“Blythe took such good care of our pets and home. She went out of her way to schedule fun things for our dog, and she clearly loved all the attention, and the cats loved the snuggles. Thank you, Blythe!”

“I had Carolina do some dog sitting in my home while I was out of town and I could not be happier. She took great care of my senior dog, Joey. He had plenty of exercise and walks, was well loved, she kept him great company and treated him like he was her own. Joey has some medical issues and requires medications throughout the day and she was very diligent about following his schedule. She gave constant updates, pictures and videos, which was much appreciated. Carolina was extremely respectful of my home, and pretty sure my place looked better than when I left. The next time I need someone to look after my old guy, I hope Carolina is available, I highly recommend her.”

“We were very happy with the communication and attention to detail while watching bella. Not only did she take great care of our dog but also our house 🧡 we would definitely recommend her and use her in the future”

“Excellent communication from the start. Came for a greet and meet and easy to be with and obvious knew dogs well. Ended up a friend of mine knows Alissa so a double excellent reference. She communicated with me constantly throughout the stay. My dog is a senior and she did well with him and when I returned he kept roaming into where she was staying in my place. Would have back again as she is available.”

About: As a kid, I was a go-to dog sitter for several neighborhood dogs while their owners were out of town. I have experience walking, feeding, and letting dogs out when they need. Most importantly, I’m best at giving dogs love, attention and pets! I am a band teacher, so my schedule varies depending on the time of the year. I also have a 35 minute commute to and from work, which affects the hours that can make in-home visits. I return to school on August 25th. My work hours during the school year are 7:30-4:00pm, plus the commute both ways. During the school year, I am only available for overnight stays on the weekends from Friday-Sunday. This might vary depending on different breaks during the school year. I am a warm, patient, and caring person. Whether your pet eagerly greets me when I arrive, or if they need more time to warm up to me, I will be flexible to your pet’s needs.
“Stephanie took amazing care of our dogs! Definitely 5/5 stars!! She was loving, kind, and prompt and we would definitely use her services again in the future!”

“Alexy & Dylan were great. Loved getting all the pictures and updates while we were away. Will definitely be using them again! Thank you so much!”


“Daniela is just so amazing. My little meatball is a lot at times and she handled it all with grace. She continually communicated with me which just eased my anxiety and allowed me to enjoy my vacation because I knew my dog was being cared for so well. Also appreciate all the informed consent prior and taking time to meet him.”

“Liz was wonderful! Excellent communication. This was my first time using Rover and she made for an amazing first experience. I will definitely use her services again.”

About: I have 3 cats & a dog who I treat as if they were my biological children. One of my cats & my dog are medically “blessed,” so I have experience giving meds & sticking to dietary restrictions. They are also anxious creatures, so I’m more than experienced in the world of patience. I foster for a cat rescue who saves stray cats & have experience with getting cats/kittens to trust me. I work full-time but am available weekday evenings for drop-ins & walks. I am available for boarding & house-sitting on weekends or over holidays. My weekends are flexible, so I can also accommodate medication schedules easily With a fenced in yard, dogs can enjoy time outdoors safely. I live in a quiet neighborhood that allows for nice walks. My dog & cats are very laidback. For other dogs, after a proper introduction, my dog loves playing with other dogs & is cat savvy. Since I foster, I also have a separate room where I could keep any cat guests.
“We came home to 4 happy healthy fur babies from our week long vacation. Lots of photos and check ins were sent to ease our mind. Our bed sheets were washed and bed re-made, house stayed clean. There is no doubt I will use Pat again. AMAZING!!”

“River was amazing with our dogs. She gave them space until they felt comfortable with us not being home. She was great with communication and giving us updates while we were gone. It really made us feel comfortable being able to take a vacation without worring about the dogs. I highly recommend river they are amazing!”

“My cats do not like anyone but Nimbus loved her. Even looked for her after she was done watching them. There was also the added task of keeping my fish alive and they were all there when I got home. As long as Emily isn't busy, she will probably be watching the cats again.”

“Maiah did a terrific job taking care of my dog. She gave us daily updates and photos, left the house clean and even stayed with my dog so she didn’t get lonely! Amazing!”

“Berenice has a great heart for animals. Our dog has special needs and required hand feeding for meals. I think she would be a wonderful addition to your household, as an animal sitter. She has a kind disposition and will treat your pet with the utmost care. She left the house clean and played with our dog outside - he likes to sleep and can be lazy (so it was nice she provided enrichment playtime)! We got picture updates. She was on time for the meet and greet / when we left for our family trip to see relatives. Our dog seemed happy and content when we got home.”

“I can't say enough about how great Rachel is! Bunnies are very hard to care for, and she does it at an all-star level. We came home to clean, happy bunnies and a beautifully cared for home. She sent great updates every day that made us smile! We will have her back every time we need a sitter.”

About: I LOVE DOGS. Their lives are short, and I want to help them enjoy those years with comfort, care, and fun. I have had a dog companion in my life since I was five years old. I especially enjoy caring for high-energy dogs who need regular exercise—I’m always up for long walks, playtime, or outdoor adventures. I also have experience with senior dogs, and I understand the importance of patience, gentle handling, and keeping routines consistent. I’ve successfully trained dogs to potty outside, sit on command, and even walk off-leash. Whether your pup is young and active or older and needs a slower pace, I’ll make sure they’re well cared for while you’re away. I function better with a dog at my side. Dogs help me start my day with purpose—there’s nothing like a good morning walk to get us both moving and ready for breakfast and whatever the day brings. I love building routines that keep dogs active, happy, and well cared for. I work remotely, so my schedule is very flexible and allows me to be fully present for pet care throughout the day. With cats, I understand how much they value consistency. I’m attentive to their morning and evening routines—feeding, cleaning the litter box, and giving them space or affection depending on their mood. I also make time for play and interaction throughout the day, based on each cat’s personality. Communication is everything. I try to make sure I understand each animal's boundaries and needs before providing care, this includes list of allergies and medications.
“Elizabeth took amazing care of our dog Layla while we were away. She kept us updated with sweet messages and photos, and we could tell Layla was happy and well-loved the whole time. We came home to a relaxed, content pup — we couldn’t ask for more! Highly recommend Elizabeth and would absolutely book with her again.”

“Lynette was responsible, reliable, and so sweet to our pups. She made sure they had food and plenty of attention. She’s sent great photos and we would absolutely trust her with our dogs again!”

Copernicus Park pet parents share their Rover experiences
Alissa was amazing! I can’t say enough good things about her. Her communication was phenomenal and she went above and beyond to take great care of our dog while we were away on vacation. The house was perfect when we got back and she sent numerous updates and pictures while we were away. We would gladly welcome her back!

I couldn't be happier with my experience! Margaret was amazing with Theo — attentive, communicative, and clearly a true dog lover. I received regular updates, photos, and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. When I came home Theo didn't even want Maragret to leave! I’m so grateful to have found someone I can fully trust, and I’ll definitely be booking again. Highly recommend!
