“Ella did an amazing job house sitting for me this weekend! She was responsible, communicative, and left my home in perfect condition. I felt completely at ease knowing my pets were in her care. Highly recommend her!”


“Emily is a superstar! My 5mos old puppy has separation anxiety — and Emily went above & beyond to make him feel safe and comfortable. She sent pics and updates —And he looked so happy, which in turn helped this Puppy Mom feel secure. Leo was in the best hands! TY EMILY ❤️”


“LAINA was a God-send for me this past week. Truly, she made me feel comfortable knowing that my PIXIE DUST 🐾 would not be alone while I was away. She was respectful in my home, she was phenomenal with my dog, and she was considerate in sending me photos and videos on the daily. Welcome to our family, Laina. I will trust only you with caring for my Furry Best Friend 🐾”


“Ashley took great care of our cat while we were away for several days! Our cat requires oral medication which she was able to give him easily. When our flights were delayed she was extremely flexible and helpful to make sure our cat was still cared for. Will definitely rebook in the future.”


“So thankful to have found Denise! She is responsive, responsible, and knowledgeable. My cat requires daily medications and subcutaneous fluids which Denise was able to administer without incident. I have so much peace of mind having a sitter who I can trust!”


“Allison did a great job house sitting and taking care of our newly fostered German Shepherd, Mabel! It was nice to have my mind at ease while I was away for the day knowing she was with Allie! Allie was very communicative and willing to do whatever to make me and Mabel comfortable :)”



“Arika became fast friends with my dog, Phoebe. I felt completely at ease leaving Phoebe with her for the weekend and having Arika stay in my home. She sent lots of pictures, which was so appreciated. And she spent the majority of the time at home with her so Phoebe had someone to cuddle and play with. Thank you, Arika. I would definitely recommend Arika as a dog sitter and will be requesting her again.”


“Addison is great with Brody! She sent regular updates and catered to our every need. When I got back it was as if I had never left ☺️☺️ my pup was even keeled and taken care of. I would recommend to anyone looking for a loving and trustworthy sitter! 🥰”


“Lauren was absolutely AMAZING with my two pups. She was very communicative and very easy to work with. She was very tidy and took amazing care of my dogs while I was away. She made it so easy for my husband and I not to worry whatsoever about the care of our dogs and our home. I would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone looking for in home sitting or any type of dog care. My husband and I travel often and I have to say that she has been the best sitter we have had since getting our 2 dogs. 10/10 would recommend”


“Holly was absolutely amazing with my two pups. She was so caring and my anxious boy warmed right up to her. She sent photos and updates while I was away which I really appreciated! I will be using Holly any time I am in the area and need a loving sitter for my pups.”


“Dylan was a wonderful house sitter and dog sitter. We have a very active dog, and Dylan took great care of his needs, took him on long walks, and sent regular updates with photos. He also took great care of our house, and was very communicative, and we were at ease knowing he was there to watch over our space.”


“Leaving this review will probably come back to bite me because it’ll mean he won’t be available when we need him next time. Hunter was an exceptional house sitter! He took fantastic care of our whole household of pets—two dogs, four cats, a Conure, a tortoise, and fish—and sent daily photo updates that gave us total peace of mind. He also went above and beyond by taking out the trash, washing dishes, and even laundering his sheets before leaving. Truly, the only “complaint” we had was that one of the cat’s bowls was only partially full when we got home, which was filled earlier in the day. Our experience was remarkable given everything else he managed so well. We’d welcome him back and highly recommend him to anyone needing a reliable and thoughtful sitter.”


“Emma was fantastic with Benny (and me!). She was responsive, understanding of his particular needs (separation anxiety, medication), and gave consistent updates and pictures. She left the apartment clean. Would hire every time if her schedule allowed! Thanks Emma.”


“Alexis is amazing! She’s watched our Jax multiple times now. She’s very tentative with him and keeps us updated with messages and pictures while we’re away. Jax couldn’t ask for a better sitter!”


“Lisa has the sweetest soul, and my dogs just naturally gravitate towards her. I left for 3 days and did not worry once because of how detailed and thorough Lisa was with all of her updates, including pictures and videos of the doggos. They were in great hands and were so happy to go on long walks multiple times a day. One of my dogs even needed to be hand-fed because she is a princess like that, and Lisa hand-fed her food like a champ! The other dog has stomach and joint issues so is on a very strict (and complicated) diet, but Lisa followed all instructions to the T, and I am just so thankful for her. Thank you for being the best dog sitter a girl can ask for, Lisa!”


“Kelsey is the absolute best! It was my first time using Rover so I was a little nervous, but she made everything super easy. My Sadie girl had a great time while I was away and I’ve been recommending Kelsey to anyone who needs an animal sitter.”


“Kendall did such a great job watching my pup and home while I was away. She provided regular updates and photos so I felt super confident knowing that my dog was happy and well taken care of. Can't wait to book with her again soon!”


“Isaac took good care of Luna while I was away on a week long trip. He sent lots of updates and spent time playing with and walking her at home and around the apartment. He also quickly responded and agreed to drop in a final time after I told him I had a flight delay and would be coming home later than expected. Thanks for your help! Looking forward to booking with you next time I travel.”

Oak Lawn pet parents share their Rover experiences
Leaving this review will probably come back to bite me because it’ll mean he won’t be available when we need him next time. Hunter was an exceptional house sitter! He took fantastic care of our whole household of pets—two dogs, four cats, a Conure, a tortoise, and fish—and sent daily photo updates that gave us total peace of mind. He also went above and beyond by taking out the trash, washing dishes, and even laundering his sheets before leaving. Truly, the only “complaint” we had was that one of the cat’s bowls was only partially full when we got home, which was filled earlier in the day. Our experience was remarkable given everything else he managed so well. We’d welcome him back and highly recommend him to anyone needing a reliable and thoughtful sitter.

Allie was amazing with our highly reactive and fearful pitty mix rescue and the rest of our fur crew (total 2 dogs, 2 cats). Pablo is a sweetheart with us but doesn’t do well with new people unless introduced the right way. She took the time to get to know Pablo and gain his trust and we couldn’t be more grateful! He’s not the easiest dog and has very specific behavior management needs. We were very impressed with how dedicated Allie was to learning how to properly and safely care for him. Allie is a highly capable, confident and attentive sitter with a calming presence. We’d recommend her to anyone, including those with special needs animals and reactive pups like us.

Anastasia was amazing with our puppy and her puppy quirks! She spent lots of tine with her making sure she had playtime, walks, and puzzles! Despite our puppy taking up lots of attention, Anastasia also ensured our cat got tons of attention as well. Our home was clean upon our return and both pets were happy and healthy!

We can’t say enough wonderful things about Lisa! From the moment we left, we felt completely at ease knowing our dogs, bunny, and home were in such caring hands. She went above and beyond—sending daily updates and photos that truly brightened our days and reassured us that everyone was happy and well cared for. Our dogs were clearly loved and pampered, and our bunny got special attention too, which isn’t always easy to find. The house was spotless when we returned, and it was obvious she treated our home with the same care and respect she gave our pets. It’s such a relief to find someone so trustworthy, responsible, and genuinely kind. We would recommend her to anyone without hesitation and can’t wait to book her again for our next trip!

Emma was fantastic with Benny (and me!). She was responsive, understanding of his particular needs (separation anxiety, medication), and gave consistent updates and pictures. She left the apartment clean. Would hire every time if her schedule allowed! Thanks Emma.

Diego was AMAZING with my dog Pierce while I was away on a business trip (aka not-so-fun adulting). Meanwhile, Pierce was clearly living his best life—walks, snuggles, and the full VIP treatment. Diego even let him sleep in bed like the little diva he is, which Pierce absolutely expects. I got daily updates and the cutest pics, and came home to a happy pup and spotless home. Total peace of mind. 1000% would book again—Pierce is already packing his overnight bag!

Ashley did a great job taking care of Winnie. When Winnie had a small issue she identified it quickly and proposed a solution that worked. She kept us informed with photos everyday. The house was in perfect condition when we came home. Would definitely recommend her.
