“I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! It is clear how much Joanne truly cares for animals. She was incredibly sweet, attentive, and treated my dogs like her own. I came home to happy, well-cared-for pups—and that peace of mind is priceless! She kept me updated, was easy to communicate with, and went above and beyond. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and genuinely loving toward animals.”
“I feel bad for myself when my dogs have a good time without me. - but THEY LOVE GOING TO DEB’S! An overnight and no problems, no starving themselves, no crying all night. Just a regular day only without me. How lucky am I to have access to this help for my furr babies (and for my soul)!”
“Jason was attentive and attuned to Fennel and sent us lots of pictures across his extended weekend stay. He has a lovely house and wonderful large fenced yard for the pups to play in. We’d board Fennel again with him next time we fly out of Newark!”
“Jim provided excellent care for my pup. I really appreciated his availability when my previous boarding arrangements fell through at the last minute. My pup is a finicky eater and Jim kept me up to date on her feeding habits and asked permission to add tempting meat to her food to entice her. She loves to run at full speed, so his fenced property was ideal. Jim also communicated with me as well as provided plenty of photos during her stay and a video of her socializing at playtime. Thank you Jim!”
“This was Bella's first stay with Angela, and it appeared that both were having a great time, so we ended up extending it by a few days. Angela clearly loves dogs and is very attentive to details. She has 3 small dogs of her own and her place is a great doggie resort, with a nice fenced-in back yard and a lovely deck that is safe for them to play around. The only problem I had to deal with Bella was the readjustment to the daily grind back home. We are booking a second vacation for Bella at Angela's next month.”
“Emily was wonderful! Lilly loved being with Emily and her husband for the week. Emily was very professional and kept me updated daily on how Lilly was doing. Every time she sent me videos or pictures, Lily was happy and running around. Definitely will be using Emily again for pet sitting services!”
“Tanvi took excellent care of Munchkin! She was also very knowledgeable about doodles and knew how to deal with emotions of a pet on a new environment. Highly recommended!”
“Stan and Barbara took such great care of our dog for the week. They shared daily updates and pictures which we really enjoyed. We will definitely contact them again when we need a dog sitter. Happy to have found them using Rover!”
“Emma was amazing! She was responsible, caring, and responsive. She kept us updated with pictures and messages, which made us feel completely at ease while we were away. Our dog had a fantastic time and got along wonderfully with her dog, Mac, which made the stay even better. We’re so grateful for her care and will definitely book with her again!”
“Jaylene was very friendly, communicative and accommodating of our needs from day one. Our dog had plenty of space to chill in and outside the house in addition to getting long walks with Jaylene. Highly recommend Jaylene!”
“Elaine was great with my fur baby. She has great communication and we felt very safe leaving him overnight. We will definitely use her again after we return from FL in the spring.”
“Bryan and Jacquelyn took great care of our dog Lucy. They gave us daily updates and pictures. Lucy was allowed on their couch and bed and from the pictures felt like she was very comfortable and felt right at home. We would highly recommend commend them and will book them next time a need comes up for us and if they are available.”
“Jaimie was WONDERFUL!! She gave regular updates and sent amazing pictures daily of Noodle. I was able to really enjoy my vacation knowing Noodle was being so well cared for! I highly recommend!!!”
“Stephanie took amazing care of my cat, Milo! She gave him so much love and attention, and it was clear he was happy and comfortable while I was away. She sent me lots of pictures every day, which made me feel so much better. She even made a daily chart of everything Milo did, including how he was eating and playing. I could tell she really cared about him, and I would definitely trust her to watch Milo again. I highly recommend Stephanie!”
“I’m so thankful I found Kristen! She is such a kind and caring person and instantly my pup took to her without hesitation! She answered any questions I had and gave reassurance. We were gone for a few days and missing our dog so receiving photos and seeing her happy was a great feeling/experience! Highly recommend!”
“We were very happy with the care our dog received from Raj. Our puppy is 18 months and has never been away from us until she needed boarding for 8 nights. We received photos and videos from Raj daily which was so appreciated. We could tell that our pup was being taken care of like she was their own dog. We would definitely use Raj again and very highly recommend.”
“Ronit is GREAT! Let me start with full appreciation of her taking on our last minute request. She’s been so responsive and understanding the whole time. Dawkins had a great time staying with her. She also provided very timely updates during our trip that was just the right frequency to comfort the owner but not disturbing our oversea trip. Cannot recommend her more!”
“Thanks again Jessica for looking after Freya everytime we are away and making sure she is happy. We feel blessed to know that Freya is having fun and we can travel guilt free 😊”
“Sharon and her family took outstanding care of our aging JRT while we travelled. She was receptive to our list of suggestions and kept in communication during our trip, sending us photos of Daisy playing and continuing normal patterns which were an assurance that all was well. We wondered if Daisy missed us at all! We would highly recommend Sharon as an outstanding dog-sitter!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Annandale
We couldn’t have been happier with the care our dog, Daisy, received! She was treated like one of the family, and it was obvious she was happy, comfortable, and well loved. Joanne took the time to meet Daisy beforehand and get to knpw her routine and doggie quirks! Knowing she was in such good hands gave us complete peace of mind. We highly Joanne and will definitely use her again!
Had a great experience with Sarah and Michael!! They were so easy to work with and provided so many pics throughout my dogs stay! You can tell they really care about your dog and want to offer the best possible stay they can. I will definitely be using them again!! Thank you both for taking such good care of Roxy ☺️
Tiffany was great! Her dog Cash was a perfect playmate for Bailey and her family, especially the 3 year old, was adorable with Bailey. The physical setup is amazing- a huge fenced in yard which connects to a fenced in wraparound deck. Lots of freedom with total safety. I will definitely use Tiffany again if we are in the area.!
If I could leave 6 stars, I would! This was our first time using Meghan and she was amazing. We planned to have her watch our dog from Wednesday to Monday for a long weekend getaway, and then a snowstorm canceled our flight and we ended up being stuck away for 4 extra days. Meghan was so helpful and offered to go buy extra food for our pup since we had only packed him the amount he originally needed, and made us feel so comfortable leaving him there for what turned out to be such a long time. She sent lots of pictures and updates and I could tell my dog was having SUCH a good time. Usually when we pick our dog up from a sitter he is crying and squealing with excitement to see us… this time when we finally picked him up, he literally tried to go back into Meghan’s house and did not want to leave. He’s been depressed ever since we brought him back home… slightly heartbreaking for us LOL but a testament to what a great time he had with Meghan!
Danielle was very friendly, accommodative, and kept us informed on Coco’s status, on a timely manner. This was the first time for Coco and Danielle made sure he had a very good experience. Danielle was always responsive to any questions. Overall, a 5-star experience.
