“Anna was so great with my dogs! She communicated so well which helped us enjoy our vacation away from our dogs. They were taken care of so well with multiple walks, treats and attention!”

About: Growing up, I had a couple dogs. Along with family and friends always having dogs around, I have always taken care of dogs. I love to walk them, bathe them, and play! I would take care of your fur baby like my own! I have a flexible schedule and work independently so I have plenty of flexibility for you and your baby!❤️ What works for your schedule will most likely work for mine. I look forward to spend time with and take care of your baby and I will enjoy every second! You can trust me with your pet like it’s my own! I am an honest human being with a heart full of love and compassion. I would love to take your fur baby to the park to play and have fun, as well as a jog/walk of course, and I wouldn’t mind giving your baby a bath if need be! Perhaps a trip to the pet store to spoil?! Don’t worry cats will love me too! I know just the spot they love scratched and will offer plenty of playtime.
“Joe was great with our dog Junior, very attentive, very punctual, we could tell our dog Junior really liked spending time with him. We will definitely be using him the next time we need a sitter. We couldnt have been happier and more at ease. He was great!!”


“Great experience with Allegra. She took excellent care of my pups and kept the house spotless. The dogs were in such a good mood when I returned, which tells me everything I need to know. Will definitely book again!”

“Karina was absolutely amazing. She gave us regular updates and spoiled our dogs more than we do. She took care of all of their medical issues. We will definitely ask Karina to watch our dogs again.”

“Becca is a very responsible, trusting, kind caregiver. She took care of our two dogs for 8 days in our home and we returned to very well cared for happy dogs and a very well cared for home. We have always boarded our dogs and this was our first time using a in-home service. We couldn’t have had a better experience. I’ve already asked Becca if she is available for two more of our upcoming trips this year. 5 stars”

“Great pet sitter!! Sent daily updates with pics, awesome communication and my pets were quick to adapt to Gabrielle. We will be sure to keep requesting her services. She even watered our plants while we were away.”

“Aury did a great job taking care of our dog and our home. She sent photos multiple times a day and I could tell the dog was very well cared for. Our house was spotless upon returning home.”

About: I have had Pers my whole life, and I am a very well - versed person when it comes to dogs. I constantly watch people’s dogs / walk them when needed. Especially during summertimes. I am good with taking care of older dogs and walking at their pace. I am currently home from school for the summertime, I am taking classes in the meantime but I love to spend time with nature. Dogsitting fits into my schedule because I like to get up early and take care of my priorities and I count animals as one of them I value pets the same way, if not more, to other people. I see pets as another me, and I wouldn’t want anything to happen to them because i set such a high value for them. I think pets are one of the best things in our lives, and I wouldn’t want anything to harm that.

“Hope house sat and watched my dog while I was out of town for 6 nights. She was punctual, quick to respond, and sent daily updates (and also she was very friendly). Hope left my house as clean as when she arrived, and my dog was very happy with all of the attention and exercise she received. I would recommend Hope for house sitting in the future and will be happy to have her watch Kaya again!”
“Alex worked with our one dog who was nervous around him at first. He spent a lot of time at our house with our two dogs while we were on vacation. When we came back our dogs were tired and happy.”

“We would re-book Jillina without hesitation. She is a high integrity, super responsible pet sitter who will make it a priority to comfort and care for your pets. She truly bonded with our felines (2 mature Siberian cats). Her attention to our details, which we clearly outlined, were kept without compromise. We graced her with a lot of latitude in our home which she treated with great respect and did not in any way take advantage of. Our cats will miss her! Jillian personifies the ideal pet sitter.”

About: I've grown up with dogs my entire life and have often been one of their primary caretakers. I have cared for dogs from puppy ages all the way to age 19! I have a flexible schedule and am available on both weekdays and weekends. As a college student home for the summer, I have plenty of time to give your pets attention, walks, playtime, and care throughout the day! I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable. I’m very patient, attentive, and reliable, and I will always follow your pet’s routine and any special instructions carefully.
“Jennifer stayed in my home and took care of my Shar-pei Chuffy. This is the first time I've used a service to take care of my dog. She was totally reliable and kept me updated with texts and photos. She won over my standoffish boy and he fell completely in love with her. I would recommend her to anyone.”

About: I provide attentive, high-quality care tailored to each dog’s needs. I’m experienced with structured routines, leash handling, and reading dog behavior to ensure a safe and positive environment. Whether your dog needs exercise, structure, or just extra affection, I deliver dependable, top-tier care every time. My schedule is currently flexible as I am in between work allowing me to be available morning-evenings. Whether you’re looking for a morning walk or running late from work I can be there. I try to keep things as normal as possible for your dog while you’re gone. I follow your routine, make sure they’re well-fed, walked, and getting plenty of attention. I’m also very respectful of your home and keep everything clean and in order.
“Maya did an outstanding job for us. She accepted a last minute request, which included a 6-day stay at our home while we were out of town on vacation. She connected very well with our 72 pound medium Bernedoodle, giving him lots of attention and care. Everything went smoothly and she remained focused and supportive to the end, even when our return flight was delayed by 3 hours. Thanks again Maya.”

“Ida has been my pet sitter on three separate occasions. She sends pictures and comments daily. I come home to well taken care of and content kitties. I would happily hire her again.”

“Great experience with Justin. He took excellent care of my pups and kept the house clean while I was gone. The dogs were in such a good mood when I returned, which tells me everything I need to know. Will definitely book again!”

Hawthorn Woods pet parents share their Rover experiences
This was our first time using Rover and we could not have been more lucky to find Hailey! Hailey is very responsive, provided clear communication, and many awesome updates, including pictures and videos, while we were out of town. Our dog is 13 with many health issues so we are very hesitant to leave him with anyone other than family, but as soon as we met Hailey there was an immediate sense of comfort and relief knowing he was going to be in great hands in the comfort of his own home. We cannot say enough positive things about our experience and we will definitely be using Hailey's services in the future!

Maddie was just what our family needed. She is responsible and a good communicator- our two Goldens really felt relaxed around her and she gave them really good care. Maddie even got our one storm-phobic dog through two Thunderstorms and they had all their needs met. We felt completely at ease being out of town and leaving Maddie in charge.

Brandon was absolutely incredible. From the moment he arrived, it was clear he has a natural connection with dogs—Luna and Rosie were completely at ease with him in a way we rarely see with others. It honestly felt like having a true dog whisperer in our home. He was punctual, professional, and carried himself with a calm confidence that made the entire experience effortless. Knowing how our dogs typically react to new people, this level of comfort and trust meant everything to us. We would absolutely book Brandon again without hesitation, and we highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone reliable, intuitive, and genuinely gifted with animals.

This is my third time having Krystal take care of my senior kitty who has some medical issues and needs extra loving care. As always, Krystal gave my kitty exceptional care, going above and beyond! My kitty loves Krystal! And she cleaned my house, it was cleaner than I left it! Krystal, I can’t say thank you enough, especially stepping in last minute!!
