“I highly highly recommend Karen. She truly loves dogs and knows what she’s doing. We are so grateful that we found her. She took time to meet with us and our dog before his 4 night stay. She made drop off and pick up seemless. She sent pictures and videos every day! Our boy looked genuinely happy in every picture. She even taught him some things! Kyro is a high energy dog and he came home absolutely spent. Karen is amazing.”
“They made me feel comfortable leaving my puppy with them. They sent pictures everyday and they had other dogs for my puppy to socialize with and a big back yard. Thank you William and Haley for taking care of Rocky!”
“Cori and family are AWESOME! We have repeatedly taken our two dogs to be cared for and loved on by her and highly recommend. We have a super chill Lab and an anxiety-ridden GSD. And she flexes to both of their needs and has the patience and understanding to handle our GSD. Both require some special meds/foods. I know it is always a tough decision to leave your furbabies in someone else's hands but Cori and her family can give you peace of mind that your pups are having a fun, attentive vacation of their own and most importantly of all - they are safe and expertly cared for.”
“Monte did a wonderful job keeping tabs on my pup! He was kind and welcoming with the introductions, as well as his furry companion. Definitely will be contacting Monte again in the future.”
“Our 15-month old Golden Retriever Cooper enjoyed an active weekend with Chrissy’s family, her their dog and a visiting Golden. Sounds like Cooper enjoyed playing with his big friends in Chrissy’s yard. Chrissy was super accommodating with an early drop off and a late pickup. She promptly replied to my texts and sent us pictures which we appreciated. Very happy with his stay and would return without hesitation.”
“Have been sending Copper to them for years. They’ve always taken amazing care of him and are incredibly accommodating to changes in our travel. They respond quickly and Copper seems sad to leave every time.”
“This was the best experience for both Finn and I. Lisa was remarkable with Finn's stay and I will most defiantly have Finn stay with her on my next vacation.”
“Our dog Martin always enjoys himself when he is at Josephine's home. Josephine is very caring and has taken great care of Martin. She takes him to the dog park, which he loves and long walks. When he comes home after visiting Josephine’s house he is so wore out from all the fun that he had, that he has to rest. Josephine is informative, send pictures, and is so easy to communicate with. Josephine will be my first choice for a dog sitter going forward.”
“Super amazing experience. My dog did not want to leave when I went to pick him up. He had so much fun. He ran around the backyard and I got pictures of him from Tonia having all that fun. I will definitely be leaving him again maybe just for his fun vacation. Tonia is the best.”
“Hi Misty! We appreciate you for being available last Minute to keep Gigi over the Thanksgiving holiday. Always great to have dependable care while we are away from home. Thank you for providing great care to our Bernie! See you next time”
“We are so lucky to have found Shauna! Our Lab had an absolute blast playing with the other dogs in her huge fenced backyard. Shauna was very careful to get to know all the details about our girl and is focused on ensuring all her pups are safe, happy and well cared for. We had so much peace knowing Leia was in such great, trustworthy hands. She gave good updates with photos which also helped! It was clear when we picked up Leia, she loved it there and felt right at home. We also had a flight delay and Shauna was super flexible and understanding with us about the pickup- much appreciated! We could not have asked for more and recommend Shauna highly!”
“My pup seemed so happy and comfortable staying with Kelti and Tanner, especially with it being his first time away from home. I loved the updates and pictures I received. I would absolutely recommend them!”
“This was our first time getting a babysitter and it went great. Michelle was responsive and let me know that my puppy was doing great. Will definitely take her again.”
“I needed a place to board my dog for a night while my husband and I went to a wedding. Our dog has been to standard daycare facilities but isn't fond of being left alone so we didn't like the idea of her staying in a kennel. Alison was really accommodating and assured us that our sweet girl would get plenty of attention and play time with her own dogs, which is perfect because our girl loves to make friends. We were afraid that she'd have trouble settling in because she's very attached to us, but we were put at ease when Alison sent a picture of our girl sleeping on a comfy couch. They also made sure she had her allergy meds and food. This is exactly the environment and attention our dog needs to be comfortable being away from us for a bit. Thank you so much for watching her!”
“Ellis was an excellent sitter, he was very professional and kept me updated with photos/etc while he cared for my pup. He is also a veterinarian which gave me great peace of mind. I would 10/10 recommend him to anyone!”
“Leann is so wonderful and quite knowledgeable about dogs. She took great care of our two dachshunds, sent pictures and videos and communicated clearly regarding our pets. They came home happy and cheerful and Leann was ready ontime when we arrived to drop them and to pick them up. We would highly recommend Leann to all!”
“Abbie took great care of our dogs when we were out of town. They both get anxious about boarding and when we picked them up they were calm without any of the behavioral problems we sometimes experience. She has a big back yard and her house is comfortable for dogs with all sorts of needs. Definitely planning on reaching out again next time we go out of town.”

I can not recomment Stephanie enough. She takes such good care of our dogs and they LOVE her. We recently went on a long vacation and she had our pups for almost two weeks. One of the dogs got sick while they were there and she contacted me right away and wound up having to take her to the vet as there might have been some serious concerns. Stephanie is very knowledgable and knew what to do and what to look for. Long story short she took care of my Willow and she is fine. I am just extremely grateful that Stephanie is someone we can trust to care and love our dogs when we are away. I highly recommend her!!! Thank you Stephanie!!
Madison and Adam are the best sitters ever! They send plenty of pictures and Minnie got plenty of walks. They were flexible when I had to drop her off and pick her up a little after the original scheduled time due to flights. Minnie came back, so happy and energized. She had a mini vacation herself! I definitely recommend them to anyone.
Words cannot describe how wonderful Molly did with Gus! Molly was always responsive, sending tons of pictures and updates. Molly went above and beyond, as on the second day when Gus got a little sick, Molly was there to do anything and everything for him. I would 100% use Molly in the future when I am out of town for work again! Thank you so much for taking such good care of my boy!
Tyler was amazing with Finn. Super communicative the entire time which gave me a ton of peace of mind while I was away. He sent plenty of photos and videos, and you could tell Finn was genuinely happy and comfortable the whole stay. Tyler clearly cares and treats your dog like his own. Everything was smooth, easy, and stress free from start to finish. Would absolutely book with Tyler again without hesitation.
Rachelle was an incredible sitter, I highly recommend her to care for dogs especially those with special needs or those who need extra care of some kind. She is knowledgeable, caring, patient and understanding. We've never used Rover before and she spent extra time during the meet and greet to help me get comfortable with the process and get to know our dog-- an 8 year old Great Pyrenees/Alaskan malamute/Shepherd mix who jumps into action as a guard dog to protect everyone from any noise she hears. She cared for Chewie for four nights during below zero weather and 14+inches of snow. Rachelle kept Chewie busy with multiple enrichment games, was trained with e-collar, and gave anxiety medicine when needed for barking spells. Chewie is also known for finding things she shouldn't eat that are toxic to dogs, and Rachelle understood that as her home was very "doggy proof" and was able to keep her from getting into the trash,etc.. We look forward to boarding with Rachelle again!
Heaven was awesome with Chanel 🐶 My dog 2nd time doing rover and she was nice, and caring. She sent me a couple videos of her to update me on her progress😇I will definitely recommend her And I will be booking again! It was last minute and she booked her💕 just so grateful Thank you 🙏🏾 Heaven
Maddie was so great! I needed someone last minute and she was quick to respond and so nice. This was my first time using Rover and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I got regular pictures and updates, and though I was worried my dog would be anxious it was clear she was having a great time. I’ll definitely be booking with Maddie again!
