“Carisa did a wonderful job. She took really good care of my dog Simba. She was really attentive, and everything went off without a hitch. I could tell Simba was comfortable and happy, and it just gave me so much peace of mind. Overall, I’m really grateful for how smoothly it all went.” I would highly recommend her.”
“Katie and family are great! Our small maltipoo had some separation anxiety and was a little hard on the family’s sleep. Katie worked it all out though and by the time we picked our pup up, he was completely happy there. Thank you!”
“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!”
“We had a two and a half week vacation planned to Japan and boarded Mochi with Dickson. I'm always quite nervous and anxious whenever I have to leave Mochi anywhere, let alone somewhere for over two weeks, but Dickson was very friendly and made it so I had nothing to worry about! He took care of Mochi really well and sent regular updates. When we picked her up, she came back happy and tired and loved. Thank you for taking such great care of her!”
About: My husband and I have had dogs our entire lives. We have been fostered dogs in the past and our children and current dog both love friendly furry pets! I have very open availability- I am a stay at home mom and 2 of my kids are in school. So outside of drop off and pick ups I have open availability! I have a fenced yard and a friendly small dog to keep your pet company! We enjoy going on walks around the neighborhood and playing fetch in the backyard.
“JoAnne is the best! She provided updates and pictures throughout the stay. Ralph had a blast with the whole family and was spoiled with Hunny play time and snuggles. We will continue to come back to JoAnne as long as she provides the service. Thank you!”
“Yaqi is absolutely the best, I have an elderly Frenchie who is generally with me 24/7. I was very worried about leaving her with anybody but Yaqi very quickly put my mind at ease. She sends many pics and videos and my dog loves her. I won’t sorry next time I leave town because I know my dog will be with Yaqi.”
“Our little guy was well cared for by Elizabeth. He cuddled up to Elizabeth right away and I knew he’d be happy for the week. We’ll definitely bring Muddy to Elizabeth on our next vacation or weekend away. Thank you Elizabeth!”
“My dog had a great stay with Karin! She was well taken care of and really loved it there. Karin took care of all her needs and sent up updates all the time. We will use Karin’s dog sitting services for our next vacation.”
“Alicia was the best! I knew from our meet and greet that she was going to be great with Tig and of course she was. I had no worries while we were out of town as she sent updates and photos of our Tig often. I can tell he is going to miss his new hangout and all their love & cuddles. I will absolutely book again if I need to in the future.”
“Wonderful experience for both us and our dog. She was kind and welcoming making our girl feel right at home. She also was a wonderful communicator. Her picture updates and videos made me feel at ease while we were out of town. I cannot say enough wonderful things about Geraldene!! Her care and compassion for our Luna was top notch!! Highly recommend!”
“Jae and her family were amazing to my sweet puppy. I could not have asked for a better family to take care of my dog; we felt absolutely blessed to have such a perfect home when we were gone. The entire family treated her like she was part of the family, and I always felt comforted on my vacation to receive pictures of my dog enjoying her days with her interim family. I will absolutely only use Jae now. And our dogs have become great friends too, so what an incredible bonus!”
“Dave and Mary were amazing! They took such good care of our special guy and went above and beyond and kept us updated throughout the stay. They were also nice enough to keep him an extra day when we got stuck in a snow storm on vacation! We highly recommend!”
“Patricia took amazing care of Zoey. She was great with sending us video and photo updates which gave us peace of mind. I highly recommend Patricia and look forward to having her watch Zoey again.”
“Dorene was absolutely amazing. She took such good care of our boy, Beau! I am always nervous to leave him with anyone because I want him to have the best care possible and I know no one will care for him like we do. Dorene exceeded our expectations. She knew I was nervous about leaving Beau and she made sure to keep my mind at ease. She kept me updated every day with pictures and even on the busy days during our trip when I didn't get to check in, she checked in with me to let me know how he was doing. I would highly recommend Dorene to anyone that needs a sitter for their fur babies.”
Algonquin pet parents share their Rover experiences
We couldn’t be happier about the care our greyhound Steely Dan received from Derek and his family while we were on a 3-week vacation. During the time we were away we regularly received updates and photos that assured us Steely was being made to feel at home. Derek has a large dog, Ellie, who is quite friendly, and there were no issues with Steely and Ellie spending time together. Steely is sensitive to thunderstorms, and the meds we provided were administered appropriately with no issues. Finally, when we picked Steely up, he seemed relaxed and content. We always felt confident he was in exceedingly capable hands.
Dorothy was wonderful to work with. The communication was great and I was very comfortable leaving my dog in her care, I highly recommend her! I've had other sitters and it was normal for my dog to be stressed out and not eat food for a day or two. Much to my surprise, my dog ate normally right from the start which is a huge testament to how well Dorothy nurtured her and helped her relax.
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!
