House Sitting in Armour Square, Chicago

“I highly recommend Otis as a Rover sitter! He was very punctual and professional during our meet and greet. During his stay in my home, he followed all instructions - including correctly using a type of leash that was new to him - and sent lots of updates and photos. I will definitely book Otis again in the future!”

“Marty stayed with my dog over the holidays. He was communicative and respectful, leaving my house in great shape. He clearly cares for dogs, and my dog took to him right away. I really appreciated that Marty let me know about a plumbing issue (which he did not cause!) so I was able to get someone in as soon as I got home — being upfront inspires so much more confidence than any surprises. I would recommend Marty!”

“My cat sitter cancelled on me at the last minute. But as it turns out I was meant to find Belicia. She took excellent care of my girl Zuri. Belicia was communicative, kind, and followed all instructions. She sent me messages and photos to absolve any worry and it didn't take long for my anti-social kitty to take to her. Having her care for Zuri was such a peace of mind. When I came back home, I realize that everything worked out as it should have. This is the beginning, as I will be scheduling with Belicia again.”

“I was very nervous as a first time Rover user and so happy I found Emily! She asked detailed questions about my dogs care and habits during our initial meet and greet which put me at ease, sent photo updates during her stay where he seemed very happy / comfortable with her and came home to a clean place. Would definitely book again!”

“Emily was awesome and so sweet! She sent lots of updates and pictures (which were requested) and Murphy was obviously having a great time and very comfortable with her. So thankful we found her! (:”

“They were AWESOME! Immediately we hit it off talking about our mutual interests. My dog gets a bit hyper but Levi was able to demonstrate techniques to calm him down and quickly. Once I left they sent me regular updates and I never had to worry about whether or not my kitten and dog were in good hands. I really appreciate the time and effort they put into making sure I was updated. I’ve never used Rover but I definitely will again. I also will definitely be using Levi. Thank you so much for everything!”

“Deven was professional and responsive from the first time I reached out to schedule a dog sitter. He was great both my puppy and older dog and comfortable providing oral, topical, and injection medications for my dog. Would highly recommend his services and will definitely be using again.”

“Margo did a great job. She was flexible and responsive. She sent lots of pictures and updates of our cats. We returned home after a week-long vacation and the house was in excellent shape. I will definitely use her for house-sitting and drop-in services in the future.”

“This our first time hiring someone to take care of our dogs, usually we leave them with family. This time the entire family was on a trip so we opted for Rover and feel very blessed to have found Nicole. Nicole is very detail-oriented, communicated perfectly and even sent videos twice a day. We decided to leave the dogs at home instead of sending them to an unknown environment. And she not only walked them. She sat with them and gave them attention. This all became very crucial because it was very hard for me to leave my dogs this time around. One of my dogs had a bit of an eye irritation and she did a great job keeping track of his progress and keeping me updated. We are very grateful for Nicole and will definitely ask for her services again in the future.”

“Nico was wonderful! He stayed in constant communication with us throughout his stay and provided us with plenty of good pictures of Huck. Our dog had a minor illness earlier in the week that required medication and Nico did a great job with making sure Huck took them on schedule every day. He took the time to learn Huck’s quirks, which we very much appreciate!! Will definitely be booking with Nico again!”

“Allison stayed with our pups for two nights and we couldn’t be happier! They were in great care, she paid attention to all of our notes, and the house was in impeccable order when we came home. She communicated daily and sent photos just so we could see how comfortable everybody was. We are all very happy with Allison and would book her again anytime!”

“Maritza was amazing!! She sent updates on how our puppy was doing and she was very responsive overall. Highly recommend!”

“Jonathan took such good care of our dog while we were away! They went on long walks and our dog looked super happy in every picture he sent. Jonathan sent descriptive updates and communicated as needed. We never worried about our pup while we were away. Thanks, Jonathan!”

“Courtney was a life saver. We're new to Chicago and needed a last-minute sitter for a long weekend for our two high-energy large pups. Courtney came over the evening before we left to do a walk through, asked tons of questions, and sent lots of pictures while we were gone. The pups were well taken care of and smiling ear-to-ear when we returned. She's a little pricey comparatively, but worth it! Will be rebooking with her for future sittings.”

“Connor has always had a fantastic and real connection with animals! They warm up to her immediately. From our own pets to others who have witnessed her care, compassion and love with their pets, I wholeheartedly recommend Connor for this work. Your pets will be in amazing hands and will also thank you!”

“This was our first time leaving our dog with a sitter and he was in great hands with Emily. She was very communicative and went above and beyond with updates and pics. Our pup was very happy and obviously well cared for. We would definitely book again.”

“Awesome pet sitter for my dogs, they always love being petsit by her. She was patient, kind, and caring. She even taught them a few tricks! 10/10 recommend!!”

“Grayson is awesome! Their professional experience with pets definitely shows. Especially when they navigate and meditate any of our pets’ little discrepancies. Their experience and understanding of animal behavior and social cues gives us a lot of peace of mind. I highly recommend Grayson for any of your pet care needs! You won’t regret leaving your pets in their very capable hands!”

“Annie watched our French Bulldog, Fiona, for 7 days. It was also a holiday weekend which is a big deal. She did a great job with Fiona! She would send pictures and Fiona looked like she was in her element at home. I felt so comfortable with Annie taking care of Fiona that I didn't feel the need to check in constantly (which is a big thing for me). She also left the apartment just as clean as we had left it! She was great!”

“Karen is great with dogs. I’ve worked along side her at a doggie daycare. We are in charge of watching up to 25 dogs at a time and reading the dogs body language for safe play. Some dogs were small while other are very large. But none that Karen couldn’t handle. She is devoted, kind, and gentle with all of the dogs here. I would trust her with my own babies.”
