“We felt very comfortable leaving our Cookie with Ann. Ann sent pics and updates to us on how Cookie was doing. Ann was great and I would definitely use her as a sitter again!”
“Absolutely Wonderful ❣️ Mercedes & her family welcomed my SaxyPoo into their home 🏡 with big hugged & sloppy kisses👄. They kept him active with plenty of walks & play. Mercedes kept me abreast of my baby with a collage of pictures & messages. She is very organized & intentional about the care for each pet while demonstrating her knowledge of the family with homemade treats.”
“Jim was great with Philip! He sent photos and kept me updated throughout the stay. Jim’s home is very clean and organized. He played with Philip in his backyard and even invited his dad’s dog over to keep my boy company. The two got along well! Will certainly book again! Book with Jim!”
“Addi loved her time with Dara. She got walks and plenty of play time. Dara sent pics to keep me updated. It was my first time using Rover or anyone other than family. Highly recommend Dara.”
“Nemo took to Kathleen right away. She kept him busy with walking and playing with her children. She is a dog lover! He is as in good hands. Sent several pics too. Would definitely ask her to sit again.”
“Janet is amazing! My dog loves coming to board with her and her fur babies. She is kind to him and treats him as one of her own! I’m so grateful when she has availability. Highly recommend!!!”
“Kyla was incredible!! From the initial contact to pickup, she was friendly and professional. She took the time to know my dog’s needs and preferences. She sent me regular updates and photos of my pup, which put me at ease while I was away! I highly recommend Kyla for a trustworthy and caring place for their dog. I’ll definitely be booking again!”
“LOVE HER LOVE HER LOVE HER and so does Mac!! She was patient helpful and gentle with my brat. He seemed very comfortable and happy with her. Definitely recommend!”
“Tabitha was so amazing and took such great care of Taco! I really appreciated all of the pictures she sent me as well. It was really great as well that Taco had other dog friends to play with while I was gone! Next time I go out of town, I would definitely book again!”
“Susseth was great. She was very responsive, contacting me right away. We set up a meet and greet. Our dogs got along fine so we booked a week long stay. She took great care of Bella, sending daily pictures. Bella was excited to come home and slept for a whole day. So I’m guessing Susseth’s dogs and Bella had some fun playtimes together. Thanks for a worry free week.?”
“Kendra took really good care of both of our pets while we were exploring the city. She was very communicative and sent pictures so we felt very safe leaving our pets with her. We’d definitely work with her again next time we find ourselves in Chicago.”
“Tanisha and Darrius did an excellent job with an overnight say with my pup. I had a last minute trip I needed to take and they were available and willing to help me out. There communication was excellent and informative. My dog who is usually stressed in rush situations and gets sick, came home happy, healthy and rested well. Items I had forgotten like his blanket were provided by them for his comfort. I received pictures of his daily activities from nap time to playing in the back yard with some new friends. My dog was not ready to come home when being picked up and that's exactly the kind of stay I was hoping he would have. I was at ease of his well being during my trip and will be utilizing Tanisha and Darrius many more times in the future.”
“I can’t recommend her enough! She was an absolute sweetheart and took incredible care of my dogs. She kept me updated with the perfect amount of messages and photos, and it was so clear how much she genuinely loved and played with them as if they were her own. She also went above and beyond to accommodate a family emergency I was dealing with, and I’m so grateful for her kindness and flexibility. If you get the chance to book with her, do it. Your pets will be in the best hands.”
“Kamiah and Casius were great sitters for Bailey. For me, it was a very last minute booking and Kamiah was incredibly accommodating to make it work. She was also very quick to contact us on the first day when Bailey wasn't eating (but everything was fine, as this is how Bailey always is at a new place), and Bailey looked very happy in the photos and videos we got each day. Also, Kamiah's pick-up and drop-off were prompt and efficient. I definitely plan to use them again!”
“Megan was so sweet!. This was the first time we needed to board our baby for a few days. Megan eased our worries. She was in contact with us throughout the day. She sent lots of pics of our baby. Definitely will be a return customer!”
“Manuel was so good to my baby Luna!!! He agreed to a last minute booking for me during a week long vacation. He sent daily photos and updates and was very responsive to messages throughout her stay. We will DEFINITELY book with him again!”
“Liliana and her family gave me such peace of mind to leave my Whiskey in their care. The initial visit with the family in their beautiful home was so warm and friendly. And while I was away, I was so grateful for the updates and pics throughout each day. Whiskey got attached to one of Liliana’s teenage daughters. So sweet!”

Again! Saxy had a great week with Mercedes & her beautiful crew❣️ Saxy met a new BESTIE, Mugsy💕🐾🐶 They are soo good together…the smiles, licks & wagging tails on the videos that Mercedes sends to keep me fully engaged in my Saxy stay are priceless ‼️🙌🏽👏🏽🎉🤗 Thank You!
If I could give 100 out of 5 stars, I would. Ann and her family are truly heaven sent. From their incredible love for animals, to the thoughtful updates and pictures, to simply being downright amazing people, there’s no one else I would trust with my dog. Enzo was so loved and well cared for the entire time, and I had complete peace of mind while away. I cannot recommend them enough!
My baby was having so much fun I was worried he might not want to come home with me! He even got my little stinker to play fetch- something that me, my parents, and a boyfriend haven’t been able to convince him to do since I got him. So glad to have found a place Chance likes to take him when I am not able to take him with me.
This is our first time using Rover and Kendra made us comfortable and was very accommodating! She even got toys for our boys. She communicated well and sent lots of pictures. Fetty can be very anxious and they can be reactive to dogs, she was patient and worked well with them. We will definitely be using her in the future ❤️
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Matt & Leslie are absolutely amazing! My 15-year-old Australian Shepherd, Bear, requires special attention with his medication, mobility, and feeding, and they cared for him with such compassion and dedication. They even built a ramp to make Bear more comfortable during his stay — that level of thoughtfulness meant the world to me. They also sent me daily photos while I was away, which gave me so much peace of mind and let me see how happy and well cared for Bear was. It is such a blessing to find people who treat your dog like family. I feel SO BLESSED to have found Matt & Leslie, and I recommend them wholeheartedly. Five stars all the way!
Olivia kept my baby Leah for the weekend while I went out of town, and I was honestly nervous because anyone who knows me knows how I feel about my baby. But Olivia was amazing. She sent tons of pictures and updates the whole time, which really helped me relax. She even gave Leah extra treats and sent her home with some too. I ended up needing to extend my trip unexpectedly, and Olivia was super understanding and flexible about it. That meant a lot to me. Leah was clearly well taken care of and loved while she was there. Olivia will forever be my baby’s home whenever I’m away. I’m so grateful I found her!
Mark was great with answering my questions, and quick to respond to! Mark sent photos of how my dog was doing which I appreciated and made me feel like he was really being taken care of. He was great with my dog and I will not hesitate to ask Mark to watch him again.
