“Our dog, Maggie, loves Shannon! We have a high energy lab mix puppy who was having a tough time being alone for long.

We feel like we the jackpot with Shannon!”

About: First time using Rover? Use our code for $20 off your first booking! STEPHP14625 Hi! Stephanie and Kevin here! We live in Roscoe Village, Chicago with our 4 year old Beagle mix, Leon and 7 year old cat, TBone. Leon is very social and his absolute favorite thing is to play with other Rover pups. We decided to join Rover to help others beat the cost and uncertainty of boarding facilities. Your pets will be in great care with Kevin and I, and we will make sure they have the best experience possible! We both work from home and will be able to meet the needs of your pet at all times. We have a fenced in backyard that allows for playtime and we love taking walks through the neighborhood! We very much look forward to working with you and your furry loved ones! Please Note: Rover overnight stays cover a 24-hour period. We offer a late pick-up grace period of 3 hours. For late pickups that are beyond 3 hours, a day care rate of $20-$40 will be added to the booking.

“I’ve known Annie all throughout Highschool, and she’s a very responsible person who has a soft spot for all pets. She’s great with dogs, and my dog loves her especially, and she's always keeping up with him on long walks. I definitely recommend her because she’s a great and caring person for your pets.”
12. Leanne R.
“TRUST Leanne, your fur baby will be in the BEST of hands! I have known Leanne for over 20 years of being close friends, but she also lives in the same neighborhood as well. Leanne is a huge animal lover and being around them gives her so much joy and peace. I see how much she loves her own doggies and hamster and takes exceptional care of them. She lives through her pets. Leanne is also a very active person; so being with your dog and outdoor in the fresh air, she will be a happy camper. I have a senior large dog (you wouldn't know it) and a bunny (that is now deceased) that she used to care for when my family and I would take vacations. We knew that our fur babies would be in the ultimate loving care of Leanne. She would be so kind to walk my dog and fill in the mama role while I wasn't there and send me pictures and updates to rest assure they were all happy and healthy. She is more than my friend, she is family. I trust with my dog and now young cat if I ever needed her help again. Not only does Leanne not just love my pets, she loves my children and spoils them with thoughtful gifts. I am very grateful for Leanne! I know when you choose Leanne, you won't be disappointed. She is responsible, reliable, dedicated to her passions, and you will be relieved knowing that your pet is in her care. Book her today!”

She is responsible and attentive, ensuring that the dogs receive the care and attention they need. Jenny has experience with various breeds and understands their unique needs and behaviors.

Additionally, she communicates effectively with us as pet owners, keeping us up to date and at ease when we are away.”
