“Gabriela & Richard took awesome care of my Tyson, I feel lucky to have found people who took such great care of my pup! Every picture or video they shared showed him as being completely comfortable and happy. I would highly recommend them!”
“Andrea was amazing! She had our 2 goldens for 4 nights. She sent photos and videos everyday and kept us updated on how they were doing! They loved staying with her!! Will definitely use again!!”
“Lorraine is the best! She’s very reliable and cares for our dog like she’s her own. Our dog loves it there so much so that we have to con her into leaving to go home!”
“Great communication and did amazing with our anxious doggie. It was hard to predict our dog’s anxiety level as she had never been away from us for so long, but they really made it work. Grateful for their service”
“Malcholm and his family took amazing care of my two dogs pitbull mixes. They stayed for about five days and Malcholm sent photos every day. He incorporated my dogs into their family life and it really seems like the dogs had a great time. Malcholm included the dogs on walks to school as well as at neighborhood activities. Both dogs take supplements with their meals, and Malcholm followed my feeding instructions carefully. He also asked clarification questions to ensure that their transition was smooth and that they were comfortable during their stay. Malcholm was easy to communicate with and coordinate with before during and after my dogs’ stay at his home. The kids in the home enjoyed the dogs and I’m glad that they kept my dogs company while I was away. Malcholm and his family really really enjoy animals and I’m glad that my pups can be part of their lives every now and again. Gracie and Sisco’s beds, blanket and toys were well taken care of and I think, even cleaned before I picked them up. I’m very happy with the care that Malcholm and his family provided to my dogs and I will certainly avail of his services again when I go out of town or need overnight dog care. I don’t think my dogs Gracie and Sisco have ever been happier while I was away and I am super grateful to have found Malcholm! Thank you!!”
“Luciane and Luciano took care of my dog for 5 days and took such good care, he wasn’t even excited to see me when I got home. He was super happy there and walked a ton! They took so many photos and I got to see them all. I got plenty of updates on how he was doing. I was totally relaxed on my vacation because I knew he was in good hands! I seriously recommend them to watch your pets, they’re amazing at their job. DON’T waste your time looking for another petsitter, they’re the best around.?”
“Doug and Debbie were great with my dog Pucha. Pucha came back happy and relaxed. They kept me updated throughout the stay and treated her with much care. I highly recommend Doug and Debbie.”
“Ian was terrific! He was attentive to detail, an excellent communicator, and conveyed a genuine warmth and care for our dogs. We were immediately comfortable knowing our dogs would be receiving great care. Upon return, our dogs were made an easy transition home, confirming that they were, indeed, in good hands with Ian!”
“Ruben was amazing! He went above and beyond to make sure Kodak enjoyed his time there and was taken care of. Great communication, he responds quickly & I received pictures & updates throughout the day & evening. Kodak got a long well with his dogs and enjoyed playing with them! When I picked him up Ruben gave me a thank-you bag with a handwritten note (it was so sweet) & a squeaker toy for Kodak. I will definitely be booking with him again in the future!”
“Clarissa remains the best! Nashi loves going over there and always comes back so exhausted from all the fun she has! Thank you for taking such good care of my pup!”
“Diana and Scott were the perfect match for Kimi - who absolutely had a blast for the two weeks we were away. I was able to enjoy our trip knowing she was so well cared for, like Kimi was their own. Everyday updates, videos and photos made our extended absence manageable, and I will absolutely be booking them for future needs. You can be assured your fur babies will be in amazing hands. I’m so grateful.”
“Amazing sitter! Our puppy had a great time and was calm, tired and happy when we picked him up. Thank you for all the pictures and for being so flexible. Definitely coming back!”
“I cannot recommend Bailey enough! I was out of the country for a week, with little to no signal, and Bailey still managed to keep me updated as much as she could. My dog, Leo, wasn't eating alot in the beginning and Bailey did everything she could to get him eat and gave him a bath or two after rolling he rolled in poop lol. It was my first time using Rover and I'm so glad I came across her profile! Also, it was a last minute booking and she was able to accept Leo. Thank you, Bailey, for taking care of Leo as if he was your own pup. I know he misses you! Will definitely be rebooking!”
“Frankie had an amazing stay with Julia. She was very attentive and took great care of him. Also, she was great at communicating with us and making us feel comfortable, knowing that he was doing great. Highly recommended!”
“I love Jonelle & her family! She is very nice, super accommodating, has great communication and genuinely loves animals! Dakota took to her immediately and I’m starting to think she’s sad that she’s back home! 😬 ! I cannot thank her enough for taking such good care of my big baby! ❤️”
“Angel was very responsive and accommodated early check in. He made sure Dobby is comfortable with his pets before going in and sent regular photos and updates with what Dobby had been up to. Definitely recommend to anyone in the Chicago area.”
Melrose Park pet parents share their Rover experiences
I have been leaving my dogs at Robs place for over a year now. My dogs are always excited when they get there and are always having a good time playing with the other pups there. Rob always sends videos of him walking our dogs and of them playing with others which is always great to see. I will continue using Rob for future stays!
Robert watched our dog Izzy and we had a great experience! It’s never easy leaving a senior pup with someone new, but he sent many updates and pictures, and she came home happy and exhausted! Highly recommend, we would love to leave Izzy with him again knowing she is in great, capable hands!
Cheryl cared for our dog Chewie with so much kindness and genuine love it truly meant a lot to us. You can feel when someone has a natural connection with animals, and she absolutely does. From the beginning, she made us feel at ease, and that peace of mind is priceless when you’re away from your pet. We even needed to extend our stay by a night, and she was incredibly understanding and accommodating without hesitation. She also sent us frequent photos and videos, which made us feel so connected and reassured. Seeing Chewie happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for made all the difference. It’s not easy to trust someone with your dog, but Cheryl made it feel effortless. We’re deeply grateful for the love and attention she gave Chewie, and we wouldn’t hesitate to trust her again. Truly a beautiful experience. Highly recommend!
Where do I start !! We boarded my dog for 3 nights for the first time and it went great! Liz and David made everything so smooth and easy. They have one playful dog and two kids that make the experience even more fun for your doggy! They followed her usual routine as close as possible for feeding and sleeping. They updated us with photos and text check-ins daily. So reassuring and relaxing to know your fur baby is not only safe but happy! She literally stared at their house as we drove away! I definitely recommend!
Cagatay and Busra were 1000/10 with our pups. We received photo and video updates while away on our long weekend, so much appreciated! Our two dogs were walked frequently and played with so much. We can't thank them enough for taking such good care of Balto and Corona.
Michele has watched my dog twice now, and she is absolutely wonderful. Our dog is always calm, happy, and clearly well cared for when I return, which gives me so much peace of mind. Michele’s communication is excellent—she’s responsive, thoughtful, and keeps me updated. She’s reliable, kind, and truly fabulous. I feel very lucky to have found her and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a fantastic dog sitter. I will book her again and again!
