Highly-rated overnight sitters - Temple
“Megan is absolutely incredible. She treats our dog as if she were her own. She communicates regularly and keeps us informed. So very grateful to have Megan watch our Fina when we are away. Five stars and beyond!”
“Emily was great, gave us plenty of updates of how Brodie was doing while he was under her care and was very easy to communicate and coordinate with. Would highly recommend and have her watch Brodie again!”
“Judy was awesome with my dog, Cody! Her upbeat personality and love of dogs was so evident- and my dog really enjoyed her yard- he kept running in circles! Thank you so much for a wonderful stay- I definitely hope to book with Judy again!”
“Absolute best sitter I've left my GSD with. Hoping to book again soon so he gets more socialization with their pup. Kalani was very accommodating and understanding of my last minute request to book on a holiday weekend and my boys' anxiety that can look like aggression. Great communication and care. Would recommend her to anyone in a heart beat!”
“Kourtney is a kind and a knowledgeable dog sitter. When I overseas for almost a month, my high energy dog was boarded in her place. She kept me posted and sent pictures. I could tell how much my dog got her attentions and love. She made my absence very easy and pleasant to my very sensitive rescued dog. I highly recommend Kourtney to you when you need help. Thank you very much, Kourtney and your husband!”
“This is my Kona’s first boarding. Adriana and her family took care of Kona very well. Kona looks happy every moment. Also I appreciate Adriana shared many photos and video during the stay. I could know how Kona was doing timely.”
“Jodie was absolutely amazing with my dog over Memorial Day weekend! She went above and beyond to make sure she was happy and well cared for. She kept me updated with great communication throughout the stay and sent lots of photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My dog had an absolute blast with her, and it was clear she was in great hands the entire time. I would highly recommend Jodie to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and attentive pet sitter!”
“Ashton was great! Our dog Jack doesn't spend much time with other people and Ashton was very accommodating when our previous sitter (not from rover.com) canceled a week before the appointment. We received pictures and updates throughout the visit, communication was excellent! Thanks again, we look forward to meeting again when the need arises!!”
“I can’t recommend Abby more! She was so accommodating and welcoming to our dog. She always kept us in the loop and was sending pictures of all the fun he was having. I’m so happy we have found someone that we truly feel comfortable leaving our dog with. Again, she is so so so amazing and I can’t recommend her enough!”
About: I've loved animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up, they were always a part of my life, and caring for them came naturally. Both of my parents shared that same love for animals, so I was raised in a home where pets were treated like family—with patience, kindness, and lots of affection. That love has stayed with me into adulthood. I understand that every dog and cat has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I enjoy taking the time to help them feel comfortable, safe, and happy. My home has a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely run, play, and explore, and there's always plenty of time for walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply relaxing—whatever makes them feel most at home. When your pet stays with me, they won't just be looked after—they'll be welcomed into a home where they're treated with the same love, care, and respect I'd want for my own pets. My goal is for you to enjoy your time away knowing your furry family member is happy, safe, and genuinely cared for. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. My schedule allows me to spend plenty of quality time with the pets in my care, whether that's going for walks, playing in the yard, sticking to their normal routine, or simply giving them the attention and companionship they deserve. I enjoy making sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and right at home while their family is away. My home is clean, pet-friendly, and has a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely play and explore under my supervision. I never leave pets outside unattended, and I make sure they always have fresh water, a comfortable place to rest, and plenty of love and attention.
“This was our second time booking Amanda’s boarding services - lucky us! Sammy, our 1-year-old labradoodle, was so happy to see Amanda and Nico again when he arrived for this visit. As in the past, Amanda took fabulous care of Sammy for 4 days and nights. Amanda is a great communicator, and she sent many pictures that showed all of the fun activities that Sammy enjoyed. Sammy came home happy and healthy - and tired from all of the wonderful playtime. It is incredibly reassuring to know that Amanda is on our puppy care team! Amanda is our go-to person for boarding, and we certainly will use her services again.”
“Luiz and his family were so sweet to my pup, Echo, that I don’t think she wanted to come home! They treated her like family and she had a blast exploring their wonderful fenced in backyard and lounging on the couch when she needed a break. She played like crazy with the other pups and came home nice and tired! Luiz kept me up to date with frequent pictures and videos of her having fun. I felt so comfortable leaving her with them and will definitely rebook in the future!”
About: I work full-time from home in Amherst, meaning your dog will never be left alone or crated for long stretches. I have a large, fully fenced-in yard where guest dogs can run safely alongside my friendly 35 lb Rat Terrier/Beagle mix, Wally! Because I only host ONE client family at a time, your pet gets 100% of my attention, unlimited bathroom breaks, and constant supervision throughout the day. Whether it's lounging next to my desk or playing fetch in the yard, your dog will feel right at home. I work full-time from home, which means pet care seamlessly integrates into my day. Your dog won't be left alone or crated for hours while you're away. I take regular breaks throughout the day for yard play, potty breaks, and walks. Because I only take one client family at a time, your dog receives constant company alongside my friendly mix, Wally. Safety and comfort are my top priorities. My home features a fully fenced, secure backyard where dogs can run freely and safely. Inside, furniture privileges are welcome if that's what your pup is used to at home! Whether your dog is crate-trained or prefers lounging on a dog bed, I adapt to their normal routine. Mandatory meet-and-greets ensure everyone gets along before booking.
“Thank you Riven for taking in Remi on such short notice. I appreciate the help so much!! Remi liked being there so definitely would like to have you sit for her again.”
“Yingying and her family took such wonderful and thoughtful care of Max! He was a spoiled and happy boy while staying with them. Highly recommend and would happily rebook in the future.”
“This was our first experience using Rover and we struck gold with Vanessa. She was communicative and kept us updated on our pups while we were away. Our dogs can be a handful as one is VERY high energy, but she clearly knew what she was doing and they came home happy and healthy. I would highly recommend her to watch your pups!”
“Jie and her family were lovely hosts and took such great care of my pup! I was appreciative of the last minute meet and greet just to make sure it was a good fit for my little one and it certainly was. All the pictures and videos were wonderful and they kept her busy! I will certainly rebook in the future!”

“Amanda was a wonderful pet sitter, and we couldn’t be happier with our experience. She stayed in our home and cared for our cat while we were away, and she regularly checked in to let us know how things were going, which gave us real peace of mind. When we returned, our cat was happy and relaxed, and everything in our house was exactly as we had left it. We initially felt a little uneasy hiring someone we didn’t know to stay in our home and care for our baby for a week, but we’re so glad we put our faith in Amanda. We completely trust her and will absolutely hire her again.”
About: I have spent my entire life around animals so caring for them has always come naturally to me. I grew up in a household with over 40 animals, including dogs, cats, and exotic pets. I have spent years working in a small locally owned pet store in my home town taking care of exotics, before moving into kennel work at a vet’s office. I have experience in giving medications to dogs and cats in different methods, and monitoring their health afterwards. My primary role was offering our boarding pets the comfort of a home away from home. I’m a reptile dad every day, taking care of my own snake and bearded dragon babies. I’m currently home every day with time and love to give to other pets and their people who need an extra hand. I have a big room with a comfy bed that they can lay on in a nice couch that we can sit and watch shows on. I also have a fenced in yard outback that I can take them in to play, but I have a spacious cemetery up and across the street that is great for leash walks as well. I also have various toys and litter boxes as well.
“We had a great experience with Callie. She was very communicative ahead of time, and sent us lots of pictures every visit. Our kitties seemed very happy when we got home! Will definitely request Callie again in the future, and would recommend her to anyone looking for multi-cat care.”
“Colin was an amazing sitter for my two cats, he followed all instructions perfectly and even won over my very shy kitten. I will try my best to utilize Colins services for all future vacations since he did so well with my too picky cats. 10/10!”
“Nicole went above and beyond caring for our five cats, even making it out during snowstorms. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about our pets. We felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands.”
“Emily is extremely friendly and warm. . She has a real passion for animals and a lot of experience. She is easy to work with and excellent at giving updates about caring for your animal(s). We had a great experience in her checking on our beloved cat, Butterscotch!”
“Margaret & Dawson were great and took care of our pets like they were their own. Very trustworthy, dependable and communicative. They sent us pictures and videos of the pets with each visit. We recommend booking with them and we will book with them again in the future!”
“Kali is a lifesaver! My fiancé and I went away on vacation for 10 days and I was panicking since I’ve never left my pets for that long. She eased my worries, sent me cute pictures, and was wonderful with communication. She’s my go-to sitter and I can’t picture anyone else watching my babies :)”
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover currently owned by my Amstaff, Hazel. I recently had the chance to care for a household of three cats spanning kittenhood to senior years, which gave me a real feel for how differently cats need to be approached depending on their age and personality, from the energy of a young cat to the patience a senior one deserves. I provide care at your home so your cat stays comfortable in their own space and routine. Calm, attentive, and happy to work around whatever your cat needs!
About: Hello! My name is Emily, and I have been working with animals for over 10 years now. I have owned my own pet sitting business since I was young and have worked in kennels and dog daycares. I have experience dealing with all kinds of animals, but dogs are my favorite! I am currently a full time dog trainer so I have experience with all breeds, ages and temperaments so please let me know if you are interested in my services, I would love to meet you and your dog! I also am able to do a little training with your fur baby while I stay with them if needed! I will make sure that your dog is well cared for and well loved, I love hiking, walking and just being outside so your pup will get lots of exercise when with me. I work full time, but usually get out of work on the earlier side and sometimes work can be flexible with hours so if I have to change them I can try. When I sit in your home I am very respectful. I will keep your house clean and take care of your dog as if they were my own.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Temple
About: I'll care for your dogs like no other. Whatever your pet needs to be happy, they will get. Walks? Treats? Hugs? Massage? Toys? You name it. Just love dogs and want to give back to the many dogs I have owned and cared for in my life. Have years of experience with pet sitting. I work from home and have plenty of time to care for your pet. I am also available on weekends. Can accommodate many varied schedules. I have a fenced in yard and have over 2200 square feet of home. I have access to many trails for walking, hiking, and swimming. Star, my friendly and loving black lab lives with me and will provide the perfect setting for your dog.
“My two great danes had the best day playing with Rachel's dogs and relaxing. They felt at home immediately when we dropped them off, and are definitely missing Kevin! Very grateful and will for sure be using again if I they need to be watched.”
About: I have not been an official sitter before, but I have been a dog owner for 20 years and know how much trust it takes to leave your dog in someone else’s care. Dogs are family, and I understand the importance of making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. We do not currently have any fur friends at home, so we would be honored to share that love with your dog. I provide a calm environment, pay attention to routines and needs, and communicate clearly so you can feel confident while you’re away. Because we do not currently have pets at home, we have room in our routine to give your dog plenty of love, attention, and companionship. We can be intentional about feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and rest, and we know how important it is to keep dogs on a routine that helps them feel safe and settled. We know dogs are family, so we care for them with patience, attention, and genuine love. Our home is currently without other pets, which allows us to offer a calm environment and focused care. We will follow your instructions closely, pay attention to your dog’s comfort and behavior, and communicate clearly so you know your pet is safe and well cared for.
About: I have 14+ years experience in the veterinary field. Learning about animal behaviors, preventative care and physical health is a passion of mine. I am a very well rounded animal enthusiast that loves to stay busy. Some of my extracurriculars include training my Australian shepherd, whether it’s dock diving, agility or overall obedience. I will hold each pet to standards that support good manners, so some training may be associated with my services. I strive to exercise your fur babies intellectually as well as physically. I am very detailed oriented, and consider myself very observant. I’m not afraid to communicate and ask questions regarding your pets’ needs. I would be caring for your pet around my typical work schedule, which is M-F ~8-6pm, but I can always drop in mid day during lunch. Communicating your expectations so I may practice proper time management is important for a successful and stress free pet sitting job. I have a very well socialized 5yo male, 50lb, Australian shepherd, Oshie and he loves to play. Additionally I can provide walks, and play sessions. Hikes are also supported.

“Some people just have that natural rapport with animals and Alexis is definitely one of them! My recently adopted husky has been struggling with separation anxiety and Alexis made her feel right at home. By the time I picked Bella up, she had gone on THREE walks and I had so many photos to enjoy! I simply cannot recommend Alexis’s conscientious care enough, and the next time Bella needs daytime care I will be coming back with no hesitation. Thank you! It couldn’t have been better!”
“Thank you so much for all of the wonderful pictures and the videos of Miss Tulips day with you. I hope she was a good girl for you but thank you so much for the exceptional care and love you gave her. We will most definitely have you watched her again for us. Thank you ☺️”
“It was obvious to me that she was having a real good time with not only the other dogs but the children as well which makes me happy to know that she was well taken care of. Thank you so much for taking good care of my fur baby”
“Jodie took wonderful care of our tiny pup while we were out for the day. We had consistent updates during the sit and pictures of a very content puppy that gave us peace of mind and allowed us to enjoy the day. Already booked the next sit, so happy to have found a wonderful sitter nearby!”

About: I have had pets all my life and adore animals. I enjoy taking the time to play with the dogs, and giving them the love and attention that they need. The Townsend Rail Trail is right near my house, and I am able to enjoy multiple daily walks with my 4 year old Jack Russell Terrier, Loki, on that trail. At this time I are unable to accommodate dogs who are aggressive, or dogs who are not house trained. I currently work from Home, so I am able to devote plenty of time to ensuring that the dogs get plenty of love and attention throughout the day. My daughter also enjoy spending time with any dogs that I have at the house giving them extra love and attention throughout the day, always supervised and as appropriate with each dog. My yard is not fenced in, so a dog would be leashed to play in the yard, but I have a dog runs to enable the dogs to enjoy some time running freely in the grass each day. I am able to separate the dogs as needed and for feeding times to ensure that they remain stress free. We are able to accommodate crate training schedules as needed, our dog is only crate trained at night. We are home most of the time, but if we do leave the house we ensure that the dogs are not left alone for extended periods and we are able to seperate them safely while out of the house without crating them unless requested. We do have two cats, but as our dog does not get along with them we have them separated upstairs from the dogs and all pets are 100% safe. The dogs have free run of the downstairs and the cats have free run of the upstairs all day so that everyone remains safe and happy with no issues!
“Amazing as always- Ryder always has the best time with Amanda! He jumped out of the car this morning so excited. And available last minute which is so nice when last minute things come up. She is the best, and I appreciate her so much 😊”
“Kathryn is great. She took great care of my dog while I was at work. Sent me pictures and updates so that I knew how he was doing. Highly recommend. We did daycare with her and he loves being there and playing with her dogs and whoever else she is watching that day”
“Winston had a great day with Andrew. He loved the fenced in yard and got to run around and play with toys! He was very tired when he got home. We will continue to bring him to Andrew in the future. Thank you!”

“Lindsey was so accommodating when we had to leave Oreo (our Shi Tzu) with her for 4 days. She has a Chihuahua of her own and both of them became friends. I would recommend her for your pet day care.”
About: I love animals and have been around them as long as I can remember. I have extensive experience with dogs and cats, from birth to their last breath. I believe in positive reinforcement training. I am very loving and treat all animals with respect but can be strict when required for safety.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and currently have three of my own, so caring for them comes naturally to me. As a stay-at-home mom to four kids, I’m home and available throughout the day—meaning your pup will always have company, love, and attention. Caring for pets is second nature in my home. Between my three dogs and four kids, there’s always love, play, and activity to go around. Whether it’s morning walks, midday playtime, or cozy evening cuddles, pets easily become part of our family rhythm and daily routine. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routine closely to keep things comfortable and familiar. I make sure they’re well-fed, walked, and given plenty of love and attention—just as if they were my own. I also keep homes tidy and respect any specific instructions, so you can feel at ease while you’re away.
“Samantha is a new dogwalker for us. I met her last week for a meet & greet and she arrived right on time and was available to walk my dog, Brandi, so I could show her the neighborhood walk route. Yesterday, she came to walk Brandi while we were away. It was rainy and windy out, but Samantha was able to get Brandi out for her walk inbetween rain showers. Samantha followed all the directions I gave her and is pleasant and easy to communicate with. She responds to inquiries promptly. She is gentle with Brandi. I will definitely reach out to her again.”

About: I accommodate your pet considering their physical needs as well as your expectation. How far can they walk? Ailment’s? Health conditions? I will factor all these into each walk. I have personal experience with dogs of all ages and sizes as well as cats of all ages and am comfortable understanding their behaviors and body language. I grew up with dogs and my most recent English black lab of 14 years young, who passed in September 2019 due to her weakened hips and other health conditions. I understand the patience and care needed for senior pets. I currently have a tuxedo cat/ Maine coon who fills my days with love. I take great pride in attention and respect to animals of all ages and sizes. Endless attention and positive affirmations will be given to your lovely pets while you are away, texts and pictures will gladly be given, as a photographer I can’t help myself! Currently I have a flexible schedule as I am a freelance pet, landscape and product photographer. Looking to fill my free time with being outdoors while helping busy individuals and their fur family. Fresh water will always be accessible, while honoring their food schedules, as well as their outside schedules and activities. I will always be diligent in locking doors as well as lights left on or whatever preference makes you and your pets comfortable.
“We love Emily and are so lucky to have found her. She does a great job caring for our crazy animals and is very reliable. We will absolutely continue to book with her.”
“I needed to have Colin walk Mulligan last minute. He was so kind and friendly and accommodated my request. This was amazing as Mulligan loves Colin and feels comfortable with him. Colin always is an amazing communicator and writes up awesome notes after the visit. Mulligan and I are so grateful!”
About: I currently have two cats and two dogs that I absolutely adore and consider part of the family. I've also pet sat for family friends and have experience caring for pets with different needs and personalities. After caring for a sick fur baby of my own, I'm comfortable giving medications and helping pets who need a little extra attention or medical care. I understand how important it is to know your pets are in good hands, and I’ll always treat them with the same love, patience, and care that I give my own. ❤️ I’m currently a full-time college student completing my classes online, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for pet care. Because I can plan my coursework around my commitments, I’m able to be dependable and accommodate a wide range of pet care needs. I’m more than happy to provide in-home visits to care for your precious pets. Before any visits begin, I like to meet with families to discuss any questions, concerns, or special care instructions. It’s also a great opportunity for your pets to get comfortable with me and for us to make sure we’re a good fit. My goal is to help both you and your pets feel safe, confident, and at ease while you're away.
About: I’m a very responsible and loving pet owner. Have rescued many pets and now have found myself with some free time and would love to help new pets and people! With notice, I am completely free on Wednesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays & Sundays. (Monday, Tuesday & Friday I can be available for a few hours in the am) I have a fenced in yard with plenty of space to play and a kiddie pool to cool off in! I have three very friendly doggos myself but plenty of space so they can be kept separate if you desire.
About: I’ve had dogs in my family for as long as I can remember, and I currently live with my American Staffordshire Terrier. I’ve also cared for friends’ and neighbors’ cats. I’m comfortable with high-energy and strong breeds, as well as more low-key cats. I’ve helped manage feeding schedules, basic training, and day-to-day care for multiple pets at once. Your pet will get my full attention. I send photo updates and treat every animal like my own! I’m generally available most afternoons and weekends (some Saturdays and all Sundays) for walks, drop-ins, and sitting. My schedule can shift week to week, so please check my calendar or message me for current availability. I’ll do my best to work around your needs! I provide care exclusively at the client’s home, so your pet stays in their familiar environment with their normal routine, food, and bedding. Whether it’s a walk, drop-in visit, or in-home boarding, I focus on keeping things consistent: sticking to their regular schedule, giving them attention and exercise, and making sure they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away.
“Nicole was great with Buster! You can tell she has a love for dogs. Great communication and she was great with him. He definitely had a good time getting out for some mid day adventures, we’re looking forward to working with her again!”
About: Been around many different dog breeds and pets since I was a kid. Family and friends have all relied on me to walk, play, and stay with their pets. I am comfortable with small or large dogs! I am a part-time server 3-4 nights a week! My shifts are roughly 4 hours, and I am out of school for the summer so I am available during the weekdays and weekends. I am willing to stay with pets overnight or as long as needed at clients home to ensure their comfortability! I have references that will testify to my willingness to keep their pets safe and satisfied.
About: I have had dogs my entire life and currently own three. I have experience with a wide variety of breeds and have cared for many dogs beyond my own. I am currently a veterinary student at Midwestern University and have a strong passion for animal care. I am confident handling multiple dogs at once and lead an active lifestyle, ensuring pets receive plenty of exercise, attention, and high quality care. I am committed to going above and beyond to meet each pet’s individual needs. Pets have been a big part of my life since I was born and I am taking the passion I have for animal care into my career. I am currently a vet student at Midwestern. Your pet will feel at home and comfortable. I will make sure their schedule stays the same and they are fed and walked at the time given.
About: Ever since I was little, I have always loved caring for my own pets. I have always lived with at least one dog. I currently have a pug, two shitzus, a cat, and a bearded dragon. I enjoy giving them the love, care, and attention they deserve, and so my goal is to give the same to your pets! As summer is approaching, I will be available Monday through Friday during the week to work part-time to provide drop in/housesit and/or walking services to your dog(s). I live on a fully fenced property so dogs can run around freely without the need of a leash. Inside the house is very safe and each room has a door or gate. I only want the best for the pet I take into my home and for them to feel safe is a huge priority for me.
“Abraham walked our dog Brandi while we were away for the weekend. He was prompt at the walking times and followed our requests in sending updates and pictures each walk. Abraham realized he had a conflict last minute and we had to readjust the walking schedule, but we were able to work out a plan ahead of time. Abraham was easy to work with and reliable. It was a very positive first experience with him and Brandi was well cared for.”

“Absolute best sitter I've left my GSD with. Hoping to book again soon so he gets more socialization with their pup. Kalani was very accommodating and understanding of my last minute request to book on a holiday weekend and my boys' anxiety that can look like aggression. Great communication and care. Would recommend her to anyone in a heart beat!”
“Kourtney is a kind and a knowledgeable dog sitter. When I overseas for almost a month, my high energy dog was boarded in her place. She kept me posted and sent pictures. I could tell how much my dog got her attentions and love. She made my absence very easy and pleasant to my very sensitive rescued dog. I highly recommend Kourtney to you when you need help. Thank you very much, Kourtney and your husband!”
“Ashton was great! Our dog Jack doesn't spend much time with other people and Ashton was very accommodating when our previous sitter (not from rover.com) canceled a week before the appointment. We received pictures and updates throughout the visit, communication was excellent! Thanks again, we look forward to meeting again when the need arises!!”
“I can’t recommend Abby more! She was so accommodating and welcoming to our dog. She always kept us in the loop and was sending pictures of all the fun he was having. I’m so happy we have found someone that we truly feel comfortable leaving our dog with. Again, she is so so so amazing and I can’t recommend her enough!”
About: I've loved animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up, they were always a part of my life, and caring for them came naturally. Both of my parents shared that same love for animals, so I was raised in a home where pets were treated like family—with patience, kindness, and lots of affection. That love has stayed with me into adulthood. I understand that every dog and cat has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I enjoy taking the time to help them feel comfortable, safe, and happy. My home has a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely run, play, and explore, and there's always plenty of time for walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply relaxing—whatever makes them feel most at home. When your pet stays with me, they won't just be looked after—they'll be welcomed into a home where they're treated with the same love, care, and respect I'd want for my own pets. My goal is for you to enjoy your time away knowing your furry family member is happy, safe, and genuinely cared for. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. My schedule allows me to spend plenty of quality time with the pets in my care, whether that's going for walks, playing in the yard, sticking to their normal routine, or simply giving them the attention and companionship they deserve. I enjoy making sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and right at home while their family is away. My home is clean, pet-friendly, and has a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely play and explore under my supervision. I never leave pets outside unattended, and I make sure they always have fresh water, a comfortable place to rest, and plenty of love and attention.
“This was our second time booking Amanda’s boarding services - lucky us! Sammy, our 1-year-old labradoodle, was so happy to see Amanda and Nico again when he arrived for this visit. As in the past, Amanda took fabulous care of Sammy for 4 days and nights. Amanda is a great communicator, and she sent many pictures that showed all of the fun activities that Sammy enjoyed. Sammy came home happy and healthy - and tired from all of the wonderful playtime. It is incredibly reassuring to know that Amanda is on our puppy care team! Amanda is our go-to person for boarding, and we certainly will use her services again.”
“Luiz and his family were so sweet to my pup, Echo, that I don’t think she wanted to come home! They treated her like family and she had a blast exploring their wonderful fenced in backyard and lounging on the couch when she needed a break. She played like crazy with the other pups and came home nice and tired! Luiz kept me up to date with frequent pictures and videos of her having fun. I felt so comfortable leaving her with them and will definitely rebook in the future!”
“Thank you Riven for taking in Remi on such short notice. I appreciate the help so much!! Remi liked being there so definitely would like to have you sit for her again.”
“Yingying and her family took such wonderful and thoughtful care of Max! He was a spoiled and happy boy while staying with them. Highly recommend and would happily rebook in the future.”
“This was our first experience using Rover and we struck gold with Vanessa. She was communicative and kept us updated on our pups while we were away. Our dogs can be a handful as one is VERY high energy, but she clearly knew what she was doing and they came home happy and healthy. I would highly recommend her to watch your pups!”
“Abe had the best time! We got lots of photos of him running around their yard (which has an awesome setup for dogs!) Cherie was very accommodating to our tentative drop off and pickup windows, which was much appreciated. Would not hesitate to book with her again!”
“Joshua, you were fantastic with my dog Slippy for the full 10 days. From the very beginning, I could tell how much care and attention you gave him. The regular updates and sweet photos meant the world to me and let me truly relax on my trip. Slippy came home happy, energetic, and clearly well-loved. I so grateful for everything you did. Thank you so much, Joshua — I would happily trust you with Slippy again anytime!”
“Amanda and her family (including their awesome dog) took care of our pup as though she were their own. We received pictures and updates throughout her stay. We had great peace of mind knowing our little dog was receiving such ample love and attention. Our dog looks forward to a future stay with Amanda!”
“This was the first sleep away for Blossom and Mia but they had a fabulous time!!! I appreciated the updates/pictures and the flexability with drop off. It was a great experience.”
