“Jax is a wonderful dog sitter. Not only is she great with dogs and a joy to talk to, but she is also very prompt and flexible, a great communicator and remembers every request or instruction. I would highly recommend her to take care of any pets.”


“Jacob was fantastic!! He took care of my daughters and my dogs during my daughter’s wedding. He took the time to meet them prior and sent photos along the way to let us know how they were doing!! I can’t that him enough for taking such great care of our fur babies and allowing us to be worry free on this very special day!!”


“Casey and her partner were absolutely amazing! They stayed at our home for two weeks and watched out German Shepard, Golden Retriever, and cat while we were in vacation. All three babies really seemed to love them. I always worry leaving the Shepard because she gets a bit anxious and doesn't eat or sleep, but Casey and her partner were so patient with her and she had no problems! Will definitely be booking with them again in the future!”

“Keri took great care of Benny! She stayed overnight and left the house clean. Keri gave updates and pictures along the way. We’ll definitely request her care for our big pup again soon.”


“Makayla was amazing! Our dog was pretty hesitant and unwelcoming at first but Makayla was really patient and they were best friends by the end of her stay. She was super responsive and great at sending video and photo updates!”


“1st time using Kaylie last weekend at the house - she was very thorough and took care of Sammi as per our directions. Will definitely utilize her again if we head out of town again. Very responsive and communicative.”


“Deja provided exceptional care for our two dogs over an eight-day period and also took great care of our home. She consistently kept us updated with photos and videos, ensuring we felt reassured that our dogs were in great hands. Upon our return, our home was spotless, reflecting her attention to detail and professionalism. We will be rebooking Deja for all our future travels.”

About: We’ve provided care for both our own and others' pets since we were children. Family, friends, and neighbors have trusted us to feed, water, play with, walk, and board their pets when they travel. Having lived both in the country and in town, we have both loved and cared for our own and others' cats and dogs for several years in several environments. We both have flexible working schedules, especially in the summer. We have plenty of time to devote to your beloved pet and are used to juggling multiple tasks. My husband and I live in a three bedroom house in Carol Stream, just outside Wheaton. We have a large yard with a 3-sided fence in which pets would be very safe with proper supervision. Pets would be welcome to lay and sleep wherever they are most comfortable - on our furniture, in one of our two beds, or in their own beds or crates. We are animal lovers and have had our own animals in our home. We have welcomed many a new pet into our home, so your pet would receive our love and care while staying at our home.

“Our dog Frida can be nervous around strangers which can lead to tense situations. Jessemy was perfect at making her comfortable and giving her space when she needed it, while also watching over our overly playful dog, Kinder. If you have a special needs dog, call Jessemy!”

Glen Ellyn pet parents share their Rover experiences
Nina went above and beyond for us! It’s always so hard to leave your furry babies but Nina is so kind and I know she loved on our animals just like we would. And she was so respectful of our home and sent us just the right amount of updates so we felt comfortable everything was fine but we weren’t bombarded with messages. We would use her again in a heartbeat and are so happy we found Nina. She’s well worth her daily rate 😊

Tori was awesome! We really appreciated her responsive communication and attentiveness. Our cats were calm and happy when we returned home from our trip, and we could tell they enjoyed their time with Tori. We also really appreciated the pictures and updates she sent while we were gone.
