“Our dogs had the best time! Karen and her daughter were phenomenal sitters. Our dogs had all the amenities! We were worried the dogs wouldn’t want to come home because they looked like they had so much fun. We’re excited for our dogs to go back!”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I recently had the pleasure of hiring Emily to take care of Mel, my beloved dog, while I was away. From the initial meet-and-greet to the daily updates during my trip, I was thoroughly impressed with the level of care and attention provided. Emily took the time to understand Mel's routine, preferences, and any quirks that might need special attention. It was evident that they genuinely love dogs and have a strong understanding of their needs. Every day, I received updates and photos that put my mind at ease, showcasing how happy and comfortable my pup was in their care. Not only did Emily provide regular meals and exercise, but they also engaged in fun activities and even took Mel on walks to the river walk. I could tell that my dog was getting plenty of love and attention, which is so important when you're away from home. Upon my return, Mel seemed relaxed and happy, which reassured me that I made the right choice by entrusting Emily with their care. I highly recommend Emily to anyone in need of a reliable and caring dog sitter. They exceeded my expectations and truly treated Mel as if they were their own. I will definitely be reaching out for future sitting needs! Thank you, Emily, for your outstanding service!”
“Michelle and Erika were great! They provided plenty of updates, photos and even videos during my dogs stay. They were friendly and reassuring and I will definitely use them again for future stays.”
“Angel was extremely communicative and took great care of my dog! His puppy loved cuddling with my dog and I can tell they had a lot of fun. My dog also hurt one of his paw pads playing and Angel knew the exact care to do. I felt so at ease. I would absolutely have him watch Kai again!”
“Chloe is a shy and cautious puppy. Janet sent me updates frequently during her stay. She cared about her happiness and went above and beyond to become friends with Chloe. I really appreciate her love for Chloe. I will definitely book with her again in the future. Now I can travel guilt free knowing my puppy is in good hands.”
“I highly recommend Kim. From the meet and greet, we knew Leila, our 12 year old Havanese, will be happy and safe. Kim and her kids are pet lovers. The moment we parked our car, and as soon as her kids saw Leila, they hugged and played with her, so adorable. Kim would send photos every few hours, which I appreciate. Kim lives in a safe and quiet community in Darien, she also has a decent size backyard where Leila can play. Kim also texts me for any updates. Leila loves the attention! Thanks Kim :)”
“Kyla was very accommodating and communicative with watching my dog. I appreciate her flexibility as sometimes he can be moody and other times he’s very playful. My dog enjoyed himself very much and was exhausted from all the play time when we made it home. I look downward to booking with her again in the near future.”
“Emily was very responsive and kept me up to date on how things were going with lots of pics/videos. It’s our second time booking and feel very confident our dog feels comfortable/safe with her!”
“Cooper had a wonderful time and was wonderfully tired after a day of play with Karia. Karia was super easy to coordinate care with. Will be booking again in the future.”
“Addi loved her time with Dara. She got walks and plenty of play time. Dara sent pics to keep me updated. It was my first time using Rover or anyone other than family. Highly recommend Dara.”
“Amy was AMAZING!!!!!! My dog was able to run outside, go on walks and car rides, he cuddled up on the couch. Amy gave me updates with pictures and videos, my family loved seeing how his vacation was going and we looked forward to seeing the friends he made”
“Nina was great! Flexible and communicative and sent pictures throughout Luna’s stay. We could tell Luna was comfortable with her and would happily use her again in the future.”
“Kimberly took good care of Lumi. Thank you for doing that! She is very energetic when coming back. The only suggestion is if she could send us pictures of our cat once a day which would be perfect.”
“Danielle has always been my go to sitter and she will keep being my go to sitter whenever possible! we love having thor and gigi stay at her home. we always leave knowing they are in great hands! thank you so much!”
“This is my first time using Rover and I’m happy I gave it a try. Anette and her husband took great care of Kobe, keeping me updated and frequently sending pictures, very responsive and tending to Kobe as if he were their own. I felt a peace of mind while on vacation that Kobe was in good hands. I would certainly recommend Anette and request her again:)”

This is our second time having our dog stay with Barbara. She is amazing, and we feel confident having her care for our doodle. We especially love her amazing communication, the photos ever 3+ times/day, and ease of working with her. Lindey looks forward to her next visit with Barbara!
Since our 2 dogs are seniors (18 & 15) and have special needs, we had to look for a person who understands the challenges of taking care of them. We got lucky with Angelina and how she was able to help take care of our dogs for a week while we were away. She was extremely flexible with learning what works for our dogs, and you could actually see that she cares. She sent us updates and photos throughout the day,on a daily basis, which was very much appreciated! I couldn't recommend her enough, esp if you're looking for a sitter/caregiver that understands seniors and special needs dogs.
Lauren has taken care of my dog Kylo, three times and I couldn't be happier with her care. Lauren is an amazing dog sitter and I always feel comfortable leaving Kylo with her. Since Kylo is diabetic it is especially important that he stays on his feeding schedule and receives his insulin injections on time, and Lauren is incredibly responsible and attentive to his needs. She provides multiple updates throughout the day, including pictures, detailed messages and even Wooftrax updates so I know how long his walks are. Kylo is very comfortable with her, and she does such a wonderful job of making him feel safe and cared for. I feel incredibly lucky to have found such a trustworthy and caring dog sitter for our baby. We truly appreciate everything Lauren does for our precious pup and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable, compassionate, and attentive pet sitter.
Corey took fabulous care of Steven, provided excellent communication and amusing updates, paid close attention to instructions and even brushed Steve's poodle hair. From the moment we met him at the meet-and-greet we were confident Steve would be well cared for. You can put Corey on your trusted sitter list.
Holly and her family immediately welcomed Lincoln into their home and made sure he felt comfortable during his stay. Holly sent us lots of updates and made sure we knew how our boy was doing. Would highly recommend and Lincoln hopes he can visit again. He especially loved his playtime with Holly’s pups Layla and Piper☺️
Selene took wonderful care of our dog, Peanut! She sent us daily pictures and updates, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear Peanut was happy and well cared for. We’re so grateful for her attentiveness and kindness, and we would absolutely trust her with Peanut again. Highly recommend!
Sandra was absolutely wonderful in taking care of Ellie! From our initial meeting to the final pickup, everything was seamless and stress-free. She kept us updated regularly with pictures and made sure Ellie was happy and comfortable throughout. We truly appreciate her care and attention. Thank you, Sandra—We will definitely use your service again!
