“Jayden watched my 2 big dogs and cat for a week at my house. They provided frequent updates and administered meds and made sure my picky animals were all well fed. We returned home to a cleaner house than we left it. They were wonderful and I’m so grateful for their care!”
“Ava was wonderful with our 3 pups. She knew how to manage their chaos and treated them so sweetly. She left the place looking great and really just went above and beyond. We will definitely be using her services again.”
“Alexa did a wonderful job taking care of our dog in our home over a long holiday weekend. She was communicative, made sure Beau got his walks and play time, left our home clean and our dog happy. She followed our instructions on everything and asked questions when she wasn’t sure about something. We hope our dog wasn’t too crazy for her, but we would gladly welcome her back! So grateful we found Alexa.”
“Elizabeth took amazing care of our dog and our home while we were away for a wedding this weekend. She is a great communicator, updated us every day on how our dog was doing, and our dog was in great spirits when we returned! We will definitely ask her to watch our dog again in the future and would highly recommend to a friend.”
“Mia was incredible with my cat Stormie! We were able to quickly schedule a meet and greet for her to meet Stormie and I could already tell she genuinely cared. She asked questions about feeding, whether Stormie likes to sleep in the bed, daily routine, and took notes when I explained some food changes due to Stormie's sensitive stomach. It is VERY clear she does truly love and care for animals. We had Mia watch Stormie for the weekend and came back to the apartment being clean, litterboxes were empty and freshly cleaned, etc. Mia sent regular updates as well with photos and videos of Stormie so I knew that everything was going smoothly. She also sent messages regularly about how they were playing with toys, how Stormie was doing, etc. I 100% will book with Mia again as I truly never felt more comfortable with someone watching my baby before now.”
“Claire was fantastic. From the moment we met her, she was warm, professional, and clearly experienced with dogs. She took exceptional care of my anxious dog, Balu, and we were so relieved to come home to a relaxed, happy dog. Claire kept us updated with photos and messages throughout our trip, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. She stayed in our home and left everything spotless. We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter and wouldn’t hesitate to book her again if she’s available.”
“Tara is fabulous with my cat. I appreciated how much time and energy she spent playing with Jim Catsby. She sent me awesome photos and a video of their time together. Tara really cares about Jim, and leaving him happy. I’m grateful for her passion for pets and their care. She is motivated to give our pets the best experience possible.”
“Jasmine was amazing! She showed great compassion toward our pups and responsiveness to our concerns. One of dogs had GI symptoms from the start of her visit. Jasmine monitored closely and took our pup to the emergency vet for us (the pup is fine 😊)… this was an unexpected snag that took a lot of time and care. But Jasmine did it willingly and kept us informed throughout. We will definitely hire her again!!! (Oh! And she did a great job taking care of the house too!)”
“Jade was wonderful and loving with our dog and respectful of our home. This was our first experience with a dog sitter. It was amazing and we would definitely have Jade sit for us again!”
“Annie watched our French Bulldog, Fiona, for 7 days. It was also a holiday weekend which is a big deal. She did a great job with Fiona! She would send pictures and Fiona looked like she was in her element at home. I felt so comfortable with Annie taking care of Fiona that I didn't feel the need to check in constantly (which is a big thing for me). She also left the apartment just as clean as we had left it! She was great!”
“I came home to happy pups, that’s all I can ask for. Lizbeth was very sweet with my 3 dogs who all differ in personality. She was easy to communicate with and kept me updated while I was away. I will be using her again for future sitting needs.”
“Nicole is so sweet and communicative! She was quick to respond from the first message I sent her inquiring about her availability. She took good care of our pups and would be happy to have her watch our girls again!”
“Haley and Emphraim were incredible! We were nervous leaving for 3 weeks, but the daily updates of our happy dog gave us enormous peace of mind throughout. We (and our dog!) could not be happier working with them.”
“Nicole was the absolute best with your boy Chico. He need alot of specialized attention and is reactive with other dogs and she navigated everything like a pro. She left our home spotless and was so respectful while staying. We got so many pictures and updates - it was the first trip I had where I didn’t have anxiety about how Chico was doing. She even trimmed his nails and got him a bandana - can’t say enough great things. Will 1000% book with Nicole again”
“Jozelin did a great job with our two cats. Lots of pictures of them hanging out together. She left everything in order after her stay at our place, and we will definitely book with her again.”
“Nicole did an amazing job! She tried her best to maintain the same schedule our dog is used to. She took her out for walks and kept her mind mentally challenged. I will definitely use her services again.”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was a child. I’ve loved animals since I can remember and I am very passionate about their wellbeing. I have experience with a variety of breeds and with senior care. I have not had a a dog in my home since my 17 year old chihuahua, Taco Bell, passed away last year. He was my heart and with not having a furry friend at home any longer any chance I’ve gotten to interact with any pup since has filled me with so much joy. Pets are family and I will care for yours as if they were my own. I’m just getting started on Rover and my schedule is very flexible. I can work my day around your pet and their needs. If you choose me as a repeat sitter I will gladly adapt to your pets schedule. I care for others pets as if they were my own. I’m currently unable to host pets in my own home but I will gladly take care of your baby in the comfort of their own home. Being in a familiar environment will help your pet feel more at ease and comfortable. I will be mindful and respectful of your space while I am there. I will follow whatever routines you have in place for your pet to ensure their peace and happiness.
About: I grew up in a household full of pets and have been lucky to live with people who also own pets, sharing the responsibility. Over the years, I've taken care of many dogs and several cats, rodents (guinea pigs and hamsters), hermit crabs, and fish. I have mostly owned small dogs and have been lucky to see them mature into their senior years, so I am familiar with the unique challenges that can come with age. I do feel comfortable walking and caring for dogs of any size. Right now, my family is fostering two 6-week old puppies who need lots of attention and care, so I am learning a lot about puppies. While I haven't yet charged for my services, I have been trusted by friends, family, and community members since I was 15 to pet-sit and house-sit. I graduated from college a year ago and have been bouncing around a lot, working ground control at music festivals. Between festivals, I need a place to stay, so I am especially looking for house-sitting opportunities to spend my time and have furry friends keeping me company. Other than sits and drop-ins, I'm not working, so I can give your loved ones the time and attention they deserve. I am big into travel, so I've met and lived with animals around the world. I've volunteered at shelters in the Bay Area, SoCal, and Louisiana. I was most recently living on a horse ranch in Georgia (the country) and took care of 2 farm dogs and a kitten. They were very independent and mostly required food, water, and serious cuddles. On the other hand, I've watched pets of various temperaments that had strict diets, medication schedules, and mental and physical health needs. I know every animal is different, and I'm happy to do all I can to care for yours just as you would. If your pet needs to sleep in bed with someone at night or other specific requests, I can do that. I will also be exploring Chicago for the first time, so if your dog has any favorite parks or routes, I would love to know!
Englewood pet parents share their Rover experiences
Maniyah did an amazing job caring for my Yorkie, Major, while I was away. From the very beginning, she was professional, communicative, patient, and genuinely caring. Major is very emotionally attached to me and normally takes time warming up to people, but he became extremely comfortable with her throughout the stay, which gave me a huge sense of peace while traveling. She consistently kept me updated with messages, photos, and videos, which I truly appreciated. I could tell Major was receiving attention, love, playtime, and comfort while I was gone. She also followed his routines closely and treated both Major and my home with care and respect. Overall, Maniyah made this entire experience smooth and stress-free for me. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, compassionate, and reliable to care for their pet. Thank you again for taking such great care of my little guy!
Claire was fantastic. From the moment we met her, she was warm, professional, and clearly experienced with dogs. She took exceptional care of my anxious dog, Balu, and we were so relieved to come home to a relaxed, happy dog. Claire kept us updated with photos and messages throughout our trip, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. She stayed in our home and left everything spotless. We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter and wouldn’t hesitate to book her again if she’s available.
Jasmine is the epitome of caring combined with professionalism. She took care of my small shorkie for an extended stay and when i returned my pet was calm and well cared for. Jasmine checked in every day with a quick message update and pics to let me know how things were coming along. She even checked in on the plants as well. Highly recommend this sitter and will use her again
Dahlia was fantastic to work with. She was great at communicating and sent daily updates of our pups while we were out of town. I felt confident our pets were well cared for. She was respectful of our home as well. I would definitely recommend Dahlia for any housesitting and pet needs.
Marlicia is the best!!! She is a wonderful dog sitter and home sitter as well. My husband and I have used her three times now and will continue to do so whenever possible, she is attentive to the dogs schedules and routines, sends multiple updates and is always easy to get a hold of if needed. We can tell our dogs enjoy their time with her as well, when we come home they are relaxed and happy, which is truly the piece of mind we need. She also has had to manage random scenarios that came up and is so go with the flow. For example The first time we used her services she had to facilitate our movers dropping off all our stuff while we were on a cruise and not reachable for some time 😱 she also even gave us a present when we came back from our wedding trip, which meant a lot to us! she is excellent at long stays as well, all three times we have had her stay with the dogs we were gone for 8-10 days. Plus she is able to walk our 90lb Doberman and 50lb Aussie at the same time (not easy to do at all!) and we could tell she had experience with all different dog breeds and sizes. I cannot recommend her enough!
Emily took excellent care of Addison! I was fully able to enjoy my time away knowing Addison was in great hands. And was so happy to find Addison calm and relaxed when I got home - not showing an ounce of stress (a rarity for her ☺️). We will definitely ask Emily back in the future - and highly recommend her.
I booked with Ash to watch my kitten for Labor Day weekend and they did an AMAZING job with little Stormie. They were able to plan a meet and greet with us and to see the apartment and immediately did great with Stormie. I got picture updates and always knew she had her breakfast/dinner, playtime, etc. My apartment was clean upon our return as well, so absolutely zero complaints 💙😊 10/10 would recommend to anybody needing someone kind and trustworthy to pet sit for them.
