“After doing a meet and greet with Danielle I felt very comfortable with boarding my dog, Miller with her. I liked that she would provide a cageless and friendly environment for him. Danielle and her family were nice to Miller and enjoyed having him. She was good about following his daily routine and provided a picture to show he was doing fine. She also accommodated us by providing a leash and bags, as we forgot ours. I will definitely board Miller with Danielle again.”

“Janet was great with my dog Guts! Took good care of him and she was very flexible and accommodating with pick up and drop off times. I will definitely be bringing Guts back to her should I need care for him in the future.”

“Michelle did a wonderful job caring for my puppy, Mabel. She was an excellent communicator, kept me updated and sent the cutest photos throughout Mabel's stay. As anyone with a puppy knows, they can be full of energy and a little chaotic at times, but Michelle handled Mabel's craziness with patience and confidence.”

“Megan and her family were wonderful with my puppy. I was apprehensive about leaving my 7 month old puppy, because, well he’s a puppy! Megan was so calming and inviting that I knew she would take great care of him! She kept me updated throughout the whole stay with pictures and texts. I highly recommend and will definitely be using Megan again!”

“Elisa did a great job with Winston. It is not easy dealing with a high-energy 7-month puppy who is new to boarding and meeting other animals like kittens. She is very attentive, provides prompt pictures/updates, and Winston enjoys her fenced yard and dog.She is on my "speed dial."”

“I can’t thank Bola enough for the outstanding care she provided for my dog during our 8-day trip! From the moment I reached out, she was incredibly responsive and attentive to all my questions and concerns. I loved receiving daily updates, complete with photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. When I picked my dog up, I was impressed by the detailed report Bola provided, highlighting daily activities, meals, and any unique moments. It's clear she genuinely cares about the well-being of the dogs in her care. I highly recommend Bola to anyone looking for a compassionate and reliable dog sitter. I will definitely be using her services again in the future!”

“Alexandra was so sweet and kept me updated with pictures of my puppy and I can tell my puppy was having the time of her life! I would definitely rebook with her knowing she is in good care”

“Maria took such excellent care of my dog, she really went above and beyond in making sure he was safe, comfortable, and cared for ! I wasn’t expecting it to be so snowy while I was away, and she provided shoes and a coat for him to borrow: so thoughtful and really providing the best care ! As a highlight she also sent many photos and videos and was very responsive via Rover. I highly recommend Maria !”


“Jennifer is professional, communicative and thorough in how she takes care of Harlem. Most of all, it’s obvious that she really loves what she does. Harlem has friends to play with and is well taken care of. I also appreciate the video updates. I’d highly recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for a doggy daycare or sitter!”

“Heather ended up taking care of Dempsey an extra day after our flight back to Chicago was cancelled. She was quick to respond and helped make a stressful situation a little easier to manage. She took great care of Demps while we were out of town. Thank you!!”

“My pup had such a wonderful time! He will not stop talking about how much fun he had. Sent regular pup dates that had me thinking he may be having such a good time, he wouldn’t want to come back with us at the end! But really wonderful service, we will be booking again!”

“Great communication. Based on pictures our dog seemed to really enjoy her stay (her body language is clear, and she tends to get depressed easily when away from her people.) I appreciated the frequent check ins. We’d be happy to board our dog here again.”

“Rover was quick, easy. The fact that the people who keep your dogs are vetted, is very important to me. Jesus was referral to me. He was wonderful with McKenzie. He was kind, understanding & patient with my elderly dog. He was extremely professional. I will definitely use Rover again & Jesus - absolutely! It was a very positive experience for me & my dog!!”

“Skipper had the best time with Katherine, Cory and the fam! She enjoyed playing with their dogs Brownie and Mocha so much she didn’t even want to come home after her stay! I received so many cute updates and pics and felt very calm knowing my baby was in great hands!”

“Marissa took great care of my husky! I highly recommend her! My husky loved her so much. She took lots of pictures and video to make me feel at ease. Marissa took my husky on many walks and let my husky feel at home. She even bought her a toy which I thought was so generous. Thank you so much Marissa I will be a returning customer!”

“Daphnay was wonderful. I was really scared to leave my baby with a stranger and Daphnay put me at ease. I highly recommend her and will be using her again in the future.”

Alejandra was very great with my cats. They can be very shy, but they were very comfortable with her and her pets. She kept me updated about how their days were and sent pictures and videos every chance she got. I highly recommend anyone who needs a sitter to book her, your pets will be in good hands!

We had a wonderful experience with our Rover sitter, Jim! He boarded our 5 month old American Eskimo puppy, Millie, over the busy Fourth of July weekend and we couldn't have been happier with the care he provided. This was our puppy's first time away from home and he made it such a positive experience! Thank you!

Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
