About: I have had animals my whole life. I raised a puppy from 6 weeks to adulthood and worked alongside a professional dog trainer with specialized techniques on walking side by side (no pulling), food aggression, and jumping. I also fostered sick kittens for a year learning about medication administration and finding the care necessary. I will love your animal as if my own and can’t wait to meet them! I am currently in college for Musical Theatre. I have a light schedule ready to take on a full time job with your pets. It will be very achievable to work out the best fit and schedule for both you and your pet. I will go based on your wants and needs. I love to go on long walks on trusted routes, continuing to work on training for their listening. I enjoy playing indoors and giving them loads of attention and company to make them feel loved and cared for as well as following their preexisting meal and health plans.
“Claire was fantastic! One of our dogs is reactive and needs medication & Claire was totally on it. She sent pictures and updates, and our girls seem soooo happy and calm. Can’t thank Claire enough!!”

“We are so lucky to have found Paige! Pearl immediately loved her. She sent ample photo updates and listened to our many asks. She was super flexible to work with and made it easy to leave for the weekend! She was respectful with our house and treated it as if it were her own responsibility. Highly recommend!”


“Sky took very good care of our dog Bisteca and our apartment. Bisteca is on the older side, takes a lot of meds, and it is very reactive, so he can be a handful. He was doing great when we came back from a 5-day trip, and the apartment was super tidy. Would definitely book again!”
“Connor is a consummate professional. I trust him for daily walks and in-home care for longer periods. He cares for my Eleanor as though she was his own dog, which is the highest compliment I can give.”


“Bryan has been an amazing sitter for my dog, Charlie. He clearly truly loves animals and keeps me updated with any changes and send lots of photos! Couldn’t recommend him more.”


“We absolutely love working with Mariah. We travel abroad frequently and can always trust the dogs are having fun and being loved on. The only problem with Mariah is she doesn’t have more availability (LoL). 10/10 recommend. She’s Shiba approved (and they are VERY judgy dogs 😆🦊)”


“Luisa was amazing! This was my first time leaving my puppy, and she did a great job providing updates, playing with my puppy, maintaining his schedule & came over before for a meet and greet. Super wonderful to work with.”

“Iwona is great with our dogs! She has house sat for us twice and taken such amazing care of both the dogs and the house. She loves on our dogs so well, they barely even notice that we are gone!”


“Pablo did an excellent job watching out 9 week old puppy. He was very knowledgeable about puppy safety and communicated with us regularly throughout the night. We really appreciated his professionalism and flexibility with our schedule. Thank you Pablo!”

About: I have always wanted a dog of my own but couldn’t have one for reasons outside of my control, making me the go-to sitter for friends and family! I love dogs of all breeds and sizes, and will follows instructions to a T. My work schedule allows a lot of flexibility for odd-hour or short-notice appointments. Happy to go for longer walks and extended play time. I’m working from home part-time as a research assistant, giving me tons of flexibility for odd-hour or short notice appointments. I can be an early riser or night owl as needed. I promise to have the utmost respect for your wishes, your pets, and your property. I will follow your instructions exactly, maybe giving an extra treat for great behavior after getting through difficult situations. I am committed to leaving no trace, ensuring things are left in as good or better condition than I found them. I don’t mind doing an extra favor for home care here and there upon request!
“Our pup was in good hands with Renee. We have an anxious dog who doesn't do well with boarding, so it was essential to find someone to stay with her in our home. Renee took good care of her and the house, and provided lots of updates for us so that we could enjoy vacation knowing all was well back home. I would recommend her without reservation.”

“Dominique was great at my place for the week! She sent regular updates, followed instructions I gave and ensured the place was clean prior to leaving. Nala was well taken care of!”

“Abi was kind, respondent, and stayed with my three kitties at my apartment. She took great care of them, and I know two of my kitties can be quite mischevious and needy. When I got back they were so chill and happy, so I know they had to love her. I definitely recommend Abi to watch your fur babies, they will be in great care and company”


“So happy to have found Audrey! I was worried about leaving my 3, since 2 are older (14 & 10) and not used to change in their routines. After reading Audrey’s bio, I hoped she would be a good fit. She came to meet my crew before we finalized our plans for her to stay at my house with my 3 dogs and 2 sugar gliders , to make sure this was a good fit. I felt comfortable and confident that I had made a good choice. She asked lots of questions about routines, quirks, habits, etc to make sure she understood what my fluffy kids need. She also asked if there was anything she needed to know about the house, since she’d be staying here. While we were gone, Audrey kept me updated with texts, pics, and videos to reassure me that all was well. I will definitely be having Audrey take care of my gang next time we need to go somewhere!”

“Victoria was a great fit for us! She came to meet our dog in advance and we went over all of Rusty’s quirks. She took notes and seem to follow all directions. When we returned after our trip our house was tidy and the dog seemed happy. We would definitely use her again!”

About: I’m a dogless dog lover, so I’m looking to have some company on my walks and in my apartment! I live in Bucktown near Holstein park and the 606, and absolutely adore time outdoors with furry friends. I will tire them out! I have an office job M-F from about 7:30 AM - 3 PM, but I’m available all day over the weekends if your dog needs frequent potty breaks! I live on a tree-lined street in Bucktown, near the 606, Holstein, and Churchill park. I don’t have any pets but absolutely welcome them into my apartment! I’m open to house sitting if we meet first.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Lake View
Ryan is the BEST. We were in a tight spot when our regular boarder’s (and our back-up boarder’s) vacation coincided with ours, so I took a deep breath and decided to trust Rover and Ryan’s excellent reviews. Could not have been happier. Our girl is very attached to us, but having met Ryan before our departure, was not at all stressed when we rolled suitcases out the door. Ryan sent daily updates and she was clearly just living her normal, happy life. We would not hesitate for a second to use him again!

Mariah was absolutely wonderful with Freddie and Oliver. She was extremely communicative throughout her stay and provided regular updates and photos, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. She took exceptional care of both dogs and was incredibly patient, calm, and attentive to their individual personalities and needs. Oliver can be anxious around new people, so I was especially impressed by how quickly he warmed up to her. The photos she sent showed him relaxed, comfortable, and happy, which speaks volumes about the trust he developed with her. It's clear that Mariah has a natural way with dogs and knows how to approach them in a calm, confident manner. I came home to two very happy, well-cared-for boys and a home that was in great shape. I would not hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate sitter.

I genuinely cannot say enough good things about Cornelia! She is incredibly communicative, always keeps me updated, and makes being away from home so much easier. My cat absolutely adores her (to the point where I’m starting to think he prefers her over me). Even my neighbor went out of her way to tell me how lovely she is! I’ve booked Cornelia twice now, and both times I’ve come home to a house that was somehow in better shape than when I left it. It’s the little things that really set her apart. She’s checked for street-cleaning signs, moved my car, brought in packages and kept me informed, and watered my plants. She’s incredibly thoughtful, reliable, and proactive, and genuinely cares about both my cat and my home. At this point, Cornelia feels more like family than a pet sitter. I honestly can’t imagine trusting anyone else with my cat and home, and she will absolutely be my go-to for every trip going forward. Could not recommend her more!
Koemi was fantastic! She took wonderful care of our two dogs Cooper and DiDi. She followed all our instructions carefully, her communication was exceptional, and she was sweet and patient with Cooper who has separation anxiety and is reactive on the leash. Highly recommend!

Adia was amazing! She took extra special care with the details and really understood both are crazy hunting girl and our super timid big boy. He has some separation anxiety but there was no problems and both dogs immediately accepted her as part of the pack. She was very loving and affectionate with them and spent a lot of time cuddling them on the couch. We told her that it wasn’t possible to send enough pictures, and she said challenge accepted. In fact, if it weren’t for the pictures, we would not have believed she was actually there because she left our home spotless. She communicated frequently and well for any issues that came up. We are already planning our rebook for the next trip

We had such a fantastic experience with Joey as a dogsitter for our pup. We have a somewhat anxious dog with so special health needs, and Joey was very diligent in accommodating all of those things and making sure our dog was happy, safe, and comfortable. He kept up great communication with us while we were gone, took wonderful care of our dog, and left our place spotless when he left. 100% recommend him!

Cris took wonderful care of our two dogs and apartment. We received great updates with adorable pictures (bonus points for including neighborhood Halloween decorations on walks). All instructions were followed perfectly and Cris went above and beyond. I wholeheartedly recommend Cris as a sitter and she'll be our first choice for any future bookings.

Julia was absolutely wonderful! She sent me updates multiple times a day with pictures. She left my apartment in excellent condition and went above and beyond in making sure she had access to my apartment as I was in a rush to the airport. I would definitely book with Julia again!

This was my first time booking with Victoria, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! She was so wonderful with our German Shepherd and kept us updated with the sweetest photos throughout her stay. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing our pup was in such good hands and that our home was being well cared for. I truly appreciated how thoughtful and caring she was, and I would absolutely love to book with her again. We’re so happy to have found her!

Megan is the best! She clearly loves dogs, and our dog absolutely loves her. Maisie was played with and cuddled constantly, and she and Megan enjoyed long walks together. And Megan was such a great houseguest, leaving everything clean and tidy. Megan is amazing!
