“Jo’Ell was wonderful, super responsive, and the dogs all loved her. We couldn’t believe how quickly they went with her at drop off, they were so calm and settled. She kept us updated throughout her time with them with photos and messages, and we knew they were in great hands. We would definitely love to have Jo’Ell watch them again, highly recommend.”
“River enjoyed her stay again and the drop off pick up was super easy and Justine was ready to go. They gave us photos each and kept us up to date. We will be back again. River enjoyed being able to hangout with the kiddos as she's a social people loving dog.”
“Connie was incredible! She was so sweet with Rocky, and great with communicating and sending updates/photos. I’ll definitely be using Connie the next time I’m out of town!”
“This was my dog’s first time staying anywhere without us . I was nervous first and keep texting Pennie to see how they’re doing . She was very patient with me and after one day I knew they are in good hands and I relaxed . She kept us updated throughout their stay and sent pictures . I definitely recommend her to others. she was great . Thanks Pennie.”
“Julie & Mark provided the BEST overnight experience for my dog, Elsie. They really cared for her as if she was their own and sent many cute updates with pictures. They kept her active in their fenced in back yard playing catch and playing with their dog.”
“The furbabies had so much fun at Jessica's and were "dog tired" the entire next day following their return home. Booking was easy, pick up and drop off were a breeze, and she even sent a video of the dogs playing! Will book again.”
“Kimberly was kind and truly cared for our dogs. In every photo she sent, our pups looked relaxed and happy. It was our first time leaving them with someone else, so we were quite worried — but all our concerns disappeared after just one day. We’re definitely planning to leave our dogs with Kimberly again. Highly recommended!”
“Kaya has stayed here a couple times and all went well. She enjoyed her stay, interacting with other dogs, and Lynda's nice back yard. Regular updates with video were great. We felt Kaya was very safe in Lynda's care. Lynda is very organized making drop offs and pick ups very easy.”
“Fantastic Dogsitter! We had a very bad experience with a previous Dogsitter and were worried about how our next sitter would be. We felt very comfortable with Jackie, her family and her lovely home, right from our first meet and greet. She is obviously a dog lover! She gave daily updates, with adorable pictures and went above and beyond when our boy had an open sore (see above) that needed to be tended to. We have definitely found a gem!”
“We boarded our 2 little guys with Rosarin for several nights and could tell they were very well cared for. We got updates via the app on their days felt relieved they were in excellent care. Would highly recommend!”
“My poodle mix, Melanie, used to have anxiety when she came back from the lodging we used to use. With Valentina, we got photos and text updates, and in all the pics, Melanie was happily wagging her tail. When I picked her up, she was so happy and excited! I couldn’t be happier with how Valentina cared for our baby!”
“A very loving family with lots of pet experience. They were able to teach my dog how to “drop” a ball after fetching. Before she would not want to give it up after fetching a toy. They also helped her learn how to get along with other dogs.”
“Kira was absolutely wonderful! From the very beginning, she was kind, friendly, understanding, and incredibly flexible. She made the entire experience stress-free and kept us updated with plenty of photos and videos of our dog playing with her dogs, which gave us so much peace of mind. Honestly, it never felt like we were leaving our dog with a stranger. Kira made both us and our dog feel so comfortable, and it was clear that she genuinely loves and cares for the dogs she watches. Our dog looked so happy, relaxed, and well cared for throughout the stay. I’m beyond impressed with the level of care and attention she provided. I wholeheartedly recommend Kira to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and loving dog sitter. We will definitely be booking with her again whenever we need a sitter. Thank you, Kira, for taking such amazing care of our furry family member!”
“Once again, Michelle and her family took incredible care of Bilbo! They truly treat him like one of their own, and it brings so much peace of mind knowing he’s getting just as much love as he gives. The regular updates and photos keep me completely at ease while I'm away. We couldn't ask for a better sitter and cannot recommend Michelle highly enough!”
“Christina’s family is so caring and loving! You can tell how much their kids enjoy hanging out with Milo and accepted him as part of the family. It’s so great to see how sweet their dog Brydie is too! I know he always has a great experience with Christina and her family 💗”
“Matt and Michelle took great care of our 2.5 year old Mae again! They treated her like family and she had a great frolicking with their family dogs and visiting guest dogs. Very accommodating with some minor changes to our plans. Thank you!”
“Michelle V was excellent for our first Rover experience! She was easy to communicate with and responsive. She also was flexible with pickup and drop-off as our times changed. Thanks, Michelle!”
“Eric was awesome and super accomdating to us with timing even though our flight was delayed. We couldn't be more grateful for that and also knowing Papaya was in good hands during her stay. Papaya got along really well with Axl and Eric's family. We saw lots of pictures and a tired dog is always a good sign that she had tons of fun!”

“Cynthia was fabulous! We got detailed updates and pictures during each visit. Our old cat, Polly, usually just hides when people come over, but Cynthia made her so comfortable that Polly was greeting her at the door. She usually gets left alone and it breaks my heart to leave her and it was so nice to know that she was being loved and cared for.”
“Paula did a great job with our two babies. We loved that she came onboard at the very last minute to help us. I tipped her, in gratitude, at the beginning. She’s terrific!!”
“This was our first time scheduling with Erika and we were thrilled with her service and communications. We have two cats with special needs and she catered to all. We will definitely book with her again!”
“Excellent care of two high energy cats the first time they were left with a sitter. I came home to find two very contented animals who seemed to have barely noticed we were gone.”
“Isabella was great with both my small dog and frisky cat. She gave each of them plenty of attention and paid attention to their quirky personalities. She was very conscientious and included in her notes each visit, her observations about my house including noting a small ant infestation which I appreciated!”
“I needed a last-minute drop-in visit for my rabbits while I was out of town, and she was able to help on very short notice. She communicated well, checked on my pets promptly, and made sure they had what they needed. I really appreciated her flexibility and willingness to help when I was feeling worried. I would definitely book with her again!”
“Stephanie very clearly cares about the animals she looks after and it is easy to see she has their best interest at heart. She also is able to read the personalities of different animals and caters her care to each specific animal. I am so glad she is around and will definitely call her again!”
“Victoria was awesome with our 2 cats! She took great care of them and followed our directions precisely. She even helped problem-solve an issue with the automatic feeder to ensure they would be okay after she left. My shy cat seemed very comfortable with her. I would absolutely book with her again. Thanks so much for taking such great care of them!”
“Happy repeat customer! Kassandra is amazing, incredibly responsible, and goes out of her way to do extra tasks that are not required but very much appreciated. My skittish kitties now recognize her, which is a huge relief for my family. We already have her booked for our next trip. Thank you again, Kassandra!”
“Mary took extra special care of our kitties and was even kind enough to water my plants. It gave us much needed peace of mind so we could relax while away! She was very flexible and easy to communicate with. I highly recommend her!”
“First time using rover for drop in visits and was a bit anxious to have someone in my apartment, but everything went perfectly. I got photos of my kitty playing every day and came home to her having full food and water + key where discussed.”
“Sarah took great care of our cat, Poof while we were Gone. Poof loved her morning visits and playtime and I loved the pictures we got everyday! That really made us feel good and at ease that she was being taken care of! We will definitely use Sarah again! Thanks!”
“Jessica and Luis are ah-mazing!! I reached it to them on short notice and they were still willing to meet with me and car for my 2 cats while I visited some friends for the weekend. It was my first time using a pet sitter so I was a little nervous but they made me feel at ease leaving Smokey and Pippa for a few days. They sent pictures and texted updates after each visit. Highly recommend them and will not hesitate to book with them again!”
“Nathalia took wonderful care of my cat, SunTie! She was very responsible, kind, and attentive, and followed his care instructions carefully. I really appreciated the updates and felt comfortable knowing SunTie was in good hands while I was away. I would definitely recommend Nathalia and would be happy to book with her again in the future!”
“She did a great job with my dogs Sutton and Chaz for weekend drop-ins! I honestly don’t know how she managed to walk both of them together, because Sutton can be a terrible walker, but I came home to two very happy dogs. Everything was taken care of, and it was such a relief knowing they were in good hands. I’d definitely recommend her!”

“This was my first time sending my puppy-Leo to a daycare. Darrilyn was amazing! She took really good care of my dog. She sent photos and kept me updated. Leo had a great time and he looked happy. I will definitely recommend her services and will rebook. ❤️”
“Jackie was amazing with my energetic boy Tucker!! He loved playing in her backyard and snuggling with her and her pups on the couch. He is tired and happy after picking him up. It was my first time dropping him at someone’s house for Rover so I was very anxious, however Jackie eased that immediately when I met her and her two cute pups. I will 100% use her services again next time I’m in the area.”

Michelle was incredibly communicative throughout the day, sent plenty of photos and updates, and made us feel completely at ease. It was obvious that she is experienced, caring, and truly loves dogs. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will absolutely be booking with Michelle again. Highly recommend!”
“This was Wag’s repeat stay which was just as good as the first one! So nice to know from the photos sent that she had a ball! Wags was so exhausted after she got home that she snuggled up on the couch and hit the hay. Thanks for taking care of Wags for us! Thank you Sonia & Greg!”

“Our dog had a wonderful day with Donna and her dog, which included plenty of outdoor play. Donna is patient, calm, and genuinely cares about dogs. We are happy that we found Donna and are looking forward to more visits in the near future.”
“Maria has been a LIFE SAVER for me. I work full time in Chicago and I needed someone who was able to take my dog M-F but I didn't want to bring my dog to an impersonal day care. That's when I found Maria. I really love that Oliver (my dog) is safe in Maria's home and also able to go to the dog park everyday. When I pick him up he is a very happy and tired dog! I could not have asked for a better situation and we consider Maria part of the family. She treats my dog as if he was her own and for that I am so thankful.”
