“Jenny was phenomenal. She was very flexible with the times on drop off and pick up. Ember was happy with the long walks and nap time right next to Jenny. We were so glad our first time back on rover was made easy and delightful. Definitely going to be asking her again!”
“Kelti & Tanner are awesome! They are committed to accommodating you and your pet in all ways possible (incl. waking up to feed your dog at 5:30 AM/6 AM on weekends) If you're like me, then you are anxious whenever you have to leave your pet. While my big boy (Koda, a 78-pound yellow/white labrador retriever) stayed with with Kelti & Tanner, I knew I had nothing to worry about. That peace of mind is priceless.”
“Bill and Haley are more than I could ask for in dog sitters… once after my fight got delayed, they were willing to bring my dog Sadie out to the car at 1 am, so I wouldn’t have to drive back the next morning. They go above and beyond in attention, care and kindness. I absolutely highly recommend their services!”
About: I have been pet sitting since I was in high school. I have experience in dog walking, watching pets at my home or theirs, and volunteering at local shelters. I'm currently working full time, so I am available nights and weekends to board your pet. This is to ensure that I can give your pet the attention they deserve! I have a huge fenced in yard and also 5 dogs of my own, so your pet will surely get lots of love and exercise at my home!
“Madison took great care of my girl! She sent me daily updates and photos and responded promptly whenever I reached out. She treated her as if she were her own and I would definitely trust her to watch my baby again!”
“Matthew and his family always treat Oakley like one of their own. Leaving him with Matthew gives me peace of mind that I know he will be taken care of and I don’t have to worry. Always excellent!”
“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.”
“We have a very timid and Anxious puppy and Tasha and Joseph really knew how to handle him and slowly introduce him to their home and other dogs. He ended up doing great with their dogs and I’m not even sure he was excited to see me when I picked him up! Thanks again guys and we will definitely book again ?”
“Simon loved staying with Dana! Dana sent pictures throughout Simons stay and made sure to answer any questions we had. It was a home away from home for Simon. I would book again and I highly recommend!”
“Leeann was absolutely wonderful with our little guy. She provided regular updates and even sent some pictures. We are so happy with the decision to book Leeann and will definitely use her again for future trips!”
“Felt completely comfortable leaving Happy with Lauren and Wynn. Loved getting pics and updates throughout our trip. Lauren and Wynn were fine with her spunky personality and relentless need for attention :) Definitely will call them again in the future!”
“Annie comes back so very happy and calm and she is so well taken care of! She loved it at her home away from home! Thanks for being so loving and kind and for the pictures! We had a great time scrapbooking knowing Annie was in good hands.”
“I was glad to have found Kim via Rover. My cousins were able to have lots of fun attending my son’s wedding knowing their fur baby Macchie was cared for very well. Kim was very accomodating! Such a good experience. Will choose her again in the future!”
“Patricia is a great sitter! I appreciate that she offered a meet and greet quickly and was very communicative throughout Annie Oakley's stay. We will definitely ask for her to sit Annie again.”
“I have reviewed Cori many times as our girls are definitely repeat visitors! The best testament to their time there is how excited they get knowing they are rounding the corner toward her house. Knowing they love their time and can't wait to get there gives me so much comfort! Our girls both have special dietary needs and our GSD has anxiety issues. Nothing seems to phase her or her family. They handle those challenges beautifully. We get lots of updates, photos and videos. Our girls are part of the family while they are there and I know they are loved, cuddled with, played with, and well cared for. If you need to know more, please look at my other reviews. So much to say! I highly recommend her and will always feel confident about leaving our furbabies with her! Thanks, Cori and family!”
Southgate dog parents share their Rover experiences
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.
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!
This was Mango’s first Rover sitter and as a (possibly overly so) doting dog mom I was a little anxious. Lexi was fantastic, providing daily updates and pictures that really helped put me at ease. Mango, on the other hand, clearly had a great time and enjoyed her vacation thoroughly. I would absolutely book with Lexi again!
Stuart & Tracie were absolutely wonderful with Stanley! He went on lots of walks, they sent great pics of him the entire time and Stanley came home exhausted from his fun stay with them! Thanks so much you guys for taking such great care of our Stanley ; ) We will definitely be booking with them a lot in the future :)
Corey was great to work with! He was responsive to messages, sent pictures and gave updates on how our boy, Arlo was doing during his stay! He accommodated our slightly challenging travel schedule that made drop off later than we anticipated, which was very much appreciated! If we’re in the area we would have our dog stay with him again!
Jennifer and her family took great care of our 14 year old husky shepherd. She was safe, well cared for and enjoyed the company and love from them. They communicated easily and sent pictures…our trip was amazing and we never worried for a minute! Thank you Jennifer!!!!
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.
