“Casta was very well cared for and I am sure she thoroughly enjoyed her stay with Andres and two other canine friends at the home. Andres kept me updated throughout the stay on how Casta was getting along and fitting in with the group. We will definitely use Andres again for future boarding.”
“Rita was great! Quick responses, frequent updates and our dog Maple and cat Olive loved her (boarded our dog and had drop-in for our cat). Olive is usually fine when we are away but it was our first long trip away from Maple and she came home happy and healthy. I would use Rita’s services again, no problem”
“Yuliia did an stellar job taking care of our little cat Zelda. We got daily pictures, where we could see our little cat very comfortable at her place, enjoying every day there. It was reassuring seeing her have such a good time, and we will definitely be requesting Yuliia to take care of Zelda if we need it again.”
“Lydia was wonderful. This is the first time I’ve ever had someone other than family or friends watch my doggy, and Lydia sensed my nervousness. But she took tons of pictures, gave me regular updates, and took good care of my little pup. I would definitely recommend and hire her again.”
“Needed a sitter last minute for my Saint Bernard Charlie for the week. Steffani and Josh were able to watch him with little notice. Within in the first couple minutes of meeting them during the meet and greet , I was very comfortable leaving Charlie with them. You can tell they genuinely care for animals. And Charlie was just as comfortable around them as well. All week they sent me videos and pictures and kept me updated. I was able to enjoy my vacation because I knew he was in good hands. They treated him like he was their own. They will be my go to sitters for any future needs and I would definitely recommend them to anyone.”
“I could tell from the first meet and greet that Nick and his family would take great care of my Cora. The daily updates that Nick sent showed Cora fitting in just like one of the family. She can be a bit of a handful but they did a great job.”
“Jordan is amazing! She took such great care of our Tucker Lee. We received updates and and photos that made us smile. Tucker Lee felt right at home! Highly recommended.”
“Marissa was fantastic with my dog! She took her on multiple walks and even to a dog park. I loved receiving pictures of all their fun adventures and cozy snuggles on the couch. Honestly, I was a little worried my dog might not want to come back home with us! 😂”
“Carolyn and Jonathan were amazing sitters for my dog Odie (big boy with separation anxiety issues). They are very caring and I felt very comfortable entrusting them with watching a part of my family. Both of them took the time to understand any special needs he may need and made his stay very easy. You do not have to worry about anything if you book them. I will be requesting their services again for sure.”
“Our experience with Brian has been wonderful from the start. He was very responsive, and took the time to really understand Scotty’s schedule and needs. Scotty had a wonderful time with his family, they provided a very warm & caring home for our baby while we were away. Scotty also had a great time bonding with Brian’s dogs Bruno and Lily, and they are now friends for life! Brain will definitely be our first choice going forward.”
About: I have been dogsitting for about 4 years now, having experience with dogs big and small, old and young. I care deeply about your pet’s wellbeing and having fun along the way. I am available for pet care at the moment, I do work a part time job as well. I am also pregnant. I can do drop ins or walks during the daytime depending on my schedule. Boarding will need a consultation. I make sure to stick to appropriate feeding times as well as make sure your pet is walked and played with regularly. I offer the best cuddles and treats as well as I enjoy getting to know your pet throughout our time together. I live in an apartment so I don’t have a private backyard, but we do have lots of communal green space.
“I was nervous to leave my puppy for the first time but Bronwen had not one but two meet ups to ease the process and while I was away sent me tons of updates and even a video! She took excellent care of my baby and I will not hesitate to take him back to her when needed.”
“Michele was great! Will most definitely book again. Her dogs were so great with mine and he has the best time! She is great, anyone looking for a great, living sitter should go to Michele :)”
“Alberta was amazing with our senior dog! She sent pictures and updates and has excellent communication. I could tell she paid close attention to our dogs moods and needs during her stay. I really appreciate Alberta and highly recommend her!”
“Elizabeth is amazing! She's extremely flexible, gives you updates on your beloved pet, and cares for them as her own. I was so nervous to leave my baby for the first time but i couldn't have left him in better hands! If you need to leave your fur baby for any reason, Elizabeth and her family is the go to 😊”
About: Let's just say I might have more energy than your pet(s). I don’t just “watch” pets—I spend quality time with them. I have the ability to match their energy. I am up for a casual walk, a nice jog, belly rubs, or a friendly game of catch. I have been a math 🧮teacher at Ridley High school for the past 18 years. I am an avid hiker 🥾 and enjoy being outside in nature! Perfect for a walk 🐕🐶. Each drop in visit is 30 minutes. The visit can include, potty breaks, feeding, playing, cleaning the litter box, administering medication, and/or a quick walk. The time is yours. Let me know your needs and we will make it happen 🐈😁! In the summer most of my days are wide open. I like to stay busy. I have a passion for being outside, fitness, and caring for pets. Why not blend them all 😁! In the clients home I will do what they ask and provide the services they require. Anything from spending quality time, to feeding, to administering medicine, to walking, games, or snuggles 🤗
“Linda is a wonderful person. I knew Milo would be well take care of the first time I met her. She updated me during our vacation of how Milo was doing and sent pictures of him playing on her farm. If she is available I will use her every time we have to be away. Milo had a great vacation himself !! Highly highly recommend Linda!!!!”
“Kimberly and her husband are such wonderful people. I was so reassured when I left my dog there during my move. They were always fast to respond to any of my questions and willing to help when travel plans were delayed. I would absolutely trust Kimberly with my dogs in the future.”

Darley Woods dog parents share their Rover experiences
Maurisa is the best dog boarding in the area. She’s kind and loving and sends lots of pictures and clearly loves and adores the pups while we take a vacation. This is the second time we’ve had the pleasure of getting her to board our two chihuahuas, and I recommend her if you’ve got precious fur babies. I especially appreciate that she used our dogs special vest that he needs to feel better when it thunders. Thanks Maurisa!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ First-Time Rover Experience – So Grateful for Leah! This was my first time using Rover, and I was initially a little apprehensive since my dogs have only ever been boarded at a facility. But after our meet and greet with Leah, I immediately felt at ease. She was warm, professional, and clearly an animal lover. While I was away, Leah sent me daily updates and pictures, which meant so much. My dogs looked happy, relaxed, and completely at home. It was clear they were comfortable and enjoying themselves, and it gave me such peace of mind. I truly appreciate the care and attention Leah gave them—it felt like they were part of her family. I will absolutely be booking with her again the next time I need boarding. Highly recommend!
Kimberly and her husband are such wonderful people. I was so reassured when I left my dog there during my move. They were always fast to respond to any of my questions and willing to help when travel plans were delayed. I would absolutely trust Kimberly with my dogs in the future.
We have used Bronwen many times to watch our small dog. Trixie runs out of the car to go see Bronwen on arrival and never looks back because she enjoys her time there so much. Bronwen lets her out in the yard, throws the ball for her, feeds her consistently, and has the perfect dog friendly house with lots of toys and windows to watch outside. She comes home tired but not exhausted. We highly recommend Bronwen.
