“I highly recommend Georgia! She has been excellent in taking care of my Weimaraner, Leo. She is incredibly caring, thoughtful, and attentive to his needs. I always feel at ease knowing he’s in such good hands. Leo absolutely enjoys his time with her, and it’s clear she genuinely loves and cares for the dogs she works with. I’m very grateful to have found someone so reliable and compassionate.”

“Faith took amazing care of my dogs while I was away! I had her pop in twice a day to let the dogs out and feed them, and she was punctual for every visit. The dogs were happy in every photo that she sent to me. Overall would definitely rebook with Faith when I go out of town again.”

“Caryn did a great job watching my two kitties while we were away. She was flexible with the time of the visits and took great care of my kittens. They were not even upset that we left them! I'll most definitely book Caryn again.”

“This week was our first time using Rover for our kitties and we are so happy with the great job Sydney did! I gave lots of instructions because one of our cats recently fell sick and we were very nervous to leave her, but Sydney made us feel much more at ease! I would 10/10 recommend her to anyone else looking for a great sitter for their pet babies:)”

“Claudia always takes great care of my dogs while I'm away. I can tell my pups are happy when she visits them and she keeps me updated with cute photos and videos. Thanks Claudia!”

“Alexandria is amazing! She is communicative and provides detail summaries about the check-ins. I appreciate her detail and constant communication, and was especially comforted knowing my dogs were in good hands!”

“I have five fur babies, three are totally comfortable with sitters, but two are adopted puppies who came from abusive situations. Even at two years old and with training, they are still very hesitant around new people. Samuel has been incredibly patient, taking the time to meet with them multiple times and working at their pace to help them feel safe and comfortable, especially knowing he’ll be pet sitting for a full week. He has been gracious, calm, and understanding in every interaction, and his positive outlook toward the dogs—even with their standoffish nature—has meant so much to me. It’s clear he truly cares about animals and understands their individual needs. I would 100% recommend Samuel for any pet sitting or drop-in visits and feel completely confident leaving my pets in his care.”

“Eric is definitely my No.1 sitter choice! He was caring and followed all the instructions we left for him. He communicated throughout his visits. I would highly recommend Eric to watch your fur buddies!!!!”

“*As a repeat client, we couldn’t be happier with the care our dogs receive from Andrea! She walks our 1-year-old high-energy black lab and our 8-year-old pitbull mix, and she handles both of their very different needs so well. She’s amazing with them; patient, attentive, and clearly loves what she does. After their walk, she goes the extra mile by making sure our older dog gets some extra cuddles and attention, while our puppy gets the rest of her energy out with a fun tug-of-war or fetch session. It gives us so much peace of mind knowing we can always count on her to not only care for our dogs, but truly spoil them. We’re so grateful to have found someone who treats them like her own. Highly recommend! Lucky to have found Andrea; she is a gem of a human.”

“Karen was dependable, thorough, and went beyond in trying to get to know our kitties. Having just moved to the area, they were hesitant with a “stranger in a strange place!” Would recommend her!”

“Veronica was AMAZING, our sitter had to cancel last minute and she saved the day!! Our cat loved her and she sent lots of good photos and updates. Will definitely use her again!!”

“Ashley has always been great with my puppies. They are hard to handle and full of energy, and yet she somehow manages great photos and videos of them while keeping them entertained. She follows all special instructions to the letter, and she is always on time. Can’t say enough about how much my puppies love her visits!”

“Allison was great! I booked her very last minute, and she still made time to come over to do a greet and meet. She’s clearly a dog lover, and our pups instantly fell in love with her. And very affordable rates! 10/10 would rebook in the future!”


“This was my first time in a very long time requesting services from my peers on the app. Thank you for your care Hollie and I do look forward to seeing you soon.”

“Olivia was amazing! She came by to feed our senior cat who only eats wet food. We also have other cats that can make things tricky since they always want that food too, but she followed our instructions perfectly and handled it with no problem. It’s such a relief to have someone trustworthy come into our home and care for our pets. We’ll definitely be booking with Olivia again!”

“Wonderful Kristin is the best! We've used her many times and she's helpful and responsive. She'll keep you updated and is a very nice lady! Highly recommended”

About: I’ve been surrounded by wagging tails and happy paws my whole life! Growing up, my family raised five beautiful golden retrievers who taught me patience, responsibility, and the joy of unconditional love. At 21, my mom and I welcomed our mini golden doodle, Shamus, who graduated top of his puppy training class (proud dog mom moment!). When I turned 27, I brought home my mini Aussie doodle, Remi (aka "Remi Butt" because his little booty is the cutest!). I fully trained him myself, and he’s now a friendly, gentle boy who loves making new doggy friends. From puppies to seniors, I understand that every dog has their own personality and needs. Whether your pup needs energetic playtime, calm companionship, or extra help with training, I provide patient, loving, and attentive care. I treat every dog like family, because to me — they really are. 🐶❤️ Since I work from home, it’s easy for me to give pups plenty of love and attention, whether they’re staying at my place or in their own home. My apartment complex has an amazing dog park and a dog pool — yes, a pool just for the doggos! It has a shallow end and a “deep” end (about 2 feet max), perfect for swimmers or sunbathers alike. My boy Remi loves hanging out there, cooling off in the water, and soaking up the sun — and I always keep a close eye on every pup to make sure they’re safe and happy. On weekends, my partner and I love getting outdoors with Remi, and we’d be so excited to bring your furry friend along too! Sunshine, playtime, and plenty of cuddles are always part of the plan. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. In my home, I create a calm, secure, and welcoming environment — full of love, playtime, and cozy nap spots. I keep a close eye on all interactions and make sure every pup feels right at home, whether they want to run around, explore, or just snuggle up. My apartment complex is very dog-friendly, with a gated dog park and a dog pool, so pups can enjoy fun outdoor time in a safe, enclosed space. When caring for pets in their own home, I always respect your routines and rules to keep things familiar and stress-free. I make sure your pet feels comfortable by sticking to their usual schedule and providing lots of affection and attention. I understand that trusting someone with your fur baby is a big deal. I promise to care for them as if they were my own, with plenty of updates and photos along the way to keep you feeling at ease.
About: I have taken care of pups since high school! Friends, family, and customers have relied on me for walks, baths, and love. :) I am currently getting masters degree (my classes are in the evening) so I have free time during the day to love and spend time with your pups! I am available M-W and some weekends (I am flexible). I am dedicated to giving your pet the time and care they need during drop-ins, walks, or care at your home! Respect is a big thing. I have 11 years experience working within clients homes, with children, and with animals. Your home and pet will be in safe hands.
Park Forest pet parents share their Rover experiences
Was so patient with my anxious pup. She was able to gain her trust and successfully walk her. So communicative and a pleasure to speak to. I will be booking anytime I’m out of town and she’s available. She sent lots of pics and a sweet message when my dog finally allowed her to slip on the leash! 100/10 🤩🤩🤩

Samuel has been sitting for both our dog and cat for over a year and has been wonderful. We have used him for home boarding and drop in visits at our home in the west side and he is always great with communication, reliable, and does great with our pets. We have been very satisfied!

Karen is amazing she goes above and beyond to make sure my fur babies are taken care of. She is very communicative and provides such great service! I would HIGHLY recommend booking with her, she has never let me down, this is the second time booking with her and will continue to book with her as she is very trustworthy! Thank you Karen!!

Karen was absolutely wonderful and I could not recommend her enough as a pet sitter! She cared for my anxious cat and really took her time to accommodate to her feeding schedule and encourage plenty of playtime. This was my first time leaving my cat with anyone for a week and Karen easily exceeded my expectations and calmed my nerves! She took her time to understand my cat and her quirks and even went out of her way to buy her treats. She also constantly updated me and sent many videos and pictures which I absolutely loved. I will most definitely be rebooking again with her in the future. My cat is safe, healthy, and happy, and it’s all thanks to Karen!😄

Alexandria is a great cat sitter! She has done check in visits for my boy twice and both times went well. She takes lots of pictures for his drop-in card and does the extra care tasks I requested 😁. I would highly recommend her to anyone that needs a cat sitter!

Renee is amazing! This is the second time she has cared for my cats and she is great. Renee does such a great job communicating and sharing updates about the pets, I love all the pictures she sends! I know my cats and home are cared for and safe when Renee is on the job :)
