“Jeff & Beth are fantastic sitters! They sent us tons of photos and updates on our puppy. Our puppy had such a fun time in their enormous backyard, and she is genuinely tired out now, which is really difficult to accomplish. We’re so grateful to have found Jeff and Beth and definitely recommend them!”
“I was nervous about leaving my puppy for the first time and lee made it so easy and smooth. Billie had an amazing time and Lee put my mind at ease by sending me lots of videos and pictures. She's a great communicator and so clearly loves the puppies.”
“Chad provided a great sit for my 2 dogs. They were clearly well cared for. Between the two of them, they need a lot of meds and Chad willingly dispensed them. They'll be back! Thanks, Chad.”
“Karen did a wonderful job taking care of my large dog during a long weekend. When I did an initial meet and greet with Karen and my energetic and somewhat excitable dog, her calm demeanor and knowledge of dogs put me at ease. During my pup's stay with Karen, he enjoyed a long hike through a beautiful park and rolled around in the grass in her enclosed backyard. Karen even got my dog used to a new, gentler harness. From what I could tell, my dog had a great time with Karen!”
“Kristen and Ryan were very welcoming of our pup! They were understanding of her nuances and helped her adjust to a new environment fast. They have a nice spacious home with a big backyard that our dog loved relaxing in. Kristen and Ryan were very communicative throughout the stay and sent daily updates with photos. 100% recommend!”
“Mary is absolutely fantastic! She is responsive, a joy to work with, and clearly cares about the dogs in her care thriving and being as comfortable as possible. Finn had a wonderful stay and we are just so thankful to have found Mary. Recommend 100000%!”
“Alexis and her roommate very curious to learn about Puffy as I dropped him off which was nice. They were very communicative and kept me up to date with texts and pictures. Thanks alot!”
“Vanessa was so kind and careful with our pup Gumbo! We were extra nervous because we had to leave him with her for two weeks while he recovered from an injury. Following our vet’s instructions, she gave him his meds, restricted his activity, carried him up and down the stairs, and provided so much loving care. And she sent us lots of updates! Her pup Robin is so sweet too. We’re looking forward to Gumbo’s next stay with them.”
“We really appreciated Kit as our dog sitter. She was much more thorough and concerned about all the care details for our little doggie which let us know that she really wanted to make sure he was in the best hands when we were away. When I arrived her own dog came out and greeted our dog in a very friendly, non-threatening way which made us realize he was going to be with a doggie friend, not just 'humans'! It seems Kit creates a safe, friendly, relaxed environment for any visiting dog. she also offered to go above and beyond with some extras. We recommend her highly.”
“Kelly is an amazing dog sitter and one of the few people I would trust to board my pup. Her communication and professionalism are superb and most importantly she absolutely loves dogs and goes out of her way to make sure they are safe, comfortable and well taken care.”
“My animals are always so happy and healthy after a stay with Mariola! They definitely see it as their home away from home. I'll absolutely have them stay there, pretty much any time I leave town.”
“Rachel is a terrific dog sitter! She is very responsive and communicative, and my dog had a great time with her and her dog. I appreciated the photos and videos of their beautiful hikes and play time.”
“Everything went wonderfully and Dvora made us feel listened to and understood, and her deep experience with dogs and cats is evident. Barnes warmed up quickly and was excited to see Dvora for the second time and went with her happily and willingly, which is a very good sign for him!”
“I was super nervous leaving my two with someone new, as they've always stayed with the same person for the last 7 years. Suzanne was great at keeping me updated and reassured, loved the photos she sent and I didn't need to worry at all as they had a great time and were so chilled out, definitely think they have found a second home with Suzanne and I know our next trip will be a breeze as I will be confident they are well looked after.”
“Keara took care of our dog for a week. She was awesome. Sent us lots of videos and pictures. She was loving and caring with him. Sent us updates, great communication. We felt so comfortable leaving him with Keara.”

Montclair dog parents share their Rover experiences
Bobby and his girlfriend were wonderful! I can tell my dog was very happy and well taken care of! My dog is very needy with high anxiety and takes medication, Bobby was familiar with the meds and was able to administer it orally. We couldn’t be happier finding Bobby! Will definitely use again!
Bo clearly felt so comfortable with Tobias. Tobias suggested we meet before the stay, which made for a smooth time away because I knew Bo was with a kind, thoughtful person who would take good care of him. He sent daily updates with pictures. I will definitely book with him again!
Vanessa was so kind and careful with our pup Gumbo! We were extra nervous because we had to leave him with her for two weeks while he recovered from an injury. Following our vet’s instructions, she gave him his meds, restricted his activity, carried him up and down the stairs, and provided so much loving care. And she sent us lots of updates! Her pup Robin is so sweet too. We’re looking forward to Gumbo’s next stay with them.
Rohun and family provided the best care for my Bernese mountain dog! Her needs have changed since she is getting older, and she is on a medication schedule. I felt very confident and reassured knowing how responsible and responsive Rohun is to my requests and my dog’s needs. I will continue to book this pet sitter with complete confidence.
My dog Winston had a lovely stay with Tiffany & Lauren! Winston is a bit of a grumpy old man and a real couch potato, and he got along really well with their dog Guapa. I wanted him to have a mellow place to stay while I was away, and their place was the perfect getaway. They sent some pictures of him throughout the stay, which I really loved!
