“Carissa was very sweet with my dogs, Charlie and Murphy. She sent pictures of my dogs being spoiled every day. I didn’t have any worries leaving them in her care. Hope to be a repeat customer!”
“Angela and Dave took great care of our girl Ivy! The updates and videos were really helpful knowing that she adjusted well and was having a great time playing with Honey. Highly recommend!”
“Megan took wonderful care of my 8‑month‑old golden retriever during his very first 5‑day boarding stay. She kept me updated every day with pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. He was clearly happy, safe, and well cared for. I’m very happy with her service and will definitely recommend her and book with her again.”
“We are extremely happy with Carla watching our puppy. She went over and above taking care of our pet. We received multiple videos as well as pictures of updates of how she was doing all day. We really appreciate her taking us as a client. We will definitely be booking with Carla next time we need someone to watch our dog.”
“Outstanding!! we love that we got multiple pictures and videos every single day. They took care of our pup like she was one of their own. Their dog has a great temperament and I’m sure our dog will miss playtime and naps with him! I will absolutely book again!”
“I simply do not know what I would do without RhondaRose. The kindest, most professional, flexible, helpful sitter anyone could ever wish for. I am so grateful knowing that Clover is getting such loving care. Thank you!”
“Ruby has stayed with Dickson a few times now and she is always thrilled to go back! She gets a lot of play time outside and on walks, and lots of cuddles when it's time to wind down. Dickson is very caring and attentive and handles her high energy like a pro. I have complete peace of mind knowing she's in terrific hands!”
“Jean was amazing with my golden. I loved getting pictures and videos daily and knowing that he was having a great time. My big guy has terrible anxiety during storms and is on a high dose of anxiety medication that sometimes works. When a bad storm rolled in Jean was compassionate and loving and notified me about his condition. As a very overprotective dog mom I trust Jean and we will definitely be using her again.”
“Incredibly reliable and responsible. My pup has no reservations going to stay with Michelle and her family. It’s a great set up for my Grace. I would recommend Michelle to anyone.”
“Jacquelin and Uriel did a fantastic job watching our dog Esco for the second time. We come from out of town, but we would definitely use them again in the future if possible. Thanks again guys.”
“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.”
“This is the second time our dog has stayed with Derek. She returned happy and was well taken care of. It’s so nice to not have to worry about your dog while on vacation. Knowing she was in good hands was priceless. Thank you Derek!”
“Yamile and her family and her pets have just been amazing. Yamile is Extremely responsive, followed a special diet, took her for walks , gave me frequent updates and generally took great care of my little girl while we were away!!! In fact she seemed sad to leave when it was time for her to come home. We have already booked a follow up stay!! Thanks yamile - you have been a life saver:)”
“I was very pleased on leaving my dog with Shauna & Pete. They kept me up to date on my dog and how he was doing daily. I had peace of mind leaving my dog with this Family.”
“She truly did a great job for my dog. She treated her very well and gave us frequent updates about her. We could tell that she cared for her so much. We felt very comfortable with her taking care of our dog. We would highly recommend her as a dog sitter!!”
“Kent really cares. Such a kind man! He was great with Penny, so thoughtful and attentive. He had lots of questions and wants to know everything he can so he can provide the best care. When I had questions or just wanted to check in he was so fast to respond. Thanks so much! Highly recommended!”
“Thanks to Rusty, I was at ease traveling for a few days with the dogs in his care. Rusty has a dog-friendly space indoors and out and was attentive to the dogs’ individual personality traits and needs. This was the first time I’ve left them with a sitter and both dogs responded well and appeared comfortable. It’s a huge relief to know that Rusty is available to care for my dogs if I need to be away.”

Lake Barrington pet parents share their Rover experiences
We had another wonderful experience with Kelly. Charlie stayed with her and her pups for the weekend-and it just happened to be Charlies 3rd Birthday. She went above and beyond celebrating him with homemade dog-friendly cupcakes, which was so thoughtful and adorable. It gave us such peace of mind that he was not only looked after but truly cared for. Once again he came home happy, healthy and relaxed. We are very grateful for the extra effort Kelly put in to make his Birthday special!! Highly recommend her to anyone.
