“This was our second time having Megan stay in our home with our two dogs. She was very patient with our shy girl and had her begging for pets and cuddling up after a couple of days. She kept us up to date with lots of messages and pictures, and the house was left tidy. 100% will book with Megan again!”

“This was our first time working with Arianna! She was able to accommodate us last minute and take care of our FOUR furbabies. She met all of their individual needs and was able to fit a meet and greet same day. Kept us informed of any updates and sent pictures. We felt very comfortable leaving our pups with her. Looking forward to booking with her again. She so great even our Velcro dog loved her”


“Penelope was the best sitter we’ve ever had. She was professional and my oodle puppies LOVED her! They’re usually skittish with new people but they jumped right up to hug her! She takes care of your babies like she would her own! We will be requesting Penelope again in the future!”

“Awesome guy and sitter! He watched my pup Ziggy for just under a week, and I can tell Ziggy had a great time! John spends a lot of time with the pets in his care, which I love. I came home to a tired dog, and clean house! He took out the trash, brought in the mail, did laundry for anything he used, and cleaned up in general. He was also very responsive and sent photos and updates. 10/10 recommend!”

“Our four dogs really enjoyed being with Maya every time.. she is attentive to detail and particular needs my dogs have! We don’t worry when our dogs are being cared by her.. we appreciate and love working with her. We know they are being well cared for :)”


“Carolyn is fantastic! I got updates and pictures every day so I knew my babies were taken care of and I could relax and enjoy my vacation. I will definitely use her services again and I would recommend her 100%”

“This was my first time using Lillian. She was on time for our Meet and Greet, sent daily pictures of my fur babies and via these pics I could clearly see they were comfortable in her care. She promptly texted me about concerns and left the house neat and tidy. The house needed to be swept/swiffered given the house bunny is in a shed cycle but perhaps I didn’t make that expectation clear.”

“This was my first time using Cali but it won’t be my last! Chachi and Stormy were healthy and happy when I returned home. You could tell they received lots of love and affection. The house was left neat and tidy, and she stayed in daily contact. I am a happy client!!”

“She was a fantastic sitter! Very communicative, sent pictures daily and provided Goose with so much love! She even took him on a special outing to meet new dog friends. We will definitely book with her again!”

About: I’ve been working with all kinds of cats and dogs of every size for five years now. I really enjoy working and playing with the dogs and taking care of their needs. I’m currently in school for my NP, but when I’m not doing school I do have plenty of time to care for the dogs and do everything they need. I have a dog friendly pug and cat in the home. They do very well with other cats and dogs of all sizes. And the area I live in is very dog friendly.
“I could not have asked for a better sitter for Romeo. She kept him on a great schedule, made sure he never felt lonely, and sent the sweetest updates and photos every day. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in such caring hands. Truly grateful for her!”

“Margaret was awesome!! Skipper had a great time and was very well taken care of. We got updated throughout every day and she was super transparent and kind! We will definitely be hiring her again and highly recommend her!”


“Chloe was amazing with our senior dog and cat. She stayed in our home with them and had great communication and updates throughout her stay. Our animals warmed up to her immediately. She also took great care of our home while we were gone.”

“Followed my instructions and showed great communication and updates! I could tell my pets were relaxed and taken care of when I came home!! I will definitely hire Karen again!”

About: I’ve had pets my whole life and several years of experience caring for dogs and cats. I’m attentive, patient, and treat every fur baby like my own. I’m comfortable adapting to the care your pet needs and the routine you prefer. I understand it can be stressful to be away from your babies, and some may need a little extra love. As a pet owner myself, I want you to feel confident, secure, and worry-free knowing your loved one is well cared for. I work from home and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to easily prioritize pet care throughout my day. I’m able to plan my routine around your pet’s needs and provide consistent attention. I focus on making pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved. In my home, I provide a calm environment with a fenced yard for supervised outdoor time and crates available if needed. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I stick closely to their routine, follow instructions carefully, and make sure they feel secure and well cared for while you’re away.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - South Side
When needing services for your fur family, Rover has numerous options and when I read Arianna’s profile and reviews, I felt more than comfortable with her professional services. I was not disappointed at all, Arianna is an awesome person with pets, we were extremely happy with her. I will definitely reach out to her in the future. I also strongly recommend her services for anyone needing what she offers for your pets. Thank you Arianna.

Kyle did an outstanding job with both our boxers. Beau is a 7.5 month old male German boxer. He can be a handful. Kyle gave us routine updates with photos. Kyle stayed in our home, and it was perfectly clean and in order upon our arrival. My wife and I highly recommend Kyle for pet sitting. We fully entrust the well being and safety of our 2 boxers either Kyle. Thank Kyle for a great job on sitting our boys.

Christina had a last-minute situation that resulted in needing to change the house sitting to drop-in visits, and she was very professional about communicating the need for the change and dropping the overall price. We are grateful that she was still able to prioritize caring for our pets during the holiday. The pets were happy and healthy when we returned, and the litterbox was clean. Thanks Christina!
