“Fantastic experience! Tasha and her family went above and beyond! They treated our dog like family. She sent pictures and updates throughout the stay. Could not be more pleased! Would absolutely recommend Tasha! We will use her again!!!”

“Diane was wonderful and we are so happy that we found her! She was so nice and welcomed our dog into her home on short notice. My family felt very comfortable knowing our dog Sebastian was having so much fun and getting lots of love!”

About: I’ve had animals since I was a kid and always enjoyed taking care of them! It’s very rewarding for me. In my early 20s I was a dog trainer I’m a stay at home dad. We have a 10 and a 5 year old. I take walks throughout the day and between my wife someone is always home unless we are taking the kids somewhere. If they like the car and the park I can even take them with me! I walk a lot and am outside with my kids throughout the day. My kids love dogs so they will be showered with love and cuddles (if they enjoy that).
“Leaving Mac with Sarah and her family was a true blessing for me and Mac both! The love and acceptance of mac was unconditional love ! You can't find anyone else that gives the attention,affection and love they gave!! I love Sarah and will most definitely have her watch him again ! 💝🤗😊”

“Olivia took such good care of Bernard! She was very communicative and kept us updated with photos. She has a great fenced in yard… allows for dogs to be active!!! Would def recommend.”

“Allie always keeps in contact, she is open to schedule changes . She sent me videos and pictures daily. She took such good care of my baby boy, Tucker. He wasn’t completely potty trained and she was willing to work with me. He had the best time with her and her pups. She was willing to help me in a great time of need without any questions. She is very responsive. Her home is so comfortable and as soon as I met her and her sweet pups I knew Tucker would be safe and well cared for!! Thank you Allie..”

“Amazing sitter! We were in town for a long weekend and the pups got their own mini vacation with Jenn. She sent updates, was timely, easy to communicate with, and was so accommodating to our two pups needs. Highly recommended!!!”

“Gabrielle (and her family) were nothing short of amazing with our Coco. Fantastic communication and lots of pics to see how happy our little girl was in her care. We are looking forward to lots of visits in the future.”

“Donna and Calvin were fantastic hosts! I knew my older Pomeranian was in great hands and I didn’t have to worry about him while I was away. Donna sent regular pictures and updates. He went on daily walks, and was given special attention with food because he doesn’t eat right away like other dogs. I highly recommend Donna and Calvin!”

“Steven and his family were amazing!! I felt so comfortable leaving our dogs with them. Our dogs had a wonderful time and Steven kept me updated with pictures and videos! We will definitely use him again!”

“Zoe’s first stay with Kim was great. She sent daily pics and updates…many with her children, who, I think, found a new playmate. Kim is friendly, engaging & very accommodating. We wouldn’t hesitate to leave Zoe with her again.”


“Taylor took great care of our 17 year old senior pup. She has an array of age-related needs, and he made sure she was comfortable, eating regularly, and getting outside...and all of those things are challenging for her at this point. I would highly recommend him!”

“Jerry was amazing and took excellent care of Raya. He even celebrated her first birthday with a pup cup and doggy cookies! I very much appreciated the updates and pictures of how she was doing. Highly recommend Jerry!”

“Pepper had so much fun at Daniel's!! I really appreciated his photos, videos, updates etc as i'm a new dog mom! But he really set my mind to ease and I can tell pepper had such a great weekend!!”

“Brinkley had an amazing time with Angela, never a dull moment always on the move. There were plenty of neighborhood walks, park visits, and even a fun beach trip. He loved hanging out with “Bear,” his new pup buddy, and the two played endlessly together. Angela kept us relaxed with daily updates, fun photos, and thoughtful touches that made Brinkley’s stay both exciting and restful. Thanks to Angela’s warm home, positive energy, and welcoming family, Brinkley missed them all last night, making our choice for his next boarding stay an easy one.”

“I had the pleasure of using Raquel's dog boarding service, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the experience! From the moment we dropped off our dog, we felt at ease knowing she would be in such caring and capable hands. Raquel was incredibly attentive, sending us updates and photos throughout our dog's stay, which really put our minds at rest. Her home is welcoming, with plenty of space for dogs to play and relax, including a large fenced-in yard that’s absolutely beautiful. Our dog had so much fun running and playing with Raquel's two I'm two boys. She came home happy, healthy, and well-cared-for, and we could tell she had a great time. I highly recommend Raquel's dog boarding service to anyone looking for a safe, loving environment for their pets!”

“Brooklin took amazing care of my cat, Lylla, while I was away. Lylla is very shy around new people, but Brooklin was incredibly patient and was able to get her to warm up, which says a lot! She went above and beyond to make sure Lylla was comfortable and cared for, even helping encourage her to eat when she wasn’t showing much interest in food. Communication was excellent throughout the entire stay. Brooklin kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing my spoiled girl was in good hands. I could tell she genuinely cared about Lylla’s well-being and treated her like her own. I would absolutely book with Brooklin again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter.”

“Cosette and her daughter took great care of Honey while I was away! Honey was a little nervous and had a hard time eating so she pulled out all the tricks to ensure she ate while we were gone!”

Skippers Corner dog parents share their Rover experiences
We had an absolutely phenomenal experience with Christina! This was the first time we’ve ever left our pup, so naturally we were a little nervous, but we truly didn’t have to worry at all. We received photos, videos, and updates throughout the day, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was obvious that our dog was getting plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and love. Our dog is young, energetic, and can be a handful at times, but our sitter handled her wonderfully and followed all of our care instructions perfectly. The best part was seeing how happy our dog was when we picked her up. She was clearly well cared for and comfortable the entire time. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely trust her with our dog again. Highly recommend!

Christa cared Kimber for about 4 months when we were in Wilmington at the beginning of 2026. We did not hesitate to contact Christa when we came back. She is extremely accommodating with our bizarre hectic schedule and extremely fair with her rates. I would highly recommend her. This was Kimber’s overnight weekend stay and Christa made her feel right at home.

This is th second time, our Nelly has spent with Danika and her family. And I think they really take our girl into their family. Her husband and kids are involved and make an effort to come out to greet us too. Nelly wears her emotions on her sleeve😂and she is a happy girl when we leave her and when we pick her up. This gives us a great peace of mind. Thank you, Danika. We look forward to Nelly staying with you again. And again.
