“Jessica was great! Willow seemed like she loved staying there, was well taken care of and met some new friends. Very responsive to any questions that we had. We would love to have Jessica watch her again. Overall this was great as this is our first time using Rover.”
“Drako is not the easiest dog in the world. We love him dearly but he is definitely too strong for me and i am no weakling. Bruce was able to handle him and Drake loves Bruce. I knew he was safe so I could relax. Drako came home in a very good mood.”
“Rich was extremely accommodating with a last minute boarding. We did a meet and greet with his dogs the day before leaving and everything went great. His home and yard have a terrific, fully fenced set-up, and he sent pics several times during our dog's stay.”
“The BEST sitter! Our puppy always comes back happy and well taken care of! She communicates often and always sends pictures. We will always choose Yajaira!”
“We were very happy with our experience with Zarah. She was easy to communicate with, send a lot of pictures, and took great care of our dog while we were away. Would definitely recommend.”
“What a great experience for both me and my Golden Retriever! Nicole watched my dog for 3 weeks and she was always in communication with me. She was fast to respond and provided plenty of updates with pictures. She was professional, courteous, and attentive to my dog. I highly recommend Nicole to anyone looking for a dog sitter.”
“Michelle and her family were great with our two pups for a week! She sent updates and pictures daily and the pups always looked so happy! Walks every day and both came back really happy. Will definitely use again. Thanks Michelle!”
“Chestnut had a wonderful experience. I appreciated Lilliana sending me daily pictures of Chestnut so my daughters could see him enjoying his stay. Thank you again Lilliana for taking such great care of chestnut.”

“We have booked with Madison several times for our pups. Madison has been amazing with Holly and Murray every time they have stayed with her. She’s super reliable and really loves our pups, so we always know they're in good hands. Highly recommend her!”
“We are extremely happy with Suzanne’s care❤️, I was able to board my dog-tofu for 6 days to Suzanne for our little vacation. I felt like my dog was also at the vacation and enjoying his time away from us. We really appreciate this boarding experience. Her dogs are all well behaved and sweet. Even though my dog is not used to other people and dogs, he did not stop playing at Suzanne’s house. Thank you so much for everything ❤️❤️❤️”
“Amazing caregiving to our two babies (Tiger and Georgia) by Laura and her family! We left them with Laura for about 2 weeks. We loved it! We will recommend them to anyone. -Navarun and Michael”
“My experience with Dan on Rover exceeded all expectations and provided unparalleled peace of mind during our time away. From the moment I contacted Dan, their professionalism, warmth, and genuine love for animals were evident. First and foremost, communication was outstanding. Dan was prompt and responsive to all messages, providing updates and photos regularly, which greatly eased any worries we had about leaving Luna behind. Knowing that my pet was in caring hands and receiving the attention and affection they needed made my trip infinitely more enjoyable. Not only was the communication top-notch, it was evident that they took the time to understand Luna's needs and preferences, ensuring they felt comfortable and loved throughout their stay. Additionally, the environment provided by Dan was safe, clean, and welcoming, creating a home-away-from-home for Luna. I appreciated the accommodations made to accommodate my pet's routine and preferences, further demonstrating Dan's dedication to providing the best possible experience. We will undoubtedly be entrusting them with Luna's care while we are away in the future. Thanks Dan!”
“Jennifer was great. Our dogs took to her right away, and made it easier to leave them with her. She took pics throughout the stay, which was great to get updates while we were gone. Will definitely be using her again for future trips.”
“This is our second time to book the service from Jieun. They were very nice and friendly. They sent us many pictures and videos. Miaomiao likes them and Ollie very much! I would recommend for everyone to let them take care of your pets.”
“Kathryn took the BEST care of our two guys. Sent a ton of pictures, treated them like her own and I could tell they were super comfortable and loved. Would definitely book again!”
“I recently left my beloved furry friend with Christina for few days, and I couldn't be happier with the care she provided. Christina demonstrated exceptional communication throughout the entire time, keeping me updated with daily pictures and messages that truly put my mind at ease. Daily exercise is crucial for my dog, and I was pleased to hear that Christina took her outside to the yard regularly for play and exercise. Not only did my dog come back happy and healthy, but Christina also managed to create a bond that goes beyond the typical sitter-client relationship. It's reassuring to know that there are caring individuals like her on Rover. I highly recommend her services to anyone seeking a reliable and compassionate dog sitter. Thank you, Christina for your excellent service, and I look forward to booking with you again in the future!”
“Erika was very accommodating and gracious with updates about Apollo’s stay with her and her family. I would definitely recommend her for dog sitting services!”
“We have been looking for a “go-to” dog sitter since moving to the New Haven area this summer, and we’ve certainly found one in Noemi and David. We reached out on short notice, looking to board our dog for a long weekend, and they were nothing but accommodating. We were able to quickly schedule a meet and greet, visit their home, and socialize our dog with their family (and their dog, Milo). When we dropped him off there for boarding, we were as comfortable as we could be and had no hesitation in trusting Noemi and David to take care of him. We received great updates/videos over the weekend, and communication was consistently clear and prompt. Our dog seems to have settled right in and came home happily exhausted from plenty of play time this weekend. I can’t recommend Noemi and David enough. We won’t be looking to board our pup with anyone else as long as they’re available!”
