“We had a great experience leaving our dog with Tracey for a few days while we were out of town. She was easy to coordinate with, responsive, and sent us a recap at the end of each day. Maaya loved her time there with lots of walks and made herself right at home. We’d love to have Tracey watch Maaya again.”

About: I’ve taken care of friend’s pets, family and neighbors. I’ve recently adopted a rescue from Pet haven who loves hikes. Pet friendly Home away from Home. I’m available to feed, walks and playtime with your pet throughout the day. I have other pets who also have a routine, and should fit in nicely with others. Our home has a fenced in yard where there’s plenty of space to run. My husband and I also hikes on the week and go to dog parks(if parents are ok with this).

“This guy obviously loves dogs and our Oliver was very happy to spend time with him and his dog. He took him on walks and sent us pictures and videos to reassure us that everything was fine. Will definitely book him again. Next time, we travel!”

“Justin took good care of my two big dogs. One is more anxious and timid with strangers but she came around after a few days with Justin. My other dog is very easy going but doesn’t get along with other dogs usually. Justin was very accommodating taking them both in when our other sitter cancelled on us. He gave us updates throughout the stay and took very good care of them!”

“Loki had a great time with Daisy. I got pictures and updates daily and it looked like he was having fun with the other dogs she was boarding, and playing fetch. Daisy was flexible with dropoff and pickup times providing a little extra peace of mind in case of flight delays getting back.”

“Peter and Marcia took amazing care of Mowgli and sent the best updates to read each night ! We Will absolutely be leaving him again with them : )”

“Bill went above and beyond taking care of our dog. Lots of walks, treats and snuggles. He kept us updated and sent lots of photos. Bill has great, positive energy. We will be sure to use him again.”

Near North dog parents share their Rover experiences
Justin was great with our dogs. They were walked regularly and Justin kept them secure on safety leads. His home is in a great area next to Theodore Wirth Park. Our dogs did come home smelling like second-hand smoke, but a little shower cleared that up. He was also very accommodating and flexible with our changing schedule.

We could not have asked for a better Rover match while we had the opportunity to travel over the holidays! Murphy was quickly welcomed into such a loving home and this will be my first choice for any future dog sitting needs. I was nervous to leave her for longer than our typical trip, but had no anxiety at all once I saw how comfortable she was from day one. Thank you again!

Celia took excellent care of both my dog & cat over the holidays & I’d highly recommend her services. She was very responsive before & during their stay, had a great set-up for both dogs & cats, took extra care to ensure the dynamic was suitable with another dog that was also staying with her & both pets came home happy & content. I couldn’t ask for a better experience & we will for sure be booking with her again in the future.

Maddie was wonderful to our dog, Eddie, and it was comforting to know he was in good hands. It was so clear he was well cared for while we were away and we loved the frequent and sweet updates we received! We appreciated her kindness and flexibility with plans, as well. We would certainly trust Maddie to watch our pup again in the future and would recommend her boarding services to others!

My herding dog came back from her stay happily tuckered out - a rare occurrence! Jacqui and Kyle took great care of my dog, who made sure to say goodbye to Kyle when we picked her up, which she usually never does. My pup was clearly very happy with them, and I will absolutely be booking again.

We were so grateful to find Kate was available to watch our Oscar over the holidays as our regular sitter was also out of town. Kate was so easy to coordinate with and quick to respond to every text and question. When we went to the Meet n' Greet, it was like chatting with an old friend! She was so warm and asked about questions about Oscar to get to know him. Her dogs welcomed Oscar to pack quickly and everyone was having a good time in no time. She has such a nice backyard which was such a special treat for my "city dog". You can tell that Kate loves dogs and treats them all as her own. Oscar even got to sleep in her bed at night, which is what he is used to, so I know he felt at home! When I picked him up you could tell he had been well looked after. I highly recommend Kate for any dog, young or old. She's a GREAT sitter!!!

My dog had a great long 8 night stay with Leah while my wife and I were on vacation. Leah gave regular updates with photos, and was very easy to communicate with the entire time + before. She took him on walks and she has a fenced yard to play in. I definetly recommend Leah and would trust her to care for my dog again.
