“The absolute best! We do not live close to Kimberly but the level of care and love she and her family give to both our babies makes the travel absolutely worth it. She makes our pets apart of her family and they absolutely adore staying with Kim. Highly recommended!”
“Gabriela and Richard were so kind and sweet with my toy poodle! They even took her on little adventures to get doggie ice cream and nice walks around the neighborhood, aside from plenty of outside time in their own fenced-in backyard! Gabriela was super great about texting updates and super cute pics of my girl! And they even got her to eat a good bit while I was away even though she usually tries to go on a hunger strike in my absence. Gabriela met us for like 15 mins at the local park before boarding and got to know my dog and garner some info from me, which I really appreciated and not a lot of boarders do that! My girl was very happy when I picked her up and I would absolutely rebook Gabriela and Richard! Highly recommend!”
“Laurianne and Sven were amazing! They sent updates and pictures each day and I felt like my pup was in good hands the whole time. Will definitely be using them again on future trips!”
“Maria is such an excellent sitter ! My dog Zion loves to go to her house, and I feel so comfortable leaving him with her ! Highly recommend booking with Maria !”
“Brian did a fantastic job watching my dog, including giving medication 2x per day, and dealing with her anxiety being away from home. He was also flexible and accomodating when my travel plans unexpectedly fell through. Would definitely use Brian again in the future!”
“I love and trust leaving Elly with Doug and Deb! They treat her like family and I know Elly loves hanging out in their yard! Elly is looking forward to staying with them soon!”
“We couldn’t be happier with our experience! Both of our dogs absolutely adored their time with Jackie and her family, our pups miss them already. Every day we received plenty of photos and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was obvious they were being loved, spoiled with attention, and enjoying lots of playtime. They came home happy, healthy, and tired from all the fun. We’re so grateful for the incredible care and will definitely be booking again!”
“Sophia and Andy were super accommodating. Never had to ask for a picture because they were on top of it. You can tell how much they care for pets. Made me feel like my dog Morrie was really well taken care of. Morrie came back happy and content :) Definitely recommend. Thanks so much again”
“So friendly and accommodating to me and my Santi boy. He seemed so happy and comfortable arriving home so i KNOW he had a great time. Charise is a true dog lover and i look forward to booking with her again. Thank you!!”
“We have used Rover for a number of sitters and walkers in the past, and Janette and Charlie are the first ones we've used more than once! They send a ton of photos and videos, and are incredibly flexible with drop-offs/pickups. I know my dog is always in good hands whenever she stays with them!”
“It was Ari’s first overnight stay after we adopted him two month ago. And in addition he is a very leash reactive dog. So of course we worried. But we shouldn’t have. Joe is very good. He doesn’t just love dogs, he definitely knows their psychology and is a good trainer too. Joe also kept us at ease by sending lots of pictures and videos. Ari was very happy staying there, he got to play a lot with Joe and his dogs and also got his daily cuddles.”
“Julia was absolutely wonderful with my dog, Sammie. Sammie is very shy and can take time to warm up to new people, but Julia was so patient, understanding, and gentle with her. She sent frequent updates, photos, and videos where I could easily see how comfortable and happy Sammie was in her care. It’s clear Julia truly loves dogs and treats them like her own. I felt completely at ease while I was away and would trust her to watch Sammie again in a heartbeat!”
“Guadalupe was great with my Rudy! Very attentive. She kept me up to date with updates on him. I felt comfort leaving my sweet boy with her while I traveled for work. I plan on booking with her again in the future. Thank you so much!”
“Arlene was a great sitter for our energetic puppy. This was our first experience leaving our puppy for an extended period of time, and having our puppy stay with Arlene was the best thing we could have done. She was very attentive giving Bailey frequent walks and kept us updated with daily pics. We’ll be sure to use Arlene again!”
“Camille was wonderful with our dog, Molly -- a 70 pound Labradoodle rescue. She sent frequent pictures and comments during Molly's 1 week stay --- which were most welcome and confirmed that Molly was having a swell time. Camille has a large fenced in yard where Molly hung out -- a real treat for her a we live in an apartment. Molly came home calm and not at all stressed. I highly recommend boarding your dog with Camille.”
“This was our first time using Rover, and we could not have been happier with Jan. She genuinely cared for Niko for 8 nights. I know she made him feel loved and well cared. Our Niko doesn't warm up to everyone easily he’s a 14 year old Shiba Inu he doesn’t like to be alone, but he warmed up to Jan as days went by. Jan was absolutely amazing she took such great care of Niko. I had peace of mind receiving regular updates and photos while we were away. Our Niko came home happy, clearly I am sure he was well cared. We truly appreciate the kindness, professionalism, PATIENCE and attention Jan gave my Niko he’s my first furry child in my family. I know she had a hard time with him because he was anxious and howling a lot, but I greatly appreciate her patience!!! We'll definitely return to Jan for her services. THANK YOU Jan! 🙏☺️”
“Shout out to Jasmine! Such a great experience with her! My dog Bulleit is a high-maintenance Border Collie who needs a lot of attention from his humans, so finding the right sitter has always been challenging and honestly gives me a lot of anxiety. And Bulleit said Jasmine is his favorite sitter, since he usually roasts me and barks at me for at least 1mins upon his pickup from daycare/boarding, but this time there’s no complaint🤣 Jasmine made everything so easy for me😭She’s incredibly caring and loving, and she kept me updated on how my dog was doing with lots of cute pictures. You can also tell that she has plenty of experience with different kinds of dogs and really knows how to make them feel comfortable. And doggos don’t lie, you can simply tell from their behavior whether they like their sitter and whether they’ve been treated well. I could tell that my dog felt genuinely happy, comfortable, and secure staying with Jasmine. For the first time, I was actually able to relax while I was away instead of constantly worrying about him. Highly recommend!! ❤️🐶”
“Ruben did such a lovely job caring for our pittie, Aegon, in a small, mixed dog environment. We got a happy pup back and he had a chance to socialize in a safe setting while we were away. Totally confidence to use Ruben again for our pups.”
“Ian took great care of our senior pup, Rocky. He took very detailed notes ahead of Rocky’s stay and lots of feedback following his overnight. Ian communicated with us regularly, and responded to questions very quickly, both before and during Rocky’s stay. We plan to have Rocky stay with Ian again very soon.”

“This was our second time having Kelly sit for our two cats and the experience was just as great as the first. She is awesome and really takes great care of our girls while we are away.”
“Karli was great! She was really thorough with daily updates and to my surprise, my apprehensive natured cats, felt very comfortable to interact with her. Thanks again, Karli!”
“Heather is Amazing with our Fur babies!! She treats them both like her own :) I would highly recommend her to anyone who needs help with their fur babies!! Thanks again so much for all your help!!”
“Beth was an amazing sitter! She was responsible, extremely attentive to our cat Django, and provided thorough updates complete with photos. 10/10 recommend Beth!!!”
“Kat was great and very attentive to Jonas. She picked up that he needs a lot of attention. She gave detailed notes, took a ton of pictures, and I could tell he was in great hands. I would trust her to watch him any time.”
“Kind, patient & professional, Coleen went above and beyond to care for our cats. She was very communicative, provided detailed updates, and left our home in great shape. We would recommend Coleen and rely on her to look after our cats again.”
“This is our second time having Amanda care for our cats Puma and Lynx. She’s so reliable, kind, careful, prompt and professional. I always feel sad when I’m away from my kitties on a trip but knowing that they’ll be in Amanda’s care puts my worries at ease. Also my cats are shy but she manages to have them sneak by for a photo and maybe some pets”
“Keri was very easy to work with and quick with responses. Our interaction with her during a meet and greet leading up to a house sitting has also led us to recommend Rover to more people. She has done drop in visits for our cats and we are very pleased with her care.”
About: My husband and I have always been dog people. Growing up he had two labradors and I had a beagle. When we bought our house we adopted a senior lab. We spoiled him as much as we could and loved him unconditionally. After losing Ceasar two years ago, we walked into an animal shelter and that's where our baby, Uru-Kai, stole our hearts. I don't work on weekends, I have holidays off and the summer off. I already have a dog so I know how important it is to stick to a routine. Our current dog goes out on four walks a day. If he needs to go potty because he drank too much water we let him in the back yard. If he seems bored he rings the doorbell to be let in the backyard. When we need to leave the house our dog is put in his crate to ensure that he's safe and stays out of trouble while we're gone.
“Karina is AMAZING! So flexible and so caring. We will only be booking with her moving forward. She’s wonderful and so attentive to our animals and communicative with us.”
“Rhianna was very communicative and provided great updates about Momo. She was also very kind and flexible with rescheduling the meet and great due to family illnesses and modifying the visit when our geriatric girl passed prior to the trip. She went above and beyond my expectations including cleaning the litter boxes more frequently, tidying around the litter boxes, food area, and Momo's vomit/hairballs.”
“2nd review coming in. This was my original booking with Chris, the second one was an emergency extension. But as I have said in the other one, Chris is a fantastic pet sitter who truly knows and loves animals. My furr baby was very well taken care off like we've never left and I will definitely come back to Chris at any point i need a pet sitter! Top marks!”
“Camille did drop-in visits for my cat. She was excellent. I appreciated that she kept his litterbox clean and sent several photos daily. I highly recommend Camille and will use her again.”
About: I have cared for cats in many of the homes where I’ve pet-sat, and I’m comfortable understanding and adapting to their unique personalities and energy. I appreciate their calm nature and have hands-on experience providing reliable care while their families are away. I’ve handled responsibilities such as feeding, cleaning litter boxes, and making sure they are comfortable and well cared for. However, I believe caring for cats is about more than simply meeting their basic needs, but about building a genuine connection with them. I take the time to earn their trust, respect their space, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away.
“Jackie took awesome care of my fur baby. Always on time, followed special feeding instructions & sent plenty of pictures of drop by visits. Would definitely rebook when I need to head out of town.”

“Hands down one of the best sitters EVER! My cuddle bug had been going to her previous sitter for about 5 months and was still trying to warm up to them. However, after a week with Jonelle, Gina was wiggling her butt ready to go. One day she just walked into Jonelle's house without turning back to say bye or to whine. She's truly amazing and makes sure your dogs are treated as part of her family. Her family is just as great about letting your dog have space and build up comfort to bond with them. If you want someone who has great communication, is compassionate, and loves on your dogs (to the point you might consider your dog a traitor) then Jonelle is absolutely the person for you. All around a great person and sitter.”
“Jackie saved the day, offering to sit for my dog CoCo when the other sitter failed to come through for me. She is kind, thoughtful, responsible, and communicative, and I love her Black Cat! I recommend her whole-heartedly. :)”
About: I am a sound healer, wife, mother to my 2 daughters, and animals. My husband is a city of chicago worker and we love the chicago area :) We are very active and love to go on long walks and love being outside! I absolutely adore animals and love to spend time feeding the feral cats in my neighborhood. In my spare time I also love to go to the local park with my daughter to watch the squirrels and birds. I love nature. I am good with all types of animals and they love me! We have 1 dogs and 4 cats. Our dog, Mochi, is very friendly and loves making new friends whenever she can. I truly love watching and meeting new animals and enjoy this type of work. Your pet will love it here and I cannot wait to meet and take care of them. Please reach out so I can help you with your pet needs! My schedule is open and flexible. My sound healing job varies but typically does not get in the way of pet sitting/ dog walking. Most days I am at home with my toddler or we are out exploring the parks. We have many pets in our home that we care for. I love to work with lists to help me to ensure all tasks are completed and that I am organized.
About: I’ve been a lifelong dog lover and hands-on caregiver. I raised my own dog from the time I was 15, so I have real experience caring for a dog through every stage of life, from energetic younger years to senior care. I understand the importance of patience, routine, and paying attention to changes in behavior or health. In addition to caring for my own dog, I’ve babysat family pets many times and am comfortable with both large and small dogs. I take pet safety and comfort seriously and treat every animal as if they were my own. Whether your pet needs playtime, calm companionship, or extra TLC, I’m attentive, gentle, and dependable. Pet care is now my full-time focus, which means I have a flexible schedule and can dedicate plenty of time and attention to every pet in my care. I'm available throughout the week and on weekends, making it easy to accommodate a variety of schedules, including last-minute requests when possible. I plan ahead to make sure any pets in my care receive consistent attention, exercise, and companionship. Pet care fits well into my routine, and I’m reliable about sticking to schedules and instructions so your pet’s day stays as normal and stress-free as possible. When caring for pets overnight, my priority is safety, comfort, and keeping their routine as consistent as possible to your dogs needs. I make sure pets have a calm, secure environment and follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, and any special needs. I’m attentive to behavior, energy levels, and comfort throughout their stay, and I never leave pets unattended for long periods of time. I keep spaces clean, pet-safe, and free of hazards, and I’m careful to respect boundaries, especially for pets who may need time to adjust in a new environment. I provide regular updates so owners feel confident and at ease while their pets are in my care. Whether your pet needs playtime, quiet companionship, or extra reassurance overnight, I treat them with patience, respect, and the same care I would give my own.
“I need a pet sitter when my dog had a surgery and have to wear a cone . Camille took Benny on a short notice. He had a great time with her and her husband Joe . He came home happy and exhausted from playing and walking. I cannot thank her enough for all the love and care they provided Benny during his stay. We are lucky to have found her . I have already recommended her to my friends . Benny will sure come back.”
“Arlene pup-sat our lovely 3 month old puppy, who came home happy and tired. I would recommend her for all ages. She is a warm, caring person and I felt that our pup was in good hands.”
“We could not ask for a better first experience. Tanya took excellent care of our new puppy. From potty breaks to play times she was there with him sending updates and pics. We were able to enjoy our night knowing he was in good hands. Thanks again.”
“1st impressions is everything. It was Friday and we needed a puppy sitter on Sunday for Kira. Our first time using Karina and she took our Kira with open arms and a smile. Taking care of Kira included not just feeding and potty breaks, but also socializing with her dogs and a couple of videos of play time. THATS LOVE! Highly recommend her for puppy/dog parents who want a pleasant experience for that special member in the family. When we took Kira home, she was so exhausted from the fun she had with the other dogs, she was asleep for the rest of the night.”
“Our pup loves going to Erica and Ricardo’s for daycare. She’s an anxious girl, but she gets so excited when we pull up and runs into the house as soon as we get there. She gets lots of playtime and love, and we get cute pictures and updates. Would definitely recommend them!”
About: As a child of a mother who was raised on a farm, we always had dogs, cats, bunnies, hamsters, gerbils, fish and birds growing up. As an adult that trend continues. Since 2012 I've been involved in dog rescue. Between volunteering at Chicago Animal Control and Care and fostering dogs with ALIVE Rescue, Be Fido's Friend and One Tail at a Time, I've learned a lot about animal health, happiness, welfare, training, dog introductions, play, etc. I started my Rover business while my now deceased and beloved Pit Bull, Stella, was battling cancer. The bills were mounting and doggie daycare has been a blessing. Stella loved the doggie company and I was able to provide quality care for her. Fast forward a couple years later and I now have regular clients and a new ones that love my testimonials. We're open for business and are excited to meet your beloved fur family members. Your dog will be lovingly cared for while staying with me. **PS - if I'm not available the dates you need, message me anyway. We'll discuss your pet and I may be able to make an exception. Also, if you're looking for a few hours a day daycare, please message me. Options! Thank you. I have worked full time from my home for years, and have routines in place that my pack and visiting dogs appreciate. We have plenty of breaks during the day for a backyard play and sunshine in my fenced back yard. During inclement weather, we have a basement play area. With 11 years experience fostering every demographic of dog, I have the experience to assure my fur baby guests are safe, needs met and are happy. I have a detailed client profile that I ask my client's parents to complete that helps me to provide the very best environment based on their unique needs. I am unable to accept unneutered males (medical exceptions may apply). Dogs must be dog and human friendly. For the most part, we are a cage free environment where doggie guests are able to interact and be safely socialize with each other.
“Janessa was absolutely amazing! Her communication to understand my dog prior made me feel so comfortable, and the attentiveness/updates while Berkeley was at her home made me feel so reassured and trusting. Janessa’s home is the perfect place for your doggo to spend time at - I absolutely recommend you choose Janessa for your fur-paninis’ needs!!”
“My shy, anxious beagle had a blast at Valerie’s, didn’t want to come home! I appreciated Valerie’s patience, flexibility, and ability to be both laidback with my pup while also giving her space to indulge her zoomies. Plus, we got lots of pics throughout the day. Thanks for a wonderful stay, will use again!”
“David and his girlfriend were absolutely wonderful with Maeve. They sent me multiple photos and videos of Maeve throughout the day and kept me updated throughout her stay with them. They cared & loved her just as they would their own. I definitely plan to rebook with them again, and I highly recommend!!”

“David was great with our pup Chase. He's usually very shy and slow to warm up to people. However he really took to David and Pinto super quickly. David shared pictures and videos of them playing and sleeping throughout the day. I would definitely recommend him for any dogsitting needs.”
“Bere looked after Bruno all day yesterday. She provided regular updates and photos, which I appreciated. Overall, I'm satisfied with her service." And also for her patience thank you bere.”

“Karina has been one of the top consistent walkers over the past year. Maisey simply adores her and we are blessed she is part of our routine. I would highly recommend her.”
“Leslie was amazing with our dog, Bucky! Bucky is a stubborn Shiba Inu, but with her patience and kindness, Leslie won his trust and heart over. She was also very understanding and attentive to his needs. We could tell that she really cared about him like we do. We are forever grateful to her and would definitely rebook and recommend Leslie to our friends and family!”
About: I'm life-long dog lover with 20+ years pet care experience. Ever since attending dog shows at McCormick Place as a kid, I have been a true dog lady (I verge on "Best In Show" levels of ridiculous love for every dog I meet). I provide care and affection to dogs and cats of all ages and sizes with a range of different needs. I'm particularly fond of small breed and senior dogs. I have my own Chihuahua-Shih Tzu-Pekingese mix Martin who loves other dogs and cats (I rescued him from One Tail at a Time - poor guy spent 8 months in shelters so he is super comfortable befriending small and large dogs alike). I'd love to go for walks with your animal friend or stay in and cuddle, whatever he or she prefers. My full attention is on your buddy. I'm more than happy to maintain your pet's routines and schedule and to accommodate any special requests - I've administered insulin and oral medication, assuaged separation anxiety, and I've even cared for a tiny Brussels Griffon who ate scrambled eggs every morning. My goal is to make your dog or cat's care as comfortable, seamless, and loving as possible. I can give your pet my full attention at all times! Happy to oblige their needs and give them all of the affection, treats, and specialized care they could possibly need. I keep a watchful eye on pets in my care at all times. I can avoid other dogs on walks if needed. If house-sitting, I'm happy to water plants, check mail, tidy up, turn lights on/off, accept deliveries, and more.
“Joshua was wonderful! He responded right away and was flexible when I switched some of the details last minute. I'll definitely be using him for walks in the future. Thank you! :)”
About: Growing up with a larger family I have always been used to a much hectic environment. I’ve been around much vocal and less vocal pets and it’s always awesome to see what personality you will get with your fur baby! I would love to be able to play and most importantly keep your pets safe. I dedicate about all of my time to making sure all pets are well taken care of. I also love going to my nearest shelter and love to take out the pups out on walks and love to keep up with my shelters announcements. Whether they need fosters or donations I’m always happy to help any pet in need! I would love to take care of your fur baby at anytime needed as I have open availability currently and would be free for you and your pet! Growing up I have always made sure to do thorough research on what any pet must not eat or play with as I have always made sure to take the best care of any animal that comes into my home. I’ve had my home cat proof, dog proof, chicken proof, and even bird proof to ensure that no lovely pet ever gets hurt as I want nothing more than to have everyone of them live their best life!
“Michelle is great, she communicates well keeping me in the loop in case anything happens. I like that she uses the report card so I know when the walk has started/ended and what my dog did during. Thanks Michelle”
“I had back to back bunionectomies & was unable to walk our dog while my husband was out of town. Patrick came & saved the day……excellent with our 85 pound Shepherd/Goldendoodle mix!! He went above & beyond!! So grateful definitely will be using Patrick again!!”
About: I have taken care of my twin labs since they were 6 months old. I potty trained them, taught them how to walk up and down stairs. I walk them twice a day, play outside with them (weather permitting) and feed them and administer meds as needed I currently work part time in the evenings so I am available every day all day and on the weekends. I am available for late night visits as well I can easily crate your dog as necessary or spend time at your house with them so they aren’t lonely. Of course if the weather is nice we will go for a couple of walks or play outside
About: I’ve had pets my whole life! And I worked at a dog shelter for 8 months before going to school and I loved every second of it! I do have a job! However I will do my best to make time usually dog check in are best at the moment or dog walking! I have two cats! Who are my world!! But I’ve worked with dogs for years I worked at a dog shelter and it was my favorite job ever!
“Doggies were so happy to see Chris! She was so patient and accommodating to walk them individually so they don't get into their protective pack attitude. Doggies enjoyed their walk! ”
About: I've been around animals my whole life, so caring for pets comes naturally to me. I currently have a cat and a dog, and I've also raised five puppies, which gave me plenty of hands-on experience with potty training, socialization, and creating healthy routines. I'm available Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 3:00 PM, with open availability on weekends. I'm happy to accommodate morning visits, midday drop-ins, and weekend pet care whenever possible. I care for every pet as if they were my own. In a client's home, I make it a priority to stick to their pet's normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and any special instructions. I always make sure pets have fresh water, plenty of attention, and a safe, comfortable environment. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind while they're away.

“Gabriela and Richard were so kind and sweet with my toy poodle! They even took her on little adventures to get doggie ice cream and nice walks around the neighborhood, aside from plenty of outside time in their own fenced-in backyard! Gabriela was super great about texting updates and super cute pics of my girl! And they even got her to eat a good bit while I was away even though she usually tries to go on a hunger strike in my absence. Gabriela met us for like 15 mins at the local park before boarding and got to know my dog and garner some info from me, which I really appreciated and not a lot of boarders do that! My girl was very happy when I picked her up and I would absolutely rebook Gabriela and Richard! Highly recommend!”
“Laurianne and Sven were amazing! They sent updates and pictures each day and I felt like my pup was in good hands the whole time. Will definitely be using them again on future trips!”
“Sophia and Andy were super accommodating. Never had to ask for a picture because they were on top of it. You can tell how much they care for pets. Made me feel like my dog Morrie was really well taken care of. Morrie came back happy and content :) Definitely recommend. Thanks so much again”
“So friendly and accommodating to me and my Santi boy. He seemed so happy and comfortable arriving home so i KNOW he had a great time. Charise is a true dog lover and i look forward to booking with her again. Thank you!!”
“It was Ari’s first overnight stay after we adopted him two month ago. And in addition he is a very leash reactive dog. So of course we worried. But we shouldn’t have. Joe is very good. He doesn’t just love dogs, he definitely knows their psychology and is a good trainer too. Joe also kept us at ease by sending lots of pictures and videos. Ari was very happy staying there, he got to play a lot with Joe and his dogs and also got his daily cuddles.”
“Camille was wonderful with our dog, Molly -- a 70 pound Labradoodle rescue. She sent frequent pictures and comments during Molly's 1 week stay --- which were most welcome and confirmed that Molly was having a swell time. Camille has a large fenced in yard where Molly hung out -- a real treat for her a we live in an apartment. Molly came home calm and not at all stressed. I highly recommend boarding your dog with Camille.”
“Shout out to Jasmine! Such a great experience with her! My dog Bulleit is a high-maintenance Border Collie who needs a lot of attention from his humans, so finding the right sitter has always been challenging and honestly gives me a lot of anxiety. And Bulleit said Jasmine is his favorite sitter, since he usually roasts me and barks at me for at least 1mins upon his pickup from daycare/boarding, but this time there’s no complaint🤣 Jasmine made everything so easy for me😭She’s incredibly caring and loving, and she kept me updated on how my dog was doing with lots of cute pictures. You can also tell that she has plenty of experience with different kinds of dogs and really knows how to make them feel comfortable. And doggos don’t lie, you can simply tell from their behavior whether they like their sitter and whether they’ve been treated well. I could tell that my dog felt genuinely happy, comfortable, and secure staying with Jasmine. For the first time, I was actually able to relax while I was away instead of constantly worrying about him. Highly recommend!! ❤️🐶”
“Ruben did such a lovely job caring for our pittie, Aegon, in a small, mixed dog environment. We got a happy pup back and he had a chance to socialize in a safe setting while we were away. Totally confidence to use Ruben again for our pups.”
“Ian took great care of our senior pup, Rocky. He took very detailed notes ahead of Rocky’s stay and lots of feedback following his overnight. Ian communicated with us regularly, and responded to questions very quickly, both before and during Rocky’s stay. We plan to have Rocky stay with Ian again very soon.”
“This was my first time using Rover, and Samantha was utterly amazing caring for my dog, Guru, who was recently adopted from a shelter. Guru is very social, and her dogs got along wonderfully with him. Since Guru and I are still getting to know one another, it was so comforting to receive regular text, photo, and video updates on how he was doing. Samantha was extremely gracious, attentive, and understanding throughout the entire stay. I highly recommend her services!”
“Sarah was absolutely amazing with Rocky! She treated him like he was part of her own family, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She stayed in constant communication, sent lots of pictures and updates, and it was clear from every message how much she genuinely cared about him. We never had to wonder how he was doing because she kept us informed every step of the way. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter and would gladly trust Sarah with Rocky again. Highly recommend!”
“Lauren and her family took such good care of our dog Sawyer! This was our first time being away from our puppy so we were worried she was going to be scared, but she had so much fun playing with their dog Zoe while we were away. Lauren sent us pictures everyday to let us know how she was doing. By the time we got back, Sawyer was already attached to Lauren, Zoe, and the rest of the family.”
“Jonelle is an absolute professional and very passionate about her work. She checked in regularly with a brief description of daily activities, and provided pics & videos of my pups during their extended stay. Response time was exceptional and was available every time I reached out. My dogs mean the world to me and I was able to enjoy my time away without worry of their care or well being. If you are looking for someone that’s dependable and efficient, Jonelle is definitely someone to consider without any hesitation. HIGHLY recommend. A simple thank you would not come close to expressing my gratitude.”
“Brian was great. He kept us updated throughout the stay with lots of pictures and regular messages. Marie seemed relaxed and happy when we picked her up. Thank you!”
“Christine did an amazing job caring for my senior dog. He does need extra patience and attention, and she provided just that. She kept me updated on his daily activities, giving me great peace of mind while I was away.”
“Christian was a wonderful boarder! Bear came back home after a weekend stay very happy. Christian had top-notch communication and sent me regular updates. He handled Bear with great care and attention. Would definitely recommend Christian to anybody!”
“Nic took such good care of Bailey! Nic was so responsive, sent so many pictures, and was so sweet! Bailey got so much love and went on so many walks! I would recommend Nic to anyone and everyone!”
