“This was Lisa's first drop-in visit with Bogey, who is a rescue , previously abused, and normally reserved around new people. He and Lisa got along very well. She took the time to meet Bogey in advance, arrived on time, and obviously cared about making him comfortable, something that is not easy to do. I was very pleased with the care Lisa gave him, and I will be scheduling her in the future. It is my hope that she will be my "go to" person when I need a dog sitter.”
“We are so grateful for wonderful Emma! She is incredibly sweet, thorough, and truly cares for our cats as if they were her own. The cats even wait for her to arrive each morning. She takes great photos to reassure us while we are away. We always feel at ease knowing they're in such loving and reliable hands. Highly recommend!”
“Pete is truly amazing. We haven't gone away or even done an overnight in over 3 years because of my reservations about letting someone watch our babies. Our baby Elf is high anxiety. He gets very nervous and anxious around new people. Pete did a few meetings just to put my mind at ease. As soon as we met him we knew he was a caring, genuine person and definitely an animal lover. He was very accommodating and always prompt. We were pleasantly surprised with how quickly Elf warmed up to him. Simba showered him with kisses right away. He sent us pics and updates. Our babies absolutely adore him. He played with them and easily gave Elf his meds. He treated them like his own. We will definitely keep using Pete and we're so relieved, grateful and lucky to have found such a kind hearted and dependable person. Elf and Simba can't wait to see him again. Thank you so much for everything.”
“Lisa is awesome!! Extremely responsible, respectful, punctual and exceptional at pet care! She took amazing pics of my kitty babies, showed up exactly when she said she would and overall just did an amazing job caring for my little fur babies. She also left my place immaculate and as though I never left!!”
“Lauren was fantastic with our cat Pepper. She was always timely and provided us with thorough reports about her visits. Pepper was well taken care of the whole time and as new cat parents she provided us with her helpful knowledge and experience. Lauren also thoroughly went through our needs during a visit before we went away. Her communication throughout was great. She also kindly brought in our packages that arrived and vacuumed up around the cat litter at the end. I really can't say enough about Lauren and would be thrilled to work with her once again.”
“Katie was great for my girls. She answered promptly and was very sweet to meet in person. You could tell she was an animal person right away. Thank you so very much!”
About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs for over 20 years. From training puppies (& lots of walks) to caring for aging dogs. I’ve enjoyed it all. I’m a stay at home mom to teenagers. I am happy to spend my time at home taking great care of your pet family members. We love having your pet in our home, but I do not take more than one or two pets at a time (1 family) and I don’t take boarding or care request that are more than two weeks long. I have a large fenced in backyard. I can also take care of pets in your home, but only full overnight on Friday & Saturday.
“Lauren is wonderful! I have kitties that need some specific medical care so having someone reliable is EVERYTHING. Lauren is always on time, is thorough, and always helpful and quick to reply. She sends me updates and photos of my boys to ease my mind when she cares for them.”
About: I’ve always had dogs until I had small children. So for right now i am not able to have dogs until they get older. But i enjoy playing with dogs and relaxing with them. Dogs are truly a great best friend. They are always there to help you feel better so as dog care givers we should be happy to return the good deed. Dogs have needs just like humans so it is important to do what you can to help dogs of all sizes and ages feel comfortable and happy. Pet owners love their dogs and sometimes don’t have the time in the day to care for them. So I am happy to lend a hand and help give piece of mind to those owners. I am able to assist with pet needs through out the day and am for the most part flexible during the week and most week ends and evening. I will be able to provide a safe environment at your pets home that is created for them in their space so they always feel comfortable and relaxed.
About: I have always been a lover of animals. I grew up with cats, dogs, rabbits, guniea pigs, and hamsters. Every single animal I’ve had has been given the love they deserve. Giving them all their play time, I have a huge fenced in yard for dogs to run around in and play fetch. If pets need their own space, I can accommodate that. If you need me to take extra time out for them I can offer that as well! I’m here to help! I am a hairstylist by trade for 27 years and love what I do, I work part time to be home more with my children. Being a hairstylist, I love helping my clients look and feel good. That being said, I figured I can help people in other ways as well and being that I love animals, why not help people with their pets by taking care of them! I take my dog on daily walks, except for Tuesdays and Saturdays but those are the days I work in the salon, but my husband takes our dog out. She also will go to my mother's house in the summer to swim with us as she absolutely loves the pool! Being that I am home most of the week, watching dogs fits well into my schedule. I will treat other people's pets as if they were my own. As long as they are potty trained, I will allow them to walk freely in my home, I have a huge fenced in yard for them to run and play. As long as the weather is beautiful out, I will take them on walks as well with my family! Myself and my family will treat your pets as if they were ours! We will show them love the entire time they are with us!
About: At the animal shelter I volunteer at I always respect the animals boundaries both cats and dogs. I keep their best interest in mind always and show them a patient and caring attitude. Caring for animals is something I am incredibly passionate about and I am looking to do Rover part-time during the summer. Everyday I make sure my own animals have clean food, water, as well as clean litterboxes. I love playing with them as well and seeing them enjoy themselves with their favorite toys. I make sure my cats at home have everything they need and their space is clean and safe. I also care for my families dogs and love playing with them and going on walks with them.
About: Experienced with everything from energetic puppies to gentle seniors, and comfortable handling multiple breeds, sizes, and personalities. Committed to keeping your dog’s routine consistent-exercise, play, and plenty of affection included! I am currently studying for a medical license so my schedule is pretty flexible. I love animals and able to take last minute requests to suit your needs. Arrange an in-home consultation to allow the pet to become familiar with you and to review the home’s layout, location of supplies, and emergency contacts. Discuss the pet’s daily routine, feeding schedule, dietary needs, medication instructions, and any unique personality traits or triggers Note any special instructions, such as whether the pet is allowed on furniture, preferred walking routes, or if they are reactive to other animals
About: Pets are part of the family and they deserve the best care no matter the age. From puppy to senior I can provide the care needed and tailored to your pup. From walks to mental enrichment and games your dog will be well cared for while you’re away. I currently have open availability to be flexible with your needs! Available 7 days a week morning, afternoon and evenings. I am also available for overnights in your home. My dog Dune, cat Arlo and I are always on an adventure! My days are centered around making sure they get what they need to live happy healthy lives, and I can provide the same for your pets!

“Kim would be a wonderful pet caretaker. She has been around animals all of her life. Growing up she helped to take care of cats, dogs, guinea pigs, chickens and rabbits. She always showed love and care to each animal. The animals in return showed her the love and kindness she had given them. She has taken care of my cats and dogs when I have been away. She is very trustworthy and I feel at ease when she is taking care of them. Sincerely, Susan M”

Tiffaney W.
“Tiffaney has walked and cared for my Dogter (Dog Daughter) Chance. many times. My Dogter is a senior citizen dog 12 years old, and she has a hard time with stairs. Tiffaney shows extreme patience but more importantly is very naturally loving towards Chance. She has on her own, made great suggestions for natural ways of enhancing my dogs health as a senior dog. I appreciate the genuine care she has shown to my dog, knowing my dog has a difficult time and walking around Chicago can be stressful for any pet. Tiffaney is always is on time and communicates really well. I feel very safe with Chance being in Tiffaney’s care, you will too! A+ 5 Star!”

Anchorage cat parents share their Rover experiences
We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter! Both of our cats absolutely adore her—so much so that they now wait together at the front door for her arrival. This is especially heartwarming because one of them is usually terrified of everything that moves, yet he now trusts her completely. It’s clear how happy and comfortable they are in her care. She also sends the most wonderful photo updates—thoughtful, adorable, and even includes wide shots of every room before she leaves. It’s such a relief to know exactly what to expect when we walk back in the door. You can rest assured that your home and pets are in the best hands!
