“This was my first time using Rover and I couldn’t be more impressed. I chose Faatima because she had great reviews with cats and I couldn’t be more pleased with how nice she was. Faatima took great pictures of my cats eating and playing. They were so well taken care of. We were always up to date on when she was at the house. I highly recommend Faatima & will definitely be using her on our next vacation. Thank you for loving out boys while we were out of town!”
“I was nervous about leaving my dog with someone I didn’t know, especially going so far away. Maricela was amazing! She was reliable and prompt and went above and beyond to make sure my fur baby was loved and cared for. I will definitely use her again knowing I won’t have to worry”

About: I’m available at any time to take great care of your cat or small dog. I like to groom them, which helps foster trust in me. I am available any time to take great care of your cat or small dog. I will meet you and them at your home so you can see how well we’ll get along. I will come to your house to take care of your cat.

About: Being around animals makes me happy! My volunteer trainings and the past experiences of being around animals and genuine patience and empathy can give the best care to your fur babies that come my way. I have volunteered with local animal rescues since 2007, and am currently on the board of a small NY based rescue. I am a cat lady at heart but adore all animals! As a flight attendant and have been flying professionally since 1997, I know the anxious feeling of being away from my fur babies and missing them so so well (longest period was a month) where the only thing that gave me solace were the numerous pictures and descriptive texts from my sitter. I would like to provide that comfort for you when you are away from them. Please contact me whenever you need someone punctual and reliable, and enjoy giving updates to the pawrents to ease their heart! Pet care is my daily life. I do not have a problem at all making the life about the fur babies because it is. It's true that I work to give them a better life! Just by being loving and trying to give them what they need at the time they ask for it! Also for the owners I will give as many pictures and update texts as they want (because for me, it was more the better when I was on the road). Being safe and having trust is the very base of what I represent and that is nonnegotiable.
“Our first time using Rover while in Telluride and we are so thankful to have Nancy's help with our puppy. She sent great pictures and we couldn't be happier with the service she provided. We'll definitely use her again.”
About: I’ve always had a passion for animals ever since I was little. I currently work with dogs and seeing them brightens my day. I treat and love them as my own. I’m currently working a part time job with dogs as of now my schedule can be a little weird but I could either be working 6:30 am till 12:00 pm or 1:00 pm to 7:00pm my off days are Monday and Wednesday the busy schedule wouldn’t stop me from being able to care for your fur baby! When caring for pets my approach is always tailored to the individual animal's needs and the owner's preferences. For client's homes, I follow their specific instructions meticulously, maintaining their pet's routine as closely as possible. This includes feeding, administering medications, cleaning litter boxes or yards, and providing companionship. Not only will I care for your fur baby you can also trust me to make your furry baby breakfast lunch/dinner, give medication’s and give injections as needed which I learned and know how to do!
About: I've taken care of animals since I was a kid, owned dogs as big as Saint Bernards, 4 cats, and currently a Pitbull. I've put my dog through beginner, intermediate, and advanced obedience training, so I can put that training to work with your animal as well. :) I work as a teacher during the day, so I can visit your pets anytime after 3pm and anytime, morning or night on the weekends. Since I have grown up around animals, I know how to respect their boundaries and let them 'accept' me before I give them pets. I know their body language well enough to know when they're happy, upset, or don't like a certain thing in their environment. I know that animals need stimulation, so I like taking them for walks and giving them proper attention and playtime :)
About: I’ve taken care of four legged fur babies since I was 10. Neighbors, family, and friends have counted on me to walk, feed, and love all their animals since as long as I can remember! Your pet will be like my own for the time I care for them :)) I take care of 4 cats every day so pet care comes as a second nature for me! Adding some new fur babies to the routine would be a blast! I’ve got experience with all different species. Ranging from as small as a Guinea pig, to as big as a horse. I know their basic care regimens and a knack for learning new things! I have so much love to give your sweet babies but that’s not all. I take each pet’s schedule seriously and try to accommodate it to the best of my ability. Almost as if you never left! I do work full time but I stay at your house as if their schedule becomes mine!
“Levi did an incredible job with my 8 year old reserved Boxer, Roo. I contacted Levi within a few days of needing someone to help walk and feed her, and they quickly responded and eagerly accepted. My pup is on a special homemade diet for her kidney disease, and Levi followed all instructions and made sure Roo was taken care of. If you need a trusted person to look after your beloved pets, they are in safe hands with Levi! 100% recommend and I will for sure be booking with them again! :) Thanks again, Levi!”

“Kristina was wonderful at taking care of Saga. She was kind, caring and loving. She was great at following directions related to her medication and food. Also, she was prompted answering all my questions. I appreciate your help and support when I was away from home. Thank you.”
About: I worked at a dog kennel/police dog training facility over the summers as a teen so I'm familiar with many different dog breeds. I also grew up with 4 hunting dogs, so I understand high energy dogs and their need to go for walks (or runs!) I'm currently a teacher on summer break so I have plenty of time on weekdays to take your pup on a long walk or play with your cats! I am happy to care your furry friends any way that works best for them and their routine within a safe and familiar environment, giving you peace of mind while you're away.
About: Hi, I’m Liv, a lifelong pet lover with extensive experience caring for dogs and cats! Before getting my own dog, Lucy, I spent years pet sitting through TrustedHousesitters, receiving great reviews from pet owners who appreciated my attentive care and reliability. Now that I have Lucy—a sweet and energetic Wheaten Terrier—I’ve decided to offer my pet-sitting services locally. What sets me apart? I treat every pet like my own, ensuring they feel comfortable, loved, and entertained while you’re away. I’m experienced with a variety of breeds, temperaments, and care needs, from energetic puppies to senior pets who need extra attention. Whether it’s belly rubs, long walks, playtime, or snuggles, I tailor my care to each pet’s personality and routine. I’d love the chance to meet your furry friend and provide them with top-notch care while giving you peace of mind. Let’s chat about how I can help! I work from home, so I’m home all day to provide plenty of attention, playtime, and care for your pet. Since I already have a dog, Lucy, I’m used to keeping a consistent routine with walks, potty breaks, and snuggles throughout the day. Whether your pet loves company or just needs someone around to keep them comfortable, I can easily accommodate their needs. In my home, I make sure pets feel comfortable and part of the family. Since I work from home, they’ll get plenty of attention, potty breaks, and playtime throughout the day. My dog, Lucy, is friendly and gentle, but I can also accommodate pets who prefer their own space. I follow each pet’s usual routine as closely as possible, whether that means scheduled walks, mealtime routines, or just extra snuggles. In a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their pet’s environment familiar and stress-free. I follow all provided instructions carefully, maintain their usual routine, and send regular updates so pet parents have peace of mind. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding schedules, medication, or just companionship, I ensure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved while their owner is away.
About: Hi! I’m Karen, a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for both small and large pets. I’ve cared for everything from my hamster in high school to my sister’s German Shepherd, Kratos, and I’m currently a proud cat mom to two senior cats, Leo and Toast. Beyond my own pets, I regularly care for my friends’ cats and dogs when they’re out of town. I’m comfortable with different personalities, routines, and energy levels, and I understand that every pet has their own quirks and needs. I’ve even had experience working with aggressive or anxious cats, as one of my own cats, Leo, can be quite the little spicy guy! I’m comfortable around both small and large animals, and while I may be small myself, I’m mighty when it comes to handling pets. I’m patient, attentive, and respectful of each pet’s boundaries, and I’ll always take the time to make sure they feel safe and comfortable. Whether your pet needs a quick potty break, a walk, some playtime, a meal, a clean litter box, or simply some company while you’re away, I’d be happy to give them the same care and attention I’d want someone to give my own pets. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your furry family member is in good hands! I’m currently working a 9-5 in Glenview, available weekends, flexible Monday and Fridays (wfh days), I’m able to visit after work! Just let me know what you need and I’ll make sure you and your babies are taken care of. I always respect each pet’s boundaries and follow their owner’s instructions and routines. I make sure their basic needs are taken care of, while also giving them plenty of attention, playtime, and affection if they’re comfortable with it. I’ll get everything that needs to be done done, but I also like to go above and beyond—whether that means spending a little extra time with them, giving them some extra playtime, or sending updates and photos so their owners know they’re happy and cared for.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Streamwood choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
