“Simply the best! This is our first time leaving our Bruno with a dog sitter and Christina made it so comforting and easy for us. Great communication and her love of animals is evident by her care. 5+ 🐾”

“Michelle and family took great care of Penny- even coming up with new tasty food items for my picky girl. I really appreciate how well she is taken care of which allows me to have peace of mind while away”

“It was the first time using this site. I have never left Izzy with anyone before, but I was going away for a long weekend. I was so nervous to leave her and she cried when I dropped her off, but I knew she’d get over it because there were other dogs there and she loves to play. Desiree was awesome. Send pictures every day and videos which made me feel ease on my vacation. I would definitely recommend her. She has a wonderful set up and is wonderful with the dogs that she cares for. I will be calling her again when I go away.”

“Janet was great with my dog Guts! Took good care of him and she was very flexible and accommodating with pick up and drop off times. I will definitely be bringing Guts back to her should I need care for him in the future.”

“I recently had a 2½‑week vacation planned and was nervous about leaving my anxious dog, Teddy, for the first time. Angelina was incredibly accommodating and thoughtful from the very beginning. We arranged a couple of day visits and a few overnight stays ahead of my trip so Teddy could slowly adjust to her home and routine. Angelina was wonderfully attentive to Teddy’s needs, especially with feeding—he’s a picky eater, and she went the extra mile to make sure he was comfortable and eating well. By the third visit, Teddy was running happily to her door, tail wagging, and that’s when I knew I had found the perfect person to care for him. While I was away, she sent daily updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. Teddy had a blast playing with the other dogs, and I can tell he truly misses them! I highly recommend Angelina to anyone looking for a caring, patient, and reliable sitter. She made a stressful situation feel easy, and Teddy absolutely adored her. 💙🐶💙”

“Great communication. Very friendly and wonderful with the pets (cat and dog). Felt very comfortable they were well taken care of during our week long vacation.”

“Barbara was truly amazing. I cannot say enough good things about our experience with her. She cared for my two puppies — a high-energy 4-month-old German Shepherd and a spirited 7-month-old Yorkie — for the weekend, and she handled them both with so much grace, patience, and genuine love. From the moment we met her, I could tell my dogs were instantly comfortable. The way they interacted with her said everything — she truly loves dogs, and dogs adore her right back. Her communication was excellent throughout the entire stay, and I always felt confident they were in the very best hands. We previously had a not-so-positive Rover experience where the dogs came back timid and not themselves, so we were understandably nervous trying again. Barbara completely changed that. My pups were happy, energetic, and their normal selves when we picked them up — which told me they were not only well cared for, but genuinely enjoyed their time with her. I’m so grateful we found Barbara. She exceeded every expectation and gave us such peace of mind. We will absolutely be booking with her again! Highly, highly recommend!”

“Thank you Tabitha! Rocco had the BEST sleepover. Lots of play time, lots of outside time, and tons of love. Tabitha even made Rocco an Easter basket with doggie treats. She was super patient with him when he was nervous on night one and kept me well informed over the weekend with tons of pictures and updates. He came home happy, clean and we are so grateful for her love.”

“5 stars all around! She kept me updated about my baby and definitely worked with my schedule. I appreciated her very much. I will be booking with her more often.”

“Amy was AMAZING!!!!!! My dog was able to run outside, go on walks and car rides, he cuddled up on the couch. Amy gave me updates with pictures and videos, my family loved seeing how his vacation was going and we looked forward to seeing the friends he made”

About: I’m a lifelong dog lover with years of experience caring for dogs for friends, family, and neighbors. What sets me apart is the level of care, patience, and attention I give every dog as if they were my own. I understand that every dog has a different personality, comfort level, and routine, and I take the time to make them feel safe, relaxed, and loved while their owners are away. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or calm and cuddly, I adapt to their needs and make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and companionship. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m dependable, attentive, communicative, and genuinely enjoy being around dogs. I’m comfortable following feeding schedules, walks, routines, administering basic medications if needed, and providing updates/photos so you feel at ease while away. My goal is to create a warm, low-stress environment where your dog feels comfortable, cared for, and happy — not just watched. It would truly be an honor to care for your dog and give them the same love and attention every pet deserves. Daily and evening care including walks, feedings, playmate, bath time and bed time with any other activities including the dog park when availabe based on weathe. Pets are free to roam while I am home and crated when I need to run errands. They are treated like the rest of the family.
“Very nice experience with Jaqueline, she was very attentive to jax, kept us in the loop as to how jax was doing. her home was very clean and nice backyard for the dogs to play around.”

“Heather ended up taking care of Dempsey an extra day after our flight back to Chicago was cancelled. She was quick to respond and helped make a stressful situation a little easier to manage. She took great care of Demps while we were out of town. Thank you!!”

“We are so happy we found someone to care for our senior dog during our vacation. Sylvia cared for our dog well and sent photos daily. They have a great set up and my dog really enjoyed her beautiful backyard. Would definitely recommend to anyone!”

“Dara gave me peace of mind while taking care of my pup. She gave me great updates, was very responsive whenever I reached out, and gave my pup the care and attention she needed when she was missing us.”

“Sarah was excellent! She sent us photos and updates of our dog Gus while we were out of the country for two weeks. She was understanding and able to care for our senior dog with special needs. Would highly recommend!”


“Cary is amazing. I was updated daily with pictures and my dogs look so happy ! I was a nervous wreck leaving them because this is the first time I’ve boarded them. But that fear is gone and I will definitely be booking again during my next getaway.”
Hickory Hills pet parents share their Rover experiences
Olivia kept my baby Leah for the weekend while I went out of town, and I was honestly nervous because anyone who knows me knows how I feel about my baby. But Olivia was amazing. She sent tons of pictures and updates the whole time, which really helped me relax. She even gave Leah extra treats and sent her home with some too. I ended up needing to extend my trip unexpectedly, and Olivia was super understanding and flexible about it. That meant a lot to me. Leah was clearly well taken care of and loved while she was there. Olivia will forever be my baby’s home whenever I’m away. I’m so grateful I found her!

This is my 7 year old, Shih Tzu’s 3rd time with Sarai & she loves it over there. She’s always ready & available with a positive, welcoming attitude to Jazz & helps her feel comfortable Sarai’s communication/updates can sometime be a little off, but she eventually gets back to me in 24 hours or less. Jazz always comes back happy & healthy.
