“Nadine was great! She sent detailed updates and great pictures, and I could tell she took amazing care of my cat while I was away. It was a relief knowing my cat was in such good hands. I would definitely ask Nadine to cat sit again!”

“Leila really helped us out with a last minute cat drop in visits request. She was very communicative, fast to respond, and went above and beyond to do extra things we didn’t even ask her to do! I highly recommend her to anyone!”

“Tim helped me with the care of my two dogs while I was out of town and my husband had some long work days. The dogs absolutely loved him and he updated me every visit with pictures and told me how they were doing. I will definitely be asking Tim to watch my boys in the future!”

“Magdalena was incredible! She kept me informed about how my cat Freeway was doing, was always responsive, and sent a lot of pictures (which made my day). Both Freeway and I were lucky to have her care — would 100% rebook.”


“Sofiia is great! Shes always on time. Renly absolutely loves her and it’s clear that she loves him too. Highly recommend her as a sitter or walker for your dog!”

“Eunice went above and beyond with my Tev! She came back the second day even though Tevi was having a hard time during the first visit. Eunice was amazing and very communicative.”


“Calvin and Monica were quick to reply, professional, and kind. They took great pictures of my cats and sent thorough reports! Thank you, Calvin and Monica!”

About: I've house-sat throughout college specifically for dog-watching. I can take dogs on walks or keep them company during holidays with fireworks to ensure the pets stay calm and safe I currently work full time, but I have the evenings free to do check-ins, walks, feedings or overnight stays. I am free Friday-Sunday to do more extensive care. I have experience watching pets always in their home. I can keep them company and stay overnight. I love meeting them beforehand too, so they can be comfortable once in my care
“Once again, Michael is the GOAT. Excellent care and actually takes time to interact with your pets. My cat loves him and I’ll book him again, undoubtedly.”

“Andres took good care of my two cats; they looked happily fed and were sitting nicely in all the pics! He was also flexible with timing, which I appreciated.”


About: Hi! I’m Emily — a dependable and caring animal lover based in Chicago. I’ve had medium to large dogs my whole life, so I’m very comfortable handling different energy levels, personalities, and needs. I also volunteer at PAWS Chicago, where I spend time caring for and working with dogs of different temperaments. This has given me experience reading dog behavior and helping them feel safe and comfortable in new environments. I currently don’t have a dog of my own at home, which allows me to give my full attention to the pets I’m caring for and be flexible with scheduling. My family dog Bella likes to come for a visit here and there for a few days in a row. She will not be with on our walks or home visits. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting, and I’m happy to adjust to your dog’s routine, energy level, and personality. Whether your dog needs a long walk, playtime, or just some company, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m very responsive, detail-oriented, and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how your pet is doing. I treat every pet like they’re my own and aim to make the experience stress-free for both you and your dog. Feel free to reach out with any questions — I’d love to meet you and your pup! I work in education so during the school year Monday-Friday I am free after about 4pm. I open on the weekends. During June-August I have a free schedule I provide a safe, calm, and attentive environment whether I’m in your home or out on walks. I always follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walking, and any specific instructions you provide. I’m experienced with medium to large dogs and comfortable handling different energy levels and personalities. I prioritize safety on walks by using secure leashing and staying aware of surroundings, and I always make sure pets feel comfortable and cared for. I’m also very communicative and will send regular updates and photos so you feel confident while you’re away.
“Great walker! Very reliable, punctual, and caring. My dog was happy and well taken care of, and I really appreciated the updates and photos during the walk. You can tell they genuinely love animals and treat them with care. I would definitely book again and highly recommend!”


“Yesenia is truly an awesome catsitter. I would recommend her if you want to feel secure that your sitter is taking care of your pets and looking after them. I will be booking with her again!”


About: I’m very comfortable around dogs and have always gotten along well with them. I’m patient, caring, and enjoy spending time with all dogs I have some extra time before I start working full-time in a few weeks, so I currently have a very flexible schedule. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and boarding and can give your dog plenty of attention. I’m comfortable caring for dogs and will make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I’ll follow your instructions closely and give your dog plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Lower West Side
Diana was amazing! She was super communicative, followed all of my care instructions, and showed my cat Figgy so much love. I get anxious whenever I travel and have to leave Figgy alone, and Diana made me feel so much better with how much care and attention she paid to Figgy. She sent plenty of videos as well to help me feel assured. Would highly recommend!

Absolutely wonderful experience! They were kind, reliable, communicative, and took such great care of my pet. I felt completely comfortable knowing she was in good hands, and I really appreciated the updates and attention they gave her. You can tell they genuinely care about animals. I would absolutely book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter! ❤️

Tim helped me with the care of my two dogs while I was out of town and my husband had some long work days. The dogs absolutely loved him and he updated me every visit with pictures and told me how they were doing. I will definitely be asking Tim to watch my boys in the future!

Paola was absolutely wonderful! She agreed to take care of my cat, Tinker, last minute for the weekend, and I’m so grateful she was able to help. Tinker was clearly very well cared for, which gave me such peace of mind while I was away. Paola also sent me the most beautiful pictures of her seriously, photos I couldn’t have taken that well myself! 🥹🐾 It was so nice getting those updates and seeing Tinker happy and comfortable. I would absolutely trust Paola with her again and will definitely be using her in the future. Highly recommend! ❤️

This was our first time using Lindsay for our 5 month old puppy. She was incredibly understanding of breed-specific needs (+my needs), communicative and thorough. There’s nothing better than knowing your fur family member is in good hands. We’ll definitely be using her again!
