“Jen was great with our dog. She sent tons of pictures and updates. My dog came back healthy and happy. We will for sure use her again for sitting. Thank you Jen for taking such good care of Winston.”

“Donna was amazing! Her house is very dog-friendly. Nice yard for dogs to run around, she has a big room with crates if needed, she loves these dogs and does whatever she can to make sure they are happy and comfortable. I was able to book her last minute after my holiday plans changed and was so grateful for her. Will definitely be using her again in the future.”

“Jinay was literally the best sitter ever!! I’m always weary about leaving my pittie with separation anxiety with someone new but she just went above and beyond! She knew exactly how to deal with it and went above and beyond with her care. She even did a training day for her and another dog!! She sent me amazing adorable pics and vid’s all throughout her stay and I could see my dog was just having the best time! So glad I chose her :)”

“Very responsive and sent many pictures! No issues and felt our dog was well taken care of and paid attention too. Thank you so much for taking care of our baby and we will definitely be back!”

About: I have 15+ years of owning my own pets (dogs, fish, birds, and hamsters) and caring for other people’s pets. I feel comfortable feeding, bathing, walking and providing any other type of care the pet needs. I truly love animals and enjoy making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I have a six-year-old son who absolutely loves animals as well, so pets staying in our home should be friendly and comfortable around children. We are a caring, animal-loving home and can’t wait to meet and care for your pets like they’re part of the family! * If you prefer kid-free home, I recommend Friday to Sunday bookings. I am home full-time, so your pets will always have love, attention, and supervision throughout the day and will never be left alone for long periods. I’m able to take dogs out frequently for walks and potty breaks, and our apartment complex also has a fenced area where pets can safely run around and play. My goal is to make your pets feel comfortable, cared for, and right at home while you’re away! I care for every pet as if they were part of my own family. In my home, pets will receive constant supervision, plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, playtime, walks, and lots of love and affection. I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed while sticking to their normal routines as much as possible.
“We had Jennifer watch our older GSD Dolly for the first time this week. Jennifer and her husband took very good care of our girl, were very attentive to her needs. She sent pictures of a happy, smiling dog to us, which we appreciated. Looking forward to using Jennifer for a much longer stay in the near future. They are definitely dog people.”

“I can’t thank Melissa and her husband enough for taking care of my little guy. They both make the process so easy for dropping off and watching over your dog. They have a perfect sized yard for activities and are with your dog around the clock. I have never felt more comfortable leaving chip with them. My pup requires a lot of care for medical reasons. Melissa and her husband knew exactly what to do in regards to his meds. Chip came home with me exactly how I left him. I highly recommend to work with Melissa when boarding you dog.”

“Korin was such an attentive and AMAZING 5 star sitter for our Roise!! We went away on vacation for a week out of the country and she made sure to contact us every single day with updates as well as sending us lots of photos and videos in which we greatly appreciated! She did very good with our Rosie! 10/10 highly recommend to be used!! We will be using Korin again for the near future any time we are going away for sure!! Thank you Korin for everything!!”


“My Zuri recently spent some time with Sandy. She sent me pictures and videos of her playing and enjoying her stay. Sandy is awesome! She took great care of my puppy.”

“Rachel and Henrik (and their two wonderful kids!) watched our two Goldendoodles for the weekend, and we couldn’t have had a better experience. From the start, it was clear this was a perfect fit—we did a meet-and-greet beforehand, and instantly felt comfortable. Their home is beautiful, clean, and has a great backyard where our dogs had plenty of space to run and play. More importantly, our dogs were treated like part of the family—they got tons of attention, snuggles, and care all weekend. We also really appreciated the frequent updates and photos, which gave us total peace of mind. When we dropped them off, our dogs were so excited they ran right in without hesitation—that says everything. You can truly tell how much Rachel and Henrik love dogs and care for them as their own. One of the nicest families we’ve met, and we felt completely at ease knowing our dogs were so well cared for. We will absolutely be using them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for exceptional dog care.”


“We met Maria and she made us feel very comfortable. We left our dog JoJo with her for five nights for the first time with someone we did not know. She is a very caring person and you can tell she loves dogs. JoJo was a little apprehensive at first, but Maria made her feel comfortable and treated her well. Maria sent us pictures and videos and kept in touch every day .”

“Another great dog sitting adventure w John. The entire environment is fantastic. The family is extremely welcoming to their 4 legged pet over nighters. Thank you John and family-especially Laverne!”

“I can’t say enough about Vanessa and her family! We left our labradoodle with her for the weekend and received tons of videos, pictures and text messages about how Brandy was doing. The care she received from everyone in the family was top notch. I could see every day that she was playing, eating well and getting lots of love and attention! I am truly grateful.”

Ronkonkoma dog parents share their Rover experiences
Amber was absolutely amazing with our fur baby, Blossom! From the moment we left Blossom in her care, we felt completely at ease knowing she was in such loving and capable hands. Amber sent daily updates along with photos and videos, which we truly appreciated and looked forward to every day. It was so comforting to see Blossom happy, comfortable, and having fun while we were away. Blossom also enjoyed spending time with the other dogs, which gave her plenty of socialization and playtime. It was clear that Amber genuinely cared for her as if she were her own. When we picked Blossom up, she was happy, healthy, and well cared for. I highly recommend Amber to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable pet sitter. We will definitely be using her services again in the future! ❤️🐾

Kerri was a fantastic sitter for my active lab. She kept me updated and sent tons of pictures daily of him having the time of his life. They cared for him as if he was their own and I couldn’t be more grateful. Macallan cannot wait to stay with Kerri and her family again!

Catherine, made Fin & Daisy feel like part of her family. Catherine made an impression on them at our first meet & greet because Fin bounded out of the car to get to Catherine, Daisy’s legs are a bit shorter, but wagged like crazy to be picked up🐶🐶. Their happiness was met with equal joy, Catherine greeted them with open arms. What a peace of mind to leave them in such capable hands! This was Fin & Daisy’s first time being boarded & I can say with 💯 % certainty that we will use Catherine’s services again! Thank you so much for the pictures & updates of Fin & Daisy throughout the day - they looked like they were having a blast with your pups!!

Sabrina was absolutely wonderful to our big baby! Batman had the best time with Sabrina and her family. She sent us pictures and updates and made sure he was adjusting well to being away from us for a long weekend. I will absolutely be reaching out to her again in the future anytime we need someone, especially someone who will love our dog like we do.

Alex took care of Causi and Simba for a week even when we contacted him at the last minute. We received videos and photos of our dogs everyday. They played with other dogs and always had fun with them. Alex made them feel at home and he took care of them like his own dogs. We recommend Alex and hope he always has availability for our dogs.

I have to tell you I never left my baby before and was nervous and Jen and her family made me and nacho feel so comfortable. They treated him part of the family right away and he had the time of his life while was away I was so at ease and trusted her with all my heart . I got tons of videos and pics all day and he was in his glory and that’s all that matters amazing job Jenna Dan thank u again . I will never be using someone else she got our business forever thank u again xoxoxxo fantastic job if there is 10 stars that’s what she truly deserves

We had Jennifer watch our older GSD Dolly for the first time this week. Jennifer and her husband took very good care of our girl, were very attentive to her needs. She sent pictures of a happy, smiling dog to us, which we appreciated. Looking forward to using Jennifer for a much longer stay in the near future. They are definitely dog people.

Gabby is a great option for pet boarding. She is a very sweet and loving caregiver. My pup had a great time running around her back yard. He was well taken care of and I can tell he loved staying at Gabby’s “camp” for a week. She regularly sent updates and photos every day. I highly recommend Gabby.

This is the second time we’ve used Lindsay and we couldn’t be happier! Our 2 dogs are so well taken care of and she provides plenty of updates and pictures so we never have to worry! Our dogs love it over at Lindsay’s, she treats them like her own. Will definitely be using again in the future!

This is the first time we are using Fanjing but she did great job with Chopper. He is a loving dog yes but need a lot of attention. Her and her husband never left his side. Thank you for that especially. I would highly recommend her to everyone who is looking for sitter :)

Our doggos took an instant liking to Kyla, whom from this first instance of contact was so incredibly polished and professional and really helped put us at ease. She sent is pictures for updates and answered all of our questions. We will definitely be repeats, our dogs had a superb time and hardly missed us at all

Katlyn was great with my Joe. She sent me pictures and took great care of him. He is usually very anxious with new places but he did very well there. He seemed very relaxed when I picked him up. Also, my flight landed earlier and I needed to get him about 45 minutes earlier than expected. Katlyn was very accommodating. I will definitely use her again.

I am so grateful I found Alev! She took amazing care of my Havanese Chloe while I was away for a weekend wedding. Alev sent me photos, videos and many updates on her walks and her feeding schedule that confirmed my little girl was getting lots of love and attention. Alev completely put my mind at ease which allowed me to enjoy my time away. I could not recommend her services enough and look forward to booking time with her again!
