“Joe took care of our guys and house for a long weekend. He took the boys on long walks and we could tell that they were super happy with Joe. Very good communicator and highly responsible. We will be scheduling with Joe again soon.”

“Keith was very easy to work with. He was flexible with our travel date changes, very responsive and was able to keep up with changes in meds and walking schedule when my dog injured his paw days before we left. I felt comfortable leaving him with my shepherd, who is very strong and can be reactive on walks. He understood how to manage a big dog and knew how to use a prong collar. He sent pictures regularly which allowed me to enjoy my trip worry-free!”

“Chloe is a Rockstar! We booked Chloe to take care of our 5 animals (3 dogs and 2 cats) while out of town for a week. She was very professional and attentive during the meet-and-greet session. While we were on vacation she sent us daily updates with pics of her and the dogs enjoying snuggles and walks. Our animals are typically very easy to care for, but they gave her a few good challenges that she went above and beyond to take care of. She reached out to inform us that she noticed an animal had an accident on our bedding, without hesitation she offered to wash it for us so that it wouldn’t set in and stain. Our youngest dog (3 y/o) decided to shred a tissue box, so when she noticed the blizzard of tissue shreds she cleaned it up and laughed it off as ‘dogs will be dogs’. Then our oldest dog (15 y/o) really gave her a run for her money when he decided to poop in his crate and roll all over it. She cleaned the crate, washed his bed, and rinsed him off too! We can’t say enough how grateful we are that she had a positive attitude and was willing to deal with them at their worst. We were certain she thought they were probably the worst, but she messaged us and said “ they really have not been a challenge otherwise, I do still love hanging out with them!!”. Not what we were expecting her to say, but a huge relief that she has such a love for animals and had a positive and loving attitude towards them. Defiantly plan to book with her again! Thank you Chloe!”

“Chy was great with my girls, H and M! She took great care of my dogs and my home while I was away. She is an excellent communicator and sent me photos every day I was gone. I will definitely be asking her to house/dog sot for me again the future.”


“I had a great experience with Elizabeth. I had her dogsit in my home over the holidays, and I left feeling assured that everything would be handled without worry. Elizabeth kept me informed along the progression of the dogsit, and updated me with photos and texts. She was also willing to feed my 2 cats. I was away for 4 days. I highly recommend Elizabeth.”
“Danielle was truly heaven sent while we were on our honeymoon. Our dog has special needs and she handled everything like a pro! Our pup even had some tummy troubles while she was there and she went absolutely above and beyond to take care of him until we could get back. We are so grateful to have found Danielle and we will absolutely book with her again!”

“Maddie is a wonderful pup / house sitter. She has completed 2 in-home stays for us over holiday weekends and taken excellent care of our 2 huskies. She was proactive with communication before each stay to get keys and instructions. During the stay she sent daily updates and pictures. We were able to relax on vacation knowing our pups were happy and cared for. Thank you Maddie!”
“Andrea has taken care of my dog in my home several times. She is communicative, professional, and has been very flexible even when my travel plans changed last minute. Andrea sends daily updates and pictures which I love receiving. She also doesn’t hesitate to share concerns, for example if my dog hasn’t finished her food. Andrea always leaves my house just as she found it. Most importantly, my dog is always very happy when I return home which I know has a lot to do with the great care she receives from Andrea.”

“Alyssa did an amazing job taking care of Rocky. She was a great communicator and I could tell Rocky felt very comfortable with her. I will definitely be using her again for any future pet sitting needs!”

“Breon is a life saver. She always cares for the animals with the utmost love and care. But we got stuck in NYC with cancelled flights and having her ensure they were safe and cared for while we tried to get home, was a life saver.”

About: I have a soft spot in my heart for rescues and special needs pets. I have two dogs, Darling (an 11 year old terrier mix with special needs) and August (a 2 year old very active service dog), and three rabbits, Nanny, Nobby, and Midna. I am experienced in administering medication, providing stimulation and play, caring for pets with special needs, caring for senior pets, maintaining service dog training, and exercising high-energy dogs. I’m active and love to be outdoors, and you can often find me on a hike or walk with a pup in tow! I’m also happy house sitting and just snuggling on the couch with pets of all kinds! I work a hybrid schedule and live on the near west side. Ready to care for your pet and give them love, attention, and exercise while you’re away from home! My schedule is flexible. I can come by to walk, play, feed, and exercise your pet as needed and keep them on a daily schedule. I’m available for overnights and house sitting as well.
“Eve did a great job watching our two pets this past week. She stayed at our home and communicated regularly with us with notes on how they were both doing. She took care of our home very well also. Glad to have her help us! We’ll be reaching out again when we need someone to take care of our pets!”

“I couldn’t have found a better sitter for my beagle. This is the first time he has had a sitter since we rescued him. Madison knew exactly what to do to help Flash adjust to her. Madison’s love for dogs is apparent by the time she spent playing with him and the wonderful pictures she sent with comments. She always responded quickly to all communication. I feel 100% confident leaving my dear dog with her. With all of that said I must add that her warm and friendly personality is a major plus. She has earned the highest score possible for top notch dog sitters!”

“Megan was awesome!!! Great communication and lots of photo/video updates. Tucker gots lots of ball/fetch time, which is his fave! I truly felt like Megan cared for Tucker as she would for her own pup ♥️ I came home to a tidy house and a very happy and tired pup 🐶”

I love being able to get to know your pet and what they require. I am currently a full-time college student with tons of early weekday and full weekend + Friday availability!

“Having Madi stay with our dogs was fabulous! They were happy and well taken care of. There was no hunger strike or readjustment period as in the past :) Madi was great with communication!”

“Olesja was AMAZING with our two dogs. Our older dog has become fairly territorial around people he isn't fully comfortable with so we have to be very careful about who we let take care of him, but he and Olesja hit it off immediately! She became one of his favorite people as soon as she came over for her meet and greet. She was a great communicator and consistently went out of her way to give our pups the best experience possible. (She even put up with my landlord accidentally locking her out while it was raining.) Our dogs are also so much better on leash thanks to her training! Will definitely be adding her to our list of regular sitters going forward.”

“Ari is fantastic! She came over for a meet & greet, and both of my dogs were so calm and happy in her presence. She dogsat my older dog in our home while we were on a weekend trip and provided consistent communication (and lots of cute pics!) and went above and beyond to make sure Hendricks was taken care. Will definitely book Ari again, the dogs loved her!”

“Kirsten was amazing. Great communication, sent photos and updates frequently, kept everything tidy at the house, and she thoroughly documented all of our dog’s routine, care, and details. We felt extremely confident leaving our little one with her and staying in our house. I highly recommend her.”

Stockyards pet parents share their Rover experiences
We hired Chy for a last-minute overnight stay to watch our 2 dogs. She was very friendly and super responsive. There was a slight misunderstanding on my end about her staying over, which was completely my fault, but she handled it smoothly and accommodated the situation. The only thing I wish she had done was send a few more pictures throughout the weekend, but overall the dogs seemed happy and well cared for. We will likely rebook with her next time we need a sitter. I'll make sure I'm better prepared.

Megan was awesome!!! Great communication and lots of photo/video updates. Tucker gots lots of ball/fetch time, which is his fave! I truly felt like Megan cared for Tucker as she would for her own pup ♥️ I came home to a tidy house and a very happy and tired pup 🐶

Laura is a great communicator, trustworthy, a sweet and lovely person to invite into your home. She looked after our dog in our home and I felt very secure and comfortable with leaving it all to her. Laura left the place better than she found it, sent great updates and made me feel happy our dog had her looking after him. Highly recommend.

Elizabeth was a life-saver! She responded immediately to our request for house-sitting and from then on was just simply amazing. She was communicative, punctual and most importantly, a kind wonderful companion to our animals. We are grateful to have met her and would absolutely recommend her to others in need of care for their fur babies.

Lydia did an excellent job! She communicated well, sent us lots of pictures, and asked all kinds of questions to ensure she was providing the best care possible. We appreciated her flexibility, friendliness, and holistic care for our pup. Glad to have her back in the future!

Andria is perfect and an absolute pleasure to work with! She took lots of photos of our furbabies and was respectful of our house. She even brought in a package delivery from outside, which is just so sweet! Andria is clean, well organized and very thorough. Andria was available on super short notice, which helped us out immensely.

Jonathan was amazing! I would absolutely book with him again. He helped us out in such a pinch and followed every routine for our dogs. He was very communicative and sent many pictiures. He stayed at our home and left it in prestine condition, 10/10 stars from me!

Cameron did a fantastic job with our two dogs. He was communicative with us while we were out of town and proactively sent us updates on what was going on. He took great care of our house as well. I would definitely refer him to a friend and plan on working with him again in the future.

Pups seemed to love her!! She was willing to meet and greet before since im anxious leaving my pups with someone else. Was so kind as to being our 40 pound bags of dog food too since it arrived earlier than expected 😭 would def book again and cant wait to see how my pups grow to like her even more!!

Georgia did a great job watching our pup while we were traveling for the week. She kept her fed and happy, and even helped with last minute medications. She was very clear and consistent in communication and made it so we never doubted the standard of care our dog was receiving.
