“Erika is wonderful with my dog. He has warmed up to her. Neighbors shared how much they walked and how calm he was with her. I recommend her but not on the days I'll need her in the future”


“Brandi did a fabulous job taking care of my girl!!!! She kept me updated and sent pictures and videos. She played with Sky and took her on long walks. I would book her for all of my pet sitting needs!!!”


“This is the second time we’ve used Jordyn to watch our dog in our home and she did great with her! We can tell Polly is comfortable with her and loves having her stay here. Jordyn keeps us updated and leaves the house nice and clean. Will definitely use her again for future trips!”


“Jennifer did an awesome job keeping us informed and making the dogs very happy with playtime, lots of naps, and fun treats. It was so relaxing to be able to go away and know our home was watched and the dogs happy to stay in their own beds. If an occasion presents itself again where we need to travel and not have all thee dogs with us we will call her again.”


“Haylie did an amazing job!! She took excellent care of our fur babies and our home. She sent pictures at least once a day and made us feel so comfortable that we had the most relaxing vacation yet. I can’t thank her enough and look forward to having her back to stay. Thanks Haylie!!”



“Michelle is wonderful! Kind, attentive, reliable and experienced, great with our dog Mini. We definitely look forward to working with her again.”


“Eddie was amazing! We had to find someone last minute as our dog was having stomach issues and I didn't feel comfortable bringing her to our usual pet sitters home. This was our first time using rover.com and I was nervous about having someone that we didn't know in our home/take care of our dog. After meeting Eddie, I knew our dog and home were in good hands. You could tell our dog was well taken care of and not stressed, it was like we had never left her.”


“Kelli was fabulous! She was available on short notice and very accommodating with the nuances of my 14 year old Labrador retriever. I've used " Doggie Vcay" in the past with good results. Kelli immediately bonded with my baby girl while staying in my home. She sent cute pictures frequently putting my at ease that all was well. I returned to puppy kisses and a wagging tell, but really I don't even think I was missed, Perfect!”


“Every single day, rain, snow or sunshine, you can see Jess outside with her two dogs and many chickens. They go on long walks, play ball and sniff around under the care of Jessica. They have the absolute best fur/feather mom one can have. She would care for your fur babies just the same!”

“Angela is an outstanding pet sitter who gave our two dogs the best care we could have hoped for! She went above and beyond and is extraordinarily intuitive to both care of pets and home. Her demeanor is calm and kind, and we recommend her 100%!”


“Lisa did an absolutely amazing job watching our fur babies while we were out of town on a trip. She was helpful, communicative, and gave us peace of mind while we were away. We came home to very happy babies, and a few special treats she left as well. So thoughtful! She even took trash out and put dishes away. Definitely went above and beyond our expectations. Looking forward to having her house sit again for us and would absolutely recommend. Thanks Lisa!”


“She is good with animals and has had animals all throughout her life. She always takes care of any animal well and loves to be around animals. She’ll do an amazing job caring for the animals that need to be walked or fed. She is trustworthy, responsible, and reliable.”


“Michelle was polite, courteous and professional. Overall, she did the best she could with my youngest rescue being timid to the point of going inside the house for the three days I was travelling. Not her fault and I would like to continue for future trips in hopes of her acclimating to my shy, timid boy.”


“Ewa is wonderful with our two labs and my daughter's lab. She worked hard to win over their trust and once she had established that she had them eating out of her hands! They come running when she calls. She will be our first choice for dog sitter whenever we need one.”


“I have worked with Nancy while helping in animal rescue. She had asked us to help her foster to adopt a dog that was out of time at Chicago animal Control. She helped save her life and gave her a great home. She went on to foster many dogs for a group I worked with a few years back and did great with them. She would often take in the more difficult fosters with success as she was great with the dogs and knew how to read them. We knew any foster in her care was in great hands. She proved it time and again. I would trust Nancy whole heartedly with my pets as well as the many fosters we placed in her care.”

“My elder dog was well cared for & received a lot of love, tenderness, & kindness!!!!!”


“Jenna was great watching over my cat Luna! When I met her in person I immediately felt comfortable in entrusting her to the care of my cat while I was out of town. She played with Luna and Luna’s favorite cat toys, sent me pictures of my cat, and gave daily updates on how Luna was doing. I felt relieved knowing Luna was being well taken care of while I was gone. I would absolutely book with Jenna again if I needed another cat sitter in the future!”


“Jessica has a huge heart, especially for animals, and has shown that time and time again. Multiple times she has been responsible for my herd (4 of them!) as I often leave the country for long periods. She is extremely caring, attentive to their needs, takes the time to play with them and make them feel comfortable, and shows great competency for my special needs cat who must be fed separate food and has to have her cone and medical supplies cleaned daily. I can honestly say I think they miss her just as much as they miss me! Hah! I'd highly recommend her services. She won't let you down!”

“I went out of town for a weekend and Salina took care of my dogs and cat she came every day and cleaned the litter and feed the cat and she alway sent me pictures. As for the dogs she took them with her and her and her kids took great care of them, so much that the dogs wanted to stay with her. I would definitely hire her again”

“I have known Amanda for 20 and she is one of the best pet sitters that I have ever had look after my boys! Over that time frame I have had four cats (two who currently live with me and two that have passed over the rainbow bridge) and she has been there to look after them all. She has always had a great way with animals and has the experience not only for petsitting but also the experience as a Vet Tech. While I was in the military and one of my cats was living with my grandparents she look in on him and see if anything was needed. Once I returned to the area and I was traveling quite a bit for both work and pleasure she would make sure my kitties were well taken care of. She would send me photos of my boys to show me they were doing well. Additionally, when I had to go in for surgeries for my organ transplant she was there to make sure that I wouldn't have to worry. I knew that as long as she was looking after them they would be in good hands and I could focus on getting better. Amanda's experience with pet sitting animals both large and small and also her years of experience as an amazing Vet Technician make her the perfect companion and guardian for your fur baby family. If you want a wonderful person who will love and take care of your fur babies as if they were her own I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Amanda!”
