“Tonisha is very kind, flexible, responsive. I missed my drop off window and she was very gracious. She shared daily photos and asked about Langston’s behaviors to ensure he was safe i.e.going on walks, etc. If possible, we hope to work with her again.”
“Shani was the best choice for our fur baby! I was worried about leaving our baby, Stone, for so long, but Shani made me feel comfortable. She sent me pictures and communicated with me continuously throughout the stay. I could see Stone opening up and enjoying himself. I’m so grateful for her loving care and warmth. Shani is definitely like extended family now, and Stone won’t be staying anywhere else. If you care about your fur baby and want them to be well-loved, book with Shani.”
“I can’t say enough great things about Kamiah! She took such amazing care of my dog, Autumn, and made the whole experience stress free for both of us. Autumn absolutely loves her, and it was clear from the start that Kamiah treats her like family. She kept me updated throughout Autumn’s entire stay with plenty of pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was so reassuring to see how happy and comfortable Autumn was in her care. I highly recommend Kamiah to anyone looking for someone reliable, loving, and attentive to care for their fur babies. She’s truly the best!”
“Teddy is our 150lb Bullmastiff and EK and her family welcomed him like the rest of the tiny tots that are looked after daily. She is trustworthy and reliable. We hadn't been on a real vacation in 2yrs we had no issues or worries while gone.”
“Mercedes and her family were absolutely amazing with our dog Bane. I got many pictures while away; all of him being loved. We joked that we might have to kidnap our own dog back because they loved him so much. I’ll definitely be booking with Mercedes again.”
“Janet was a great hostess to our Alice for the extended weekend. She communicates well via the app and answers any questions you have within 10 minutes. She also sends pics of how your dog is doing during the stay. Will definitely be using her again.”
“Great Care! Manuel was professional and caring. He communicated throughout the day, sending updates and pictures. He went above and beyond caring for Levi. She was extremely happy and tired when I picked he up. I would highly recommend Manuel to take care of your Furbaby!”
“Great experience with Kyla, it was my first time using the service for my Teddy and I was really nervous to not have him with family who normally watch him and since my daughter was moving same weekend(who normally has watched him) I said let me read reviews and go with it. Kyla kept me informed on Teddy’s progress with pictures and videos and my boy seemed happy to be there. I will use again in future for upcoming trips.”
“Dwight is amazing with Cooper. He'll be my go-to sitter whenever I need one! He sends great update texts and pics and seems to really care about the dogs he sits watches. He also has a sweet dog and cat himself.”
“Cassandra took great care of my dog Ace during his 4-day stay. I can tell he had a good time hanging out with her dog, Chewy. Cassandra was a pleasure to work with and I hope to use her services again for future boarding.”
“Kendra was so lovely and patient with my dog Maximus. Max has severe separation anxiety, and she showed him so much love and compassion. I could tell right away how much she loves animals and she's very patient and understanding and I fully put my trust in her to watch him again. Thank you so much Kendra!”
“If you want complete peace of mind, book Twanna W. immediately! She recently cared for my senior golden retriever pit mix, H'Raka, for four days and treated him like royalty. She made sure he got plenty of exercise, kept me updated with photos and videos, and followed through with my request and bought him his own bed to make sure he was comfortable. H'Raka loved romping with her two boys and came home incredibly happy. Twanna’s generosity and attentiveness are unmatched. I am so grateful for her and will definitely use her services again!”
“Tanisha is just the best! She takes such good care of Bentley and always communicates throughout his visits. He loves playing with his friend Zuri and has no issues eating, which can be problematic when he’s not with me. To me, that just exemplifies how comfortable he is staying there 😊. The best sitter ever!”
“Our Daisy had a great time at her overnight with Bridget. Bridget was great to work with, excellent communication and sent lots of pics/videos. Definitely recommend.”
“Dominique was AB-SO-LUTE-LY Fabulous!!! She treated my babies like her very own (even calling them by their "cutesy" baby names when she scratched them under their cheeks and behind the ears). She created a safe, loving and clean space for them... allowing them to thrive. Truth be told, I'm kind of jealous that they "took to her" so quickly and didn't miss me more (our first time separated in 11 years). Knowing Dominique was taking such great care of them, made the stressful time I was going through easier to manage. My babies came back, calm,well feldand clean!!! 👍 I will definitely seek out Ms. Dominique again for any and all future pet needs.”
“Iman was a wonderful sitter! I usually take my dog to boarding when I go on vacation but they were all booked so this was a last minute decision I was a bit skeptical of. However Iman made me feel comfortable in choosing her, she kept me updated throughout my time a part from Bentley with lots of photos and videos. She even gave us a parting gift of some fresh wet food for him. Definitely will be rebooking in the future when services are needed. I think Bentley enjoyed himself a lot because as soon as we got home he was sleep like a baby, safe to say he had lots of fun!! Thank you again❤️”

“Veerali was amazing and took wonderful care of all of our cats!!! I had to contact her last minute as we had a death in the family and had to travel out of town on short notice. She made time to do a meet and greet the same day I reached out, and was immediately great with all the cats when she met them.

Not only did she take care of everything we needed for our kitty while we were gone but she went above and beyond to accommodate our kitty’s initial shyness and with Gionna’s patience and knowledge of cats, she was able to get her to come out and play/cuddle too!!!

My weekends are completely open, giving me plenty of time to provide attentive, reliable care. I enjoy staying active, so whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, or simply needs companionship, I’ll make sure they receive the same love and attention I give my own pets back home. Since I currently live in a dorm, I’m unable to provide pet care in my own home. However, I’m happy to care for your pets in the comfort of their own home, where they can stay in a familiar environment. I treat every home with the utmost respect by keeping it clean, organized, and exactly as I found it. I’ll follow your pet’s routine closely, make sure they feel safe and comfortable, and provide plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while you’re away. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing both your pet and your home are in good hands.
About: I’ve had my dog Ace (Cane Corso/Lab mx) for 4 years. Although my family has been fortunate enough to take care of him together, I understand the struggle of finding someone who will care properly for your pet as you do. Pets are our chosen family, and I will ensure your pet is properly cared for. In addition to my dog, I have 3 years of experience in animal husbandry from my previous position as a animal care technician I work another during the week. My most consistent availability is Saturday and Sundays (mornings, afternoons, early evening) for pet sitting and/or walking your pet. I walk my dog 3x a day. I am also sure to change and clean his water bowl multiple times a day. Any special instructions or requests for your pet with be met
About: I Love animals. Especially dogs and cats. I have over 20 years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all kind. Your pet will be staying in my home, so they will have the whole house to themselves. I take extra long walks to the park and the beach often. You will never find anyone more invested in your best friend. Every hour of every day is dedicated to caring for your best friend. I am very active. I go to the gym 5 days a week. Working with dogs and cats gives me what we need in order to stay fit and mental stable. I will have your doggies tired at the end of the day!! The doggies and kitties have the entire house to their self. I have a big home with 4 floors. I also have a large yard that is fenced in and totally secure. No one gets in or out unless I decide to.
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities. Before joining Rover, I regularly used Wag to walk and care for dogs, so I’m familiar with working with different breeds, temperaments, routines, and owner preferences. I’m new to Rover, but not new to dog walking or pet care. I’ve also cared for dogs in my own home and helped friends and family with their pets. I’m comfortable with energetic dogs, senior dogs, shy dogs, and dogs who need a little extra patience and attention. I enjoy long walks, exploring new neighborhoods, and making sure every dog gets the exercise, enrichment, and care they need. I live on Chicago's Far South Side, but most of my clients are in neighborhoods farther north, including Lincoln Park, Fulton Market, and nearby areas. I’m happy to travel for scheduled walks and drop-in visits, so I’m a good fit if you’re looking for a reliable walker or sitter who is willing to come to you. I’m happy to accommodate each dog’s routine, including feeding schedules, medications, special instructions, and plenty of updates while you’re away. Whether your dog needs a quick potty break, a long walk, or a reliable sitter, I’ll treat them like one of my own. Pet care is already a regular part of my daily routine through caring for my own dogs. I’m used to incorporating walks, feeding, play, training, and general care into my day and paying close attention to each dog’s individual needs. I currently work part-time, and I enjoy being active and spending time with animals. I have a fenced-in yard and two friendly dogs of my own, so I’m very comfortable managing dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. When caring for pets in my home, I prioritize safety and make sure all dogs are comfortable with one another. In clients’ homes, I follow their routines and instructions closely and focus on keeping their pets safe, comfortable, and well cared for.
About: I have a genuine love for animals and they can sense that. I have rescued two stray cats. They came at different times to my front porch waiting for something to eat. I adopted the last one and her name is Bonita. As a child, we always had dogs, so my love for them is inmense. For me they are not animals, they are little humans with a huge soul. I work as a freelancer so I have a lot of free time. My schedule is very flexible, so I can accommodate service as long I have one day in advanced notice I have a fenced yard where you dog can play in the company of my sweet and friendly cat. I ca crate your dog if needed. I can walk your dog close to your home. I live close to hyde park, Woodlawn, south chicago, south shore areas where we can walk to different parks or beaches.
About: I’ve had my maltipoo since 2020 and have taken care of dogs since then as well. I’m very organized and attentive to your animals needs! I just moved to Chicago so i have a lot of free time especially during the summer while i look for other jobs. I love having new energy around me at all times :) I have a very safe apartment complex with an enclosed backyard. Lots of toys for them as well to make them feel comfortable! I’m attentive and a very good listener to all of their needs
About: I have experience with dogs with anxiety who use medication, needy/clingy dogs, and dogs with disabilities. I am extremely thorough and patient in case something goes wrong with them and I maintain a calm demeanor at all times. When it comes to instructions, please provide a brief, detailed description of your pet's daily routine and I'll follow it to the letter. I'm currently a graduate student at CSU; summers are a slow period for me. I am more than willing to babysit pets for as many nights, walks, feeding times as needed. During school time I will do walks, feeding visits and the occasional overnight weekend stay. I am committed to your pet's comfort level and will adapt to their schedule to the best of my ability. I will spoil them rotten because I absolutely love all dogs and cats of all shapes and mannerisms. Even if they hate me. If I am confused about anything regarding your pet's behavior, such as licking paws, over-grooming, an increase in urination, I will let you know about it as soon as I see it. I also LOVE talking to the pets so I will have full-on conversations with them. I'm especially good with repeat visits so if you are interested in having a one-time sitter for the next few years, I'm MORE than willing to take up that responsibility. Familiarity is very important with pets and as mentioned before, I am focused on the pet's comfort.
About: I genuinely enjoy being around animals and caring for them. I’ve worked with both young and older pets, and I’m patient, attentive, and make sure they feel safe and comfortable. I stick to their routine and give them the care and attention they need. I also keep owners updated so you always know your pet is in good hands. I’m currently work weekends only, so I will be available throughout the week to care for pets. My schedule is flexible and open, to accommodate your needs. I care for pets by keeping them on their normal routine so they feel comfortable and stress-free. In my home or a client’s home, I make sure they’re fed on time, have fresh water, get walks or playtime, and have a clean, safe space to relax. I pay attention to their behavior and adjust to their needs—whether they’re energetic or more calm. I also respect the client’s home, follow all instructions, and send updates so you always know your pet is safe and doing well.

“Ms Beverly is absolutely amazing, she sent pictures of my baby, which made me and my husband feel at ease. I will definitely be utilizing her service again. If Toodles could talk he was have said by Auntie Beverly ?”
“"Brandon has watched my dog, Cookie, three times now, and each time has been fantastic. He consistently provides excellent care, ensuring Cookie is happy and well-taken care of. I couldn't ask for a better dog sitter and highly recommend Brandon for his reliable and professional service!"”
“I have been going to Bola for quite some time now and she is very accommodating when it comes to my 90 pound Goldendoodle. I truly appreciate her flexibility and support in watching him from time to time as I navigate my first pregnancy,”
“Tonisha is very kind, flexible, responsive. I missed my drop off window and she was very gracious. She shared daily photos and asked about Langston’s behaviors to ensure he was safe i.e.going on walks, etc. If possible, we hope to work with her again.”
“Shani was the best choice for our fur baby! I was worried about leaving our baby, Stone, for so long, but Shani made me feel comfortable. She sent me pictures and communicated with me continuously throughout the stay. I could see Stone opening up and enjoying himself. I’m so grateful for her loving care and warmth. Shani is definitely like extended family now, and Stone won’t be staying anywhere else. If you care about your fur baby and want them to be well-loved, book with Shani.”
“Teddy is our 150lb Bullmastiff and EK and her family welcomed him like the rest of the tiny tots that are looked after daily. She is trustworthy and reliable. We hadn't been on a real vacation in 2yrs we had no issues or worries while gone.”
“Great Care! Manuel was professional and caring. He communicated throughout the day, sending updates and pictures. He went above and beyond caring for Levi. She was extremely happy and tired when I picked he up. I would highly recommend Manuel to take care of your Furbaby!”
“If you want complete peace of mind, book Twanna W. immediately! She recently cared for my senior golden retriever pit mix, H'Raka, for four days and treated him like royalty. She made sure he got plenty of exercise, kept me updated with photos and videos, and followed through with my request and bought him his own bed to make sure he was comfortable. H'Raka loved romping with her two boys and came home incredibly happy. Twanna’s generosity and attentiveness are unmatched. I am so grateful for her and will definitely use her services again!”
“Our Daisy had a great time at her overnight with Bridget. Bridget was great to work with, excellent communication and sent lots of pics/videos. Definitely recommend.”
“Dominique was AB-SO-LUTE-LY Fabulous!!! She treated my babies like her very own (even calling them by their "cutesy" baby names when she scratched them under their cheeks and behind the ears). She created a safe, loving and clean space for them... allowing them to thrive. Truth be told, I'm kind of jealous that they "took to her" so quickly and didn't miss me more (our first time separated in 11 years). Knowing Dominique was taking such great care of them, made the stressful time I was going through easier to manage. My babies came back, calm,well feldand clean!!! 👍 I will definitely seek out Ms. Dominique again for any and all future pet needs.”
“This was our first time leaving our not-quite-two-year-old frenchie with someone other than family. I was a nervous wreck dropping him off. Not even 24-hours later, my nerves were calmed. Sandy is wonderful. She took him for walks, sent texts and pictures, and was honest in how our dog was doing. After seeing them snuggling together in pictures, I could tell he was being well taken care of. I'm already putting our dates together to book her for future dates. I highly recommend. Thank you, Sandy!”
“Ashley is amazing and was able to take my girls on short notice! They love spending time with Ashley and her daughter Marina and I know they are super well cared for! 🐾💜”
About: I've been surrounded by animals my whole life, and I wouldn't have it any other way. At home in Colombia, my house was full of paws: four cats, a shepherd dog, and a beagle before that. I've also pet sat for friends' dogs, including a Yorkie and a Cocker Spaniel. I have a special patience for puppies: the training, the energy, the chaos; I genuinely love it. And since I'm not working right now, your pet gets my full attention, all day long. No rushing home after a shift, just 100% focused, loving care. I live in Hyde Park, right in front of Harold Washington Park, and just minutes from Jackson Park, so long walks and outdoor playtime are always on the menu! I considered studying veterinary but realized I simply can't stand seeing animals suffer, which tells you everything about how much I care. My goal is simple: to make your pet feel as loved as mine do back home. Since I'm currently not working, pet care fits perfectly and naturally into my entire day. I wake up late morning, which means lazy morning cuddles are always on the table, perfect for cats or calm dogs who love a slow start to the day. From there, my day is completely flexible and centered around the pet's routine, whether that's feeding, litter care, playtime at home, or heading out for a walk to Harold Washington Park or Jackson Park, both just minutes from my place. I'm also available for overnight stays, so pets never have to spend the night alone or anxious in an unfamiliar space. At my home in Hyde Park: My apartment is a calm and loving space, no other pets, so your furry friend gets all the attention. I'm home all day, which means no long lonely hours. For cats, I make sure to provide a comfortable, stress-free environment, respecting their need for space and routine. For dogs, living right in front of Harold Washington Park and minutes from Jackson Park means fresh air and walks are always just steps away. I also offer overnight stays, so pets can settle in and feel truly at home. At your home: I understand that many pets, especially cats, feel most comfortable in their own space. When visiting your home, I follow your pet's established routine as closely as possible, feeding schedules, litter care, favorite toys, nap spots. I don't just stop by quickly, I stay long enough for real playtime and genuine connection. In both cases: I treat every pet like my own. Growing up with cats, dogs, and everything in between taught me to read animal behavior, respect their boundaries, and give them the kind of love and patience they deserve. And since my own two cats are waiting for me back in Colombia, I know exactly what it feels like to trust someone with the animals you love most. 🐾❤️
“Booking Jennifer for dog sitting was a fantastic decision. Her attentiveness to my dog gave me complete peace of mind, and her super quick responses to my messages were a huge plus. I'd absolutely choose her again for future sitting needs.”
“She was an amazing choice and Bailey loved being with her and her doggo. If you want a safe sitter and one that will give all their love and attention to them, she is the one! I will most definitely be rebooking again.”
“Ania was great! Very professional, kind and reliable sitter. Simba had a wonderful stay with Ania! Lots of photo/video updates, I can see my dog was truly well taken care of! Will definitely book with her again in a future 💕”
“Timothy was a wonderful sitter ! He shared updates and photos regularly and gave my dog extra food because I didn’t pack enough. He was also very gracious to let me extend my booking on short notice due to travel delays. Highly recommend Timothy and hope we can book with him again !”
“Tamara was absolutely amazing!! She took such great care of Ollie. She was super attentive, patient, and thoughtful throughout his stay. I loved getting the daily photo updates; it really gave me peace of mind while I was away. She accepted my booking on very short notice, which I truly appreciated. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!”
