“Elizabeth was wonderful! Our pups were well loved and safe. She was trustworthy and went above and beyond to make sure the house was left in excellent condition. We look forward to having her back.”


“I’m so thankful I found Carole two years ago! She’s amazing with my senior dog, Miley! Carole is communicative and so in-tune with Miley’s needs—she’s the best and I can’t imagine anyone else caring for Miley.”

“Catherine did a wonderful job house sitting. She took attentive care of our two dogs and cat. She provided great updates and our dogs looked so happy in every picture. We had total peace of mind with Catherine watching our home.”

“Keisha was great! She watched our 2 doodles, one with a bit of an attitude! She sent texts when she had questions and sent us pictures. Will definitely book with her again!”

“Alex is great with animals, respectful, kind, caring and compassionate. She is great with communication and made me feel like my pets were being well cared for. Highly recommend!”

“Carrianne is the best!!! She is always keeping us in the loop with updates and pictures. She takes such good care of our pup and our home when we are out of town! Simply the best!!!❤️”

“Our family had recently experienced a loss of our other pet. It was a tough time for travel but Jessica supported our other pet while we were away. She kept us informed and made the world of difference being away during such a difficult time.”

“Could not recommend more! Was amazing with my dog and when I got stuck and had to stay an extra day got me out of a tight spot by continuing to look after my dog! I would recommend to anyone and will be using again!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Maiah and would absolutely recommend her. Our beagle can be a bit high-maintenance, but Maiah was so great with her. It gave us peace of mind knowing our pup was in trustworthy, kind, and capable hands. Maiah was also an excellent communicator--we received regular updates, photos, and quick responses, which made it easy to relax while we were away. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again!”

“Evelyn did a fantastic job taking care of our pup for a long weekend. She made sure he had food, plenty of walks, and all the snuggles while we were gone. Thanks for everything, Evelyn!!”

“Lily was fantastic with my animals! She got sick while I was gone, poor thing, but worked right through it, even cleaned the carpet when one of my babies threw up. I would definitely trust her with my animals and place and will be using her services in the future!”

“Melissa is genuinely amazing. From the meet and greet to the moment we returned home, I’m so grateful and impressed by her. She kept our boys active and happy (and handled our big puppy so well!) Melissa communicated so well, and we returned to the house just as we left it. Highly recommend Melissa. She really cares about the dogs and making you feel comfortable while you’re away.”

“Jackie is incredible! Great communication, she is punctual, sent so many pictures, and best part was my pup was so happy. I definitely recommend! Thanks again Jackie!!”
“Travis takes such good care of our energetic pups. They both love to see him. Travis sends daily pictures of the dogs and they always look so happy to see him. We totally trust Travis to watch the dogs.”

“Julianna was incredible! She stayed at my house for a week while we were gone to watch Sophia. She kept me updated on everything that was going on and gave her some extra love when she needed it. Sophia doesn’t love being away from us but Julianna made sure she was okay and did everything she could to make sure she was happy! Would definitely recommend her <3”
“I couldn’t have picked a better place to leave my dog. I needed a last minute dog sitter and luckily for me Camila was available. When we arrived we were welcomed by Camila and her mom and my dog rushed over happily. Their home is lovely and my dog loved the backyard. Camila makes sure to send updates and pics so I knew my dog was having a great time. I can’t thank Camila and her mom enough for helping us short notice and giving my dog a wonderful stay. I would highly recommend them to anyone!”

Arlington Heights pet parents share their Rover experiences
Catherine gets 100 stars in our opinion! She was scheduled to house sit and take care of our dog Frankie for one day but the night before we were leaving for 4 days the second sitter, who was covering additional days, cancelled due to an emergency. Catherine saved us on a moment's notice.! Our house and Frankie were perfect upon our return. She is the absolute best sitter we've had! Your pet will be in the best of care if you put your trust in Catherine.

Alena did a great job taking care of my pup! I booked on short notice, and she was extremely gracious and accommodating, and even she made time for a meet and greet prior. She was prompt in responses when I reached out and sent check-in updates and photos as well. I would definitely recommend and will be rebooking if the need arises!

I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! She communicated wonderfully from the start and even met with me ahead of time to get to know my dog’s routine and feel comfortable with the space. While I was away, she sent daily updates with pictures of Stewart completely abandoning dad to cuddle with his new friend! 😂 I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter.

Riley was such a relief for our first time using Rover for Willow since an unfortunate first experience with another pet. Not only did we have a short notice stay request but she also suggested to do a meet and greet prior to her stay to make sure both her and Willow weee comfortable. She was so flexible, great with communication and sent lots of pics! Will absolutely use Riley again when we need a sitter :)

Christie took great care of my dogs as well as my home. It is difficult to meet someone once or twice then have them stay in your house but I had no concerns about Christie at all and I was able to leave and enjoy my trip without worry. My dogs loved her from the start and seemed very happy to have her stay. I will be rebooking with her!!!
Cindy took care of our dog Frankie and our house and is hands down the best Rover experience we have ever had!!! After our meet and greet we knew Frankie and our house were being left in good hands. We returned home without having anything to worry about thanks to Cindy! She is booked for our next trip! She is absolutely wonderful!

Marilia was wonderful! Our cat, Zoe, was clearly in highly experienced, responsible, and caring hands. Marilia kept in close touch with any questions that came up and send regular updates. The entire experience gave us great peace of mind and we hope to hire Marilia for future cat-care needs.

Sara and Ethan were excellent dog sitters! They watched three dogs at my house and were great about getting them out on regular walks, giving lots of attention and pets, and sending regular updates and communication. My dogs loved having them and I loved that they had a hybrid/remote work schedule that allowed them to be close to the dogs throughout the day! Ethan and Sara are a great team!
