“I have never had better place to leave my sweet Apollo, he had an excellent time! Kelsey & Conor were sending updates and images constantly. I would highly recommend them!”
“My dog Pinto can be challenging and this has kept me from getting weekends away where I cannot bring her. Despite Pinto's difficulty with other pets and being tough to walk, Maryori did an amazing job. She stayed in touch all weekend and sent beautiful pictures of her and Pinto out and about so that I felt reassured and able to enjoy my time away!”
“Alexandra and family are always wonderful to my baby boy! But this time they go above and beyond! We left for a week. And unfortunately, he ran out of food. Alexandra and family cooked him homemade food, like I did with him! Just exceptional!!!”
“Kevin came through for us once again. He’s a life saver when we need someone to look after Tucker. Tuck loves getting to visit his buddy Zeke and knowing we’re leaving our baby with someone who genuinely loves and cares for our dog as one of his own is such a stress relief.”
“Annette was wonderful to work with . Easy to communicate with around planning drop off and pick up . My favorite part was the videos she posted of my dogs . I was so worried they would be sad and missing me but they looked happy running around in the yard and taking naps on the couch . I feel safe leaving my dog babies with her . highly recommend!”
“Did a great job to make my dogs feel comfortable and at home. One is kinda skiddish but he warmed up immediately. Would recommend to others and book again for sure.”
“jennifer and family did a fantastic job taking care of our dogs - very communicative and we were able to enjoy our vacation knowing our dogs are in excellent hands”
“Laura was great from the meet and greet to the updates with pictures while I was away. She even picked up and dropped off my dog when she didn't have to do that. Stop searching and message Laura now!”
“This was my first time using Rover for pet sitting and Nicole couldn’t have been a better choice! She is well experienced with a wide range of dogs and my dog was immediately comfortable with her. She kept me updated and took great care of my pup. Thanks Nicole!”
“Christina and her family are the best. The communication throughout the whole weekend that they watched our Auggie Was great He had so much fun that when we went to pick him up he didn't want to come home he wanted to stay and keep playing. I would recommend Christina to anyone that wants the best care for their pups.”
“Felix was great with my dog nova. They made sure she was comfortable with the other animals in the house and stayed in communication throughout my trip. I have so many great photos from their walks and hanging out in the house. Felix is my first choice when I comes to Philly rovers”
“OMG! Alyssa and Marcus were amazing!!! It was Sam's first time being away from home. I was super nervous because he can get a little anxious and I didn't know how he would adjust to being away from home. We thought about it over some time and Alyssa and Marcus were able to accomodate our plans last minute. Before the reservation was even finalized, they were so helpful and reassuring. They kept me updated throughout his stay with so many pictures and reassurances. It really put my mind at ease. Sam had such a good time with Zara, Alyssa, and Marcus...I think he was upset he had to leave! I can't imagine sending him anywhere else. I definitely weill be booking with them again.”
“I would not hesitate to recommend Tony and his excellent care the next time you need to board your smallest family member. Our Molly, who is in her 14th year, had just started to display some cognitive dysfunction as well as what we perceived as sadness in the loss of her best buddy, her brother from the same litter. Tony was very attentive and observant of Molly's behavior as she tried to adjust to her new surroundings. At times she did need some extra care due to her confusion or anxiety of her situation which Tony lovingly provided, all the while making sure that we were receiving videos and feedback as to her experience.”
“Tamikia was great! She sent regular pictures and video updates and let me know how Hazel was doing the whole time. It was a big load off my mind knowing my pup was well taken care of. Book Tamikia today!”
“Bryce was available on short notice and remained responsive over DMs throughout our interactions. I got lots of photos and updates on Wallace during his stay. I would recommend anyone to place their pet in Bryce's cade.”
About: Attention to detail. Lots of love to give with kids grown and departed. We believe your animals are just as important as our friends and family. We work from home and have a small havanese dog as well as a small cat. Caring for another pup or two would be no problem at all! We have a fully fenced in back yard. A spacious home that is already dog friendly. And a very safe and beautiful neighborhood. Must be cat friendly. Lots of love and attention to give.
“It was my first time leaving my dog anywhere I was nervous but Hali was amazing with my pup Leyla. Leyla could get very anxious when she’s around people that she doesn’t know and Hali made her feel welcome. The communication was wonderful she provided pictures at all time. Definitely will use Hali again to dog sit my Leyla.”
“It was such a blessing to have found Katie to take care of our pup. This was Leo's first time being cared for by someone who is not a member of our immediate family, so I wasn't sure how he would handle his visit. But I'm happy to say, it was a smooth and stress-free experience for us all. Thank you Katie, for taking care of Leo!!”
“Nicole is very professional and communicative and we are already booking her to board our dogs with again. We received updates at least once a day. It’s clear that she and her family provide a safe and happy space for our pups. Nicole has ample experience and will work with you from booking through pick up to make sure you and your pups are at ease.”
Barrington pet parents share their Rover experiences
Jenny watched our Theo again for a 10 day vacation. She and her family gave him great care and attention, especially so when Theo had an unexpected vet emergency. Jenny stayed in constant contact with me throughout and it was so comforting to know he was with her and her family getting all the love he wanted. I will definitely be using Jenny again.
Lindsey is truly the best when it comes to taking care of my Guinness! I can’t thank her enough for being able to accommodate my last minute schedule updates and additional time requests. I know he is getting the attention and exercise he deserves. I would highly recommend for any of your short or long term services.
Nikki is the best! She was immediately so understanding, open to learning, and accommodating to all of my dog’s quirks and needs, which made me feel much more comfortable boarding him for a few days. Alfie was definitely in great hands and we will be reaching out for future boarding needs! Thank you so much Nikki! 😊
Victoria did an outstanding job caring for my dog, Ali, while I was away on a 7-day business trip. She consistently shared photos, which put me at ease and reassured me that Ali was in great hands. When I dropped him off, he was nervous and anxious, but by the time I returned, it was clear he had formed a strong bond with Victoria—he followed her around everywhere! I wholeheartedly recommend Victoria without hesitation.
