“Sara was an amazing sitter! From day one, she provided excellent communication and was very responsive to my questions. During the trip, she sent several updates and pictures, so I knew that my pup was well cared for. In some of those pictures, my pup did things that she'd do at our house, so i knew that Sara treated her as a family member.”

Without pause, Isabella took him to the vet to get him started on his insulin and. Managed his overactive bladder. If it wasn’t for Isabella, we would have had to come home early. I’m not saying take advantage lol. But I am saying your dog will be in good hands with Isabella!”

“Karishma did an excellent job taking care of our puppy. This was the first time we had left our dog alone overnight, and Karishma put us at ease with her demeanor and was great about sending photos, videos and texts about how she was doing. When I came to pick her up, she had everything packed up for us and ready to go.”
“Marcia was great! She kept us updated with photos every day and was always quick to respond to any messages we sent. Our two dogs came home tired and happy, which is always a sign of a good stay. Would not hesitate to have them stay with her again. Thank you so much!”
“I will 100% be using Rutba again. She sent me photo updates of my dog each day and kept me updated as much as needed. I have never used Rover or an overnight sitter besides an actual boarder and I don't see myself going back. Rutba was amazing! Thank you for taking such amazing care of my baby!”

“Ashley went above and beyond to take care of my dog. She was flexible with pick up and drop off. She made sure he had adequate air conditioning during a heat wave. She went to great lengths to give him his medications. And she even gave him a bath before returning him to me. She is knowledgeable and caring. I would definitely recommend her!”
“Alicia is awesome! She took excellent care of my dog while I went out of town. My dog fit right into Alicia’s family and had a great time during her overnight stay. Alicia is responsive and easy to communicate with. Her home is perfectly set up to welcome a dog and mine certainly made herself at home right away. We had a great experience and will definitely be reaching out again!”
“Caroline was amazing with our pup! Not only was she able to fit us in last minute when we were in a pinch, but she made my pup feel so at home in her home while we were out of town. Not having to worry about your pup while you’re out of town because you know they are being cared for and loved by someone makes it so much easier to go away.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - East Islip
Joanne was caring, conscientious and professional. This was our first booking with her, and she thoughtfully sent many photos with updates on how our boy was adapting to this new environment. He had previously been boarded only with his breeder. He was fine, happy and well taken care of. We would gladly book with her again.
Stephanie was an amazing sitter, I will be rebooking for many times to come. She is communicative and cared for my dog so well. My dog was with her for two whole weeks and I couldn’t believe how clean she still was when I picked her up! Everything I left her with was returned in the same condition.
Gerald was absolutely wonderful with our rescue dog, Harley, who can often be nervous and anxious with a sitter but seemed to feel right at home with him. Gerald was kind, patient, and attentive to Harley’s needs and was excellent about communicating with us throughout her stay. We would most certainly use him again and highly recommend him!
This was our first time leaving Finn with anyone outside of family or our usual sitter. Sandy was so responsive, provided a comfortable and safe environment for the dogs, and you could tell she really cares for the dogs! I would highly recommend her for anyone considering boarding with Rover.
I couldn’t be happier with the incredible care my dog received! From the moment I dropped him off, I felt completely at ease knowing he was in the hands of someone who truly loves animals. She’s adamant about maintaining your pets’ normal schedule. To say she is accommodating would be an understatement. The daily updates, photos, and genuine attention made all the difference. My dog came home happy, relaxed, and clearly adored. This was above and beyond anything I expected. If you’re looking for someone who treats your dog like family, look no further.
Freedom was a huge help when we had to book at the last minute due to a family emergency. They were very nice to Cleo and accommodated her food needs and energy level. They also made a very cute portrait of Cleo and gifted her a bandana, which she is still wearing and loving. I highly recommend Freedom to others looking for a sitter.
We had an excellent experience with Jennifer. She was extremely loving to our dog and treated him as if he was her own. She sent regular updates and photos. The dog seemed extremely comfortable in her home. I would recommend Jennifer to anyone who wants peace of mind.
