“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!”

About: I have been a proud dog mom for the past 9 years, so caring for dogs has always been a big part of my life! I live a very active lifestyle and truly believe our pets deserve to enjoy that same energy, whether that means a long walk, playtime, or simply getting some extra love and attention throughout the day. Over the years, I’ve cared for all kinds of dogs and have regularly dog-sat for friends and neighbors. I recently moved to Chicago and am excited to bring my love for dogs to Rover! I’m especially comfortable with big dogs and high-energy pups who need a little extra exercise, structure, and attention. My goal is to make every pup feel happy, safe, loved, and right at home while they’re in my care. 🐾 I manage & teach at a Pilates studio so my schedule is pretty flexible! I am also a very early riser 🌞 I also have a car, so transportation will never be an issue. Communication is the most important part of caring for your pet! I’ll make sure we’re aligned on your dog’s routine, needs, and preferences, and I’ll keep you updated throughout their time with me. Your pup’s safety, comfort, and happiness always come first.

About: I've taken care of dogs for my neighbors and family friends throughout middle school and into high school! I have experience walking dogs and taking care of them when their people were on vacation! I am happy to send pictures or videos updates of your pup and will gladly play with them! I am excited to have wide availability to take care of animals! I am open to mornings, evenings, and would be more than happy to stay overnight! I really enjoy spending time with animals! It's important to me to get to know your pet! I would love for you to share with me how you care for your pets, so that I can care for them as well as you do! I love to cuddle, play, and engage with all dogs and cats!
“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.”

“Lelia was great with my 2 cats, one of them took a treat right from her hand! This was the kitty who usually doesn’t go near anyone except me. She was able to give my cat his medications , all 4 of them with no issues ! I would definitely recommend her to any pet owners to care for their pets.”

About: Up until recently I had a large reactive dog. She was my best friend and taught me not only patience, but also taught me so much about dogs. I wfh and am looking to add a little something to my schedule. I would love to give your dog the exercise it needs while you’re at work. I am willing to work with reactive dogs in case by case basis. I am also a dog walking volunteer at CACC. I wfh and have flexibility in my schedule. I am available afternoons and evenings m-f and can work something out on weekends if it was needed. I would take care of your animals at your home based on instructions you give me for you pet. I respect you as an owner and your pet and do not want to give overstep and boundaries
“Michael was great with the cats. They both really liked him. He was very diligent - took lots of pictures and provided good updates. He was also very communicative, professional, and punctual. Can’t recommend him enough!”


“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!”

“Andres was great with my cat even though she doesn’t love new people. He sent plenty of pictures and made sure that she had water and food and clean litter. He went out of his way to accommodate when I needed to extend my trip. Will definitely book him again!”


“Calvin always takes such great care of our fur babies. I can rest easy that they are being loved in and safe. He goes above and beyond to make them (and us) feel at ease while traveling. 10/10 would recommend his services!”
“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!”

“Breanna was great! She did a couple drop-in visits (on short notice) with our pup who is only a few weeks out of surgery. We had ease of mind that he was well cared for when we couldn't be home during the day.”

“Eunice was amazing! She treated Luna with so much care and provided really great thorough updates throughout her stay with her. This was my first time leaving my 13 week old puppy by herself and I could not have felt more relaxed knowing that she was in your care. Thank you so much Eunice, I will definitely be rebooking!”


“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!”

“Lorena is a great dog walker and sitter! She responded to all of my requests quickly and she works so well with my elderly dog. I’ve used her services for both dog sitting at her place and for check-in walks over weekends away. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter!”

“I had to change cat sitters last minute and I am very happy that Gwen was available. She took great care of my two boy cats. She also didn't have a problem with stocking the feeder with wet food every three days. Initially, there was a misunderstanding that was quickly remedied. When I came back, my two boys were happy and healthy, freshly brushed. Gwen apparently even cleaned the couch, as there was no hair to be found there. She also agreed to keep my huge number of plants alive during the time that I was gone... and it turned out to be a monumental task with >90F heat every day. But they are all thriving! Thank you!”

About: Ive had dogs all throughout my childhood and and even now. I’ve owned different sized dogs as well as different ages. I’ve pet sitter before for family and friends! I’m currently in school during the mornings so my availability is open during the afternoon and evening! (after 2pm) My classes are online so it is possible for me to work before 2pm. I’m available all weekend! I enjoy getting to know the pets and seeing their personality shine through. I’ve personally have had different dogs from small to big and different cats. :D

Kristi took such great care of my two cats! She followed instructions well and catered to each of their personalities, which I really appreciated. She was also very communicative, took lots of photos, and gave detailed updates. Highly recommend if you're looking for a pet sitter!
Mina is everything you're looking for in a Rover! She was on time every day, sent tons of photos/videos and written updates on our pets mood/state of play! Fantastic communication. Our home was exactly as we left it. Biscotti's food and water was full when we got back. We were away for quite some time, and she provided our pet the consistency we were looking for during our trip and made us feel confident our pet was in good hands. This was our first time using Rover and we will 10/10 be requesting Mina again in the future. Thank you!

Lisa remains our go-to person for watching our cats when we go out of town. She keeps us updated on how the cats are doing and sends plenty of pictures. She also makes sure that our one cat takes his meds with his food. We can trust Lisa to make sure the cats are well-cared for when we are not there.

Katie was great. She did everything that was asked. She played with the cats, sent photos and was able to give my cat medicine which isn’t the easiest of tasks! I would recommend her to any cat owner and in the future if she is available I would hire her again! Thanks Katie!

Leila went above and beyond with her care of my two cats while I was out of town! She sent me detailed updates about how the cats were doing every day and how they were interacting with her. She cleaned up after each visit and even vacuumed up some litter outside of the litter box! I came home to two very happy and well cared-for cats. Thank you Leila!

Tierney did an amazing job watching my seven month puppy and 4 year old cat. She was so attentive to their individual needs and personalities. It just so happened when she was watching our little ones it was time to transition my puppy to adult food. She kept me updated through the process and I knew my babies were in good hands the entire time I was away. She is also an excellent pet photographer

Our cat Rocket loves Emily :) Emily took care of Rocket a couple times now during our trip, including some long-term ones. That meant Emily had to come in twice a day, every day, for 2-3 weeks. She wasn't late to a single visit, gave Rocket lots of pets and attention, and sent us a lot of pictures while we were overseas. She truly went above and beyond as a sitter and we cannot recommend Emily enough!

Morgan cared for our senior cats, including one with complex medical needs, and understood how important routine is to their health and sense of security. Her medication experience including insulin, attention to detailed instructions, and calm, dependable manner gave us confidence in her care. Highly recommend.

Nadine did an amazing job taking care of our dog! She was super flexible, responsive, and made the whole process really easy for us. You can tell she genuinely cares about the dogs she watches, and we felt completely comfortable knowing our dog was in good hands. She was reliable, attentive, and went above and beyond to make sure everything went smoothly. We really appreciate everything she did and would absolutely recommend Nadine to anyone looking for a great sitter!

Dominic took care of our two cats, Borah and Zoey, while we were away for a week. He was reliable and consistent, arriving around the same time each day. We really appreciated knowing they were being checked on while we were away and would happily recommend him!

Ning was a wonderful cat sitter! She was very reliable, caring, and attentive, and took great care of my cat while I was away. She kept me updated during the visits, which gave me great peace of mind. Everything went smoothly, and I came home to a happy and well-cared-for cat. I would definitely book with Ning again and highly recommend her!
