“Second time Venus takes care of our dog Oreo and she’s always amazing! I really appreciate how she keeps me updated and makes sure he’s doing great.”
“Sarah was great. She took very good care of my dog and cat and kept me updated with photos and recaps of their activities. She obviously loves animals and I felt my boys were very safe in her care--I recommend her highly.”
“This was our first time leaving our pup for more than a few days and needless to say we were only a little tightly wound about it. But Shirley made us feel like we could breathe on our travels and actually be present in the moments. Not only did she keep him loved and cared for, but she was the ultimate documentarian, showering us with plenty of pics and videos to never feel left out. I would highly recommend Shirley for any pet care taking needs, and would love to have her watch Kaito again.”
“Angel did a great job with my baby and sent lots of pictures which I appreciated! I also like that she generally keeps smaller dogs around my pup’s size.”

“John did a great job with our 125lb Bernese Mtn Dog, Georgia. From the pictures we received every day, it was clear Georgia was getting a lot of love and attention. She had a fenced in back yard and a very friendly playmate. We definitely plan to use John again!”
“Cheryl is an excellent sitter. Our dog Rambo is always excited to go and spend time with her. It is clear that she loves animals and we are grateful to have found her. Cheryl is our preferred choice for our pet sitting and boarding needs.”
“Jenny is a fantastic dog sitter! We were a bit nervous to leave our 6 month old puppy when we went out of town. But Jenny took fantastic care of her. Jenny gave her lots of love, attention, and exercise. We would definitely re-book with Jenny in the future!”
“Ángela was exceptional with Toby! She was flexible with drop off/pick up arrangements and kept us updated with pictures. Toby enjoyed time outdoors as well as pets and cuddles during his stay. We will definitely be reaching back out to Angela for future stays!!!”
“Jeff was great! He sent updates with photos and responds to messages right away. Jax must have had a really good time because he went right to sleep as soon as we got home!”
“Brian was great. We had some anxiety leaving our dog in an unfamiliar place but Brian was wonderful with him and put our minds at ease. He asked questions and took notes on everything we told him during the meet and greet. He gave updates throughout our trip to show our dog was enjoying. We will definitely be using Brian again.”
“Ariel communicated providing me peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that Justin was happy and comfortable, which made me feel completely at ease!”
“Corey and Robert took such good care of our 9 month old cockapoo, Huckleberry! From the start, it was clear that Corey was so professional and caring. We had an initial video interview and she asked all the right questions. And the house and backyard were perfect! Once Huck was at her house, she kept in touch so much, and we watched as our shy little guy came out of his shell! She even took the crate apart and had it all set for us when we came to pick him up. Also, they live so close to O'Hare, it was so convenient to pick up and drop off. We couldn't be happier w Corey and her house and adorable Yorkie Bosco and...everything. We will be back!”
“Joe is an incredible dog sitter. Very attentive and great at communicating throughout the duration of our dog’s stay. We only want to use Joe in the future.”
“I recently used Jonathan and Casey for my 10 year old boy Rizzo. It was the first time I used somebody outside of family. I was terrified because I was leaving the state for 5 days. They were so compassionate with answering my texts and sending me photos!!! They took such good care of my boy with love and cuddles. He was aloud to be on the couch with them and he also had friends to play with… I highly recommend because they are true fur baby lovers!!! I will definitely use them again! Thank you Jonathan and Casey!!! 🥰”
“OMG!!! Connie was the best -mom away from home- I could ask for!!! Juiji and Jojo were so cute. Connie made sure Juiji was comfortable and that I was sure she was safe, behaving, and co-mingling. Her photos of Juiji should be in a doggy magazine! I could not have asked for a better -mom away from home- and she's the best and she's around the corner from me. So grateful for her!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND CONNIE?♥️??”
“Jonelle is an absolute professional and very passionate about her work. She checked in regularly with a brief description of daily activities, and provided pics & videos of my pups during their extended stay. Response time was exceptional and was available every time I reached out. My dogs mean the world to me and I was able to enjoy my time away without worry of their care or well being. If you are looking for someone that’s dependable and efficient, Jonelle is definitely someone to consider without any hesitation. HIGHLY recommend. A simple thank you would not come close to expressing my gratitude.”
“Heather was absolutely wonderful. I felt so comfortable and at ease knowing my doggo was in such great hands. She sent photos throughout the day, lots of walks, and even a field trip to the nature preserve. I absolutely trust Heather to take great care of my dog and will definitely book with her again. Highly recommend!”

Northlake dog parents share their Rover experiences
This was the first time I have left my puppy overnight and the first time ever using Rover.com. Mark C. and his family were fantastic! I knew as soon as I dropped my puppy off he'd be in great hands. I received pictures throughout the evening and had great peace of mind. He and his family played with him both inside and outside, and took perfect care of him. I'm not sure who had more fun on this fur mom's first night out on her own, me or my dog 😂 I highly recommend Mark C. and plan on using him in the future.
So grateful to have found Shannon, Nick and family to watch our dog! They were so accommodating, warm and friendly and took him on frequent walks! Also sent lots of pics! I feel so comfortable leaving him with them again. Thank you!
So this was our very first time using the Rover app and services. Ms. Cheryl is one of the best pet sitters ever! She did an amazing job with making sure our Rocky was well-cared-for. She sent pictures and updates and any questions she had, she sent them to us before doing anything that could cause Rocky any stress. She also gave us grape tips ,advice and suggestions for how to better care for Rocky as a husky breed. She gave us such a great experience that we will definitely use her in the future. Ms. Cheryl, you rock!
Ángela was exceptional with Toby! She was flexible with drop off/pick up arrangements and kept us updated with pictures. Toby enjoyed time outdoors as well as pets and cuddles during his stay. We will definitely be reaching back out to Angela for future stays!!!
Thanks for taking great care of Jack today during thunderstorms. We feel at ease knowing you hang out with Jack and distract him with treats during these scary times!
Odalys was so sweet and loving with our baby! She communicated well, sent frequent updates with pictures and videos and was very helpful and accommodating. Arthur was right at home with her and although happy to see me when she dropped him off, he was sad to see her go. That says it all!
Rosa was super attentive with Ramses’ needs. She provided pics regularly and timely. Will defined book again with her!
