“Kent was an amazing sitter. He is very communicative, and showed great care for our pup. He is calm and patient, and has a wonderful demeanor. It is no wonder he formed a great bond with her. We would very much recommend him to anyone. Thank you Kent!”
About: I've had cats and dogs since childhood, so I have a life-long experience with dogs of different sizes and breads, German shepherd, Husky, Chihuahua, at this moment I have a wonderful maltipoo kind of bread. I’m currently not employed and can take care of our small friends full time. Usually waking up at 7:30 and going to bad at 10:30 if the schedule for walking different I can fit it into mine and make adjustments. I live in apartments on 1-st floor, but don't have a fenced yard. Right by my building locates a good walking zone for dogs, the area is treated for ticks.
“Great caregiver! Shweta communicates well, keeps me up-to-date, and accommodates any special needs. Have used her for both my dogs, Ace & Izzy, and she is wonderful! Highly recommend!”
“Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of Saga. I appreciated all the pictures you shared, it let me know that she was really enjoying herself! It is truly a comfort having such wonderful caretakers available when I have had to be out of town.”

About: As a long time animal owner and lover, I'll always take care of your pet like they're my own. It's so important to me that you feel safe when you leave your fur baby in somebody else's care. I also have lots of experience with dog breeds with varying behavioral issues - from terrified chihuahuas to leash reactive german shepherds, horses, fish, and tons of lil guys inbetween. Whether it’s a drop in, walk, or overnight boarding, We’ll work together to make sure your pets needs are 110% met. 🫶🏻 I work from home on a decently flexible schedule so nobody is getting left alone for hours. We also have a gorgeous fenced-in backyard for roaming and play and are close to trails so dogs can go to the forest preserve with us if they'd like for extra nature time. 🌲 I currently work completely remote so my schedule is highly flexible and I’m happy to accommodate your needs or come keep some company for a while. During drop ins, I'm always happy to refill water bowls, feed, walk, play, cuddle, and whatever is needed to make sure your pet stays stimulated and has some trusted company while you're away.
“Brian was very accommodating, taking care of my dog for two weeks on short notice. He provided updates and photos that gave me piece of mind. Plus, my dog was able to socialize with his dog, which was a bonus! His rates were reasonable; he answered my texts and questions in a timely manner. Overall very happy, and I will check back with him, should we need help with boarding our dog in the future. Thank you Brian!”
“Asked her to watch my baby on a short notice and she didn’t hesitate to accept. She took care of her like it was her own and sent tons of pictures. Would definitely have her as my dog sitter again!”
“Being new to Rover.com, I really didn't know what to expect. I am so happy that I chose Mary B. to care for my dog while I was away. She suggested a meet & greet so I could see where Finn would be staying. She has a beautiful, spacious yard and friendly dogs of her own that kept my dog entertained and happy during his stay. Each day, Mary sent a cute photo or short video with a brief message to update me on how things were going. I will definitely book with Mary B. again!”
“Luciana took very good care of our chihuahua. Luciana is very professional and friendly. She listened to our instructions very carefully and adhered to it. She took the dog out multiple times and fed him on time as requested. She gave very frequent updates and posted photos and videos of the dog having a happy time at her home. Overall a great experience and I would definitely recommend her and be a repeat customer as well”
“Gracie had a wonderful time. She was very, very well taken care of. I had pictures at least twice a day that made me feel that she was so safe. She seemed happy and having a very good time and very comfortable. I will not hesitate to use Susan again if I need Gracie to be watched, they’re very nice people. I feel that I have also made new friends for life.”
“Choosing Carolyn to watch our fur babies was excellent choice. One of our dogs was a rescue so she gets anxious around new surroundings. It didn't take long for Bella to warm up to her. Our other one is a senior dog and Carolyn made sure to accommodate him too. They went on walks and was playful. Carolyn sent me numerous pics throughout the afternoon and evening so I felt really comfortable leaving our pups with her. She did a great job with them and I'm so glad we found such a wonderful sitter. We will definitely use Carolyn again!”
“We used Rover for the first time and booked with Melody. She was great with Dunder during our meet and greet but I was still super nervous to leave him over our Christmas break. She provided daily updates, pictures, and was super responsive when I would check in on him. Recommend her if you need pet sitter.”

“We had a great experience with Meghan! Freddy was happy, well cared for, and clearly received lots of attention while we were away. Communication was excellent throughout the stay, and we really appreciated the updates and photos. We felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands and would happily book again.”
“One word for Melissa….Amazing. Now a few more words why. Melissa took such perfect care of our cat Toewz. He was so happy and she kept us in the loop while out of the country with so many adorable pics. Melissa is a sweetheart, caring, smart and professional. She knows how and without a doubt love your pet the way they deserve. She also has a wonderful and large home which is always a bonus. Thanks Melissa. Toewz or our dog Ozzy will see you again soon enough Dave”

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
