“Judy was absolutely wonderful to work with for our dog Simba. We felt comfortable and relaxed to leave him for an extended time for the first time. We could also tell that Simba really enjoyed his time with Judy and Bill. They made him feel right at home, and took such thoughtful and attentive care of him!”


“Kelli was great with my two dogs! From the original meet n greet to picking them up from vacation, the dogs seemed happy and we'll cared for!”


“Ashley took great care of our husky, Cleo. We got so many pictures and videos which was really appreciated! Ashley was very communicative throughout the stay. We would definitely board Cleo with her again and highly recommend her services to anyone looking for doggie daycare and boarding in the area!”


“Christine did a great job with our dog. He is a shy and skittish boy and I appreciated her patience with all of his eccentricities! I would definitely use her service again.”


“First time using Rover. My dog is a little shy around a new environment, but her care quickly put him at ease and he had a great time! Lots of videos and photos were provided. We're so glad to meet Niratcha. Thank you so much!!! He will return to you soon.”


“Jessica took special care of our dog that tends to be very timid and nervous with new people. She sent pictures and gave updates on how he was doing that make us confident in the care that was being provided. We definitely recommend and trust having Jessica watch our Winston!”


“We had Maverick, our 7 months old Husky, with Shauna & Peter for 10 days..They took such a wonderful care of Maverick and shared many photos and videos every day..They took Maverick for multiple walks and lot of outdoor activities. He was very much loved and enjoyed his stay with Shauna, Peter and their daughters. We are glad we found them on Rover. They are wonderful! I would highly recommend Shauna & Peter and would definitely have them to take care of Maverick next time!”


“I couldn’t be happier with the care Renu provided for my two girls! From start to finish, she was professional, loving, and incredibly attentive. I received regular updates, including photos and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that my dogs were not only well cared for but also genuinely happy and comfortable. I highly recommend Renu to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate pet sitter. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”


About: I have been taken care of our pets for over 15 years. We had two pets, one passed away 2 years ago and we have 10 year old dog whom we love sooo much I love to go on walks around our block to enjoy time with our dog and kids. I Love spending time in our yard as much as possible. And as my job will be changing to working from home in a few months, I will be enjoying much more time to spend with the dogs in our home. Our house is fully fenced and we have plenty of yard for the dogs to play. We like to have the dogs enjoy all our house as if it was theirs. And they have freedom to play and get on couches to feel comfortable

“Victoria was amazing! This was the first time we had left our puppy with someone and she immediately put us at ease. She was incredibly attentive and sent us lots of pictures and updates. I look forward to having her take care of Timo again!”


About: I have been a lifelong dog owner, with 35 years of hands-on experience in caring for dogs. I raised my daughters alongside our family dogs, teaching them the importance of compassion, responsibility, and consistency in pet care. I take pet ownership seriously—always dependable, attentive, and loving. For me, pets are family, and their well-being is a top priority. I’ll be retiring very soon from my full-time career, which means I’ll have the time and flexibility to fully dedicate myself to pet care. I’m available on both weekdays and weekends, making it easy to accommodate a wide range of schedules! I will be sure to provide a safe, comfortable environment for every dog I take care of. I will also follow all owner instructions closely and stay aware of your dog’s needs and behavior.

“Karin was wonderful with our dog, Cooper. She took him on several walks per day, played fetch with him and treated him like he was her own dog. Karin updated us daily with pictures and texts. Karin is very easy to work with and allowed Cooper to have the run of her house. He was very comfortable with Karin and so were we and we would highly recommend Karin to others. We will be using Karin as a dog sitter in the near future.”


About: In middle school and high school, my brother, sister and I would frequently get to dog sit our cousin's Toy Poodle, Rosie. She was like our own dog and we loved having her over to walk and dress up and cuddle. We got our own family dog around my sophomore year of high school, a Jack Russell Terrier named Chavo. We did so many fun things with him like taking him swimming, taking him to a dog carnival, and countless walks. He gave us the best memories. Even after I moved out for college, I would make sure to bring him to my home to spend time and play in the backyard. He lived a long 13 years and we miss him always. His memories always bring me so much joy. Whether it is someone else's doggy or my own, I will make sure to love them and treat them like family. I can't wait to meet your furry friend! I work from home and I typically start around 12 PM. I typically have a rotating weekend (which you will be able to see based on my calendar of availability). I think this schedule will be great for people who need their dogs taken out late morning. Although I live in an apartment, the area is very dog friendly. There is an enclosed dog park and we are right across the street from Randall Oaks, which has paths for a 35-45 minute walk. I am open to drop in visits, doggy daycare or having your furry friend as a overnight stay.

“Indre is great! Our pup was well taken care of and was well taken care of.”


“Pupps looked like they had a great time! Autumn was super helpful in watching them while I was on vacation with late notice on my part. Would recommend to anyone in need of dog watching!”


“Beth is a wonderful, caring person for your pet. She treats them as her own which gives you peace of mind while you are away that your “baby” is being treated well and loved. I’ve taken my dog there several times and will continue to do so as long as she will let me. 💕”


“Cleo had a great time at Lyndsey’s. She was well cared for and came home happy! 🐶😃”



“This was our dog Cooper’s second stay with Melynda, and this time it was a whole week! Cooper was well taken care of, we got plenty of pictures and updates, and we will be back for sure! Thanks Melynda!”


“Leslie was Great with our Maisy - Leaving our "little one" for almost 2 weeks we were very pleased when we picked her up and found that she was as happy and healthy as she was when we dropped her off. Leslie and her husband gave Maisy the attention, walks and love that she needed. Thank you both for your loving care! Betty & Henry”



“Tricia was awesome! Her dogs are so cute & you can tell she really loves animals as this is all she does so her main priority is your babies. We got so many texts while we were away which we thought was amazing. Knowing our babies were happy & doing good made us feel really good about leaving them with her. They loved her & she loved them too & my little Bella was super tired when we got her back and napping all night which was such a relief. We can’t wait to have them stay with her again and I’m sure they’ll be excited too!”

Algonquin pet parents share their Rover experiences
This was our second time using June and we couldn't be happier! She takes such wonderful care of our dog—she’s thorough, thoughtful, and always keeps us updated with great photos and messages. It’s clear she loves him and treats him like her own. ❤️ Our dog absolutely adores his hour-long walks with June (which she asked about ahead of time). He always comes home happy and tired! He also loves having Cookie to play with, which is such a fun bonus! We truly wouldn’t trust our pup with anyone else. June is amazing!!

Derek and his family took great care of our dog. Our dog is highly attached and anxious but he was very patient and understanding and made sure our dog got comfortable being away from us. He was very communicative and provided consistent updates without having to ask for them. I would definitely look to have the family watch after our dog again.

Excellent and loving care of the dog. Can't think of anywhere else I would want to leave him if I needed to go out of town.

Such a caring and friendly Rover! I never worry when I leave my dog with Leslie. Thank you again for your kindness and care.

Once again, Jessica and her family are the perfect hosts for my Bear. This is the third time he has stayed with him and I can tell he is getting the very best care I could possibly ask for. She’s great about sending pictures and letting me know how things are going. I can’t say enough about Jessica!

Ben was a fantastic dog sitter for our two black labs (ages 8 and 10) on short notice! He was responsive, dependable, and clearly great with dogs. Our pups were happy, relaxed, and well cared for when we returned. We’re so grateful for his help and wouldn’t hesitate to book him again!

Tyler did a great job taking care of my two dogs. He played with them every day and made sure they got plenty of enrichment, and made sure to send a lot of pictures and useful updates. He was also very flexible and kind when a flight delay caused us to need to push the pick up time a lot later. I highly recommend Tyler and only have good things to say about him as a dog sitter. We would happily work with him again in the future!

John took great care of my cats Chickpea and Kiwi when I traveled for an extended weekend. I had never boarded my cats before and he was very patient and answered all my questions. He used to send pictuers a couple of times a day and was prompt to responding to any messages. Highly recommend and will definitely board my cats with him again
