“Dave was very good with my recent rescue Duke while I was on vacation. Received pictures/info every day, and very timely responses. Will use again when I go on next trip.”
“Denise is an excellent pup caregiver! She is knowledgeable about dog care and did execptionally well with our puppymill rescue Maggie who is usually very timid and shy. Maggie took to Denise right away and was kissing her hand and going to her for pets and ear rubs during our meet and greet. Maggie's tale was wagging in the update photos sent and she ate and took her meds without any issues. I highly recommend Denise and will definitely use her again!”
“Barbara had great communication and provided pics and updates. I appreciated that she provided my pup with lots of activity and our dog was pooped when she got home!”
“We’ve used Mallika multiple times and have had a wonderful experience each time! We love receiving so many updates and pictures. It gives us peace of mind knowing he’s well cared for while we’re away. Highly recommend!”
“Kuma had a great time with Connie and her sweet dog, JoJo! Connie was flexible with drop off/pick up, communicative, and sent photo and video updates- I’d definitely recommend Connie for all pet sitting needs!”
“We are so glad Mocha stayed at Keith’s house over the holidays because he was treated like “family”! Keith took the time to get to know Mocha’s needs and took excellent care of him. As Mocha gets older, we worry more about leaving him, so seeing pictures of him curled up on a lap let us know that he felt happy and safe! Keith was flexible and easy to communicate with. We hope Mocha will get the chance to stay with him again!”
About: Empty nester with 1 dog in a relaxed atmosphere with lots of laughter and love. I have a 2 level home with 3 bedrooms and a basement. Your dog will enjoy our fenced in yard and his/her own space. I have lots of experience with dogs of all sizes and all ages. I value outdoor time when weather permits and your pet will get fresh air and exercise daily. I have a goofy Australian cattle dog mix named Lenny. I let dogs on the furniture, and provide lots of cuddles if your dog allows. I am a responsible person who sincerely loves dogs and taking care of them! I’m working but make my own hours so can accommodate varying schedules. Love to take long walks on weekends in my neighborhood or at nearby parks. I have a fenced in yard. I will keep the dogs separate. Your pet can sleep in a crate if he/she wants or on comfy pet beds - whichever works best.
“The most amazing and patient couple! Our puppy is a challenge to say the least but we felt super comfortable having Neelank watching Nikki. The communication was superb and we appreciate the constant updates and photos. Thank you so much for letting our girl stay with you. It was such a pleasure to meet such great people! I’d definitely book with them again … if they allow us? and promise Nikki will be less crazy.”
About: Hi i’m Trinity! I’m 26 currently working as a full time Executive Assistant running a professional haunted house. 🦇 I’m a lover of all things Halloween and when i’m not occupied with work, I love spending time with pets! I don’t have any of my own at the moment, but it’s something I’m trying to save up for! I have become a local favorite for neighbors and friends! I have years of experience with high energy, elderly, and special needs dogs. I’ve had family pets my whole life so I have plenty of experience with basic care as well. Aside from the usual errand runs, I am normally home during the day - so the pets will have minimal alone time! As long as you approve, your pup can be attached to my hip 🖤 My booking calendar is updated frequently, so the current availability should be accurate. Let’s connect and see if it works! To ensure the safety of the pets, I only host one family at a time. At my home, pups are more than welcome to lounge on the furniture. I provide clean bowls, toys, along with sniff pads and frozen treats! We have a back patio that is not fenced in, but there is a lead we can attach to the collar so they can stay within sight. Walks through the neighborhood are always an option as well! ✨Can provide multiple references ✨
“Zuko had a great time with Kimberly and her lovely family. They took such good care of my dog, were extremely responsive and sent loads of pictures. Zuko would be thrilled to go back to stay with Kimberly.”
“Our dog Cindy comes home after a visit with phyllis and Greg calm and happy. When we drop her off at their house, she is happy and wags her tail. That says it all.”
“Jan was a dream dog sitter! Our elderly dog was comfortable and so carefully cared for under Jan’s care. She was responsive, flexible, communicative, and takes great pride in her individualized care of each dog she cares for. You can trust Jan- she is amazing!”
“I cannot recommend Bailey enough! I was out of the country for a week, with little to no signal, and Bailey still managed to keep me updated as much as she could. My dog, Leo, wasn't eating alot in the beginning and Bailey did everything she could to get him eat and gave him a bath or two after rolling he rolled in poop lol. It was my first time using Rover and I'm so glad I came across her profile! Also, it was a last minute booking and she was able to accept Leo. Thank you, Bailey, for taking care of Leo as if he was your own pup. I know he misses you! Will definitely be rebooking!”
“My dog Olly had his best vacation at Allis' place. Allis was pleasant to work with, very responsive and regularly shared videos and pics of Olly too. I would love go back to her in future too and also recommend her to anyone in need.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Glen Ellyn
Jean and Al were so great. They treated our girl like she was their own. We could tell how happy and comfortable she was with the pictures Jean sent and even when we picked her up as she was happy to keep hanging out and play while we talked whereas with a lot of other sitters, she’s been happy to go home asap.
Thrudy & her boys took wonderful care of Poppy! She kept us updated with photos of walks at a local park and the lake. Poppy seemed at ease from the start. It was obvious that her kids also love dogs. Knowing our pup was in good care gave us peace of mind while away. Highly recommend!
We had such a great experience with Edgar watching Koa over Labor Day weekend! Koa seemed right at home from the start—he ate well, got lots of playtime with Edgar’s kids and their dog London, and seemed so happy and comfortable when we picked him up. Edgar was incredibly thoughtful about the whole process and even set up a meet-and-greet beforehand so Koa and London could get to know each other and so we could see the space and feel comfortable leaving Koa there. He was kind, communicative, and genuinely caring, and kept us updated throughout the weekend. We wouldn’t hesitate to have Edgar watch Koa again!
Natalie was great with our dog while we were out of town. He got along great with her cats and we got plenty of pictures while we were gone of him living his best life looking relaxed and happy. We’d definitely book with Natalie again if she’s available next time we’re traveling!
Rachel is amazing!! She kept in touch with us throughout the stay which I really appreciated it, she sent photos and in every photo Stella looked so happy and I knew she was having a blast. Will definitely book with Rachel again. Thank you so much for taking care of our Stella girl💓
Julie was amazing with Greeicy! She took care of her as if she were her own dog and was very attentive the entire time. Greeicy had such a great time and was so happy to be around other dogs — I truly appreciate that! I’ll definitely book with Julie again next time!
