“Stephanie was wonderful! She sent photos of Cricket’s food and water bowls each visit and kept her litter box clean. Although Cricket hid the entire time, I felt extremely comfortable trusting Stephanie with her. I will definitely book with Stephanie again :)”
“Kristin went above and beyond taking care of my cats medications while I was traveling. My parents were there as well but cannot manage the medications. They enjoyed Kristin’s company very much and couldn’t say enough nice things about her. She even contacted my vet with questions, which I really appreciated. Kristin stopped over to meet and discuss details before the trip which gave me a lot of peace of mind. She has a great way about her. I highly recommend Kristin.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs my entire life and truly treat every dog as if they were my own. I’ve raised and trained my Akita Inu from puppyhood and lovingly cared for my Jack Russell through their senior years. I’m comfortable with puppies, energetic dogs, and seniors, and I focus on calm, patient care that helps dogs feel safe, relaxed, and happy while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily life because I’m free all day, every day. This allows me to give pets my full attention without rushing or juggling other commitments. I’m able to follow your dog’s normal routine closely, whether that means regular walks, playtime, feeding schedules, training reinforcement, or quiet companionship. Because my schedule is flexible, I can easily adjust to puppies who need more frequent care, senior dogs who move at a slower pace, or pets who simply enjoy company throughout the day. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping everything familiar and stress-free. I follow your instructions closely, maintain your pet’s routine, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. This includes feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, medication if needed, and lots of attention and reassurance. For dog walks in my neighborhood or yours, I use calm, confident handling and always prioritize safety. Walks are structured but enjoyable, tailored to your dog’s energy level, age, and comfort. I reinforce good leash manners, stay aware of surroundings, and make sure each walk is both stimulating and relaxing for your dog.
“Megan has helped us twice now to check in on our kitties while we’ve been out of town. She has excellent communication and really takes genuine care to make sure our cats are doing well. Highly recommended! :-)”
“Lauren was awesome! She sent me a lot photos and detail messages of each visit. I definitely recommend her and I will contact her again if I need someone to take care of my cats!”
“Meghan was great! She took care of our little Rosie, who I am sure missed us, with love and care. This was our first time using Rover. I would definitely use them again, and would recommend Meghan.”
“Ashley was the first Rover sitter we used, and we are so happy with the service she provided. She gave us detailed notes about each visit. She sent pics of each cat every day, so I knew they were ok. She brought in the mail and took out the garbage. I would definitely hire her again.”
“Melanie did a great job with our cat, Cheddar! She was also amazingly communicative, sent tons of adorable photos, and was very thorough in her descriptions of care after each visit. I felt very safe knowing our boy was in such good hands while we were away for the weekend. I would absolutely love to have her cat-sit again in the future!”
“Amanda was the very best! This was our first time needing to provide care for our fur babies that were outside our family and friends circle. Amanda took extra care of our senior chihuahua to ensure she would eat her meals. We found the perfect pet sitter for future needs. Would highly recommend!”
“Sophie was an excellent cat sitter. She checked in daily with photos and my April looked very happy. She followed up on any questions and communication was very professional. I would highly recommend her.”
“Cameron went above and beyond for our little Stewart. She always sent us lots of photos and we could tell he really enjoyed the attention while we were away. This was our first time using Rover and now we’re wondering why we didn’t use this service earlier. We will definitely be booking Cameron if/when we leave town again.”
“Sarah was great. She was prompt and responsible, gave my dogs their medicine, took them on good walks, and provided comforting updates and photos. It’s the first time I didn’t have to worry while away from my pets! She even fed our goldfish. :) Thanks, Sarah!”
About: My natural patience and lifelong love for dogs allow me to quickly build a bond of trust with any pet I watch. I’m not just there to provide snuggles and food and walks; I’m there to give them genuine companionship and ensure they feel secure and cherished in our home. I work from home and spend most days at home working. I love having a "desk buddy" and a dog walk is a great way to break up the day, Your pup will have constant supervision! I have a large yard that is fenced in. I love to take frequent walks to burn off that excess energy. I have multiple dog beds, cozy blankets, and plenty of toys!
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and can’t imagine a home without them! I currently have an 8-year-old pug who’s a beloved member of the family. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs of all ages—from playful puppies to senior dogs needing extra patience and gentle care. I understand how important it is to give each dog the attention, love, and routine they’re used to, and I treat every pup like one of my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I truly enjoy incorporating dogs into my everyday life. I love going on long walks and having a furry companion by my side, whether we're exploring the neighborhood or just relaxing on the couch for some snuggles. I’m currently working part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give dogs the attention, exercise, and care they deserve throughout the day. I strive to create a home environment that is safe, comfortable, and stress-free for dogs. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or a client’s, I make sure they feel secure, loved, and part of the family. I also place a strong emphasis on healthy, nutritious eating and always follow the pet parent’s guidance when it comes to diet and feeding routines. Every dog has unique needs, and I do my best to meet them with kindness, attention, and consistency.
About: I’ve been around dogs for years and have always had a natural connection with them. Friends and family often joke that I’m a “dog whisperer” because dogs tend to warm up to me quickly and feel comfortable right away. I’ve also been living with my girlfriend’s dog for over 2 years, helping with daily care, routines, and building trust... to the point where the dog now chooses to sleep with me. I’m calm, patient, and attentive, and I make sure every dog feels safe, relaxed, and cared for. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I treat every dog like they’re my own. I’m also happy to follow any specific routines or instructions you have. I have a flexible daily routine that allows me to be available throughout the day for check ins, walks, and quality time with your pet. I’m able to stop by during typical work hours as well as mornings, evenings, and weekends. I make pet care a priority and ensure your dog gets consistent attention, exercise, and care throughout the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I carefully follow all instructions, including feeding schedules, walks, and any specific routines your pet is used to. I’m attentive and make sure your home and your pet stay safe and secure at all times. I also provide regular updates so you can feel confident everything is going smoothly while you’re away.
About: Tell your dog (and cat) I said hi! I have always been a pet person and adore taking care of fuzzy ones. An avid adventurer, my pup and I log as many miles in as many places as we can on a daily basis. Safety is my number one priority when I’m out with dogs, especially after dark. On a walk, I’ll have a glowing safety vest on myself with an extra glow collar and hi-vis leash for your pet to use. Growing up, my family bred dogs and I have always been involved in their care. I also had a special needs cat for 13 wonderful years and will always have a soft spot seniors. Currently, I have the flexibility to accommodate almost all scheduling needs. My pup and I head to KLM dog park every day around 8:15 for a 2-3 mile play session and out for another 2-3 mile walk around Hinsdale in the late evening. Pets have always been my children and I will treat yours like my own. I love funny or silly routines and understand that each pet has its own unique needs and personality.
Hinsdale dog parents share their Rover experiences
Evan – A Truly Exceptional Pet Sitter Evan is the best pet sitter I’ve ever worked with. I’ve had many pet sitters and boarding places. She’s been the best & feel the safest leaving my fur babies in her care! Her type of attentiveness and care is rare. She’s taken care of my elderly dog who had medical issues and cat twice now while I was away on vacation, and every time they see her, they get excited. They don’t trust just anyone and neither do I but Evan has earned that trust completely. My dog has a history of abuse and he trusts her completely because she is so gentle with him. Every visit is thoughtful and thorough. She sends multiple pictures and detailed updates about everything: meals, water breaks, potty time, and cuddles. I always looked forward reading the drop-ins. She’s always early, stays the full time, and brings a warm, friendly energy that both pets and me. Before initially hiring her, I virtually interviewed three other Pet Sitter’s and I felt like she was the best out of all of them in the area. I’m thankful I found her. Evan is kind, and reliable! She’s helped with clean up with my cat, when my dog had missed his puppy pad, and did trash removal. I feel completely at ease leaving my pets in her care, and I’ll absolutely continue to use her services. Highly recommend Evan to anyone who wants peace of mind and happy pets! I do admit I have high standards and she naturally meets them.
Arianna was awesome! We were in need of a dog sitter for our two dogs after a last minute cancelation. We were so luck to have found her. She was punctual, professional and very kind. She met us and our dogs beforehand which put us at ease. When stopping by for the drop in she provided us with pictures and updates letting us know how everything was going. If we are in need of a sitter again, we hope to use Arianna. We definitely recommend her!
