“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.”

“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 🙂”


“Stefanie took great care of our doggie Phil while we took a 10 day trip! She kept us updated with pics and videos and followed our care instructions. Stefanie seemed to handle Phil’s high energy very well and our pup got along well with her other dogs! We would definitely book with Stefanie again!”

“Jesus was an amazing dog sitter! He was kind, attentive, and truly welcoming to my little Yorkie, Tre. From the very beginning, Jesus made Tre feel like part of his family. He responded to my messages promptly and sent daily pictures, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. When Tre returned home, he was happy, healthy, and clearly well cared for. I would absolutely recommend Jesus to anyone looking for a sitter who provides genuine care and attention. Thank you again, Jesus!”

“Shani responded quickly to take a last minute long term booking. She was very communicative & hands on with Malcolm. Felt very comfortable leaving my baby while out of the country.”

“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.”

“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!”

“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!!!”

“This was my first time using Sharon and all went well. She sent photos and videos of Lily and took Lily on frequent walks. She was quick to respond to my texts. I really appreciate Sharon’s responsible and professional nature. And when I picked up Lily at the end of her stay, Sharon gifted her a bag of treats and toys and a thank you note! I will definitely use Sharon again.”
“Tonisa was an excellent dog sitter. She took us at the last hour because our other dog sitter had an emergency. Tonisa provided us with pics and updates throughout the visit. I highly recommend her and our dogs will definitely be back.”
“Sandy was the best Sitter we've ever had. We were kept updated on how he was doing daily. Sometimes twice a day. We felt so comfortable after Sandy sent the first few pictures. Bruce is the most easiest dog to love and Sandy voice her concerns about his not wanting to eat and how he loves to cuddle and his insistence on daily head rubs. I suggest you book with Sandy. You will not regret it!!!”

“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!”

“Wow! Bola is the best:) She gave our girl such a good time, she went to sleep at 9 and is still tired today. That’s what you love to see. Would highly recommend this sitter for boarding, we will definitely be booking her again!”

“"Brandon is an excellent and reliable dog sitter. He provided exceptional care for my dog, Cookie, ensuring she was happy and well-tended to. I highly recommend his services for anyone looking for dependable pet care!"”

“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 am very particular about who I let be around my fur babies so finding Dominique was heaven sent! She’s amazing and does well with handling both of my pits who I know have tons of energy! I appreciate her a lot!”

“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.”
Riverdale dog parents share their Rover experiences
Shani (and her kiddos☺️) LOVED on my pup while I was away. Shani was an excellent communicator and sent update photos and videos, too. I really appreciated such good communication and how well Lady was taken care of. When you see your dog smiling in the update photos, you know it’s real. I’ll be looking to book Shani for my next trip away.
