“Ashleigh and Bill are amazing! They treat our golden like one of their own! He even hogs their bed lol… We are so thankful for such awesome people to watch our guy when we travel!”


“Greg was great with our special needs Yorkie-mix, Bella. He really got to know her helped to make her stay comfortable and enjoyable. She also really enjoyed the beef-carrot dog treat Greg made. He sent photos/videos of Bella to keep us updated. We’d definitely have him and his family watch Bella again!”

“Amber was AMAZING ? We left our Marlie girl with Amber for week while we went out of state. I was a little nervous about being so far away but Amber put my mind at ease with multiple updates daily and lots of pics. They went on lots of long walks, played in the great big backyard and chased squirrels. I am so grateful to Amber for taking such good care of our girl. I would highly recommend Amber. Marlie is already excited for her next pup vacation at Amber’s house”

“Kayla was wonderful, even with me as a last minute, first time rover booker. We are so grateful to have had her watch our precious Milo. She sent update pictures. Was super communicative. Clearly loved on him tons- as he was extra demanding and not appreciative of us working vs playing when we got home lol Will 100% use Kayla again!”

“They did great! My dog was a little nervous at first and they sent me a video showing how happy and comfortable he was! Definitely better then a regular boarding kennel with extra 1 on 1 attention.”


“We’ve used Rover in New York, Columbus and now Dayton, so we have a bit of Rover experience. Carol and Jessica are fantastic hosts. They have a great set up and two lovely well behaved dogs. They handled our finicky Bichon for a 3-day stay perfectly. They’re very caring and kept us up to date every day. Just a great experience!”
“Nani loved her stay with Paige! Not only did she go right in and make herself at home, she enjoyed lots of rubs and cuddles the whole time! I can’t praise enough the great communication and flexibility when requesting additional time. Please know, your fur family will be well cared for in this home!”
“She really helped me out and she let me extend extra days on short notice and she just didn't absolute great job with Carhartt I am will definitely have her as my number one go to for babysitters”

“Ezgi was absolutely incredible from start to finish. This was my very first time using Rover, and honestly I was nervous leaving my dogs, especially because they can be anxious and need a lot of patience and care. Ezgi went so far above and beyond anything I expected. She kept me updated, made me feel completely at ease, and treated my dogs like they were her own. You can genuinely tell she cares deeply about animals and takes what she does seriously. Knowing they were safe, loved, and comfortable made such a stressful trip so much easier for me emotionally. She was kind, communicative, thoughtful, and just an overall amazing person to work with. I truly cannot recommend her enough. This was my first Rover experience, but definitely not my last because of her. If you’re considering booking with Ezgi — do it. Your pets will be in amazing hands.”

“Bill was amazing! He helped me out last minute when it didn’t work out with a sitter and I had to travel the next day. He had a great fenced in yard and quiet neighborhood so I felt at ease having Ni Ni there. Bill sent updates and took wonderful care of her. Will definitely book again!”

“Daisy and her family are wonderful! They just loved on Sadie like their own. I think Sadie suffered a little withdrawal from playing with the other dogs for a week when she came home. She missed her buddies and her home away from home. A week later she is going back for another overnight stay!”

“Emily is amazing, always takes such good care of Opal. I can always count on her to take care of my girl when I'm gone, and send lots of wonderful pictures too. Thanks for all you do!”


“Nate and Whitney were one of the greatest first experiences to have using the rover app they took such good care of us and constantly gave us updates as to anything that was going on. They will definitely be my first choice the next time I use the service 10 out of 10.”

“Kyri W took excellent care of our puppies. Even on short notice she accepted our puppies into her home gave us daily updates videos and pictures. That made us feel like they were in great hands. Her interactions with our puppies let me know that they trust her too.”

Ashlee is wonderful! We booked last minute and were a bit nervous leaving our pup for 6 days but Ashlee was very kind, understanding and knowledgeable about what pups need and offered us much assurance our girl would be just fine. And Elly loved her stay! We will definitely use Ashlee in the future.
