“Teri was an excellent catsitter and really helped put our minds at ease that our cat would be well cared for while we were away. Teri was very commutative and flexible and we appreciated the detailed daily updates about our cat. We would definitely recommended and rebook with her!”
“Patient and has a good vibe all around. Happy we went with her! We feel comfortable having her with our dog. He can be a lot but she doesn’t seem shy or uncomfortable being around him.”
“We had Swagata watch our puppy for multiple days while at work since she wasn’t old enough to be left alone all day. Swagata was very accommodating and helpful, she sent lots of pictures and our puppy was always happy and well cared for. We will absolutely have her care for our puppy again in the future.”
“Faith is fantastic. She is so attentive to detail and truly cares for animals. I am so grateful for her help this week on a last minute request. She is a life saver. Highly recommend!”
“We recently moved into the area and started using Lindsey to drop in with our dog, Lucy, when she needs a little extra attention. Lindsey provides updates and photos, which gives us total peace of mind. She clearly loves Lucy and the other pets she provides care for. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker!!”
“Sam was very respectful, followed my instructions, and most importantly gave the care and attention to my cat that I was looking for. She met us beforehand as well and always sent a detailed note and photos after her visits. Thank you very much Sam!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! Guadalupe was reliable, caring, and treated our pups with love!!! We got regular updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were out of town camping. Our dogs were happy, well cared for, and clearly loved all the attention. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving sitter! We will definitely be using Guadalupe again!! We've already recommended her to neighbors!!!”
“Beth is so wonderful with my cats. They are so happy when she comes! I really appreciate how reliable she is and completely trust her caring for them. I highly recommend Beth. Thank you!”
“Barbara was so friendly and amazing. She was so attentive with Sammy, and she gave really nice updates that made me feel better while away from my cat! Will definitely be using her again!”
“Our feline princess is in her later years (19), and we are happy to spoil her in every way possible. We are thrilled to have found someone who looks after her with the same care as we do. Hope always arrives as arranged and takes the utmost care in looking after feeding and box cleaning as needed during her drop-in visits. We could not have dreamed for a better care-taker than Hope!”
“Toni always goes above and beyond with our cats! We have a shy cat and by her second time having come to visit, the shy girl was willing to make herself known. That speaks volumes about Toni’s soul. Such a good person. We can’t wait for her to visit again!”
“Diana was wonderful with our two playful kitties over the holidays! She was always on time, was very communicative, and had great attention to detail. Most of all, I can tell she really cares for animals. I highly recommend her and would love to have her watch our kitties anytime!”
“I have a very high maintenance cat (17, blind, won't eat, etc) and Mackenzie took such good care of her! She checked in twice a day and sent very detailed updates to let me know how Gracie was doing. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing the Gracie was safe and being well cared for by someone that really truly cared about Gracie's wellbeing. I'll definitely be rebooking with Mackenzie!!”
“Becca was an excellent sitter — reliable, communicative, and great with our pup. I appreciated the updates and photos while we were away. Highly recommend and would absolutely book again!”

Gurnee cat parents share their Rover experiences
We had a really great experience with our Rover sitter! They took great care of our dog Opal and our cat Azula while we were away. Communication was easy, we appreciated the updates, and it was nice knowing both pets were in good hands. Opal and Azula seemed happy and well cared for when we got back. We’d definitely book with them again!
