“Bre was fantastic watching our Cat! He has some medical that require extra effort/ needs and Bre followed directions and was very communicative in times of doubt. She also took great care of our house. We will hire her again and highly recommend her to watch your pets!”

“Nicole R. spent 4 days with Sunny and Sunny LOVED her! My house was spotless when I returned and I will definitely book her in the future. (Am working on that happening really soon.). I definitely would recommend her.”

“Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter to care for our pups in our absence. We loved the thorough updates, pictures, and especially Gianni taking such great care of a sudden pup injury. We were able to enjoy our trip to the fullest knowing our babies were in good hands.”

“Patricia was absolutely a star for us. Bucket loved having her here and was sad when she left. We will absolutely use Patricia again and appreciate everything she did for Bucket. The care was immaculate and much appreciated!”

“Jade was great while we were gone for a long weekend! She took wonderful care of our dogs, and it was clear how happy and relaxed the pups were when we returned home. We especially appreciated the regular updates and photos—she gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Highly recommend Jade!”

“Took amazing care of our dogs while we were away for 10 days! She kept us up to date regularly and took some of the best pictures. She also got them comfortable with short outdoor walks which we plan to keep up now that we’re back. Would highly recommend her for your pet care needs !”

“Connie is fantastic! Excellent communication and took great care of my pets (cat and senior pit bull). My animals absolutely adore her and have already requested that she stays with them again :)”

“I appreciate that Omar took the time to meet with me beforehand so my dog could get comfortable with him, that actually makes a big difference. He followed all the instructions I provided. My place was left exactly how I left it which shows he respects my space, and that’s always a plus. I’m booking him again soon!”

“Elizabeth is always so great with my dog! I really appreciate the consistent pictures and updates while I’m gone, it really puts my mind at ease. This is my second time having her house sit and both times have been amazing!”

“Mairead is awesome! She’s very communicative and this is my second time booking with her. She’s very very responsible and takes her job seriously. I’m very grateful to lean on her when I need to be out of town.”

“Alyssa was available for a last minute overnight, which was super appreciated. She made me feel comfortable that my dog was in good hands, and sent lots of cute pics. Will definitely ask Alyssa to watch my dog again in the future.”

About: Up until recently I had a large reactive dog. She was my best friend and taught me not only patience, but also taught me so much about dogs. I wfh and am looking to add a little something to my schedule. I would love to give your dog the exercise it needs while you’re at work. I am willing to work with reactive dogs in case by case basis. I am also a dog walking volunteer at CACC. I wfh and have flexibility in my schedule. I am available afternoons and evenings m-f and can work something out on weekends if it was needed. I would take care of your animals at your home based on instructions you give me for you pet. I respect you as an owner and your pet and do not want to give overstep and boundaries

“Vlad house sat for our 80 lbs 5yo pit bull and two cats. He sent us photos in the morning, afternoon and evening so we could see what they had been up to and were reassured the pets were doing well during our long trip. Vlad took our dog on many long walks so Dexter was very tired by the time we got home. ? I think Dexter missed Vlad when he left. Vlad was also there when we got home so we knew the pets weren’t left alone for long during the transition time, which is when Dexter usually destroys pillows ?. Vlad is absolutely fabulous!! We have already booked him again!!”

“Pablo did an amazing job caring for our Great Dane, Hugo, at our home while we were on vacation for 4 days. We got photos regularly, and we came home to a very happy dog! We would rebook with Pablo again without question.”

“Gabriela is great. Sent me pictures, followed all the instructions, very punctual and responsible. I have no complaints and would definitely ask her to take care of Babushka again if I am in need of dog sitter.”


“Allison is awesome. This was our second time having her watch our two pups so she knew their routine, was great with communication and keeping us updated with messages and pics while we were gone. Once again left the house cleaner than when we left. She’s great- thanks again Allison!”

About: I have lived with my best friend’s 3-year-old dog for the past couple of years and love to take care of him anytime she’s away - I have always wanted a dog of my own so I take my dog aunt duties very seriously. I also helped my parents raise their puppy, who is now 1 years old and by far the favorite child. I’m currently a student on summer break, so I will have plenty of flexibility to work with your schedule and time needs. Since I am not otherwise employed I am able to give your dog my full undivided attention. I live on the second story of a spacious Chicago three-flat with two dog-loving roommates and a small 14lb playful dog who loves to cuddle.
Armour Square pet parents share their Rover experiences
Nothing but glowing things to say. I felt confident that Penny was in good hands from the jump when I saw how Bri interacted with her during out meet and greet. Penny is a high energy young dog and Bri sent plenty of updates while I was away. She took my notes about Penny's care and ran with them giving Penny enrichment, practicing commands on walks, and in the end I had cute photos of a tired pup! Would definitely recommend.

Agata and Calvin did an amazing Job by taking care of our girls. The minute we met the girls seemed very comfortable around them. It is easy to see the love they have for dogs. Pictures on the park during their stay where amazing. 100% recommend and I will definitely trust my dogs with them over and over.. 😃😃

Our dog Heidi is quite anxious and can’t be left alone for long periods of time. Lourdes was able to accommodate this, and gave both me and my wife the gift of a night out without having to worry about the wellbeing of the dog. Thank you Lourdes! Hoping to work with you again in the future.

Emily did an amazing job house sitting and watching our 2 kitties! She was so accommodating to our cats’ needs, catering to both a sassy adult and crazy kitten. She even dealt with some chaos at the place because of our contractors, and was super flexible and responsive to everything. I’d highly recommend Emily.

Took amazing care of our dogs while we were away for 10 days! She kept us up to date regularly and took some of the best pictures. She also got them comfortable with short outdoor walks which we plan to keep up now that we’re back. Would highly recommend her for your pet care needs !

Annie truly went above and beyond this past week, & I can’t express enough good things about her as a person & caregiver!!! She took such amazing care of my pups & it was abundantly clear they were very loved & cared for every single moment I was gone. I’ve honestly never felt so at ease leaving them with someone (including my own family & friends)! She treats your dog(s) like they’re her own, with boundless love, patience, & consistency, & it made the whole experience completely stress-free for me. She is also just a genuinely kind & wonderful person — I’d be friends with her outside of Rover in a heartbeat! I would absolutely recommend her to anyone, especially if you’re someone who gets anxious about leaving your pets with other individuals for a variety of reasons. She’s the kind of person you can fully trust, is a lovely person to interact with, & means everything wholeheartedly. Thank you for everything, Annie!!!

Symone was the best! She took such great care of our pup Molly, even if it did take a minute for her to warm up. She provided excellent updates and followed our instructions to the T. She took great care of our home and was SUPER flexible when we were experiencing flight delays. She stayed longer than previously agreed to make sure Molly wasn’t home alone for too long. We would certainly have her take care of our dog again!
