“Our dogs, Homer and Bella absolutely lived staying with Charlie and his family. They liked it so much I was worried as to whether they would want to come back home with us. They had a HUGE yard to play in, a number of other great dogs to romp around with, two of which are Charlie’s, the rest were visitors as well. Charlie did a great job keeping us up to date with frequent updates, pictures and videos. Knowing our fur babies were being so well taken care of made our vacation get away so much more enjoyable. Ae will definitely be using Charlie and Rover again in the future.”
“My Lola was put down a few days after her stay with Jeannie and Robert. I cannot express how thankful I am at the love and care they had always given her even through her last few moments. They live about 45 minutes away from me but because of the attentiveness, I would drive 2 hours if I had to! I didn’t have a car for the last time they watched Lola and they drove all the way down to pick her up and drop her off. Even with the loss of my little one, they remain family to me and us always. With or without a pet, I will forever be grateful and see them as one of my own.”
“Jaclyn is simply the best, outstanding service every time. We are able to go out of town and not have to think twice whether Khaleesi will enjoy herself or not. She’s been so flexible and supportive to our last minute emergency request.”
“Jaxson immediately took to Janelle and JT giving me confidence in leaving my buddy. Pictures showed him running and "smiling" talking me he was enjoying his pup-cation.”
“Graham Cracker was very relaxed and comfortable when we came to pick him up. She kept us up to date with photos. It was a great experience. We would definitely use her again!”
“Linda was an amazing dog sitter for us. She took us last minute and we were very impressed with her level of knowledge and compassion for her dogs. Her house is set up to pamper all the dogs and sent us daily pictures and a video. I am already looking to rebook with her again next year. Thank you Linda!”
“Emily is incredible! My dogs stayed with her for a full week and came home well cared for, loved, and happy. They exercised every day in a safe, wide-open yard, and she really went above and beyond when they refused to eat at first, giving them soft food and diligently encouraging them to make sure they were comfortable. I cannot thank you enough, Emily!!”
“As always, Lejune was amazing. She treats our boy like family. She is wonderful with updates. Rowan is literally smiling in the photos she sends. We are able to enjoy our time away without worry when he's with her. She's a treasure and we're so lucky to have her as a safe space for our boy.”
“Tori was a perfect dog sitter. She spoiled Lana (dog) while I was out of town. She made me feel very comfortable by sending lots of photos and updates. She even took her on a long hike at Starved Rock. She went above and beyond by getting tennis balls to play fetch. Highly recommend using her and I will certainly re-book in the future.”
“Rosa stepped in at the last minute to care for our pup when another Rover sitter had to cancel! Very easy to communicate with. She's a former dog breeder so very experienced with dogs. She took great care of our Aussie.”
“We can’t say enough amazing things about Renee, she was truly our angel during a very stressful moment while we were on vacation in Florida. The place where our dog was staying unexpectedly call us and rudely demanded that we pick up our dog immediately. Being out there of state with no one nearby to help, we were completely panicked and heartbroken. My husband remember about Rover and he find Renee, she responded very quickly asking the situation and accept our booking. Without hesitation, she stepped in and went out of her way to pick up our dog for us. She was incredibly sweet, caring, and compassionate, exactly what we needed in that moment. She treated our puppy with so much love and care, like he was her own, and kept us updated and send us pictures of him smiling and acting like he is at home. We are beyond grateful for her kindness and will never forget what she did for us. Thank you, dear Renee, you are truly one of a kind!❤️🐾”
“As usual Kelli took exceptional care of both of our dogs. They both came back so tired from all the fun they had! From all the pictures she shares they are definitely well loved and on their own vacation when we are away. 5 stars isn’t enough for how amazing Kelli is! Highly recommend”
“David was incredible for my pups! They had a short stay and I booked very last minute, but it was all great. He sent photos of my pups throughout each day and I know they had tons of fun! They were able to go run and play in David’s yard often and my big boy was a sleepy boy when I brought him home. I will definitely be using David again in the future!”
“Charity was great with our dog. She took on keeping my dog safe, calm, and loved over the puppy much hated holiday of the 4th of July. I will use her again.”
About: Hi, I’m Kellie! I’m a lifelong animal lover with a soft spot for furry companions of all kinds. As a dedicated pet parent and experienced caregiver, I understand just how important it is to know your pets are safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Whether your pet is high-energy, laid-back, or needs a little extra TLC, they’ll be in good hands with me. I treat every pet like family, and I’m committed to providing a calm, comfortable environment and personalized attention. Whether you need daily drop-ins or dog walks, I’m here to make sure your pets feel loved, secure, and right at home. Let’s chat—I’d love to meet you and your four-legged family member! I work from home so I am available any time. My 8 year old Shih-Poo, Harley, is my baby and I am fortunate enough to be able to spend most of my day with her. I have a fenced back yard and pet friendly home. My Shih-Poo is good with other dogs and loves to run and play. I live in a pet friendly community with plenty of community walking paths. I will follow your instructions and wishes to the letter.
