“Matt was wonderful! He is very polite and accomodating. I am a bored fur baby mom; I spoil my dogs and know it! Matt gave me detailed status reports on them every day I was gone along with better pictures than I can ever manage of them as well! It always put a smile on my face reading about their adventures every morning. I 100% recommend, and while I usually travel with them, I will reach out to him again next year when I travel overseas.”
“Janey takes good care of my dog Lucy. She is very attentive. She takes her for walks. Lucyenjoys playing with her children and especially with her dog Koko. She sends pictures and communicates well. I never worry when I have to leave her with Jenay. My mind is at ease.”
“My pup loved staying a Bianca’s! She is super communicative and sent plenty of pictures. He looked so happy there! I had zero worries about my pup while he was with her. Will 100% be using her again!”
“Erin was great. If you don't believe me, just ask our beagle, Bailey. All of the many photos and videos that she sent were one of the highlights of our vacation. It made us feel relaxed to see Bailey so happy to be playing with Erin's dog--they both had a wonderful time. We will certainly have Erin watch Bailey again.”
About: I worked in the veterinary field for 10+ years and petsmart for 7 years. I am a certified dog trainer in basic obedience and desensitization for veterinary visits. I can provide basic vet care for at home pets. I am the to go person for answering questions and helping out. Did I mention I just love animals? I am availible most of the time, unless I am already booked. I do work relief on occasion as an assistant for short shifts. I also do freelance art at home! When I'm not working I'm mostly a squishmallow, cuddly couch potato. Perfect for your furry little friends. We will have a daily routine focused around food, potty, play, and sleep. I won't lie, I'm a late riser, perfect for snuggling fur friends. For walks, drop-ins, and stays, I am willing to offer short walks(15-20min) a few times a day for potty breaks, and extra cuddles if desired. For in-home sitting, pets will be able to free play with in-home pets, plus access to large fenced yard. For all bookings, practical training may be given as nessesary for structure during that time. Plenty of toys and treats will be given (with your permission of course.) Please consider I have a friendly dog I may keep with me if you want an overnight stay. The dog is good with most dogs and likes cats. Otherwise, I'm happy to hang out during the day for a while and do drop-ins. Please be aware there may be extra charges for additional or expanded services as well as frequent or difficult services
“Katie was great! She helped out with a last-minute weekend boarding booking; her house was welcoming, and the daily photo and video updates were great to receive while I was out of town!”
“This was our first time leaving Addie with a dog sitter rather than boarding in a facility. Addie had an awesome experience. She was well taken care of and made a new friend. Ashley and her family made Addie feel loved and like she was part of their family. We received daily updates too as promised. I highly recommend Ashley and we will definitely board Addie with her again in the future.”
“Jennifer’s place is like a home away from home for my furbaby. She gets super excited every time we approach the street and she has a blast on every visit. Jennifer’s love for dogs really shines through.”
“Ebony was kind and patient with our dog who isn’t used to being without us. She sent me pictures all weekend and kept me updated on what they were up to! Our dog, Raisin, came home tired but happy - the sign of a fun few days. I am so thankful that Ebony put my mind at ease and made me feel sure that Raisin was in good hands!”
“Starr is absolutely the best. She is caring and compassionate. Sends lots of pictures which is very reassuring. Starr and her children gave our Winston lots of loving. We will be using her for all of our future sitter needs.”
“Beth was a perfect fit for us! Turq warmed right up to her and they really seemed to match each other's energy. We got plenty of updates which assured us he was comfortable and happy, which we loved. We will absolutely be booking again!”
“Francie was absolutely wonderful. She went above and beyond to work with my schedule and made pick-up/drop-off so easy. She sent pictures every day and I could tell how much my pup enjoyed his time. She was very communicative and kept me up to date on how he was doing. Definitely recommend. I will be booking with her next month as well.”
“Our dog Dobby just finished her first tryout stay with Daniela. It seems like she had a good time and there weren't any big problems. Daniela kept us in the loop and sent lots of pics during the days. Dobby seems pretty happy with her stay, so we are as well. We will definitely be getting in touch with Daniela again for further dog watching.”
“Mary did a great job with Hudson! He is shy at first but warmed up to her really nicely! She is always very responsive and accommodating. Will be contacting Mary in the future when we need more help with him!”
“we booked at the last min and the availability was open she responded quickly very friendly our Ziggy had a blast we was a little late picking him up and they was very understanding! We will most definitely be reaching out again!Thanks again!”

Mark was wonderful with my girl Stevie! She requires a bit more attention as she has Cushing’s, daily medication and lots of water access. Mark was attentive to her needs and sent me daily photos of Stevie and his cat dog, Henry. I felt great leaving Stevie with Mark and Alicia!

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 Meet & Greet .
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in IL ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
