“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.

“Tamara was absolutely amazing with Frankie! From the moment I dropped her off, I could tell she was in safe, caring hands. She kept me updated with regular messages and photos, which really put my mind at ease while I was away. It’s clear she truly loves and understands dogs, and Frankie seemed so happy and comfortable in her care. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and I’ll definitely be booking with her 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!”
“Matt and Leslie were amazing with Gunnar. He seemed to have a wonderful time. They were very communicative and send pics and videos daily. Their dog, Cooper, was an absolute sweetheart and was very easy going (didn’t even seem to mind when Gunnar stole some toys). I would highly recommend them!”
“If you are feeling uneasy about booking a person to care for your dog, look no further! Dayana is the absolute best and took phenomenal care of both my dogs. She kept me updated by sending videos and pictures. My dogs had the best time. She even did a cute photo shoot with my dogs. She was very attentive and loving to my dogs. Don’t think twice and book her! I’ll be selecting her for my upcoming trips.”
“This was my second time boarding with Candace and she was great!, her dog and mines get along really well and love to play with each other. She is constant with updates and provides great videos. I definitely recommend her! She’s awesome!”
“Barbara is AMAZING!! She is everything you could hope for in a person to entrust the care of your pet. She is extremely reliable, and takes her job very seriously, and does it with a very warm disposition. Our dog Lanie is older, and we wanted someone who would understand her needs. Barbara really delivered. She's like a dog whisperer. We received updates and pictures everyday, and Lanie was happy, well rested and given EXCELLENT care while staying with Barbara and Chewy. Her dog Chewy has a great personality too, and was a lovely companion for our dog to hang out with. She covered every aspect of Lanie's care with us beforehand in detail, and I have never been more at ease with leaving Lanie with her. We've had a lot of boarding experiences over the years, and Barbara is hands down, simply the BEST! We have already booked with her for another upcoming stay, and I am so happy to have found someone who is so dedicated and genuine. If I could give her 10 stars instead of 5, I would!”
“What can I say? This lady is an ANGEL and my son LOVES her. She makes you feel so comfortable and you can text and check on your fur baby at anytime. So happy that my son actual got to interact with other dogs and was given so much love like his mom would give. My son will be going back and I found my ANGEL that protects my son.”
“It was my first time using rover and they made it a great experience. Excellent communication! From answering questions to walking me through making a booking request the day before watching my doggo. Whenever I visit Chicago again and need a dog sitter; Susan will be my go to choice.”
“Tashea and Dushan did an amazing job watching my 2 month old American Bully. I was nervous because it was my first time away from her, but they kept me updated with pictures and videos and she looked super happy in every single one. I highly recommend them for dog boarding.”
