“Mariyana was soooo great and flexible when I got stuck in crazy traffic for pick up. She sent me videos and I could see that Scout was clearly very happy, relaxed, and taken care of! Mariyana is super thoughtful and accommodating and I will definitely be booking with her again!”


“Theo had a great time with Dylan! It always makes me nervous when I leave town, but Dylan was so great and helped me feel at ease while I was out of town.”



“Ashely was wonderful with Remi! She sent me pictures every day and kept me in the know with what Remi was up to! Can’t wait to book again so her sweet dog Heidi and Remi can play again.”


“My boy loves it at Jocelyn’s! We are a repeat customer because she is great. Very accommodating to last minute requests and goes above and beyond. Thanks Jocelyn, from Cody and mom!”



“Josh absolutely loved staying at Alicia’s house. He went in and out to the yard all day long and found favorite snoozing spots all over the house. I got daily updates with pictures which was great. He enjoyed hanging with Alicia’s 2 Aussie shepherds and thrived in the home atmosphere. We will definitely book with her again.”


“Cassandra and her kids loved watching g Bo & Parker—they are doing Rover to test different breeds of dogs to see what kind they want to get for the family. Very cheerful and response. Always enjoy pics getting pics of the pups. Will use her again.”


“I’m so thankful for Courtney! They were able to step in last minute to watch my dog and did an amazing job. Communication was quick and reassuring, and I could tell my pup was in great hands. They gave regular updates and treated my dog like their own. It’s hard to find someone reliable on short notice, but Courtney exceeded all expectations. I would definitely recommend them and will be reaching out again in the future!”


“I am extremely happy with the dog boarding service. She was incredibly nice and took great care of my dog, keeping me updated with pictures throughout. My dog was well cared for, and I highly recommend her service to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.”


“William had a lovely stay with Arleatha. She gave my boy all the love he needed as I returned to my country and arranged for his international travel. My boy's trip was delayed by a week, but Arleatha was flexible and happy to extend his stay. I have had the best experience leaving William with Arleatha, and she shared his pics and videos every day, so I knew he was doing great. 10/10 Highly Recommend Arleatha if you need any of the services she provides. Very responsible and communicative.”


“Andrea took care of my two fur babies this weekend, she kept me updated with photos and texts the whole time. One of my pups wasn’t being too good the first day but she remained patient & communicated with me which kept me at ease while I was on vacation. I definitely recommend her 10/10”


“Coffee came back to us super healthy and happy! Kelsey was also very helpful! We didn’t measure correctly and we didn’t bring enough food for Coffee, but Kelsey was very gracious and supplemented with food of her own! We really appreciated Kelsey’s care, and we certainly recommend her.”


“Sidney was amazing! She kept me updated throughout my puppy’s stay. He looked very comfy and had a great time with her cat. Would definitely recommend 10/10. Thank you!”


“Thank you for taking such good care of my boyz! And for letting us pick them up sooo late at night after crazy delays in our flights AND our Uber. I so appreciate your care for my 2 Yorkies! I highly recommend Adrion!!”


“Michelle was absolutely wonderful with Xavi! I usually judge people based on how much my dog likes them. My dog stayed with her a few times and every time he sees her it’s like he forgets I exist 😂 he absolutely loves her!”


“Lorraine was truly wonderful with our golden retriever Chief. Our pup is a bit shy and he lost his brother in January ( our older chocolate lab). He's had a hard time adjusting to life without his brother around. But he immediately took to Lorraine. Her home is immaculate. She has a beautiful fenced in backyard. Lorraine was kind and loving with Chief. She walked him daily and he got playtime in her backyard. She sent us pictures daily of Chief enjoying himself and settling in. We could tell when we picked him up that he was perfectly comfortable at Lorraine's home. We will definitely use Lorraine again. Very grateful for her loving care. Rebecca”


“Randy was absolutely amazing!!! Sent me pictures and updates everyday for 9 days. I had no worries at all! Bentley looked so comfy and safe. :) I really appreciate Randy and the care Bentley received while I was away. Bentley and I look forward to booking another stay soon!! Book with Randy, you won’t regret it!!!”


“Leslie took wonderful care of my Roxie for over a week. It was obvious Roxie was very well looked-after - lots of walks, cuddles, and attention. Leslie was very communicative, followed our instructions for Roxie to a T, and even expertly handled a minor medical issue Roxie had during her stay. I really appreciated the pictures and video, and Roxie seemed like she had been very happy there when I picked her up :). Highly recommend Leslie, and will be contacting her for future visits for sure!”

West University dog parents share their Rover experiences
Charlie loved spending time with Kajal! She took wonderful care of him—making sure he got his exercise, giving him lots of attention, and keeping us updated with plenty of pictures. We always felt confident he was happy and well cared for. We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter!

Rei is really great. All Rovers are not the same. Dont get cheap and assume your dog is in good hands. I had a dog overheat and die with one Rover. It took me a long time to trust someone again. My dog Bankroll always comes home happy and well adjusted after staying with Rei. She is very communicative and responsive and easy to work with.

Bella had a blast staying here. Normally she has separation anxiety & wont eat or play. But when I picked up Bella, her food bag was half empty. Also, Dzina sent photos & videos showing her playing/running around! I never had any issues or concerns while on my vacation. Will be rebooking! :)

My 2 babies had a great time with Camilo ! They came back tired (the good kind) from all the walks they had and it really seemed they had a great time. Great communication during the stay and I got regularly pictures updates (one of them sleeping on a bed, spoiled 🤗) Highly recommended !!

Rikara treated my little man like he was her own. She was attentive, and followed directions on caring for him without any issues. Her dog Rams even welcomed him and let him play with his toys. I recommend Rikara to anyone who loves their dog, I won’t hesitate to reach out when I need someone to watch Meatloaf in the future.
