“Soojin is an amazing doggy sitter! My pup Toby loved her so much, the next time I brought him to stay with her he was practically jumping out of the car window to jump in her arms. She truly loves dogs and caring for them and will treat your pup as if it's her own. 10/10! Will absolutely bring Toby back to stay with her when I need a sitter.”
“Keira & her boyfriend were so sweet to my dog. She loved staying with them & was so tired when she got home. They sent me so many photos & updates. Would definitely recommend & rebook!”
“This was Penny’s second stay with Tatiana. She is always professional, thoughtful, and responsive. She is great with our older girl, who is a little slower than she used to be and needs a little TLC. PS - thanks for all the belly rubs! Love the daily updates and photos! Thanks again for taking such great care of Penny. Will not hesitate to book again!”
“Veronique was awesome, she was always checking in with me with photos of my little Rubi. She was very attentive and made me feel at ease. My dog was clearly comfortable and at ease in her care. I will definitely use her services again.”
“Luciana took care of our 11 year old Beagle overnight and took extra special care of him. He enjoyed some yummy treats and a morning walk and plenty of yard time. We will definitely rebook again! Thank you!”
“Svitlana took a great care of my tiny feather baby. She did everything per instructions including medications. She sent me a picture or video every day. My dog returned to me happy and healthy.”
About: I’ve been a hands-on dog owner for the past 5 years and currently have a Labrador Retriever, so I understand the daily care, attention, and love dogs need to thrive. Through raising my own dog, I’ve gained experience with feeding routines, walks, playtime, basic training reinforcement, and recognizing changes in behavior or mood. In addition, I’ve pet sat a puppy for two weeks, providing consistent care, supervision, and plenty of patience during an important developmental stage. I’m comfortable following specific instructions and routines to make sure each pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for while their owner is away. Pet care is a regular part of my daily and weekly routine. I structure my schedule around feeding times, walks, play sessions, and rest periods to ensure pets feel comfortable and secure. Since I already care for my own dog, adding another pet into my routine is seamless, and I make sure each pet receives individualized attention and care. When caring for pets in my home, I focus on maintaining a safe, calm, and loving environment. I follow each pet’s usual routine for feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and rest so they feel comfortable and at home. I provide plenty of supervision, exercise, and affection, and I make sure pets are introduced slowly and safely if needed. Clean water, a tidy space, and regular updates to owners are always a priority.
“Mary was a wonderful sitter and even accommodated his fear of thunder with comfort music. She shared pictures of Henry playing with other dogs in her care including her own two playing in the fenced in yard and inside staying cool. She was also accommodating our desire to pick Henry up earlier than initally planned. I highly recommend Mary and her husband.”
“Yessica is awesome with my pup. She kept me informed and up to date on what was going on. She was very understanding of Lady's special needs and very professional about my pet's care. I have finally found my regular sitter.”
“Eileen was absolutely wonderful! She updated us everyday on how things were going and sent adorable pictures. We appreciated her responsiveness and candor with her experience with our dog. Her kind and thoughtful demeanor put us completely at ease while we were out of town. Cannot thank her enough for watching our little guy!”
“We were last minute, and new customer for her. She handled us, and our pups perfectly! Plenty of pics/updates on how they were doing. We’ve been through a few sitters on here, and Alicia ranks right up there with the best. Thank you.”
“Eliza took such great care of our George! She sent updates and photos which we really appreciated! Thank you Eliza! George loved his stay with you and his new friend Lola :)”
“We went on a vacation for an extended time and June provided an excellent service so we could enjoy our time without any concerns. She sent us the pictures with brief details everyday and we could definitely tell that our dog has been in a good hand at the end of the stay. We definitely want to be a regular. Thank you!”
“Hi , Kichu had a great time with Mario. He texted me and also replied my text in a timely manner so I could solve the problem easily . I was able to enjoy my trip peacefully. He sent me Kichu’s pictures and videos.I highly consider Mario next time. Thank you for your service.”
“Dorothy is amazing and we couldn’t recommend her enough. She took the time to get to know my pup and her needs, and sent many updates while we were away. We are happy to have found someone we trust so much!”
“This is our repeat boarding with our delightful and energetic pup. Carolyn took care of River very well and took a lot of outdoor walks with her. Her home set-up and location close to a forest preserve, nature path and pond, are perfect, as River loves the outdoors. We feel reassured leaving our dog with Carolyn as it is somehow a treat and a home away from home for River.”
About: As a lifelong dog lover, I’ve had the joy of raising two dogs from puppies, giving me firsthand experience with everything from potty training and basic training to the high energy and patience that young dogs require. I have been dog sitting for friends & family in Michigan & Illinois for 3 years now. In my professional life, I’m an Occupational Therapist who works with older adults. I regularly help residents safely care for and enjoy time with their beloved pets, so I’m experienced in recognizing changes in behavior, adapting to individual needs, and providing calm, attentive care. I’m also comfortable with senior dogs who may need a slower pace. Because I’m young and active, I love getting outside for walks, playtime, and adventures that help energetic dogs stay happy and engaged. Whether your pup wants a long walk, a game of fetch, or just lots of cuddles and companionship, I’ll tailor my care to their personality and routine. My goal is to treat every dog as if they were my own, so you can feel confident they’re safe, loved, and having a great time while you’re away! I work a normal 9-5 Monday-Friday. Therefore I prefer to do Friday afternoon-Sunday evening stays! This way I am available 24/7 for the pet. I have a fenced in yard (that is also dig proof). I currently have one very friendly dog who would be eager to any pups companion. My dog is allowed on furniture/in beds. We have a lot of sidewalks & trails within our neighborhood for walks. I have multiple security cameras.

Jayne took great care of Theo during the time we had to be away. He was very anxious the first day due to terrible thunderstorms, and Jayne kept us posted about how he was doing! It meant a lot to us. She also shared pics throughout the day, which we’d look forward to. Theo would most definitely love going back to her!! He was so well taken care of and pampered by her family :) Highly recommend. Thanks Jayne!
Alex was a lifesaver when I needed last-minute care for my cat. He was responsive, clearly experienced — even with quirky orange tabbies — and had basic supplies on hand so I didn’t have to tow clunky things like the litter box or a scratching post. I will definitely be a repeat client!
Sherry took great care of our pup - she kept him active, had toys ready for him, was detail oriented when it came to his care, and sent updates with photos. It was clear he was well loved while in her home! She was easy to work with, flexible, and quick to respond/communicate.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in IL ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
