“We could not ask for a better first experience. Tanya took excellent care of our new puppy. From potty breaks to play times she was there with him sending updates and pics. We were able to enjoy our night knowing he was in good hands. Thanks again.”

“I’m so impress! Jackie is so responsive and always update the condition of my dog Bentley. She is very good with dogs. Thank you Jackie for taking care of my baby. I highly recommend her and will use her in the future.”


“Ruth has been very communicative & we could tell that she & her husband both care about the dogs she watches. Her home has a large dog run & Chase was returned to us stress free at pickup. I will be rebooking since we had such a good experience!”

“River loved her doggy day care stay with Brian. The meet and greet before was helpful and greatly appreciated as well. Would highly recommend Brian to take great care of your fur baby!”

“David was great with our pup Chase. He's usually very shy and slow to warm up to people. However he really took to David and Pinto super quickly. David shared pictures and videos of them playing and sleeping throughout the day. I would definitely recommend him for any dogsitting needs.”

“Sasha is great! I have an unpredictable work schedule that she was totally willing to accommodate. She has a great personality and is a good pack leader for the dogs. Her house is an inviting environment with a nice backyard for the pups to run around in.”

“Laura is absolutely amazing! She’s so friendly and welcoming, and my partner and I instantly felt comfortable leaving our dog with her. She invited us into her home, and our pup was immediately curious and happy to be there. Laura took the time to explain how she cares for dogs and kept us updated throughout the day, which we really appreciated. When we picked him up, he was tired and happy—a sure sign he had an awesome time! We can’t recommend Laura enough.”

“It was Sunny’s first time at a sitter’s place and she was super nervous when we got there. Jonathon was great with her and she came back as happy as can be. Definitely will keep using Jonathon’s services. And he let us book last minute. Thank you!”


“Arlene is great! Benny was so excited to return to her house. She went out of her way to make pickup easy - taking him to the park, where we were able to meet her. Great service and care.”

“1st impressions is everything. It was Friday and we needed a puppy sitter on Sunday for Kira. Our first time using Karina and she took our Kira with open arms and a smile. Taking care of Kira included not just feeding and potty breaks, but also socializing with her dogs and a couple of videos of play time. THATS LOVE! Highly recommend her for puppy/dog parents who want a pleasant experience for that special member in the family. When we took Kira home, she was so exhausted from the fun she had with the other dogs, she was asleep for the rest of the night.”

“Finley is super responsive. We booked a last minute daycare date, and Finley was great with reaching out with any questions. We also received videos and pics which is much appreciated! Thanks Finley!”

“Andrea and Jerome are great! They are easy to work with, and receptive to any requests. We can tell Cody enjoys his time with them, since it’s difficult to get him to leave! We would definitely book again.”

About: Caring for dogs is something I’ve enjoyed doing for as long as I can remember. I grew up around animals in Puerto Rico and earned a Bachelor’s degree in Animal Science with a companion animals care certificate, giving me both hands-on experience and formal knowledge in companion animal care. I offer boarding, house sitting, drop-in visits, dog walking, and doggy day care for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or prefers a slower pace, I tailor my care to fit their needs and routine. I’m also comfortable with senior dog care, medications, and basic training reinforcement. Since I work from home full-time, pets receive plenty of supervision, attention, and companionship throughout the day. My goal is always to make dogs feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while giving owners peace of mind while they’re away. I also live with My best friend and roommate, Erica, who is also trained and able to care for your pup. So, if you board with us, you can rest assure your pet will have the best care 24/7! I work from home full-time, so pet care naturally fits into my daily routine. I’m home with the pet throughout the day and can provide consistent supervision, attention, walks, feeding, and playtime. Since I live close to Portage Park, I’m also able to give dogs plenty of physical exercise and mental stimulation through walks, outdoor time, and their favorite games. Whether that’s fetch, tug-of-war, or just exploring the park, my top priority is to make them happy. On the rare occasions I do step out, my roommate is home and helps ensure your pet is never left alone. In caring for pets, my approach is rooted in both professionalism and personalized attention. Depending on the service offered, the care provided may vary. However, one constant remains: meticulous adherence to instructions and a commitment to the well-being of every furry friend entrusted to my care. I take a lot of pride in my ability to follow instructions diligently, ensuring that your pet receives tailored care according to your explicit preferences. Whether it's feeding schedules, medication administration, or specific exercise routines, I prioritize clear communication and meticulous execution. Your pet's comfort, safety, and happiness are my utmost priorities.
About: What truly sets us apart is the genuine love and attention we give every pet, treating them as if they were our own. Caring for animals has been part of my life since childhood, from dogs and cats to rabbits. Over the years, neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and (of course) snuggle their pets, knowing they’d be cared for with patience and kindness. Because I work from home, your pet is never alone. They receive constant companionship, supervision, and plenty of affection throughout the day. I’m attentive and experienced with pets of all ages, from energetic puppies who need play and structure to senior pets who deserve extra comfort, gentleness, and care. For added peace of mind and convenience, we’re located just minutes from O’Hare Airport with easy access to the Metra train, making drop-off and pick-up simple for frequent travelers and busy pet parents alike. Whether you’re heading out of town or just need dependable care close to home, your pet will be safe, loved, and well looked after here. Since I work from home, your pet will have plenty of company, attention, and care throughout the day, they’ll never feel lonely here! I have a fenced in yard with cameras and we will always monitor while pets are outside. I am a lifelong animal lovers and have cared for pets my entire life, including dogs, cats, and even rabbits. While I don’t currently have pets of my own, I’d love to open my home and heart to your fur baby and treat them like part of the family.
About: I can relate to different animals because when I was little I was surrounded by animals and loved taking care of them. and I am looking forward to your pet I was forced to move to another country because of the war and really missed taking care of animals. So I decided this was a good opportunity for me. I devote all my free time to animals and play with them. And I go for walks with them. I also take great responsibility for them.
“My shy, anxious beagle had a blast at Valerie’s, didn’t want to come home! I appreciated Valerie’s patience, flexibility, and ability to be both laidback with my pup while also giving her space to indulge her zoomies. Plus, we got lots of pics throughout the day. Thanks for a wonderful stay, will use again!”

Jefferson Park dog parents share their Rover experiences
Nelia took incredible care of Chester! She was so responsive and kept me updated throughout his stay with her. She created a playful environment and took him on several long walks in her beautiful neighborhood. She was truly excited to take care of him. He can't wait to stay with Nelia again. I know your dog will love her too!

Lauriann and Sven were so accommodating and supportive of our pup’s needs for doggy day care. They were responsive and communicative and followed our instructions and checked in and sent pics. So thankful for their gracious and loving care for our dog. Would definitely book with them again!

Mello had a great time playing with his friend Ollie. He was timid at first but was well cared-for and got multiple walks plus plenty of belly rubs. I got pictures and updates during the day that reassured me he was adapting well. I am happy to take him back again!

David hosted our Toki for last minute daycare so we can focus on family time during the holidays. He was very accommodating and my dog told me he had a wonderful time with him and Pinto. I'm grateful for him and looking forward to using his services again whenever I'm in town.

Tango seemed to have really enjoyed the day with Craig and his dogs. I was worried because he's been a little reluctant to be around some dogs lately, but he was so excited when I dropped him off with Craig and their pups, and was happy when I picked him up. Craig took him for a long walk and he explored Craig and Ashley's lovely backyard. He went to bed as soon as he came home (which is so nice for me!). Craig included a number of photos in Tango's report card - he looked very content. We'll definitely use Craig and Asley again for day care and hopefully boarding the future!
