“Katrina was absolutely fantastic. She went above and beyond taking care of Snowy while I was visiting Chicago. I would strongly recommend her to anyone looking for dependable dog care in Chicago.”

“Yasmine was wonderful with my very energetic dog. Her own dog is well-behaved and serves as a great role model for other dogs. When my dog came home, he was happy, tired, and completely content, a clear sign that he had a fantastic time. She lives close to a large dog park where dogs can run, play, and burn off their energy while having the time of their lives. I feel completely comfortable leaving my dog with Yasmine and plan to do so regularly. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable sitter and excellent company for their dog.”

“10/10!!! Very friendly, was able to accommodate my last minute request. Constant photo and video updates which was very important for me, they took Simba on multiple walks and my dog clearly enjoyed his time with Kseniia and Sophia💖 Will book again with confidence”


“Ashley was absolutely amazing! She went above and beyond to make sure that my dog was comfortable with his stay at her house while I worked. She was very communicative, made sure to have full understanding of his care, and gave him lots of love! From the moment I dropped him off, I can tell she really cares about the pets she and her daughter care for, when I picked Echo up at the end of the day, he was so sad to leave! I’ll definitely be booking with Ashley again! :)”

“Samantha was great at communicating and her flexibility on pickup was super helpful! Felt very comfortable leaving my pup with her and he had a great time hanging out and playing with her and her dog as well.”

“Our puppy loved her stay with Nikki & Prat! Their communication and fun photos throughout the day helped us feel at ease that our dog was well taken care of. They have the perfect spot for a pup vacation, with a beautiful yard and plenty of space to lounge & relax. Highly recommend!”

“Timothy is our puppy’s favorite sitter (and ours too!). It’s clear he really understands and empathizes with dogs of all ages and sizes. We’ve had multiple stays at Timothy’s place, and every time our dog comes home happy, well-cared for and occasionally having made new dog friends! We especially appreciate the way he handles our rambunctious labrador puppy- calm, kind, and confident. It’s such a relief knowing she’s in good hands. We’re grateful to have found him, highly recommend!”

“Rachel and her pup took great care of Leo! She was very responsive and flexible, and Leo was comfortable with her right away. We will definitely be using her services again soon!”

About: I’ve have had cats and dogs! I will watch both as long as they get along. They’re more than welcome to stay. My older dog loves cats. She would be ecstatic to have a new cat friend. My puppy would love the exposure and friend to play with! I am currently home full times so whatever the pet needs, I am more than available to take care of them. Whether it’s walking, watching, training, medication, or just some extra snuggles. I have a constant eye on my animals and follow all the protocols and rules if we are stepping out of the house. I’m aware of where they are at all times. Being vigilant to our surroundings and how to help them distress.
“David took excellent care of our dog, Maaya, during the work day. Response from David was quick, drop off/pick up and communication with David was easy, and he sent regular updates through out the day. He also made sure to ask about food, treats, etc and kept me up to date on her breaks after the stay. Maaya is excited to return for future play dates with David and his dogs! Would highly recommend!”

“I had my dog Mildred with me while in town for a conference. Ksemia was super responsive, vey flexible, and took such great care of Mildred! Mildred took to her immediately and I got updates of all her adventures. I will definitely work with her again when I'm in Chicago!”

“Talia was the absolute best! Ruthie went to doggy day care with Talia and had the best time with Talia and her dog Bean. Talia was super communicative, responsive, and provided the best updates and pictures. We would absolutely recommend Talia and will use her again to care for Ruthie!”

“Amy provided exceptional care for Maeve during her time at daycare. Maeve had an amazing time playing with her new friend Frank, and Amy treated her with the same warmth and attention as if she were her own. I highly recommend Amy and look forward to booking with her again!”


“Diamond is an amazing sitter! She truly cares for the dogs she looks after and keeps you at ease with regular updates. My Leo came back home so tired and happy-which says everything, and he honestly didn’t even want to leave her place! Her dogs are wonderful as well and got along perfectly with mine, which made the whole experience even better. Diamond is reliable, punctual, and clearly passionate about what she does. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy sitter.”

“Nathan was amazing! He was incredibly responsive and kept us updated throughout our dog’s stay, which made the whole experience completely stress-free. Our girl was clearly well cared for and happy. We truly appreciate his professionalism and kindness. We will definitely recommend his services!”

“Yamini was amazing! She gave my pup lots of love, walks, and attention all throughout the day. She sent me pictures and kept me updated on what they were up to. It was a great experience for my first time using rover and an even better experience for my anxious pup! I will absolutely be booking with Yamini again!”

Near West Side dog parents share their Rover experiences
Odie spent four days with Katrina this week while I was at work. He had a fabulous time with her during his stay! Each day, she took him on walks, played games with him, and gave him individualized attention. She was super vigilant with him on his walks, making sure that he was using the bathroom and cleaning his paws afterwards. And she overall provided stellar and detailed updates during the day, so I didn’t have to worry one bit! Katrina has been very flexible with me, as I recently moved to the city and had a lot of schedule changes. She has been great to work with and I will definitely be using her services in the future. I HIGHLY recommend her!

Yasmine was wonderful with my very energetic dog. Her own dog is well-behaved and serves as a great role model for other dogs. When my dog came home, he was happy, tired, and completely content, a clear sign that he had a fantastic time. She lives close to a large dog park where dogs can run, play, and burn off their energy while having the time of their lives. I feel completely comfortable leaving my dog with Yasmine and plan to do so regularly. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable sitter and excellent company for their dog.

Jennifer took great care of my two dogs during their first boarding experience. As first-time boarders, I was a little nervous, but Jennifer made the whole process easy and reassuring. She kept me updated regularly with photos and videos, and always let me know how the dogs were doing. It was clear that my dogs were happy, comfortable, and well cared for throughout their stay. Jennifer is responsible, communicative, and genuinely loves animals. I really appreciated the attention and care she gave my dogs, and I would not hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommended! Thank you, Jennifer, for treating Turbo and Boomboom like your own pets! We truly appreciate everything you did for them. 🐾💙

Hollie was great! We needed a last minute sitter for a quick trip to Chicago and Hollie stepped up and was amazing. She sent plenty of photos and updates, and our dog Pancake loved her 😃 Highly recommend and would definitely use again if ever back in Chicago ⭐️⭐️

Sara and Jose take such great care of our 1 year old. I feel very at ease knowing our pup is in great hands and we’re so lucky to have them as a recurring pet sitter when I’m at work. They do a great job at making sure her daily schedule is met, maintain training, and give them lots of love and affection. My puppy loves spending time with their family and highly recommend!
