Huge thank you to Donald for taking such good care of our Labrador Poppy. This was Poppy's first time staying with someone else and Donald couldn’t have been any better, he built a relationship with Poppy at our meet snd greet and it was very easy to see how comfortable Poppy was with Donald and his lovely Mum. Donald made sure Poppy was walked frequently and stuck to the routine Poppy has at home. She also had plenty of space in Donalds back garden to play with her football. We will definitely be booking with Donald again.

Jennifer was kind, helpful and efficient at getting back to me, and making quick arrangements for a stay as well as squeezing in a Meet and Greet beforehand. I was impressed with the Meet & Greet, as well as showing us around her home and garden, Jennifer wanted to go for a walk with Digory and ourselves so that she could see firsthand how to handle him. Very reassuring. From the start, it was clear to us that Digory was settled and happy. Regular messages, questions and pictures assured us that he was being carefully and thoughtfully looked after.

Koko and his family were absolutely amazing with my Lab, Benny! From the start, Koko was very communitive while setting up the booking. Dropping off I felt like Benny was in really safe hands. Koko kept me updated multiple times a day with messages and photos, which made such a difference and gave me total peace of mind. Benny loved playing with their daughter, and in pics its obvious he loved the entire family as he was smiling in almost every picture. They had a lovely garden Benny was able to run and play ball in. Benny was happy and relaxed when time for pickup and napped several times that day as he had enjoyed their company so much! If you're thinking about booking with Kwok, just do it! Highly recommended!

Michael looked after our 10 month old working spaniel puppy and I can tell she had an absolute blast and had lots of fun. Michael kept me up to date throughout the day sending lots of photos which was great to see and helped us enjoy our weekend away! Michael asked all the questions before we left about her routine n likes so Alba would feel at home! Got her back and she is already shattered! Will defo be using Michael again in the future

Contacted Anne Marie for home boarding for our 10 year old lhasa apso for our recent trip. A lovely lady who was enthusiastic, caring and affectionate towards our wee dog. She kept us advised of his progress during the 2 weeks we were away, as this was the first time we had left him with someone we didn't know. When we came back he was very happy to see us and we knew that she had cared for him ever so well. I am happy to recommend Anne Marie to anyone who needs their dog looked after.

Anna looked after our black lab pup for one night. We were a bit apprehensive leaving him being only 6 months but Anna was great. Updated us throughout the night and bear the following morning seemed very happy! Would definitely recommend Anna and we would absolutely use here again in the future. Thanks Anna

Dora had a lovely stay with Jessica. Jessica is so friendly and Dora was very comfortable with her straight away. Dora went for a walk and a wee visit to meet some of Jessica’s family, and as we picked her up in the morning, they drove by and Dora was delighted to see them again! It was lovely - like Dora had been part of the family for 24 hours! No stress, no drama just a very happy dog. If we are ever in need of a dog sitter again in these we will definitely see if Jessica is available.

Nicola and Tom went way beyond what we expected from a dog sitter. Our Cavalier was given the five star treatment with plenty of exercise and a welcome home. We were provided with daily updates via WhatsApp while we were away to reassure us that our dog was settling in to his temporary home. I wouldn’t hesitate to go back to Nicola and Tom and would thoroughly recommend them - they were a pleasure to deal with.

Absolutely fantastic boarder. Could not recommend Kirsty enough, nothing was a hassle and Peanut had the best time. Lots of pictures and updates ! He looked like he had the best time and I will absolutely use Kirsty in the future. Think Peanut enjoyed his holiday more than i did !! Thanks you Kirsty.

About: Hi I’m new to Rover but have over 20 years experience of looking after my own and clients’ dogs. I will treat your dogs just like my own, ensuring they receive unique and appropriate care whilst they are with me. I appreciate all dogs are so different and will go the extra mile to make them feel safe in my home. Having had many dogs into old age, senior dogs are perhaps a speciality of mine. I am unphased by larger breeds as I currently have a Romanian shepherd dog aged 1. She is very friendly and loves the company of other dogs. I live 5 minutes walk from the beach at Greenan Shore and just a 5 minute drive to the two beautiful local parks. The safety of your pets is paramount, I will only walk off lead with your written permission. As I have a 10 year old son, I can only take pets who are completely safe with children. My son also knows not to over pet a dog and respect space having had a very tricky rescue dog of our own in the past for many years. I am fully insured by Cliverton Pet Insurance. I work mainly from home so your pets will not be left unattended for more than 3 hours. If you have specific requests I will discuss these fully with you. I have an enclosed, private fenced garden. There is also plenty of room in the house for your pet to roam around freely. I live in a quiet, safe neighbourhood.

Dean was very easy to deal with and happy to fit in with Alfie’s existing routine. Alfie seemed to enjoy his short stay & relaxed into belly rubs and playing and for an anxious dog that was a big win! I would recommend Dean & will use his service again *****

Ebony was a life saver and cared for my dog Daisy for 5 days when i was on holiday, which was a very last minute arrangement. I was a bit apprehensive as i've never used this service or Rover before. I couldn't be happier with the service Daisy received. my mind was put at ease as soon as Ebony collected Daisy and she asked all about our routine, likes and dislikes. I was kept updated through the app and sent photographs which was lovely. I wouldn't hesitate to use Ebony again in the future to care for Daisy. Thank you so much for everything.
