“My dog had so much fun while I was on vacation. It is like he was on a vacation of his own. They cared for my dog like he was their dog and even sent me updates. This was the longest I left my dog with someone and I was comfortable the whole time. I highly recommend Rodney and Marissa and will return in the future. Thank you again!”
“Link enjoyed his stay. The videos of him having zoomies don’t lie. Picked him up and he was tuckered. Thank you Curtis, Lindsey and family for treating Link as one of your own. Will definitely book you guys for future times when Link can’t travel with us.”
“James and Mary are wonderful! They took such great care of Hoosier while we were away and always kept us updated with how he was doing with daily pictures! I felt at ease and was able to relax while on vacation knowing he was in such great hands. Big thank you to them for being so wonderful and looking forward to the next time Hoosier spends some time with James and Mary!”
“Margaret is simply wonderful. The time I spend away from my pet is worry-free because I know Margaret is taking excellent care of Nando. She is gentle, kind, and warm and obviously loves animals. I feel fortunate to have found a place to take my dog where he is happy and well cared for.”
“Esther and Yi did a fantastic job of boarding Leo for me while I was out of country. I could tell from the photos and videos they shared that he was having a blast. I highly recommend them if you need someone to care for your dog while you are away.”
“Candela’s stay with Jessica was great! Jessica accepted a last minute request from us when our original sitter fell through. She was so accommodating and responsive. We got updates and pics. Canela seemed to have a good time!”

“Alicia and James took great care of my 14-yr-old bichon, Dora. Their dogs, Piper and Hannah, are incredibly sweet, and they all seemed to get along well. Alicia sent me photos of Dora exploring the backyard, napping on dog beds, and generally having a wonderful time.”
“Jenna is wonderful. She keeps us updated daily and her family gives our Stella a lot of TLC. We keep coming back and will continue coming back whenever we go away.”

“Lora and her family are phenomenal. They are definitely going to be my ongoing sitter for my girls. I took an international trip and I didnt worry about my two dogs once. They were taken care of very well to the point where when they got home I think they miss Lora and their furry friends at her house. She sent me the most beautiful videos of my girls running and having a blast on their property which is a tremendous yard and her dog Nash is a total sweetheart. Thank you for taking such lovely care of my fur faces :-).”
“Karen and Patrick are the best! We felt so comfortable leaving our dog with them and the pictures they sent showed that he was having a wonderful time. We will definitely use them again!”
“Brittanie and Ryan were wonderful sitters for our dog this weekend! She seemed to have gotten very comfortable in their home pretty quickly and had no issue coexisting with their dogs at all. They sent frequent update pictures and really went above and beyond bringing our dog to our wedding so she could be included in our pictures. Overall great first Rover experience and would happily use them again!”
“Cola was well taken care of for her overnight stay with Auana! I received photo updates and they treated her like one of their own! Even going the extra mile to brush her and send her back so happy :)”
“Ryan was an excellent sitter for Henry. My pup seemed to be relaxed and happy during his stay. Ryan's communication was easy and great. I will definitely will book again with Ryan!”
