“Thank you Judy for an outstanding experience for our beloved dog and for all of us. Your love and caring for Tesla was so wonderful. You communicated twice a day with pictures and updates and they were detailed and reassuring. We really looked forward to our mini chats. Your responsiveness was also great. We knew we could reach you at any time, not that we needed to 😊. You also provided a safe and happy environment for him and he loved being in your home. He was a truly contented pup while he was with you. Words cannot express how grateful we are to you, for providing a home away from home for our dog. Thanks also for grooming him and keeping him in a tip top condition. We cannot say enough about the wonderful service and care you provided. We enjoyed our vacation so much more knowing he was in the best care we could have arranged for him. Thanks again and any dog is lucky to have a home with you while their owners need to be away. We certainly were. I cannot recommend you enough. You are truly the best!!!! 🐕💕🙏🥰”


“Kent was amazing with our Susie! He has so much compassion and love to give. He only takes one dog at a time so he can give all his attention to her. I highly recommend him!”


“We really appreciated Christina's professional and accommodating nature. Also I am no expert eventhough we have a dog. Christina seemed to be very in control and much needed with our little spoiled baby. Our diya's pictures looked as if she was quite happy and adjusted in Christina's home and I would strongly recommend Christina as well as would be happy to utilize her if we are traveling next time around. Thank you Christina for being really good with our Diya.”


“We just picked Kiska up and she's all smiles after her vacation at Ashley's house. We were able to enjoy our time away knowing Kiska was in great hands. Kiska will be enjoying more visits with Ashley. Ashley was able to quickly pivot and help us with some last minute travel complications. Thank You!”


“Mike and Mary were great with my Bingo. They set up a cozy space with his favorite blanket and toy, and to help shy Bingo adapt well to new environments. Highly recommend them!”


“Jessica took great care of our dogs! She was good at sending pics and communicating which I appreciated because one of our dogs is anxious when out of routine. We would definitely recommend her and use her again!!”


“Xiaolin and her husband Matthew did a great job watching our mini dachshund, Phoebe! We loved the daily photos and videos and had peace of mind knowing Phoebe was well taken care of while we were away.”


“My Nash had a tail wagging time. He had friends to play with and found a comfy place to sleep near a big window. Vicky provided regular updates and responding to any questions i had.”


“Yamile is super nice and you can tell she likes pets. She took good care of my dog and cat. I also appreciated that her dog was very chill, even around my cat (they barely acknowledged each other!). Would book with her again.”


“Daniel was AMAZING!! He sent videos and pictures during Chief’s stay! Was good with communication and really just went above and beyond! He made sure to put a jacket and boots on Chief during the cold weather, even dressed him up with holiday bandanas! We are so grateful for him!”


“Balaji & Sanna did an incredible job looking after our pup. We got frequent updates and had open lines of communication in case any clarifications needed to be made. Your pup will absolutely be in great hands with them :)”


“I’m soooo glad to find D’Artagnan here in Rover! My dog Elsa came home happy and tired! He sent me tons of photos and updates during the day and it just gave me peace of mind knowing my baby is having a blast with his dog Nike. Thank you and I am sure Elsa is looking forward to the next she stay with you guys!!!”


“Allis did such a wonderful job watching my 10 y.o. pup, Franklin. She provided daily updates and pictures and videos. I knew Franklin was being loved and well taken care of!”


“We recently had the pleasure of having Beth take care of our beloved dog, Ruth, and we couldn't be happier with the experience! From the moment we dropped Ruth off, Beth made us feel at ease with her warm and caring demeanor. Throughout our time away, Beth kept us updated with adorable photos of Ruth, which truly eased our minds and made us feel connected. It was wonderful to see how much fun Ruth was having! When we went to pick Ruth up, we could tell she had a great time – she was one tired pup! In fact, she seemed a bit reluctant to leave, which speaks volumes about the care and affection she received during our absence. Thank you, Beth, for taking such great care of Ruth! We highly recommend her pet sitting services to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive sitter. We will definitely be reaching out to Beth again in the future!”


“Tatiana is the absolute best sitter we have worked with. She provided regular updates with pictures and videos and took excellent care of our two dogs. Tatyana showed them lots of attention and care. Will definitely be working again with Tatyana in the future!”



“We boarded our two small dogs with Kim for a week and she was the perfect choice. One of our dogs is quite timid but Kim was able to coax her to socialize. Kim realty understands dogs, their moods and temperament.”


“Kelsey and her mom watched our Australian Cattle Dog, Patch, for 12 days while we were abroad. They did a great job! They provided Patch with interaction and companionship during that time. They connected with Patch and played fetch with him. They also sent us pictures of him regularly, and communicated with us frequently. It was a great experience for him and for us, and we highly recommend Kelsey.”

Palatine pet parents share their Rover experiences
We had such a great experience leaving Phoebe with Rhondarose and her family! From the moment we dropped her off, she felt at ease and settled in quickly. When we picked her up the next day, she was relaxed, happy, and clearly well cared for. It’s such a relief to know she was in good hands, and we’ll absolutely be booking with Rhondarose again in the future!

I cannot say enough about how AMAZING Laura is!! We have brought our pups to board with her three times and they always have such a great time. During their last boarding, Laura discovered that one of our babies had intestinal worms and went out of her way to take such good care of her. Thank you so much Laura! You are the best!!

Exceptional dog sitter! This was my dog’s first time staying with someone new, and I was very nervous because she’s anxious around new people and easily scared. She was wonderful with my very shy big girl, taking the time to help her feel comfortable. I mentioned it was my dog’s birthday, and she even went out of her way to make her feel special on her big day. I received daily photos and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. Truly grateful for the care and attention she provided—highly recommend!

Prithvi and Varun were truly great!! This was our first time using Rover, and we were unsure of the whole process. Prithvi walked us through everything, we had a great meet and greet, and they were so responsive. We just finished our booking and every day we got updates and pictures, and immediate responses. I felt so comfortable having my dog with them, and plan on using them again. Very positive and great experience!

Mochi had a wonderful time at Sajeena’s, hanging out with her very well trained pets. We had an emergency and couldn’t pick up Mochi per schedule. Sajeena was extremely accommodating and flexible with our needs. Sajeena is a very responsible and caring pet sitter.

We had such a great experience with Jenn! She sent us daily photos and videos of our English Labrador Naxos. He was having so much fun playing with the other pups, we joked he wouldn’t want to come home! The level of care Jenn provided went above and beyond our expectations. Not only did she handle pickup and drop-off, but she also brushed him and gave him a bath before bringing him home. As a special touch, she even prepared homemade bone broth for him after he tried and loved some that belonged to her own dog, Holly. We'll definitely be calling Jenn again next time we need a sitter. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will truly love and care for their pup! Thank you, Jenn, for taking such great care of Nax!

Valentina was simply amazing! She took such good care of my little boy Apollo that he came home missing her. She was very accommodating, since my request was urgent. She saved the day while other sitters bailed on us last minute. She sent me pictures and/or videos of Apollo daily and I could tell he was having the best time in her care. I’ll definitely book with her again in the future!

Dinara was really great. I cannot thank her enough for taking care of my cat. My cat Lissy is very shy and super indoor cat, and at times can be very antisocial. Dinara, did excellent job at making my cat as comfortable as she can be. I really appreciated her efforts and daily updates on my cat's status. Thank you again for all your care! 😊
