“This is the second time my Velcro dog has stayed with Christine ;) Christine is a great communicator and always keeps me up to date on my pet. I feel like I can relax and know my precious pooch is being taken care with Christine ❤️ when I'm out of town!”


“Sush was great. It was my fur babies first time with their family, and they are absolutely dog friendly! Welcoming, fur baby ready home & attitude, and my shy little guy fur baby and also old lady fur baby had a great stay. Pictures & updates sent when requested & throughout the stay. My fur babies seemed like part of their family while there. Will come again! Thank you!”


“Kerstyn was wonderful with Rexy, and he had a great time with the other dogs. She sent regular updates and pictures, and took him on his first real run. Will use Kerstyn again!”


“Sandra did a great job boarding coconut! She gave me statuses and pictures everyday and he got to go on walks with another dog regularly. It was a wonderful experience for me and my fur baby! Try her out!”


“Kat and Brian were terrific! They took great care of our Frenchie who loves to be snuggled and loves extra attention. She was so happy when we picked her up. We will definitely use Kat and Brian to take care of Weezy again!”


“Laurie and Richard were amazing with my older little pup with anxiety. She loved her stay with them and they catered to her needs so well. The communication and updates were wonderful!”


“I needed 5 hours of dog care for my newly rescued senior Pomeranian and I’m so grateful to have found Donna. Donna provided a calm and caring environment for my dog to feel comfortable and relaxed, and they took a 20 minute walk together. Thank you so much, Donna!”


“Mary was great without energetic young dog. She is very responsive and we loved getting the pictures of our dog having a good time with her. Thank you Mary!”


“Fantastic! They sent great pictures and it looked like our dog was having a fantastic time! They also sent good updates on her behavior and how she was doing. Will definitely be boarding with them again! Thank you for taking such good care of our girl!”


“Andy did a great job taking care of our dog, Obie. Obie got lots and lots of walks, and had fun playing with Andy's dog. Andy send lots of pics and videos, so I could see Obie having a good time. Thanks, Andy!”


“Nina continues to be awesome!! She let us know day by day how Winston was doing and anything she noticed. She takes such good care of him, and I always feel comfortable leaving him with her!!”


“This weekend was our first experience using Rover for a sitter for our pup, Maisie, and we couldn’t have asked for better than Alyce and her family to watch her! Alyce hosted us for a meet and greet beforehand to make sure that Maisie and her dog would get along, which really put our minds at ease. Over the course of her stay, we received several photos and videos of Maisie playing with the other dogs and with Alyce’s sons, and you could just tell she was having a fantastic time. She really liked the variety toys that Alyce keeps for the dogs and roaming the nice, fenced backyard! We appreciated Alyce’s consistent communication and we had no doubt that our dog was in great, responsible hands and also enjoying herself! We would definitely recommend booking with Alyce and are confident we’ll be requesting her services again in the future!”


“Katie watched our boxer mix, Sally, for a weekend while we were away at a wedding. She was super communicative and wanted to know all about Sally’s routine and how she could make her most comfortable. She had a great time and we’ll definitely be using Katie again in the future!”


“Amazing sitters! Jodee and AJ are super easy and lovely, lovely yard for my dog to play in which he doesn’t have at home. Sent pictures everyday with updates. At the end of the stay my return flight was delayed and they were willing to watch my dog an extra night—super accommodating. Highly recommend and will use them again in a heartbeat!”


“Jie was an excellent host for our dog Maya. She was very attentive to Maya, sent photos and kept in touch while we were away for a week. She has a large fenced yard which was great for Maya to be outside alot of the time. I highly recommend Jie for dog boarding and intend to board Maya there again.”


“John was fantastic. Extremely communicative, took excellent care of my senior golden that requires medications and shorter walks due to ACL surgery. 10/10 recommend booking with John and we will be using his services again.”


“Jade really enjoyed her time with Kelly! She came back very much herself and healthy without the runs (which she sometime will get from boarding and separation anxiety). It took her no time to adjust after being away from home for a week. Kelly sent atleast one update a day which was also very lovely to see 🙂.”


“We just left our dog with Sam for the first time and it was a wonderful visit! Sam and his dog Happy were wonderful hosts, very responsive and easy to communicate with. Sam sent us pictures and an update each day so we knew our dog was doing well and having fun with Happy! We will definitely use Sam again for future visits. Highly recommend!!”

“Luciana is so sweet and wonderful with my 14 yo Cavalier! As a bonus, our pups are twins of the same age and affection. We adore sweet Sophie.”


“Lauren worked with me and my very skittish old dog to keep up both very calm during his first post pandemic boarding experience. Her updates were funny and frequent. She totally gets him which isn't easy. Thank you Lauren!!”

Highland Park-Overlee Knolls dog parents share their Rover experiences
Fantastic sitters! We were gone for a long weekend and never had to wonder what our dog was up to because Jack and Julie sent us plenty of photo updates. The pictures showed that she was happy in a clean and quiet house with a yard. We’d very happily leave Z with Jack and Julie again.

This is the second time that Prisila has watched our dog. He was very excited when we pulled up to her house the second time. He clearly enjoys his time there, which gives us peace of mind!

Jodi took such great care of Lucy! We could tell Lucy bonded with her during her stay and was well rested and excited to get home!

This was our Moose’s second time staying with Mariela and the care that was provided was just as spectacular as the first time🤩 We received just the right amount of updates/pictures and felt at ease the entire time Moose was away from us. Most importantly, Moose was happy at pick-up and showed zero signs of stress. It was clear that he had a great time staying with Mariela and that he was super loved❤️

Andreas was one of, if not the best sitter we’ve ever used on Rover. Our dog is usually very shy around new people and won’t eat his meals or kind of keep to himself until he opens up but from the moment we dropped him off with Andreas, he immediately fit in so well. He was so snuggly, was eating normal and was attached at his hip. Andreas was also really great at communications with us. He sent daily photos and updates and was always asking the right questions to make sure our boy was properly taken care of. We will absolutely be using him again

Tricia is a gem. She took great care of Ol Becca dog. I particularly appreciated her straightforward handling of Becca’s gut problem while we were away - book her!

I’ve had several sitters watch my dog Lincoln. Claudia was by far the most attentive and communicative. She texted me each day and sometimes the first text I would get, would be a pic of Lincoln’s morning. They went on multiple walks a day, and she always sent me a random cute Lincoln pic. I would trust her with him for any length of time. Super accommodating, lovely to talk to, couldn’t recommend more!

Our Cocoa is so happy with Katerine and Brian. They are very responsive and reliable. We appreciate all the pics they send too. Definitely recommend!

He was very quick to respond and seemed to enjoy our dog and treat her well. He sent at least a picture every day too. Worked out great!

I had a very pleasant experience with Sheyanna. She took great care of Coco and was communicative, sent me updates , pictures and videos . Will definitely work with her again !

Kelly did a great job taking care our dog! She was super easy to communicate with and flexible when our drop off times changed a bit. Our dog had a great time and came back happy! Would definely use Kelly again.

What a wonderful family to have watch your fur babes! My girls were well taken care of & certainly had no shortage of love during their stay. Cannot recommend enough!!

We’re so grateful to Tiffany for taking such great care of our dog, Cleo! Cleo can be a handful but Tiffany communicated regularly, sent updates and photos, and handled Cleo’s quirks with kindness :) Highly recommend, especially for pets who need a little extra understanding!

This was Molly’s second time with Christy and once again, it was great! Christy is communicative and sends pictures and videos. Molly gets weird about food when left at a sitter and Christy was patient with her and kept me updated on her eating progress. Thanks, Christy!!

Courtney took excellent care of Boomer, he came back happy and in good spirits. Courtney helped us last minute when we were headed to a trip and our other plans fell through. She had clear consistent communication and took quality photos so we knew our dog was in good hands while away.

Sage was great for our very energetic dog and provided us regular updates throughout her stay. Would highly recommend.

Michael and his family were very kind and their home seemed like a great environment for our big energetic Labrador. Good communication throughout the week

Donna took great care of my dog Fluff! Her attention to detail and communication was greatly appreciated and resulted in a successful stay for Fluff. I would happily recommend Donna.

Gracie and Drew were awesome hosts! Would definitely recommend. Our dog stayed with them (and their dachshund) for 4 days while we went on a family trip. They were super communicative, easy to work with, and definite dog people. My family and I loved getting lots of photos and updates. Our dog seemed really happy during her stay. She even seemed a bit sad to say goodbye to her hosts! Thanks, Gracie and Drew, for taking such great care of Thea 🙏
