Barrington dog parents share their Rover experiences
Melanie and her family were absolutely wonderful with my very timid dog, Skye. This was Skye’s first Rover experience, and she was so well taken care of, understood, and supported. Melanie and her family really know and love dogs. Melanie was amazing to work with, and I’m very grateful for the empowering experience for Skye.

Arpita was an amazing dog-sitter for our 2 dogs! One of our dogs is 15 years old and Arpita gave her extra attention and even hand-fed her when she wouldn't eat! We've never had to do this before and it worked!!! Both dogs got along very well with her own dog. She sent a lot of pics and updates throughout their stay to let us know how well they were adjusting to their new environment! She replied very quickly to any questions I asked throughout the process; from before the booking through their stay. Very flexible with drop-off and pickup times. It was nice to have a worry-free get away! We will definitely have our dogs stay with her again!

Kelly is phenomenal about communicating. She always responds promptly and provides updates and photos about your pet. Our dogs were very happy there! They had a fantastic time and were well taken care of! Kelly is extremely flexible and will alter care instructions to give your pet the best experience. We highly recommend her!
