“Tanvi and her family were truly wonderful, as always! I can tell from all the photos and videos that Dante has the time of his life whenever he visits. He loves running around their large fenced backyard with the other doggies, snoozing on various comfy couches in their house, and getting all the pets & snuggles he could ever dream of. I would definitely go with Tanvi again (and again!) for future boarding.”

“Whitney and Michael T. are absolutely incredible! From the moment I met them, I could tell they are not just pet caregivers but true animal lovers with a wealth of knowledge about our four-legged companions. Their warm and loving family creates such a nurturing environment that I immediately felt at ease leaving our precious June Bug in their care. What really sets Michael and Whitney apart is their ability to provide younger pups with invaluable socialization opportunities. They create a safe and fun space for dogs to learn how to interact and just be dogs. It’s rare to find caregivers who understand this so deeply, and their patience is unmatched—even when a little accident happens (which, let’s face it, is inevitable with young pups). They handle everything with grace and kindness. Their training skills are nothing short of extraordinary. June Bug came home not just happy and well cared for but also better behaved! They went above and beyond, and I could tell they treated her as if she were their own. I truly couldn’t have asked for more. Michael and Whitney took the most amazing care of our girl, and I’ll absolutely be using their services again. If you’re looking for someone to care for your fur baby with love, expertise, and patience, don’t hesitate—Whitney and Michael are the best!”


“Camila and Omar are fantastic sitters. They opened up their home to my pup and he immediately became part of their family. This family is attentive, always gave updates and photos to ensure that we knew our pup was in great hands.”

“Tao took great care of our pups! He was great about keeping us updated daily with photos and videos. Our pups had a fun and relaxing stay, and it looked like they got along great with Tao's dog.”

“I have a 12 yr cockapoo who requires daily medication. Noria has been our overnight sitter since April 2024. She only takes one dog in addition to her own sweet Milo. Noria is incredibly kind, smart, professional, loves dogs and has a gentle/loving way in interacting with my Kobe. She has been truly a blessing to find! My family and I are assured that when we leave Kobe for an overnight with Noria that he is being cared for as if he is part of her family. Kobe can be an anxious dog and slow to warm up to people. She has a patient and playful disposition. From the first time he met her he was happy, calm and it was evident that he felt secure in her care. The medication and feeding instructions have always been followed and understood. We appreciate the photos she sends and the updates as to how he is doing. Noria is a genuine individual who has been a complete joy for our family to work with. We are so happy that she has been caring for Kobe. When we go away we know he looks forward to his time with Noria and Milo!”

“Jolanta was wonderful with my puppy! My pup loved her the very first time we met for a meet n greet. Jolanta is warm, friendly and welcoming. She is gentle with dogs and treats him like her own baby! Highly recommend Jolanta to anyone looking for a loving and caring home away from home for their dogs!”

“Lucy was q great care taker for our golden retriever when he stayed with her for a week. She sent us updates and videos about him regularly. We knew from the start that he will be in good hands and he was. Thank you Lucy!”

“She is the best dog sitter I have ever met. She sent photos and videos every day so I could tell my dog had a really great time with her and her dog. She accommodated drop-off & pick-up on our schedule as well.”

“Joanne was fantastic and made me feel she would protect (and spoil) my two high-energy dogs. Joanne was very responsive and kept us updated frequently. I would 100% recommend. Thank you, Joanne!”

“Samantha was great. My dog is pretty anxious, but Samantha made her feel comfortable, and my dog seemed perfectly happy when I picked her up. I would be happy to book with Samantha again.”

“I’m so thankful I found Kristen! She is such a kind and caring person and instantly my pup took to her without hesitation! She answered any questions I had and gave reassurance. We were gone for a few days and missing our dog so receiving photos and seeing her happy was a great feeling/experience! Highly recommend!”

“I can’t say enough great things about Lisa and her family. They were great with our dog and treated her like a member of their family. I’m so glad we found her and we don’t have to worry about leaving our dog.”

“Enzo had a fabulous time with Brian and his family. From drop-off time till pick-up after a few nights (we were having work done in the house), Enzo was super excited to meetup and stay with Brian. We were constantly updated by Brian all through Enzo's stay. Best part was Enzo made a very nice set of friends with Brian's & his son's dogs. Being part of their family was a great experience. Definitely recommended and will repeat!”

“We have used Amy several times, she replies quickly and has been very pleasant and flexible to work with when dates had to be changed. She took great care of Shadow and sent photos. Shadow is happy to go back to Amy and have fun playing at with her pups.”

“Gerry watched our 5 month old Maltipoo puppy Rocket this evening. He had a blast playing with her. Gerry sent us a bunch of updates and photos throughout the evening. She is very responsive, personable, clearly loves dogs and knows how to watch them. We will definitely use her again in the future and would recommend her to others as well. This was our first time leaving Rocket with a sitter and we got lucky in finding Gerry.”

“Purvi was so great and very attentive to my 5 month old pup! He spent 2 nights with her and was very well taken care of. Great communication during his stay helped our peace of mind while we were away. Highly recommend! Thank you Purvi :)”

Skillman dog parents share their Rover experiences
I had a wonderful experience with this pet boarding service by Chandrasekar. The boarding process was very smooth from start to finish, and the caregiver took the time to understand all the instructions regarding my pet’s food, routine, and special care needs. Communication was excellent throughout the stay, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. What impressed me the most was how relaxed and comfortable my pet seemed. Usually, my pet takes some time to adjust to new environments, but this time it was clear that they felt safe, cared for, and well looked after. I received updates and could tell my pet was getting plenty of attention and affection. I would absolutely recommend this boarding service to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring place for their pet, and I will definitely use them again in the future
