“Kristin is the best! She was very communicative and made sure to send detailed updates on our cats! Speaking of, our cats can be quite shy but not with Kristin. She is good animal vibes all around. I’d recommend her to anyone!”

“Claire is awesome!! She did a great job on keeping us looped in while we were on our trip, and captured super cute pics of our girls. We also had a last minute prescription need which Claire accommodated and we greatly appreciated. Can’t recommend her enough!”

“Delaney went above and beyond to make sure my dogs were cared for and loved while away at work. I couldn’t have asked for a better caregiver, and am very happy to have her care for them in the future. Highly recommend!”


About: Hi there! My name is Ashley and I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life and can’t imagine life without them. My two Brittany spaniels, Tucker (11) and Cooper (9), are my absolute favorites (along with my husband, of course!). I have several years of experience dog walking and pet sitting from college and beyond, and I recently decided to reopen my Rover account because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. Since I work from home, I have a flexible schedule that makes it easy to fit in walks and drop-in visits. I understand how important daily exercise is for dogs and am passionate about providing dogs with the activity, attention, and care they need while their owners are away. When you book with me, I can guarantee to treat your pets like they’re part of my own family! P.S. I am a runner and would be happy to jog with your pup if they require a little bit more exercise. I will not jog if I feel it’s too hot (over 85 degrees) and will jog at your dog’s pace. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. This allows me to easily plan dog walks and drop-in visits throughout the day, whether it’s during the morning, lunch hour, or afternoon. I enjoy the opportunity to step away from my desk, spend time outside, and make sure other pets get the exercise, attention, and care they need. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make it a priority to follow their normal routine as closely as possible so their pets feel comfortable and secure. I know every dog has different needs, so I take the time to understand their schedule, exercise needs, feeding routine, and any special instructions. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, fresh water, feeding, or simply giving them company, I treat each pet with the same care and attention I give my own pups. I also respect each client’s home, keeping everything tidy and making sure their pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while they’re away.
“We knew our cats would be in good hands with Lavinia! She was very friendly, easy to communicate with and did a great job checking in on the cats while we were away.”

“Jess was wonderful and did a fabulous job with Nina while I was away, checking in on her and keeping her company. Very responsive, sent great pics and updates! I came home to a happy and relaxed kitty. Would absolutely book again.”


“Thank you Laura for helping us out with our girl! She followed directions great, gave updates, and did everything that was asked! Will be using Laura in the future :)”

“Rachael was amazing! This was our first time using Rover and we were nervous about leaving our pup with a stranger. She made us feel so comfortable and provided above and beyond updates and lots of pictures. I looked forward to getting her River cards! She also did additional things like turning on and off the AC for us depending on crazy Chicago temps. I would recommend Rachael to watch anyone’s pup!”

“We had a great experience with Lauryn! She was responsive and communicative, and provided wonderful care for our fur baby, Stella. Looking forward to working with her again in the future!”

“Devan was great! She was kind and communicative - and went above and beyond taking care of my cat and my home. I got lots of cute photo updates - and I won't hesitate to book with Devan again!”

“Cierra was great! She came over to meet the cats ahead of time. I was very punctual and provided updates and photos during the visits. Would absolutely recommend her to others looking for sitters!”

About: I have 3 dogs at home and recently got a cat. I’ve cared for my 3 family dogs for around 5 years until I moved to Chicago and just got a cat. I’ve dealt with the craziness that is feeding and potty training 3 dogs at the same time and also picked up being a cat owner. I have very good discipline for myself so it’s just second nature taking care of an animal for me I work from home, so I’m pretty free when I’m not swamped with meetings or deliverables. I like taking walks around my neighborhood so checking up on pets would just be an extra reason to get out I am very keen on reading body language of pets so I know when they don’t want to be bothered/if they want to play. I keep my space tidy because personally I don’t like when things are disorganized or if there’s litter laying around so I routinely clean after them
“Ryan was amazing! Very consistent and communicative with updates and pictures every visit. I was able to focus on travel knowing that my cats were well-cared for with confidence!”

“Cori is very consistent and communicative! She has watched the cats several times while I travel for work and is reliable and sends fun pictures of the cats. Highly recommend!”

Lake View pet parents share their Rover experiences
Cris watched our 3 cats for us while we were out of town for a long weekend. I felt like she was very thorough and provided excellent care for them while we were away. She kept us updated and sent plenty of pictures for our peace of mind. Overall great experience!!

Monika is absolutely wonderful! She has been caring for our kitty for about 3 years now, and we couldn’t recommend her more. She’s attentive, reliable, and treats our cat with so much love and care. It means everything knowing our girl is safe and happy while we’re away. 💕

Dominique is fantastic - we could not recommend her more highly. From the start she was responsive, communicative, and easy to coordinate with. She shows up on time, every time. Most importantly, she is genuinely wonderful with our dog - he warmed up to her quickly, which is not always easy, and we could tell right away that she has a real way with dogs. We trust her completely and will absolutely be booking with her again. If you are looking for someone reliable, warm, and great with your dog, look no further.
