“Beth was wonderful. She is so sweet with my little cat and figured out right away how she likes to be pet. I really appreciated her sending pics and letting me know everything was ok. She went above and beyond in her care while I was gone and she is always very punctual and responsible. I’m very glad to have found Beth!!”
“Lindsey always does a great job taking care of our cat! She is very communicative and punctual, and she even makes sure that our cat doesn't get into too much mischief while we are out. We would highly recommend her services.”
“Steve is wonderful!! He really went above and beyond for us. He was attentive and caring with my animals, on time, thorough and communicative. I felt so much peace of mind knowing that he was taking care of them. I will absolutely book him any time I need help with my pets. I can’t recommend him enough!!! Thank you Steve!”
“Christina is so good with our kitties! It helps lessen the guilt of leaving them when she is there. She has a way with them, and getting our shy ones to come out of hiding 💕”
“Tiffany was awesome!!! This is the first time leaving my cat for more than a night and I was so worried how he would do. Tiffany sent me photos everyday and let me know how he was doing. She asked about things she noticed might be a concern (which happened to be normal for my cat which is an older rescue), and was so thorough and thoughtful I didn’t have to worry about a thing! I would highly recommend Tiffany and I hope she’s available to take care of my cat again in the future. Thank you so much!”
“Elizabeth was wonderful! She was thoughtful and attentive, and both kitties seemed to warm up to her really quickly. She went out of her way to provide exceptional service, and I’d be happy to make use of her services again!”
About: I have been watching my neighbors dogs for the past 17 years. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and ages. Since I am young and active, I can take your dog on walks and provide plenty of exercise throughout the day. Additionally, I can provide overnight sitting and ensure your house looks occupied. I am more than happy to bring in your mail/packages, water your plants, adjust the blinds, turn on and off lights, bring garbage cans to the curb (and back) for trash pick up. I have a cat of my own named Oliver so I also have years of experience with cat care! I can come check on your feline friend and will feed, refresh water, play, and clean the litter box as needed. I am very free during the summer. During the week I can stop by anytime during the day, as well as provide overnight care. I am also free most weekends. I understand it is hard to leave your furry friend so I really do go out of my way to put pet owner's at ease. I will consistently provide updates and photos so you know you are in good hands.
About: I have experience dog walking and dog sitting, most importantly making pets feel comfortable and loved in their temporary new home! I have also fostered kittens until they were ready to be adopted! I am currently at home studying for my graduate school entrance exam, so I’ll have plenty of time to spend playing with your pup! I am available to dog sit any day of the week. I have no other pets at home so your pet will receive all my love and attention! I live in a quiet neighborhood perfect for walks.
About: I absolutely love animals! I have taken care of various sorts of pets including hamsters, dogs, cats, fishes and birds. I have been involved in animal rescue and foster work. I love taking care of them ❤️ I own a Persian cat and four fishes, I look after them like they are my own kids. I have plenty of experience when it comes to taking care of cats, dogs, birds, and fishes. Your pet will feel at home when staying with me, I will make sure to love them like my own and play with them and look after them sincerely.
About: I have had pets for a majority of my life. I have had cats previously and currently have a chocolate lab and german shepherd that I mainly take care of. I’m a student at Lake Forest College with some jobs on the side. Let me know what you need and I’m willing to work something out! I have a fenced in yard with a dog on a leash, so I understand the importance of keeping an eye while they are outside. I am also capable of crating.
“Victoria was great with all 3 of my dogs. It tends to be a circus wrangling all 3, but she did an awesome job. Victoria is attentive to detail and great at communicating. We will definitely be booking with her again!”
About: I am a college student living in East Harlem for the summer and near three great dog parks. I will provide 30-60 min walks with time in a park. Dogs enjoy a little time in parks with other dogs, so I try to make it happen as much as possible. Every walk comes with a complimentary treat and lots of love. I have over 10 years of dog care experience in all areas of pet ownership and hope to bring these skills to taking care of your pets! My goal is to make sure your dog has an enjoyable time away from you and to stick to any schedule you set forth for your dog. Hope I am given the chance to treat your dogs to a great walk! I currently work part-time, so I have a lot of time to share with your pet. I strive to make all pets comfortable, loved and well played with. I follow all rules given to the T. I will play any game while keeping them on schedule. I offer long dog walks. Comfortable sleeping spaces with optional cuddles for cats lol! I have a lot of space for zoonoses in my own home as well.
“Responsive. Personable. Conscientious. Easy to communicate with. Responsible. Caring. A true pet lover. It's such a pleasure to come home to happy cats! Thank you, Caroline!”
About: I grew up with animals and have always loved caring for them — mainly cats, but I can’t forget the gerbils, bunnies, reptiles, you name it! Although I’ve grown up with cats, I love dogs just as much and have spent the last 5-7 years walking and looking after dogs of all sizes for friends and family. As a babysitter, I know that pets aren’t just a part of the job — they are family! I truly enjoy spending time with animals, whether that involves long walks or some serious playtime (honestly, I think I might have more fun playing than they do). I’m well informed on pet care and safety, and I always prioritize their well-being and safety. You can count on me to be reliable, attentive, and treat your pets like my own. Caring for animals isn’t just a job—it’s truly my joy. I’m currently home from college for the summer. Having just finished a summer course, I have nothing but free time until September! I’m very flexible and happy to help where I’m needed, whether that may be scheduled in advance or on short notice. I am big on going on walks for exercise, so bringing your dog along with me is not only easy but preferable! I have a big backyard where your pet can play, but because I have two cats, I don’t take long dog stays at my home. I’m more than happy to care for your pets in your home and will always follow any instructions you provide me! I can crate your dog if needed, spend time outside for potty breaks (and clean up after!), play with them, and take them for as many walks as you (or your pet) want. I’m very experienced with house sitting through years of babysitting (most of my clients have dogs) and am very comfortable staying in your home for a few nights to keep your fur babies company. I’m a great rule follower, so let me know what it is you’d like from me and I’m happy to help you out! I’m very flexible, easy to work with, and happy to work with you to meet your pet’s unique needs.

Knollwood cat parents share their Rover experiences
Tiffany is the best. We had a trip planned for months and a few weeks before one of our kitties was diagnosed with glaucoma, requiring drops three times a day. Tiffany was able to get the drops in his eye for us while we were gone and when we got home there were very happy animals waiting to greet us. Kept their messes cleaned and left the sweetest note. Appreciate her so much she is just the best.
Angela was super friendly, communicative, and flexible to meet our timing needs to see our cat. She also was great with following directions for administering our cat's medications (she currently takes seizure medications and is not thrilled about taking one of them). We will definitely reach out to her again when we travel.
