“Jayden always does such a phenomenal job with my senior cat. My kitty is rather incontinent and very old, so naturally it is difficult to leave her with many people, but Jayden always treats her so well. They always ask specifically what my cat needs, keep me well updated, and my house cleaner than I left it. I never feel like I'm bothering them when I text and ask for updates. They really understand how hard it can be to leave your pet and that makes it so much easier to relax on vacation. Jayden is the only pet sitter we will use!!”

“Alexa was a very thoughtful, thorough, and kind sitter. She followed all the house rules and Nala rules. She left our home better than when we came back. We will definitely hire her again.”

“Ava was wonderful with our 3 pups. She knew how to manage their chaos and treated them so sweetly. She left the place looking great and really just went above and beyond. We will definitely be using her services again.”

“Tara is fabulous with my cat. I appreciated how much time and energy she spent playing with Jim Catsby. She sent me awesome photos and a video of their time together. Tara really cares about Jim, and leaving him happy. I’m grateful for her passion for pets and their care. She is motivated to give our pets the best experience possible.”

“Mia is a wonderful dog sitter! Charlie and Cooper had a great time with her while we were out of town and she was very communicative with a check in and pictures every day.”

About: As a dog owner you should pick someone to care for your dog who has experience and loves dogs. Well, that care giver is me. Dogs are super energetic and absolutely loyal and that's what I love most about them. Trying to tire out a dog is fun because they're always ready for a game of fetch. If you choose me to care for your dogs you'll be receiving absolute professional service and a great experience for your dog. I have experience in walking, providing medication, and feeding dogs. Hopefully you pick me to care for your loving, four-legged friends. I work from home full-time so I am available for early morning, afternoon, and evening drop offs most week days and weekends as well. We can arrange a drop off on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays after 6pm. I have a cat already but they don’t require much attention. I have a big fenced back yard for your fur babies to run around. If you bring the crate I can easily crate them. I have a great neighborhood for dog walking.
About: I grew up in a household full of pets and have been lucky to live with people who also own pets, sharing the responsibility. Over the years, I've taken care of many dogs and several cats, rodents (guinea pigs and hamsters), hermit crabs, and fish. I have mostly owned small dogs and have been lucky to see them mature into their senior years, so I am familiar with the unique challenges that can come with age. I do feel comfortable walking and caring for dogs of any size. Right now, my family is fostering two 6-week old puppies who need lots of attention and care, so I am learning a lot about puppies. While I haven't yet charged for my services, I have been trusted by friends, family, and community members since I was 15 to pet-sit and house-sit. I graduated from college a year ago and have been bouncing around a lot, working ground control at music festivals. Between festivals, I need a place to stay, so I am especially looking for house-sitting opportunities to spend my time and have furry friends keeping me company. Other than sits and drop-ins, I'm not working, so I can give your loved ones the time and attention they deserve. I am big into travel, so I've met and lived with animals around the world. I've volunteered at shelters in the Bay Area, SoCal, and Louisiana. I was most recently living on a horse ranch in Georgia (the country) and took care of 2 farm dogs and a kitten. They were very independent and mostly required food, water, and serious cuddles. On the other hand, I've watched pets of various temperaments that had strict diets, medication schedules, and mental and physical health needs. I know every animal is different, and I'm happy to do all I can to care for yours just as you would. If your pet needs to sleep in bed with someone at night or other specific requests, I can do that. I will also be exploring Chicago for the first time, so if your dog has any favorite parks or routes, I would love to know!
“Jasmine took excellent care of Zoey while we were out of town for nearly a week. Despite Zoey's nervousness and the challenges it posed initially, Jasmine exercised a lot of patience and willingness to try different things to allow Zoey to feel more safe. And after the first night, Zoey warmed up significantly! Jasmine kept us updated throughout the trip, whether it was the challenges on the first day or the big successes in the days that followed! We really appreciated Jasmine's skills, knowledge, and commitment to taking care of Zoey.”

“Manuela and Tomás are very friendly and warm people. They both are experienced dogsitters and ask the right questions, so you can leave your pup with them with peace of mind. They are respectful with your home. Can only highly recommend.”

“Nicole did an amazing job! She tried her best to maintain the same schedule our dog is used to. She took her out for walks and kept her mind mentally challenged. I will definitely use her services again.”

“Nicole is incredibly communicative. She goes above and beyond with our dog. We were so pleased to have her stay in our home. HIGHLY RECOMMEND and will be booking again.”

“Kathryn is an amazing dog sitter. She has dog sat for us multiple times and she always does a great job. She comes exactly when she says she will and the dogs love her. She leaves our house clean and sends multiple pictures and updates throughout the day. Thank you for being so trustworthy Kathryn!”

“Kendyll was super responsive and took really great care of my dog Chompsky and my kitty Gower. She followed directions perfectly and I would definitely book her again!”

“Quinn was fantastic. She was very responsible, and our dog, who can be a lot of work, loved her. She stayed with our dog at our home and was very neat and responsible. I highly recommend her!”

About: I currently do not have a dog but my family do we have 3 dogs and just had puppies not too long ago that I potty trained. I have worked with the dogs in my house to make them calm. I do not work everyday and have alternative schedules, I go to the park daily and would love to have your dog come with me. I am very good with leash traing, and have taken the dogs or family members to parks many times I insure that no harm comes to dogs.
Chatham pet parents share their Rover experiences
Jayden has stayed with our pup Smith multiple times over the past year and they are consistently amazing! Smith gets so excited the moment they arrive at our house. They are reliable, highly communicative, and send the sweetest photo updates. It gives us total peace of mind knowing our pup is safe, happy, and well taken care of when we travel. They watch over our house, water the many plants and leave the house sparkling with the laundry done! We cannot recommend them enough!
Claire was fantastic. From the moment we met her, she was warm, professional, and clearly experienced with dogs. She took exceptional care of my anxious dog, Balu, and we were so relieved to come home to a relaxed, happy dog. Claire kept us updated with photos and messages throughout our trip, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. She stayed in our home and left everything spotless. We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter and wouldn’t hesitate to book her again if she’s available.
Dahlia was fantastic to work with. She was great at communicating and sent daily updates of our pups while we were out of town. I felt confident our pets were well cared for. She was respectful of our home as well. I would definitely recommend Dahlia for any housesitting and pet needs.

Emily took excellent care of Addison! I was fully able to enjoy my time away knowing Addison was in great hands. And was so happy to find Addison calm and relaxed when I got home - not showing an ounce of stress (a rarity for her ☺️). We will definitely ask Emily back in the future - and highly recommend her.
