“Luke and Leia had another great stay with Karen. Thank you for watching them for us. We appreciate all the pictures and walks…. and the great care you take while they are with you.”
“Jackie and Jorge have watched our babies a few times and each experience has been so pleasant. Jackie is in constant communication with me offering updates and photos to check-in, which is very important to me. I can tell my babies love their stay as they get excited each time we drop them off. They have even accepted our short notice request which we appreciate. I highly recommend them for all of your pets needs.”
“We boarded our two Boston Terriers with Sarah for a little over a week. Sarah took good care, and every day while we were away she sent photos and an update. Our girls looked happy and healthy when we picked them up. Thank you Sarah! Would recommend.”
“A true gem—Cecilia is everything you could hope for in a sitter! We had the absolute pleasure of having Cecilia care for our pup, Luna, for 6 nights while we were away for my sister’s wedding. From the moment we dropped Luna off, Cecilia went above and beyond to make us feel at ease. She sent daily updates every morning, afternoon, and evening, complete with tons of adorable photos and videos that truly brightened our days and gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear Luna was happy, safe, and loved the entire time—her tail never stopped wagging in the videos! Cecilia’s communication was warm, consistent, and thoughtful. When we picked Luna up, she even had a little box of goodies waiting for us, which was such a sweet and unexpected touch. Cecilia is not only professional and reliable, but she has the kindest, most gentle soul. It’s rare to find someone who treats your pet like their own, and that’s exactly what Cecilia does. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely caring—look no further. We’d recommend her in a heartbeat and will absolutely be booking with her again! Thank you, Cecilia, for taking such incredible care of our girl!”

“Really grateful to Dave for caring for our dog while we were gone for a week . She is very sweet but can get easily frightened and act out, and he did a fantastic job making sure she felt comfortable and managing her nervousness. She definitely trusted and felt reassured with him which was great to see. He clearly knows his way around pets and did an amazing job with our pup. We would 100% use him again and trust him with our dog. Thanks Dave!”

Shavano Heights dog parents share their Rover experiences
Alexis took great care of my dog! I got daily updates and pictures while I was away. We chatted a few days before the boarding to answer any questions and that helped so much getting to know her. One of a kind dog sitter that goes above and beyond, next time I need a sitter she will be the first I reach out to!
This was my first time using a dog sitter outside of family, so I was a little nervous—but Karen made the whole experience stress-free! She provided plenty of pictures and videos throughout the stay, which really put my mind at ease. It was clear my dogs were happy, comfortable, and having a great time. I truly appreciate the care and attention she gave them. Highly recommend!
I can't say enough great things about Chris! Earlier this year, we found a stray puppy and decided to foster her to find her a home. Unfortunately, one of our dogs was not happy to have her puppy energy in the home. Chris came to the rescue and ended up helping us with her for months until we were able to find her the most perfect home for her. He truly helped us save her, and in the meantime, helped train her, get her on the right food for her body type and socialize her with other dogs. He even went to really great lengths to try to help find her a home for which I will be forever grateful! Not a lot of people will step up to help in this way. He was awesome, and communicative. We got lots of great pics of the pup having a great time too. Even when I was swamped with work and was not as responsive as I should have been, he was very kind about it and worked with us to make sure Mia always got the best care.
My dog Jax stayed with Cecilia for five days, and she was absolutely amazing! She went above and beyond to care for him, especially when it came to getting him to eat, he’s a very picky eater, but she was so patient and creative. Jax also got to play with her sweet dogs, which made him feel right at home. Cecilia sent me daily updates with videos and pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I could tell he was happy and well cared for. I highly recommend her!
Rocio & Miwaki are awesome! They’re so good with my furbaby, Koko! They’re super nice and always keep me updated throughout the stay with videos and pictures. I trust Koko is in great hands whenever she stays with them and will definitely use them again in the future! ☺️
This was Arianna’s second time watching Lola, and once again, she was amazing! We were gone for 5 days which is the longest we’ve ever been away from Lola and Arianna kept us in the loop the whole time with photos, videos, and updates. It was so comforting to see how relaxed and happy Lola was with her. We trust Arianna completely and are so grateful for the love and care she gives our pup! 🐶💕
Bianca was exceptional in taking pictures of Dora for us to see. Dora had an attitude when she got back home so we know she was treated good. It was a last minute booking and Bianca accepted Dora with a little over an hour notice. We’re appreciative. When Dora is back in town we know who we want to call.
