“First time I've ever borded my 2 dogs. One had special instructions and medication she was on. Michael did a perfect job with everything. He let me see inside, everything was very organized, and his home is beautiful. He contacted me about a couple things which let me know how closely he was observing their eating habits. Couldn't have asked for a better dog bording experience while traveling for a whole week.”


“Dayana took such good care of Roxy. She is settled and well, when normally she is extremely nervous. My Roxy felt safe. I would rate higher than 5 stars ⭐️, if I could.”


“Frankie and Alice have stayed with Phillip several times now, and it's clear that they have a great time when they're there. Lots of outdoor space and time, human and canine friends, well cared for. Highly recommend!”


“We selected Hugo & Julia to board our black lab, Beau for 5 days. He had a wonderful time under their care. He stayed with other dogs and got to run and play outside with them. Hugo & Julia sent updates and pictures often of Beau having a wonderful time during his stay. We will definitely use them again when we need to travel. Highly recommended!!”


“We had such a terrific experience leaving our pup here! It was the first vacation we had taken without her and we were a bit nervous but Michelle and Mike were so great about sending updates and pics throughout the week. It helped us relax and enjoy ourselves knowing our dog was in great hands!”


“Very happy with Briana's services. She took great care of my girl Mya, especially since she's got a few health issues. I felt at ease leaving Mya in her care and will definitely reach out to her again in the future.”


“Recently we lost one of our two dogs. We had a trip planned for only a couple weeks later and had to board our second dog alone for the first time. Gabe was an excellent choice and probably the most knowledgeable in training that we have had so far! He was communicative, responsible, and made us feel completely confident while we were gone! Definitely will be giving him a call again for our trips.”


“Extremely accommodating, flexible, and knowledgeable about dog care. They were able to accommodate us at short notice, which was greatly appreciated. Their setup with separate enclosures to acclimate dogs slowly is very nice. Provided updates and photos/videos regularly, quick to respond to inquiries. Zuko had a great time and was well taken care of. Calm and happy upon pickup. Paul is now our go-to for dog care!”


“Jake found his home away from home. Lauren was attentive and communicated consistently throughout Jake's stay. The daily photos and updates were appreciated so we could keep tabs on our furry pet. Jake settled well back home after his stay. Thank you for caring so well for our dog 🐕”


“Meli is a fantastic sitter! She took awesome care of my pup, Chunk. I really enjoyed the pictures that she sent me throughout the day. It was a comfort knowing that he was in good hands. You can tell that she is very passionate about animals!”


“Riven and Matt were great! They were able to take care of my pup, Lula Mae, while I needed to be out of town on short notice. Lu was clearly well cared for and happy with them. Really appreciate it!!”


“Radhika and her family did a fantastic job watching over and taking care of our pup while we were out of state for a few days over the 4th Holiday. I absolutely recommend Radhika as a trusted sitter for anyone’s dog. It was a relief to know our dog was in great hands while we were away.”



“Vicky and her family took amazing care of our dog Daisy during our vacation. Daisy received very attentive care, Vicky was very responsive to all communication, reassuring us that Daisy was doing well. We also received wonderful photos of Daisy enjoying her vacation with Vicky and her family. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing Daisy was well cared for.”



“Anastasia is amazing, friendly and happy young lady. This was the first time my St. Bernard was away from home. He was well cared for. He came home happy and exhausted. Absolutely recommend.”


“This was my first time using Rover, and I was a little nervous to leave Titan with someone new. But Peter put my mind at ease right away. He took such great care of Titan, sending me daily pictures and videos with updates that made me smile. It turns out I was nervous for nothing — Titan was happy, comfortable, and clearly enjoyed his time with Peter. I’m so grateful for the care and attention he gave, and I would absolutely book with him again!”


“Ben took great care of my beloved dog Turtle. I had to visit an elderly family member in Florida.. let’s just say not a moment too soon. Turtle goes with me everywhere every day, so Ben’s one on one service was great for us. Thank You.”

South Lancaster dog parents share their Rover experiences
My 9.5 lb 12 month old pup stayed with Victoria and her family for a week and had the best time playing with the children both inside and out, and meeting the grandfather. My pup had two prior daytime visits with the family. Just days before the visit, my pup had urgent veterinary care and was placed on medication and a special diet. Victoria and I discussed these changes in advance; and Victoria managed with aplomb both the vet required protocol and my pup's chewing of her bedding (which she hadn't done before). The photos sent were enormously reassuring that all was well for both the pup and the family.

Ben agreed to take Bowie last minute. Bowie can be hesitant with men but she barely looked at him twice when we arrived- I almost fell over. That meant she was 1000% comfortable in his energy. When we left, Bowie didn’t even look at us. There’s nothing better when you’re feeling that guilt of leaving your dog and knowing they don’t care 😂. We got pics every day and Bowie was so well loved while we were gone.

I cannot recommend My enough! They were incredibly accommodating with both drop-off and pick-up times, making everything so easy. My dog was clearly spoiled and loved every minute of their stay. My went above and beyond by providing frequent updates and tons of photos, which put my mind at ease. It’s clear they genuinely care about the dogs they watch.
