“Eliana was absolutely amazing. My partner and I have a disabled fur baby with a number of special needs, and Eliana was incredibly diligent, asked all the right questions, followed our instructions closely, and took such great care of Miss Bean and our home. We came home to a happy, healthy pup and couldn’t have been more appreciative. I will absolutely be reaching back out for future travel plans. She was a dream to have stay with our fur baby!”
“Faith showed up for every drop in and took my babies for walks. She kept an extra close eye on Neville because he’d just had a tooth extracted and was on a soft diet with pain meds. Faith patiently soaked his kibble and proportioned his wet food to go with it and I’m so grateful for that. She was great with my fur children.”
“Allison was great! She was very accommodating and communicative before the stay, and continued to be awesome throughout the stay. She sent pictures and updates throughout the weekend, which I really appreciated. We came home to a super happy pup and a very clean home! I will definitely be using Allison again and can’t recommend her enough! Thank you so much Allison!!”
“I was very nervous as a first time Rover user and so happy I found Emily! She asked detailed questions about my dogs care and habits during our initial meet and greet which put me at ease, sent photo updates during her stay where he seemed very happy / comfortable with her and came home to a clean place. Would definitely book again!”
“Reshunda was amazing to work with. My pup has some allergy issues and she did a great job at checking in and following directions. Thanks so much for taking care of my baby!”
“Angela was amazing with George and was able to help us out when we came to town for the night. She’s extremely knowledgeable, kind and timely. Can’t recommend her enough!”
“Took amazing care of our dogs while we were away for 10 days! She kept us up to date regularly and took some of the best pictures. She also got them comfortable with short outdoor walks which we plan to keep up now that we’re back. Would highly recommend her for your pet care needs !”
“Elizabeth is always so great with my dog! I really appreciate the consistent pictures and updates while I’m gone, it really puts my mind at ease. This is my second time having her house sit and both times have been amazing!”
“Elissa was so amazing with our pup, Lincoln! She gave regular updates and photos and was also so flexible when our travel was a little delayed. I felt so comfortable the entire visit - I can’t thank her enough!”
“Amazing as always! Im able to enjoy my vacations thanks to the peace that Andres provides when looking after Xena. I can easily tell she has fun with him by the way she gets so excited to see him.”
“Samantha is amazing. She took care of my two Frenchies for 8 days in my home. She took over new training techniques for the puppy with no problem (with very little notice I might add). She took amazing care of my babes and left my apartment just as I’d left it. Love her!”
“Brianna was such an amazing sitter! She took great care of my two cats while I was out of town for a week, and sent multiple daily photo updates, making it clear she is a true animal lover. I highly recommend using her services, thank you so much Brianna!”
“I would absolutely recommend Gwen to anybody that needs pet care!!! She was super nice, very responsive, and followed all the instructions I left for my dog’s care. My dog warmed up to Gwen instantly and I loved seeing pictures of the two of them playing/ cuddling. I will definitely be booking her again!!!!”
“Jade was outstanding! they provided us with the peace of mind we needed to enjoy our time away. they were both responsive and proactive in communication, which showed they genuinely cared. should we ever need their services again Jade will certainly be out first choice!”
“Jorie was great with my anxious dog Bear! She was patient, calm, and gently assertive where needed and he felt very comfortable with her. He can be reactive with strangers and she handled him well. Bear fell into his normal routine quickly, and relaxed at home during the house sit.”

“Yesenia is so knowledgeable and attentive. Our cat was scared of fireworks so she made him a fort using a chair and a blanket; she also won over our rescue lab, who is wary of anything and anyone new. In addition to seemingly being a natural with animals, Yesenia is a pleasure to work with and provides lots of updates to pet parents. 100% will be using her again!”
About: I've lived with dogs my whole life, as well as cats later into my teenage years and I just love pets so much. They are the purest creatures out there. I don't know why I didn't sign up for Rover sooner! I will be working to buy my dogs more toys and treats! As of right now, I recently got hired at Culinary Care Chicago, and only have requirements from 11-1 on weekdays, and so working around that time frame is my top priority. But because I work freelance work such as UberEATS and Doordash, my schedule is real flexible. So just send me a message and we'll see if it can work out! I truly hope to hear from you and meet some awesome doggies! As of right now, I am working on training my own dogs. So they require a little more attention as they are shelter dogs but I love them so much. At a clients home, I will definitely see what kind of personality they have, and determine how to move forward. If they need more guidance, I will definitely use more treats to give them a little nudge in the right direction. Or if you're doggy wants to chill out and relax, I'll sit there with them. Making sure that they get pet if they want that. And if I need to give them space, I'll make sure I stay nearby to show them I am there for them!

Zhanna was absolutely amazing with my cat, who is an Abyssinian cat. He can definitely be a handful, he’s extremely curious, energetic, and very demanding when it comes to attention but she handled him perfectly. She was patient, attentive, and genuinely engaged with him, and I could tell he felt completely comfortable with her. I really appreciated the updates and knowing he was getting plenty of attention and affection while I was away. I felt completely at ease leaving him in her care and would absolutely book with Zhanna again!
Allison was absolutely wonderful with our French bulldog and two cats. As protective pet parents, this was our first time leaving all three of them in someone else’s care, so naturally we were a little apprehensive. Allison immediately put us at ease by offering two consultation visits before our trip so she could thoroughly understand our pets’ individual needs, routines, personalities, and home environment. That level of preparation and genuine care meant a lot to us. Throughout our vacation, Allison was incredibly attentive and responsive. She arrived early and kept us updated with multiple messages and plenty of photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that she wasn’t simply checking in on our pets, but genuinely caring for them and making sure they were happy and comfortable. She even went above and beyond by offering thoughtful advice for our continued care of the pets, which we really appreciated. You can tell Allison truly loves animals and takes the responsibility of caring for them seriously. She also left the house tidy and in great shape. It was such a small gesture, but after coming home from a long trip, walking into a clean and tidy home made a bigger difference than she probably realized. We came home to three happy, well-cared-for pets and felt completely comfortable knowing they were in Allison’s hands. She helped make our vacation so much more enjoyable because we never had to worry about how things were going at home. We would absolutely recommend Allison and will definitely be using her services again. Thank you, Allison, for taking such wonderful care of our babies and allowing us to have such a relaxing vacation. We truly couldn’t have done it without you!
Eliana was absolutely amazing. My partner and I have a disabled fur baby with a number of special needs, and Eliana was incredibly diligent, asked all the right questions, followed our instructions closely, and took such great care of Miss Bean and our home. We came home to a happy, healthy pup and couldn’t have been more appreciative. I will absolutely be reaching back out for future travel plans. She was a dream to have stay with our fur baby!
Danielle was amazing with my dogs! She was very patient, caring, and attentive to their needs. She kept me updated throughout their stay and sent plenty of pictures, which gave me great peace of mind. It was clear they were happy and well cared for. I highly recommend Danielle and will definitely use her again!
McKenzie is a stellar house sitter - she sent me daily updates about my pets while I was out of town and we both cheered when my very shy cats came out of hiding for her! She also left my home in spotless condition. I will absolutely book again for future travel. Thank you McKenzie!
Derek was great with my two German Shepherds! I have two older, German shepherds who are rescues-one has had separation anxiety in the past and the other needs daily medications. Derek was available on short notice and came over to meet them before staying at our place for three days. He sent regular updates and photos while we were away, and was very good at communicating. I could tell my dogs were at ease with him which gave me so much peace of mind! Would definitely recommend Derek!
We trusted Ann-Marie to care for our toy fox terrier Loki in our house for over a week. She did a wonderful job! When we got home, it was clear that Loki adores her—he was happy, relaxed, and sad to see her go. Ann-Marie adjusted perfectly to Loki’s schedule and sent us photos while we were away. She even took him on walks to new places that he loved. Most of all, Ann-Marie was a calm, reliable and trustworthy presence in Loki’s life for an extended period of time. We are extremely grateful. Thank you so much!!!
Gail did a phenomenal job caring for our Jasperboy! He needed medication and eye drops, and she handled everything with such care and attention that we never had to worry. She communicated regularly, kept us updated, and even sent pictures, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away on an international trip. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup. We highly recommend her and will definitely use her again! Already have other bookings scheduled with her. She is fantastic!!
Second time booking with Nadine and definitely won’t be my last. She takes such good care of my kitties and I can tell they are happy with her too based on how they act when I come back. Always happy and not mad at me or hiding upon my return. Thank you Nadine 💛💛💛
Stephanie came over for a Meet & Greet and immediately clicked with our puppy. We loved that Stephanie listened carefully to our instructions (first time leaving new puppy!) and exhibited that in her detailed periodic reports throughout the sitting period. We felt comfortable leaving our puppy with Stephanie, and will happily book her again on Rover for future sittings!
