“Nichole was amazing! She kept my four animals for a few days, and when I came back home, the house was clean and the pets were happy. She was communicative everyday and took great care of my pets! Would highly recommend!”

“Sarah was punctual, communicative, and so sweet with my dog. I appreciated her short turnaround response and hope to use her again soon for my frequent work trips. Highly recommended! Thank you!”

“Wow, I can not believe the great job that she did and will definitely be using her services again. I was left a little in a predicament when another sitter backed out in me just 3 days before I was supposed to be gone for a week. Denise answered my last minute plea for help and we did a meet and greet with the animals. She did a great job taking care of them and I am sure they will miss her especially Coco, who she always took on walks. I highly recommend her.”

“Leola was AMAZING!!! She was so sweet to my 2 dogs and took great care of them and my home. One of my pups had tummy issues and she was very knowledgable with that to do. She arrived right on time, send me photos and videos to ease my nerves about leaving, and was very quick to reply in our communications. I HIGHLY recommend you allow Leola to take care of your furbabies. I will ABSOLUTELY be asking her to come back soon!!”

“Matthew is wonderful as a house sitter! The pets were happy, the house was left immaculate and I would not hesitate to recommend him. Great communication as well!”

“Great service and excellent communication. My pets were very well taken care of and they even managed to make friends with my antisocial cat. They sent tons of pictures throughout the visit and stayed in constant communication. Would definitely book with them again.”

“I'm so glad I found Nev for a last minute trip. They were so thorough during our meet and greet, and my shy cat Yuki took to them immediately. I felt so secure, knowing they were with my babies all weekend! I can't wait to book them again.”

“Ana was amazing! Very communicative from the start and through out the entire stay. She sent daily updates and pictures which were much appreciated! She left the house spotless, it may have been left in better shape than when we left it. We’re so excited that we found such a fantastic sitter and we definitely plan on using her again!”

“Sara is our go to sitter for our 2 dogs. They love seeing her and she has stayed with them multiple times. We always feel very comfortable with her communication and love getting pictures everyday.”

“Ciria is absolutely incredible! She is very communicative, sweet, and reliable. I appreciate how she always keeps me updated on the kitties. Better yet, she has fun with them by giving treats, playing, and dressing them up. We came home to happy, healthy, well-loved kitties which is all you can ask for. Thank you Ciria!!”

“We recently had Samuel look after our dog in our home while we traveled for a few days. He offered a meet and greet and explained very thoroughly how he’d care for our dog. He listened and asked questions about our dog’s routine to make sure he provides the best care. While we were traveling, we received daily text messages with pictures and updates of our dog. We had a great experience working with Sam, Thank You for taking such amazing care of our dog and home. Mini really enjoyed your company! We will be in contact again!”

“Jayden did a great job housesitting my dog! She followed all my instructions and was very responsive. She made sure to send me lots of great pictures and updates. I felt very comfortable knowing my dog was in good hands.”

“Grey was an absolute delight! He consistently went above and beyond to ensure the well-being of our fur babies. He diligently took care of them, kept us informed and updated daily, and showed great consideration for our home. We would be thrilled if Grey could watch the fur babies again!”

“Jared is extremely responsible and conscientious with my kitties and I feel I can relax when I am away, knowing they are well cared for and, most especially, they are getting lots of lovin’ from Jared!”

Oak Park-Northwood pet parents share their Rover experiences
We were nervous for someone we didn’t know to pet and housesit. Steven did two visits with us and our pets to make sure we all felt comfortable. Upon returning home from vacation, our pets were happy to see us but they didn’t seem overly excited or stressed. This was a good sign that our pets were relaxed with Steven while we were away. We will be asking Steven to sit for us again in the future. Very happy with his care of our pets and home.
