“We were very happy to meet Steven and Karin. This was our first time boarding Ted with them, and Steven offered a Meet & Greet to make sure we were a good fit. From the start, they were extremely friendly and made Ted feel comfortable. They also have a very sweet, well-behaved dog who got along great with Ted. Ted came home happy and completely exhausted, which is rare for him! We highly recommend them and will definitely book again.”

Upon entering Chloe‘s home it was obvious Jake immediately felt comfortable, safe and was treated like a member of the family and spoiled with his favorite things to do just like if he were at his own home. Until Chloe, Jake would only lay next to me. I was so happy when I received a picture of him so content laying next to Chloe. It was great knowing he was in such wonderful, caring hands. I highly recommend Chloe and I personally will only trust Jake with her. Such a wonderful couple with true love & joy for animals.”
“As always, I felt that my pets were left in the best of care with Lauren while I was away. The space was clean, safe, and clearly set up with dogs’ happiness in mind. It's obvious how much love and experience goes into their care. We’ll definitely be booking again!”
“Nina was amazing. Tucker had a lot of fun with her. I’m sure he enjoyed a lot playing with her big and sweet dogs. She sent me pictures and was very responsive. And besides that he got home worn out, meaning that he burned a lot of his energy.”
“Donovan was very accommodating and understanding with our pit bull! His place was very clean and seemed like a safe place for our boy. We were even running behind on our pickup time and he was very understanding and flexible. As well as sending us photo updates. Will be using him again in the future :)”
“Layne watched my Tyler (cat) for several evenings and provided daily pictures/updates on how he was doing!! She was friendly and professional and made the entire process very easy. Glad Tyler had a good place to stay!!! I would definitely recommend.”
About: I have owned dogs before I could even read. I have always loved dogs and have cared for a large variety of dogs, whether that be age, size, gender, or breed. I have such a love for dogs, I’ve considered becoming a dog trainer ever since I was a child. I’m not currently working, so I’m very flexible with reservations. Just let me know ahead of time and I can be very flexible with you! I remain consistent in their daily routines, especially for potty breaks. I am a huge advocate for positive reinforcement training, so I will make sure the dogs are recognized for doing good.
“So grateful for her flexibility and care. Samantha was kind and welcoming as we left out fur-son with her. We loved getting photos of all the fun and exercise he was having. We certainly felt less guilty leaving him behind on vacation because he looked like he was having such a great time with his new friends. I loved that he was in a home environment with other pets and just seemed like one of the family. I will 100% rebook with Samantha! My daughter adds: “Her dogs are super cute and friendly. I’m glad our dog had lots of fun with them.””
“Ashley took great care of my two dogs at her kennel. The only thing I would mention is that I had assumed she was watching them at her house when I booked her, but it was really where she is a groomer, so the dogs were kept in a kennel except during play & potty breaks. There were several other animals there. You could tell Ashley loves animals & they did great in her care.”

“Olivia was amazing. We just moved to the area and needed someone to help out while we went on our honeymoon. This was our first rover app use. I met Olivia before our trip. She was very sweet and attentive. We felt so reassured that our kitties were in good hands. She left our house cleaner than we left it and our kitties loved her. 10/10 She will definitely be our first pick next time we go out of town.”

Me and my wife have a home in Joplin missouri with a huge privacy fenced back yard. Rest assured your pets will have plenty of space for play and relaxing. I am photographer and a stay at home dad!

I often walk my sisters dogs when she can’t due to health issues. I’m ready, and have my walking shoes on! I’m retired now and walking my dog keeps me moving and I love it!

“Sarah was really friendly to meet and great at communicating when we were away. She sent us pictures of the pets. We felt good that someone was dropping by the house while we were gone. Additionally, we loved that our dogs were getting worn out so they didn't focus their energies on the couch! I will most definitely be contacting Sarah again when we travel.”
About: Hi guys! I've been around cats and dogs, and taking care of them; walking, bathing, dog sitting, play dates, etc., since I was young. I have three animals myself, two dogs and a cat; I've had my fur baby Lucy for 14 years now, so I do have some experience with senior dogs as well. I also have always been the go to for friends and family when they need someone to care for their babies. I know most people are pretty divided on the "dog person" vs. "cat person", but I personally love both equally! I'm currently a stay at home mom, so my schedule is fairly open, outside of nap times. Because of this, I will easily be able to accept no notice requests. However, the more of a heads up the better of course! I personally have three fur babies myself; one large breed dog (60+ lbs), an overgrown weiner dog (my senior girl), and a selective cat. They are all up to date on vaccinations, as well as spayed/neutered. My dachshund is very friendly with all animals; large and small, but I don't plan on introducing my animals to any animals that I am trusted to care for.

We separate dogs by size and demeanor. We also have a huge dog room four feet from my bedroom. We create at night like most people do at home. If your pet does not need to be created we accommodate to that as well.

Every Saturday for about 4 years, I helped my parent's neighbor take care of the foster dogs she housed.
