“Anner did an amazing job with my dog Leo. Updates and responses were quick and consistent. The enviroment is loving and nuturing. My dog Leo loved playing in the fenced in backyard. I would definitely use Anner again as well as recommend Anner to other friends and colleagues.”

“We are happy our dog Cassius felt comfortable with Juan’s family. Cassius had the opportunity to play with other friendly dogs and seemed happy. Juan provided photos of our dog during boarding stay. We trust and feel comfortable leaving Cassius with family again in the future. Thank you so much!”

“Chrissy will definitely stay with Melissa and Christian again. They sent lots of updates and pictures, we knew she was in good hands her entire stay. Thank you both!”

“Angela watched my senior pit bull for 5 nights and was amazing! She communicated daily with photos and updates and took wonderful care of my sweet Rosie. I would recommend her to anyone looking for an engaged caregiver. I will definitely leave Rosie with her again next time I leave town.”
“Our boy has a great time with Cristina! He loves playing in the yard and snuggling up with some blankets at her place. She’s super communicative and takes amazing pictures of him. Highly recommend!”

“Karen is a wonderful dog sitter, she gave our baby so much love and attention. She followed her schedule and it looked like she was right at home! She communicated throughout the days and took so many excellent pictures. Roxy misses her already!!”

“Carrigan was very easy to deal with and communicated clearly. My dog seemed to have had a good time at their sleep over. I would definitely have her take care of Selena again.”

“We had such a wonderful experience boarding our miniature dachshund, Bailey! From the moment we dropped her off, it was clear she was in great hands. Jon took amazing care of her and we are really impressed with his knowledge and attention to detail. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Bailey was safe, happy, and well cared for while we were away. We could tell he was treated like family. We’ll absolutely be booking with Jon again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and experienced dog boarder!”

“Excellent. Will hire Ariel again. Pleasant and capable, she followed all care instructions to a tee for my 17 yr old dog. Responsive to all communications and kept me up to date on his well being, which I'm skitzo about because of his age.”

“Tina watched our dog for 4 days and went above and beyond. She was extremely attentive to our dog’s needs and sent plenty of pictures of how well everything was going. We will absolutely book again for our next trip. Thank you Tina!”

“Justin appears to be an excellent pet caretaker. He is dependable and efficient. He was readily available to accommodate my schedule on short notice. His rates are reasonable for the services he provides. Thanks Justin!”

“Melissa is a thoughtful and caring dog-sitter. She told me she loves dogs and it show in all her actions when she dog sat my labradoodle. She read him very well and met his emotional needs.”

“Margaret was wonderful! From the moment I reached out she was on top of her communications and was very helpful with making us feel at ease with boarding our puppy. She provided a checklist for his stay which was extremely helpful and she answered all the quesitons we had in a timely manner. While our puppy was at her house, she checked in daily and sent photos which we greatly appreciated. Margaret also went the extra mile and made recommendations for useful training tips and tools for our puppy. We will be boarding our puppy again with her in a few weeks!”

“Like many of us, my Ziggy is like my child. So when I have to leave town, I always try to bring him. This time, I couldn’t, and was worried about who would care for him while I was on vacation…until I met Monika. Monika is absolutely lovely and cared for Ziggy like she would her own dog. Ziggy felt like he was part of her family. To be honest, I don’t think he really missed me at all lol. When Ziggy came home, it was obvious he had a great stay with her. Monika sent pictures every day and let me know that Ziggy was having a great time. There’s nobody else I’ll leave my dog with!! Thank you so much Monika!!”

About: Since I was ~12, my neighbors would always bring their dogs for me to watch/walk while they were on vacation. More recently, I have also walked friends and neighbors dogs while they are at work (I work remote). I work remote in a flexible job, so I’m able to give lots of attention to your dog. I can walk them 4+ times per day depending on your needs, I live right near grass if they only want to go out to pee, and I am a 1 min walk from a small dog park if they love to run off leash. I live in an apartment with my own dog, so I always make sure everything is pet friendly - no harmful cleaning chemicals, air filters, only dog treats. I even have a reverse osmosis water filter to give your doggo luxury water :)
About: I’ve walked dogs and pet-sat for neighbors, friends, and family. I’ve cared for two dogs and a cat of my own. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, and playtime, and I genuinely love spending time with animals. I’m happy to follow any special instructions or routines to keep pets safe and happy. I’m pretty much free most days since I only work part-time some afternoons. That means I have lots of time to hang out with pets, whether it’s for walks, playtime, or just sitting with them while you’re away. I’m flexible and can usually work around your schedule, so if you need help last-minute or regularly, just let me know. I have a big house with plenty of space for pets to relax and feel comfortable. There’s a fenced yard where they can safely play and explore without any worries. My home is on a quiet dead-end street, which makes for peaceful, low-stress walks nearby, and I’m also really close to a park for longer walks and fresh air. I already keep dog food on hand for my own dog, so feeding is easy to manage. I have a friendly dog who’s used to other animals, and if your dog needs some quiet time, I can crate them safely as well. I always follow each pet’s routine and make sure they get lots of attention.
“Katherine was great! Start to finish. Very accommodating, She really put these first time boarders at ease, this continued throughout our trip with her sending daily updates & pics! Will definitely be using her again!”

“Consuelo and family take such great care - we booked for 3 different times in the week. and yes, our puppy keeps asking, "When are we going back?" Highly recommend!!!”

“Sydney was absolutely fantastic while watching Bella for five days. Sydney provided regular updates, asked helpful questions, and was incredibly accommodating and helpful when dealing with unexpected issues at the end of my trip. It was also clear that Bella really loved her. I could not say enough nice things about Sydney and would enthusiastically recommend her!”

Cos Cob pet parents share their Rover experiences
Kevin was enthusiastic & held the reins well, in acting as a surrogate for me, in the care of my lil Pup, who I adore! When I picked him up from his overnight stay… he returned happy, healthy & safe & sound! I also loved the pics he sent me. If needed again in the future, Kevin would be my “go to” caretaker for my Pup!

Rebecca and her husband were great! I had to book them last minute for a wedding weekend where we had a sitter fall through. From the beginning she assured me that they would take good care of our dogs! We have a puppy Duke and a rescue hazy. Both come with a big personality and it was no sweat to them. They were communicative, responsive and exceeded our expectations. We are not from the area but highly highly recommend anyone who is to book with them! When we come back to visit we will for sure be using them again!

Stefanie was amazing - kind, patient and understanding with our anxious pup's first boarding experience ever, and a great communicator. She and her human and four legged family members welcomed our pup with open arms and helped put our mind at ease that our pup was in great hands. Would definitely recommend and we'd definitely book with her again!!
