“Stephanie was an absolute blessing! I needed to board my cats for a couple days and she really came through! My cats were safe, comfortable and happy! She went above and beyond!”

“Amy was amazing! I left my cat Dino in her care for over a week, and she was very communicative, kind, and caring for my cat. By the end of his stay, he was even cuddling with her throughout the night because of how comfortable he was. Will definitely book again! 10/10 service would recommend”

“Mercedes and her family were absolutely amazing with our dog Bane. I got many pictures while away; all of him being loved. We joked that we might have to kidnap our own dog back because they loved him so much. I’ll definitely be booking with Mercedes again.”

“Iman is caring and creative with her "guests". For this stay, Iman presented me with artwork that was created by my dog, Honey. I never worry about my dog when she is in Iman's care.”


“Lisa was wonderful. She sent pictures and updates throughout the day and I genuinely felt like my dogs were being cared for and loved while they were with her. I highly recommend her services. Thanks, Lisa!”
“Great relief, knowing my dog Barbie was in great hands for two weeks. Latasha would also send updates and pictures which really was really comforting to know Barbie was being well took care of. Would highly recommend Latasha to family and friends.”

“Amia,Joshua and family have been nothing but great to my baby Barry. He loves spending time over there, I definitely recommend them. They are the best fit for your fur baby 🙂”

“Our pup was so well-loved by Patricia and her family. From the second she met our dog I knew she was in good hands and the regular updates and pictures she sent reassured us of that. Could not recommend her services more highly!”


“This was my 1st time boarding my pet. I was worried but Dwight came with such great reviews so I took a chance. I am so glad I did. Dwight was amazing with my pup and my pup even made new friends. I will be rebooking ASAP and I am also going to include traditional daycare. Thanks Dwight and thanks Rover for doing all the research and making the process seamless!”

“Five Stars! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We are beyond grateful for the incredible care Michelle and her family provided for our senior pup, Boots. She’s 15 years old, has several health issues, and requires a very specific medication routine—including liquid meds and multiple eye drops throughout the day. They were incredibly patient with her, attentive to every detail, and clearly took the time to understand her needs. I had never left Boots with a sitter before, but was at such ease leaving her with Michelle! We received regular updates and felt totally at ease knowing she was in such loving, capable hands. It’s rare to find someone who not only follows instructions but genuinely cares about the comfort and well-being of your pet. Boots came home relaxed and happy, which says it all. We will absolutely be booking with them again and recommend them without hesitation to anyone looking for thoughtful, dependable care for their fur baby—especially senior dogs with extra needs. Thank you so much for treating Boots like family!”

“My dog was so calm after I picked him up boarding with Kyla. Energetically, I could tell that he was very well taken care of with her - no stress, no anxiety, just peace. TY KYLA!!!”

“Kimberley was an awesome sitter for our pups. She shows that she truly cares and treated our dogs like her own. Would certainly recommend her to a friend, and hope to book her in the future!”
“This was my dog's 3rd stay with Angelo. He was treated like a King and was living his best life. The big thing I noticed is that when I took him back, he didn't hesitate getting out of the car, he looked forward to staying there.”

“My dog Buddy had the best of time with Janet. I would highly recommend Janet. Buddy was almost sad returning home. I received pictures during the stay which I really loved. Thank you Janet for making my dog feel at home and loved!”

“Data was great at sending pictures and staying in constant communication. Piper probably got more walks there than she does when we are at home! Piper was comfortable and happy the whole time!”

“Desiree was incredibly accommodating to my dog's needs and very understanding of her anxiety. Since this was Bell-A’s first time being boarded, I was naturally nervous, but Desiree took excellent care of her and made the experience as stress-free as possible. She sent daily updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that Bell-A was in caring and capable hands. I truly appreciate the attention, patience, and love she showed my dog, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter.”


“Kori obviously had a great time at Jim’s. Jim is very organized and attended to my senior dog’s needs well in the quiet and relaxed environment she needs. I would feel comfortable having Kori stay with Jim again.”

“Amber did such a wonderful job caring for my senior dog! She was incredibly attentive to all of the instructions I provided, including her medication schedule, feeding routine, and outdoor needs. She also sent thoughtful daily updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that my pup was in great hands, and I’m so grateful for the care and attention she provided. I would happily book with her again in the future!”

Oak Forest dog parents share their Rover experiences
Jennifer and her family make us very comfortable in leaving our leo with them. I love the way her children love on him. I have no worries when we are out of town. It feels as if I left him with a family member. Also she sends us several daily updates. Grateful we found her.

Sarah did an amazing job taking care of Murphy overnight! She clearly treated him like her own and made sure he was comfortable, happy, and well cared for. I really appreciated all the pictures and updates—it gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Murphy had such a great time, and I could tell he was in great hands. I would absolutely trust her to watch him again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!
Danny was awesome. The person that was going to watch my dog for a week canceled two days before my trip and I had very little options. He was willing to do it very last minute. He provided me with lots of pictures and updates and always answered any questions I had throughout the week. I loved that he had a yard for her to play in, and she had plenty of company between him and his family so I knew she wasn’t lonely. On Christmas his family got her treats and toys and he treats them as one of his own. He helped me bring her bags in and out of the car and was very nice and courteous. Super close to home and I tend to worry a lot and I felt very comfortable leaving here there for the week. No issues at all, would definitely reach out to Danny again for my doggy boarding needs.
