fine with all the other dogs. It's crazy to me to think that she was able to do this with my Bentley and the other pets. Bentley usually comes running to me and is ready to go home the second he sees me whenever I pick him up from daycare or boarding. This tim he was very happy to see me, but he actually went back to show some love and say thank you to miss Luna of his own accord. It was so sweet! I can't stress enough how lovely it is to see my boy so happy and so loved especially when I had to be away from him for a little while. 10 out of 10 would highly recommend Luna and her services. She went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable, happy and safe.”


“Melanie and Emerson were fantastic with our Great Dane! They welcomed him into their home like he was part of the family. They were super flexible with dropping him off and picking him up. They also kept us posted with pictures and updates while we were away. They took really good care of him. I get nervous trusting people with my big boy but was very pleased with them. We will definitely use them again in the future! Thank you guys for taking care of our big baby!”



“Chanda and Chad are the BEST! Not only did they take amazing car of my dog, but they kept me updated each day with the cutest pictures letting me know that he was having the time of his life! He came home exhausted and happy! They are very knowledgeable about dog behaviors and have plenty of experience taking care of all kinds and types. On top of everything they did to take such good care of my dog, they were super flexible when we got stuck in the airport and had to change pickup times due to weather. I am so grateful for everything they did to put me at ease during our 10 day vacation as well as a last-minute stressful extension. I would 10/10 recommend them to all of my friends and family as well as anyone here on Rover! They are incredible! Thank you so much Chanda and Chad!”


“This was the first experience we have used Rover and we could of not been more satisfied. The meet & greet went very well and smooth. Cynthia has a lot of knowledge, care, and love for dogs. We've used other doggy day cares once before and our dog Yoshi was not a fan, he never howls and apparently he was howling all night because he was sad. Yoshi's stay with Cynthia he felt comfortable like he was at our own home. She sent us pictures of him daily and gave us detailed status reports as his parents were away getting married :) We will definitely be using Cynthia and her services in the future and I'm sure Yoshi can't wait to go back!”

Santa Clara dog parents share their Rover experiences
Jenny was absolutely FANTASTIC!! We didn’t have time to meet her prior to dropping off our dogs, but as soon as we arrived, we felt very comfortable leaving our dogs with her. Our two dogs warmed up to her right away as well. Jenny has amazing communication and sent us pictures of our dogs every day. She was so great to work with our crazy schedule. Our dogs always looked liked they were being fed, getting to cuddle on the couch, and play fetch! We highly recommend using Jenny’s services. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for taking such great care of our dogs ♥️

It's never easy leaving your fur babies, but we left our 10yo dog and our 6mo puppy with Rachel for a week, and it sure is nerve-wracking leaving a puppy that is still training. Our dogs had such a good time and were so well cared for! We got pictures every day, and could tell they were happy and healthy. She was incredibly patient with our puppy still training, it was so appreciated! Our dogs also loved playing with her dogs!

Pamela did a great job with my two dogs, she kept us up to date with pictures, made sure they got exercise and I think she even gave them a bath before we got home (they smelled better than when I dropped them off). My standoffish dog loved her and she even help refine my puppy’s training!
