“Thomas took care of Ruby (our Belgian Malinois) when we were away, and it was a great experience. He (and his son) were very caring, I received photos of her daily, and he told me all she did during her stay there. I highly recommend him to all! ❤️”
“Judy and her family impressed us so much. It's easy to find people on Rover with a million good reviews but then you run the risk of it feeling like your dog is under the care of a business. With Judy and her children we really felt like it wasn't a business to them. They really treated our dog like their own, with so much love and attention. They gave us updates regularly and made us feel relaxed knowing our dog was in good hands. To top it all off they sent him home with a special treat and new toys. We are sincerely grateful!”
“Edith was fantastic! She has so much passion for animals and I could tell she knew how to take care of them. She was very easy to get ahold of, very accommodating, and she sent lots of videos so we knew our puppy was having fun and enjoying her stay.”
“Sandra went above and beyond to accommodate my travel plans for a long trip. She provided lots of pictures and made sure my pup was well taken care of. Will definitely be booking again!”
“My two dogs stayed with Austin and Hugo over a weekend and they were the best! Constant updates and honestly the gentlest of caretakers. Will book again!”
“Our big girl had a great time this weekend! She warmed up to him right away, and we received wonderful pics and videos each day. Thank you so much.”
“Love love love! I've found our permanent sitter. Catherine and Christian took such good care of Beau... keeping us updated thru it all. We felt comfortable leaving our pet with them. Wonderful couple.”
“Annelly kept my 3 dogs while we were on a 10 day vacation and she was amazing. We were out of country and didn’t have any phone service most of the trip but she kept us updated on how they were doing. When we picked them up our furry kids all looked happy and well kept. I highly recommend her for any of the services she offers, we couldn’t have asked for anyone better to keep them. I was very anxious to leave them with anyone but felt stress free with no worries after we dropped them off. Thanks again Annelly and family we appreciate the love and care you showed them and will request you each time going forward.”
“Zeus loves Lydia and Christina! My baby boy is always taken care of - top notch service. This is his second home. He always comes home HAPPY and tired 😆”
“Probably my 100th time relying on ely to care for my girls. As someone who has terrible separation anxiety from her pups, ely gives me a huge peace of mind. He spoils them, sends updates all day, I trust him. He’s the best find I’ve ever had. Thanks ely!”
“Jessica and Annmarie were awesome! They took our dogs on walks and were very concerned about making them happy. They were very attentive to us, checking in with us and communicating very promptly and clearly. We will definitely book with them in the future.”
“Careen was an awesome dog sitter while I was away! I immediately felt comfortable leaving my dog with her for a few days. My dog is super shy and has quirks and Careen took great care of her. Highly recommended and will definitely use her again!!!”
“It was our first time boarding our new puppy and everything went well. Justin was great and we had no complaints. We will be using again for sure.”
“I boarded my baby for the first time and this could not be a better experience. My dog has separation anxiety but they took such great care of him. All of the pictures and videos helped calm my nerves and it appears like my dog is even slightly more behaved. I will definitely be booking with them again.”
“Rosanne is the best! She sent me pictures and updates every day. 🐶 Moseley made some new friends, got plenty of walks, and from the pictures seemed to feel right at home, he tried out every dog bed and couch! If she’s available, I couldn’t imagine choosing anyone else! Really. Thanks! Jason and Moseley 🐾”
“Michelle and Christine were fantastic in taking care of my sweet pup, Owen! Owen is a playful 70 lb. puppy, so he is often curious and full of energy. They were awesome with him, and it seemed he really enjoyed playing with the other pups. We received pictures often and Owen always looked comfortable and happy. After meeting with Christine, you can really tell how much she loves the pups and is so willing to go the extra step to make sure they're well taken care of. I'm so grateful to Michelle and Christine for taking such great care of Owen - while leaving my puppy baby is never easy, I felt so much more at ease knowing Owen was in good hands.”
“Jasmine always takes very good care of our dog. She sends pics and video of him thru out the stay. Definitely recommend her as an option for watching your fur baby.”
“Gregory was nice and calm. His calming presence helped me feel comfortable leaving my dog for the first time. I received updates that led me to be happy to see my boy.”
“We had no issues while our pup was with Carla. She really loves dogs and takes care of them as her own. Our dog was put on medication right before boarding and she was able to administer everything while we were gone. Would book again.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Mary and Gerry taking care of our dog Sopy while we were away. From the moment we met Mary and Gerry, we were impressed by their warmth and dedication towards animals. They took the time to get to know Sopy and understand her needs. During her stay with them, Mary and Gerry provided exceptional care for Sopy. They kept us regularly updated by sending us pictures and updates, which gave us peace of mind and made us feel connected. Sopy received lots of love, attention, and exercise during her stay. Moreover, their home was cozy and safe, providing a comfortable environment for Sopy. It was evident that Mary and Gerry are experienced and professional caregivers who genuinely care about the well-being of the pets they look after. We would highly recommend Mary and Gerry to anyone in need of a reliable and affectionate caregiver for their pets. They are amazing, and we will definitely reach out to them again in the future!”

Margate dog parents share their Rover experiences
Coreen took the best care of our dog! We are so glad rover connected us! She was attentive, communicative and caring. Highly recommend!
Judy and her whole family are the best! My dogs were the happiest during the whole stay and she made a part of it by sending videos and photos 🤍
Alyssa took wonderful care of our dog Coco for two weeks while we were away. From the beginning, she was communicative, kind, and truly attentive to Coco’s needs. She sent regular updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind and showed how happy and comfortable Coco was in her care. Alyssa clearly has a natural way with animals. Coco got along wonderfully with her sweet dog and friendly cat. She came home relaxed, happy, and well cared for. We’re so grateful and wouldn’t hesitate to trust Alyssa again.
I had such a great experience with Natasha watching my dog! They were extremely communicative throughout the entire time, always keeping me updated and sending the sweetest pictures. Molly looked happy and well cared for in every photo, which meant so much to me. I could tell Natasha / Her Mom genuinely cared and went above and beyond to make sure everything was smooth. Highly recommend I’d definitely trust them again in the future! <3
We have used Casey and family several times for our Luna. They treat Luna like family. SUPER nice folks that love animals!! Pictures, attention to detail, love, great communication, just AN AWESOME EXPERIENCE!!! It is wonderful when you know your puppy is safe and sound with such loving people! :)
Hugo & Austin were excellent with my dog Echo! They provided updates daily to include pictures. Definitely recommend booking with them.
Annelly was incredible with our pup, Nina. Nina wasn’t feeling her best after a recent vet visit, so I was especially anxious about leaving her — but Annelly went above and beyond to ease every worry. She followed Nina’s feeding instructions perfectly, based on our vet’s notes, and was so attentive to her needs. What meant the most was how much love and care she gave her — cuddling with her, showering her with affection, and being so understanding of her anxious personality. She kept me constantly updated with tons of photos and messages, which brought me so much peace while I was away. Truly, I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. I’ll be booking with Annelly every time I go out of town from now on. She’s a gem.
By far the best care we have had from a sitter on this or wag. Will for sure be going back. Our puppy Rosie did great; we got TONs of pictures and videos along with updates while we vacationed. Zero issues and nothing at all negative to say.
I HIGHLY recommend Michelle!! Leia had so much fun she didn’t even want to come home. Michelle was awesome with keeping my mind at ease and sending multiple pictures and videos throughout the day of my dog having fun. She makes sure to keep all the dogs safe and comfortable while also catering to their own personal needs.
Claudia was great! She sent frequent updates and photos. My dog is very nervous and shy at first and she had great patience and gave her extra love during a storm.
Carla is amazing!🤩 first time booking with her and I’m keeping her for sure! She seems she loves animals and she was very attentive with my little ones! Thank you so much! highly recommend 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
I’m so lucky I chose Esperanza to watch my King Charles Cavalier Simon for me while I was gone. She’s extremely friendly, has great communication, and was accommodating every step of the way. This was actually a same day request due to a work emergency and I don’t think I could have got any luckier with who I chose. I highly recommend to anyone who wants their fur babies in a safe and dog-loving home.
She was amazing with Axel, he’s an aggressive chewer and she kept a keen eye on him. So incidents occurred. I will def use her exclusively from now on. Regards, Karen
Jessica and AnnMarie are, without a doubt, the best dog sitters we've ever had! Our pup Maddi is extremely attached to us, but they went above and beyond to make sure she felt safe, loved, and right at home. From the moment we dropped her off, we knew she was in the best hands. They kept us updated with photos and videos throughout the day, which gave us so much peace of mind. Maddi absolutely fell in love with their family - and so did we! We won’t trust anyone else with her from now on.
I recently had Sharie take care of my one-year-old Goldendoodle, Princess, and I couldn’t be more grateful for the love and attention she received. Sharie took the time to understand Princess’s needs and made sure she felt comfortable and safe. Kept me updated with texts and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who truly treats your pup like family. We will definitely be booking her again. —Laura and Princess 🐾💖
Becca took amazing care of my Frenchie, Diesel, but what was most comforting was the daily communication and photos while I was traveling!!! Highly recommended as your next choice as an alternative to pet boarding. I will definitely use Becca’s services in the future!!
Estefanía was amazing! Communication was clear and consistent, and she sent lots of pictures and videos, which made it so nice to see updates of my puppy while I was away. She was able to take us in last minute, which I really appreciated. My puppy had a great time and looked so happy. I’ll definitely use her again! Thank youu!
Ana was wonderful! She constantly kept me updated by sending me pictures and videos and giving me updates throughout the day. She set my mind at ease and really felt like my pup was in great hands! Would definitely use her again.
