“Super sweet to help out super last minute as we got stuck 10 hours away. Our poor babies had pooped inside and she picked it all up so we wouldn’t come back to a total mess. She was also amazing with our GSD who can be shy/timid. We will definitely use her again!!”
“Deidre was great at communicating and taking photos for me! She even brought in the mail for me! First time using rover and she made it easy for me!!”
“Thank you Alexandra!! 10/10 recommend, she made me feel so at ease using Rover for the first time. She came for a meet and greet before the visit, and sent an awesome update afterwards. Great experience 😊”
“Nathan came through at the last minute for us…. Everything has been great. Nathan has kept me updated on how my dog Bear did outside the normal report. I’m very happy with the job Nathan is doing and hope he stays with us.”
About: I've had pets for ages, cats & dogs. Right now I don't have any, home is lacking! I have a special heart for smaller dogs! Right now, I'm working from home part time. So am pretty flexible watching your pet. My preference is to have your pet here in my home. I have a large fenced in back yard, dogs seem to love roaming in it! I prefer to crate at night and have always crated my dog when leaving home. I find dogs seem more secure when crated.
“Absolutely amazing! I couldn’t recommend Cheyenne more. She’s caring thoughtful and has amazing attention to detail. My one baby cat was more social with her than I’m used to seeing with others! I absolutely plan on booking with her again! Thank you again Cheyenne!!”
About: Hello, My name is Mei, I am a nurse. My husband Mitchell is a software developer. My husband works from home and I only work 2 days a week in a hospital. We have two children, Leon and Lily. We have been dog sitting since 2014. We also have three dogs Sasa, Pawpaw, and Loot. We adopted Loot on our vacation in Arizona in 2022. Our dogs are well socialized with other dogs. They will start playing with new friends in no time! We have a BIG fenced yard and lots of dog toys! We have experience taking care of senior dogs on multiple daily medications and also little puppies. So just bring your fur babies to our house, and I guarantee they will have LOTS of fun and attention! My husband works from home. I work 2 days a week in a hospital. There will be somebody home throughout the week to watch the dogs. We have a fenced yard and we also put chicken wires all around it to make sure it is completely safe for the dogs. We make sure that dogs have potty break at least every 2 hours. My husband's office is in the walkout basement. He keeps the dogs around him in the basement when he is working.
“Nicole was amazing!! Our son was getting married so we needed someone to check in, they had a full water bowl when we got back late at night and it all went off without any issues!! Nicole is a keeper!!”
“Delaney was great with my dog, she made sure to meet him before letting him out for the days I needed help, which I really appreciated. She was great with communication and with my dog. I am thankful and definitely recommend!”
About: I have taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember. Family, friends and neighbors have trusted me to take great care of their fur babies and I have always loved doing so! I have taken care of dogs from all ages such as puppies to senior dogs and I also don’t mind on the size of your dog as I have cared for dogs of all sizes. I currently work full time mostly night shifts so my obscure schedule will allow to me to do late night or early morning pet sitting ! I can always try to accommodate to some day sitting. I can easily learn feeding and walking schedules. I have experience giving vitamins/medications. If your fur baby needs any special care I am happy to help.
“Morgan did a great job caring for Mr. Thick Whiskers. She provided helpful daily updates and found a new hiding spot for his food after it became apparent that we have an acrobat cat. I would highly recommend her.”
“Maia and Brent did a fabulous job taking care of our 2 boys (ie. our cats) while our regular pet sitter was out of town. We appreciated the flexibility of booking last minute for a holiday week. She was very professional and showed great knowledge when we introduced her to our dog (who we were taking with us on our trip). We won’t hesitate to leave all of them with her in the future. She sent us photos with updates at each check-in and even hunted down a missing package in our mailbox to bring it inside for us.”
“Maddy is a great sitter! She stopped by my apartment and looked after my cat for a little over two weeks while I was away. She is very responsive and accommodating. I would highly recommend her!”
“What can I say...Catherine is a jewel!! She took such good care of our Luna and Luna loved her. I highly recommend Catherine when looking for a great sitter for your furry family members. We will definitely call Catherine again!”
About: Aside from having dogs growing up, I am a mom to two dogs, raised from puppies to 13 & 9 respectively. I'm fortunate enough to bring my dogs to work, but I understand the guilt of leaving them for long periods. Let me help you on the days during the week when I work from home! Feedings, long walks, play time, etc. I do have some availability on weekends as well. Let's meet up & see if there's a match! I know how important it is to feel your loved ones are in good hands. I work from home on Mondays & Fridays, so availability to drop in multiple times is high! Limited availability on weekends, but it is also an option. I prefer using my hands-free leash with a shock-absorbing bungee leash, especially with dogs over 50 lbs. It's safer for both your dog & me :)
“My dogs can be a lil on the hyper side and she handled them so well! She was very nice and took great care of my doggos. I would definitely ask Abigail to care for them again in the future.”
About: I've worked at a few different clinics and shelters throughout the years. I foster for the local shelter and help friends with their fur babies! I work full time during the day, but work 5 min away from my home and I can go check on things throughout the day. I have a house with a fenced yard. I have a cat that sticks to herself mostly. I have foster dogs coming and going. I use gates to separate if needed
“Alex was great! I felt completely comfortable leaving my dogs with him. Knowing he had dog training experience gave me peace of mind while I was out of town. And he was great with both of them - even my high energy pup that doesn't always take to strangers. He took to Alex right away!”
About: We have been watching dogs for over 10 years now and have been the “go to” person for excellent dog care. We began when we were both 13 watching friend’s dogs while they left for extended vacations. We’ve watched dogs for 4 months while the family moved down south temporarily. We have also been trained with multiple sizes and breeds of dogs as well as many ages of dogs. We both were working as part time dog walker/sitters in Chicago while we attended school. I (Isaac) have owned three dogs in my lifetime. I have owned a golden retriever, a golden lab, and a golden retriever/lab mix. We both are available in the evenings and on Saturdays. Special skills would be keeping your dog entertained and loved. We take our job seriously and want to ensure the greatest safety when watching dogs! I only work at most 7 hours a day for 5 days a week. I have a wife who stays at home and is willing to take over when needed. She also has 10 years of experience with dogs and is a certified dog walker. I have a standard golden doodle which we keep on a fairly strict schedule. We make sure he gets tons of rest, make sure he eats what he needs to eat, and exercise the amount required for his breed and age. We always make sure that objects in the house that could potentially be of harm to him are kept away and if we do have to leave the house, he always is put inside his kennel after being let out to use the restroom. We always have save time throughout the day to train and time to play. I have a part time job on the side so if I cannot be there to care for the dogs during their set schedules my wife is also a certified rover sitter. Our main priority is to take care of our clients animals and make sure they stick with their schedules! We always make sure they are given proper amounts of food, water, and of course daily exercise and mind exercises. This of course varies on the dog, but we like to stick with our clients recommendations on how they like to keep their dogs healthy.
About: I’ve been taking care of my own dogs since I’ve been in middle school. I’m also a dog bather at the moment so I have plenty experience with dogs. I’m working part time right now and I love to work with animals. There will be lots of time for me to spend with your furry friends!! I have a fenced in yard and I have 2 other very friendly dogs that get to roam around. They get frequent bathes as well.

Hickman Mills South pet parents share their Rover experiences
I was able to book Catherine a second time for while I was away on a trip, and just like the first time she was incredibly attentive and thoughtful, and I felt much better about being away from my cat with her dropping in! She made sure to take photos when my cat came out of hiding and engaged with her with little treat hunts to give her something to do, which was definitely appreciated. My cat doesn’t make it easy but Catherine was very patient and gentle with her. I’d certainly rebook in the future!
