“I am very thankful for Linda, her professionalism, and her genuine love of animals! Gabby had a wonderful stay and was well taken care of. We felt very content leaving her. She also took Gabby at a late notice which helped us out a ton. Thanks so much Linda! We will definitely be contacting you again.”
“Jazmin was great and Bella loved the time spent with her. I was able to take a trip without worries because Jazmin kept me updates with messages and pictures on how Bella was doing. This was the second time Jazmin took care of Bella and will definitely continue to request with her in the future”
“Dana is amazing!!!! I am very grateful that she agreed to take care of my elderly dog that required special care. She is very professional, warm and caring. I couldn't be more lucky to have her staying with my dog for last 4 days. If I could give 6 stars I would!”
“Took great care of my dog and provided daily updates. Was very flexible with instructions for taking care of my dog. I highly recommend and would reach out to him again for future dog sitting needs.”
“Nicole and Jeff were great as always. My dog really enjoyed being with them as if they were his own family - this was my second time boarding my dog with them. My pup was very happy being there. In fact he was a bit sad leaving their house when I went to pick him up.”
“Shirley has taken care of Ripley several times, and she has formed a genuine relationship with our little boy. The photos she sends every day as well as her comments show that Ripley enjoys staying with her. We have full trust and confidence in Shirley as the best person for Ripley when we are out of town. She cares for him and his well-being, physically and emotionally. Thank you, Shirley! Dagmar and Mohsin”
“Ashley was an amazing host, I was nervous at first because I hardly ever leave rono for more than a day or two, but that quickly went away. As soon as Ashley introduced herself to rono I knew I had nothing to worry about. She also sent photos and videos everyday to ensure he was having a pleasant stay. I would not hesitate on booking again.”
“Many thanks to Phyllis and her husband for taking great care of our two dogs. They are great — very responsive, professional and loving! We look forward to seeing them at the end of the month when we are at a wedding!”

“We really appreciate Matt and Michelle taking such good care of Lucky for us during our wedding and honeymoon trip. They provided frequent updates and photos, we could tell Lucky became a part of their family and felt comfortable. Would absolutely book again!”
“Traci was wonderful! She took amazing care of my 8 month-old Bernese mountain dog, who can be a handful! Her family and dog Charlie were great with her. She kept me updated with adorable pictures daily. My mind was totally at ease during our hectic week. Thank you so much Traci! We will be back :)”
“Sarah was great. She took very good care of my dog and cat and kept me updated with photos and recaps of their activities. She obviously loves animals and I felt my boys were very safe in her care--I recommend her highly.”
“Frances did a wonderful job taking care of my 2 dogs. She gave frequent updates and pictures/videos, and I could tell my girls were having a great time with her. She took them to the park, on walks, and gave them loving attention throughout their stay. Frances was even flexible to adjust her schedule to accommodate our last-minute booking request. I highly recommend her and we will definitely be willing to book with her in the future!”
“Heather ended up taking care of Dempsey an extra day after our flight back to Chicago was cancelled. She was quick to respond and helped make a stressful situation a little easier to manage. She took great care of Demps while we were out of town. Thank you!!”
“I couldn't be happier with how things went leaving Dolce with Christina and her family. I have boarded my dog at kennels before and have always had some issue when I returned, not this time. I could tell she was happy and felt at home with Christina and her family. Would highly recommend Christina to anyone.”
“Kim and her family are the best! She gave updates and sent many pictures! Bailey was so happy and couldn’t wait to spend time with Kim! She even gave Bailey a Christmas gift! We will always book with Kim!”
About: I will make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and taken care of by being their companion for their stay as long as you need! I’m currently working part time which gives me a lot of time to take love and take care of your pet through out their stay. I have a large fenced yard for your pet to play in! I have crates available as well if needed. I have an elder dog to keep your pet company as well.
“This was our second time boarding with Belle and she’s the best! Super happy with how she takes care of our pup, he is always so happy. She sends tons of photos and has great communication”

We went outside the country for a bit over two weeks and left our Leo with Lynn, and we couldn’t be happier and more appreciative of her. It is a huge stress for everyone, of course, and we were still so calm and knew that Leo was in great hands. Huge thanks to Lynn, as always!
So grateful to have found elizabeth via rover. She was so good with my pup ella and expressed how happy she would be to watch her again. Nothing makes me feel as comforted about a sitter then knowing they genuinely love and care about your pups too. Elizabeth is very evidently a dog lover and an amazing sitter. She even did a little Christmas photo shoot for my pup (how cute). Grateful to have found someone I can trust with my pup.
I would highly recommend Danielle to take care of your pet. I was very nervous about boarding my dog, since I have never boarded a pet before. She was very accommodating to all of my dog’s specific needs. She also had a spacious home and a big beautiful backyard for my dog to enjoy. I believe she even spoiled my dog by letting my dog make herself at home on Daniel’s couch to sleep at night. Which I really appreciated Danielle is also great about sending pictures and lengthy updates. I would definitely board my dog with Danielle again as needed. I was able to enjoy my two week vacation, because I knew that my dog instantly liked Danielle and her home at our initial Meet and Greet. Like I said before, she is not only a nice person, but met all of my dog’s needs. Looking forward to boarding my dog again with Danielle in the future.
Our Doberman Miley spent an entire week at their home.They have a beautiful home with a large fenced in yard and three dogs that Miley had a blast playing with all week.I received daily updates and photos which made us less feel at ease as it looked as though she was happy and enjoying her temporary family.They took great care of her and I would highly recommend them as a sitter!
Zoe had great time with amazing family. I am so happy I was able to connect and find them through Rover. I was updated daily how Zoe was doing and also received pictures. We felt very comfortable to leave Zoe because we knew she will be well taken care of and loved. For future travels we will definitely reach out to them again.
