“Heather is always an absolute delight to have watch our two dogs. They are so excited to see her, even though they are picky with their people! She spends extra time and gives them so much love.”
“Ann was great with our cats. We appreciated her quick communication, professionalism, and prompt updates. Also, thank you for bringing in our packages!! Our shmittens aren’t the friendliest but Ann even got some pets in. We are grateful we found Ann!”
“Nicholas did a great job looking after my cat. She was always very shy and he would make sure to find where she was which would sometimes take a bit longer as she found new hiding spots. He completed all tasks that I asked of him. He was always on time and very professional.”
“Ray is an excellent guy. He's always available and I trust him 100% with my dog. I went on a trip to Panama City for 4 days and he took care of my pup. He asked all the right questions. Took notes and took my dog to some great places and sent me pics all the time. Don't hesitate to book Ray if you have the opportunity!!!”
“Samantha did a wonderful job dropping in to check on my dog when my usual help was not available. My dog was a little wary at fist but Samantha was great and made her feel comfortable. If I need services in the future for my dog, I will definitely reach out to see if she's available.”
“Kelly is amazing and so good with my pup! She is so kind and flexible and would highly recommend her if you are looking for someone to take care of your fur babies!”
“Karina is very communicative and took good care of our cat, who can be skeptical of strangers. But she accepted Karina really quickly. From the video and picture shared with us, you can tell Karina knows how to approach animals and makes our cat comfortable with her. We appreciate Karina keeping our cat company while we are away.”
“We recently went out of town for the first time since adopting our kittens and were so worried about leaving them. Chris was so attentive and made sure to send us detailed updates and photos. She followed our instructions without any issues and our house was in perfect order when we got back. Her care and attention was next level and we will definitely be asking her to cat sit again.”
“Absolutely awesome! Great about communication, very friendly and did everything I asked! Highly recommend. Even worked on training a trick I couldn't get down! I will definitely choose Micheal again when I need some check-ins.”
“We are very pleased with our first drop in with Jackie. Our dog is very anxious around all people and Jackie understood Nabi’s special needs, was on time and very communicative! We will be requesting more drop-ins with Jackie!”
About: I've taken care of dogs and cats for friends and family since age 8, having been trusted to feed, wash, and play with dogs- I know my way around a dog park or two. ;) I also have house sat for dog owners before as well, so I am always observant and able to make sure your pup feels right at home, and your home stays looking best in show! I currently have open availability, with tons of time to play with and entertain your pups! I am able to house sit as well, if given a minimum of 3 days in advance! While I cannot board fur babies at my house, I am more than able to monitor and play with your furry friends at your home (and on walks of course!), as well as follow any certain rules or procedures one may have for their best furry friend!
About: One of my favorite things are dogs which are number one in my book. I have lots of experience being around any sized dog, grew up around lots of them I am currently doing Rover and UberEats. I’m a mom of a 8mo. I will be available technically whenever you need me to walk or watch your little fur babies. We have our own little fur baby here so your dog can have a play partner. Also my fur baby is trained and loves to play
About: Hello there! My name is Alyssa Murphy, Aly for short. I myself, have been a dog owner of an adorable malti-pin named Cobi, for 9 years now. I have also owned two cats beforehand and raised abandoned kittens to health, ensuring they were going to proper homes that would appreciate and take care of them. How does this relate to you? Well, I will guarantee to be that same type of home I would of chose for those rescued kittens. That home-away-from-home for your pup, the home I would look for if I needed a dog sitter. No matter if he/she likes to jump around and play, or just likes to relax on the couch, I’m the girl for the job. Your pup will feel highly appreciated and taken care of at the end of the day, and so will you! Any inquires, please feel free to message. P.S. here’s my promo code :) : ALYSSM29530 *I also know how important it is to remain safe and clean during these times, I will make sure to clean and disinfect everything in my home your dog(s) will encounter.* I’m currently working full time and have part time classes online, so I have a few free days (Thursday afternoons, all day Fridays, Saturday nights and all day Sunday-Monday) to take care of your best friend! My house is always kept clean and tidy. Since I have a dog myself (that likes to get into things) there isn’t much left out for him to grab. I live on my own, so I can also adjust according to your pet. I’m always willing to play, walk, and give attention as much as needed/wanted!
“Coleen was awesome with our two senior cats! We were a little worried leaving them with someone new, but the cats had nothing but pawsome feedback. Both kitties are on medications and very demanding, and Coleen exceeded all expectations. Coleen was quick to respond to any questions and provided thorough details of each visit along with a plethora of photos showing the kitties in their natural habitat which was really helpful. We came home, the house was in one piece, looked a little better than before we left, cats were happy, not overly stressed, had plenty of food and water. What a relief to have someone we can count on to watch our fur babies. I would not hesitate to schedule with Coleen again, as she was stellar! Thank you for looking after our two cats!! We will absolutely book again!”
About: I’ve worked with all kinds of dogs through daily walks, drop-ins, and longer stays — from high-energy breeds to shy or anxious pups who need a softer approach. I’m very attentive to details, routines, and behavior changes, and I always make sure each dog feels safe and understood. My weekly routine is very flexible, which makes pet care easy to build around. I split my time between volunteer work, errands, and studying at the library, and I schedule those things around my pet visits. Because of that flexibility, I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening walks. When I’m doing dog-sitting, I structure my day around the dog’s routine — feeding, bathroom breaks, playtime, and whatever helps them feel comfortable. I’m used to adjusting my schedule so pets get the consistency and care they’re used to. Their routine becomes my routine. I follow the pet’s routine exactly as the owner lays it out. Every dog is different, so I match their needs — feeding schedule, walk times, bathroom breaks, and any special instructions. I keep the home clean, make sure doors and crates are secured, and always double-check leashes, harnesses, and gates before we go out. I pay close attention to behavior and energy levels, especially with anxious dogs or seniors, and I give them plenty of reassurance and calm company. I send updates and photos during each visit so owners feel confident and connected while they’re away. My goal is to make the pet feel safe in their own space and keep everything running smoothly until their family comes home.
“Patricia was so great! Helped take care of our little zoo of ferrets, chickens, lizard, fish and a cat. Our ferret needed daily medicine which was super important and Patricia was so reliable we didn’t have to worry! She was thorough and communicated well, plus shared cute pics of our critters too… would highly recommend!!”

“Liz was a wonderful care giver and friend to our two cats while we were away. Spent a lot of time during her visits and made sure everything was taken care of with food, water and litter boxes. Gave them so much love as well. We could relax and enjoy our trip knowing they were in very good hands. We definitely recommend her services. :)”
O'Hare cat parents share their Rover experiences
Kelly was a phenomenal cat Sitter! She watched our two girl cats while we were on a nine day trip. She was super communicative and kept us informed every day. She made sure to provide a lot of photos which gave us peace of mind. Before we left for our trip, she was very flexible in how to hand off the keys, etc. Will definitely be requesting her services again. Highly recommend!
We had Nicholas care for our dog and four cats while we were away, including administering medication twice daily for one of our cats. Overall, he was reliable and made sure everyone was fed, cared for, and safe. We appreciated the photos and updates during visits. Our dog did get spooked during one walk due to a loud car and had a harder time going out after that, so more backyard time was used. There was an accident during one of the visits, which he handled and cleaned up, and we appreciated that. Overall, we’re grateful our pets were well cared for and would book again.
My cat received caring and helpful attention from Kara, the cat sitter. Especially when, as she is so friendly, kitty Francine did let her approach! It's the first time ever in this former hoarding victim's life, a stranger was allowed to see, and photograph, Francine! Thank you so much Kara!
