Diana and her family were really sweet. She watched my 2 yorkies for the weekend and I felt very comfortable leaving them with her. She was quick to respond to messages, sent me pics of my pups while I was gone and was flexible with drop off/ pick up times. We already have our next stay with her booked, thanks Diana!

I highly recommend Ivan's services - while just a short 1 day stay, he took great care of our pup. He came back to us 24 hours later well-fed and having taken multiple long walks. Ivan kept us updated throughout the stay w/ quick snippets and several pictures. We will definitely request Ivan's help again!

Diana & Michael did a wonderful job watching our miniature dachshund. They were super sweet and welcoming, and kept us updated regularly on activities they were doing and even sent pictures! We always felt our dog was in good hands with this trustworthy couple. We would absolutely love for them to dog sit for us again!

Kiara watched my dog for a few days with fairly little advanced notice. I appreciated her flexibility in arranging a meet and greet as this was the first time my dog stayed with her, and she was very communicative about her home and family. I received updates throughout my dog’s stay. I would board my dog with Kiara again!

Simon and Vivian were awesome watching our 14 year old dog! He’s definitely not the easiest to watch over since he tends to be anxious in new environments. Simon and Vivian were super accommodating and sent plenty of updates/ pictures throughout the day. They were also very responsive if we ever reached out! Simon and Vivian even went the extra mile by helping to wash our dog’s blanket after he had an accident during the night. Would definitely recommend them as your next dog sitter!

I definitely recommend Sara and would let her watch my dog again:). I was nervous at first and never used Rover before. But she gave me daily updates, walked him, and sent multiple cute pics of him. My pup Milo looked very happy to be there in all of them. We had a delay at the airport coming back home and ran late picking him up, but she was super nice and understanding about it. Thank you again Sara! I’m glad you were my first experience with Rover. ??

Our dog loved the kids,and it showed through the regular communication! All the supplies came back in clean wonderful condition as well. We felt confident that our dog was well taken care of by Karl and family. We asked if they would be “willing” to watch our barkey dog again.

I couldn't be happier with the care William provided for my dog, Cloud. William watched Cloud for 17 days, and during that time, he did an amazing job. Not only did William provide excellent care, but he also went above and beyond by training Cloud, socializing him with other dogs, and even grooming him. Cloud came back to me a better dog than when I left him, and I couldn't be more grateful. Thank you, William, for your exceptional care and dedication!

Andy was an excellent boarder for Tomo - we got lots of pics, videos, and updates, and knew Tomo was having a fun time and was safe and well-taken care of. Andy asked many questions to make sure all of Tomo's being needs were met, and she came home happy and very tuckered out! Milo is also a great canine companion and sets a good example for other dogs. We would definitely recommend Andy!

About: I've had furry companions by my side since I can remember! Currently, I'm the proud parent of two adorable ten-year-old pups, Ox and Stella. Ox, a mini French Bulldog, and Stella, a Boston Terrier, bring so much joy into my life with their unique personalities. Despite their differences, they're the best of friends. Adding to the mix is Milo, my sweet 16-year-old cat, who enjoys soaking up the sun and exploring the great outdoors. He's a seasoned pro at cohabiting with dogs, making our little family dynamic extra special. My partner and I are fortunate to work from home full-time, ensuring that our beloved pets receive all the care and attention they deserve. Your furry friend will be treated like royalty under our roof! Both my partner and I work remotely full-time, affording us flexible schedules. This ensures that your pet will receive the utmost care and attention they deserve. Additionally, we're happy to work around your schedule. Your furry friend will be well looked after at my place for boarding. And if I'm watching them at your house, I'll make sure to stick to the guidelines and notes for top-notch care. Don't hesitate to reach out with any questions—I'll keep you posted with plenty of updates along the way!

Connie was absolutely amazing with my cat Sona. Sona's never boarded before, but Connie and her cat Juju made Sona feel so welcome! I was away overseas, and had to unexpectedly extend my booking - Connie was super understanding and flexible, and sent me the cutest daily pictures of Sona. We both had an amazing experience and would definitely rebook a stay with Connie!

We loved meeting Kathleen and her family before our dog Penny actually stayed at their home. For us, their location was convenient and what was even better is the family had a kind and warm spirit. Penny came back well rested and in good spirits. Kathleen and her family made sure that Penny was well taken care of. Penny is an equal part of our family, so finding good care for her is very important to us. We’re very pleased with Kathleen and appreciated all the photo updates on Penny’s stay.

I have only had my dog Foxy for a short while, so I was a bit apprehensive about having to travel without her. But Anna was so kind in meeting Foxy and listened to all my concerns and nuances about her care. From all the pictures Anna sent me, I could tell that Foxy was relaxed and having a good time - which let me relax and have a good time in my travels.

Zicheng’s family did a great job watching our dog! They allowed us to come over to meet them and their dog Kennedy before we made a decision. While we were gone, they stayed in contact with us and sent a lot of cute pictures and videos. They tracked the potty schedule of my dog and let me know. They let my dog sleeping with them to make her feel like home. Our dog seemed very happy and comfortable at their home. Would definitely recommend Zicheng and rebook with them!
