“Katie took care of our dog and he cane back home super happy, you could tell he was loved and taken care of. She sent daily updates which gave us peace of mind. We will be using her services again in the future.”
“This was our first time using Miriam to board our fur baby Pepper for the weekend. We were a little nervous since we had a regular sitter for years until we moved a couple months ago. She helped us have peace of mind by showing us where our dog would be staying as well as asking us questions that would help her to care for Pepper. Miriam was very transparent and also introduced us to her doggie 🐶. Everything went smoothly and she kept us updated throughout the weekend. We were also pleasantly surprised that our dog was not as nervous as we thought she would be and was able to adapt quickly. Definitely recommend Miriam and will be using her services again.”
“Danielle is amazing! She took care of our dog as if he was her own and kept me updated with videos and pictures every day. I have nothing but a heart full of gratitude for her. I am Lucky to have found her. Thank you for everything Danielle! ♥️”
“Sha took great care of our high energy puppy, Milo. It was a very last-minute request and she was exceptionally accommodating even picking him up when we were able to meet on time. Milo was very excited after his ride in a real convertible.”
“Charlie had an amazing time and felt right at home at Luke’s house. His huge backyard offered the perfect space for him to run around and play in. It was also a plus Luke’s dog was there to play around and wrestle with. Luke is great and very tentative to whatever your dog’s needs are no matter how big or small. Will definitely book again in the future!”
“Yamy and Alfonso took such good care of my pup, Gunther! They did a ton of activities with him and were really communicative. When I picked him up, I could tell he had a great time and really enjoyed his time!”
“Milika was the BEST! This was my dogs first time being away and he doesn’t get along with others well so I was terrified for him as well as Milika. I reached out beforehand to see if we could meet and she said yes and my dog was so comfortable with her and her home. We loved her personality and could tell that she was genuinely a good person. I arranged for him to be picked up from my home and she was on time. She was very communicative and shared many pictures and videos during his stay. She made me and my dog feel comfortable during his stay. He loved her! I will be booking with her again.”
“Super glad I found Tayler! She is responsive and worked with me the whole way. I can be a bit difficult so l appreciate her friendly and helpful demeanor. I can tell my fur baby enjoyed his time away from home. I highly recommend Tayler and will use her again in the future.”

“Kelly was amazing! We reached out last minute to see if she could watch Hamilton, and she didn’t hesitate for a second. She took such great care of him and treated him like one of her own. She was quick to respond, communicative, and made the whole experience completely stress-free. We’re so grateful and would absolutely book with her again!”
“Mauricio and Dayra were great with Wyatt. He was tired from playing with their puppy all weekend and seemed to have a great time. Mauricio was responsive to any text I sent and kept me updated on my dogs stay. Their house and backyard allowed Wyatt to get his playtime and be cozy when he wanted to lay down. Highly recommend.”
“Our experience with Ashley&family taking care of Bruno, was absolutely fantastic! We couldn't have asked for a better sitter. From the moment Bruno arrived, we felt completely at ease. She was truly amazing with him, treating him like her own. He was clearly given tons of love, attention, and exercise during his stay. When we picked him up, he was happy, healthy, and full of great energy, which is the best sign a dog owner can ask for! Finally, we have to emphasize her extreme flexibility regarding our check-out time. Our travel plans had an unexpected delay, and Ashley was incredibly accommodating and understanding, making a potentially stressful situation completely stress-free for us. We are so grateful for her willingness to work with our schedule. We highly recommend her and will definitely be booking her for Bruno again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Wake Forest
I had never boarded my dog Phoebe at someone’s home so I wasn’t sure what to expect. Melissa was awesome, she was able to accommodate a four night stay with less than 24 hours notice. She’s extremely professional, before accepting the booking she requested vaccination records and actually read them as she required further clarification from the vet so I know that she doesn’t take just any random dog for monetary reasons. Clearly she cares about the health and safety of the dogs in her care as well as her own dogs. When I dropped Phoebe off and saw the fenced in yard and heard her dogs I knew she was about to have a good time, and she did. Highly recommend Melissa and would 1000% trust Phoebe with her again.
Lovely family. We felt comfortable leaving Willow, knowing she would get lots of hugs and love while we were away. We appreciated the photos and videos sent, as well. Special shoutout to Layla, who sang and sent us a ‘happy birthday, Willow’ video, as she turned 8 while we were gone.
Nicole is a true professional, and I was incredibly impressed with her from the moment I met her. She clearly has an extensive understanding of dogs, particularly canine behavior, temperament, and how dogs interact with one another. More importantly, she knows how to use that knowledge to create a safe, comfortable, and positive environment for every dog in her care. Her setup for the dogs is fantastic, and it was immediately obvious to me that she has put a great deal of thought into their safety and well-being. She also just has a wonderful, calm, confident vibe—the kind of person you feel comfortable trusting with a dog you love. Nicole kept in touch with me while Dharma was staying with her and made sure I knew she was safe, happy, and in very capable hands. That peace of mind meant so much to me. I would absolutely trust Nicole with Dharma again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone to board their dog. She doesn’t simply “watch dogs”—she understands them, and that makes all the difference.
