“Andrea was great! Our 2 Kitties seemed to jive with her and both of them have tendency to be shy. It can be complicated to find our apartment sometimes and she was able to follow the instructions we left her with no problem. I would definitely recommend her services to other animal parents!”

“Lisa is amazing! She is reliable, caring, punctual and detailed. She took pictures and videos of our pup that we all enjoyed seeing while out of town! I would highly recommend Lisa and will definitely use again. Thank you, Lisa for taking such great care of Oreo!”

About: I've lived with dogs since I was born and always loved pets. I have a dog of my own, a mini dachshund, and know how precious our fury friends are. I do pet sitting full time so have plenty of time to check on your pets :) I also take clients on the weekend if needed. I have a dog park in my complex where your pet can enjoy some time with my dog Benjamin. I am at home all day so have plenty of time!
“Margaret was great! She communicates very well and she took great care of my dog while visiting! I would recommend Margaret to anyone looking for help with their pup!”

“Mackenzie has always watched our feisty, 7 yr old cat & she was very quickly able to warm up to our new, little Daisy! She watched the girls through the holidays & it was obvious from the photos how much they love her!”

“Could not be any more appreciative of Tony's caring for Leo over the past month. She shares great feedback and suggestions after every visit and has been extremely helpful.”

“Izzy was so great with our kitties! She spent quality time with them while we were out of town. Izzy also shared pictures & videos with us that we enjoyed viewing and assured us our kitties were in good hands! I can’t thank her enough!”

“If my dogs could talk they would say “ where’s Patrick?” They LOVED him! My Malinois bonded with him and he was effective with his ability to pack lead. Patrick has a lot of experience as a dog trainer especially big dogs and worker dogs , which was very important to us. He exercised them and took wonderful care of them. We will most definitely book Patrick again. Patrick went above and beyond to make sure our dogs were safe, happy, and entertained. He is dependable, punctual, and very personable. Thanks Patrick”

“Joanna is awesome! You can tell she truly cares about animals and she put my mind at ease while I was away for a few days. She is an excellent communicator and was so patient and kind when checking in on my shy and nervous cat. I will definitely be booking her again!”

About: I have over five years of experience caring for dogs through Rover and for family and friends.

I’m pretty flexible and always make time for the dogs I watch. Whether it’s walks or playtime, I can adjust my day to make sure each pup gets the attention they need.

I give plenty of attention and snuggles, make sure they get gentle exercise, and keep their space comfortable and cozy. My goal is for every pup to feel happy, relaxed, and cared for while you’re away.
“Evan is always on time, super communicative about # pees/poops/water refreshes, sends tons of pictures, is super professional, and has helped us in every way he possibly could to reinforce good behaviors in our puppy. He also gives great advice for first time dog parents! Highly recommend especially after having worked with other walkers — Evan is truly the best, and it gives us a lot of peace knowing our puppy is taking walks with him while we are at work. Will definitely rebook.”

South Side pet parents share their Rover experiences
Jorden has taken care of my dog and cat many times now for various weekend trips and my longest two week vacation. She has always been readily available and great with the animals. My dog is a big German shepherd and she handles him with ease and even does his eye drops twice daily. Jorden is very reliable and will always be my go-to sitter.

Alexa is amazing!!! She not only came to rescue when we needed last minute help but went above and beyond to take care of my cats. I really appreciate her communication, photos and that she even cleaned up when it wasn’t asked of her! Will definitely have Alexa help watch my little angels again asap!

Nathalia was so prompt in responding to my request. By the next day we set up a meet and greet and she cared for my boys for 3 days. Nathalia kept me updated consistently through messaging and photos. My youngest boy is a rescue who came from a really bad sitch prior and still suffers from severe anxiety. Nathalia understood his needs and made me feel like she had a great understanding of his needs. I can’t express the gratitude of communication with or without the pups, and that put me at ease. I have never left my boys with anyone and this gave me severe anxiety. Again, Nathalia eased this anxiety by telling me she had a dog with some issues as well, which added to my level of comfort. I really appreciated her care, and would definitely recommend Nathalia and would use her services again if needed. Thank you Nathalia!
Evan was awesome with my two cats. They loved him and appreciated his playing. Evan provided extremely thorough and detailed updates to me in each of his visits and asked any clarifying questions he needed to. I would highly recommend Evan to anyone looking for a sitter in the area.
