“Would definitely use Glen again! He was kind, consistent and trustworthy. Took care of our 2 seniors dogs while we were out of town. He was always on time and patient with them. Kept in touch and sent pictures daily, made us feel very comfortable while away.”
“Amanda was excellent! She was very responsive setting up the appointments, and since it was her first time with my cats she did a thorough video call beforehand so she knew the ins and outs. My cats are shy but she made a point of ensuring she had a visual on both before she left. Diligently cleaned the litter box and also as a bonus cleaned up some vomit (sorry again and thank you!). Would definitely use Amanda again and recommend! Thank you!!”
“Alicia was excellent with our two cats. They warmed up to her quickly and they were very affectionate towards her. Alicia went above and beyond! We definitely book her again.”
“Shereen took great care of our cats, even skittish though they are seemed to warm to her! They weren’t too hungry or unhappy when we got back, so very pleased with how things went. Will book again!”
“Heather is always so attentive to my dog’s needs! I have a senior girl at home who is set in her ways, but she took to Heather immediately. She sends very detailed updates with photos AND videos to keep you in the loop. So glad we found her!!”
“Kylah was amazing! She was very patient and kind with my senior dog Seffora who is almost fully blind. She gave Seffora tons of cuddles and belly rubs and I was able to feel very comfortable that my baby was in good hands while away! I am very pleased with a wonderful first experience using Rover, I definitely recommend Kylah!”
About: I've had two Labs of my own and loved them to the end. I would love to bond with your fur baby now! I enjoy walks and play time. Family and friends have relied on me to take care of their pets when they go out of town. Pets bring me joy. I have open availability most days/times as I am not currently working. Sunday would be my most restrictive day. However, if I have advanced notice it may work. I will make sure that all details and expectations given are met. It is important to me to ensure that the pet is well cared for, fed, and walked in a timely manner. I will take care of your pet as if it were my own.
“We asked her to house sit and take care of our three cats. Everything worked out well. We have one cat who needs to be fed frequently -- we really appreciated how she took care of him. As expected, she spent the night, everynight, but was in and out during the day. That worked for us for house sitting, and we'd welcome her back for our next trip. She's very nice and friendly, very eagar to please.”
About: I am an Animal lover! I had two doggies aged 18 and 17 named Oreo and Chip Ahoy. I also have a 3 years old kitty. Her name is Cookie. I have experiences on both dogs and cats and I would also want to share my loving and caring to your furry babies. My wife and I also travels a couple times a year. I understand the frustration and truly want to help to take care of your furry babies while you are not able to! I work during the week days, however maybe available to some afternoon hours. Please contact me first if you need me during the week. Otherwise, very much open on the weekends. Thank you! I have a 1 bedroom 1bathroom apartment. I have 1 cat living with my wife and I. We have a nice patio with gates and dog park in the community.
“Azaria was incredibly sweet and personable. She made me feel at ease immediately with her experiences working with dogs and cats. One of my kitties for sure seemed to enjoy the time we were away because he got so much loving from Azaria.”
About: I’ve had dogs since I was 5, and i’ve watched dogs for family and friends! I’ve taken care of dogs as small as a Yorkie, to as big as a Great Dane! I currently work as a softball coach so I am typically not available on Tuesdays or Thursdays past 5pm. Additionally, I have tournaments on the weekends which make me unavailable most weekends. But this all means that I would love to work for you during the day while you’re at work or just need a break! I can watch your dog in your own home, and I am very comfortable taking dogs outside or in the back yard. I will listen to your instructions regarding food and crating, as I know every home and animal is different!
About: I have grown up in an animal loving family my entire life. Despite my parents having four kids (with me being the youngest), we always made room for many furry friends. I have experience taking care of pets of multiple species and sizes, including dogs (ranging from Boxers to Miniature Dachshunds), cats (outdoor and indoor), and guinea pigs. Currently my family has three dogs and one cat, and I have two Ragdoll kitties! I currently work at home as a software engineer, but I work on my own schedule and can take breaks whenever needed. I also have most nights free to take care of your pet(s). I have multiple experiences caring for houses and I always make sure that the residence is secure and the pets are safe. Also, I have a girlfriend who lives with me that can take care of my own cats making my availability flexible.
About: Hi, my name is Jason and I'm a 33 year old cat focused sitter. From dropins to boarding and even small critter visits, I offer a range of options for those with smaller pets. I have been a sitter and rescue volunteer for over a decade and would love to bring that experience to your home! While I am cat focused, I also handle small and exotic pets as well. From birds, to lizards, to small little fuzzy critters I sit for them all. In the time that I have sat for cats and other little babies, I have learned how to handle different temperaments, administer medications, and ensuring good health each visit. While I love dogs, I personally do not sit for them. I have an extremely open and flexible schedule. I am able to maneuver my regular work around any sitting, boarding, and more so timing is rarely an issue. I get up early, can stay up late, if there is medication timing requirements as well that becomes my main focus and consideration. Since I focus on cats and small critters, my focus is always on making them feel safe and secure. If I sit for a cat, I ask about their temperament, any territory areas or food guarding, and that becomes step one each visit. I will always make myself available to them, but will never force myself past their comfort. I double check around my legs at every door, move slowly whenever entering a room they are in, and always slow blink to try and ease any tensions. If they are boarding with me, I usually stay in the room with them. Eating and sleeping near them the entire stay. For boarding, we have an office space 12x20 room for them with a litter robot, running water, nice window, and many sleeping areas for them. While our cats get along with all, we gurantee separation just in case.
“Kim was awesome with my kitkat; she definitely knew what she was doing! It was so nice to come home to a cat who was happy to see me because she had plenty of love and attention in my absence. Thank you Kim, will definitely be in touch again!”
“Alexander was kind, professional, dependable and provided updates about my cat while I was gone. He was flexible when I needed to modify the dates of care. He was responsive to messages. I would completely trust my cat with him again. Thank you Alexander.”

Fox Valley cat parents share their Rover experiences
This was our first time using Rover and it was better than advertised. Angela K. was our sitter of our 2 Maine Coon cats and she was AMAZING!!! She was professional and extremely friendly and we felt very comfortable having her in our home to take care of our cats. We will DEFINITELY be using Angela again.
Jessica was great and took good care of our 3 cats. They are very shy so starting out they were scared to come out from under the bed. But with loving care and an abundance of patience she gained their trust and got them eating and playing during her visits. We also loved the photos she sent after each visit. They were reassuring and helped us stay connected. Thank you!
Rachel has taken wonderful care of our kitten Kai. She has made sure he eats and drinks enough water. She has also played with him, sent us lovely photos and always kept us up to date with everything. We highly recommend Rachel and will definitely use her services again😊
