“Dennis had a great time with Monika and his new doggy friends. It was our first time leaving him and Monika was great at accommodating a meet and greet and getting to know him at advance. We got daily photos and I knew he was in safe hands. I’d have no hesitation to book in with Monika again.”
“Jemma was amazing watching our dog Alfie for our wedding. She sent us photos and videos while we were away and kept us upto date with how he was. Highly recommended her 🩷”
“I can’t thank Danielle and Dougie enough, Roxy is a nervous dog which makes me nervous leaving her with anyone but they very quickly put our minds at ease when we met up for an introduction.Then Roxy has had a fantastic weekend with them I actually think she is missing them since she came home ! Wonderful communication and photos I would 100% recommend them to watch your dog, Roxy will definitely be going back to see them soon !!”
“Rekha was absolutely fantastic with Eric. From the moment we met her, we felt completely at ease leaving him in her care. She sent regular updates and lovely photos, which was so reassuring, and it was clear he was having the best time. From the photos it looks like Eric was taken on lots of long walks and he came back happy, relaxed, and very well looked after, honestly, I’m not sure he wanted to come home! I would 100% recommend Rekha to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and attentive dog sitter, and we will definitely be using her again.”
“Our dog Pablo had a great time with Nicole. From the moment we met, it was clear how caring and reliable she is with animals. I was kept up to date with regular updates and photos, and they had a lovely time walking and playing in the park and at home. Pablo came home happy, relaxed, and clearly very well looked after. Will definitely be booking another stay soon!”
“Judit was incredible with our dog Avie. She provided regular updates with pictures and videos and we could really tell that Avie was getting the love and attention she deserves. I would get in touch with Judit again to look after Avie anytime as I could tell she was very well looked after and cared for.”
“Anne looked after Georgie for two days. Georgie is a German Shepherd who is full of beans and can be a bit reactive but Anne dealt with all her needs amazingly well. Anne knew which dogs in the local park/green spaces would make good play mates and Georgie had a ball. Anne also played loads of games with her and the outdoor space she has is great. Georgie came home very happy and tired. I was nervous to let someone else look after Georgie but Anne was great at looking after me too! plenty of photos and reassurance to make it a really positive experience for everyone.”
“Mokey had a great stay with Kim, lots of great walks and cuddles! Kim sent us lots of updates with plenty of photos of their walks together. Kim made sure Mokey was at ease and spoiled her lots, and was a very tired dog when we picked her up. Would recommend Kim to anyone, she’s great with dogs and spends lots of time and energy making sure they’re happy!”
“Absolutely brilliant! I'm confident that my dog had a great stay with Claire. My dog is quite a sensitive soul and Claire was clearly attuned to her and kept me updated with honest feedback about how she was doing. My dog also got on really well with Claire's dog and made a new pal. I'll definitely be making more bookings in the future. Thank you Claire!”
“Tilly had a great time with Gillian, on one of the wettest days of the year she got some lovely walks and cosied at her house. Gillian is so lovely and I would highly recommend her and Tilly wants to know when she can see her again. 😊”
“Amazing......Derek goes above and beyond to make sure your dog is looked after as if it were his own. This is the second time we have used Derek and will absolutly book Alfie in again. We had regular video message to see that our boy was happy and being well looked after. His routine was followed with plenty of walks . All Alfies needs were met and he was one very happy pug when we picked him up. If i could give more than five stars i would! Thanks again Derek.”
“Jessica is amazing! I left my 12 yr old golden with her for 3 days during my wedding and I was so glad to have such peace of mind knowing he was in Jessica’s good hands. She gave me daily updates with gorgeous pics of Charlie living his best life. As well as this Jessica was so easy to get in contact with, and extremely helpful when we ended up having a 6 hour flight delay. This was Charlie’s first ever night away from a family member in 12 years and I’m sure he will miss his snuggles with her. Thank you Jessica for everything!”
“Kirsty looked after our 9month old German Shepard for 8nights. Great amazing service my dog was looked after and cared for with a lot of passion. Kirsty went above and beyond with needs that were provided. Our dog took time to settle and Kirsty had a lot of patients understanding we were more than happy with the service provided. Would highly recommend thank you Kirsty”
“Our wedding venue was not dog friendly (rude!) Our boy was soo looked after as were we The flexibility to work round me walking down the aisle and photos while our dog was adored, cuddled and looked after was soo reassuring Will absolutely book and recommend again xx”
“Evie and Ben were great with Ozzy and having him stay for the weekend, at short notice. The meet and greet beforehand was extremely helpful, as Ozzy can be quite an anxious guy, but he seemed to settle with them quickly and came home happy and tired, having enjoyed a nice long walk during the day.”
“Beau's stay with Giulia was excellent. We got a lovely welcome from her and her family. Beau was excited to meet them. Not sure if Beau wanted to leave when we picked her up. Would not hesitate to use Giulia again.”
“My first Rover booking and John could not have been more helpful. The communication was really easy. John really went out of his way to welcome my dog Scout and make her welcome in his home. John made sure there were options to ensure she was completely relaxed and that I knew she was well cared for. She was walked frequently and loved the company of his dogs. We had regular updates with photos and were delighted with her care. Would definitely recommend John.”
“Amazing! Jennifer was great at communicating from start to finish, which made everything really easy and reassuring. I felt completely comfortable leaving Beau overnight, and he was safe, well looked after and happy to gets lots of cuddles. I'd definitely book again and highly recommend Jennifer!”

Dani and Dougie were absolutely fantastic dog boarders for Alba ❤️⭐ Cannot recommend them enough!! We received daily updates and incredible pictures of Alba throughout her stay, and she has come back a very happy pup! We look forward to having Dani and Dougie care for Alba again, knowing that she will be very well looked after and have lots of walking adventures! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Just wanted to say a huge thank you to Cassandra and her family. They were honestly amazing with our dogs and made the whole thing so easy for us. Even when there were a couple of little tummy issues with one of our dogs, she handled it so calmly and kept us updated, which really put our minds at ease. It’s never easy leaving your dogs with someone else, but we felt completely comfortable knowing they were being so well looked after. We genuinely couldn’t have asked for better. Such a lovely family — would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for someone to care for their dogs.
Honey had a fantastic time with Kirsty and her family, we were able to go away for the first time leaving her with rover service s, she was well looked after and well walked, Kirsty kept in touch with photos and messages to let us know how honey was getting on. Would highly recommend.
Our golden retriever Beau stayed with Helena for 12 nights whilst we were on holiday. Helena was so accommodating with settling in days and one night before we left. Her dog is so calm and gentle and a great influence on Beau and Helena is very kind and patient with both dogs. She sent us regular updates and photos and Beau had a ball as spent time on group dog walks and explored lots of different places. He was suffering from a bit of separation anxiety before we left but, on return, have noticed he is much calmer if my husband walks away out of sight when we’re out, and Beau didn’t get upset or worried as he did before being away. He is also much calmer around other dogs we meet when out, and we believe this is due to socialising regularly with Helen’s own dog, and others on walks. Helena was great and cannot recommend her care highly enough. Will definitely book her again.
Patricia was very welcoming of Crumble. It was my first time leaving Crumble to board with a sitter. Patricia made us both feel very relaxed at the introduction session, she asked lots of questions and I felt confident that Crumble would be happy when I was away. Crumble seemed really happy and at home in the pictures and videos sent by Patricia and I was glad to hear that she seemed to be settling well. We were a little late in picking Crumble up after her stay due to train delays and Patricia was very accommodating and very happy to hold on to Crumble a little longer. Crumble was well looked after and a happy pup. I’m so pleased with how everything worked out and would definitely recommend Patricia. She was gentle and understanding and happy to listen to what Crumble needed.
