“Took care of my cat while my apartment was being chemically treated! Sent frequent pictures and updates and was a great sitter. Followed instructions and kept him fed and happy.”

“Brock came home happy and calm. Arrangements were easy to make, and Furrough and Amir were very responsive when I reached out for updates. I appreciated getting photos, especially right after drop-off.”

“This was the first boarding experience for my 2 year old fur baby and it could not have gone better. Heather and Norman are the BEST! They were very accommodating and commutative. Rita LOVED her time in their home. It truly was her home away from home. I will definitely be using Heather and Norm in the future. Thank you guys for everything!”

“Amad was perfect! He was kind and gentle with the pooches and there was no drama at the drop off and lots of excitement at the pick-up. He was conscientious about instructions. I appreciated the pics/video Amad sent!”
About: I was raised in a very pet-friendly family. We had dogs, cats, hamsters and pets galore. I was the proud pet parent of an 13 year old yellow-lab named Charlie. We went for a 2.5 mile walk twice a day (morning and night). I love animals of all sizes and types. Animals are my true passion. As my headline says, "Don't Be Nervous Pet Service." I will ensure that your animal family member is properly cared for and loved. I am blessed that my full-time position is work from home… this makes me able to work from anywhere. Your pet loved one will be surrounded by love all day long. I care for your pets the same regardless of my house or yours. I will ensure that their daily routines are followed and that they get LOTS of play time. If we rough house play, I always ensure that’s done outside so that all client possessions are not at risk for tail wag hits. :)
“Ali and his wife are incredible caretakers for animals in their care. I got pictures every day of my dog. It made me feel secure in her care. I recommend them highly.”

“Caitlin boarded our dog Frodo for a week, it was our first time leaving our dog with anyone. We couldn't be more pleased with the care Frodo receive from the family and the communication pictures and videos were great as well ! We highly recommend Caitlin and her family for pet care. We look forward to using them again.”

“Our dog and cat had a great stay with Alexis. She kept us up to date on how they were doing and sent lots of pictures and videos. Our dog especially can be shy at first and she was immediately comfortable with Alexis. I also appreciated that she suggested we meet beforehand so we could see where the pets would be staying and make sure everyone got along. I would definitely book again!”

“Potato had such a wonderful time with Erica, actually the whole family. Her home is so inviting and set up perfectly for a doggy visit. They lost their beloved dog recently, but retained lots of toys, resting areas and gates if necessary to restrict areas of the house. Potato enjoyed the family room with frequent opportunities for human contact and a direct access to a fenced outside area. We were especially pleased with the one dog policy since Potato does not like to share attention. We had plenty of updates and pictures. When we picked him up, he kept looking back to the door like he was trying to decide whether to stay or go home. We will absolutely contact Erica for any future stays. Six stars!”

About: I’m a responsible, animal-loving mom with a flexible work-from-home schedule and a big fenced-in yard for your pet to play in. I have had pets (cats and dogs at different times) for my whole adult life, but said goodbye to my sweet elderly dog last year and am now enjoying the adventure of pet-sitting for others. My wife and I have an adorable 1-year-old child (she is in daycare most weekdays but she LOVES animals) and I have a peaceful home and routine that allows me to give lots of attention, love, and care to your pet. I offer a calm, predictable environment and we treat every pet like part of the family, with lots of love, attention, play, walks, and belly rubs. Your pet will enjoy a secure, spacious outdoor play area, comfy indoor areas to relax, a walkable neighborhood with forest trails, and (with your permission) lots of treats. I’m around all day for walks, feedings, and companionship, and I love sending you pictures of your pet having a blast on their vacation. My Schedule: I work full time from home (with some flexibility) on weekdays while my child is in daycare, and am happy to watch your pet on a daily basis or board them overnight. The environment : I have a large fenced in yard and a comfortable, climate controlled home, and have experience caring for dogs and cats, including elderly animals. I host one pet at a time (unless the pets are from the same family) and will lavish your fur baby with attention, play, and plenty of time outdoors. Because I have a young child, I can currently only care for pets 25lbs or under who are comfortable with babies/toddlers.

“Aemelia was very kind and took great care of our pup. She was good at communicating and sharing photos of Alice and Eko playing together and hanging out. We won’t hesitate to reach out to her again in future.”

“I can’t recommend Trishul enough. He treated our dogs like his own and was extremely responsive and great at keeping us informed the whole time. One of our dogs required medications at an odd schedule and he was so accommodating. I had no doubt that our dogs were in good, caring hands.”
“I only have great things to say about our experiences with Shawna! She's great at communicating - she was always quick to respond to qurstions and sent daily updates and pictures. She is also just a very nice person who immediately puts you at ease when leaving your pup in her care. She took great care of our guy and we will definitely use her again!”

“First time using Rover and had a great experience with Keith & Ashley. Had last minute travel plans come up and they were very accommodating and kept me updated and in the loop all weekend. My dog is anxious and has some separation anxiety and they made him feel right at home.”

“Kelley treated my puppy like family… it was hard to bring my pup home because she had such an incredible time!! I couldn’t recommend Kelley enough and I can’t wait to have my little pup stay with her again! She sent me a ton of pictures and videos and I never had to worry at all. I’m so thankful I was able to have my puppy stay with her and her family!”

“I have been using rover for 4 years now and Amy has been the best petson to take care of my dog "Johnny" so far. She is Highly Recommended and will be using her to take care of my Dog moving forward. The pictures she sent us we awesome and it really looked like my dog was living his best life lol. You will not be disappointed.”

Northampton pet parents share their Rover experiences
It was our first time boarding our dog and we had an amazing experience with Emma. Our dog was immediately comfortable with her and settled in very quickly. I could tell from her photos and videos that he was comfy and happy. Emma put us at ease as two very nervous pet parents but we did not worry at all. We are so thankful to have found Emma and would not hesitate to work with her again.

We are extremely happy with the care and attention Jodi gave our 11-year old terrier mix, Dasher. Jodi offered us a meet and greet before our vacation dates that put us at ease right away. Dasher checked out her home with his nose while reviewed his daily routines, medicines and likes/dislikes. Jodi asked great questions that showed us that she truly loves dogs and gets their individual personality quirks. Dasher took to her quickly and enjoyed ear rubs during our meeting. We received at least one message and photo of Dasher from Jodi each day he was in her care. He clearly looked happy and comfortable, and got lap time with Jodi as well as walks and supervised yard time. We're already booked to have Jodi care for Dasher again soon. Highly recommend!

Evan took great care of Scout. Great communication throughout and Evan went above and beyond in caring for our boy. We were sent pictures and updates regularly. Scout was given so much love, exercise and care. Would def rebook. We are grateful that our pup was so loved while we were away.
