“Leah was great taking care of our cat twice a day while we were gone for a long weekend! She sent us daily pictures and updates; We didn’t worry about a thing! Thank you!”
“Once again! Brinda was amazing with our sweet cat while we were away! Fabulous pictures, daily updates and made us feel at ease while we were on our family trip. We hope to continue using Brinda! Our boy was so happy and content on our return!”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Exceptional Cat Sitter – Punctual, Responsible, and Caring I cannot recommend Mariela enough! She is incredibly punctual, responsible, and attentive to my cat, Simba. From the moment I hired her, she was highly responsive and kept me updated, which made my vacation completely stress-free. Not only did she take excellent care of Simba—who absolutely adores her and thrives under her care—but she also went above and beyond by taking out trash. Her thoughtfulness and attention to detail truly set her apart. Thanks to her, I could enjoy my trip knowing Simba was in the best hands. In fact, I’m already looking forward to my next vacation because I know she’ll take care of everything perfectly! If you’re looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy cat sitter, look no further. Simba and I are so grateful for her outstanding service, and we’ll definitely be booking her again!”

“Emily was an absolute doll. She came through on a snowy holiday weekend and went above and beyond with our shy little Toasty girl. Emily was super communicative before, during, and after the drop-in visit. We could tell from the photos that Toast had a blast with her new friend!”
“Laura was great with the “boys”. I knew it was a great match when they revealed themselves to her on the first visit. Her attention to pet’s needs is admirable and she was sure to keep their dishes and litter box/area clean. Highly recommend. Will definitely book her again.”
“Giselle was the best at taking care of our two dogs. (5 stars ⭐️) She came by 5 times and was always on time and was there a good amount of time. Our picky dogs for sure loved her and we hope we get to work with her again. We recommend her for sure. Thanks Giselle!!”
“I had a wonderful experience with Susanna. She was professional, reliable, and showed genuine care and affection towards my cats. She followed all instructions and went above and beyond to make sure my cats was comfortable and well taken care of. I highly recommend Susanna for anyone in need of a trustworthy and caring person to look after their furry friends.”
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life—growing up with pets taught me to treat every furry friend like family. No matter where I go, animals always seem to find me, sensing the love and calm energy I bring. Over the years, I’ve become the go-to sitter for neighbors, friends, and relatives—some even plan their vacations around my availability! My care goes beyond feeding and walks; it’s about making your pet feel safe, loved, and completely at ease while you’re away. :)) I work from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide consistent, attentive care throughout the day! This is perfect for pets who love attention; honestly all pets! I mean..who doesn't love midday cuddles!? I currently don't have any pets, but that doesn't mean we can't have fun! With my flexible schedule, I can easily adapt to their needs. Whether that’s walks, runs, playtime, or just calming the zoomies! In your home and mine, I'll follow your routine closely to keep things familiar and stress-free.
“Maricela did drop in visits for us while we were on a cruise. It was my first time using Rover and I couldn’t be more pleased. She was super responsive to messages and always checking in. I have such a hard time leaving our pets for vacation but she made that part of the trip so easy for us. I would refer her to anyone who needed pet sitting services. I can’t thank her enough.”
“Nicole is a kind and lovely person. She was able to come early in the morning as requested. She was a thorough communicator and she even cleaned up a couple of messes! She was meeting my cats for the first time and tried hard to connect. I will definitely use her services again.”
“Jenny is so great with our dog and our puppy! We have loved using her the last few weeks and will continue to use her for as long as possible! We look forward to her pictures and detailed updates every time. Thanks Jenny!”
About: I am a dog owner for the past 7 years and own two Setter pups. Friends have entrusted me with their dogs for petsitting and dog walking - in some occasions I would have as many as 4 dogs with me, but I wouldn’t have it any other way! As a dog parent I know how important is to have someone you trust with your baby, I will treat your dog as my own, making sure your dog is safe and happy! I mostly work from home during the week, which allows me to be flexible to go on a walk with your pup to get some fresh air or do a drop in visit to spend some time with them. When I drop in to check on your pup or take on a walk, I will always follow your instructions closely and make sure they feel safe and comfortable. During walks, I will keep a close eye on them, always be on leash, and make sure they get the right amount of exercise based on their energy level. Afterward, provide a quick pupdate so you know your pup is happy and well taken care of.

Elk Grove Village pet parents share their Rover experiences
Susan is absolutely amazing. Not only is she skilled and trustworthy; she has a special heart for animals that few do. My Marv warmed up to her right away and he typically takes awhile! She quickly understood Marv for his quirks and leaned into those quirks with patience and adoration. We are so lucky to have Susan's animal heart, expertise, and reliability.
