“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.”
“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!”
“Ella was great. Highly communicative. Kept me with updates. Confirmed her understanding of the dog’s health instructions. Overall, she was a great sitter and companion for my pup. Highly recommend!”
“Clover took amazing care of our dogs and house. It was the first time in six years we have left our dogs with a sitter. She kept us updated with how the dogs were and sent pictures. We would boon Clover anytime to take care of our pups again.”
“Hunter is great and my dogs love him. I would highly recommend hunter for anyone that is looking for house sitting. This is ideal for our dogs because they are used to someone being home with them most of the time and at night so I can go on vacation and not worry that my fur babies are stressed rather I know they are in good hands and having a fun time with Hunter!”
“Morgan was fantastic with my girl Jovi over the holidays! She was very accommodating about a few unexpected requests I had to make last minute, sent pics throughout her stay that showed Jovi was super comfortable & content with her, and left my place exactly as she found it. Will definitely rebook!”
“Allie was great with our dogs and highly recommend her! We have a medically complex Great Dane who requires daily medication and frequent potty breaks. Allie was very attentive to her needs and all of our dogs appeared so happy and well cared for when we arrived home.”
“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 🐾”
“We highly recommend Dylan’s services, especially if you have pets that need special attention and/or you require house-sitting services. Dylan went above and beyond to care for our dogs and our home! Because one of our dogs—a deaf, senior, Boston Terrier w/multiple health issues—is particularly high maintenance and we were to depart quite early in the morning, Dylan was amenable to coming to our home in advance for a meet and greet and to get up to speed w/atypical feeding and fairly extensive medication, our household needs, etc. We really appreciated his willingness on that count! During our 5 day trip, Dylan remained very attentive to our dogs and their needs and sent many photos to document. He was quick to respond when we checked in but did not hesitate to also let us know if he observed anything out of the ordinary. We received loads of pictures each day to let us know all was well. Since Dylan’s primary work is remote, he was able to be onsite with our dogs and our home not only overnight but much of each day as well. Between multiple walks each day, Dylan retrieved packages and mail, watered outdoor plants and more. Then Dylan again went above and beyond for our return. Our quite late return flight meant we didn’t return home until midnight. Dylan was more than accommodating. Upon our return we found happy, well-cared for dogs and our home in as good or better condition than when we left.”
“Raylon is a wonderful sitter! He has stayed with my pup multiple times over the past year and Bagel is always happy when I get home. He takes him on walks and sends pictures and updates!”
“As always Holly was awesome! She worked around our schedule with ease and went above and beyond taking care of our pups! We recently added a new 7 month old puppy to the family and she took amazing care of both dogs! Will definitely be using Holly’s services again!”
“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”
“Lisa did a great job taking care of our pups! Our babies were brushed and walked twice daily. She also sent us daily “pupdates” so we can know how they did for the day including how much of their food was eaten and their behavior throughout the day. Our dogs were so happy with her and we would definitely have her again!”
“Kelsey was the best dog sitter!! I felt so relieved and could relax on my trip knowing my Goldie was in good hands!! She kept me updated on her and would send photos! She also went above and beyond and watered my plants, fed my child’s frog and did the laundry and dishes!! We will definitely use her again!”
“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!”

Oak Lawn pet parents share their Rover experiences
Tyler did a great job looking after Bogart. He was fed on time, his meds were given on time, he was walked when he was supposed to. I was given continuous updates which I greatly appreciated. I trust Tyler with my pet and would absolutely recommend him to others for pet sitting!
Madison was great watching our dogs while we were out of town for a long weekend. She made a visit for a consultation before the service to familiarize with the house and dogs and sent us a few updates while we were gone. Would recommend Madison and hope to work with her again in the future!
Alexis is an incredible sitter! She took amazing care of both of my dogs and made sure they were happy, comfortable, and well-loved while I was away. She kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It’s clear she truly cares about the pets she watches.
We booked Dykan for the first time for a long weekend away for house sitting. He volunteered to meet us and our two dogs before the booking to make sure we had a match which was greatly appreciated! Dylan is highly responsive, always providing updates, photos and videos throughout the day and night. Not only did he take incredible care of our fur babies, he also cleaned up everything that he used, from towels to toilet! We’ve already booked him again for our next trip. Thanks Dylan!
Ashley was great! My dogs love her, and I felt comfortable with her in my home – – so much so that I was able to enjoy my vacation and not worry at all. She took great care of them, with lots of walks, and my house was spotless when I came home too! I’ll definitely use her again and give her the highest recommendation.
Johanna is fantastic! She stayed at our house with our girls, and played with them and walked them on a daily basis. She also helped keep our house tidy, and was very communicative while we were away. Johanna has worked with many different pups at dog shelters, so she is equipped to handle many different breeds and sizes. We highly recommend working with Johanna to keep your puppies safe and happy!
I couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter than Olivia! She stayed in my home while I was away and went above and beyond in every way. Not only did she take excellent care of my dog and 9-week-old kitten—who don’t always get along—but she also managed their interactions with care and professionalism, ensuring each pet received individual attention, love, and mental enrichment. She maintained their schedule perfectly and kept my home in great condition. I especially appreciated how attentive and communicative she was throughout—always keeping me updated and giving me peace of mind. It’s clear Olivia truly cares, and I would trust her again in a heartbeat. Highly recommended!
Susana was wonderful! We needed a last minute sitter and she was super quick to respond. Our two pups warmed up to her and she made sure to keep us updated with lots of photos. Her communication and care were tremendous! The house was also very clean when we arrived back. We would highly recommend Susana and hope to work with her again!
5 stars all the way! Nicole was great with my dogs. She sure to send lots of updates and photos, went above and beyond with little things like brushing them and helping to keep the vacuum running to pick up all the dog fur. Would definitely recommend and hope to book again!
Allison was awesome! She came to meet our dog the day before to establish contact and make sure he’d be more relaxed the day of, which we appreciate due to his separation anxiety. She updated us with pictures while she took care of him. She’s very professional and just good vibes overall! We’ll definitely be using her again!
Audette took excellent care of our babies! Our baby kitty, Scout, had only been with us a week so was needing a bit more attention than our senior cat, Styx. She did a great job getting them to play together, eat together, and making them feel loved. We will definitely be utilizing her skills again!!
