“Im so grateful the the love and attention you give Toby, as evidenced by the regular updates, photos/videos and that he is clearly sad to leave you! Thanks for being so flexible with times and last minute requests!!”
“Best sitter in the area!! Lilly is exhausted and she misses Smokey so much! We had to move our trip dates due extreme weather in Texas and she was totally fine with it. She took great photos and videos of Lilly playing with Smokey, Laronna is the best!!!”
“Donna was a great dog sitter! She kept in touch with us when we were away and sent daily pictures of our dog. She’s easygoing, friendly, and very accommodating. She was extremely understanding when our dog experienced incontinence due to nervousness. I highly recommend her!”
“I'm very grateful Lucy was available this weekend. Maggie seemed to have had a great time and was very happy when she got home. Lucy's pick-up and drop-off was very punctual and she was available for an early drop-off when I returned home early in the day. Layla, Lucy's dog, seems to be a great playmate for Maggie. Got pictures of them playing and resting together every day. Will book again!”
“Katie did a great job! She let me know when our dog was not eating well. It was nice to be able to leave Fuzzy at a house instead of leaving her in a kennel all week. It was a very good price too!”
“Jennifer really helped us out when my daughter brought her baby to town and was worried about Dougie’s loud barking when the baby was trying to sleep. She kept him a few nights and he seems happy and well-cared for. She kept in good touch and made me feel assured that everything was fine…thanks again, Jennifer!”
“My Aussidoodle is high energy and needs room to run. I chose Kelly for the large fenced in yard, but got the bonus of her family giving so much love and great care! Kelly sent daily pictures and let me know that the family really liked my sweet boy and enjoyed cuddles with him. I couldn't have asked for a better experience for Willie.”
“Gabrielle was very responsive and flexible with the change in my schedule. She sent pictures and videos throughout his stay. She was great! My reservation was very lady minute and this was my first time so she made the experience awesome.”
“Our Darby has been well cared for each time she has stayed with Francie. When you see them greet each other there is obvious affection between them. Darby’s eagerness to go with her always eases my separation troubles, knowing she is happy.”
“Lindsey was great. My dog texted me a few times to say she was having “a good time at Lindsey’s house.” Can’t get a much better review than that! I’d definitely use Lindsey again. She was a great communicator and sent me pictures during the stay.”
“Cody had a wonderful 2 day stay with Ebony. I wasn't gone more than 15 minutes before I received the first of several pics from Ebony. Cody was running around and playing with the other dogs. He just made himself at home. Ebony was very warm and welcoming. I will definitely use her again.”
“Angela B. Was the best I could have ever had to leave my pet with. My dog Rogue had so much fun. She got a lot of attention and affection. Angela sent pictures and videos to assure me that Rogue was doing okay. I will definitely be taking her back for play dates and other vacations”
“Our pup did great at Mandi’s! I didn’t have to worry at all because she sent pictures of his day and an update of what he did. She was so sweet to send him home with a personalized bandana and a jar of homemade treats! Definitely recommend!”
“Tami is incredible!! This is my first time leaving my puppy and I was really nervous. We did a meet and greet, talked through his care and had him meet the other dogs. She took great care of Haze and sent updates throughout the weekend (which I loved). He couldn’t have been in better hands. 10/10 recommend and will be using her in the future.”

Upper Alton dog parents share their Rover experiences
We felt comfortable leaving Nahko with Danielle. She had other dogs there and he was having fun before we even left. She sent us videos over the weekend and Nahko came home exhausted from playing all weekend. We will definitely be using Danielle again ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Claire, I thank you for the love you gave my baby Bella! I was nervous using a new sitter last minute but Claire was so welcoming and loving to myself and Bella. She sent updates with pictures and took Bella for a pup cup (after asking before hand which I loved even more)! They went to the park for a walk and when I picked my baby up she was happy which is what put me even more at ease. Thank you Claire and you'll be seeing us soon!
