“They loved on my dogs. I have one very active dog that was able to play with their dog Winnie a lot and I have one that is more chill and she just laid around and got spoiled. Already have another sleepover scheduled.”
“My dog absolutely loved her time with Trish. I got many updates and pictures. I knew without a doubt my dog was being loved and taken care of while I was away. She was very flexible and understanding when we had a change of plans that delayed our return home by a few hours as well. I highly recommend her. My dog can’t wait to have a play date with her pups someday soon!”
“Kimberly was fantastic. Very responsive! We ended up booking with her last minute as our previous booking with another sitter canceled the night before we were leaving for our trip due to an emergency. I will say, we lucked up on Kimberly. Our 8yr old golden doodle got in walks, treats, chew toys, fun with her dogs, and lounge time. Our dog was happy and energetic when we picked him up. I would definitely recommend Kimberly. If her availability is open, we will book with her again.”
“Rabia and her family did an excellent job of taking care of Archie, my golden retriever. They are so caring and loving! Rabia was very accommodating to a last minute change in schedule and very attentive, giving us frequent updates. I would definitely recommend her to anyone that needs reassurance their pet is being well looked after with so much love!”
“Danielle was great, she was flexible with our drop off and pick up schedule and was very willing to snuggle with our dog, who believes she was born to do nothing else.”
About: My name is Sandra and I’m 28 years old. I have two furry family members; Bonbon, an 11 year old poodle mix, and Wally, a 3 year old collie mix. I currently work as a Dog Groomer, but have about 6 years of experience in the Dog Daycare industry. My past jobs have given me the experience needed to handle and care for dogs of all sizes. They’ve also taught me how to greet an unfamiliar dog, how to do feedings for various dogs, administer medication, and how to detect signs of aggression and fear. With my personal experience and professional experience, I am well equipped to handle dogs in all stages of life. With that being said, It takes patience, hard work, and honesty to care for a dog. My offered services to clients are met with the highest of standards. I believe in giving 100% in all work that I do, meaning you’ll never receive less than excellent care for your best friend. It’s difficult to leave your dog in the hands of a stranger, however, I always treat every dog the way I would want my dog to be treated: like family. If you have any questions regarding my services, please feel free to reach out! I am fully committed to Rover, meaning I have full availability, and can give your furry family members my full attention 7 days a week. I care for your pets the way I would care for my own. Every furry family member is different, and you know them best. I can guarantee my care will reflect the dog’s lifestyle. Whether you crate at home, or your pet snuggles in bed with yourself; I aim to keep the routine as close as possible to that at home.
“We had a wonderful experience with Kimberly [and Tom]! Both took great care of our two white Swiss shepherd boys while we were away. Kimberly was very responsive and kept us updated with videos and pictures throughout the stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. When we returned, the dogs were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will definitely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!”
“Robynn was absolutely incredible, and I truly cannot recommend her enough. From the very beginning, she went above and beyond to make sure both my dogs and I felt completely comfortable. She provided detailed updates throughout the stay, including messages, photos, and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear in every interaction how much she genuinely cares for the dogs she watches. She was also very thoughtful in checking in with me, asking questions about my dog’s eating habits and behaviors to make sure everything she was seeing was normal. That level of attention and communication meant so much to me. What really stood out was how she stepped in during a last-minute situation when my original boarding plans fell through. Despite the short notice, she made time for a quick meet and greet and handled it so professionally and thoughtfully. She introduced the dogs one at a time to ensure they were comfortable and compatible, which immediately reassured me that my dogs were in the best hands. You can truly tell that Robynn loves what she does and treats every dog like her own. I felt completely at ease leaving my dogs with her, which is priceless. I will absolutely be rebooking with her and highly, highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, attentive, and reliable sitter.”
“Giedre and her family were awesome. Sophie walked right in to their house as if she had been there before which was a great start. Giedre sent me several pictures of all the fun Sophie was having that definitely helped ease my mind. We hope to use Giedre again in the near future!”
“This was the longest I've left my dogs and had no worries. Kimberly treated my dogs like they were her own with lots of love and attention, had great communication, and sent lots of pictures and updates. There's nothing better than picking up well cared for and happy dogs! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!”
“Kristine was fantastic! The dogs were well taken care of and she provided updates and pictures which was greatly appreciated. Will rebook should be we need someone for our dogs.”
“Kevin is the most reliable dog sitter ever! My dog was well cared for and happy. Kevin sent pictures and updates periodically while I was away. Definitely recommend his services and will definitely use again.”
“Our dogs came home happy and clearly enjoyed every minute of their stay with you. Thank you so much for taking such excellent care of our fur babies. We really appreciate the wonderful attention and love you gave them.”
“Patricia was very responsive and sent plenty of pictures. She took very good care of our gentle giant, 7yr old golden doodle, and I would definitely seek to use her services again. She is awesome to work with. I would highly recommend.”
“Linda and George took amazing care of my pup. They sent update photos everyday and even took my pup out and about, which he loved every second of it! I would 1000% recommend them for any type of dog sitting and I know my pup can’t wait for the next trip back!”
“It’s been awesome being able to visit family over Christmas and New Year’s Eve this year and having someone so reliable to watch our pups. Thanks for becoming a regular to us Kendall!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Julia, Joel, and their family! As new puppy parents, we were a little nervous about leaving our 5-month-old pup for the first time, but they completely eased our anxiety. We received regular updates and adorable pictures through the Rover app, and even got to track her walks—which was such a comfort. Their large backyard is a huge bonus—perfect for a high-energy puppy to run and play safely. Most importantly, they treated her like part of their family, which is exactly what we hoped for. It’s clear how much love and care they put into what they do. We’re so grateful to have found them and will absolutely be booking again!”
“Highly recommend Zhiyang S for pet sitting! She was professional, attentive, and treated my dog Peggy with so much care. I especially loved the photo updates she sent—it was so reassuring to see Peggy doing well while I was away. I'm very satisfied with the experience and will definitely be a returning client. 5 stars!"”

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in IL ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
