“Michaela was absolutely fantastic with Zephyr and it was so clear he had such a great time with her this weekend! During our stay she sent tons of pictures to keep me updated on what Zeph was up to and was very communicative throughout the whole rover process. We met ahead of time during a meet and greet where Zeph got tons of time to get to know his new aunt Michaela and vice versa and it was clear to see how great she was with handling him from the start. We will absolutely be back and are so happy to have met you! Thanks so much for taking such great care of Zephyr!”
“Moose always loves staying with Michelle and her sweet pup, Milo! He gets excited when he recognizes where we are and I always know Moose is in great hands!”

“As always, Matt is a fantastic dogsitter. He took great care of our Dalmatian and Dachshund while we were out of the country, even giving extra love and TLC to our little girl when she had some tummy upset.”

“Myrna was great with our dog Archie!! She's very experienced with watching dogs and her house seems like a great environment for dogs to have a great time. I'd highly recommend her!”

“Raye took great care of our fur babies. Even though they were happy to see us when we arrived we caouldvtell they were well taken care of. Raye sent us plenty of pictures.”


“Grateful to have found Aaren and Jordon. I felt comfortable trusting our boy with them the moment we met. We appreciated the great communication and the pictures/updates we received during Apollo‘s stay. Plus he got plenty of walking in so we know he loved that. Will be rebooking when that time comes. Thanks guys!”

“During July 4th, we planned on going out of town for the weekend. We were impressed with Julie's rover profile and decided to contact her. We were able to meet up with her twice, once so that she could see our dog, and the second time so that Mozzie could check out her place. This was the first time since adopting him over a year ago that were had ever boarded him somewhere, so we were understandably nervous about it, but Julie proved to be a great sitter. She sent us status updates and pictures while we were away, so that we could know what Mozzie was up to. When we came to pick him up, she also helped us with tips and ideas on how to help Mozzie socialize with other dogs. We could definitely tell that Mozzie was in good hands. Definitely recommended!”
“Exceptional service! Amy takes such amazing care of my two pups, I often think they are not going to want to come home. They love all the attention she gives and her big back yard.”
“Stacey was the ultimate sitter and I couldn't have asked for a better first experience with Rover! She scheduled time for our dogs to meet in a public area first followed by a tour of her home and yard where Sebastian would be staying. I received photos of how much fun he was having while on my trip, and to be honest I bet he's looking forward to his next stay, what with having a four legged buddy and a wrap-around, fenced-in yard for unlimited zoomies. I can't recommend Stacey enough and will be sticking with her whenever it suits going forward.”

“Jesse has done a wonderful job taking care of my 7 year old Samoyed! He provides good photo updates, his dogs are friendly, and drop-off/pick-up is always easy. I would highly recommend, and look forward to using his services again in the future.”

“I was able to enjoy a glorious long weekend because I knew my two dogs were happy and spoiled with Emily. Both my dogs (age 7 & 6) had NEVER been boarded or kenneled before, so I was nervous that they'd be anxious and upset, but they came home absolutely happy and contented after staying with her. She was kind enough to provide twice-daily feedback about their walks, sleep schedule, and general wellbeing, and that helped me relax and enjoy myself. My dogs sleep on the bed at home, and I chose Emily because she was going to be with them at night and because she has so many repeat customers; that tells me all I need to know! Emily is worth her weight in gold. Luka and Teddy had a safe and happy get-away of their own. Thanks so much, Emily!”


“Hillary and her husband are wonderful and trustworthy. They watched my pit bull for a week while I was on vacation across the country and we had no issues. I got pictures and updates everyday and my dog was relaxed in their home. They are great caretakers. Highly recommend and would book again.”
“Nicole and Austyn are the best!! I needed an overnight sitter super last minute and Nicole was able to help me out! I really appreciate the flexibility and will absolutely be booking with her again :)”


“Cindy, simply put, is amazing. She was attentive, kind, communicative, and full of love. My dog is normally rather anxious, and Cindy understood that and made sure my dog and I were both at ease. You can tell Cindy has a real passion for dogs, this isn’t just something she does. She has a heart and a passion for four legged babies, and I love it. I don’t have enough good things to say about, Cindy.”

“Above and beyond care for Princess! This sitter didn’t just watch our fur baby; they truly cared for her. Every detail was handled with so much compassion, and it showed in how calm and content Princess was when we returned. Our sweet Princess was treated like family. We received thoughtful updates and photos and videos that reassured us every day. Exceptional care for our sweet Princess. Reliable, kind, and very attentive. Knowing she was safe and happy gave us total peace of mind. An absolutely wonderful experience overall! She was punctual, communicative, and incredibly kind with our pet. It’s such a relief knowing your furry family member is in safe and loving hands. We will definitely book again. A wonderful experience from start to finish. Highly Recommend!!”


“Jeff was great to work with! He responded quickly to all messages and was flexible with drop off and pick up times. He provided daily photo or video updates and Carmen felt good when she got home. We will definitely request him again!”

Excellent experience leaving my two small dogs with Mich (and Milo). My dogs felt at home right away. Mich's house is beautiful and dog-friendly and has a nice fenced in back yard. Milo is super sweet and was very gentle around my small dogs. I will definitely be booking with Mich again!
Miguel and his wife took excellent care of my senior dog who needs a little bit more time and attention these days. I received updates every day and they were extremely attentive to the details that matter when caring for an elderly animal. I’m extremely grateful to have found someone who has the experience to care for our old man. We were nervous about going on a family vacation and leaving him behind, but they were very reassuring. 100% would not hesitate to use them again!

Ross and Ava are fabulous sitters! This was my dog’s first time staying with them and their sweet dog, George, and I was wondering if Reggie would want to come home with me after being taken care of so well! 😊 Ross & Ava were great with providing updates and also being mindful of the heat for walks. Finding a sitter can be such a stressful process but Ross & Ava were great with coordinating a meet and greet beforehand and putting my mind at ease. Your pet will be in great hands!
