“I have a special-needs dog that is blind, and due to loss of sight struggles with other dogs only because he can’t see them coming. Tracy watch Dover Rocky and make sure he was OK with all the other dogs and then sent me some of the cutest pictures of him just relaxing little notes telling me he was getting along with a dog that barked at him earlier. I’m never left Rocky with any other person other than family. Tracy is not part of that family.”

“We had a great experience with Kellene taking care of our pup. She was very responsive before and during the stay, and sent many updates/photos. Ozzy and coco got along great and it was nice to have a meet and great before to make sure the stay would go well. She treated Ozzy like her own pup and took him for walks, lots of play time and cuddles. We couldn’t ask for anything more!”


“Scott and his dog Lucy were a great match for Roo! I received multiple picture updates and he was great at communicating. We met up beforehand to ensure a good match, and it was clear Scott has a natural way with dogs. Would gladly rebook!”

“We couldn't be happier with Sarah! Her and her family were incredibly reliable, warm & welcoming, and went above and beyond to ensure Moose was comfortable and well-cared for. When our flight was changed last minute, Sarah was understanding and flexible. We appreciated the daily updates and so many amazing photos. It was so reassuring to see how happy Moose was during his stay. We highly recommend Sarah to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter! We will absolutely be rebooking for our next vacation.”

“She was responsive in messages and my best friend seemed to have enjoyed himself. She was understanding of the differences and issues with different dogs. I was on vacation for 2 weeks, and she allowed me to feel relaxed that he was in good hands.”

“This was my first time using Rover and I could not be happier! Dawn and her husband were wonderful sitters. My dog, Jax, was obviously comfortable within minutes of walking in the house. Through out his stay Dawn would send pictures so I could see for myself how ‘chilled’ Jax was. I highly recommend Dawn and would definitely leave Jax in her care again.”
“Lisa was great as always! She made my dog feel comfortable and kept me informed of how she was doing. My dog seemed very happy and I appreciate everything Lisa did! Definitely recommend. 😊”

“Ashlee was great with my dog, Sariah! She sent updates with pictures throughout the weekend, which was much appreciated. We will definitely book her again when we need a sitter.”

“I am thankful Rhonda was able to watch my Boston Terrier on short notice. I was very comfortable leaving him with her and will definitely have her watch him in the future.”

“As always, Rupert came home happy after a fun weekend with Laura. I love knowing that he’s in good hands & I can enjoy what ever I’m doing (in this case, it was my oldest son’s wedding weekend!). Laura is great about sharing pictures & short recaps of their days together! Thank you, Laura!”

“Kristine took great care of Twyla. She communicated well and shared photos of her each day. It looked like she got lots of exercise and social time with her dog Cooper and the other dogs she cared for during the day. When we picked her up after her stay, she was clean and seemed to be pretty comfortable in Kristine’s home. We will continue to use her in the future.”

“Rebecca took great care of my Auro. I had plenty of pics and updates. Auro was the happiest during his stay and was very sad after he came back :(. He was missing his friends dearly.”

“Michelle was so sweet with our pup. She sent a bunch of pictures and really treated her as if she was her own dog. Tons of walk, toys and love. Thank you Michelle! We'll be using you again :)”

“Gabriel took excellent care of my dog while I was away. I appreciated being updated with frequent pictures throughout the day. I highly recommend Gabriel and I would definitely have him watch my dog again.”


“Dan and his family are our go-to sitters since we moved to the area. Our elderly dog, Stella, has stayed with them over the weekend twice and will be staying with them again next month for over a week. They have been more than accommodating with her needs, from providing her endless attention to making sure she gets her medications on time. They are patient with her fussiness and also make sure she gets plenty of time to rest. They also reach out to us during the visit with photos and updates! While they often sit multiple dogs at once, they maintain excellent control ensuring everyone is happy and healthy. They are retired so the pets receive loads of affection and are not left alone. Stella has grown quite attached to Dan and we look forward to having her stay with them again soon! We highly recommend this attentive, caring family!”
“Yolanda was amazing, she took amazing care of my dog,. he was spoiled, walked, cuddled and she even got him to play nice with another older dog! I truly appreciate a sitter that i can trust! she was knowledgeable, her family was calm and welcomed Gaige. Book her you won't be disappointed we will be back hopefully next month!”

“Jessica took such great care of Herman! He had so much fun playing with new friends and visiting the dog park- he had just as good of a vacation as we did!”

“Lacey was great! She quickly responded on short notice to watch my dog, she was super flexible with drop off and pick up times and her dog definitely had fun playing with mine and it was great knowing she was in good hands and getting lots of playtime! Will definitely book again!”
Merrill Park dog parents share their Rover experiences
Madeline was absolutely wonderful with Pretzel and Stella during a two-week stay. As the first sitter outside of friends and family I've ever trusted with my dogs, I was understandably nervous but she put those worries to rest immediately. She kept me consistently informed throughout the entire booking, which made such a difference. I came home to two happy, healthy pups and total peace of mind. She clearly genuinely cares about the animals in her care. I'm already looking forward to booking with her again!

Tracie was wonderfully attentive and great with our pup! We’ll definitely be booking again in the future. Great communication, and respectful of our dog’s needs. Our dog can be a bit leash reactive, but Tracie was mindful to introduce her carefully to her own pets and make sure our dog was comfortable. Thank you, Tracie!!

Maggie was a wonderful and attentive sitter for our dog, Bolo! She has cared for Bolo twice and he was excited to see her on the 2nd round. She clearly cares about the pets she sits for, and she asked about everything I could have thought related to Bolo's care. Maggie sent updates while we were gone, and we quickly built trust with her. She was easy to work with and flexible with pick-up and drop off time changes too! I will be asking her to pet sit for us again soon!

Sarah and her family provided constant updates of my dog throughout the week. Her daughters seemed really engaged and loving on my dog, making me feel confident she was receiving all the love and affection she gets at home. When I picked her up, my dog seemed so relaxed, almost as if she hadn’t been gone all that time, helping me feel confident she was safe and loved on. Usually after boarding in a facility, my dog is highly anxious, extra agitated and disheveled. None of that here with Sarah. Her and her family were truly the best sitters. I never worried once while away.

Would definitely book again with Jill in the future. She clearly loves dogs and has lots of treats and dog toys in her home. Our anxious pup warmed up to her quickly and came home happy. And she came in clutch for us and was able to take our booking on short notice when we really needed it. Would recommend to others looking for a dog sitter.
