“This was my first time using Rover and Neal made it a great experience! Neal took great care of my dog Titus while I was on a trip and I couldn’t be more thankful. I was gone for 2 weeks and he sent me multiple pictures and updates throughout the trip! He made sure to take Titus for walks and that he got his medicine every morning and he looked happy in every picture Neal sent and I couldn’t ask for more. I would 100% use Neal for every trip I take in the future.”

“Tammy was a fantastic sitter for my cat Solana! She was so kind and asked all detailed questions about my cat’s medication and food schedule. I loved all the picture updates she gave of how my cat was doing while I was out of town. Thank you Tammy!”

“Emily is communicative, trustworthy, and compassionate. During her first stay with our dog and two cats, she handled a vet emergency responsibly and with grace. We’re very happy to recommend her services!”


“Adam is awesome! He took great care of our dog- and home- while we were out of town. He communicated well and everything went smoothly. Our dog is super anxious and Adam handled everything like a pro. We are so thankful. Highly recommend Adam!”

“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!”

“Renee was excellent with my dogs on most fronts with only a couple of issues. She went above and beyond when one of them got an ear infection- taking him to the vet, even had her mom drive him which was amazing, she was generally very communicative and meticulous with their care. She even washed them and cleaned up before leaving. The issue i had with her majorly was the lack of any walks in the first 4 days of care. That's too long of a duration to go without walks. This did seem like a consequence of extenuating circumstances for her so I wouldn't characterize that as her caregiver personality. I do however think having big dogs with no walk time for 4 consecutive days is unacceptable as a general rule. She was extremely apologetic and explained her situation to me. She was regular with walks after I reiterated that only yard time is not ok, she needs to walk them daily and not just give them yard time. She left my house very clean and even gave my dogs baths before leaving, a completely unexpected kindness. Despite the hiccups I think she is a very caring and meticulous dog sitter.”

“LeChar was great!! Was not worried at all about my puppy, and she was so calm, understanding and well versed in handling a less then 1 year old dog. Left the place very clean as well! Highly recommend!”

“Ryan did an excellent job taking care of my little pup. He took the time to really understand what he needed from the initial meet and greet, took notes and demonstrated care and interest in my dog, and was always very communicative. While watching him, he provided daily pictures of him and my dog playing, along with progress reports and updates on how he was doing in general. Communication was always on point. Ryan’s care for my dog, Scotch, really helped me focus on my vacation knowing that Scotch was in really great hands.”

“Kelso was great watching my 12-week old puppy for the day! I was worried because it was our first time leaving him with a sitter, and Kelso rally put us at ease and took great care of him. Would recommend and use again for sure!”

“We had a wonderful experience with Veronika! She was great with our dog and our cat, and she was very responsive and professional in her communication. She asked all the right questions and sent regular updates on our girls. We will definitely ask her to watch our girls again when we go out of town!”

“Mikayla was great with my dog and cat! Mikayla was very welcoming and friendly with the animals and asked great questions that made me confident they were in good hands!”

“Andre is so nice! And communicates well! And receptive to what I needed for my dog and my cat! But most importantly, coming home, I’ve never seen the two animals this relaxed and chill after I left them for several days. That told me all I need to know!”

“Gail was an excellent caretaker for our dog while we were away for a trip. She was communicative, caring, and left our home clean! We will definitely use her again!”

“Chris was so great! He stayed in our home and was great at communicating throughout the time we were away. We are watching an older family dog and he was great with her! You can tell he has a passion for pets and his presence makes anyone feel comfortable. 100% recommend.”

“Connor did a wonderful job caring for Freddie and Oliver! He followed all of my instructions closely, including administering medications, which really helped everything go smoothly. He recently started walking the boys, and this overnight stay helped them become even more comfortable and build a stronger bond with Connor. When I got home, they were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. My condo was left clean and in great shape too. Overall, I’m so grateful for the care, attention, and kindness he showed Freddie and Oliver, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book Connor again”

“Sarah and Walter were wonderful! Easy to communicate with and sent daily updates. My pup can run anxious when I am out of town. They were so patient with her and made Sunny feel right at home!”

Lincoln Square pet parents share their Rover experiences
Nicole was the perfect houseguest and dog sitter for our time away from home! We got frequent updates and summaries of our pup, Maurice’s, behavior and care and our home was left truly spotless when we returned. It was our first time leaving Maurice with someone outside of close friends and family, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. I would recommend her over and over again! Thank you so much, Nicole!

Patty was such a godsend as we had a last minute cancel from another sitter on a different site right before our vacation. Patty exceeded all our expectations. She was so easy to work with, competent, professional, and trustworthy right off the bat. I never worried once about our bulldog, Bo. and that is saying a lot as I am always worried about his well being! We came home to a happy dog and a tidy apartment which felt like a warm hug after a stressful day of travel. Would definitely rebook with Patty again!

Renee took such wonderful care of our dog Josie during a 2-week house sitting stay. Josie can be a little shy and anxious at first, but she really took to Renee and ended up being super affectionate, which made us so happy to see. Renee was incredibly patient and attentive, and really took the time to understand Josie and what makes her comfortable. She kept us updated consistently with messages, photos, and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She also went above and beyond in so many ways, from taking Josie on long walks to even celebrating her birthday/gotcha day with a dog-friendly cake, which was such a thoughtful touch. It was clear Josie was not only well cared for, but genuinely loved while we were gone. We came home to a happy, relaxed pup and a well cared for home. We would absolutely book Renee again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pet like their own.

Allie did a really great job with Mabel. She was very communicative, punctual, and an overall great house guest. We returned from our trip and Mabel looked very well taken care of. We were very happy with Allie and would definitely recommend and use here again.

I am so glad we found Josie. She was amazing with my 3 month old pup, very responsive and responsible - kept Luna on her schedule, gave her medication and provided regular updates, as well as some great pictures. We will definitely be using Josie again in the future and highly recommend her without hesitation.
