“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!!”
“Sophia was the ultimate pet boarding professional. Within a day, she understood our unusual dogs, recognizing how sweet they are. Knowing our little girl is an escape artist, she took great care to ensure her safety. Immediately, our girl trusted Sophia and followed her everywhere she could in the house. Sophia also understood our older boy, and he was calm and content when we picked him up at the end of the weeklong visit. I was impressed by Sophia's professionalism and by how much she cared about the well-being of our dogs. When the temps dropped lower than we anticipated, Sophia pulled out her own spare dog jacket to make sure our pups stayed warm enough on their daily walks. Thank you so much for taking such great care of our pups, Sophia!”
“We couldn't have asked for a better experience! Leaving Violet with someone new is never easy because she's a sweet girl with a few quirks. She loves long walks, naps, sunshine, and belly rubs. She also has a strong prey drive (especially for bunnies!), so we really appreciate sitters who pay attention to the details. From the moment we met, we knew Violet was in great hands. Our sitter took the time to understand her routine, made sure she got plenty of walks and sniffs, and gave her all the love and attention she thrives on. We received regular updates and photos that gave us complete peace of mind, and it was obvious Violet felt comfortable, relaxed, and cared for throughout her stay. When we picked her up, she was happy, well cared for, and settled right back into life at home, which is always the best sign that she had a wonderful boarding experience. We're incredibly grateful for the care and attention Violet received and are already booked again for an upcoming trip. If you're looking for someone who will treat your dog like family, we highly recommend them!”
“Piero took great care of our two dogs during our two-week vacation! He provided photo and video updates and was flexible with pickup and drop-off times. Both dogs were happy and healthy at the end of their stay. We’d happily leave them with Piero again in the future!”
“Marylee (and her husband) were amazing!! I pick Rover people based on if I would want to stay with them lol!! At the meet and greet she was very thorough with her questions about the cat and dog and making sure all their needs were met. It felt like she has an understanding about the types of issues that could arise and how to deal with them. Very organized. Very attentive, warm loving people. I was sent updates and photos throughout my time away. Her yard is crazy big and beautiful and fenced in. My dog LOVED it! She was able to accommodate my daughter’s cat at the same time last minute. I felt so secure knowing they were being well taken care of while I was gone. Cat had her little cat tower and pictures of the cat by the glass door able to look outside and see everything. I am done searching for Rover people… will definitely use Marylee again. Excellent!!”
“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.”
“My dog Tako was extremely well taken care of and I got frequent updates. Shanilka was very easy to communicate with and she was very flexible as my travel plans changed due to the weather. I will absolutely be using her again if I ever need!”
“Timmy came home happy! Chris was awesome. He followed all of our guidance and pampered Timmy too! Sent lots of great photos and videos and was very responsive to our needs.”
“Amazing!!! Samantha and her family watched our corgi, Momo, for two whole weeks. We got daily pictures and videos and updates, which we LOVED. She took great care of him and treated him like her own <3 He really fell in love with them (and with Winston, their friendly family dog). I’m not sure Momo wanted to come home hahaha. Best experience I could’ve asked for!”
“My 2 pups had a great boarding experience. I was updated regularly with messages and pictures. They came back happy and healthy. I hope to be able to book with you again for future stays!”
“FANTASTIC EXPERIENCE! Highly recommend! We chose Sriju, in part, based on other excellent reviews...and she did not disappoint! From our first communications and introductory meeting before we left our 11mo Goldendoodle with her, Sriju was welcoming, gentle, extremely responsive, organized, completely accommodating, and loving. This was our first time leaving Benny with someone else (we were away six days) so we were already a bit on edge; Sriju put us at ease immediately. Everyday while we were gone Sriju sent texts and pictures (usually once in AM and once in PM). She took Benny on numerous walks throughout the day as well as to the dog park. She adjusted to his needs, not the other way around, and provided an atmosphere that made Benny completely comfortable, as evidenced by his affection toward her when it was time to pick him up upon our return. We highly recommend Sriju and can't thank her enough for making our Benny feel at home while we were away...and giving us the peace of mind we needed to truly enjoy our trip. THANK YOU, Sriju!”
“Sonia was fantastic with Murray and was extremely warm and understanding throughout his stay. She also sent the best dog-sitting pictures of anyone we've booked with and it shows how much she cares.”
“Cal & Kelly took great care of my senior pup, Amber Louise, for nearly 3 weeks. I received daily pictures and updates on how Amber was doing and this gave me peace of mind while I was away. Cal was quick to respond to any questions I had and I could tell Amber was well taken care of from the pictures and when I picked her up. Thank you Cal & Kelly for taking such good care of my sweet and precious girl.”
“Carrie and John were great! They loved on our doodle and he felt right at home! Our pup got along great with Carrie and John’s doodle, Fozzie! Highly recommend using this awesome caring family!”
“My Golden had a wonderful 2 week stay with Karen. She sent videos and pictures everyday. Her whole family is so sweet and she has a beautiful property! Will definitely use her in the future.”
“Auana was excellent! My puppy was in great hands, she is super responsive and gave me updates throughout my dog’s stay with her. Her willingness to follow my dog’s care plan was extra comforting. Will be booking her again!”
“My dog Mochiko and I can sometimes have mutual separation anxiety, but both of us can always count on Josh and Andres to make boarding a stress free and easy experience! They provide frequent updates (with photos!) and are very quick to communicate, and Mochiko clearly has such a good time playing with their pack of friendly pups! Will definitely be trusting them with Mochiko's care if I need to leave town again!”
“Bryn took such wonderful care of Leo over the weekend—we couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Leo had an amazing time with her and absolutely loved spending time with her dog, Kepler. It was clear he felt comfortable, happy, and well cared for the entire time. In fact, Leo enjoyed his stay so much that he didn’t even want to come back home! That says everything about how great Bryn is. If there were more than 5 stars, we would gladly give them to her. We will 100% be booking with Bryn again in the future. She is truly the best on the entire Rover website!”
“Evvery is Kingsley's favorite person and he always enjoys his stays with her! She's absolutely the best and gives us so much peace of mind while we're gone - I know she knows how to handle Kingsley really well and he just loves walking around her neighborhood so much. Another 5 star stay! Thanks so much for everything Evvery! :)”

“Jeannie was very attentive with Kasey, and went above and beyond in keeping the bowls and feeding area clean. She sends plenty of photos, which I appreciate, and was clearly very invested in being fully prepared for any extenuating circumstances. I'd recommend Jeannie to look after your pets.”
“We’ve booked Alex to watch our senior cat 3 times, and can’t recommend her enough. She’s very responsive and takes excellent care of our pet while we’re away. We will continue use her.”
About: My experience with cats includes both ownership and fostering. I cared for a foster cat with FeLV and have experience administering medication, maintaining litter boxes, monitoring behavior, and providing daily care. I understand that every cat has different comfort levels and preferences, and I take the time to ensure they feel secure and relaxed while maintaining their usual routine.
“Julia is the best! Thanks so much for taking care of our cat while we had our wedding. Even extended it to the night before last minute and she was able to start the visit early.”
“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.”
“Cathy does a terrific job of taking care of our three elderly cats. In addition to their feeding, cleanup and play time, she talks with us about new ideas for getting medicine into Mischa, encouraging the three cats to eat, and managing the work that comes with keeping a three cat house fresh and tidy! She is timely, reliable and genuine! Thanks so much, Cathy!”
“She took care of my Kitties last minute, and one of them I adopted a week ago and they weren't quite on hospitable terms yet. She allowed them to interact gently while being ready to separate in case of throwing paws. She also followed special feeding directions for my elderly cat who needs stuff mixed in and her pate in an extra soupy mash.”
About: I've taken care of cats for over 20 years. My wife and I run a small airport where we care for over 15 feral cats. We love all of them and they all have names and we take them to the vet when they need it. I keep my Rover clients at a different property.
“Jeannine was wonderful with our cat while we were away for 10 days! She was prompt and reliable with visits and updates and kept us updated. It was wonderful to be able to relax on our vacation knowing she was in such good hands. We would definitely book Jeannine again for future trips! Thank you again!”
About: I have experience caring for cats in both my own home and for friends, neighbors, and family members. I’m comfortable with little box maintenance, playing with cats, and giving medication when needed. As a cat owner myself I understand the importance of patience, affection, and treating every cat like family.
“Hazel has been great help for our busy family and taking care of Max our fur baby. Super punctual and flexible and communicative. Max sure enjoys his walks with her. Thank you Hazel 🙏🏻”
“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.”
“Melissa has once again taken great care of our pets. We never worried about them once. Her daily reports and pics are fun! Our flight was delayed and she was able to accommodate us. Can’t say enough about the great care she provides.”
“I'm so grateful to Ruby. I was out of town for an extended leave and started missing my cat almost immediately. Ruby sent pictures and little updates after every visit, and I felt so much peace of mind and ease knowing that my cat has someone caring for him when I have to be away. Ruby is very communicative and wonderful to work with.”
About: My family and I have always had cats and dogs growing up. Our pets are family! As a mom to 2 young kids, I am unable to put the time and care into a doggie of my own … so I need YOURS to love up on! I am a preschool teacher and off for the summer so I am available and flexible! Other than dropping/picking up my kids from camp, I’m free! I have a fantastic path right behind my house that I always walked / would walk my dogs, if your baby stays with me. I am also happy to visit your pup(s) at their home and have them show me around their neighborhood! Anything to make your doggo happy, is what I want :)

Perfect for high energy dogs - Sunshine
“Joshua and his girlfriend were so accommodating with my last minute (day before) request. My dog was calm and content when I picked him up both days- a great indicator to me that he had an stress-free time with Joshua. Definitely recommend and would use his services again!”
“Waffles looks like he had a great time, and Jeannie’s personality and thoughtful questions left me fully confident that my boy was in good hands. Highly recommend!”
“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!”
About: Ive been pet sitting for friends for about 10 years and I’m the trusted pet sitter at my job. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and all ages. I am able to give meds and cater to seniors. I’m currently working part time at a barn and live on the property so I’ll always be around. Typically I can board most days during the week including weekends. Your dog will be cared for as if it were my own, I feed twice a day and I have plenty of toys for play time. I have access to a large backyard or I can take them for a walk on the farm.
“Ebot responded to my booking request quickly & was also very polite with his communications. Jäger didn’t finish his two days booked with him. I don’t think it was a great fit for Jäger & think ebot would do best caring for dogs who don’t mind being crated and are smaller in size who also don’t mind being left. Apparently my dog displayed anxious behaviors he has never displayed before in his 4 years of rover daycares but I think it just wasn’t the best fit. Love ebot’s energy & personality though & wish him the best of luck! I think he’ll do great with other pups”
About: I love dogs and they seem to love me...cats, too! I am currently looking for pet sitting clients, in my home or the client's home. I live on a peaceful, private and safe property, bordered by the woods and a lake in Brookeville. I have cared for my own pets for most of my life and have also worked as a dog walker and dog hander at a dog daycare center. I have also fostered and rescued dogs and cats. I have an extensive background in unrelated fields, such as music, graphics/video, real estate, property management and working as a home healthcare aide. Please feel free to ask any questions that you may have. Best ~ Mark I can always put my pet clients and visitors first. Outside of working with animals, I work on music, home renovations, read, etc. My home is a large garage that I converted into a guest house with a recording studio. The house where I have pet guests is a private home near the woods. I have over 2 acres where I can walk dogs, plus 80 acres of woods behind the house for hikes. I have security cameras at the property. There is only one neighbor nearby and it is a very quiet and peaceful area. I am completely trustworthy as far as caring for client's pets. I have worked as a guitar teacher and pet handler, various other jobs that required background checks.
“Need a compassionate sitter? Check! Need someone who will tire your high energy dogs out? Check! Want a sitter who follows all your instructions to a T? Check Check Check! Took care of my 3 shepherds with excellent care, even my shepherd with degenerative myelopathy (who is a picky princess) had a happy time with him. Will use him again!”
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.
“Ranger had his First time DayCare with Josh and Andres! He had a Great Time playing with his Friends and we enjoyed the photos sent! We Look Forward to More Daycare with Josh and Andres!”
“Neelo was fantastic with our pup. She was very accommodating and willing to follow the schedule we use for our young puppy. She also took the best pictures of him. Neelo watched him two days in a row and he went from being a little nervous (which is totally normal) to being so excited to see her by day two. Thanks for taking such good care of our little guy!”
About: I’ve had dogs since I was young. I grew up on a farm with lots of animals and have trained many puppies and older dogs alike. All my dogs have been rescues so I’m very familiar with dogs that have come from bad situations and dogs that are misunderstood because of their breeds. I’ve always had dogs of different sizes, breeds and temperaments. I’m always the first person my friends and family go to when they need some extra help with t dogs or just need someone to watch them while on vacation. I live on 10 acres which is perfect for those dogs that love off leash time but don’t get a lot, I love exploring new areas and have assisted in training dogs while in the military. I’m currently working part time and looking for a way to get out of the house more often and help people with their pets needs. As a dog and cat owner I know how important exercise is and that some people just don’t have the time to take their dogs on proper walks while they are at work. I live on ten acres and can offer a safe environment for dogs to safely play in, I have extra long leads so if your pup isn’t quite off leash trained they can still have an amazing experience with the long leads and all the land. I always follow whatever instructions are left for me as I know how important routines can be for a pet!
About: I've been pet sitting for neighbors, friends and family since I was 10. I'm very good with animals. When I’m boarding, I try to prioritize your dog or cats wants and/or needs over mine. And try to make it seem like a vacation for them. I live with my father, and my brothers and sisters. We all love animals but don’t have any of our own. So your furry friend is getting the most attention and affection from me and everyone else in the house. I have a backyard to play in (unfortunately not fenced in) and very long walking path near my house. Live right by a creek with paths all around. Dogs love it. Weather I'm taking care of your dog at my house or at yours, he or she has my full undevided attention.
“Elisel was great! She accommodated a last minute request and our specific timing which was a life saver during our moving day. The peace of mind that she gave with the updates was worth it. Would use her again!”
“My wife and I were worried about our newly adopted rescue dog and how he'd react to different surroundings, people, and other dogs. Joy and Rodney made him feel right at home and sent a bunch of pictures showing him interacting with their dogs and other daycare pups. They made us feel comfortable too knowing our baby was in good hands. I highly recommend Joy and Rodney and I know we'll be booking with them again.”
“Shadid is amazing! It was my first time using Rover and I was nervous about leaving my puppy, Rudy, with someone else. From the moment we met Shadid, she was great with Rudy. I was concerned about Rudy getting anxious and being difficult to manage. I realized quickly that I had nothing to worry about with Shadid. Rudy was immediately comfortable with her. I don’t think he even noticed me leave because he was so excited to hang out with Shadid & Pebbles all day. Throughout the day, I received pictures of Rudy at the park and playing. It felt great knowing that Rudy was in good hands and having an amazing day. When I picked Rudy up, he was sad to leave! Rudy can be challenging and usually takes a while to warm up to people, so I was extremely impressed by Shadid’s ability to care for dogs. I would absolutely be comfortable leaving Rudy with Shadid again and am so grateful that I found her. If you love your dog and don’t know which sitter will be best, contact Shadid!! Your dog will have the best day and you’ll feel great knowing he/she is in good hands! From a professional standpoint, Shadid is excellent. I’m in medical school and was taking an exam during Rudy’s stay, so it was important to me that the sitter be professional. Shadid was perfect. She responds quickly and is completely reliable. I strongly recommend her!”
“Jemar was amazing with Levi! We needed an emergency sitter for our mini doodle and Jemar came to the rescue. He took her for walks, gave her lots of attention, and made sure she felt safe and happy the whole time. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and have always been actively involved in caring for them. I currently have three dogs of my own that I regularly walk, bathe, play with, and care for daily. I have experience with both puppies and senior dogs, and I’m comfortable working with a variety of breeds, including bulldogs and pit bulls. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely love making dogs feel safe, happy, and cared for. I am a college student who just got back from college so I have an extremely flexible schedule. I am willing to fit to your needs for your fur baby. At my clients home I will play with the dog as advised. If there is a fenced yard I will spend the day outside playing with the dog. If there is no fence we will go on walks and relax within the home.
“Julia did a great job with Oakley! She took for a nice long walks and he seemed super happy in the pictures she shared. She had good communication and I would definitely used her again.”
About: As an experienced pet sitter and cat owner, I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. By having my own pet I understand the need for patience, attention to detail, and maintaining routines. I provide compassionate care tailored to each pets needs and personality, treating every animal as if they were part of my own family. Im am currently working part time and at most work three times a week. This allows me to have a lot of availability to care for your animals! I care for pets in clients homes by following their normal routines to help pets feel safe and comfortable. I also give regular updates to owners and make sure the pets get plenty of love when their owners are away.
“Leah has been amazing! She is very understanding of Dolly's needs and helps us implement her current training on her walks. She is extremely knowledgeable and I look forward to continue working with her. 😊”

“By far the best pet sitter we have ever had. Always on time , always friendly! Also we are in constant communication which is extremely helpful considering schedule changes happen. I love the reports of my pets being goofy and loving her visits. My pets love her visits so very much! My dogs attitude has improved very much since we have had her in our lives. And my life has been more relaxed knowing I have a dependable wonderful person looking after my pets and entering my home with no worries or stress as to what happens when I am not around. She is all around amazing!”
“Gabi did great with my two dogs! They both looked very happy in the photos she provided. I appreciated the detailed report cards and care she showed towards our pets. We would love to hire her again and would recommend her to anyone looking for pet care.”
About: Hi! My name is Shannon and I have been taking care of dogs since I was ten years old, but have been a dog owner my whole life. I have experience with both puppies and senior dogs. In addition I have cared for senior dogs with extensive medical conditions, so I am very comfortable providing medication according to your and your dogs schedule. I have two German shorthaired pointers of my own, so I am very comfortable providing comfortable around both large and high energy dogs in addition to all other size dogs with different energy levels! I am home for the summer with lots of free time to be dedicated to your pets! I am consistently available during weekdays to help you and your pet have a schedule that meets your needs! I understand that your dog is an extension of both yourself and your family! I will treat your dog with the utmost respect, care and love they deserve. I do not think having a pet sitter should be a stressful situation for you, I hope to provide peace of mind to you while you are away from your pet! I love sending frequent updates and pictures so you can still be in touch with your dog! When with your pets, they will have my undivided attention and care!
About: I don't have any pets of my own at the moment, so I get my daily dose of pet cuddles by caring for my friends' pets, from an energetic 6 month old puppy to senior dogs and cats. I've always been a cat person and proudly consider myself a bit of a cat lady, but I genuinely love animals of all kinds. In college, I even brought my betta fish home with me every weekend to make sure he was well cared for. I know every pet has their own personality and routine, and I enjoy making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I work from home, so it's easy for me to fit pet visits into my day. Spending time with with a cuddly friend would be one of my favorite parts of the week! I also work a part time job some evenings, but with advance notice I'm flexible and happy to accommodate your pet's schedule whenever possible. I know pets thrive on routine, so I'll do my best to keep things the way they're used to. From special feeding routines to favorite toys and cuddle time, I'll treat your pet with the same care and attention I'd want for my own.

About: Hi! I’m Kelsey, and caring for animals has always been something that comes really naturally to me. I recently adopted my cat, Louis, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pet. I work full-time in behavioral health, so I bring a lot of patience, attentiveness, and calm energy into how I care for animals—especially those who may be a little anxious or need extra reassurance. I’m available for drop-ins and walks, with extra flexibility on Tuesdays and Fridays when I work from home. I’m happy to follow detailed routines, send regular updates, and make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Whether your pet needs playtime, a walk, or just some company, I’d love to help! Pet care fits really naturally into my weekly routine. I work full-time during the day, but I’m available for morning, evening, and weekend visits, with extra flexibility on Tuesdays and Fridays when I work from home. I try to keep my schedule balanced so I can be fully present with each pet, and not feel rushed between visits. I’m happy to stick to consistent routines, and I’ll always do my best to accommodate specific timing needs when I can. I’m especially a good fit for pets who benefit from a calm, steady presence or a little extra patience. I care for every pet the way I’d want someone to care for mine, with patience, attention, and a really calm energy. I recently adopted my cat, Louisville aka Louis, so I know how important it is to trust the person coming into your space. In your home, I’m very respectful of routines and will follow instructions closely to keep things consistent and low-stress. I take my time building trust, especially with shy or anxious pets (and cats who like to take their time warming up). I’m mindful about safety - secure doors, leashes, clean spaces, and making sure your pet is always comfortable. I’ll also send thoughtful updates and photos so you feel connected and at ease while you’re away. Whether your pet wants playtime, a walk, or just a cozy presence nearby, I’m happy to meet them where they are.
About: Growing up, I have had several and feel very comfortable with most breeds and their distinctive traits. I am a believer that pets are just like children. They needs lots of love, attention and constant care. Because of my experience, I am comfortable walking, feeding, playing and caring for your dog. Our schedule is very flexible so it's easy for us to be there for your dog. We go on several walks a day, giving them a chance to go potty and enjoy playing with them to make sure they feel loved and secure while they're with us. Because we live on a 600 acre property, safety is our top priority. When we are taking walks with your dog, we will take every precaution necessary to ensure your dog is safe. You can bring your dog's favorite toys or blankets, however we have everything your dog would need to feel at home with us. I wash everything after each visit to make sure all of our things are clean for the next fur baby. We have food and water bowls, toys, beds, blankets, crates and even leashes. We want to make it as convenient as possible for you while ensuring your dog is comfortable with us.

“Nicole was great! We'll definitely use her again. Our big boy loved her and we loved how she gave him a good long walk everyday while we were on vacation. My parents loved her too - she was reliable and very nice.”
“Jillian is awesome. My dog loves her and she is wonderful with him. He is a big high energy guy and she walked him and spent good time getting him tired out and happy. We used her while we were on vacation but liked her so much decided to use her weekly to walk him.”

“We couldn't have asked for a better experience! Leaving Violet with someone new is never easy because she's a sweet girl with a few quirks. She loves long walks, naps, sunshine, and belly rubs. She also has a strong prey drive (especially for bunnies!), so we really appreciate sitters who pay attention to the details. From the moment we met, we knew Violet was in great hands. Our sitter took the time to understand her routine, made sure she got plenty of walks and sniffs, and gave her all the love and attention she thrives on. We received regular updates and photos that gave us complete peace of mind, and it was obvious Violet felt comfortable, relaxed, and cared for throughout her stay. When we picked her up, she was happy, well cared for, and settled right back into life at home, which is always the best sign that she had a wonderful boarding experience. We're incredibly grateful for the care and attention Violet received and are already booked again for an upcoming trip. If you're looking for someone who will treat your dog like family, we highly recommend them!”
“Marylee (and her husband) were amazing!! I pick Rover people based on if I would want to stay with them lol!! At the meet and greet she was very thorough with her questions about the cat and dog and making sure all their needs were met. It felt like she has an understanding about the types of issues that could arise and how to deal with them. Very organized. Very attentive, warm loving people. I was sent updates and photos throughout my time away. Her yard is crazy big and beautiful and fenced in. My dog LOVED it! She was able to accommodate my daughter’s cat at the same time last minute. I felt so secure knowing they were being well taken care of while I was gone. Cat had her little cat tower and pictures of the cat by the glass door able to look outside and see everything. I am done searching for Rover people… will definitely use Marylee again. Excellent!!”
“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.”
“My dog Tako was extremely well taken care of and I got frequent updates. Shanilka was very easy to communicate with and she was very flexible as my travel plans changed due to the weather. I will absolutely be using her again if I ever need!”
“Timmy came home happy! Chris was awesome. He followed all of our guidance and pampered Timmy too! Sent lots of great photos and videos and was very responsive to our needs.”
“Amazing!!! Samantha and her family watched our corgi, Momo, for two whole weeks. We got daily pictures and videos and updates, which we LOVED. She took great care of him and treated him like her own <3 He really fell in love with them (and with Winston, their friendly family dog). I’m not sure Momo wanted to come home hahaha. Best experience I could’ve asked for!”
“My 2 pups had a great boarding experience. I was updated regularly with messages and pictures. They came back happy and healthy. I hope to be able to book with you again for future stays!”
“Cal & Kelly took great care of my senior pup, Amber Louise, for nearly 3 weeks. I received daily pictures and updates on how Amber was doing and this gave me peace of mind while I was away. Cal was quick to respond to any questions I had and I could tell Amber was well taken care of from the pictures and when I picked her up. Thank you Cal & Kelly for taking such good care of my sweet and precious girl.”
“Carrie and John were great! They loved on our doodle and he felt right at home! Our pup got along great with Carrie and John’s doodle, Fozzie! Highly recommend using this awesome caring family!”
“My Golden had a wonderful 2 week stay with Karen. She sent videos and pictures everyday. Her whole family is so sweet and she has a beautiful property! Will definitely use her in the future.”
“My dog Mochiko and I can sometimes have mutual separation anxiety, but both of us can always count on Josh and Andres to make boarding a stress free and easy experience! They provide frequent updates (with photos!) and are very quick to communicate, and Mochiko clearly has such a good time playing with their pack of friendly pups! Will definitely be trusting them with Mochiko's care if I need to leave town again!”
“Bryn took such wonderful care of Leo over the weekend—we couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Leo had an amazing time with her and absolutely loved spending time with her dog, Kepler. It was clear he felt comfortable, happy, and well cared for the entire time. In fact, Leo enjoyed his stay so much that he didn’t even want to come back home! That says everything about how great Bryn is. If there were more than 5 stars, we would gladly give them to her. We will 100% be booking with Bryn again in the future. She is truly the best on the entire Rover website!”
“Evvery is Kingsley's favorite person and he always enjoys his stays with her! She's absolutely the best and gives us so much peace of mind while we're gone - I know she knows how to handle Kingsley really well and he just loves walking around her neighborhood so much. Another 5 star stay! Thanks so much for everything Evvery! :)”
“My dog Effie had a 5 star experience while staying with Bria. She was both caring and attentive to my dog and treated her as her own. I received pictures/video updates while Effie was under her care. She was even understanding when my return flight was delayed, and worked with me to arrange an extension for the additional time. Would not only recommend, but I myself will be a repeat customer. Thx Bria”
“Masha and her family were awesome! We have a dog that is reactive to other dogs and requires medication. We really appreciate the care and attention they gave our dog. We got updates and pictures letting us know all is well with him and that was very reassuring. We would definitely love to leave him with Masha and her family again.”
“What a great family and home. Curtis and Lindsay are amazing people who took great care of our two crazy pups. The open communication throughout the booking process, welcoming home, and updates of photos and videos was beyond our expectations. We will definitely use Curtis and Lindsay in the future if they’ll have our two again.”
“Joseph and his wife took amazing care of Kashmere over night. They sent updates through out the entire day/ night with pictures and videos to make sure we knew he was doing ok. Also kept him on schedule for us so there were no issues for us when we got him back. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!”
“Theresa did a fantastic job caring for Tiger! Her home was clean and quiet, which was perfect for a senior dog. Theresa was very responsive to messages and sent us daily updates and photos of Tiger, which was much appreciated. Tiger got along well with the toddler in the home and the toddler was friendly towards Tiger. Tiger was happy and comfortable when we picked him up and we would definitely book with Theresa again!”
