“Erin was amazing! She took such great care of Gus and for a long time! (9 nights) Gus had so much fun and she sent us updates multiple times a day. I had peace of mind the entire time and was never worried about my boy. We will absolutely be going back to Erin!”

“Our flight got cancelled and Rachel had to keep our pup unexpectedly for another day! Rachel was great about the inconvenience which we greatly appreciated. Our dog Lily is old and not easy and Rachel ALWAYS makes us feel like our old girl is easy and a delight 😊 Such a relief while we are away.”


“Abby is excellent! She communicates quickly and effectively. Our beloved River had a wonderful time and made new friends during her stay. Abby kept us updated with photos and videos. 5 stars! Highly recommend!”

“Allan is great, very communicative and kind. I never worried about my dog Penny the entire weekend and was able to enjoy myself. Definitely would recommend Allan, and I will be a repeat customer.”

“Jennifer has been very professional and on the top of everything, including keeping me updated with pictures and sending me timely text updates. Her diligence and communication has been excellent.”

“Ashley was GREAT! She sent pictures and updates every day while I was gone. She even called me when Gatsby had a bit of diarrhea. I would definitely use her again. Thank you Ashley and Rover!”


“Madison sent pictures and videos of my dog while he boarded at her house. I knew he was in good care and company as she has dogs of her own, so she knows exactly how to properly take care of a dog. She has even dedicated one area to her home just for dogs who are boarding. She is very flexible and accommodating as well. If in the future I need to board my dog again, I will choose her as I feel that my dog will be in good hands.”

“Kristin, you were so great with Daisy! The pictures and texts you sent on how Daisy was doing made us feel really good. When we picked her up, she was all smiles and excited! I highly recommend Kristin to anyone needed a dogsitter!”

“My dog was in amazing care while i was away. Sent great updates and lovely footage as well. BOOK IF YOU'RE LOOKING FOR A PEACE OF MIND KNOWING YOUR PET IS IN GREAT CARE.”


“We can't wait to take Stella back! She loved her stay and I loved the communication and pictures we got! I've already rebooked three additional stays. Our experience could not have been better!”
“I recently boarded my dog, Wolfie, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. He was walked every day, and it was clear he had a fantastic time. The picture updates were a wonderful touch; they showed just how happy he was. Jayden and his family who took care of Wolfie was truly wonderful, providing exceptional service and demonstrating a high level of professionalism. The quality of care was excellent, and the price was very affordable for the outstanding service received. Overall, I highly recommend this dog boarding service. Wolfie had a great time, and I appreciate the peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands.”

“We had a great experience— super communicative and flexible, with lots of photos and check-in’s so that I knew that everything was going ok. I appreciate the effort that went into helping my Eddie feel comfortable and confident in the new space!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs my whole life. Growing up my family had a golden retriever, Yorkshire terrier and beagle lab mix. I recently lost my 17 year old cava-poo. I’m currently working part time and have Mondays and Fridays available to help you out any way I can. Weekends are also flexible for your needs. I have a fenced in backyard to keep your dog safe. I also have a large crate inside if needed. My cat is super friendly and gets along with all pets.
“Logan and Ellie are amazing people. We left our dogs with them and couldn’t be happier. They took such great care of them and kept us updated the whole time, sending us photos, which gave us great peace of mind. We will definitely book with them again.”


“A big thank you to Cindie and family for Phoebe’s wonderful care while we were on vacation. She enjoyed her stay and we enjoyed peace of mind knowing she was receiving love and attention. Highly recommend Cindie.”

Waterville dog parents share their Rover experiences
I reached out to Michael in relatively short notice to see if he could take my 10yr old Doodle for an overnight stay. He was very responsive and we agreed to do a "meet and greet" since he has 3 of his own dogs. They all got along well while getting familiar with each other in his large, fenced back yard. I felt comfortable to book with Michael. He sent many pictures of my dog playing throughout the stay and also of their walks. It was very pleasant knowing my dog was in good care and not having to go to a kennel for the night. Thanks Michael (and Bella, Nova and Ginny)!!!
