“Miguel was fantastic! I got tons of updates, I could see that my dog was getting the very best care. Would definitely recommend Miguel for a dog sitting and walking.”
“Sean was an absolute treasure to our girl, Luna. He was very responsive from the get-go and made sure that all of our accommodations were met. I’m not sure that we will ever book with anybody else as Luna adored Sean when we returned. I would give Sean 100/10 stars if I could. I highly recommend entrusting him.”
About: I recently graduated from Northern Michigan University this past spring with a bachelors degree in Education. Before pursuing my career, I am taking time off to work and spend time with family. I am a lover of all animals, though I have the most experience with cats and dogs of all ages and sizes. Over the past 8 years, I have worked with several families for drop by visits and extended stays while they travel. I have a fur baby of my own, my cat Ringo, who I love very much. I have several references available for back ground check and to hear from prior families I have worked with for feedback if desired! I would love to work with you and your pets! I have a pretty open schedule! I work 1-2 shifts a week of retail for roughly 4 hours per shift. I can do overnights, extended stays, multiple visits per day, and so on. I’m flexible to your needs! When caretaking for you animal, I’ll be more than ready to follow your expectations. I have a list of references available from prior families I’ve worked with in the past that I am more than welcome to share with you. At any point, feel free to contact me via call or text if you have questions or concerns about the wellbeing of your animal.
“Justice is a truly compassionate, conscientious and reliable sitter for our big Great Pyrenees. She has walked and house sat for us and has always been communicative and flexible and we have nothing but great things to say about how she’s helped us over the last few months. We cannot recommend her enough!”
“Malcomn was the best Rover we ever had. Would hire him back in an instance. He was respectful, responsive, communicative and took exceptional care of our puppy and cat for a long weekend. He sent great descriptions and photos every day. He sets the bar high for Rovers!”
About: I have taken care of dogs for most of my life! I had a puppy as a young girl, and cared for her through her old age. I also have extensive pet sitting experience, and have watched 5 dogs simultaneously. I have a very caring personality and would love to care for your fur babies! When it comes to cats, I have about 12 years of experience. I have taken care of numerous outdoor stray cats, and have rehomed many of them, including taking two into my own home. I am self employed (jewelry artist!) so I have plenty of time to check in with your pets, walk/play etc. I am available anytime during the week (M-F) and usually on the weekends as well. I currently live in a small apartment, and would need to come by you. I am excellent at following directions, and will cater to you and your pets needs.
“Yesica was amazing! It was our first time using rover and she made sure that we were comfortable with everything! She sent lots of pictures, videos and text updates!! She would even give special attention to my dog while she ate because she usually doesn’t eat as much when we are out of town! I would definitely book again!”
“Joyce did a fantastic job watching my two older dogs (10 and 12) for a week. She responded as soon as I contacted her on Rover, we talked-out the details and finalized the booking. My 12-year-old dog has diabetes and needs two insulin injections per day. Joyce had no problem giving him the injections which was a load off my mind. She also sent us tons of updates and photos. My neighbor even texted to say that she saw Joyce walking the dogs a bunch and that it looked like they were all having a great time. I will definitely book her next time I go out of town.”
“Joanna did a phenomenal job caring for my dog over a long weekend! From the moment we connected, she was communicative, reliable, and clearly passionate about animals.she provided regular updates, photos, and messages, which gave me complete peace of mine while I was away. My dog was happy, well cared for, and clearly received plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. It was obvious that Joanna treated my dog like one of her own, and I could tell my pup felt comfortable and loved throughout the stay. I am incredibly grateful for the exceptional care Joanna provided and would not hesitate to book with her again. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely caring, I highly recommend Joanna. Thank you for going above and beyond! 🐾💕”
“Natalie was amazing!! This was our first time leaving Strider and she made us feel immediately at ease. Wonderful communication and lots of photos which made our trip much more enjoyable not worrying about our pup. Natalie was a super considerate, professional, and caring. You can tell she just “gets” animals. Strider seemed himself and very well taken care of when we returned. When our flight was delayed, Natalie also graciously added an extra walk. So glad we found her!”
About: Hi, I’m My’Anna! I’m a Veterinary Technician with hands on experience caring for dogs and cats in both clinical and home settings. I know how important it is to feel confident that your pet is safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while you’re away. I’ve cared for dogs and cats with all kinds of personalities and needs, from energetic pups who want to play to senior pets who need a little extra patience and attention. I’m comfortable caring for pets who need medications, extra monitoring, or special routines, and my veterinary background has taught me how to notice the little things that can make a big difference in a pet’s health and comfort. But great pet care isn’t just about knowing what to do, it’s about getting to know the individual pet! I take the time to learn their personality, routines, favorite activities, and quirks so they feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while you’re away. Whether your dog wants a long walk, your cat prefers to watch me from across the room, or your senior pet simply wants some quiet company, I’m happy to meet them where they are. My goal is for you to feel confident leaving them in my care and for your pet to be excited to see me again. As a part-time veterinary technician, I have flexibility in my schedule to give my Rover pets plenty of attention and one on one care. I love filling my free time with walks, playtime, cuddles, and keeping pets comfortable in their normal routines. When caring for your pet in your home, I follow their usual routine, respect your space, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. As a vet tech, I’m also trained to pay close attention to changes in behavior and well being. I’ll keep your pet’s safety a priority while giving them plenty of attention, playtime, cuddles, and companionship. I’ll also keep you updated so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands.
About: I’ve always loved animals and enjoyed helping take care of family and friends’ pets. I’m gentle, responsible, and always treat every pet like my own!! Whether it’s feeding, walking, or simply giving them attention, I always make sure they feel comfortable and loved💗 I’m currently not working full-time, so I have flexible availability throughout the week. I’m happy to care for pets during the day or evening, depending on your needs. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I’ll be there to help!! I provide a calm and safe environment with lots of love and attention. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully, making sure each pet feels secure and cared for. I’m happy to care for pets in your home or mine, depending on what’s best for your furry friend.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life. I feel as though lots of people want dogs but don’t care to learn how to properly take care of them so, I go above and beyond to take care of the dogs I am able to take care of within my power. I would like to have a meet and greet before I take on any assignments. I am a TA for Oak Park 97 school district. I love animals; especially dogs. I have a degree in Zoology and seek a career working with animals. I usually am free after 3:30 pm Monday through Friday and have open availability most weekends. I try to respond to messages as soon as possible and will work to accommodate your pets needs as best as I can. I make sure that my client’s pet’s feel safe as possible when they’re with me. While walking, I won’t let the client’s dog interact with other people or dogs because you never know how dogs will react with strangers or other dogs. That is unless the owner gives me permission to do so. If feeding is required I will make sure that the dog gets the appropriate amount of food for their breed or per the owner’s instructions. If need be I will also play with the dog and make sure they get the appropriate amount of exercise that they need.
“Maddie was just what our family needed. She is responsible and a good communicator- our two Goldens really felt relaxed around her and she gave them really good care. Maddie even got our one storm-phobic dog through two Thunderstorms and they had all their needs met. We felt completely at ease being out of town and leaving Maddie in charge.”
“Alicia was wonderful! I will definitely be using her again to watch my doggy! She was attentive, communicated well with me and even sent multiple photos throughout the night. I felt very comfortable leaving my baby with her. Like I mentioned, I will definitely be contacting Alicia again!”
About: I’ve had pets my whole life, they’ve always held a special place in my heart. From dogs and cats to horses and more, I love getting to know each animal’s unique personality. Whether your pet loves to play, cuddle, explore, or simply enjoys calm company, I’ll care for them with the same love, patience, and attention I’d give my own fur babies! As a licensed esthetician, I create my own schedule & have the flexibility to work around your pet’s routine, making scheduling stress free for both of us. You can count on me to be dependable, respectful of your home, and to keep you updated with messages and photos, so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in loving, capable hands. Pet care has always been a natural part of my day to day routine because I’ve grown up around animals & have cared for pets for majority of my life. I work part time as an esthetician, meaning I can create my own schedule, which gives me flexibility throughout the week for walks, visits, & overnight stays! The pet’s safety, comfort, & routine would be my highest priorities. I like to take the time to learn each pet’s personality, feeding schedule, medications, favorite activities, etc so they feel secure and cared for. I have experience being around cats and dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels, and I understand that every animal has different comfort zones and boundaries. Whether your pet is shy, playful, independent, or needs extra patience, I always respect their pace. I’ll l keep your home clean, follow your instructions carefully, & provide regular photo and video updates so you always know how your furry family members are doing.🐾
“Xandi did a totally exemplary job on a ten-day house sit with our senior dog with complicated medical requirements and kept us informed about how things were going throughout, including things like following through on our dog's seizure treatment protocol and asking the right clarifying questions. I'd have no reservations about working with Xandi again.”
“Destiny is amazing! My boy had a bit of a stomach bug, and Destiny was willing to handle a special diet and take him on some extra walks while I was away. I can tell that he loved spending time with her! Her photo updates were wonderful, and I came home to so many thoughtful housekeeping touches throughout my apartment! Destiny is so joyful and kind, I can’t recommend her enough. Patty can’t wait for the next time she comes to stay!”
“Dorothy took good care of our two elderly cats, including giving meds twice a day. The cats can be problematic (Perdita is very skittish and mostly considered her an interloper, so spent much of her time in hiding), but she handled the ensuing issues well, our pets were happy and healthy when we returned. We were grateful to have someone in the house while we were away, looking after things and disrupting our pets' routine as little as possible.”

Isabel was absolutely wonderful with our two dogs, Hawk and Trigger! She went above and beyond to make sure they were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We received great updates and could tell that she genuinely cared about them. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. We would highly recommend Isabel to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable dog sitter. We will definitely be using her again!
Nuraini is the absolute best!! She was available last minute when I needed a dog sitter and came in and loved my dog like her own! She’s very communicative sends plenty of pictures of your fur baby to keep you up to date and she even sat and played with my dog after walks and check ins! I would book Nuraini everytime I need a sitter she really cares about animals and did what she could to make sure my fur baby was comfortable and warmed up to her. 100000/10!!
Isabella did an incredible job watching our fur babies while we were away for our wedding! She was very responsive and kind and our three cats loved her :) She was ready and willing to stay over night and to administer medications for two of them. Thank you so much Isabella!
Yolanda took wonderful care of Ollie while we were away. She kept us updated with photos and messages, which we really appreciated and helped us feel at ease. Ollie needed a little time to adjust the first night, and she was very patient and kind with him. It was clear he was well cared for, and he came home happy and relaxed. We’re very grateful for the care she gave him.
We had Cheryl watch our senior dog, who had only ever been left overnight with family before, so I was definitely a bit nervous. Cheryl was absolutely wonderful and put my mind at ease right away. She took such great care of our dog and kept us consistently updated, which meant so much to us. We could not be happier with the experience and will definitely be using Cheryl again in the future. Highly recommend!

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Broadview walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Broadview maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Broadview choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

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 .
