“Rodney and Christine were so wonderful to work with, we appreciated how quick they were to respond, their updates and care with taking care of our dog, as well as their flexibility. They were so kind and easy to work with and really helped us out with a last minute reservation and some delayed travels. We highly recommend them as people who are kind, reliable and loves animals. We look forward to using them in the future!”


About: Ever since I can remember I've had dogs and other critters as pets. I grew up reading dog magazines and books and have always loved taking care of them and having them be part of the family. At one point we had a total of 9 living with us at home. I've had the privilege of having both big and small dogs, pure bred, mixed, and rescued. The only downside of owning a pup is that they don't live long enough; however I am thankful that I was able to care for my dogs as they aged and hold them even when they crossed the rainbow bridge. With that being said, I have experience with dogs of all ages and sizes. I've volunteered at shelters and have experience giving both oral and topical medication while also being first aid certified. I would love to take care of your pup while giving you peace of mind knowing they're in good hands. Fun fact: my very first email back in the early 2000s was max_luvs_dogs - lol. I currently have a flexible schedule and work from home so your pet will have my undivided attention. I am available on weekdays and some weekends. For boarding : I have a fenced in yard and a friendly rescue who loves other pups. Its guaranteed that she'll be their new best friend. For overnights: I'll treat your home and environment with respect and make sure your pup is cared for.

“Evelyn is a wonderful sitter! Rosie is a puppy and everything is new to her! Rosie came home very happy! We would recommend Evelyn for all age pets; she loves animals and it shows! They get to sleep in bed or on couch with her. Or in their kennel if you prefer! We will definitely use Evelyn again!”

“Kristina was great. Daily walks and various other activities for my pup, plus loads of updates and photos to give you peace of mind. Would 100% get her again to take care of my furbaby!”


“Priyanka did an amazing job with our large breed and made her feel at home while meeting all of her needs. She gave us consistent updates with pictures and videos over the two days we were out of town. Priyanka would contact us if she had any questions or if she needed clarification. We would recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and capable sitter.”


About: I have had about 3 dogs in my entire lifetime and I love them! I have helped take care of family and friends dogs and I would love to walk your dog as well! I have Mondays and Fridays mainly free and small hour slots throughout Tuesday and Thursday! If you have a pup who needs a way to burn energy throughout the day, I'll be there for them! Specific times: Monday: After 2pm Tuesday: After 5pm Wednesday: After 6pm Thursday: 12:45-2, After 7 pm Friday: 12-1:30, 3-10 Saturday: Any time Sunday: Any time I have a small backyard with a tall wall that would prevent dogs from running out. I have a relatively large first floor living area with lots of space for a dog to run around. I am home for the most part and am willing to constantly watch and care for a dog.
“Rosalyn was amazing! She kept me updated with pictures, and it was clear my pup was happy and well cared for the whole time. I felt completely at ease knowing she was in good hands. It’s rare to find someone so reliable and thoughtful, and I’d definitely book with her again.”

“Kathleen took great care of our dogs! She provided us with plenty of photo and video updates daily and kept us in the loop about the dogs’ day and we really appreciate that. The dogs looked like they had a great time! We highly recommend Kathleen as your next dog sitter! Thank you so so much.”

“Rachel was absolutely amazing with my two pugs, Roxy and Kobe! This was my first time leaving them with a dog sitter, so I was naturally a little nervous, but she made the entire experience completely stress-free. Her communication was outstanding from start to finish. She always responded quickly to my messages, kept me updated on how my dogs were doing, and sent me plenty of pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Anytime I had a question, she answered right away and made sure I knew how Roxy and Kobe were doing. Before their stay, we met in person, and I also got to meet her adorable Golden Retriever, Chubbs. He is such a sweet and friendly dog, and Roxy and Kobe got along so well with him. It was comforting to know they were in such a welcoming environment. Rachel is kind, caring, professional, and truly loves the dogs she watches. I felt completely comfortable leaving Roxy and Kobe with her, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. I highly recommend Rachel to anyone looking for a trustworthy, reliable, and attentive dog sitter. Thank you, Rachel, for taking such wonderful care of Roxy and Kobe!”

“My two baby girls had the BEST time at Leah’s! We always worry about leaving them but Leah really eased our minds with her daily updates. You can tell she really is a dog/animal lover and I was actually worried that my girls were not going to want to come back to me because they were so comfortable at her house! Leah will definitely be out number one from here on out! We love you Leah and I’m sure my babies are dying to have another stay or even playdate with you in the future ?♥️”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Angel is amazing! He took such great care of my dog Pharoah and was very responsive anytime I needed to reach out. I always felt comfortable knowing Pharoah was in good hands. I will definitely continue to use him whenever I need a dog sitter and will recommend him to my family as well.”
“My pups had a 1night stay with Vicky & I can tell had a blast! Huge backyard for playing and lots of cuddles on the couch. Thank you so much for the constant pics and updates !! Thank you Vicky!!”

About: I’ve been around animals since I was little, and I really love taking care of them—especially dogs. I’ve raised a few pets at home and always make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I enjoy going on walks, feeding them on time, playing, and giving them lots of attention. I try to treat every pet like they’re part of the family. I’d be happy to care for your pet and make sure they’re comfortable while you’re away! I currently work full-time, but I go home during my lunch break to check on the pups—making sure they get a potty break, a short walk, or some playtime. After work, I have more time to give them attention, play, and care. I'm available for boarding on weekends and for pet care on weekdays after 4:30 PM. I have a fully fenced yard and a small Yorkie, Bella, who loves keeping your fur baby company and having a buddy to play with.
“The communication with Ryan was always there , my wife and I love to leave our dog with people who loves dogs and in a home specially with a lots of space for him to run, we definitely recomend Ryan and will leave our dog with him again in the future for sure.”


“I would definitely have my dog stay with Christine and James again! They were friendly from drop off to pick up. Within 10 mins of being home, our dog Penny was passed out on the couch - so I knew she had fun! We were given updates and pictures, so I felt good knowing she was in good hands!”


“This was the first time we used Rover, and it was the first time that we ever left our dog with anybody. I was a little nervous, but I was more than pleased with the way everything was handled. They treated her the same as we would have treated her ourselves. She came back, happy healthy and I would not hesitate to use them again. Thank you Martin for an outstanding job.”


About: I’ve cared for dogs all shapes and sizes, from a young age. I come from a family of dog lovers. My fur babies are a Maltese and a Yorkie Terrier. My favorite breed is Dobermans. I’ve trained my dogs multiple tricks and potty trained them. I’ve been a dog walker for just over 5 years. I’m currently employed full time. I live only 15 minutes from work, so I can stop by as needed. I care for my dogs daily and frequent a near by park for longer walks. I’m off weekends so my schedule is flexible on those days. I have a 3 bedroom apartment with a fenced balcony patio. The patio has a small grass potty pad for quick potty breaks. Just outside my building is a large grass play area. Not fenced, but the sidewalks make for a good walk to stretch their paws. My two dogs do great with other dogs and will be great company for your pup. I have plenty of toys to keep them all entertained.

About: While I'm new to Rover, I’ve been lovingly pet sitting since my teens and have raised high-energy working breeds my entire life. In my own home, I currently have a fun-loving, high-octane adolescent dog and a recently departed sweet, gentle senior, so I truly understand and adore dogs of all life stages! I provide a warm, predictable environment where your pup can relax, feel safe, and know exactly what to expect. My Specialties Include: Active & Working Breeds: Giving large, athletic, or driven dogs the physical outlets and mental stimulation they crave. Extra Behavior Support: Experienced and confident with separation anxiety, resource guarding, and leash reactivity, using calm, consistent handling. Sweet Seniors: Patiently managing slow-paced routines, mobility needs, and extra comfort adjustments. Safety & Comfort Your pup will be treated exactly like one of my own! My home is entirely secure and puppy-proofed to minimize stress. I am dedicated to keeping their feeding schedules, training boundaries, and bedtime or crate routines intact so they feel zero disruption while you are away. I can't wait to give your dog the premium care and love they deserve. Send me a message today to schedule a Meet & Greet! I am typically available for boarding and daycare on weekends, holidays, and school breaks. I can do visits in the afternoon and evening. For daycare, I am available for drop off as early as 5 AM and pick up as late as 9 PM. I have a dog and a cat of my own that I care for daily. After breakfast has settled in our tummies we go out for walks. We have regular play and naps throughout the day. After dinner lots of snuggles and tv. The dogs sleep in the room with us on their beds. When I got my male dog last year as a puppy, I rebuilt our home schedule to be around caring for him. For boarding or daycare: I have a fenced yard and a friendly dog to keep yours company. I can crate your dog at night if preferred or they can sleep on a bed. I separate all dogs for meal times to prevent resource guarding. I have toys available for play that are regularly washed. Dogs are allowed on couches and in the downstairs during the day. They are allowed upstairs in our bedroom with the door shut at night with us. I will walk and play with them. I have space in the fridge/freezer for fresh or raw food. I can give medications. For dog-walking: I will walk your dog with mine on leashes for your preferred distance or time in the morning or evening. I am experienced with handling leash-reactivity.
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Arlington Heights is $56
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Arlington Heights
We left our 13 year old aussie girl with Megan for 2 long weeks this month. She seems to have had a great time with Megan. She ate well, and was bouncy,excited and in excellent condition when we picked her up. Megan is TERRIFIC! Highly recommended. Our girl Piper has had a hard time with other sitters in the past, needs daily meds, is elderly with arthritis, and we worry about leaving her. Megan was wonderful! She can be trusted with your precious fur babies.

Lucy is wonderful with my 2 dogs! I was worried about them barking and being difficult but she was so great that they were very happy and well behaved for the whole 5 day stay. And they were actually calmer and friendlier to my neighbors after their stay with Lucy, than how they've always been before! t's obvious she takes very good care of the dogs, I highly recommend her services!

Another wonderful stay with Abigail! 🐾❤️ Buddy already knew exactly where we were going as soon as we turned into Abigail’s neighborhood, he was so excited, which says everything about how much he loves staying with her! Abigail kept us updated with photos throughout his stay, and it gives us so much peace of mind knowing that Buddy is truly loved and cared for in her home just as he would be with us. 🥰 We had a special family vacation planned to LEGOLAND, and Abigail was even kind enough to accommodate a later pickup so we could enjoy as much time at the park with our kids as possible. We really appreciated her flexibility! Abigail is definitely our preferred sitter and Buddy’s preferred sitter too! 🐶💕 We’re so grateful to have found someone we trust so much with our boy. Highly recommend!

Elizabeth is an actual saint. She survived 4 nights with our two chaotic house hippos and somehow still liked them by the end! Her photo and text updates were so consistent, it felt like my dogs got their own reality show while we were away. Book her immediately—unless I beat you to it. 6/5 stars.
