Nicollette was great with our dog Rocky. She was quick to respond with the updates while we were out of town. I would certainly use her services again.

Thank you for boarding Josie these two nights. It was great to have another friendly dog for her to hang with. I really appreciate how much experience you have with dogs. Real dog people.

Kim was so great with our pup! We got lots of photos and videos, messages every day letting us know how things were going, and generally made us feel at ease. Our dog is a little on the special needs side (formerly abused and suffers from separation anxiety) and we felt she was so safe and cared for with Kim. We will definitely use Kim again!

Kerry took such great care of Junie while we were away for the holidays- even getting her a stocking for christmas! She was very communicative and flexible, taking Junie a night earlier than planned to accommodate our schedule. Kerry sent daily updates and photos and gave Junie lots of love. You should feel confident Kerry will take the best care of your pet. Thanks Kerry!

First time Rover user and also new in town. When my husband and I found out we had to do a last-minute trip 2 weeks ago, we didn’t know where to go. Luckily we found Serena (Fnu) on Rover and based on good reviews, we decided to contact her. We had such a great experience with her. She was very friendly, professional and above all very wonderful to our three senior dogs. They came home happy, safe, and well-fed. Serena was super easy to work with, flexible and understanding. She sent us lots of pics of our dogs while we were away. Her fenced backyard gave me such a peace of mind. I was apprehensive using Rover for the first time but we really found a great dog sitter. We surely will be repeat customers with Serena!

Shane took such great care of our boy Levi. He sent pictures right away to let us know our pup was settling in, and throughout his whole stay to let us know how he was doing. We didn't worry about him at all and could tell from the pictures, and when we picked him up, that he had a great time! This will be Levi's new home away from home.

Mery and her husband were both so loving to my Vanilla. They took great care for her the entire time she was with them. Mery was consistent with updating me of how Vanilla was doing and consistent with sending pictures and videos. She’s very responsive, easy to communicate with, compassionate and caring. Will definitely book with her again.

Kona had a great stay with Geoffrey! We judge how well it went by how tired she is when we pick her up. She went right to her kennel and passed out when we got home, and has spent all day the next day snoozing on the couch. Geoffrey was flexible when we had to drop her off earlier in the day due to a last minute flight schedule change, and he had her ready to go when we got home. Her food/water bowls accidentally got left at his house, and he was awesome and brought them to us the next morning.

Amazing communication, follow up, and care through the whole process. Dog parents know how difficult it is to drop their baby off with anyone - they provided a meet and great and shared updates each day. Couldn’t ask for more.

Christine was very kind and Jolene seemed happy to be there! Her kids are very kind and clearly know how to interact with dogs, even more anxious ones. I would definitely board Jolene with Christine again in the future.

I feel so grateful for the care and attention Brian and his wife gave my dog Harley! Harley stayed for 3 nights and had just gotten dental work, so he had some special instructions I had to give. I could tell Brian was experienced and easy-going about any special care needed, and I just felt relieved to know Harley was in good hands and was not going to be seen as a burden. I really appreciated their welcoming and clean house and all the great spaces for Harley to explore. Their dog was such a friendly, well-behaved pup as well, and I think that gave Harley a welcomed distraction for his stay. Brian eased my worries about Harley’s separation anxiety and kept him engaged and loved for his stay. It was a great success for me and Harley on his first time staying with someone he didn’t know. So happy with the experience (and the awesome pictures I received!) thank you both!

Eduardo and Sue did a wonderful job caring for our two corgis, including one rambunctious 8 month old and the other who is still recovering from surgery. We gave them a fairly long list of instructions and they were very kind and attentive to both boys' needs. We received regular updates and it was clear the boys were happy and having a great time. During pickup, Eduardo and Sue said they would love to watch them again some time, which I think makes clear how much they care for their Rover guests. Highly recommend!
