“Anne took wonderful care of Max for a week in November. She was so sweet with him, sent regular photos, exercised him daily, and always kept me updated. She connected quickly anytime I reached out. I felt completely at ease knowing Max was in such loving hands.”
“Amanda was awesome! She took great care of our furry one while we were on vacation. Amanda was super attentive to all of his needs. We will definitely book with Amanda again in the future!”

“Our mini goldendoodle, Evie, was well cared for by Paige and her family. Evie really enjoyed playing with the other dogs. Communication with Paige was great, too. I highly recommend her.”

“Tara has become our go-to pup sitter and we couldn’t be happier! It’s so nice having someone so warm, trusting and communicative care for your fur child. Our pup always loves spending time with Tara. Thank you, Tara!”

“Great boarding visit for my girl Sunny. Easy communication and flexible on drop off/pick up times. Got some text updates with a picture which was so nice. Thanks for taking great care of Sunny!”

“Eve was great! She and her family clearly care about the pets they sit. I received photos and updates daily about how Coco was doing and it was obvious she felt welcome and at home. Eve was flexible and accommodating about pick-up and drop-off times and made the entire process a breeze. Will definitely trust her with Coco again. Thanks Eve!”


“Mary and her family took great care of my dog Rory and provided pictures throughout the weekend. Rory was exhausted from playing with the kids, and she slept the whole next day after I picked her up. I will definitely ask Mary to watch Rory again.”

“Winnie loved her stay with Leanne's and Michael's family. I was nervous at first leaving Miss W with people she had only just met, but when I saw just how much love and attention she was getting from the 2 boys, based on the photos Leanne sent daily, I sure she was getting the greatest of care! Thank you so much Leanne. And Winnie sends thanks to the boys! She can't wait until her next stay with you.”

“I'm fortunate to have found Celina when I needed a pet sitter for the weekend! It was a pleasure meeting them, as they were kind and understanding when I expressed my concerns about Otto and leaving him in a new environment. I liked that they spend the time to get to know me and my pup before committing. Smokey is also a great pup, he's so sweet and clever and it was great watching him adapt his play with Otto. It's also clear that Celina and Smokey have a great relationship and love each other a bunch. They do great with establishing boundaries and advocating for the pups when it's needed. Celina also sent me photos of Otto's stay, which were all adorable to see! Communication was easy and simple, which I'm very appreciative of. Overall, it was a great experience working with them and I will definitely book again :)”

“We had a wonderful stay with Keasha and her son, she kept us updated on how our pup was getting on and he seemed to settle in with them with ease. Would highly recommend!”
“Robert is wonderful—such a kind person. We left our dog with him for three days and could not have been happier. Every morning, he sent us a message about how Cookie was doing, along with a video. He took great care of her. Thank you so much, Robert! I trust him completely and will absolutely leave Cookie with him again whenever we need to travel.”

“Gilbert was INCREDIBLE. A wonderful caregiver who was gracious enough to let our pup stay and care for his unexpected paw injury. 10000/10. And so many pup-dates!!! The best.”


“We were so lucky to have had found Briana. She kept us updated on how our dogs were from the day we left to the day we picked them up. Our boys were very calm and happy when they returned home. We knew they were very well cared for while in her care. Her reviews, experience, and knowledge about animals is unmatched. She’s such a pleasant person to do business with. We will definitely be her returning clients!”

“Would 100% request Anita again. I'm am touched by her care for my pups, the daily updates, and shared media. I lucked out with her😭. I'm so glad coco played well with her dog 😍”

“Natalia was great with our boxer. She had so much fun playing with her Corgi and came home happy and tired (always a good sign!). Natalia sent lots of pictures and updates, which we really appreciated. It was clear our girl was well cared for and getting plenty of attention. Would absolutely recommend her and would definitely book again.”

“Isabel is so caring and kind. She constantly sends updates and pictures. My dog has separation anxiety and does so well when visiting with her. I highly recommend her!!”

Barrington dog parents share their Rover experiences
Paige is amazing! She is beyond accommodating and so easy to work with. As hard as it is to leave our pup behind, we never have a single worry knowing he’s in the best hands. He always has the best time with her dogs and her wonderful family. We’re so grateful to have found someone we completely trust. Highly, highly recommend!

We are so glad we found Geof! Gracie’s favorite place is home…. But we weren’t worried at all while she stayed with Geof for the week. Geof and his wife made sure Gracie felt right at home. We appreciated the daily photos and check-ins and appreciate how you really care about your doggy guests. Thank you!

We had a wonderful experience with Anne. She looked after Jax well and truly treated him like one of her own. She kept us updated with regular photos, which helped us feel reassured and close to him while we were away. It was clear that Jax was happy and received good care.

As always, Theo was so obviously loved and happy to be with his second family for a 5 night stay. When we arrived for drop off, he was excited and anxious to run inside to say hello. When we left, he was hesitant and looking over his shoulder hoping Andrea and family would follow. Thank you again for welcoming him even in single digit weather with mounds of snow!

We received photos and updates every day. Ziggy had a lot of nice walks with so much green space and lots of places to sniff. Sol made sure Ziggy had some mental stimulation and set him up to play with his peanut butter and feeder toys. He came home happy and tired.
