“Kathy is always so incredible with our dog Carmen. She always has several other sweet dogs there for the weekends, so lots of activity! Kathy is great at keeping us updated on her weekend. Highly recommend her.”
“Maria put our mind at ease by sending pictures of our luna each day and a comforting few sentences on how she was doing. This was our 1st time with Rover and we were very satisfied with Maria.”
“Really appreciative of Richard for doing such a great job watching my dog Oscar while I was away. Richard was pleasant, his dogs were very friendly, and his home seemed like a great and safe environment for Oscar. Richard was kind enough to book with me right at the last minute and sent me photos and videos to update me during my trip. Definitely would recommend Richard to anyone looking to board their dog.”
“This was my dog’s second boarding stay with Michael, I knew she was in good hands. Great communication with Michael and I appreciated the video updates while I was away. Thank you!”
“Devin and Tim were awesome with my pup, Charley! Excellent communication, accommodating of my pups schedules and needs, and sent pictures and videos while she was with them. I would highly recommend using them!”
“Chang was amazing and took great care of Duran while he stayed with her. He loved playing with her and her dog, as well as the other dog she had staying with her. He really enjoyed his stay and I could tell because the couple of times I picked him up and dropped him back he couldn't wait to go inside her place and play with his new friends!”
“Highly recommend Stacey for dog boarding. We kept our pup there for 4-5 days recently. Stacey was very communicative as well as flexible wrt drop-off and pick-up times. They have a lot of open grounds at the property and long leads so that dogs can run around. I think my beagle pup had a lot of fun being outdoors at Stacey’s”
“I am totally comfortable leaving our dog (2 y/o Whippet) with Anthony as his caregiver. Anthony is conscientious about sending pics and updates, and I know Finn is getting exercise and attention when he is with Anthony. Our dog is happy and tired when he returns to us, and I know he is well cared for! We are delighted to have found Anthony (and his wife, Leslie) on our first Rover experience = they are the real-deal. I am happy to recommend!”
“Emily and Patrick were very kind and flexible with us when my boyfriend and I needed a dog sitter for a wedding. We were late picking her up and they were very understanding. Our dog and Eli must have had a blast together, because slept the entire next day! We will be using them again in the future!!”
“We had such a great experience having Angeline and her family take care of our dog, Marley! We knew right away that he would be well cared for and would love staying in her home. Marley had a fun week playing with their dogs and I know he had a blast because he was honestly smiling in many of the pictures she sent to us. It was great getting to see our pup so happy there! We would absolutely have Angeline watch Marley again! We really appreciated her being so nice!!!!”
“Heather n her family were great with Dexter! He enjoyed his vacation too! He was so clean n shiny when we picked him up, his hair looked awesome! He smelled like a farm dog so I added a bath, since I didn’t get time to bathe him before we left. Thank you so much! Dexter will be back!”
“I was worried about leaving my dog with someone other than my family because he has really bad separation anxiety, but Leo sent me pictures and videos of Max going on walks and playing in their yard and having a better time than I would’ve imagined! I loved getting several updates throughout the day, and it made it easier for me as well!”
“Loved having Cassandra watch my pup! She was extremely communicative and didn't mock my neuroticism when I wrote PAGES of instructions ? she helped train my puppy as well! I could tell my dog was well cared for and even loved! Would definitely recommend to anyone.”
“Kim was so accommodating with me. Willow was going to arrive around 2pm, then 4pm and then after 5pm as our drive and lunch stop took longer than expected. Willow is not used to other dogs since she is an only dog at home and can get quite stressed but she was great when I picked her up and Kim and her husband updated me with pictures with her on their laps and outside. She was always very prompt to respond. Nice big back yard which Willow loves. Overall, it was a great experience - way better than a kennel.”
“Very happy with the service Wendy provided boarding my 2 rambunctious dogs! I got daily pics or videos, and regular updates on how they were doing. They were in perfect condition when I picked them up, and we even got a take-home gift bag full of toys & treats! Will definitely call on Wendy when I need to board them again.”
“Lindsey and Bob are the best. My dog is very friendly but a lot to handle because he has high exercise needs. They do a great job not only taking care of him but also he has a blast there playing with their dogs and family. I highly recommend them!”
“Laurie was wonderful with Gracie! I was a little nervous letting Gracie stay away but from the moment we had our meet & greet I felt very comfortable. Laurie, her sweet dog Daphne & daughter were very warm and welcoming. Laurie provided many check-ins and promptly answered all of the questions I had. I would definitely Laurie to anyone looking for a sitter and plan to use Laurie again in the future!”
“James did a fantastic job taking care of my dog for a week, soon after I moved to Fort Myers. His house and yard are very clean and spacious, and he has a friendly dog (Myles) who was great company. James, himself, is clearly a devoted dog person himself, and is also clearly motivated to do a great job as a dog-sitter. It was obvious, throughout my dog's stay, that James cared about her and keeping her feeling comfortable. As for my level of comfort, he texted me regularly while I was away, often including photos of my dog. And he responded immediately when I texted or called for information. Finally, I could tell that my dog was very comfortable at James' and Myles' house, from the meet-and-greet to the pick-up. I can't recommend James highly enough.”
