“Daniela was amazing as usual! She does a great job exercising our pups, follows instructions well and takes amazing care of them. They really seem to like her and we will definitely be using her as our go-to from now on!”
About: I have owned dogs of my own for 20 years. I took care of them and loved them dearly. I also helped friends whenever they asked me to walk or dog-sit for them. Hi Oksana here, I love dogs and I am available to walk, play and take care of your dogs from Monday through Thursday, at any time. I can walk, play with, care for, and feed your beloved dogs in your place. I will take into account all your wishes and requirements.
About: I'm currently a volunteer at an area shelter. I love to teach the dogs new tricks, brush them, etc. I completed my Pre-Veterinarian Assistant class with flying colors. I taught my rescue dog, "Noble" a Labrador/Shepard mix (85 pounds) to be a Therapy Dog. This took a lot of consistency and patience. We volunteered at a nursing home for over 7 years. I have a Comfort Canine Dog Certificate from Harper College in cooperation with Lutheran Church Charities. I had to pass many tests, discussions and demonstrate that I knew all 50 of their commands. I currently am qualified to can handle any of their trained Comfort Dogs. I have regular dog clients that have used me for years. Give me a try and see! Pets are precious and are taken care of first. I will follow your instructions on feeding, walking and regular routines. Your pet is my priority! I will follow your instructions for your fur babies while you're away. We can walk around the neighborhood or your backyard. Provide updates and photos based on your request.

About: I am a lifelong animal lover. I had dogs as a child and cats as an adult. I will give your pet lots of love and attention. I truly believe that pets are our best friends! They give us unconditional love and great joy! I have worked for a professional dog walking/pet sitting company since 2016 and love it. I am on Rover to offer my services to clients in my neighborhood. I'm currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time to keep your fur baby happy. I am available 7 days a week for overnights, dog walks, and in-house visits. When I take care of your pet in your home, I will always make sure that your pet is happy, safe, and comfortable. On overnight visits with dogs, I like to have the dog sleep with me if allowed.
“Anna has been doing drop ins for our puppy and older dog for the past couple of weeks. She is always on time and does a great job with them and providing photos and updates! Highly recommend Anna!”
“Faatima was wonderful with our cats, and from pictures alone we know they were comfortable and enjoyed her. We could tell at the meet and great the genuine care she would have for them. Her communication has been thorough and very timely throughout the process. We have already booked another visit with her.”
“Emma was wonderful with Wall-E and Eva! She was attentive, communicative, and clearly genuinely cares about the animals she looks after. My two orange cats can be particular, and Emma took the time to follow their routines and keep me updated with photos and messages while I was away. It was such a relief knowing they were in good hands. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again, HIGHLY recommend!”
“Honestly such a relief to have found such a great cat sitter. Ashley provided daily pictures, played with our cats and made being away from our cats worry free! 100% would recommend, will be using her services in the future anytime we travel.”
About: I’ve had pets my whole life and have experience caring for and walking dogs for friends and family. I’m comfortable with different breeds, sizes, energy levels, and personalities. I love staying active, so long walks and playtime are never a problem. I’m patient, reliable, and enjoy sending photo updates and check-ins so you can feel confident that your dog is happy and well cared for. I’m currently on summer break, which gives me a very flexible schedule for pet care. I have a 2-hour practice each day, but outside of that I am available throughout the day for walks, drop-in visits, playtime, feeding, and companionship. I always follow the pet owner’s instructions to make sure their pet stays comfortable and maintains their normal routine. In a client’s home, I provide feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and lots of attention while keeping the space clean and secure. I also send regular updates and photos so owners know their pet is happy and well cared for. I adjust my care to each pet’s personality, energy level, and specific needs to help them feel safe and comfortable.
“Did a great job caring for my cat. Didn't require a prior meeting and greet and followed my texted care instructions with no problems. Also brought in packages that were delivered without being asked, very appreciated.”
“Nathalia took wonderful care of my cat, SunTie! She was very responsible, kind, and attentive, and followed his care instructions carefully. I really appreciated the updates and felt comfortable knowing SunTie was in good hands while I was away. I would definitely recommend Nathalia and would be happy to book with her again in the future!”
“Pailin is the most caring and compassionate person and she genuinely loves our lab. He’s truly a member of the family so when we are traveling we always worry about how he’s doing but not when she is watching him. Can’t say enough great things about her!!”
“Madeline did a great job with Madison especially with kind of a last minute booking so I appreciate her flexibility. She did a great job with my dog and I came home to a happy dog so I would definitely book her again!”
About: I’ve been around dogs since I was little and grew up caring for family dogs long before having my own. Being around different breeds, personalities, and energy levels has taught me patience, responsibility, and how to make dogs feel safe and comfortable. Now I care for my own dog, Bruce, who’s taught me even more about trust, consistency, and understanding dog behavior. I’ve spent a lot of time working on training, recall, leash manners, and reinforcing good routines with him, which has made me even more attentive and confident around dogs. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding routines, playtime, leash handling, and making sure dogs feel relaxed and cared for while their owners are away. I also understand how important reliability and communication are, so I’m always happy to provide updates and photos along the way. Spending time with dogs has never felt like a job to me — it’s something I’ve genuinely loved my whole life. I recently graduated from college and currently have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate consistent time and attention to pet care throughout the week. Because I’m doing this full-time, I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting on both weekdays and weekends. Caring for dogs is something I genuinely enjoy, so I love being able to give pets the time, attention, playtime, and companionship they need instead of rushing through visits. I’m also reliable with communication and happy to provide updates and photos so owners always feel comfortable and informed while they’re away. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my top priority. I take the time to understand each dog’s routine, personality, and needs so they feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while in my care. I’m attentive during walks, careful with leash handling, and experienced around dogs with different personalities and energy levels. Working with my own dog, Bruce, has also given me experience reinforcing leash manners, recall, and consistent routines, which has helped me become patient, observant, and confident around dogs. I keep a clean, calm environment with plenty of attention, playtime, fresh water, potty breaks, and comfortable places to rest. I also understand how important communication is when trusting someone with your pet, so I’m always happy to provide updates and photos so owners feel comfortable and at ease while they’re away.
About: I love furry animals such as dogs and cats. I also have experience as a caregiver for senior citizens. I had a dog from a rescue shelter for 5 years until she unfortunately passed away. I have open availability and work around my kids school schedule. I can support your pets with their needs in walking, playing, and eating. I look forward to helping your family. I live in a 3 bedroom apartment and can take them for walks around my apartment complex. I live in a safe neighborhood. I will provide safety in the clients home by keeping the doors locked and fence closed after walking your pet.
Schaumburg dog parents share their Rover experiences
Mya was amazing from the moment we and the dogs met her. She was very friendly and tentative to the dogs, asked a lot of questions to make sure she was taking care of them as we would! Mya was very easy to communicate with and was also accommodating to our very hectic schedule! We will definitely be booking with her again and if you care about your pets you should book with her as well!
Lia is great!! I have two dogs, one of whom is reactive, and she was completely understanding and willing to work with her. I was super nervous about it, but her knowledge and experience with dogs put my mind at ease super quick. My dogs LOVED her right away, and were so happy to walk with her. 10/10 recommend!
