“My husky girl Momo boarded two nights with Sofiya. She sends me greetings with pictures every morning, and updates, videos during the day. I can tell Momo had a lot of fun with her family. Really appreciate for all the love, care, and the bath that she gave to Momo. Will definitely come back and boarded with her again.🥰”



“My fur babies have stayed in Rachel's home many times. Their stay has been from one night to two weeks. Rachel is so kind, calm, and accommodating. They love seeing her every single time. She sends photos of them daily and gives me updates but she also asks how I am doing. Which I feel is so kind. When told in advance she is flexible with pick-up and drop-off times. She loves your dogs as if they are her own. She has an amazing family too.”


“Sophia was amazing! We were very nervous about leaving our Frenchie with a stranger - it's been several years since we left him overnight with anyone, let alone 6 nights. But Drax loved her and her family! We received updates multiple times per day, including a few music videos of him walking, playing, and getting massages 😁 He was very well taken care of. We definitely recommend Sophia and would book with her again in a second!”


“Sabrina is a wonderful pet sitter. Sushi was so happy to see her and her family again. She is very responsive and so kind with our baby. I definitely recommend her and we will ask her again to take care our baby dog.”


“Pissamas is very great with our Dog, She loves and spends good play time with dogs. Sends regular updates. Would definitely book her again. Our dog loves her and feels comfortable around her.”


“I am very thankful for Trinh, he allowed my boyfriend and I to do a meet & great which helped us feel a lot more comfortable! He did end up dogsitting & was great with taking my dog out on walks & he was also great at updating me with photos! I will definitely book again. Thanks Trinh!”


“We had such a wonderful experience with Megha and his family! They are extremely responsive and communicative, and they clearly love dogs. We received tons of photos and videos, which made us feel at ease the whole time. They were very thorough, took our dog on plenty of walks, and gave her lots of attention. Truly a wonderful family of dog lovers. Don’t look any further, we’ll definitely book with them every time again!”


“Lanie and her family were extremely welcoming of our pup and he had a great time. Lanie provided regular updates and kept us at ease knowing Munchkin was happy.”


“We couldn’t have found a more loving and caring long-term home for our two pups while we prepared our house for sale. Nikhila and her husband gave them more attention than we could ever manage. She’s a bit of a “dog-whisperer”, and with the assistance of their own two sweet doggos, helped our normally anti-social pooches to better socialize with other furry friends. Nikhila regularly kept us up to date with daily photos and videos. We highly recommend Nikhila and family for short or long-term care for your loved ones. She genuinely cares for her furry guests as if they were her own.”


“Kim is an amazing sitter! He has watched Mila on several occasions, and she always returns to me happy, healthy and sleepy! Kim is very trustworthy, and is very communicative especially with providing updates throughout the stay. I’d recommend him to anyone!”


About: I learned dog/cat care from my grandmother. She taught me her special side of respecting and caring the animals no matter what kind. I have had a dog for 14 years of my life, his name was Panda. I am very excited to board dogs in my home and give them a healthy and playful environment. I am also excited to take them on long walks. I volunteered at Aurora Animal Shelter for 2 years and learnt to give behavioural training for kittens/cats. I fostered more than 6 cats apart from my own 2 cats for the past 1 year. I currently work 3 days a week from office, and my husband works remote. He is an animal lover too and loves to spend time with my cats at home. I spend time with my cats early morning and late night when they are fully active and excited to play. I take them on a walk (on leash) once a week. They enjoy some time out of home. I would like to give your pet any special attention that is needed. I will accommodate my schedule according to your pet's demands. I promise to give them a happy and peaceful environment.

“Bunny had such a great time with Sandy, I know she was so well taken care of. She was so communicative and sent photos/videos during Bunny's stay. We will book again for their next trip”


“Needed a holiday weekend drop off on short notice. Tracy and Vincent responded quickly and arranged a meet up the next day. They took very good care of my dog Muffin and share with us some pictures or video every day. Definitely recommend!”


“Mình treated Harley like he was her own, and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She sent daily updates, including activities, meals, and plenty of adorable photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear Harley felt right at home with her. I’m so grateful for the care and love she showed him—highly recommend!”


“I left my dog with Alyn for two weeks. He was very responsive and nice. He sent me several pictures and videos during the time. My dog was very happy there and I definitely recommend him for dog sitting.”


“I felt so safe and comfortable leaving my cat with Jen. She was so incredibly knowledgeable, passionate, and accommodating. Worked well with my schedule, including some last minute scheduling changes. She was so reassuring and it was so clear to me that my cat had such a happy and pleasant experience. I will definitely be booking with Jen in the future. Her regular updates, thoroughness, attention to detail, empathy, and experience made me feel relaxed during my trip, knowing that my cat was in good hands. 10/10 would absolutely recommend.”

“Laura is so thoughtful with updates during my dogs day at her place. She continually gave me reassurance and alerted me of any changes. Her sweet dog loves my baby, walks were given, and always communicated well. Thank god for sitters like her. This was my very first time using Rover, and I must say my experience has been so wonderful. It’s so nice that I can work at ease and know my baby is looked after.”


“Highly recommend! Sharon was great from the start - she took the time to ask good questions and really understand my dogs needs before we even met. After a meet and greet, we both agreed it was a good fit, and when boarding time came I had no worries that they would be in good care. I received photos and videos, they were super happy when I picked them up, and I already have our next dates booked. Grateful to have found Sharon and her family!”

We had such a wonderful experience with Megha and his family! They are extremely responsive and communicative, and they clearly love dogs. We received tons of photos and videos, which made us feel at ease the whole time. They were very thorough, took our dog on plenty of walks, and gave her lots of attention. Truly a wonderful family of dog lovers. Don’t look any further, we’ll definitely book with them every time again!

We left our dog with Jeanne for a couple of days and had such a great experience. She was absolutely lovely and made sure to send us regular updates, which gave us complete peace of mind. Our pup was clearly well cared for and happy. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!

Liliana took such great care of my Monte! It was my first time using Rover and I had met with a few dog sitters, and determined Liliana was the right fit to care for my pup while I was gone. She was super responsive, helpful and flexible in planning, and treated Monte as well as I would have during my time away. Multiple times a day she’d send photos and updates on Monte and listened to any questions or requests I had. I would definitely recommend Liliana as a sitter and look forward to using her services in the future.

Jung Eun and her partner were great with our dog Clyde! Clyde is a rescue and naturally very anxious and shy. However, he felt totally comfortable with Jung Eun and even snuggled with her, which is a big deal as he has a hard time opening up to new people. We did a meet n greet first, and then this trial overnight as we’ll be out of the country for 3 weeks. Thank you to Jung Eun for all the photos and videos - they definitely made me feel at ease, knowing Clyde was in good hands. He looks forward to seeing you soon :)

Did a very great job taking care of Ash. Always kept me updated throughout the day, updated me when Ash took his medication. Sent pictures throughout the day which I very much appreciated. Took him on many walks, ash loved it there. Overall such an amazing job would 100% leave ash with Jose again.

This is our very first time using Rover and we found Angelina . She is awesome , sweet and obsoletely no complains. She is very professional and communicate. We dropped our dog at her place for 10 days. She has a nice backyard for our dog to roam and the room has a full-size bed and an AC. She is flowing our instruction how to feed our dog and send us daily pictures. Our dog came home healthy and happy. We will definitely using Angelia again. Thank you Angelina ❤️❤️❤️

Michael and family took amazing care of my 5.5 month old puppy when I had to board him for 3 days. They followed his routine and lifestyle perfectly, spoiled him and gave him extra perks like “spa” relaxation downtime and extra cuddles, and also kept up with his training and worked on things that were important to me. He was safe, loved, and spoiled! They communicated with details about his day and sent super cute pictures! Also love that my pup adores Hank and is learning from him as well! Anytime they are available Michael and family will be my first choice for care. They are Awesome!

Laura is so thoughtful with updates during my dogs day at her place. She continually gave me reassurance and alerted me of any changes. Her sweet dog loves my baby, walks were given, and always communicated well. Thank god for sitters like her. This was my very first time using Rover, and I must say my experience has been so wonderful. It’s so nice that I can work at ease and know my baby is looked after.

Thank you so much for taking care of Melon. So many times in the past melon has come home whale eyed and visibly stressed. Not this time. SHE SEEMED EXTREMELY RELAXED AND HAPPY TO BE WHERE SHE WAS FOR A WEEK. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR TAKING CARE OF HER AND FOR SENDING ALL THE PHOTOS OF HER THROUGHOUT THE WEEK. WOULD WILL REBOOK AGAIN! for some reason, voice to text made all of this uppercase and I don’t feel like correcting it. I am not yelling. lol

I have had the opportunity to have Brenda and Ernesto take care of scrappy doo many times since 2022. They do an outstanding job each time, I feel very secure and confident leaving scrappy doo in their care. Thank you both for always taking such good care of my boy.

Meredith was outstanding and we will most definitely be booking her again! We were truly able to enjoy our family vacation and we knew that our dogs were getting the best care! From the moment we met her, we were confident that she was the best choice for our dogs. She took excellent care of our pups for three weeks and Meredith was amazing with communication the whole time. She sent us daily updates, photos and videos. We are so very grateful to have found Meredith and so thankful for the outstanding care she provided!
