“Patricia took amazing care of Zoey. She was great with sending us video and photo updates which gave us peace of mind. I highly recommend Patricia and look forward to having her watch Zoey again.”
“Eliza was great. Our dog is a senior and requires some extra attention. Eliza was great with her and sent us pics and texts to keep us in the loop on how she was doing.”
“Roberto and his family welcomed my dog to his family who are all dog lovers. He was well cared for and enjoyed his time with them. Would confidently recommend Roberto.”
“Our dogs were returned in good condition (though they each had gorilla tape embedded in their fur which they had managed to chew off of Michelle’s crate liners - sorry Michelle!). Michelle is an experienced sitter who has specific processes in place which she clearly communicates. The daily feedback messages and pics were timely and detailed which we appreciated. We would have our dogs stay with Michelle again.”
“This was the first time using Rover and Kasia was great. Our puppy came home happy and content. Kasia was quick with responses and also kept us updated while we were away so we felt comfortable that Aurora was in good hands. We will definitely leave Aurora with Kasia going forward! Thank you for all your love and care Kasia ♥️”
“Valentina is a gem and took very good care of Charlie for 5 days! She updated me daily with texts/photos, which was very appreciated. I would highly recommend her for dog sitting!!”

“Kimberly took great care with our small poodle while we went on an extended vacation. We received daily updates and photos. She came home happy and healthy. We highly recommend Kimberly!”
“Thomas is an amazing sitter, and communicating with him is very smooth. He sends me photos of my dog and keeps me updated on how he's doing. He was very patient waiting for me before I picked up Echo. I will continue to use him as a sitter in the future.”
“Leigh and Richard were absolutely amazing. They took such good care of our pup and treated her like their own. Our dog is super shy and attached to me and at the end of our trip, she didn’t even want to leave! I can’t recommend them enough, your dog will be in such good hands. We are happy we found our go-to sitter. Thank you so much Leigh and Richard!”
“A very loving family with lots of pet experience. They were able to teach my dog how to “drop” a ball after fetching. Before she would not want to give it up after fetching a toy. They also helped her learn how to get along with other dogs.”
“I was very worried about what to do with my dog when traveling. My dog is not great around strangers and gets scared easily. However, I am so glad I decided to go with Michelle as my dog sitter this past weekend. She provided multiple updates with pictures every day which was very comforting. I could tell she has a lot of experience caring for animals, as she was very adept in making my dog feel comfortable and knew what to do in various situations. I will definitely be booking with Michelle in the future, and I am confident she will care for my dog. If anyone has concerns about her abilities, please rest assured as she is very reliable!”
“Vicki was amazing! Marty went to her house for the day while we had my son’s first birthday party. She updated us with pictures throughout the day and fed him his dinner. Marty had a blast there and was able to play safely with other dogs. When it was time for pick up, she had everything packed up ready to go for us. She was extremely flexible and had great communication! The best rover experience we have had, will definitely be returning!”
“Tosha was an amazing dog sitter! She cared for my dog, Maggie, like her own, giving her so much love and attention. I could tell Maggie was happy and well taken care of when I got her back. Communication was great, and I felt completely at ease knowing Maggie was in such good hands. I highly recommend Tosha to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
About: I know how to make dogs comfortable and make them feel like they’re being taken care of well. Lots of treats they get from me I am free to watch dogs a lot during each day of the week. Any time of the day works for me as well to watch them I have a fenced in yard. I keep my basement closed so no dogs can go down there. Mostly on the main floor with me.
“Cecilia is incredibly nice and positive. Our dog warmed up to her quickly and soon enough he was hanging out in bed with her. Her home has a nice layout with places for our boy to hang out. She communicates really well and sent us pictures daily. She is also really flexible for our travel plans. Highly rated.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Hoffman Estates
This was a new booking for us and the first time we booked both boys. The boys really looked comfortable. Julie and Mark really seemed to go out of their way to ensure the dogs were taken care of and even accomodated my one dog's odd hang up about eating off a plate instead of a bowl. I appreciate that more than I can express. If they will have the boys back, we will book again.
This is our 2nd time leaving our Brownie with Allis. She is very attentive, professional yet playful and caring with our dog and also very responsive. From updates and pictures every day to quick messages back. We know he is in great hands when he is with her.
I have used a handful of sitters for boarding and Shelby was my favorite. I found her last minute and was so relieved to find someone I can leave my girls with that I felt completely comfortable with. she was completely flexible with my schedule with my flight being delayed and pushing my pickup time to very late. Lots of pictures and updates made me so happy.
