Erin and Chris were awesome! I had zero hesitations leaving Mattis with their family. They took great care of him and even updated me to say they had him in the basement during a tornado! They sent lots of pictures and he came home happy as could be! We will definitely book again!

Justin was incredible! He made sure that our pup Nash felt comfortable as well as reassured us that Nash was being taken good care of! He sent lots of updates and pictures to make it feel like we weren’t even away from Nash! Nash got to play outside, got lots of love, and even got some one on one time with Justin! We have one tired pup coming home with us! We highly recommend Justin and will definitely be taking Nash back in the future!

It was such a relief to finally feel confident and comfortable leaving my dog with a sitter so I could enjoy my vacation worry free! Victoria went out of her way to make her home safe and enjoyable for my dog who was dealing with some stiffness. I'd recommend her to anyone!

Alice was amazing with our dog! She shared pics throughout my dog’s stay and took him on walks. I knew my dog was in good hands and did not have any worries. Alice was always easy to reach when I needed to get a message to her too. I will request her again!

Casandra was amazing with our dog, Gracie. We had never used Rover or had our pets boarded. This was a perfect solution. Casandra took the time to meet us ahead of Gracie's stay. She made sure we felt comfortable and sent photos and videos and kept in touch with us on a daily basis during Gracie's stay. I appreciated it so much and felt so comfortable we booked another stay even before we had returned home. Casandra is professional and obviously loves pets. I will absolutely us Casandra again and would recommend Rover as a great resource for pet owners.

Max loves staying with Crystal. She keeps him busy, and allows him the opportunity to realize his dream of befriending a cat. He stayed over night with her this time, and was very comfortable doing so. We will definitely continue to have Max stay with Crystal!

Sara was amazing with our dog and created a remarkable first impression of Rover for us. It was our first time using Rover, but Sara made everything feel so comfortable and smooth. She sent so many pictures which put my worried mind at ease and I just knew our golden was so comfortable with her. She was great at communicating and it truly was a seamless experience. I would trust her with my pup any time!! ❤️

Kalanie was amazing! She sent a lot of pics and videos, took Leon to a soccer game, and I’m pretty sure he came home freshly bathed! He loved playing with her dogs and little kids. It was so nice to have him lived in the same way he would be at home with us!

A wonderful sitter! She gave us great updates and took wonderful care of our Hector. He's an anxious pup, but by the second day Molly was describing his behavior and he had settled into his normal routine, which is just amazing. I cannot overstate the piece of mind that gave me. Will book with Molly again!
