“I would highly recommend Natalie and we would definitely use her again in the future. Our cat who is scared of people he isn’t familiar with took to Natalie pretty fast. She spent so much time here with our cat and two dogs and they were well taken care of!!!”

“Gabby was great, very responsive! Loved that we always heard back quickly, and her responses were always positive and kind. We felt her pricing was fair and appreciated her flexibility when we asked to add overnight visits to our booking! My sister helped check on the dogs when Gabby wasn’t there and they were always happy and seemed great! Nice to have someone snuggling our babies while we were gone!”


“Julie is amazing! She took such wonderful care of our dog and cat, sent frequent updates and checked how she should handle things, such as an impending storm. Left our house cleaner than when we left and was very easy to communicate with. Book with her now before her name gets out there and she has no availability left.”

“Rachel took amazing care of our two dogs and cat while we were away for a week. She provided daily updates and treated our pets like family. Highly recommend Rachel! She’s a gem.”


“I was very happy to have Michele care for my dog & cat. She clearly has a passion for animals, and they benefitted from her loving energy. Communicating with Michele was easy, she was very responsive, and proactive with any questions or concerns. I will definitely call on Michele again the next time I travel!”


“Jasmine was absolutely brilliant! She is knowledgeable and reliable, and our furbabies adore her! She was equally adept at tending to our 3-month-old puppy as she was our old, grumpy chihuahua. She knows her way around both cats and dogs and was able to offer us training support with our wee one. We will definitely be booking her for future pet sitting needs - even if we're convinced that our pups already love her more than they love us :)”


“Due to unfortunate circumstances she couldn’t watch my pups. She was very proactive in keeping me up to date and helping me find another dog sitter. She said she would definitely like to help in the future.”

About: I have experience with all dogs from senior Chihuahuas, sassy pitbulls, and super energetic doodles. I would love to sit and chill, or run around and get some zoomies out. Have experience with post surgical care and rehabilitation. I'm a Senior at Normal West but would love to get to know/meet your pet on the weekends any time, or after school/practice (timing depends on season but typically after 4) No other pets currently live in my home which is typically quite. Have lots of area to walk around in backyard, but backyard is not fenced in.
“We were very pleased with Bianca. She kept in touch with us daily. She was open and honest with issues about our cat. We had some problems with getting the meds down the cat, but we worked together and were able to figure it out. I plan to use Bianca again.”

“Georgia stayed at our house for a week with our boys. She was communicative, and willing to assist if needed with another visit since our flight was delayed. She is very friendly and easy to work with, I would definitely recommend her services and will likely reach out again when we are in need. Thank you Georgia!”

About: I have been around animals my whole life, and I have done dog and cat sitting a few times over the years for neighbors or friends. I’ve had cats and dogs in my home since 2014, and I am very comfortable around both. I currently have a full time job; I work primarily in the mornings with evening shifts thrown in here and there. I don’t do much outside of that, so I am pretty available otherwise. I want to keep all pets feeling comfortable, following their routines/schedule, and keeping them company (within their boundaries). I no longer live with my cats and miss them greatly, so I will make sure they receive extra attention, pets, and playtime (within their boundaries).
About: i have taken care of several breeds of dogs from the bichon’s to mastiffs! I have a beagle/shar pei mix who is 12 years old and a pit bull who is 2. We have 4 cats and I am an animal lover through and through! i am a stay at home mom of 2 and so my availability is open typically very flexible!. Up until now I have done this strictly in after work/school hours, but now have much more availability and hope to be able to branch out to more families! I will always respect the home of my client and their animals. We will go over any wants and needs and you don’t have to worry about anything else while you are gone! I am a Rover user myself and understand how important it is to feel stress free and in good hands when you are gone.
“Rowan has been the best dog and cat sitter we’ve had since using this app—10/10, highly recommend. They’re great with animals, always send photos and updates, and are incredibly reliable and attentive.”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 13, from walking dogs around the neighborhood to staying overnight at peoples house and giving older dogs their medicine and eye drops. I’ve taken care of incredibly old dogs before so that is no issue, and while I don’t train puppies I can take care of them too. I’m currently at ICC for college, but don’t have a job outside of that so I can take care of dogs easily. I have class 8-3 on Monday and Wednesday with a lunch break in between, 8-10:30 on Tuesday, and 8-10:30 then 1:30-4:30 on Thursday. I am free outside of that. I have plenty of experience with all kinds of dogs, including dogs that need medicine and eye drops to dogs what where initially scared of me when I went over. I have stayed a week at a house before when watching dogs.
“Alicia did such a great job with Walter. She made sure to follow all the feeding instructions carefully and send pictures with updates while I was gone. She also did laundry and left my place spotless.”
