Holly is the kind of care you would hope to have with a 5 star review. Not only did she truly care about my pups, she treated them as one of her own and sent me frequent updates on how they were doing. I would definitely recommend her to anyone.

Angela is a gem! I was planning a road trip with my 7.5 year old Norwegian Elkhound, Grayson (med. size) from Terre Haute, Indiana to Clinton, NY to visit family just recently in October of 2025. There were a lot of pieces of the of the puzzle to figure out and I started my internet and calling search in August. I was going to be staying at my mother's Senior apartment complex, celebrating her 87th birthday, but they do not allow visiting/staying dogs. My brother lives nearby but due to teenagers coming and going and having a small dog I needed to find other accommodations for Grayson. I called, emailed and options were few and far between. Some boarding kennels were too expensive or already booked, or had rules that the dog must stay until final pickup. Independent pet/home sitters not on Rover did not return emails. I needed to be able to take Grayson out a couple of times during the trip so that my mom could see Grayson as well as enjoy some of the Clinton fun spots with him while there. I also needed to pick Grayson up for the weekend to visit relatives in Massachusetts, then return him for another pet stay the next week. Angela was literally the last person I reached out to (having never used Rover and was unsure at first to use the service) and she got what I was trying to accomplish! We had seamless communication through Rover for initial Q & A and then had a couple of video chats to confirm that this was a match! The Rover app is similar to Airbnb where communication, reservations, and payment are done over the platform. When it was time for travel, Angela let us know she was ready for us! Grayson stayed with Angela Monday through Friday with a mid-week pick up for an afternoon, then picked up Grayson for the weekend getaway visiting relatives. Then Grayson spent Monday through Wednesday of the next week with Angela. Let me just say Grayson fell in love with Angela and Angela fell in love with Grayson! Angela is very attentive with all the details, and all the things you bring to make your pup comfortable (meds, crate, blankets, etc all was handled with care!) Grayson loved all the walks and attention she gave him! It was fun making the drive from Clinton to Angela's, about a 30 min. drive and her town is so pretty, especially with the fall colors and stopping at the local museum and produce stands was so enjoyable. I felt totally comfortable the whole trip that Grayson was well cared for. Angela went the extra mile with lots of attention, walks, brushing and getting an extra bone when I forgot mine. Without Angela, this road trip would not have happened as I really wanted to bring Grayson and have my mom see him as time marches on and wanted mom to see Grayson before any more time went by. Angela made my dream trip come true! Grayson and I even had a side trip to Niagara Falls and I will remember this trip forever! I plan to do this roundtrip again and will definitely book Angela again! I recommend Angela as an exceptional pet/home sitter! For any travelers out there with itineraries like mine, you will be in great hands with Angela! Thank you, Angela, your care for Grayson totally warmed my heart! Your service and care were impeccable! When I set up the next road trip, I will be in touch! Kris A, Terre Haute, Indiana

Tracy is the best!!!! She made Paisley (2 year old lab) feel like she was at home! I loved the responsiveness and constant updates. It relieved any stress I had about boarding her for the first time. She brought her on lots of walks and was in her house a lot as well. You can tell she truly loves your dog and takes great car of them. Paisley and I are very happy we found such a great place to board her! ?

Research & clinical shadowing outside of NY meant I had to find a pet boarder this summer for my cat. I wanted to make sure he was left in good hands; Tyler was an outstanding sitter for my Mango 🥭🐈 Tyler took care of Mango like his own: taking him to vet visits, making sure to play with him, & sending me frequent updates. Thank you so much Tyler!

A wonderfully sweet and caring sitter who did a magnificent job taking care of my senior dog. She is very mature and professional. She was conscientious of my senior dogs limitations but still kept her active and engaged. She expressed initiative in helping out with my furbaby's care that wasn't anticipated was sooo appreciated. Would recommend her to everyone, and will definitely use her every future needs.

Teri did a great job caring for our boy Brody. She made him feel like part of the family, which is exactly what we were looking for. You could see in the daily pics she sent that he was happy and comfortable in her home. I would highly recommend Teri, and will definitely use her again in the future!!

I am so thankful that we found Debbie to watch our dogs. She was wonderful and really went out of her way to take care of our dogs and make sure they were comfortable during our short trip out of town. She didn't just watch the dogs, but interactws with them, creating activities to keep them mentally and physically engaged. She will be our go to person for watching our dogs in the future and I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone else looking for pet care. You can really tell that she is a caring pet parent and that extends to any dog staying with her. It was a nice bonus to get daily updates and pictures of how things were going. Thank you so much, Debbie!!!

This was my first time using Rover and I was very nervous with leaving my pup with someone I didn't know. From the beginning, Angel was very reassuring and comforting. She was available to answer all my questions and I could tell she knew what she was doing. During Wyatt's stay, Angel sent me plenty of updates, pics, and cute videos of her dogs playing with my Wyatt. I loved that Angel had a great setup and knew how to introduce my dog to hers. I especially loved that Wyatt got to use all his energy by playing and interacting with Angel's dogs. From the pics I could tell he was having a BLAST, to say the least. Wyatt will be coming back. Angel was amazing and I highly recommend Angel's services.
