“Monica was so wonderful! I appreciated the photos and updates when my cat was given her medicine. She treated all my pets so well. I wasn’t stressed at all during my trip for once. Definitely will book with her the next time I take a trip!!”
About: I’ve shared my life with dogs for as long as I can remember — from energetic puppies to mellow seniors. I have worked with dogs of different temperaments and am happy to accommodate anything that makes your pup feel safe and confident. I understand their different personalities, routines, and little quirks that make each one special. Whether your pup needs long walks, energetic playtime, or calm company while you’re away, I’ll make sure they feel happy, safe, and loved. Think of me as their second-best friend when you can’t be there! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I have ample time and love spending it with animals. I’m flexible throughout the day, so I can give pets the attention, walks, feeding, and playtime they need without rushing. Caring for animals is something I truly enjoy, so I make it a priority in my schedule every day and week. I am happy to work with you for what suits your needs! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure they feel safe and comfortable in their familiar environment. I follow each pet’s usual routine for feeding, walks, playtime, and any special care instructions. I give them plenty of attention and affection, and I always keep the home tidy and secure during my visits. I also send regular updates and photos so pet parents can feel at ease knowing their pets are happy and well cared for while they’re away.
“Joanna was amazing. My pups loved her and she went above and beyond to care for them. I felt rest assured they were in good hands while I was out of town. I highly recommend her and I will be having her come again in the future.”
“Jo is just a great person. Period. She always goes above and beyond in caring for and entertaining our dogs, whether it’s bringing over her best enrichment toys or finding our dog’s favorite Real Housewives franchise to watch together. For this house sitting, Jo watched our newer puppy for the first time. He can be vocally reactive on walks and has some unique methods for managing his behavior. For Jo, it was no sweat. And during this house stay, my husband and I happened to be in Puerto Vallarta during the recent cartel rampage. Not only did Jo make sure that our doggos would be cared for regardless of when we made it back to the States, but she also made a genuine effort to check in on our general well-being. Like I said, she’s just a great person.”
“Our dogs love Andrea so much! She takes such good care of them when we're gone. She's the best! We will always want Andrea to watch our boys for us every time we go on a trip!”
“Very prompt, adjustable as to your preferences, considerate of your pet’s needs, and many video and photo updates :) Nach enjoyed his babysitter and would definitely book again and recommend Lauren.”
“Hanna is a treat to have as our pet sitter! She was great with our babies and very respectful of our space. We came home to a clean house and calm, happy pets which is truly a gift. 🩷”
“Took a 10 day long trip and was blessed to feel completely at ease knowing my babies were well cared for. Stephanie sent messages and videos to update us on the stay so we were always in the loop. Definitely recommend!”
“Kelso house-and-dogsat for our 3 hounds for 4 nights and was a pleasure to work with. We got updates and photos, and we didn’t have to worry about things at all, which is exactly what we wanted! Will use them again.”
“We had an amazing experience with Megan! She stayed at our house for a week with our two dogs and took incredible care of everything! She sent updates and it was easy to see how happy my dogs were with her. It was such a relief to trust that she had everything taken care of back home while I was out of town, I highly recommend her!”
“Our pup was in good hands with Renee. We have an anxious dog who doesn't do well with boarding, so it was essential to find someone to stay with her in our home. Renee took good care of her and the house, and provided lots of updates for us so that we could enjoy vacation knowing all was well back home. I would recommend her without reservation.”
“Mary took care of our dog at our house for 2 weeks around the holidays (while we were out of the country) and she was great! Our dog is a weirdo and Mary was patient and attentive to his quirkiness, as well as patient and friendly with our many texts to check in and make sure all was well. She sent the occasional photo and updated us throughout the time we were away. We will gladly have Mary stay again--thanks so much!”
About: Hi there! My name is Nicky (he/they) and I’ve been taking care of pets for my neighbors, friends, and family members for upwards of a decade and am commonly regarded as the go-to sitter in my community. I strive to treat every pet (and owner) with the utmost respect and kindness, and I’ll follow your instructions to a T! (The T stands for toe beans 🤓) Currently unemployed due to layoffs in my industry, so I’ll be able to give your fur bestie as much attention as possible! I can do overnights, multiple nights in a row, or just a drop-in/walk; whatever you need - I got you! :) I have a fenced yard in front of my apartment complex so your fur bestie can run free and tire themselves out before beddybye! I can crate your pup if you provide one or they can get some shut-eye on the couch or wherever they’re comfy!
“Stephanie takes great care of Lilah Blue -- he levelheadedness and great communication is especially appreciated when things go a little sideways (thanks to Lilah's obsession with squirrels/rabbits.)”
“Emma took such great care of our Bertie girl! We got updates, pictures and videos during our vacation, and our doggy was so well taken care of while we were away. Thank you Emma!”
“After moving our very needy German Shepherd from Australia to Chicago and having no local support to care for him, the notion of a 2 week trip back home was impossible. The stress at the idea of leaving our boy with a stranger was enormous, especially since we had never done anything like that before. We left our boy, and our home, in Adams care for 15 days. Upon our return, we found a beautiful clean home and a very happy doggo, who seemed to love his new friend more than us! Adam sent regular photos and text updates as to how things were going which helped greatly relieving our worry while abroad. We are thrilled to have found him, and will very happily use him again soon so we can finally take a holiday and know we're leaving our pup in great hands. Thankyou again Adam!”
Norwood Park pet parents share their Rover experiences
Jo was incredible with our dog Shiloh this weekend. We were able to fully relax on our trip knowing she was in good hands. Jo sent tons of photo and video updates of their time together and even adjusted her own plans when our dog had an upset stomach one night. She also spent some time working with our dog on bark training 😊 Can’t say enough good things!
Joanna did a marvelous job taking care of our English Bulldog Belle. We returned to find a very happy well cared for and healthy dog. Joanna's attention to detail and conscientiousness gave us the peace of mind to enjoy our vacation with the knowledge that our Belle and home were in good hands.
Mirella was so amazing! She helped us out last minute after plans changed and I could not be more grateful. She was so great with my sometimes nervous dog and took great care of our home while we were gone while keeping us updated on how things were going. Thank you so much!!
We just got back from a week long vacation and I cannot tell you how relieved I was that Liz was with our pups. She was able to handle their vast personalities and medical needs effortlessly. We have a very skittish rescue who I was worried about the most. Much to my relief I came home to a very happy puppy...I think she not so secretly misses Liz. She sent us lots of photos and funny stories about the girls. It really helped put me at ease. Thank you again Liz, I feel so much better about the idea of vacations now that I know I have someone I can leave the girls with who will care for them like they are their own.
Stephanie is truly exceptional. This was our first time entrusting all four of our pets and our home to someone else, and she exceeded every expectation. From the very first interaction through the entire stay, she was consistently available, highly responsive, and incredibly thorough with her updates. What impressed us most was how quickly our pets felt at ease—something that speaks volumes about her care, attention, and natural connection with animals. She earned not only their trust, but ours as well. Stephanie delivers a level of professionalism and peace of mind that is simply outstanding. We cannot recommend her highly enough, and we will absolutely check her availability before planning any future trips.
I am sorry I waited a week before leaving this review; it took me a week to settle back into my life and to observe my dog, Clyde, after I had left him in the care of another sitter and Nicholas for four days each. My primary goal in booking through Rover was to ensure the care of Clyde. I am very pleased with Clyde's condition and energy in the week I have been home. As his care was split between two sitters, I would have to say that both gave him the attention and care that he needed. My other goal was the care of my house which, I believe, was also excellent. Highest marks to Marny and to my other sitter.
Iselle took wonderful care of our cats Cooper and Lucy! She was with them for an extended period of time (approx 10 days) and was communicative, thoughtful, and responsible. Our cats had a blast and always appreciated seeing the photos Iselle sent. She also took great care of our home and was very clean. We will absolutely be booking with Iselle again!
