“Amazing sitters!! So caring and communicated perfectly! Sent tons of videos and pictures and Joey had a blast! He came home and slept so much from having so much fun with these sitters and the other dogs he played with. Thank you so much highly recommend.”

“I, or should I say Harley loves to stay with Scott an Angel. I really open their house and make it a home for your fur baby! I have used them several times and Harley gets really excited as we pull up. If you are looking for a safe, fun place for your pups vacation this is it!”

“This is the second time I have used Bonnie and Ron to watch Buddy. They are fabulous! From the moment I met them, I felt confident my pup would be in good hands. They are attentive and give Buddy much love and attention, which makes me feel good about leaving him in the care of someone else. And my dog seems to enjoy his time with them as well...no doubt they spoil him! LOL! I highly recommend Bonnie and Ron, and will certainly book with them again, whether it be for only a day or a couple of weeks.”


“Darlene took great care of Zia on this 3 night stay. It's the longest he's been away from home, and I was apprehensive. Her yard is heaven for dogs, when she told me he spent a lot of time outside, I was happy. Also relieved to hear the dogs are welcome to sleep on the bed with everyone else. Whenever I texted to see how he was doing, she wrote back very fast, and with a picture. That put my mind at ease. I really appreciate her kindness and expertise. Also, how quickly she responds to inquiries and stay requests.”

“Debra was great, Luna felt very comfortable in her care. This was a short visit to test whether or not Luna would feel comfortable with the service . We will be booking with Debra again in June for a seven day visit. I’m sure it will go very well. I trust Debra caring for my dog! 🐶”

“Do yourself a favor and book your pup’s stay with Adrienne & Nicholas. They always take care of our Doods, Toby + Dexter, as if they were their own. We recently had an unexpected death in the family. In a rush to catch a quick flight, we left needed medication at home for Dexter. They personally drove all the way to our place to pick it up for us. We are so thankful we met them.”

“Loving, caring, affectionate attention is what my puppy was given the whole time she was in their care. Piper received the best care while in their home. She had space to run she had room to sun and rest. Piper enjoyed her stay and told me that she’d like to go back. overall, I was very satisfied with the videos that I got the pictures that I received.”

“This was the absolute BEST experience! Natalie is amazing in every way. This was our first time leaving Ocean and she went above and beyond. I got updates, pictures, videos, and he got SO much love and attention while he was there. Would give 10 stars if I could! Top notch and the only place Ocean will stay from now on! No better feeling than knowing your pup is safe while you are away! Thank you Natalie!!”

“Anna was great. We had to make a last-minute trip and our usual sitters weren't available. She was professional and well-versed with dogs and our two seemed quite happy when we picked them up! We have a rescue that's still 'adjusting' and she was knowledgeable about how to handle. Has a nice big area where dogs can roam easily without getting out. Highly recommend.”

“It’s very clear Vickie knows what she is doing, understands dogs and how they interact. Nüvi is a senior dog and Vickie made me completely comfortable that she understood the needs and personality of an older pup. She had no issues giving him his daily meds he actually ATE while he was there! He hit it right off with Vickie’s dog, Shelby, and photos of Nuvi snoozing made it clear that he was absolutely comfortable there. I’ll definitely be using Vickie again and I highly recommend her!”

“Gail was absolutely fantastic with my dog! She truly went above and beyond, keeping in touch the whole time and following all of my instructions to the letter. I loved receiving daily pictures that showed just how happy and well-cared for my pup was. It gave me such peace of mind knowing my furry friend was in such loving hands!”

“Felicia and Greg did a great job keeping my dachshund happy for the week I was gone. He got plenty of playtime and lots of love. Will definitely use them again, thank you!”
“Darcy and Dave are absolutely wonderful, I have the utmost confidence in their abilities and care of my dogs. These are two people you can trust to watch your animals. I will definitely use them again for my dog watching needs.”

“Cj is amazing! We don't have kids and our dogs are our babies and we don't have any family in Florida to watch them when we go out of town. We have been stressed about finding someone we trust because we have pretty anxious dogs. Cj made us feel so comfortable leaving them with her and her dogs are the sweetest and helped make our dogs comfortable. She sent us pictures and you could tell they were having a great time and were right at home. We're thankful to have found a good place to take our babies!”

“Kristine did an outstanding job with Sage! She was incredibly thorough and made it a priority to keep us updated throughout his stay. I would absolutely recommend her to others.”

“Denise was great to take my dog in a week before I had to leave. My dog got along great with her dog. I recommend her highly. My dog had to take medicine for allergies and Denise didn’t hesitate to do the job. I will bring my dog to her anytime.”


“Dawn is wonderful. Very caring and kept us informed with pictures and messages all day and night. We appreciate it so very much. We would leave our pups with her any day. We highly recommend her. Thank you so much. Don & Nancy”


“Joseph was fantastic! He asked tons of questions in order to get to know Nacho's needs and wants. He was very attentive sent photos and his communication was spot on. He is the best dog sitter we have found thus far and hope to continue to use him moving forward.”

“Kristen was super great even though one of the pups was due for flea meds. We ended up having to end the booking early because of it, but it was totally our fault for not realizing Watson was due for the medication. Kristen was really transparent and kind about the whole thing, we’ll definitely book with her again, with everything in order on our end next time.”
West Melbourne dog parents share their Rover experiences
We had the absolute best experience with Jorge, Osvaldo and their son! This was our first time leaving Ellie with someone we didn’t already know, and naturally we were a little nervous, especially since we were on a cruise and had limited phone service. But they completely put our minds at ease. Even while we were away, they consistently sent pictures and updates so that whenever our phones connected, we’d see how well Ellie was doing. That meant so much to us. They were incredibly attentive to her insulin routine and feeding schedule, which is such an important part of her care. Knowing she was in capable, responsible hands made it so much easier for us to relax and enjoy our trip. When we picked her up, she was calm, relaxed, and clearly well cared for, which says everything. We are so grateful and would absolutely use them again without hesitation. Highly, highly recommend!

Maria has taken care of our Dash several times. He always has a great time and we know he is well taken care of. He is able to run around in her fenced backyard and even get the zoomies sometimes. He also loves laying in the sun. We know he will always be well cared for.

I am a returning client. Brian and his wife are amazing Brian communicates daily, sending pics of our girl. Brian is also very upfront and honest of his current/upcoming commitments so you can decide if it works for you. Brian’s house is dog friendly and I’m completely comfortable leaving our girl with Brian.

James took wonderful care of our dog, Rocket. Rocket takes medication and can be very homesick. James administered his medication and fed him with the special instructions left for his visit. He provided updates daily and pictures of Rocket. We will definitely use James again and highly suggest him for your pet.

Natalie was excellent with our boy! Plenty of pictures and great communication! Her pups played well with mine, and Goose came home exhausted and slept for about 3 days.. it was amazing 🤣 You can tell how much she loves animals and takes care of yours like it was hers. Thanks so much Natalie! I hope you're available next time we need care!
