“Michael watched my almost 11 year old pup for a few days and he was great! He was very accommodating with adding an extra day to my already booked stay for her. As well, as being understanding when my flight was slightly delayed. Stella seemed to have a great time with her new friends!”
“Euitae was the best dog sitter I’ve ever had. Euitae was responsive and so so attentive and caring for my senior guy, Jack, taking Jack for lots of walks and adventures in the park, and even a dog café where Jack got to make new friends. I’m so incredibly grateful for Euitae and 1000% recommend him as a sitter! I can’t wait to call Euitae again, Jack had an AMAZING time.”
“Heidy is really friendly and very attentive. Patch had an amazing time with her dogs and always kept me updated with fun pictures which made me feel very reassured and confident. She cleaned his paw before going inside of the house since it was raining outside. When I picked up Patch, he was happy and tired, which indicated he had a good amount of activity and attention. I have no complaints about the service; everything was impeccable. The house looked clean and secure, and the care was very personalized.”
“Kylie and Kris are the best! My dog, Kimber, is a sweet but dog-reactive little guy. He’s stayed with Kylie and Kris twice now, most recently for 2 weeks. They’re amazing with Kimber, and he always comes home happy. They gave him lots of cuddles and play time. They also helped Kimber with his fear of other dogs by spending time outside on a park bench together. My partner and I really appreciate the daily photo and text updates and how responsive Kylie and Kris are. So glad we found them on Rover. We’ve already booked with them again for next month!”
“Zuleyka and her sister, Sheyla, took really good care of my two AKC purebred havanese dogs for four nights and five days. Zuleyka gave them both a bath, kept them clean the entire time, texted me pictures everyday, kept me updated on their walks, breakfast, water, and how they were doing overall. She was really flexible too with payments which I really appreciated. She also gave me a military discount. (Thank you.) When I finally had my two dogs, they didn't even miss me. Toby, my other dog, wanted to sleep on my bed a lot which meant she was really kind and gentle to them the entire time. I highly recommend Zuleyka and her sister Sheyla for taking care of your dogs. They also arranged for pickup and drop-off, even when the drop-off was as late at 11:30pm. (I really appreciated this.) Zuleyka and Sheyla are honest, trustworthy, dependable, kind, and hardworking. Please book your pet with them. Thank you.”
“Bridget was great. Took excellent care of Bella. We were very nervous and worried, but things worked out great. Process was smooth and no complaints.”
“Jeisson is awesome! Biggie had his first overnight stay with him and it went excellent. Jeisson was in touch sharing updates along w pics/vids. Biggie got along great with Spock and Jeisson's family as well. Highly recommended and will be using Jeisson again!”
“Hands down the best person we’ve ever dealt with! She is so sweet and attentive. Has taken such good care of our Teddy and has updated us along the way with so many pictures. Can’t recommend her enough. This is the only person we will ever deal with going forward.”
“Oliver loved staying at Ksenia's. Her place was clean and welcoming and he felt right at home. She is a great communicator and sent lots of picture updates. He can't wait to go back!”
“It was wonderful having Christina take care of Rocky. She provided timely updates and pictures throughout the day. I’m sure Rocky felt at home and enjoyed his time at Christina’s care. Highly recommend Christina!”
“Anky took wonderful care of our dog while we were away for a week. She gave him lots of attention and exercise, and sent us lots of pictures and videos of him. We 100% trust her with our dog and are so grateful to have found her!!”
About: Since I work from home, your dog won’t be left alone for long periods and will receive constant love, attention, and companionship! I’ve loved caring for dogs for as long as I can remember, and growing up with them taught me how to give every pup the best care possible. I treat every pup like family and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and right at home. 🐾❤️ I have a flexible schedule and can dedicate plenty of time to caring for your pet. I’m home for most of the day, so your dog will get lots of attention, playtime, and companionship rather than being left alone for long periods of time. I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual routine, including feeding, potty breaks, walks, and playtime. 🐾 My home is a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where pets can feel at ease. I always supervise pets closely and make sure they have a safe space to relax, play, and sleep. I follow each pet’s routine and instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, and any special needs. I also have my own friendly dog, Evee, who is used to being around other dogs. I always introduce dogs slowly and carefully and make sure they are comfortable with each other. Most importantly, I treat every pet with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own dog. 🐾❤️
“Iliana is very nice and kind both to us and our pets. She sent us pics every morning and evening and always answered any questions quickly. She even gave our dog a bath the morning that we picked him up. Highly recommend”
About: I grew up taking care of dogs, both my own and those of friends and family. I work from home full time and will give your pup all my love and attention. I am sensitive to the needs of different pups and will cater to the needs of your pup accordingly! I will treat your pup as if they were my own. I work from home full time and set my own hours so I would be very flexible to work around the needs of your pup. I can provide walks and pee breaks for your pup every few hours. I live in a townhome with plenty of space indoors and lots of greenery outside.
“Chloe is so kind and I can tell she took great care of my dog. She sent pics throughout her stay and my dog looked happy in all of them. Chloe is communicative and flexible if need be. So happy we found her!”
“Kathy was great taking care of Bianca and Lola. We boarded them at her place and felt really comfortable the whole time. She’s very attentive and pays close attention to every detail of their needs. Communication was clear and consistent, which we really appreciated. She’s also very punctual and truly dedicates her time to the dogs she’s caring for. You can tell she takes it seriously. Thanks again for taking such good care of them. Highly recommended!”

This is the second time we used Karen to watch our cat Lucky while we were on vacation. Karen does a great job, I received pictures everyday and sadly enough my cat seemed happier with her than my wife and I who treat him like a king. I feel comfortable leaving my pets with Karen because I know she will do a nice job caring for them and making sure they are safe and happy. We had a worry free vacation because we knew we can count on Karen. Jim and Yoko
Kinjal was amazing with Timmy. This is our first time leaving him with someone other than family so we were a bit worried. After the inital meetup, talking with Kinjal, and seeing where he would be staying, my worries started to fade. During the boarding, Kinjal communicated daily with photo and video updates and frequently asked questions about Timmy in order to provide the best care of him. We will definitely go with Kinjal again. Highly recommended!
If I could give Sarah more than 5 stars, I would!! We are new to New Jersey and were in search of a dog sitter. Sarah met us the week before to meet our girl, Cici, and it was a perfect fit immediately. Sarah maintained communication and sent cute pictures while she was dog-sitting. We felt at ease knowing that our girl was in good hands. Without a doubt, I would book Sarah again!!!!
Xunze was the best! She took such good care of my kitten and was extremely detailed oriented letting me know how she ate and pooped and acted. She was also super flexible and responsive and helped me navigate using this app. Would highly recommend and would definitely book her again. Thank you Xunze!
Jessica has been absolutely wonderful - she provided great care for our dog while we were away. Our dog is very slow to trust people but Jessica managed to gain his trust almost immediately. She took great care in providing him his medications plus his dietary food, and it was obvious that he had a great time staying with her! Thank you Jessica!
Christina truly went above and beyond with my dog Sammy, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Sammy can be very nervous around new people and takes time and patience to become comfortable, and Christina and her husband were incredibly understanding and respectful of his boundaries from the very beginning. She kept me consistently updated with photos throughout his stay, which gave me so much peace of mind, and I could tell she was genuinely paying attention to how he was feeling and adjusting her approach accordingly. She was patient, compassionate, communicative, and took all of the information I gave her about Sammy’s routine and temperament seriously. This was a big step for both Sammy and me, and Christina made the entire experience so much easier than I expected. I’m extremely grateful for the care and effort she put into making him feel safe and comfortable. I would absolutely trust her with Sammy again and highly recommend her, especially to anyone with a dog who may need a little extra patience and understanding.
I absolutely loved the service! They took such great care of Bella, and I always felt completely comfortable and confident leaving her with them. I really appreciated the constant updates and the photos they sent me, which gave me so much peace of mind. The space they have for the dogs is also perfect—comfortable, spacious, and designed for them to feel happy and at ease. I’m very grateful for how well they treated Bella and would definitely recommend them! 🐾❤️
Funda and her family took wonderful care of my 1 year old rescue pup! He had only been with us for 4 weeks and had just started to relax…but I was nervous to leave him overnight so soon. She sent pictures and updates- and I saw he was doing great- and I immediately relaxed. I saw Max was in good hands. I would absolutely leave him with her again 😎
We had a great experience all around with our booking with Lisa. Her accommodation to provide a safe and welcoming home for our dog was more than satisfactory! She is a professional. I am hyper vigilant when it comes to my dog, and Lisa addressed and reassured me of my every concern. There was an immediate connection between our dog, Lisa, and her family. I highly recommend Lisa for the excellent service that she provides!
Katherine took fantastic care of our two pups! This was our first time boarding with her, so naturally a bit nervous, but almost immediately after dropping off we started getting updates about the dogs. Photos and videos, showing happy and well-cared for dogs with wagging tails! Thanks so much for taking such good care of our fur babies and putting us at ease!
