“My dog Pinto can be challenging and this has kept me from getting weekends away where I cannot bring her. Despite Pinto's difficulty with other pets and being tough to walk, Maryori did an amazing job. She stayed in touch all weekend and sent beautiful pictures of her and Pinto out and about so that I felt reassured and able to enjoy my time away!”
“My girls had the best time they looked at home I was so worried about leaving them because I had never left them before but my heart was at peace with all the videos and pictures I received they were loved on and truly cared for and they will be returning. Ps THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR TAKING GOOD CARE OF MY GIRLS 💕”
“Christina and her family provided Tootsie with exceptional care. Despite being out of town with limited cell service, Christina still sent updates. Her patience and love was greatly appreciated. This has been our first successful rover experience with a honest host who only accepted one client at a time. Tootsie was happy and has been napping peacefully since returning home. THANK YOU!! Would highly recommend to others!”
“I had a 10/10 experience with Rebecca! She was incredibly welcoming and kind to my standard poodle Sasha, who can be standoffish with new people at times, but seemed to have fully made herself at home, looking very comfortable and content in practically every photo I saw. Sasha definitely has some quirks and fears, but Rebecca was very patient and generous with her space and time to make Sasha feel safe. Would definitely book again!”
“Emeline was an amazing sitter! We booked her last minute for a 7 day long stay and she was great at responding and putting our nerves at ease. She had CONSTANT communication and sent photos and videos of the dogs. Can’t thank her enough!”
“Christiana and her family was very good for my dog. She kept me updated through out my absent and in the end I find my dog in good shape, happy and healthy.”
“Pretzel really seemed to enjoy her stay with Danielle and Jones, (Danielle's golden retriever). Danielle was very prompt in her communications and flexible when we asked about possible changes to our pick up and drop off times. She sent pictures of Pretzel each day and kept us updated on how her behavior was throughout the stay. We will definitely be boarding with Danielle again soon!”
“Our pup had a great daycare day with Kathleen. She played in the yard, went for a walk, and got plenty of tummy rubs. Kathleen was so friendly, genuinely likes dogs, and was extremely communicative before and during the daycare day”
“Katherine, is simply the best!! No wonder she is booked constantly. From the moment I left her home I was at ease knowing my Seymour was well taken care of. Katherine constantly updated me and sent me photos which I love cause I love pictures of my dog! She has a huge yard for my buddy to run around in and Katherine and her husband seem like they just love animals and care tremendously for their well being!”
“Kerry is AMAZING!! She took such amazing care of Poppy and sent pictures every day, she is truly amazing and will take such great care of your fur babies🥹🩷”
“Hardy is awesome and our dog really likes staying here. Hardy knows how to handle pets well so we have lots of confidence in him and trust he will take care of our pet well. Always nice that there’s a yard to play and run around so they don’t get cooped up inside.”
“i can’t say enough about how wonderful bonnie & joseph are. as soon as you meet them, you know your pet will be taken care of & then some! our dog is a very finicky eater; when she wasn’t interested in the food we brought, bonnie & joseph stepped into action, sharing their own dogs food & even feeding ours by hand first, until she eased into eating out of a bowl. that’s what i call 5 star service! this was our first time using them & we will definitely be repeat customers🥰🐶”
“Mike is amazing. Our dog Uma stayed with him for a month! We got lots off pictures and updates throughout the month which made it vacation that much more enjoyable knowing Uma was well cared for! Uma kept her appetite which tells me she was happy! Trent, Mike's dog, and Uma are great friends! Thanks Mike!”
“Mary was awesome! She and her family loved my dog as if she were their own dog. She sent plenty of updates and photos. It felt so good to know my dog was well taken care of while we were away.”
“Christin was great with our dog! She kept us updated throughout the say with how he was doing and you could tell how much she enjoyed being with him even with some of his quirks!”
“Joy was so great watching my dog this past weekend! She kept me updated with photos all weekend long - I would definitely recommend her to others. Thank you for the help!”
“So happy I went with Yulia! She kept me updated with pictures and videos, which kept my mind at ease. I had upexpected changes and she worked with me with no problem. Bentley can’t wait to go back! So happy I found a reliable dog loving caretaker for my pooch ❤️”
“Jayla is the best sitter I have ever had for Marley! I had to travel out of the country because of an unexpected issue for a month and she was ready to take care of Marley at literally a days notice and was flexible with extending the stay too! She updated me regularly with pictures and videos and she kept Marley super happy throughout the stay. Marely had never stayed away from me for so long and is usually a bit clingy but I could see that he was super happy throughout the stay from the videos Jayla shared. She trained him, groomed him and fed him as per his requirement. I was super happy with the experience and would definitely choose Jayla in the future too. Thank you so much for taking such good care of my precious boy!”
“Maya's stay with Melanie over Christmas was great. Melanie's home is very welcoming and she made every effort to make sure Maya was comfortable. Thank you for having her and I will definitely be in touch for a future stay!”
Elkins Park pet parents share their Rover experiences
We have an anxious and very clingy rescue dog, Frankie, who we couldn't take to our typical dogsitters (thanks mom and dad! 😁) during vacation. He's a 5 year old chihuahua/mini pinscher, a little dude with a lot of needs. A regular boarding facility would make him fall apart from stress with so many other animals around, so we looked for a dogsitter who would watch him for a week, with no other pets or clients. Ilana was so nice and friendly, my nervous little dog wasn't super welcoming right away as expected, but he warmed right up after a day. The meet and greet definitely helped, he was already more comfortable the day we dropped him off because he had been there and met her once before. We received multiple updates daily on how Frankie was doing, and photos and videos of play time, walks, eating, etc. Ilana stuck with Frankie's usual routine with feeding and walking which helped a lot, everything was very smooth and as normal as could be for him. He wasn't anxious when we picked him up, and he's settling back in easily. My husband and I were nervous to hire a dogsitter for the first time, but the experience was so easy, our doggy is happy, and so are we. We would 100% book again in the future! ❤️
We had such a great experience with Jojo! Thank you for making this experience easy, smooth and comprehensive with our dog Diesel, since this was his first time away from us ! Thank you for keeping us updated everyday about our dog! We will definitely book you again.!
Shanequa was wonderful with my 3 legged dog, Milo. He can't walk, but scoots around and has to be carried everywhere. I am always nervous about people losing patience with him, but Shanequa put me at ease with pictures and notes everyday. Milo was well cared by Shanequa. I will definitely use her again!
Lizzy took such great care of our big, energetic pups. She arranged a meet and greet beforehand so she could meet the dogs and they could be introduced to her home. Her fenced in back yard is every dog’s dream! She sent plenty of pictures and updates to ease our minds while we were away. Would definitely recommend Lizzy to anyone who’s looking for a home-like environment for their pups while they travel.
This was our first time using Rover. Gabriela came highly recommended by a friend whose dog she had previously cared for. We could not have been any happier or more pleased with the exceptional care she provided to our 16 1/2 yr old chihuahua. Having an older dog with poor vision and hearing impaired made us so nervous but Gabriela immediately made us feel comfortable and had such keen instincts for our pup's needs. Our dog immediately bonded with her. We received pictures and updates from Gabriela and upon picking her up also received a full report. Gabriela is such a kind and caring person, you can immediately pick up on that and it truly showed in the loving attention she gave our pup. Would not hesitate to use her again and have already booked our pups next stay with her.
You know in my selfishness..I don't want to share Kamoy .SHE IS SUPER OUTSTANDING!! She is the best of the best .I wish I could just keep her to myself but everyone needs a dog sitter..Thank you Thank you again.You are awesome. 5 stars aren't enough for the comfortably that she gives when leaving my child with her .This is my 2nd visit for Summer and Summer enjoys being there
