“Jill is great! She accommodated our need for a sitter after our regular cancelled last minute! She kept us updated, and we came back to a very happy dog! Will definitely be using her in the future and think you should absolutely give her a try too!”

“I cannot say enough good things about Rachel! Our dog got sick the first day we left and Rachel cleaned up and was able to get him the medication he needed. We were in Canada with very limited cell service and I trusted our 3 babes were in good hands!”


“Christie was fantastic! Biscuit does not like for us to leave her but she was actually good when we got home. Many times she has barked at us because she is mad that we were gone. She was glad to see us but not upset. Christie was very responsive by text and offered to send pictures while we were gone. Highly recommend!”


“This was our first time using anybody to watch our dog and home other than family or a boarding center, so we were super skeptical about the Rover process and hiring a stranger to watch our fur baby. However, quickly after meeting Logan, we knew we would welcome her in our home! She was very responsive, friendly and obviously loved animals. These traits were still apparent while she watched our dog in our home for 10 days. She sent us 2-3 pictures or videos of our dog daily (but also stated she didn’t have to if we didn’t want to be bothered on vacation) and we loved getting those updates! When we returned, the house was nice and clean, including fresh laundry and an empty dishwasher. She also offered to water our flowers and they were surprisingly healthier looking when we got back so I know she spent time holding up that offer too. Overall, our dog seemed happy and well cared for and we were pleased with the level of communication she provided. We will definitely use Logan again and would highly recommend her to anybody needing a pet sitter! We just hope she doesn’t get too popular! Thank you Logan!”

About: I am retired and able to take excellent care of your loved ones. I have been sharing love for animals of my own & others for over 50 years. I worked in the medical field for over 20 years cleaning up bodily fluids and making others feel safe and cared for. I have a portable wet cleaning machine for little accidents that does a great job. In the past I have been bonded and insured as well as a fiduciary. You can trust me to nurture your babies as I would my own. 4 legged co-workers are my favorite. I am retired so I am very flexible. Caring for animals is not a job; it is fun and very rewarding! My schedule revolves around you and your pets needs and wants. Every animal prefers their own environment, even if you are gone. I am happy to come into their home and take care of their needs while respecting your space. I will bring a portable wet cleaning machine for any accidents that does a great job. I am happy to sweep up hair for you as well using your vac.
About: Besides being a pet owner myself, I’ve worked for a puppy breeder, at well loved dog and cat grooming salons, and been a veterinary assistant where I gained experience in medications. How to orally and transdermally administer, as well as some injections and fluids. I’ve previously been a full time pet sitter/walker before as well! I’ve had lots of experience getting to know the needs and behaviors of dogs and cats. I’m a huge exotic animal lover too so if you have any rodents, lizards, snakes I’d be comfortable taking care of those! I’m currently doing pet sitting and walking full time so I have lots of free time to accommodate your pet needs whether that be multiple visit through the day, or 1 hour + long visits. I am more than comfortable to take care of dogs in yours and their personal home setting as well as welcoming them to my home. I live in a safe community with no pets or children of my own at home currently. I have a yard that is fenced and also have plenty of space to walk them around my neighborhood.
“Sam was wonderful! She cleaned up after herself, communicated with us really well, and most importantly, loved and cared for our pup like we do. She was incredibly thoughtful and intuitive about his care, and I felt completely comfortable knowing he was in good hands with her. We would absolutely have her back!”

About: I have had a dog since I was 8 years old and I grew up around many animals, such as cats and birds. I love to play with dogs and make them less anxious while their owners are away. I am a college student, so I am pretty busy, so I could not stay all day, every day, but I am happy to make it work any way I possibly can! I will keep a watchful eye on them when letting them outside and I will listen to them if they are whining and need something

About: I grew up taking care of and pet sitting a half dozen dogs between my own and cousins’ houses. I take pride in treating your pets like family and ensuring a good time is had by all. My schedule is open allowing me to take care of your dogs in your home, mine, or engage in a daily walk schedule, plan etc. I’m happy to oblige to the care of your pets in your home, but generally wouldn’t be boarding, so to say, animals in my own home. I have a vehicle outfitted with a safety net, as well as the experience to know that dogs can surprise you and it’s better safe than sorry. Leashes are constantly held and my attention is not often distracted from your pet while they’re in my care!
“Alexis was amazing and kept us in the loop with how our pets were doing. We got pics daily and she left our house in tip top shape. We highly recommend her and will definitely request her to come back. Thanks, Alexis!”

About: I’ve owned dogs, cats, and other animals since I was born. I watch my neighbors’ cats and/or dogs and I’ve given medicine and baths and anything else you can think of. I am currently available whenever to take care of any animals . I work little jobs whenever they come to me , I am free. I can easily crate the pet if needed. If the backyard is not fenced I will put a leash on them and walk them out there.
About: Hi! I’m a reliable and caring dog sitter with experience caring for dogs of different breeds and sizes. Having owned and cared for several dogs in the past, I understand the importance of providing love, attention, exercise, and a safe environment while you’re away. I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and treat every pet as if they were my own. I look forward to helping keep your furry friend happy, comfortable, and well cared for! I do have an another job I do as well but I make my own schedule with it so I have a very flexible schedule! I have a spacious apartment that your pet can roam freely around and it is dog proof as I have my own dog that your pet can play with!
“We love, Ariana! We were incredibly lucky to have her at the helm while we were away for a long, five days stretch across the country. Walter gets pretty anxious when we’re gone for more than a couple of days so it’s easy to tell when we get back how his experience has been. While he was happy to see us, of course, he was very calm, which means he had an incredible sitter and wasn’t worried or anxious in our absence at all. I got a ton of pictures and she was in contact consistently. As far as the house goes, you wouldn’t even know that we weren’t here aside from Walt being happy and her bringing in all the packages 💛.”

“Denzel took great care of my puppies, always replied in a timely manner, was very flexible with any request we had, very responsible. Will be booking with him in the future.”

“We came home to a happy and well taken care of pup! Katherine is friendly, responsible and flexible, and a pleasure to work with. We were pretty much 'helicopter parents' as this was the first time she stayed with our boy, and she accepted this with grace. We won't hesitate to ask her to stay with him again in the future!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Elmhurst
Jonathon was great with my three large breed pups ranging from 2 to 13 years old. Two required meds and he was able to maintain that easily even with the stubborn one. My house was just as we left it. He sent many videos and photos keeping me informed and allowed me to enjoy our trip knowing my babies were so well cared for.

Alexa was a dream to work with! She is extremely responsive and was very attentive to our needs. She house sat for us for a few days and sent us a bunch of cute pictures of Hamlet and Marty while we were away. She left the house exactly as we left it. We will be contacting her for our next trip!

Sam was wonderful! She cleaned up after herself, communicated with us really well, and most importantly, loved and cared for our pup like we do. She was incredibly thoughtful and intuitive about his care, and I felt completely comfortable knowing he was in good hands with her. We would absolutely have her back!
