“Denali had a fantastic time with Dayjah and her dogs and was so tired when she came home which is great! She sent pictures every day and was very responsive to any questions we had which was very appreciated. Would definitely rebook again”

“Kate and John (and their sweet dog, Cash) were fantastic! Our dog, Sunny, had a great time and enjoyed cuddles, playtime with Cash, walks, and lots of sniffs in their fenced-in backyard. They sent pictures/updates daily and we will definitely reach out to them again for care for our dog. Would highly recommend Kate and John!”

“Our dog had a great stay with Vanessa and Andrew’s family. I got a bunch of pictures, great communication and a happy dog when I picked her up. We will be back soon! Thank you!!”

“Kay goes above and beyond. I really appreciate her attentiveness while caring for our senior, hospice dog. I also appreciate that someone will be home while he is in her care. We also really enjoy seeing her family and chatting during drop off and pick up.”
“Emily and her family took the BEST care of our dog, Archie. They made Archie feel right at home. I was sent pictures that showed just how comfortable Archie was, he was happy and truly, living his best life!! Emily's family dog, Maggie, was so sweet and the two dogs really seemed to get along well. I would absolutely recommend Emily for your pet's stay. Her and her family were SO kind and easy to communicate with, very prompt and helpful. This was our first "Rover" experience and I feel so fortunate we found this wonderful family.”

“We feel very lucky to have found Cassandra and Eric through the Rover to board our puppy while we were out of town. They were very flexible and accommodating to our requests, kind, loving, patient and attentive, and their entire family did an amazing job taking care of our puppy. The communication was great, we received updates every day with a lot of pictures and videos, and our puppy always looked very happy, playful and comfortable at their home. We are very grateful! Highly recommend!”

“This is the second time we have booked a stay with Andrea and we will definitely be coming back. My dog seems to like staying here! Andrea easily handles a special (quirky) diet. It was great to get a daily photo and update. Drop off and pick up were flexible. I’m so glad we discovered this sitter!”

“Carine, Eric, and family were AMAZING with my two dogs, I got so many updates and pictures and know my girls were getting the best care while I was away. I highly recommend them for pet care!”

“Bella had a great stay with Manami! Manami kept us up to date with photos and notes each day. This was our first time leaving our 9 year old lab with anyone but family. We were appreciative that she was so well taken care of. We would recommend Manami and Bella would love to stay with her again!”

“Frank and Clarissa were great! They’re responsive and attentive and provided excellent updates. We were glad to have them watch our dog without any concern or incident while away.”

“Regina took great care of our dog, Merlin! She was great at communicating with us and sent us lots of cute updates. We could tell he was well loved during his visit!”

“This was our first stay with Jared and Tayler and it went great! I almost forgot he was there - which is saying lot because I usually worry the first time. We got pictures and updates and communication with Tayler and Jared was superb. Oscar is staying again soon and can't wait!”

“Beth was great to work with. I have a high anxiety dog and it went much better than I hoped. Beth was calm and reassured me it would be fine and it was! It was nice to be able to enjoy my vacation and not spend it worrying about our dog.”

“William took care of our Mini Schnauzer for 11 days while we were at a national conference. He sent daily photos and words about our dog. This was a daily refresher for us knowing our dog was in good hands. Communicating with William was superb!”

Watertown dog parents share their Rover experiences
We had never left our dog for more than a day or two and we were very nervous since we were going on a long trip. We did a meet and greet with Dayjah before the stay and she answered all of our questions and put our minds at ease. We were very comfortable leaving our dog with her. She sent many pictures everyday and kept us updated on how he was doing. Will definitely book again!
