“Chloe is a shy and cautious puppy. Janet sent me updates frequently during her stay. She cared about her happiness and went above and beyond to become friends with Chloe. I really appreciate her love for Chloe. I will definitely book with her again in the future. Now I can travel guilt free knowing my puppy is in good hands.”
“Shani responded quickly to take a last minute long term booking. She was very communicative & hands on with Malcolm. Felt very comfortable leaving my baby while out of the country.”
“Amy was the best …. Took amazing care of my fur baby I knew he was in good hands ❤️ got pictures and videos and updates really made me feel at ease with everything while I was gone”
“This was our first time leaving our not-quite-two-year-old frenchie with someone other than family. I was a nervous wreck dropping him off. Not even 24-hours later, my nerves were calmed. Sandy is wonderful. She took him for walks, sent texts and pictures, and was honest in how our dog was doing. After seeing them snuggling together in pictures, I could tell he was being well taken care of. I'm already putting our dates together to book her for future dates. I highly recommend. Thank you, Sandy!”
“Nemo took to Kathleen right away. She kept him busy with walking and playing with her children. She is a dog lover! He is as in good hands. Sent several pics too. Would definitely ask her to sit again.”
“So thankful for Kyla & Barbara (her mom) for taking care of Drogo! Drogo’s very happy. They have updates with photos & videos everyday. They are very sweet & accommodating. We even did a video call because our daughter missed Drogo so much! We’ll definitely book them again when we visit the area. ❤️?”
“Mercedes is great with my Poo. He is fully engaged with other dogs his size & loving humans for when he taps out🤣. I’m completely at peace when I drop him off…the picture collection confirms her attentiveness & care for our dogs 🐶.”
“Tonisa did a wonderful job taking care of my doggies. This was my first time using this site and was not disappointed. She went above my expectations and I’m a really anxious person when it comes to leaving my dogs in someone else’s care. Will definitely love for her to care for my dogs in the future. This is better than boarding facilities!”
“Tabitha is the best. Have recommended her to friends. Our pup basically has a fun filled vacation of her own every time we go on our human vacations. Tabitha takes great pics too!”
“Tanisha and Darrius did an excellent job with an overnight say with my pup. I had a last minute trip I needed to take and they were available and willing to help me out. There communication was excellent and informative. My dog who is usually stressed in rush situations and gets sick, came home happy, healthy and rested well. Items I had forgotten like his blanket were provided by them for his comfort. I received pictures of his daily activities from nap time to playing in the back yard with some new friends. My dog was not ready to come home when being picked up and that's exactly the kind of stay I was hoping he would have. I was at ease of his well being during my trip and will be utilizing Tanisha and Darrius many more times in the future.”
“I'm so grateful for Iman! My senior dog got sick the day before my trip; she was flexible with the drop-off time so that I could get him to the vet before bringing him over. I'm always anxious about leaving my dog if he's not feeling well, but Iman is so attentive and communicative I had total peace of mind while I was out of town. When I picked up my dog he was in a great mood and his appetite was coming back. Thanks so much Iman!!”
“E.K. was a miracle send. I was in a pinch where my original sitter cancelled last minute (days before I had to leave on a two week trip); all the while I was going through some family issues, and finding a back up for boarding my baby was so stressful. E.K. stepped in to help when needed, and all was as smooth as I could’ve hoped for. She even helped transport him. Definitely took a weight off of my shoulders and very glad I found her. Would definitely use her again.”
“Victoria was very communicative and sent lots of pictures. She understood how it might be hard to leave them for more than a day, and was kind. She followed instructions and kept me informed!”
“Kendra takeaway excellent care of our dog when we are away. She provides ample communication and photos of Rogues stay while we are away putting our mind completely at ease. I would definitely recommend her services.”
“Manuel was so good to my baby Luna!!! He agreed to a last minute booking for me during a week long vacation. He sent daily photos and updates and was very responsive to messages throughout her stay. We will DEFINITELY book with him again!”
“Kamiah and Casius took great care of our dog, Ziggy, over the holidays. They were easy to communicate with and sent a daily video to let us know Ziggy was doing ok. Drop-off was quick and easy, and Kamiah kindly brought Ziggy back to us at the end of the week. Would definitely recommend!”
“Bridget was amazing with our dog, Miller. Miller has separation anxiety and can be a hit or miss with sitters, but he warmed up to Bridget and her family right away. Great communication and felt extremely comfortable. Would highly recommend to let your dog stay with her family and pup of her own who is both adorable and friendly.”
“Megan was so sweet!. This was the first time we needed to board our baby for a few days. Megan eased our worries. She was in contact with us throughout the day. She sent lots of pics of our baby. Definitely will be a return customer!”
“This is the second time Harper has stayed with Bola - she is amazing with him. Whenever I drop him off, he just forgets about me. She's super attentive, ask questions when she's unsure, and checks in enough to give me comfort. Would return asap!”
Washington Heights dog parents share their Rover experiences
Shani was the best choice for our fur baby! I was worried about leaving our baby, Stone, for so long, but Shani made me feel comfortable. She sent me pictures and communicated with me continuously throughout the stay. I could see Stone opening up and enjoying himself. I’m so grateful for her loving care and warmth. Shani is definitely like extended family now, and Stone won’t be staying anywhere else. If you care about your fur baby and want them to be well-loved, book with Shani.
I had a great experience! Thank you so much for taking such good care of Tony over the past few days. I could tell he was comfortable, happy, and well taken care of. I really appreciate the updates and the attention you gave him. I’ll definitely be recommending you to others and booking with you again in the future!
Tashea’ and Dushanbe were wonderful with my dog! They really saved me when I needed a last minute placement over the holidays. They sent updates throughout the stay and were quickly responsive to messages and questions. My pup came home happy and energized, a big difference from when she’s stayed at Kennels. I would definitely use them again!
We had the best experience with Khala. While we went out of town, we decided to board our boy, Zeus. We met Khala at a dog park and everything went so well. Khala is very friendly, warm, professional and very experienced with pets. She is accommodating and very prompt and super flexible with our last minute schedule changes. We will def be using Khala for our upcoming trips. Zeus was very happy staying at her place and she provided photos/updates while Zeus was staying at her place.
Ella did a great job with Winston - a 20 week old puppy. It is not easy to take care of a teething, high-energy puppy. We did not know what to expect as this was the first time Winston was boarded with someone he didn't know for several days/nights. We received frequent updates with pictures. Winston enjoyed playing with her dog and fenced back yard. He didn't want to leave. We will definitely leverage her services in the future.
