“Cary was great with my dog! Very friendly, calm and accommodating! I was nervous about finding someone to watch my dog for me, she has strong opinions about people and doesn't like everyone, but she warmed right up to Cary, we had no issues at all!”
“Sophie was accommodating and helpful, great communication and made our pups feel right at home. She didn't even flinch when one of them came right in and went #2 under her table! She sent a few pictures and overall was a great dogsitter. Thank you!”
“Ruben is an absolute HERO. I was struggling to find someone to keep my fur babies (dog & cat) long enough because work kept extending my trip away from home and that’s where a Ruben came in. He worked within my budget, picked up & dropped off my animals while I was already out of town and even left us a little goodie bag. Both Cocoa and Willie came back happy and healthy! Would recommend Ruben 20/10!”
“Tracy is amazing! My pups come home happy and well taken care of. She's great with communication and keeps you updated daily with videos on how your dogs are doing.”
“Robert did great! Even though Logan was there for a shorter stay, I got plenty of pics and Logan looked happy/comfortable in all of them! I picked him up this morning and he's exhausted so I'm sure he had a good time”
“Tammy is the absolute best, she has such a kind demeanor and her home is so welcoming. I’m so grateful she treat Atlas like family and he loves staying with her, he always comes home exhausted!”
“Erin was amazing with Remy from strong and frequent communication to managing his many peculiarities (he loves to rip up a paper towel). Erin also was able to care for Remy when he was feeling sick and anxious to be away from me; will absolutely book again!”
“We had a wonderful experience! Great communication, received lots of updates and photos, and we could see that our dog was happy, comfortable, and relaxed during her stay. Highly recommend John and Ryan!”
“Deborah was wonderful! She took great care of our golden and made the entire boarding experience easy and stress free. She was friendly, reliable, and kept us updated while we were away. We felt completely comfortable knowing our dog was in good hands. We would absolutely book with Deborah again and highly recommend her!”
“We were slightly nervous as first time Rover users, but Darla and Greg quickly put our minds at ease. I can't describe what a positive and wonderful experience it was for us and our dog, Iommi. She loved her time there and we enjoyed getting the photos and updates. They are total pros! It is evident they love dogs and have a lot of experience. Cannot recommend highly enough!”
“This was our first time leaving our pup for more than a few days and needless to say we were only a little tightly wound about it. But Shirley made us feel like we could breathe on our travels and actually be present in the moments. Not only did she keep him loved and cared for, but she was the ultimate documentarian, showering us with plenty of pics and videos to never feel left out. I would highly recommend Shirley for any pet care taking needs, and would love to have her watch Kaito again.”
“As always, Ferris had a great stay with Angel. He was so excited to see Angel at the start of his stay, and he made some new dog friends while there. Angel was excellent at communicating about how Ferris was doing and sending pictures.”

“Gracie had a wonderful time. She was very, very well taken care of. I had pictures at least twice a day that made me feel that she was so safe. She seemed happy and having a very good time and very comfortable. I will not hesitate to use Susan again if I need Gracie to be watched, they’re very nice people. I feel that I have also made new friends for life.”
“I cannot recommend Bailey enough! I was out of the country for a week, with little to no signal, and Bailey still managed to keep me updated as much as she could. My dog, Leo, wasn't eating alot in the beginning and Bailey did everything she could to get him eat and gave him a bath or two after rolling he rolled in poop lol. It was my first time using Rover and I'm so glad I came across her profile! Also, it was a last minute booking and she was able to accept Leo. Thank you, Bailey, for taking care of Leo as if he was your own pup. I know he misses you! Will definitely be rebooking!”
“Christine was absolutely amazing. She took great care of our pup, and we were able to fully enjoy our weekend away knowing Charlie was in good hands!”
“Claire was wonderful with Hazel (older dog) and Sam (older cat). This was the first time we used a pet care service and we were very fortunate to find Claire. She is thoughtful, kind, skilled with dogs and cats, and an excellent communicator. Hazel can be reactive to other dogs on walks; Claire was familiar with the ractive dogs and managed it with well. She also messaged us once a day while we were away with details and pictures. We have already booked with Claire again.”
“Michelle is a LIFE SAVER! After Elmhurst Animal Hospital wrongfully canceled my boarding reservations at the last minute, I scrambled to find someone to watch my 3 small dogs. I found Michelle and she was quick to respond and accept my fur babies for the stay! Michelle and her 2 little girls took AMAZING care of them, sending update reports and pics too. This gave me peace of mind that they were being well cared for! Michelle was also very accommodating when I needed to drop them off early than originally scheduled. I will definitely be utilizing Michelle's services again in the future!”

Diana did a great job taking care of Theo while we were away. She was reliable, made sure he had everything he needed, and kept us updated on how he was doing. We really appreciated her help and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable pet sitter!
Thank you so much for the wonderful care you gave Junior. He is a senior dog and can suffer from separation anxiety and at time refuse to eat, but your frequent updates and attentive care put my mind totally at ease. Seeing how sweet your children were with Junior made the stay extra special. He absolutely loved the kiddos, playing in the backyard, and going on his daily walks. Junior came home incredibly happy. You will absolutely be our go-to sitter moving forward! Review Highlights * Anxiety-Free Stay: Handled senior dog worry with gentle, loving attention. And frequent photo and updates * Kid-Friendly Cuddles: Junior loved snuggling and bonding with the children. * Active & Happy: Great backyard playtime and daily walks kept him thriving. * Future Booking: Officially our new permanent, go-to pet sitter.
First time using a dog‑sitting service, and I was definitely anxious. Janette made the whole experience amazing. She sent pictures and videos almost every day of my dog playing with the other pups and spending time with her daughter. Seeing her so happy made my trip so much easier. I’ll absolutely be returning!
Lori and Guillermo are the best dogsitters! They've watched our dog Roxie a few times now when we've gone on vacation, and it's clear that they love her as much as we do. They're great at communicating and providing updates, and we can tell when we pick her up that she's had a fabulous time!
