“Ainura was absolutely amazing! I had to find a sitter for my new puppy on very short notice and she responded super fast and accepted the job. It was my first time using the Rover app and I’m so grateful it worked out so well. She took incredible care of little Khaleesi and sent loads of photos showing her playing and having a great time for the week. I’m definitely reaching out to Ainura next time I need a sitter :)”

Now they’re both passed out asleep at home, which tells me they had a fun and active time! I’ll definitely be booking with Bradley again. Highly recommend!”

About: Certified animal lover here! I’ve had pets my entire life, so I truly understand how important it is to find someone you trust—not just a safe place, but a loving, experienced home where your pets will feel happy and cared for. I’ve been pet sitting for a few years and live with a whole crew of well-socialized animals—two playful Labs, four friendly cats, and even a pair of tortoises! I specialize in creating a calm, enriching environment that works for all kinds of personalities—from high-energy pups to shy seniors or pets with special routines. Your pet will get personalized attention, lots of love, and a cozy, supervised stay. Whether it’s fetch in the yard, couch snuggles, a long neighborhood walk or quiet downtime, I’ll make sure they feel right at home. I work from home, so your pet will have company and supervision throughout the day. Other than quick errands or the occasional short meeting, I’m here and available. I’m fine with early morning drop-offs and flexible evening pick-ups to help fit your schedule. My goal is to make things as easy and stress-free as possible for both you and your pet. Your pet’s safety and comfort come first in my home. I offer a calm, supervised environment with plenty of space to relax, play, or nap—whatever makes your pet feel most at ease. I have a fully fenced-in yard for safe outdoor time, and I can easily separate your pet from mine if needed—they’ll still have plenty of room to themselves. I have a crate available upon request, and pets are absolutely welcome on the furniture for snuggles and lounging. All pets in my home are friendly and well-socialized. Introductions are done carefully, and I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, medications, or crate use. Please note that all guests must be okay with cats, as we have a couple feline friends who love to roam the house. Also note I will typically only take 2 dogs if they are from the same family.
“Carrie is so sweet, responsive and flexible. She sent me a good amount of updates and took Boba on a hike. He looked very happy when we picked him up and I felt confident he was in good hands. I'd definitely use her as a sitter again!”
“Kayla was absolutely wonderful! She took the best care of my pittie mix. Her own dog was so sweet and got along great with mine, and provided constant companionship. I received lots of updates and adorable pictures. You can tell Mabel was very happy and comfortable there.”
“Siri was an excellent care taker for my baby Pom! She was there with my pet the entire weekend. Helped me discover a food brand my dog likes. I thank Siri so much for making Suga feel at home. I plan to use her again!”

Arlington Heights dog parents share their Rover experiences
Leaving Sky for seven days was made so much easier, thanks to Brady. As soon as Sky saw Apache and Chinook, she started singing her husky version of “awoo” (husky howls). Brady was diligent with updates, sending us photos and messages that showed Sky was happy, well exercised and clearly enjoying her time. Coming home to a happy and healthy dog is all we could ask for. We will definitely book him again! Highly recommended!
Lindsey took very good care of Waffle the week we were away. She sent us daily communication about how he was doing with plenty of photos. Waffle needed a one on one situation and Lindsey provided the specialized care he needed that kept him very safe and happy. Thanks Lindsey!
