“the perfect place for a pup! my dog seemed to have the most fun time and was immediately snuggling with the family :) they made him (and myself) feel so comfortable and safe! I will definitely be coming back :)”
“Best pet sitter ever! My dog was incredibly well taken care of, even with additional medical and dietary needs. I received constant communication and pictures with updates. They treated him as if held was part of their family. I will trust Lori and Wil with my dog every time I need to leave him at home while I travel.”
“Thomas and Kelly were super communicative and were able to accommodate my request on short notice. I got daily photos updates and I can tell she was in great hands. Thank you both for taking care of Emery!”
“Robert was so wonderful to work with. He sent us plenty of updates with photos/videos, responded in a timely manner, and was able to accommodate our dogs to both his great dogs. He helped ease our minds as we went on vacation for a few days. We definitely will be working with Robert again!”
“Rosie once again has taken very good care of our little "special needs" doggie, Peanut. My husband and I could tell that Peanut was loved, cuddled, walked, and given much attention- of which we are very grateful for. Rosie is also good at giving Peanut his medicine! We highly recommend her to pet owners in need of a sitter!”
“Herman found his second home!! Colleen provided regular updates with pictures and I would recommend and use Colleen service for any future needs !!! Thank you Colleen for the excellent service!”
“Kim is responsive and friendly and sweet with my babies. She did some extra travel and pickup of meds I didn’t plan for without hesitation. Having her with my kitties gave me one less thing to worry about!”
“Kaylee is the absolute best!! She cares for our puppy weekly but had him for a very long weekend and provided some many great updates and even when our guy was anxious - she was so attentive!!! The best of the best.”
“Mary was great with Bernard. He was a happy camper when we picked up him and he was getting lots of time outside and attention - both of which he loves. She responded quickly to messages and was very flexible with pick up and drop off. There where several other dogs around and also other people. I would use Mary again!”
“Giselle and her kids took care of my Peaches well while I was out of town for 2 days. When I picked Peaches up, she wanted to stay with them longer, which indicated that she enjoyed her time with them. I will definitely leave my Peaches with them again in the future.”
“I so appreciate Kim’s care of Mia. She communicates often. This was Mia’s first time with her, and Mia’s second time away from us. She worked with her to get Mia to eat. Slowly but surely Mia started to trust her. When I picked her up, she wanted belly rubs from Kim! That’s huge! I am so very appreciative that I’ve found someone to love on her too. We’ve found our person ❤️.”
“Melissa is amazing! She kept me updated daily and even sent pictures!! I felt at ease knowing my pup was been very well taken care of. I would definitely recommend her!”
“My Nash had a tail wagging time. He had friends to play with and found a comfy place to sleep near a big window. Vicky provided regular updates and responding to any questions i had.”
“Danielle was just AWESOME! Our pup was so well taken care of and had a blast with the other pups too! Danielle gave us great updates and pictures each day that we were away. We have had a couple of sitters on Rover and Danielle is by far the best! We will definitely be booking with her from now on!*”
About: I have my own dog, and I work at dogtopia, where I watch 20+ dogs at one time. I play with the dogs and clean up after them! I'm currently working part-time, so l'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I'm available for boarding on weekends, and weekdays after 1:30pm! I have a fenced in yard and 1 friendly dog to keep your pup company! Willing to accommodate to your dogs needs if they differ from how we treat our dog.
“Donna is a great sitter! She was extremely patient in in helping Eli adjust to his new surroundings (he can be nervous in new environments) and sent regular updates and photos. When I picked him up he seemed so relaxed and happy in her home. It was obvious he had a great stay (unlike when I’ve boarded him at my vet). Her dog, Slugger, got along so well with Eli too! Donna is a kind, loving sitter who I will use again and recommend highly!”
“Agata was so wonderful with Kylo. It was a last minute booking, but she was accommodating to Kylo's needs. she was always communicating and sending pictures of Kylo's day. We felt at ease leaving Kylo with her and will definitely consider again!”
Itasca pet parents share their Rover experiences
Kim is a fantastic sitter, who is very understanding of my dog's needs. She worked with him through some behavioral issues he was having in a new environment/setting. She is extremely knowledgeable about dogs and how to care for them. Unfortunately, her care is not the right fit for my dog, but it is no reflection of the care and support that she gave him throughout his visits. I would recommend Kim to friends and family.
From the moment we met Liz we loved her positive spirit and we could tell what a dog-lover she is. We had a good feeling about how she would care for our 12-year old quirky Shiba Inu, and we weren’t wrong! Liz was amazing. She took such good care of him, following all of his routines, including daily walks. We loved her daily photo updates. We don’t often board our dog, so her updates gave us a good sense of how he was settling in and feeling at home with her, and that was a big factor in helping us to enjoy our vacation without worry for him. And Liz went above and beyond, when Sasuke was not feeling well. She let us know right away, and when symptoms didn’t improve after a day she made an appointment with our vet, took him to the appointment, and called us to join the consultation via speaker phone. Her experience working at a vet clinic showed in the way she calmly and confidently knew just what to do to take care of Sasuke and make sure he was comfortable as he recovered. We felt so happy with Liz that we’ve already scheduled her to watch Sasuke during our next vacation.
Maricela was great with our pup! We received regular updates, generally a few times a day, with photos of their daily activities, which made being away from our little guy a little easier. She was very easy with drop off and pickup, quick to communicate and took great care of Hugo. Definitely recommend!
Great first stay for Bingo. Robert was very willing to work with Bingo to make her feel part of the pack. The daily updates showed how she was enjoying her stay and making new friends. We know Bingo will be happy and well cared for when staying with Robert, Percy and Teddy.
Gracie had a wonderful time. She was very, very well taken care of. I had pictures at least twice a day that made me feel that she was so safe. She seemed happy and having a very good time and very comfortable. I will not hesitate to use Susan again if I need Gracie to be watched, they’re very nice people. I feel that I have also made new friends for life.
With very short notice, Ed was able to accommodate our request for dog care for Maisie, our Golden Retriever. We were on an 11 day cruise and throughout our trip received pictures and updates on how Maisie was doing. She is a 1 year old golden with high energy and can be a handful. Not only did Ed improve her behavior on walks, but also worked on getting her to stop jumping on everyone she meets. It was wonderful to see her play with his dog and his children. Needless to say we wondered if she would want to come home with us because of all the attention she received. We highly recommend Ed and the wonderul care that he and his family provided for our Maisie.
Arielle is wonderful! We felt lucky to find her available after our regular Rover go to was unavailable for our recent trip. Our precious pup, Beignet, had the best time and received amazing care under her, and her husband's, careful watch! Their genuine love for dogs is apparent and shines through crystal clear. Arielle also provided the best pics, and even video, to allow us the best insight into how our fur boy was doing each day! We are grateful for the service provided.
Ashley was incredible! She sent an update with pictures every evening so we knew what they were up to and gave peace of mind while missing our girl. She was so attentive to Winnie - Let us know when her ear seemed to bother her and was down to clean her ears and offered to go purchase solution if needed. She checked with us prior to be sure Winnie could have a piece of Thanksgiving turkey and even got her a special toy during her own errand run which she still carries around. Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! Would recommend to anyone!
