“Lorraine is wonderful! So kind and loving to Aspen. Communication is excellent and she is very dependable. Aspen feels very comfortable at her home. Thank you Lorraine, I appreciate you!!”
“Thank you for having Addison over for a play date! Emily was easy to communicate with, accommodating to my schedule and send frequent status updates! Addison took a post play day nap within 10 mins of being home!”
“Louie had a fun visit to Michelle's house and was able to play with two other dogs. Her son was home and took them all for a walk and shared pictures. It was exactly what I was looking for, a great way for my dog to be social with others, in an open safe place. This was my first use of Rover, and I'm glad it was with Michelle.”
“Christine was our life saver when we visited Chicago. It was a last minute booking and she accommodated us quickly. She loved our fur baby! Our Rollo had a blast with her and her beautiful cats ♥️ Thank you, Christine! We appreciate your love and care for fur babies.”
“Dayana was a great dogsitter to our puppy Honey. She sent pictures and videos throughout the day of Honey having fun and being taken on walks, and she was very nice and communicative. I will definitely be reaching back out for more dog sitting with Dayana!”
“Our pup loves going to Erica and Ricardo’s for daycare. She’s an anxious girl, but she gets so excited when we pull up and runs into the house as soon as we get there. She gets lots of playtime and love, and we get cute pictures and updates. Would definitely recommend them!”
About: I have raised and cared for dogs and cats my entire life, all sizes and ages, several with serious medical needs. As a child, my family bred and raised Irish Setters and kept any pup that was not 100% healthy for adoption. Therefore I have experience with all aspects of pet care and I have raised my kids to do the same. We are Tara (49yr), Jaden (15yr) and Alia (12yr) and have been dog sitting for friends and family for years and really enjoy hosting pups to play with and pamper on the weekends since unfortunately we are not home enough during the week to provide adequate care and attention to a full time pup. Our three kitties are very accustomed to dogs but we have plenty of room to separate them if they overstimulate your doggy. Our three level home, plus large back yard, will give your pup plenty of room to play inside and out! We typically run and play in the backyard during potty breaks and go out for several walks a day. The yard is only 90% fenced so I have several 50ft leashes around the yard to provide the illusion of freedom while maintaining safety. If your pup is high energy, they can also play with the neighbor’s dogs or we can take a trip to the dog park so they can socialize and run with other pups. I assure you they will get lots of cuddles and attention and I will send photos and vids of your pup to you throughout their stay! I am available for boarding in my home on the weekends, beginning Friday evening through Monday morning. I can also board at your home from Saturday morning through Sunday evening. I will treat your pet like a member of the family! If they get muddy in the backyard I have no problem giving them a bath and brushing them. They are welcome on the furniture and will not be left alone while they are in my care.
“Mary was communicative, convenient and put my mind at ease as we were in the city for the weekend and our hotel couldn’t accommodate for a late check out to house our pup, Teddy. 🤍 Our niece had a soccer game at Seat Geek stadium in 90 degree October weather and Mary solved our quandary and was as warm and inviting as the unseasonable weather. Highly recommend!”
“Samuel was excellent with my girls. He kept me updated with their activities. He sent me many pictures and my girls were having a great time. I will be using Samuel more often. Thank you, Samuel.”
“Jenny was great! My dog has anxiety and she made her feel comfortable and took care of her with walks and was careful to avoid the other neighborhood dogs as requested. Will definitely use Jenny’s services in the future.”
“Karen was wonderful. Her house is so clean and beautiful, and the yard is secure and well maintained. She was very kind and cared for my pup like a pro! I really appreciated the pictures and updates she sent throughout the day. Absolutely recommend Karen!”
“Marissa went above and beyond taking care of Theo! She took him on a 3 mile walk, sent lots of pics, and was understanding about a late pickup. Thanks Marissa!”
“Rhae was very responsive, kept me updated during my dogs' stay, my dogs seemed happy! She took the time to walk them a few times while they were there just for the day. Very easy to work with, definitely recommend.”
About: I’ve always had dogs & as we all know love and enjoy the beauty they bring to our lives. I lost a pet in 2023 and know the anxiety and stress that can come from leaving your pets with someone new. I promise to love and care for them as they are my own. Happy to send lots of photos and videos as well! I work remotely full-time so I’ll have plenty of time to give your pet lots of love and attention! I am able to take pets any day during the week and on Saturdays. I have a fenced in yard for plenty of outdoor play, and a great walkable neighborhood. I have my own miniature dachshund (Opie) & German shepherd (Jax) who are the best of friends and love to play! Happy to provide bathing, and blow drying at request.
North Riverside dog parents share their Rover experiences
Aaron was so helpful with watching our dog before our son’s birthday party! He was professional, friendly, and clearly a dog person (has a great calm energy around our pup). She warmed right up to him and I was grateful he was thoughtful enough to swing by and grab her day of vs us having to take her to him. We would def recommend Aaron and are looking forward to using him in the future!
As a nurse I work 12 hour shifts, and I had to work 5 days in a row. Needless to say I was depleted and stressed. It meant so much to me to know Haku was getting the attention and love he deserves. Every day when he came home, he had already pottied and was ready for bed! Samantha and her family are wonderful, I am so grateful
Christine was our life saver when we visited Chicago. It was a last minute booking and she accommodated us quickly. She loved our fur baby! Our Rollo had a blast with her and her beautiful cats ♥️ Thank you, Christine! We appreciate your love and care for fur babies.
Daisy absolutely loved her time with Marissa. I am extremely grateful for how communicative and thorough Marissa was with her time with Daisy. We did a daycare stay while we were having a large party and Marissa’s warm and kind energy gave us such ease about leaving Daisy with her. She gave Daisy two big walks and took lots of pictures. She understood the delicacies of introducing dogs to each other and made Daisy’s stay relaxing, fun, and stress free. I’m grateful for all the photos and the garmin map/route posts too. We will definitely be calling Marissa again!
