About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was 12. We have had family dogs growing up and we raised since puppies. I have also dog sat and taken care many friends/ family dogs of all ages. I was a nanny in high school and college and would take care of their dogs as well. I have experience with dog sitting/boarding up to 3 dogs at once. My days are very flexible and I will have plenty of time to feed, play with, and walk dogs at any hour on the days of the week I am available. My husband also works from home full time and loves to help out with walks/playing! We have a fenced in yard. We do not have a dog of our own so your dog will get all of the attention! We have plenty of room to fit a crate if necessary. We also have a gate to fence off the upstairs part of the house if necessary as well.

About: I'm Victor a homeowner in Hoffman Estates with a fenced backyard and a genuine love for dogs. Your dog gets my full attention: structured walks, a safe yard to run, and a calm home environment. I keep owners updated with photos and check-ins throughout the day. Small things matter to me because your dog matters to you. I'm currently working full-time and have time to walk dogs after 6 p.m., I'm available on weekends as well upon request. Weekends availability if needed. I can responsibly walk your dog without distractions, that means not checking my cellphone every minute during the walk. If house sitting is needed, I am a home owner with fenced back yard and empty unfurnished basement.
About: I've been around pets me whole life. I have always loved dogs of all sizes. My parents owned Shih Tzus since I was a kid and I was constantly around close family members' German Shepherds as well. I've done drop-ins countless times over the years for cats of friends and family. Now along with my husband, we live with our dog, Melon, and our cat, Amy. Melon is a 50lb 1-year-old mix breed, and Amy is an 11-year-old senior cat. They can be hectic and they keep us on our toes, but I wouldn't have it any other way! When your pets are in my care, I'll always treat them with all the love and adoration I give my own. I am currently between full-time jobs, so my schedule tends to be open and very flexible for caring for your pets, whether it be on weekdays or the weekend. For pet care at your home, I will prioritize sticking to whatever routine keeps you and your pets comfortable and happy! I know how stressful it can be when family members aren't home, and will do whatever your pets need to know that they are safe and loved even in your absence. If your dog comes to stay at my house, you can take comfort in knowing they'll have access to a fully fenced back yard to run and play in, so they are secure and entertained. My dog, Melon, LOVES other dogs and nothing would make her happier than a new friend coming over to hang out with her.

“Pattie and Mike took excellent care of Shadow while he was in their care! He had a great time, met lots of new friends and was exhausted at the end of the day! I would highly recommend Mike and Pattie to others!”

“I can confidently say Erena is the best dogsitter out there. She keeps updating with adorable pictures and is incredibly responsive. My dog is always happy and well-cared-for in her hands. Highly recommend!”

About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and patience I bring to every pet I care for. I’ve had animals in my home since I was young, and over the years I’ve helped care for pets for elderly owners when they were unable to themselves. I have experience with boarding, bathing, light grooming, reinforcing owner-trained commands, and caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities — from teacup poodles to Great Danes and pitbulls. I’ve also administered oral medications and cared for diabetic dogs and pets with health needs. Building trust with both pets and owners is something I truly value, and I’m grateful to have had many repeat clients over the years. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine as a stay-at-home mom who already spends a lot of time being active with my family and our own dog. We live in a gated community with great walking and running trails, so runs, walks, playtime, and exercise are already part of our day. I’m home often, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, companionship, care, and supervision throughout the day. I care for pets based on their individual routines and owner preferences to help them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. Safety is my top priority, and interaction with other dogs, including my own, only happens with owner permission. Pets receive supervised potty breaks, walks, playtime, attention, and plenty of care throughout the day, with routines kept as consistent as possible both in my home and in clients’ homes.

About: I pride myself on my strong sense of responsibility and scheduling discipline, meaning I will always be on time for walks and strictly follow your pet's specific care instructions. I love staying active and exercising, so your dog will get the perfect amount of outdoor fun, playtime, and fresh air. I treat every single pet as if they were a part of my own family, making sure they are completely safe and comfortable. You can count on me for regular updates, quick communication, and lots of love for your furry best friend! As a college student taking online classes this summer, my schedule is incredibly flexible. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine because I have the freedom to manage my own time. I am a very physically active person who loves exercising and going on long walks. Since I live surrounded by beautiful green areas, I can easily incorporate energetic walks and outdoor playtime into my day, ensuring your pet gets the exercise and stimulation they need. Whether your pet needs early morning attention, midday visits, or evening companionship, my flexible schedule allows me to be there whenever they need me most. When caring for pets in a client's home, safety, trust, and strict adherence to routine are my top priorities. I am highly organized and disciplined, so I follow all feeding, medication, and cleaning instructions exactly as requested to maintain a stress-free environment. I make sure doors and windows are secure at all times, and I keep a close eye on the pet's body language to ensure they feel safe and comfortable. I love exploring the surrounding green trails for long, safe walks, always keeping dogs securely leashed. You will receive regular updates and photos, giving you total peace of mind knowing your home is respected and your pet is receiving dedicated, loving care.
“Mary was great. We were in the area for an unexpected family trip and wanted to do a little nearby sight-seeing without leaving Bibi alone in a strange environment. She took us on with late notice and was a great communicator through the whole process, which was especially great as we were new to the Rover platform. Highly recommend. Thanks so much.”

“Tiago is a wonderful dog sitter. Our 7 month old bernedoodle puppy is very high energy and he is very patient and kind to her. He is obviously a dog lover. He is also very organized and always has all of her toys and stuff packed up at pick up time. We couldn't ask for a better sitter and Maggie loves going to visit him and his lovely family.”

“Sana was amazing with Jesse! She really got to know him, and I could tell from the photos and messages that Jesse was feeling safe and cared for. As a first-time dog mom, it’s tough to leave my furry baby behind, but knowing more about him and getting updates during and after pick-up really put my mind at ease and made it even better than I had hoped. If you are looking for.a reliable, caring and professional pet sitter, I highly recommend Sana!”

“Kristina was absolutely fantastic. This was the first time we used a sitter for our little guy and Kristina made sure he was comfortable and gave him enough time to adjust. She was very flexible with timings as well.”
About: My journey with Rover began approximately 8 years ago and it's been a delight to meet and care for furry babies when their parents were in need of a responisible and trusted caretaker. At that time, my Lola, was just as excited to befriend and play with pals. As my Lola grew older, she developed medical issues and my attention and all the time I could give,was directed only towards her. Therefore, I took a pause to spend time with her and give her all I could. Her time, to join the rest of angel friends, came on December 17th, 2025. I came back to Rover simply because I miss the company of the most pure soul and my best friend of 13 years. I know how important it is to leave your pet in good care, cater to your best friend just as your own family and hope to meet them soon.
About: I’ve been around dogs and cats my entire life and absolutely adore all of them! I’ve used Rover in Florida for years when I lived there and recently moved to Chicagoland area and would love to start back up again here. I am a full time stay at home mom and work just 2 days a week so I have pretty good availability. We have a young mastiff mix, Titus, who is a huge baby and loves to play with other dogs. He’s still getting used to our cats but he just wants to play all the time. I’ve walked and watched dogs at my home of all breeds and sizes. I have also done many drop in visits for kitties as well. If you’re at work and need a walk or going on vacation and need a sitter, I can do it all :) I’d love to help you out with any of your fur babies when you need it! I’m currently a full time stay at home mom and work just 2 days a week so I have pretty open availability for any of your pet watching/walking/sitting/daycare needs! Our animals are never short of any lovin. Between me, my significant other, our teenager or 7 year old, they get lots of attention! And we would love to give your fit baby all the love as well! If it’s just a walk, I can walk and play, cuddle, pet, feed, whatever yours and your pets needs may be! We have a playful doggo in our home and would love to have visitors whether it’s just for a day for daycare or extended period. They’ll get nice walks and lots of attention. Our pup goes in the crate when we aren’t home and would prefer if your dog be crated or gated off when we would be away as well. I’m home nearly all day other than errands here and there and work 2 days a week. So your fur baby will receive lots of attention!
“Rhondarose is my “not so secret weapon” in navigating my day to day! She is flexible, responsible, caring, and an absolute gem. Clover loves being there with her and the pups, and it warms my heart to know that she is very well taken care of.”

“Sue has been watching our pup Archie for a while with her daughter and does an amazing job. She treats him like her own giving us piece of mind that our pup is safe and happy while we are at work. We also appreciate the socialization he’s gotten meeting some other pups while at day care. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Sue to anyone!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was in my 20s. I’ve also taken care of senior dogs, so I know how to handle their special care. I’m very experienced in feeding and grooming, and I love the companionship it brings to a family! I am a stay at home mom, and my husband works from home, so there’s always someone there to watch and play with your fur baby! We always have lots of time for walking and playing throughout the day. I have an extremely safe neighborhood with a little park about a 3 minute walk away, two kids that love playing with dogs, (15 and 8) and an extremely friendly mini goldendoodle!
“Pepsi had a lot of fun at Erin and Eddie’s. It was our first time using Rover and our first time leaving Pepsi with a sitter. Erin and Eddie were so caring about his needs and followed through the care instructions. They made sure Pepsi had a great time and slept well until it was time to pick him up.”

It is hard to find a sitter during the holidays so I am very happy to find Vijaya! My senior poodle had a great time with some new canine friends in Vijaya’s spacious home. Vijaya took great care of her and even took her for a walk in the neighborhood. Throughout the day, I received photos updates which I appreciate very much. We trust Vijaya with our precious pup and will certainly board with Vijaya again.

We had a wonderful experience with Angela. She was very kind, communicated quickly, and kept us updated with regular check-ins about our pup Stella. It was such a relief knowing our pup was well cared for. I highly recommend her to anyone needing a dependable sitter, and we’ll gladly book her again in the future!
