1. Christina B.
“Christina and her husband treated my pup like she was their own. Having multiple updates and photos was a blessing. We’ve found Harley’s new home away from home! Thank you!❤️🐾”
2. Audrey M.
“Our older cat is afraid of her shadow and keeps her distance from people she doesn’t know. Audrey was patient and gentle with her. She sent me pictures and notes every day. I like that she works from home so your pet is not left alone very often. And her adorable and very friendly kitten is happy to be a playmate or can be kept separate if needed. Give Audrey a try. You won’t be disappointed.”
3. Kristi L.
“She took great care of my boy and got him plenty of exercise as he is very playful. She kept me updated and sent me lots of pictures while I was away. Definitely will let him stay with her again!”
4. Sharon G.
“Sharon is wonderful! She kept us constantly updated with lots of wonderful photos and videos of our dog, making me feel reassured and connected throughout our time away. Highly recommend Sharon for her excellent care and thoughtful communication.”
5. Victoria K.
“Victoria did a wonderful job making Freya feel safe and happy on her first night away from our house. She went out of her way to always let us know how Freya was doing. Freya came home happy and tired from playing, we will be back!”
6. Ellyn V.
“This is the first time Brody has stayed in someone else’s home without us. What a good experience Brody had. And we feel very comfortable leaving him with Ellyn again. He was well cared for in every way.”
7. Krista C.
“Krista and her dog, Griffin, were the perfect hosts for my two Malt-Shih 2 y.o. pups. As with any siblings they have very different personalities, one outgoing but the other, very anxious. Krista, with her calm demeanor, won him over in no time, assisted by Griffin (a large dog whose size would normally trigger fear) mirrored his owner's gentle personality. I will definitely request Krista and Griffin in the future.”
8. Augusta W.
“I’ve used Augusta multiple times for my dog Hershey, and she has always been very accommodating and quick to respond. When I leave town and my dog is with Augusta it allows me not to have to worry about my doggo. She always provides updates and pictures as well, and is friendly. Highly recommend.”
9. Richard T.
“Really appreciative of Richard for doing such a great job watching my dog Oscar while I was away. Richard was pleasant, his dogs were very friendly, and his home seemed like a great and safe environment for Oscar. Richard was kind enough to book with me right at the last minute and sent me photos and videos to update me during my trip. Definitely would recommend Richard to anyone looking to board their dog.”
10. Matthew S.
“Matt- thank you for taking great care of Freddie. We appreciate all of your patience with his shy personality. We are grateful for your help.”
11. Rachel B.
“Rachel was excellent with my senior dog, Majic! I'm always nervous when I leave him with someone for the first time. But, I felt so comfortable with Rachel during the week that I was able to enjoy my vacation without worrying. I received frequent updates and pics while we were away. And, if Rachel had a question, she texted to ask. She followed all of our instructions including feeding and giving his eye medication. Rachel was very attentive and made sure Majic felt like home. We will definitely sit with Rachel again in the future!”
12. Christine B.
“Christine was so great w/ floof. He can be an anxious boy and she went out of her way to do lots of small things to make his stay as stress free as possible, working to accommodate him and what he needed to feel at home. She sent regular updates and pics, he came home a happy boy :) We'd love to use her again for future vacations”
13. Pam M.
“Pam was so wonderful with our dog! She was also very accommodating with some last minute travel plan changes we had, which was much appreciated.”
14. Sierra H.
“Sierra was great with Hyde! Hyde is very high energy and can be temperamental with other dogs, which doesn’t always make him and easy dog to sit. However, I was completely comfortable with Sierra watching Hyde, as she was very communicative when needed and sent photos of him during the sitting. I will definitely be booking again when in need.”
15. Brendan R.
“Brendan took such great care of my Weimaraner-lab mix. That she got to play with his dog, Beau, made the stay even better for her. She was pooped when she came home, which says she had fun. Brendan keeps a very clean house so I could tell she was well cared for. He also took time to meet my Trumpet dog before her visit, and ensured everything was a go before the stay. Then, Brendan kept me posted during her pup-cation. Highly recommend!”
16. Joseph L.
“Toula had a great time at Joseph’s, I received lots of pictures/updates and knew she had a nice time!”
17. Brittany R.
“Camper always has the best time with Brittany and her family. I love receiving photos and updates and it’s very comforting knowing camper is so well taken care of while at boarding. Brittany even sends home a little goodie bag with treats & a report card :)”
18. Kirsten S.
“Kristen was fantastic. She's very flexible with the schedule and allowed us to pick our pup up throughout our trip so he could join us at the dog friendly locations. We would 100% use her again if needed.”
19. Sarah N.
“Wonderful! Sarah put us at ease while we were away, taking wonderful care of our furry guy. We will definitely be asking her to watch him again. This was our first time using Rover and Sarah, and we couldn’t be more pleased!”
20. Sam C.
“Sam watched my German shepherd, Willow, for an overnight. She communicated really well, took great care of Willow, and very easy to work with. It’s clear to see Sam cares about your animal as much as you do, and we would recommend her to anyone!!”
