“Katherine is an excellent rover host! She is very responsive and communicative. We had a nice meetup prior to the stay, and during the stay Katherine shared updates several times a day. It was amazing to see all the happy moments my dog has spent with her family. Will definitely book again!”
“We are very happy with the care Jessica gave to Milo. She was helping us a lot with the process for a first time users, she kept us updated and treated Milo like her own. We will book again for sure!”
“Yevheniia did an amazing job looking after my dog when I was out of the country for two weeks. She’s very kind, courteous and responsive. I got a ton of photos and updates on my pet while I was away which put me at ease. I will definitely request her again!”
“SUSANNE IS THE BEST!! She kept our sweet, but incredibly stubborn shih tzu at her home and took the best care of him! She really wanted to get to know him and his million quirks, and she provided him with a peaceful, comfortable, and loving place to call home for a week. She kept us updated with allll the photos and happenings which helped ease our minds since we hadn't ever boarded him anywhere before (I wasn't sure he'd want to come home!). Stop your search and contact Susanne!”
“This was our dogs 2nd visit with Mara and everything went exactly as expected. Mara maintained great communication and made drop off and pick up seamless. Will definitely continue to be a returning customer!”
“Carol and Lewis are wonderful dog sitters! I am so grateful for their great care of my Louie. I can tell Louie felt relaxed and loved by Carol and Lewis. I highly recommend them, wish I could give them 10 stars!!”
“Christal was quick to respond and very communicative while my pup was with her family! Lots of love and cuddles were given and my pup came home tired and happy! I hope we can board with Christal again!”
“Our Josie loves Lauren and her family... Lauren sends photos and keeps me updated on all the cute things our pup does. We miss our little girl when we drop her off, but we know she is in good and loving hands!”
“Kris was amazing. So communicative. Sent beautiful pictures. Chewie had the best time. Her dog Chloe and Chewie got along so well. He looked right at home. Would rebook in a second.”
“My experience with Dominique and Peter was wonderful! This was my first time using rover so I was very nervous! But they reassured us that our dog was in great hands with photo updates everyday while we went on vacation overseas My dog got along with their dog great and they had a lovely time playing in the big backyard!”
“They took care of my pup very well while we were out of town for a few days. They have such a cozy home that I know my furry friend absolutely loved! They took my dog on several walks and gave her such love and care. They were very pleasant people and I look forward to using them again soon”
“Sarah was truly wonderful with our energetic Great Dane, and we will definitely be using her again. Our boy can be excitable and somewhat anxious, which didn’t seem to phase her at all. After sensing my own anxiety about leaving him somewhere new, she checked in frequently while we were away to let me know he was doing great. It was clear from the pictures and videos that our boy was getting lots of love and attention from the entire family, which made our vacation all the more enjoyable. She even took the initiative to wrap his leg when he begun licking at a sore. I would highly recommend Sarah.”
““Thank you!!! Our boy seemed so happy and relaxed during his time there. We were also happy he made new friends with your dogs. We are thankful for this new relationship because we felt the peace of mind that we needed during our absence. You’re all definitely amazing and we’ll always think of you first each time we need a pet sitter. Thanks again!””
“Annie was great. She sent several pictures and updates on Gandalf every day. Her home was very safe for our cat and she is definitely "tuned in" for knowing or figuring out how to engage with a cat for exercise and play time. We will definitely be back to Annie for our cat boarding needs. Thanks Annie!”
“Molly and her family were awesome! I received so many pics and daily updates. Riley had several walks a day and tons of playtime. I was able to enjoy my vacation because I knew my sweet girl was in the best hands. I’m a crazy dog mom but would not hesitate to leave my girl with Holly again. Great experience!”
“Daniel is an amazing host! Champ is very clingy, but he feels so welcome and at home whenever he is there. I love the pictures and I always know he’s well taken care of! I would recommend Daniel a million times overnight”
“I had the pleasure of working with Nancy at the last minute. She was able to watch our dog(Baby) and I cannot be more happy. Baby is usually anxious around anyone she meets for the first time. Not so with Nancy. She fell in love with Nancy when she first saw her. Nancy, communicated by letting us know how things were going and sending us pictures. Although it was just for one night, I will definitely be a repeat client. Thank you again, Nancy!”
“Emme received excellent care with Anne; I enjoyed meeting her, and felt she was prepared and organized to take care of Emme. Her huge fenced yard is a plus. I look forward to Emme having another visit soon.”

Matthew and his family were so great with our pooch. We got plenty of updates and anytime I texted asking how she was doing, I received an immediate response. He was also very flexible with pick-up and drop-off times which I appreciate. We will definitely be using Matthew again!
Our two bulldogs had a wonderful stay with Matthew and his family. We received excellent communication, daily photos and knew are pups were being treated with attentive care including lots of walks and play time. We would definitely use Matthew again for pet-sitting services. Thank you so much!
Brandi was amazing. We are so happy we found her. With the new move and last minute booking we wanted someone nearby. She was awesome with all the pictures and updates and so accommodating with last minute changes. Hope we can have lLegend visit in the future :)
I had a fantastic experience with Jeffrey. Communication was excellent from start to finish—he kept me updated with messages and pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My dog had the best time playing with his dog, and it was clear he was loved and well cared for. When I picked him up, he was happy, healthy, and tired from all the fun. His home was also very clean and felt like a safe environment. I would definitely book again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!
Diana was absolutely amazing! From the moment we met, I could tell she truly cared about dogs and treated mine like her own. She was punctual, attentive, and kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My dog came back happy, calm, and clearly well cared for. I can’t recommend Diana enough, she’s reliable, kind, and truly goes above and beyond. Will definitely book her again!
