“Lauren and Matt were amazing with our two dogs. We have an older dog and a puppy that have very different requirements- including medication like eye drops. They sent updates with photos throughout the day and I felt totally comfortable our entire trip that our boys were well taken care of. We will be using them again!!”

“Jay was super accommodating and communicative. He was also receptive to being booked last minute! Visited from Brooklyn and left our lab with Jay. Worked out flawlessly- and she seemed to really enjoy her time with him :) thanks again!”

“Prompt, thorough communication to set up meet & greet and stay. Sent updates and photos a couple of times per day while we were away, which was really comforting. We could tell from pictures that our Zoe was happy and enjoyed her with Megan and her family”

“My dog, Bowie, had another great stay with Jan & Patrick! He's always so excited to hang out with Jan & Patrick and really enjoys the yard and long walks. I look forward to booking again!”

“This was the second time BoJo spent time at Elisha's and it was wonderful. He's very content there because Elisha cuddles with him, her dog, Dudley, and BoJo get along famously and she just cares. She's constantly sending photos of him during the day so I know he's happy and healthy there. She's remarkable. I definitly recommend her and will use her again and again as the need arises.”

“Highly recommend! Our baby received excellent care and attention. Kyle was professional, kind, and kept us updated with messages and photos. It was clear our dog was in great hands. We will definitely use their services again when we come back to Denver!!”


“Rochelle was very responsive, and quick to book our last minute meet and greet/stay! She was very kind to my puppy, and although we had to pull her early (not getting along with additional pups being boarded) Rochelle was accommodating when it came to arranging pick up and getting the booking altered with rover!”

“Sara is amazing! she took excellent care of Rexzie and she is so patient and kind. I strongly reccomend her. she has such a positive vibe and light to her, my pup fell in love with her at first sight. Sara thank you so so much for everything. I will certainly be reaching out to you in the future!!”

“Eric & Lily were great hosts. I have a senior dog so I have lots of questions and more than normal requests (special diet, food preparation, medicines, etc...) Eric initiated the conversation via Zoom to make sure we were a good fit. I really appreciated that. He accommodated my dog and adapted his house to her behavior and needs. Good photos and videos too. I would book with him again!”

“Martha was wonderful! I felt completely comfortable leaving my boy in her care. She sent pictures and provided daily updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. She was attentive to all of his needs and took great care of him. It was clear he was in excellent hands the entire time. I truly appreciated her communication and dedication, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter!”


“I had a last minute trip and Gage was able to help out big time. He sent pics, took her on some hikes, and I came back to a very happy pup. I'd definitely use Gage again!”


“They were truly amazing. More then you could ever ask for for our pup. They probably treated him better than we do!!! They made him part of their family and we are so grateful.”

“Felicity and Sean were great with Kai! They updated me throughout my time away and sent photos. I felt very comfortable leaving my pup with them. I highly recommend their services! :)”


“Laura was great from the beginning. Very responsive and everything went smoothly. She provided daily updates including pictures! We felt comfortable leaving our dog in her care and would easily book with her again!”

“Samantha was amazing with my dog, Phoebe! She sent tons of pictures during Phoebe’s stay, was very communicative before and during the day, and Phoebe was so sad to leave Samantha’s house when we arrive to pick her up. We’ll definitely use Samantha again!”

“Kay looked after our dog, Tully, for a week while we were on vacation. It was the first time we had left her for that long, so we were apprehensive at first. Kay kept us updated and sent us pictures, and it looked like Tully was having a vacation of her own! Kay was also very accomodating of our flight schedule, which made pickup and drop off convenient. We would definitely book a stay with her again :)”

“Delane was great! Very thoughtful, attentive, professional and complimentary. My little girl had a great time the six days she was there! She provided me with photos and updates and I was very happy and comfortable with the care my little one was receiving. I will DEFINITELY use Delane again, I HIGHLY recommend her!”

Thornton pet parents share their Rover experiences
We’ve booked with Matt a few times, and our sweet husky Nala has always been very well taken care of. Matt is responsive, trustworthy, and keeps us updated with pictures throughout her stay. It gives us peace of mind knowing she’s happy and cared for while we’re away. Nala is always excited to stay with him!

Martha was wonderful! I felt completely comfortable leaving my boy in her care. She sent pictures and provided daily updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. She was attentive to all of his needs and took great care of him. It was clear he was in excellent hands the entire time. I truly appreciated her communication and dedication, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter!

Chris is amazing and took such great care of our high-energy puppy while we were out of town. Tons of pictures (we are SO grateful for that) and understanding. I recommend Chris to anyone with a medium or large dog who is social. We couldn’t ask for a better sitter.

We had a wonderful experience with Susan and would absolutely trust her with Winnie again. Our 11-year-old Morkie, Winnie, has several health issues and requires multiple medications, so finding someone we feel comfortable leaving her with is incredibly important. Susan did a great job making sure Winnie received all of her medications and was well cared for throughout her stay. Susan was very easy to communicate with and kept us updated every day with messages and pictures, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Winnie loves to explore, and she had a great time enjoying Susan’s backyard, going on walks through the neighborhood, and spending time with Susan and her family throughout the day. When we picked Winnie up, it was clear that she felt comfortable and well cared for in their home. That meant so much to us. We would definitely ask Susan to dog sit again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a safe, reliable, and caring place for their dog while they are away.

Tiffany and Dante were a huge help as we booked a relatively short notice boarding request. They were quick to respond and reassuring as it had been a while since we left our dog with anyone overnight. They were accommodating and flexible as we scheduled the meet-and-greet, drop off, and picked up later than expected due to flight delays. Overall great experience!

Jed was beyond amazing! This was our first time leaving our one-year-old dog while we went away on vacation, and he made the entire experience stress-free. He provided frequent updates throughout the day, which gave us so much comfort knowing our pup was in such great hands. It was clear that our dog was well cared for and genuinely enjoyed all the love, attention, and playtime he received while we were away. We couldn't have asked for a better experience. Thank you, Jed, for taking such wonderful care of our furry family member!

Alejandra was great. Xochi was well taken care of and seemed very happy and comfortable when I went to pick her up. Alejandra was also incredibly flexible. Our flight home was cancelled and I was so relieved that she was able to add a couple days onto the booking and keep watching Xochi until we were able to get back. She also sent me pictures and let me know how Xochi did with other pets, something I was nervous about

Brianne and Scott are thoughtful, kind, caring and conscientiousness. I have two dogs with individual needs and I felt confident after the meet and greet my pups would be in good hands. I try to be prepared for every situation and yet I think anything could have happened and they would know what to do. These are the kind of people you can trust in emergencies but are lucky to have for every day sitting. Thank you again! The dogs are happy and tired today.
