“I was so nervous to use a perfect stranger to watch my fur babies but Rachael and Logan came for a meet and greet. They instantly made us feel so comfortable. The 1st drop by visit went great and I loved all the pictures of their time together. It was awesome and it was super clear that our babies were having a great time. They are awesome”

“Sarah was great to my 2 dogs. One dog is very senior, and the other has health conditions. Sarah made sure she understood each dog’s needs, and asked questions when needed. I would highly recommend Sarah, and will be using her services again in the future.”

About: I have had dogs and cats in my life for as long as I can remember. I am just starting my Rover journey and cannot be more excited! I am comfortable around all dogs and willing to adapt and learn what is best for your pet. I will take care of your fur baby, go for walks, and even take them to dog parks if you like. I have two dogs of my own and a cat that believes he owns the house, lol. My schedule is flexible, and I can drop in and accept last-minute bookings. I am currently looking for my next adventure, and why not do something that I enjoy? I have quite a bit of free time during the day and would be more than happy to spend it looking after your cat or dog :) I live on five acres with a fenced-in backyard, plenty of space for dogs to be outside and run around and play. They're favorite on a nice day, just soaking up the sun!
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and currently have three large dogs, so I’m comfortable caring for pets of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I have experience helping raise and train puppies, including one who recently turned one year old, and I’m comfortable with everything from feeding schedules and administering medications to walks, playtime, treats, and cleaning up after pets. As a student-athlete home for the summer, I’d love to spend my extra time caring for animals and giving them the attention they deserve. My love for pets started at a young age—I even ran a homemade dog treat business to help earn money for my first two puppies! Since then, I’ve always enjoyed spending time with animals and treating them like family. Pet care fits very naturally into my weekly routine. I currently work part-time, which gives me flexibility throughout the day to provide walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, medication administration, and companionship. As a student-athlete, I’m used to managing a busy schedule and staying organized, so I always make sure pets receive reliable and consistent care. Between work shifts and practices, I have plenty of availability to give pets the attention, exercise, and love they deserve. I believe pets are most comfortable in their own environment, so I focus on providing care in my clients’ homes. I follow each pet’s normal routine, including feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and lots of love and attention. My goal is to keep pets happy, comfortable, and stress-free while their owners are away. I do not offer boarding in my home, but I’m happy to provide drop-in visits, walks, and in-home care tailored to your pet’s needs.
“Giselle is are now go to sitter! She is extremely good at following my crazy helicopter dog mom instructions😂 she is very professional and did everything we needed of her perfect and went above our expectations!! Our German shepherd is a little shy and also a ball of energy once warmed up and he loves her and we are so thankful for that because he can have a hard to warming up to people. I would 100% recommend her to anyone!”

“Andie!! Is the sweetest, most loving pet sitter we can ever ask for! She always goes above and beyond to make sure our furr babies feel taken care of! My pup loves her comforting presence and affection! Andie also responds promptly and is awesome about sending us cute photos of our pup & cat!”

About: Ive grown up with pets my whole life from puppies to seniors. This makes me versatile in taking care of any pet age, even training. I love any and all breeds of dogs with no preference. I also have had multiple dogs at the same time my whole life so caring for multiple pets at a time is no problem. I am currently home from college for the summer so my schedule is almost always open. I work at a restaurant in Plainfield a few nights a week for a couple hours otherwise I’m always available for your fur babies. I am very flexible in your personal rules of watching your pet. Crating, walking, or even supervised outside time are all things I respect along with anything else you specifically need for your pet. I have also had large and small dogs. I would love for your pet to stay in routine so I will try to follow that as closely as possible
“Nicole is a gentle and kind care giver who help our family by talking care of our beloved dog, Maggie while we were out of town for a memorial service. Normally, we take Maggie with us when we travel but this time it was not possible. Our daughter recommended we use Rover to find a sitter for Maggie and that's how we found Nicole. We arranged for Nicole to drop in during the day periodically to ensure Maggie was taken care of. Nicole was always on schedule and sent us photos of Maggie everyday. Nicole's daily reports gave us peace of mind and comfort knowing Maggie was doing well. We highly recommend Nicole. You can truly trust Nicole to provide a high level of quality care for your four legged family members when you are away from home. Our sincere thanks to you, Nicole.”

“Thank you being amazing and helping me understand how Rover works. This process was truly seamless. You were great with Boost and he also got to introduce you to his new friends that live next door 😂.”
