“We had Swagata watch our puppy for multiple days while at work since she wasn’t old enough to be left alone all day. Swagata was very accommodating and helpful, she sent lots of pictures and our puppy was always happy and well cared for. We will absolutely have her care for our puppy again in the future.”
“Beth is so wonderful with my cats. They are so happy when she comes! I really appreciate how reliable she is and completely trust her caring for them. I highly recommend Beth. Thank you!”
“Patient and has a good vibe all around. Happy we went with her! We feel comfortable having her with our dog. He can be a lot but she doesn’t seem shy or uncomfortable being around him.”
“Faith is fantastic. She is so attentive to detail and truly cares for animals. I am so grateful for her help this week on a last minute request. She is a life saver. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve been taking care of pets (dogs and cats) since I was in middle school. I’ve volunteered at animal shelters and helped puppy-sit dogs through the Canine Companions collegiate chapter at my university! I am also comfortable with any size pet, I’ve cared for puppies and kittens all the way up to Great Danes! I’m currently a student, but I have a lot of availability. My class load is light and I’m not on campus much so I have very flexible availability! I am good at following whatever instructions left for me relating to any of the pets’ needs. I have taken care of animals before for other as well as my own pets so I’ll make sure they’re treated well and get lots of love and care!
“Teri was an excellent catsitter and really helped put our minds at ease that our cat would be well cared for while we were away. Teri was very commutative and flexible and we appreciated the detailed daily updates about our cat. We would definitely recommended and rebook with her!”
About: I’ve grown up with a taken care of dogs my entire life. We have a lively and loving home full of two children and our 1.5 year old dog. I will make sure your dog is fed, played with, walked and loved on constantly. I am currently a med student, so I have classes from 8 am until about 2 pm and then I’m available to be home studying and taking breaks to walk and love on your pet. We have an apartment so no fenced yards here unfortunately. But we have walking trails around the complex and I would love to walk your pet around there. I have two children (2 and 7) who are ultimate animal lovers too. I have a 1.5 year old dog who loves all animals. She is very high energy but extremely sweet and non aggressive.
About: As a person I'm very friendly and responsible and capable . I've got a great demeanor which lends itself well to patiently interacting with all kinds of pets. I am experienced with pups and cats (and many other animals) of all breeds, ages, and sizes. In particular, I have a huge soft spot for young puppies and kittens they are just they cutest thing in the world. I understand that each pet is unique, special, and loved. So I will value providing individualized experiences for every animal. Whether you're looking for a one-time, long-term, as-needed, or on-demand sitter, please don't hesitate to send me a message. . I offer Rover's standard drop ins walks and house sits. Upon request I can also provide extended daytime visits
“Elizabeth was great! Plenty of photos to give the over protective cat owner confidence in our boys’ well being. She was responsive and, most importantly, a cat lover like us. We cannot recommend someone more highly!”
“Diana was wonderful with our two playful kitties over the holidays! She was always on time, was very communicative, and had great attention to detail. Most of all, I can tell she really cares for animals. I highly recommend her and would love to have her watch our kitties anytime!”
“Christy gave special care and attention to my senior dog. She was this little dog's, who had gone through many changes in a short time, first pet sitter and it went well. I will welcome Christy back and recommend her as a reliable, caring pet sitter.”
About: I have over 20 years of caring for animals of all kinds. I am very personal, caring, and will treat your animal with the love they deserve. I have a full time job Monday-Friday. I can walk your dog in the morning and play with them until I leave for work. After work we can play and enjoy what new outside adventures have in store! I have the ability to come to your home if that’s your preference. I am very schedule friendly. I have a big common area and a large park with a dog area. I’m close to a walking path or can just stay in home and play. I am very responsible and have over 20 years of experience. I have two daughters 11,8 that could help as well. They love animals.
“Brittany has been excellent as usual. She checked my cats teeth and the health of her legs. I had no idea she had arthritis in that area. If you want a nurse and fun companion for your let, Brittany is the one!”
About: I have had pets since I was 1 years old - whatever my parents let me get away with (dog, cats, fish, hamsters, gerbils, guinea pigs). As an adult I continue to own cats and dogs and currently own 2 cats. I will treat your pet as a member of my family while in my care. I nursed my cat to health from losing a kidney and he lived till he was 17yo. I nursed my geriatric dog with eye disease, arthritis until he was 14.5yo. I am more experienced with adult and geriatric pets than babies but welcome all. I am currently unemployed and seeking supplemental income. I'm also healing from CIRS/Lyme and need a walking partner to improve my health! My schedule is flexible although I do often have evening commitments with my son and his activities. My yard is large and fenced in. I live next to several walking trails and have a quiet neighborhood. I live close to a dog park and dog beach. I am familiar with crate training and administering medications.
“We recently moved into the area and started using Lindsey to drop in with our dog, Lucy, when she needs a little extra attention. Lindsey provides updates and photos, which gives us total peace of mind. She clearly loves Lucy and the other pets she provides care for. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker!!”
North Chicago cat parents share their Rover experiences
Our cat sitter Danielle was extremely professional, showed genuine care for our cat, and kept us consistently updated throughout the entire stay. We felt completely at ease knowing our cat was in such attentive and reliable hands. We would highly recommend her services and book them again!
Tiffany was amazing! She is an excellent communicator and very patient with elderly animals. I was so nervous about leaving my 16 year old cat, with stage 2 kidney disease, home alone with all the meds he takes and his ability to be stubborn about taking them. Tiffany worked so well with him and I felt at ease and able to relax and enjoy my time away. My two 2-year old girls also loved her. I HIGHLY recommend Tiffany and will use her for all my future pet sitting needs!
