About: I have had 2 dogs and been watching them one since I was little and other since I was a teen to current. I’ve watched my family's dog for a week and making sure they get their exercise, feed, and playtime in. I do not have a job currently so I will be available for any day, if there’s any routines for your pets I advise to have it written on paper or text so I can follow it along with times. Prefer trained pets and if they have any cages/beds they can go to, I love animals dearly and I would do anything to make sure that they feel safe and that i’m not a threat.
“Anana took wonderful care of my dogs. Communication between us was excellent and my dogs were clearly taken excellent care of while I was away She also left my house in perfect condition. Highly recommend.”

“This is the second time Sarah has pet sat for us, and both times she took great care of our dog and our cat, and left our house immaculate. We will definitely be using her again in the future!”

“Joanna was great! So sweet with my clingy dogs! Kept me updated throughout my trip and my dogs love her. She’s extremely knowledgeable about dogs and that put me at ease instantly. It was a great experience- I definitely recommend!”

“Renee was wonderful with our 4 pets! She house sat for us for a few days and followed all of our instructions. Everything went so smoothly. She was very considerate and was not afraid to ask questions during her stay, which I prefer. She went above and beyond taking our dogs on super long walks (which she def didn’t have to, esp in the winter weather!). I am thankful to have had Renee taking care of our animals and will def rebook in the future!”


“Jenna is great! She was very responsive and our dog loved her. When we got home, it was obvious that he has been well taken care of and enjoyed his time with Jenna. Would very highly recommend!”

About: Hi there! My name is Nicky (he/they) and I’ve been taking care of pets for my neighbors, friends, and family members for upwards of a decade and am commonly regarded as the go-to sitter in my community. I strive to treat every pet (and owner) with the utmost respect and kindness, and I’ll follow your instructions to a T! (The T stands for toe beans 🤓) Currently unemployed due to layoffs in my industry, so I’ll be able to give your fur bestie as much attention as possible! I can do overnights, multiple nights in a row, or just a drop-in/walk; whatever you need - I got you! :) I have a fenced yard in front of my apartment complex so your fur bestie can run free and tire themselves out before beddybye! I can crate your pup if you provide one or they can get some shut-eye on the couch or wherever they’re comfy!

“This is our second time having Adam stay at our house. Our dog, Oliver, absolutely loves having him here. Oliver is an anxious dude and Adam def made us all feel less worried about Oliver while we were out of town. Super appreciative.”

“Dylan was a wonderful sitter! He was very accommodating to my last minute plans and was able to come to my house to sit my dog Sabu. I think Sabu really enjoyed his time with him and I would recommend him to any pet parent!”

“Emily was great to work with and really helped us out on short notice a couple of times. She was flexible, easy to coordinate with, and clearly understood what our dog needed. We felt very comfortable leaving him in her care and have already booked her again. Thank you, Emily!”

“Stephanie did an amazing job with my two elderly Boston Terriers. She always kept me updated every day and sent some great photos/videos. I highly recommend her for any sitter job. Thank you so much!”
“Tammy was a fantastic sitter for my cat Solana! She was so kind and asked all detailed questions about my cat’s medication and food schedule. I loved all the picture updates she gave of how my cat was doing while I was out of town. Thank you Tammy!”

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for pets in many different life stages and personalities. I have a 15 year old senior Chihuahua who has been through surgeries and illnesses, and through attentive care, patience, daily walks, and lots of love, she is still healthy, happy, and strong today. I also rescued an adult cat from the street who is now around 3–4 years old. Helping him adjust taught me patience, understanding, and how important it is to make animals feel safe and comfortable. In addition, I have an energetic 8-month-old kitten who keeps me active and experienced with younger pets as well. I am also a runner who’s ran the Chicago marathon, I am prepared to keep up with high energy pups! My pets are truly my family, and I understand how important it is to trust someone with your animals. Under my care, your pets will be treated with the same patience, attention, love, and priority that I give my own. I am available most days of the week for walks and drop-in visits, for house sitting I am mostly available on weekends. I keep my schedule updated daily :) I will care for your pet in your home and always follow your instructions carefully to maintain their normal routine and comfort. I understand how important it is to keep things consistent for animals, so I will make sure to follow all feeding schedules, care notes, and any special directions you provide. I will also provide regular updates so you can feel confident and at ease while you’re away, including messages, photos, and any important notes about how your pet is doing. My goal is to keep you fully informed and reassured. Most importantly, I will care for your pet in the environment where they feel safest and most comfortable, your home, so they can stay relaxed, secure, and stress-free while receiving attentive and loving care.
About: I'm a playful and fun friend to animals of all kinds! While this app is focused on dogs and cats, I have expeirence with reptiles as well. I'm cool under pressure and can handle hectic environments. The wildest experience I've had was with 3 grown dogs, 8 puppies, and a cat. Best weekend of my life. I have one regular client in the mornings, Mon-Wed. outside of that, I tend to prefer about 5+ days' notice for sits, 2+ for drop-is & walks. I can be flexible when my schedule allows 👍🏾 I'm adaptable and can adopt whatever schedules and routines you specify for your pets. I know it's good for dogs to get some exercise, so I'll play with them as much as I can. (a win-win since it's also good cardio for me!) If they're good with other dogs, we'll go to the dog park! With cats, I find it's best to follow their lead to an extent. I'm observant and will get a good idea of their boundaries quickly.
“Iwona is great with our dogs! She has house sat for us twice and taken such amazing care of both the dogs and the house. She loves on our dogs so well, they barely even notice that we are gone!”

“This was my 1st time leaving my dog for a long weekend and I couldn’t have chosen a better caregiver for him. My Murphy is a rescue & has some anxiety issues but Jo handled him with patience, understanding and love. She tapped in to her knowledge of dogs and put both myself & Murphy at ease. She tried a few new toys/treats with him which he loved and sent me plenty of pics and videos of Murphy throughout the weekend. I would highly recommend her and would definitely use her services again.”

“Tiffany was a fantastic house sitter for our 9-month-old puppy! She was responsive, professional, and made sure our dog felt comfortable and well cared for while we were away - which gave us great peace of mind. We will definitely use her again and highly recommend her!”

Jo was fantastic with our older doggo. This was our first time leaving our dog since she began needing medication and special handling, and Jo made us feel so reassured. Jo was attentive and detailed oriented with medication, feeding, and potty instructions. She also went above and beyond for our girl who’s anxious during thunderstorms and fireworks. Jo was very respectful of our house by keeping it tidy, and was extremely responsive and flexible while we were away. We look forward to having Jo watch our girl again in the future and would highly recommend her!

Kelso made me feel at ease while watching my chihuahua, Selena, while I was out of town. I was very nervous having someone new come in that I didn’t know seeing as my ex always watched my dog for me in the past. This was my first time hiring someone. She gave me updates with pictures and videos that I loved! Great communication throughout the stay. Selena enjoyed her company as well and I will definitely use her in the future as long as she is available! 10/10 would recommend her to anyone I know looking for a sitter. Thanks kelso!

Kailani was so great to our 2 large dogs while we were out of state for a week! She handled their anxiety, medications, and schedule perfectly (even graciously adding on a stop-in when our flight was extremely delayed). Kailani communicates promptly and proactively offered helpful information regarding her stay/availability. Would highly recommend!

Incredible from start to finish. My first time using Rover and I will for sure be using Melanie again. She made the process so easy, was incredibly reassuring, dealt with the quirks of a new rescue (and non working washer) and I was 100% comfortable my dog was in the best hands. Would recommend without reservation
Jenna was simply outstanding and I will be requesting her in the near future. She took care of my home as if it was her own. She took of my dear Sasha as if it was her own. I traveled for 10 days and Jenna frequently sent pictures and did a great job following the items I left for her. Thank you Jenna for such a great job.
We had a wonderful experience! Kaylena followed all of Eevee’s puppy instructions perfectly—from her feeding schedule and pad training. Kaylena is reliable, respectful of our home, and gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Eevee loved you! Will absolutely book again.

Annabel did an amazing job caring for our pup! We had some last-minute travel come up, and she was able to help us out and watch our little guy. Communication was excellent throughout, our dog had a great time (and he's not the easiest guy!), and the house was spotless when we got back. Overall, it was a 10/10 experience, and we'll definitely be reaching out to Annabel again for future dog-sitting needs.

I had a wonderful experience with Anana and would absolutely hire her again. She was communicative, responsive, and kept me updated throughout her stay with plenty of pictures, which gave me peace of mind. It was clear that my dog Springer was well cared for and happy. She also left my home in excellent condition. I highly recommend Anana for dog sitting!
