Thomas did a wonderful job watching our yellow lab while we were away for a few days. He’s very responsible and kept us updated with daily reports and photos. He was very attentive and took her on several walks during the day. I highly recommend Thomas and will definitely use him again.

Sally B. is wonderful!! She is very warm and open. Great with Jax & Ellie. She had homemade pumpkin treats for them that she made!! I can not say it enough how comfortable I felt leaving my fur babies with her. She sent lots of pictures. Both dogs can be a lot - one has an enlarged heart & is on lots of meds she handled wonderfully. The other was five weeks recovery from a knee surgery and had to be on a leash at all times outside. I will most definitely want to rebook Sally B. in the future!! Great job!! Thank you!!!

Paige did an amazing job watching our senior dog who requires multiple medications and supplements throughout the day. She kept us updated with pictures and made us feel so comfortable about being away from our 13-year-old pit mix for a few days. We will absolutely check if she is available the next time we need a sitter!

Logan did a great job! He sent us pictures while we were away of Paco to give us peace of mind. When we returned, we were able to pick up Paco at Logan's at the agreed time. Paco looked happy and healthy. We will definitely have Logan watch Paco again.

Jessica was amazing! She took great care of our Meatloaf with lots of pictures and updates, and he had a great time. Her dog, Socks, was great too and our pups were pals by the end of his stay. Jessica was super flexible with pick up and drop off times too, I'd recommend her to anyone.

Marisa and her husband took excellent care of Theo while I was out of town for a few days. She was incredibly responsive and was great at updating me while he stayed with them. Theo loved their backyard and seemed to get along great with their dog Charlie. They gave my sweet boy lots of love and attention; would recommend!

I’m always so impressed with how attentive, communicative and caring Megan is with Noodle. I really think she is sad to leave when we pick her up. There’s always a friendly dog to play with and Megan reports back on anything that comes up, big or small. Will keep boarding Noodle with her as long as she’s available! Highly recommend.

This was our first time using Rover. We selected Ellen because she had many positive reviews as well as multiple returning clients. We made the right choice selecting Ellen to watch our fur babies. She is extremely accommodating and understanding. Our 2 pups have a number of quirks, but Ellen worked with them and gave them a home away from home. She sent multiple pictures a day and some videos, along with an update of the daily activities. We will absolutely be using Ellen if we go away and need a sitter. I cannot speak any higher of Ellen. Highly recommend! Thanks again Ellen for putting our minds at ease.

Elena did a great job with my high-strung dog and my shy cat who stayed with her for almost a week. She sent me daily updates so I'd know how they were doing and had everything prepared and ready when I went to pick them up. My dog takes several oral medications, and it was nice to know that someone with Elena's professional background was taking care of my dog. She was flexible with drop off and pick up time, and set up a meet and greet. Would definitely board my girls with her again!
