“Josh and Andres were so wonderful with our dog Roxy! This was her first time boarding with people who weren’t family and she immediately felt at ease. They welcomed her just like family, took great care of her. We loved getting the videos and pictures and my daughter loved seeing Roxy having such a great time with her new friends. After a stressful time trying to find a solution so we could go on vacation for a week. The Puppy Palace was exactly what we were looking for. Thank you for making this such a simple, enjoyable and easy process!”
“We were so fortunate to have Sharon watch over our dog, Beanie for a third time! Beanie stayed with Sharon for over a week while we traveled overseas. Sharon provided us with a peace of mind with how loving she has always been towards her, following her care instructions and also with how communicative she was whenever we reached out. It is evident that Sharon has had a lot of experience with dogs and she will take care of your baby as she does her own, four dogs! Sharon, thank you for watching over our baby. We were able to fully enjoy our trip knowing she was with you!”
“Pamela is awesome! My pup and I are new to Rover, so we did an introduction visit before our scheduled booking and he enjoyed his visit during the holiday weekend. Pamela checked in and sent updates throughout the booking. I highly recommend you book with Pamela if you have the opportunity.”
“Cal & Kelly were wonderful! They sent multiple photos and videos daily. This was our first time leaving our dog alone while we went on vacation but we felt very comfortable with him in their hands. Our dog had an especially great time playing with Lilo and Nero! We look forward to keeping our pup there again soon.”
“This is the third time we’ve had Sophia watch Shiloh, and I can guarantee it won’t be the last. She provided Shiloh with excellent care, and gave frequent updates! It was great to know that Shiloh was in good hands!”
“Our little Bean came back to us healthy & happy! Ivan gave us a tour of his home where Bean would be, including a great backyard for her to run around. He followed Bean's care instructions & kept us updated with photos as we were out of the country. We would definitely ask him to be our dogsitter again. Thank you Ivan.”
“Maria has been wonderful with Ruby, our 1yo 70-lb rescue mutt. Ruby is always super excited to go there, for daycare or for boarding too, and wags her tail like crazy as we approach the front door. Maria is really affectionate and gives the dogs personalized attention, does a lot of work on basic behavior training, and her own dog has been a great role model! Highly recommended.”
“Julijai kept us updated with photos and videos of how our dog was doing. He had a great time playing in the backyard and hanging out on the couch. Would absolutely book again.”
“Absolutely wonderful sitters! Great communication with us. They sent me photos of Theo during the week I was away and Theo returned home happy! They treated him like family! Thank you Bob and Pam!”
“Poh Huey is absolutely amazing. She took great care of our dog Belle recently when we were out of town. She was responsive, courteous, and very professional. Huey was genuinely attentive to Belle, which was greatly appreciated. She provides video/photo updates. Her fenced backyard with artificial turf provides a safety and clean playground for dogs. Her two dogs are super friendly. Huey is the best!!”
“Poppy stayed with Jeannie for 3 days this time and had a super time! Jeannie is naturally tuned into Poppy's moods and gives equal time to snuggles and play. Thank you, Jeannie, for being such a loving caregiver for to my pup.”
“My 4 month old Cavapoo was well cared for. All routines and care plan discussed were followed and he got lots of love, play and walks as appropriate. I was consistently updated about his wellbeing and schedule and had no worries at all. Highly recommend Kristy for dog sitting and boarding my your little one in her home. Will definitely rebook! Thank you so much.”
“Addy is always so attentive to my little guys needs and makes sure he gets all the attention, care and exercise he needs. Addy is quick to respond to messages and sends pictures and updates of how my guy is doing during overnight stays. I especially appreciate her patience with my dogs particular desire to play unlimited fetch 😆”
“Marlin was awesome while watching my cat Buckeye. She really put me at ease about leaving her with a sitter for the first time. Marlin was quick to ask questions and respond when needed, even provided me updates on how my cat was doing. I would absolutely recommend Marlin as a sitter to anyone in need and will be booking again in the future. Thanks Marlin!”
“I am so happy we found Jenny to take care of Pippi for a few days. She was treated like family and had a blast running and playing with the other happy dogs. She’ll be back!”
“Sarah is incredible, and our dog adores her (and her cold tile kitchen floor after the walks they take!). Thank you for once again providing such great care for our big guy. I highly recommend her services!”
“Andrea is the perfect sitter! I appreciated her flexibility with drop off and pick up times and her very calm, personable and welcoming demeanor. Sarge loved being at her house and was already exploring the house by the time I left. Andrea made sure he had all the comforts of home and even got him to sleep in a dog bed that she provided. When I picked him up, he was very content and in no hurry to go home. I have already booked another stay, as I know Sarge will be in good care with Andrea.”

“Catherine just completed her first booking with us for our 3 elderly cats -- and she did a great job! The cats were clearly well-tended, she took the time to send photos and reassure us pet parents, and she gave us updates as the several days went on. One of the cats needs daily medicine, and Catherine found a new way to encourage Mischa the cat to gobble down the mashed pill. Thanks! She also accepted this assignment with very little lead time -- thank you, Cathy!”
“Leah was the the perfect sitter. I have a very skittish cat who does not come out when strangers are in the house, but Leah still sent pictures of her food bowls and made sure to check the house for anything amiss each drop in visit. She also brought my garbage cans and mail in, which I really appreciated. I will definitely be calling Leah again for our next trip.”
“Rover review She took great care of Hazy while I was away. He unfortunately developed vomiting and diarrhea during my trip, so she had to clean up after him daily and keep a close eye on him. It may have been anxiety- but nonetheless-She even brought a probiotic from home for him, which I really appreciated. I ended up adding three extra visits so she could continue monitoring him, and she was reliable and communicative throughout. I really appreciated her taking on the extra work while Hazy wasn’t feeling well.”
“Jeannine is extremely dependable and thorough with each visit. She provided lots of photos and information about how our pet was doing. Very pleased with our first Rover experience and would highly recommend Jeannine/Rover.com.”
“Great communicator and totally understands the assignment. I felt very comfortable knowing that Alissa was handling things with my two cats while was away. She's clearly an animal person.”
“Excellent service! She came over prior to our first visit to see where everything was. Then gave daily updates and cute pics through the app. Even let us know our cranky cat was not happy and our goofy cat wanted to play! Highly recommend.”
“Yuandi was an absolute wonderful sitter for my kitty cat. Very mellow and chill. She kept Impeccable notes! I have most stuff listed on Rover but she paid attention to every little detail I mentioned during walk through. She was prompt, very communicative and sent lots of pictures. My cat’s picky but finally warmed up and cuddled on Yuandi’s lap like old friends. Will be booking her again!”
“Jeannie was fantastic! She took excellent care of our cat, provided updates on how he was doing and lots of pictures of when they were together. I was a bit leery of using Rover following a terrible experience a friend had, but Jeannie was professional, came when she said she would, and was all around terrific. I would 100% recommend her services to anyone who needs an amazing pet sitter. Denali (and I) give two paws (thumbs) up. Thank you Jeannie ! 😻 😊”
“Sarah was amazing with Miso! Dropped by every day and gave my sweet girl all the attention she deserved. She also took some amazing pictures of her to send to me! Will definitely book again next time I’m out of town. Thanks Sarah 🫶🏽”
“Jasmine took great care of our cats as always! She ensures they’re well looked after while we are out of town and takes great care of our house too. The litter boxes, dishes, and house is always spotless. Much appreciated!”
“Delany is responsible, attentive, and communicative. She cared for our two cats for an entire week, and we felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. She was also patient and thoughtful when an urgent issue came up and we couldn’t be reached right away. We truly appreciate her and would absolutely recommend her.”
“Denise took great care of my cat, Socks! She made sure to take some time to play with him and give him his favorite treats and also went above and beyond to clean up a mess he made. Thanks Denise!”
“Ariana was a wonderful cat sitter. She watched our two cats during the first time we were away from them, and they were very well taken care of. She followed our instructions and preferences and sent great updates and pictures.”
“Anton was great with our cat Benji! Very responsive, attentive, and went the extra mile when helpful (like cleaning whole litter box instead of scooping when dirty or having a late night visit when his schedule changed). We’ll book with him again. :)”
“Jodi has been there for us time and again and has always done an exemplary job. We have one "escape artist" cat but she's never managed to get out with Jodi on the job!”
“Teffni’s been a responsible and caring sitter throughout the 3 weeks stint with our cat. She’s punctual, responsive and meticulously handled the duties of looking after our cat well. Will definitely consider her for future sitting needs and recommend her services to anyone.”
“Tyasia was absolutely amazing!!! My baby Oreo absolutely adored her. She was very communicative and sent lots of pictures. She also played with her and made sure she got love and cuddles. I would definitely trust her with my cat again. Thank you again so much Tyasia, you made me feel a little less anxious while on vacation 🥰”

“Joe came home happy and exhausted (in a good way!) from his daycare stay. Josh and Andres communicated often and were responsive throughout Joe’s stay. We’re so glad to find trustworthy people so close to our home to look after Joe. Highly recommended.”
“My pup Kodi goes to doggy daycare with Ming and his team. He runs to their door every morning, wagging his tail waiting to go in. I get daily updates with photos and/or texts, and so get to see how much fun he is having while I am at work. The house is a little doggy retreat, with lots of places for pups to rest and a nice backyard to play in. Kodi has a great time and comes home tired from a fun filled day.”
“Wow - Maria is sooo understanding! The clocks at work were not changed for daylight savings, so I was an hour late for an already late pick up. Maria was very kind and understanding. It really makes me feel great to know they are always looking out for Sparky, and now for me as well!”
“Sharon took great care of my dog, Beanie! We have been with Sharon for the past 3 years now and she has been awesome with day care and overnight care. Thank you Sharon!!”
“Israel took such great care of my puppy! They sent plenty of pictures and updates throughout the day, which gave me so much peace of mind. They kept me informed about how he was doing, responded quickly to my messages, and were incredibly friendly. It was clear that my puppy was happy and well cared for. I would absolutely book with Israel again and highly recommend them!”
“Mei regularly cares for my older dog Bear and she does a fantastic job. She takes him on walks and I feel confident that he will have a wonderful day in her care. I highly recommend Mei!”
“Camden came home and within 15 minutes he was asleep. So much playing and fun! Francine takes care of dogs like she does her own. We are always confident Camden will be happy with Francine. ❤️”
“Maria was so great with our rescue pup! We were nervous to leave our pup with a new sitter but she kept us up to date all day. Maris was a strong communicator and very thoughtful. Would recommend her if you need a dog sitter who really cares about dogs and cats and their well being!”
About: I grew up around dogs my whole life. Always loved them and loved taking care of them. From puppies to brown dogs, i’ve seen it all. I work and do school remote from home so pet care fits perfect. Taking care of dogs will get me more active and I love a good walk or jog. I treat each pet as if they are my own. With the same love and care I give my dog. Once they come to me they are home.
“Toby was in heaven everyday. He came home walking on sunshine everyday. Minelis was so thoughtful and share such kind thoughts. Toby was smiling in all the photos she sent. So happy to have Minelis. Toby has a second home!”
“Huey took such great care of my pupper Winky, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Winky can be super shy at first, so I always get nervous leaving him with someone new, but he got comfortable with Huey so quickly it was amazing! She has two super friendly dogs of her own(a little bichon and a corgi), and they got along so well with Winky which is awesome. She also sent me updates and photos during the stay and it looked like he was completely relaxed and having the best time. I also added on grooming during his stay, since she’s also a home based groomer and did such an amazing job(she told me she has 20 years of grooming experience!!) Winky came home looking so clean and adorable with the cutest haircut! You can really tell she has a ton of experience with dogs and genuinely cares about them. I’d absolutely book with Huey again and would recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, experienced, and caring for their pup!”
“Maria was amazing with my anxious dog! My pup has never been to daycare or boarding before and Maria was very patient and communicative with me and my pup—I received photos and updates throughout the whole day. She clearly knows dogs well and is able to expertly navigate dogs with all different needs. I will definitely book with Maria again!”
“We had such a great experience with this daycare! They were absolutely amazing—so kind, attentive, and clearly loves what they do. Saint had the best time and really bonded with their dog, Kai. They went on walks, played together, and even had time to rest and nap, which I really appreciated. I felt completely at ease knowing Saint was in such good hands. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!”
“Susan took great care of my pup, Gus! She makes sure to understand your pets needs ahead of time so she can deliver the best care. She’s very communicative and provided me with plenty of updates and photos. Highly recommended!”
“Thanks to Jeannie, Poppy had the perfect day of nonstop fun and lots of affection. Poppy took to Jeannie right away and was very comfortable in her home and spacious backyard. When I came to pick her up at the end of the day she proudly showed me the toys she had played with and ran laps around the yard. Jeannie sent me great photos of Poppy and reassuring messages throughout the day. Can’t wait to bring Pops back for a return visit!”
About: From doing grooming and farm chores at a horse rescue and watching neighborhood dogs to raising my own terrier, I’ve gained experience with a wide variety of different breeds, sizes, ages and species. Need someone to look after your dog or farmsit while you’re away? Got an exotic pet, goat, sheep, horse or dog you need a sitter for? No problem! I delight in caring for animals of all shapes and sizes. Almost all species and breeds are welcome here. I can also come to your farm or stable for horses and livestock animals. Note that I cannot take cats due to cat allergies. I’m currently working part time, so I will have plenty of time to spend with your pets! Dogs will be walked daily and will have free access to a large, fully fenced in yard. I can come to your house for any farm animals or exotics. I have a large fenced yard, plenty of pet toys and live in a suburban neighborhood filled with plenty of good parks to go for walks in. Any instructions you give as an owner will be respected and followed. Additionally, I am a private service for boarding! If you book me for your pets, then they will be guaranteed to be the only animals staying with me at the time. If I’m caring for horses or other farm animals, then I will come to your place rather than take them home. Horses will be groomed everyday as well as exercised according to your specifications.
About: 15 years of own pet care experience. I have cared for pets and volunteered on animal shelters before. I own a frenchie boy who is very calm , never barks and loves to eat. If needed on a case by case basis I can arrange to have your baby in my care alone :) Loved animals since little. I will love your pet like its my own. I’m a civil engineer with a frenchie pup working from home! Dog-walking or pet sitting will be a smooth addition to my daily routine that your pup and I will enjoy! Meet and greets needed for dog sitting. Will send you photos or text to let you know how your pet is doing! Please let me know of any fears your pup has. I typically let my dog sleep my couch or bed but will ask for permission first.

So glad to have found you, Wydia. Thank you!”

He had such a great time and was taken such good care that I wasn’t sure he would want to come back (lol!). Marylee was also very accommodating and flexible as there was an unexpected schedule change we needed to make right before our date. She was very quick to respond which also made me feel confident.

He was exhausted when he came back and slept for a whole day when he came back (lol!)”
