Lauren and Michael has watched my chihuahua, Tobi a couple times now and every time has been consistent. He is very well taken care of and I receive updates which I love. Would absolutely recommend!

Our dog didn't even want to come home from Lydia's - she seemed right at home! Lydia sent daily pictures and had the best and fastest communication of any Rover we've ever booked. Our dog is older and has some anxiety and Lydia didn't even bat an eye at this (and if anything our dog's anxiety has improved since her stay with Lydia and her pups). Would definitely stay with Lydia again.

Erin is amazing with my two big high energy dogs! She is great at sending pictures and updates. Both my dogs came back today happy and sleepy. 😊 her two dogs could get along with anyone’s dogs too which was great for me being one of my dogs can be reactive. Nice big yard for your dogs to play in too and stay safe!

Alyson did a great job, and was very conscientious about all the details, like marking feeding bowls and food with Rascal's name, and she updated us frequently with pictures. Rascal had a great time, and came home happy and content. Thank you, Alyson, for taking such great care of her!

I truly appreciate and am very grateful that Lan was looking after my little boy! There will definitely be many many more future stays with Lan!

Our dog Garth had a great time with Sheryl. Usually, Garth struggles with us leaving him while we are away, and we had no worries while he was in Sheryl's care. She loved on him and took him for plenty of walks and trips to the park. We even got some photos and a video of their adventures. We can tell that Garth had a great time and that he was very well cared for! We would 100% recommend Sheryl and look forward to becoming repeat customers. A huge THANKS for loving and caring for Garth!

Emma was great! This was my first time using a rover and I was nervous about the idea of leaving my dog with someone I didn’t know but Emma made me feel at ease while I was on vacation. She offered to meet up beforehand to meet Ollie and provided great updates while I was away! Would love to have her watch my dog again!

Julia and Dan were amazing hosts for my dog Bailey. Drop off, pick up were super easy and convenient. All pictures Julia sent me during Bailey’s four night visit, Bailey looked so content and enjoyed being loved on by Julia and Dans kids. I enjoyed my own time away knowing Bailey was in great hands! Would use their services again and recommend them.

Susan did a wonderful job caring for our dog Rio. Rio stayed at Susan's home for a week while we were out of town. Rio was in mutiple foster homes before we adopted him and we were not sure how he would respond to being in another new home while we were on vacation. From the meet-and-greeet to allowing Rio stay with her for a half-day prior to our trip, Susan went above and beyond to ensure that we, and our dog, felt comfortable before leaving him for an extended period of time. We knew that Susan and Rio had made a positive connection when the first thing he did when he saw Susan after the meet-and-greet was to jump into her lap to request belly rubs. Susan was always responsive with her communication and ensured that we received photos, messages, and video clips each day we were on our trip. It was such a joy seeing our little guy running, playing, and hearing all about how he went on walks and got to snuggle with Susan in bed at night. It gave us so much peace of mind to know that Rio was in a safe, caring home with someone who truly loves caring for dogs.
