“We had such a wonderful experience, this was our second time leaving Korra with Kim, and once again she was amazing. She took excellent care of Korra, and her communication was great, which gave us complete peace of mind. Kim truly went above and beyond; she even got Korra a Christmas gift, which meant so much to us. We’re incredibly grateful and would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend!”
“Maria is the absolute best! We have worked with Maria a few times and she is our favorite resource for boarding. She is outstanding with our 2 dogs. One of my boys is a senior and requires gentle care. Maria goes above and beyond to meet the needs of my boy. She is so communicative and cordial. Truly the gold standard!”
“Gabriela and Richard were so kind and sweet with my toy poodle! They even took her on little adventures to get doggie ice cream and nice walks around the neighborhood, aside from plenty of outside time in their own fenced-in backyard! Gabriela was super great about texting updates and super cute pics of my girl! And they even got her to eat a good bit while I was away even though she usually tries to go on a hunger strike in my absence. Gabriela met us for like 15 mins at the local park before boarding and got to know my dog and garner some info from me, which I really appreciated and not a lot of boarders do that! My girl was very happy when I picked her up and I would absolutely rebook Gabriela and Richard! Highly recommend!”
“Deb and Doug did a wonderful job taking care of our pup (and us)! We have never left her with a non-family member before, and they put everyone at ease with an initial meet and greet. During our trip, they were communicative and sent daily updates and photos letting us know how everything was going.”
“Laurianne and Sven were amazing! They sent updates and pictures each day and I felt like my pup was in good hands the whole time. Will definitely be using them again on future trips!”
“Cindy was so loving and gentle with Diamond. Diamond came home so peaceful. I will definitely book again with her. Thank you for treating our fur baby as your own. And thank you for your flexibility with our trip.”
“Andrea was my first sitter on Rover. It couldn't be better. After meeting her and her family I went very calmly on my vacation. Athena would stay with her again without a doubt.”
“Beryl was great to work with, and I would definitely want to book her again. She is organized and prompt in her communication and super reliable with rover responsibilities. Plus the dog (s) were a big fan of hers as well. They knew they were safe and well-cared for. Thanks Beryl!”
“Brian did a fantastic job watching my dog, including giving medication 2x per day, and dealing with her anxiety being away from home. He was also flexible and accomodating when my travel plans unexpectedly fell through. Would definitely use Brian again in the future!”
“Our two girls, Elizabeth and Scout, were cared for wonderfully by Suzanne. On our first meet and great prior to boarding, our girls took to Suzanne immediately, this was GREAT to see since we booked a sixteen night stay! Elizabeth needed to have oral medication twice daily and Suzanne was happy to make sure Elizabeth's needs were met. We were pleased with how well our girls got along with Suzanne's new puppy, Harley ?, and her fenced-in yard provided a safe outdoor space for our girls to hang out. Suzanne was great at sending photos and videos, to keep us updated on how our girls were doing throughout our trip. When we picked our dogs up, we found two very happy girls, that had a great time in Suzanne's care. We highly recommend Suzanne for your dog sitting or boarding needs, as she really seems to have a way with dogs.????”
“Janette and Charles are the greatest. We were anxious about leaving our dog with a new sitter while on vacation for a week, but based on the daily photos and videos they shared with us, our dog Stevie had a terrific time. Stevie enjoyed playing in their huge fenced in yard with other dogs and snoozing on the couch after running around all day. Janette and Charles took great care of our fur baby and we will be sure to book with them again soon.”
“Arlene is the best! I didn't worry about my little Ozzy at all. I think he had a vacation at her house! LOL I'll be asking her to watch my pup in the future for sure. Thank you, Arlene!”
“Simply THE Best. Zara is cared for so well, I’m surprised she comes home sometimes!!! 😍 Greatly appreciate the attention to detail, lots of Play time, Expert Dog training reccos and friendly prompt communication. We’ll be back next month! 💗”
“Jasmine was one of the best dog sitters I’ve had in the Rover group. It is evident she is an experienced dog sitter as well as owner. She was caring and sensitive to all the particular needs and and concerns of my dog. I felt comfortable and confident in having Freddy in her care.”
“Christian was very professional. He was responsive and inn time when he picked up Bonnie. He sent pictures of her while she was in his cage and she genuinely seemed comfortable and content. He followed instructions for her feeding. And he brought her back on time, safe and happy. Would his him again and recommend him.”
“I'm always nervous going out of town because our pup has some quirks. Maria was warm and welcoming and our dogs immediately hit it off. I felt relaxed the whole trip because I could see how much she loved dogs, and knew so much about their behaviors and interactions. We will definitely be booking her again!”
“Frankie had an amazing stay with Julia. She was very attentive and took great care of him. Also, she was great at communicating with us and making us feel comfortable, knowing that he was doing great. Highly recommended!”
“Ruben was amazing taking care of Alfredo and Frida, he was always updating about the day of my dogs. Is good to know that we have someone to stay with them so responsible.”
“Courtney was terrific with my dog. My dog has anxiety and doesn't eat good when I'm away. Courtney went above and beyond to help her eat. She's very laid back which is what my dog needs. Really knows her dog stuff as her career has always been working with dogs plus her vet tech degree. I would recommend her to anyone.”

“Karli was great! ! Karli gave me a very detailed update and very detailed pictures of each cat. I appreciate how many pictures Karli took, it made me feel comfortable knowing my cats are out and safe! Karli was extremely responsive and flexible, and Karli helped us out last minute. Karli scooped my liter, fed my cats wet food, played laser, and plugged my camera in as a favor. I would highly recommend Karli to watch anyone’s pets”
“Katherine did a wonderful job dropping in for Yogi while we were away. He had an amazing time playing and getting plenty of pets. We would absolutely reach out to Katherine again in the future. Thank you again!”
“Chris made me feel at ease about leaving my cat with a sitter, which was something I really worried about. She sent great updates and pictures and clearly had a great time hanging out and playing with my little cuddle monster.”
“It is so easy to leave town knowing Colleen is taking care of my baby girl! Zora is generally a shy cat, but really opens up to Colleen, who makes sure she gets her oral meds, even though she hates it! My go to sitter, so grateful to have her!”
“Our baby angels are happy and healthy thanks to Amanda's attention. She dealt with litter boxes and everything and always sent only the best photos. Would recommend 10/10”
“Heather is Amazing with our Fur babies!! She treats them both like her own :) I would highly recommend her to anyone who needs help with their fur babies!! Thanks again so much for all your help!!”
“Jackie took great care of my cat Pepper! She sent daily updates and photos, which kept me totally at ease. She was also really flexible when my flight was delayed and pickup ran late. Highly recommend booking with her!”
“Kelly did a fantastic job watching my two six month old kittens. She went above and beyond and cleaned the litter box each day without being asked. My kitties were very happen when I got home, and I know they loved Kelly. She sent lots of photos of them while I was away which put my mind at ease. I would highly recommend using Kelly as your sitter! I will be booking her again in the future! Thanks Kelly!”
“Keri was very easy to work with and quick with responses. Our interaction with her during a meet and greet leading up to a house sitting has also led us to recommend Rover to more people. She has done drop in visits for our cats and we are very pleased with her care.”
“Rhianna was very communicative and provided great updates about Momo. She was also very kind and flexible with rescheduling the meet and great due to family illnesses and modifying the visit when our geriatric girl passed prior to the trip. She went above and beyond my expectations including cleaning the litter boxes more frequently, tidying around the litter boxes, food area, and Momo's vomit/hairballs.”
About: I grew up with cats, and have taken care of the cats of friends/family at various points in my life. I have had multiple kittens in my home and learned how to connect with cats to all personalities.
“Camille was very communicative, was great with small requests I had and sending photos daily! My cats were happy and healthy when I returned home from my trip.”
“Karina is very communicative and took good care of our cat, who can be skeptical of strangers. But she accepted Karina really quickly. From the video and picture shared with us, you can tell Karina knows how to approach animals and makes our cat comfortable with her. We appreciate Karina keeping our cat company while we are away.”
About: My husband and I have always been dog people. Growing up he had two labradors and I had a beagle. When we bought our house we adopted a senior lab. We spoiled him as much as we could and loved him unconditionally. After losing Ceasar two years ago, we walked into an animal shelter and that's where our baby, Uru-Kai, stole our hearts. I don't work on weekends, I have holidays off and the summer off. I already have a dog so I know how important it is to stick to a routine. Our current dog goes out on four walks a day. If he needs to go potty because he drank too much water we let him in the back yard. If he seems bored he rings the doorbell to be let in the backyard. When we need to leave the house our dog is put in his crate to ensure that he's safe and stays out of trouble while we're gone.

“Hands down one of the best sitters EVER! My cuddle bug had been going to her previous sitter for about 5 months and was still trying to warm up to them. However, after a week with Jonelle, Gina was wiggling her butt ready to go. One day she just walked into Jonelle's house without turning back to say bye or to whine. She's truly amazing and makes sure your dogs are treated as part of her family. Her family is just as great about letting your dog have space and build up comfort to bond with them. If you want someone who has great communication, is compassionate, and loves on your dogs (to the point you might consider your dog a traitor) then Jonelle is absolutely the person for you. All around a great person and sitter.”
“Sasha is great! I have an unpredictable work schedule that she was totally willing to accommodate. She has a great personality and is a good pack leader for the dogs. Her house is an inviting environment with a nice backyard for the pups to run around in.”
“Jackie saved the day, offering to sit for my dog CoCo when the other sitter failed to come through for me. She is kind, thoughtful, responsible, and communicative, and I love her Black Cat! I recommend her whole-heartedly. :)”
“Arlene was such a blessing. She took our 10 month old puppy for a day. She is a ball of energy and Arlene was kind and patient with her. She was good at communicating and drop off/pick up was easy.”
“We could not ask for a better first experience. Tanya took excellent care of our new puppy. From potty breaks to play times she was there with him sending updates and pics. We were able to enjoy our night knowing he was in good hands. Thanks again.”
“I was traveling to Chicago for an event and booked Andrea to watch my dog at her home during the day. From day one while trying to book with her, communication was quick and simple. Once I dropped my dog off at her home, I could already tell she was very attentive. All the pictures and videos she sent me during the day showed my dog was so happy and enjoying herself at her place. Not only she took great care of my baby, but also made sure to keep me at ease with my Izzy being over at her home. I highly recommend her and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again if I’m around the area.”
“I need a pet sitter when my dog had a surgery and have to wear a cone . Camille took Benny on a short notice. He had a great time with her and her husband Joe . He came home happy and exhausted from playing and walking. I cannot thank her enough for all the love and care they provided Benny during his stay. We are lucky to have found her . I have already recommended her to my friends . Benny will sure come back.”
About: I’ve cared for 7 dogs and 2 cats throughout their full life span, from puppyhood and kittenhood to senior years, including pets with special senior care needs. I’m confident handling large dogs and focus on structured walks, mental stimulation, and enriching playtime. As a psychotherapist, patience, intuition, and compassionate care come naturally to me. My schedule is very flexible I'm currently part time and work from home. I can be available on notice from 9am-10pm. I am able to do daily and weekly care/walking/play. I have a fenced yard. Two cats who are used to visitors and other animals. I can also crate animal if requested, use baby fence and adapt to living requirements specific to client needs.
“1st impressions is everything. It was Friday and we needed a puppy sitter on Sunday for Kira. Our first time using Karina and she took our Kira with open arms and a smile. Taking care of Kira included not just feeding and potty breaks, but also socializing with her dogs and a couple of videos of play time. THATS LOVE! Highly recommend her for puppy/dog parents who want a pleasant experience for that special member in the family. When we took Kira home, she was so exhausted from the fun she had with the other dogs, she was asleep for the rest of the night.”
About: Hi, my name is Rick. I would like to start by saying my schedule is extremely flexible, as I am recently retired from the Office of the Chief Judge, Circuit Court of Cook County. My family and I have a home that has plenty of space to accommodate your pet. We have an 11-year-old son and also have three small dogs of our own that are extremely friendly, playful, up-to-date with all of their shots, and in great health. I believe pets complete a home. I am extremely passionate and enthusiastic about the care and needs of all types of animals. My experience in Pet Care began from having my own pets and caring for the ones of family and friends over a span of 40 plus years. I have also fostered a few dogs over the years. I have a substantial amount of experience with cats, guinea pigs, bunnies, hamsters, turtles, fish and so many others. My goal is to ensure your comfort and confidence, knowing that your pet will be loved and cared for as if it were our own. Should your pet require any medical attention or medication I am completely capable of providing this service, while in my care. We hope you consider us. I look forward to providing a caring, efficient service for your pets. My schedule is extremely flexible, as I am recently retired. For the exception of dropping off and picking up my son from school I am home all day to provide attention and care for your pet. I have a large yard with a privacy fence and three friendly, small dogs to keep your pup company. If preferred, I can easily crate your dog if needed.
About: As a child of a mother who was raised on a farm, we always had dogs, cats, bunnies, hamsters, gerbils, fish and birds growing up. As an adult that trend continues. Since 2012 I've been involved in dog rescue. Between volunteering at Chicago Animal Control and Care and fostering dogs with ALIVE Rescue, Be Fido's Friend and One Tail at a Time, I've learned a lot about animal health, happiness, welfare, training, dog introductions, play, etc. I started my Rover business while my now deceased and beloved Pit Bull, Stella, was battling cancer. The bills were mounting and doggie daycare has been a blessing. Stella loved the doggie company and I was able to provide quality care for her. Fast forward a couple years later and I now have regular clients and a new ones that love my testimonials. We're open for business and are excited to meet your beloved fur family members. Your dog will be lovingly cared for while staying with me. **PS - if I'm not available the dates you need, message me anyway. We'll discuss your pet and I may be able to make an exception. Also, if you're looking for a few hours a day daycare, please message me. Options! Thank you. I have worked full time from my home for years, and have routines in place that my pack and visiting dogs appreciate. We have plenty of breaks during the day for a backyard play and sunshine in my fenced back yard. During inclement weather, we have a basement play area. With 11 years experience fostering every demographic of dog, I have the experience to assure my fur baby guests are safe, needs met and are happy. I have a detailed client profile that I ask my client's parents to complete that helps me to provide the very best environment based on their unique needs. I am unable to accept unneutered males (medical exceptions may apply). Dogs must be dog and human friendly. For the most part, we are a cage free environment where doggie guests are able to interact and be safely socialize with each other.
“My Shih Tzu, Coco had his first visit with Erica and her family. He was very excited to meet them and he had a great time. I got photos that reassured me he was happy and didn't seem to show any of the separation anxiety he has had. I'm happy to recommend Erica and Ricardo to all and I am definitely adding them to my list of fave Rover people.”

About: Caring for a pet means much more to me than simply feeding them and taking them for walks. I enjoy getting to know their personality, respecting their routine, and making sure they feel calm, safe, and loved while they are in my care. I am responsible, patient, and very attentive to each pet parent’s instructions. I understand that every pet has their own needs, habits, and preferences, which is why I carefully follow the instructions I’m given and maintain regular communication so you can feel at ease while your pet is with me. I offer walks and care for both dogs and cats, whether in my home, in the pet’s home, or during walks. I especially enjoy spending time outdoors with dogs and paying attention to the little details, such as their behavior, eating habits, energy levels, and overall comfort. I also like to keep pet parents updated throughout the stay, sending photos and updates when appropriate. My goal is for your pet to receive personalized care and for you to have peace of mind knowing they are in good hands. I work part-time, which gives me enough flexibility to dedicate time and attention to the pets in my care. When you’re away from home, I can keep your pet company, play with them, give them plenty of affection, take them for walks, and keep their routine as close as possible to what they are used to at home. I also offer daycare in my home and overnight care, depending on each pet’s needs. I want them to feel comfortable, safe, and cared for, just as they would at home, while their families are away. In my home, pets are part of the family. I have a large, fully fenced and secure yard with a small grassy area where they can go outside, play, and enjoy some fresh air. Inside the home, they have a comfortable and safe environment where they can relax and spend time with the family. I want pets to feel at home and be part of our family life, so I do not use crates as part of their daily routine. They are free to move around the safe areas of the house and yard, always taking into consideration their personality, needs, and their owner’s instructions. I have a one and a half year old Yorkie who is part of our family and is used to enjoying the house and yard freely. Of course, whenever I care for another pet, I respect their boundaries, energy level, and any special instructions provided by their family. If I care for your pet in your home, I maintain their usual routine and carefully follow your instructions regarding feeding, walks, playtime, rest, and any other needs. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, accompanied, loved, and at home while you are away.
“I’m that paranoid puppy parent who always thinks the worst- but David and his fiancée were super kind and communicative the whole time. It was great to know my puppy was in good hands- They were also very considerate of the heat today and made sure Machi stayed safe and hydrated! I’m very grateful to them and will definitely use them again in the future. Thank you!!!”
“Valerie was awesome! We needed someone to walk Pepper Ann and let her spend part of the day outside while we were on a day trip. Communication was excellent throughout, and Valerie’s interaction with Pepper Ann was great too. Would definitely book her again.”
About: We are a couple (Brian and Juli ) in Portage Park, Chicago who added our toy poodle Finn to our family in September 2023. We would love to watch your fur baby (dog, cat or surprise us) as well! We both grew up with dogs and cats in our home and we have completed puppy and intermediate training from Petsmart and can apply those skills with your pet as needed. We are able to walk your dog as much as needed during their stay, just let us know. We both work full-time jobs Monday through Friday, but both work from home. We charge $50 per every 24 hour period that we watch your pet. We have a spacious house where we can accommodate your pet and have a fenced in back yard. As mentioned, we have a young, friendly toy poodle who will always be with us, so we hope your dog or cat is willing to be around him.

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I have owned and cared for 7 dogs, as well as cats, a snake, and fish, giving me experience with a variety of pets and their unique needs. I am comfortable caring for puppies, adult dogs, senior pets, and cats, and I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and attention to detail when it comes to pet care. Whether your pet needs daily walks, feeding, playtime, companionship, or care while you’re away, I will treat them as if they were my own. I am reliable, attentive, and genuinely enjoy building trust with both pets and their owners. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free experience so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands. I work full-time and maintain a structured schedule, which allows me to provide dependable and consistent pet care during my available hours. I am committed to being reliable, punctual, and communicative with every client. I welcome recurring clients and would enjoy building long-term relationships with pet owners and their pets. My availability is listed in my profile, and I will always make every effort to accommodate scheduled services and maintain a consistent routine.

“Karina went above and beyond for my baby! She took him for a good walk and was very patient with him. Sending me pictures and texting me while whe was there. So thank you! Thank you again Karina”
About: Hi there! My name is Kaitlin and I live in Chicago. I have had dogs all my life, but currently don’t have a dog of my own right now. I have 19 years of experience working with furry friends. I love long walks and playing with pups and cats! Please feel free to reach out and hopefully we can arrange a house sit or boarding at my place. My schedule is very flexible so I am able to play with your dog often throughout the day and take them on walks. I look forward to hearing from you! I truly enjoy and look forward to caring for animals. Although I work part-time during the week, I can easily adapt to your pet's needs. On weekend days, I can spend more quality time with your pet as I don’t work my day job. I do try to structure my schedule around your pet’s walking/feeding schedule. I believe it’s best to keep the routine as consistent with their typical routine as possible. Your fur baby is my top priority. They will have a fun time with me as we take multiple walks per day and snuggle endlessly.
“We love Hillary. I am able to walk Charlie myself now but as we (Charlie and I) would miss Hillary terribly, we decided to ask her to walk Charlie two days a week. Luckily, she accepted. See? That's how wonderful she is to us.”
About: Hi! Im Cailey. Im a sophomore in college studying to become a veterinarian. I previously worked at a pet hotel for two years as a daycare attendant, groomer, and reactive dog handler. I am comfortable with breeds of all sizes and temperaments. While working at the pet hotel I was also trained on how to administer various medications both oral and injection, and I was trained in pet cpr and how to read the body language of a dog. I have three large breed dogs of my own, two of which I took to professional trainers and my most recent rescue I trained myself. I am not a professional trainer but I am quite educated on the subject! Please reach out for any grooming, pet care, or training inquires! Thank you. My dogs wake me up every morning around 7-8 to go potty and for breakfast. I take one or two of my dogs each morning to run with me. I live right next to a park we usually do two laps of. After then my dogs pretty much entertain each other until dinner time. In other peoples homes I treat them as if they were my own! Well talk everything over in person of course but just leave me detailed instructions and I will do my best to follow them to a T!
About: I've been around animals my whole life, so caring for pets comes naturally to me. I currently have a cat and a dog, and I've also raised five puppies, which gave me plenty of hands-on experience with potty training, socialization, and creating healthy routines. I'm available Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 3:00 PM, with open availability on weekends. I'm happy to accommodate morning visits, midday drop-ins, and weekend pet care whenever possible. I care for every pet as if they were my own. In a client's home, I make it a priority to stick to their pet's normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and any special instructions. I always make sure pets have fresh water, plenty of attention, and a safe, comfortable environment. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind while they're away.

“Gabriela and Richard were so kind and sweet with my toy poodle! They even took her on little adventures to get doggie ice cream and nice walks around the neighborhood, aside from plenty of outside time in their own fenced-in backyard! Gabriela was super great about texting updates and super cute pics of my girl! And they even got her to eat a good bit while I was away even though she usually tries to go on a hunger strike in my absence. Gabriela met us for like 15 mins at the local park before boarding and got to know my dog and garner some info from me, which I really appreciated and not a lot of boarders do that! My girl was very happy when I picked her up and I would absolutely rebook Gabriela and Richard! Highly recommend!”
“Laurianne and Sven were amazing! They sent updates and pictures each day and I felt like my pup was in good hands the whole time. Will definitely be using them again on future trips!”
“Andrea was my first sitter on Rover. It couldn't be better. After meeting her and her family I went very calmly on my vacation. Athena would stay with her again without a doubt.”
“Beryl was great to work with, and I would definitely want to book her again. She is organized and prompt in her communication and super reliable with rover responsibilities. Plus the dog (s) were a big fan of hers as well. They knew they were safe and well-cared for. Thanks Beryl!”
“Simply THE Best. Zara is cared for so well, I’m surprised she comes home sometimes!!! 😍 Greatly appreciate the attention to detail, lots of Play time, Expert Dog training reccos and friendly prompt communication. We’ll be back next month! 💗”
“Jasmine was one of the best dog sitters I’ve had in the Rover group. It is evident she is an experienced dog sitter as well as owner. She was caring and sensitive to all the particular needs and and concerns of my dog. I felt comfortable and confident in having Freddy in her care.”
“Christian was very professional. He was responsive and inn time when he picked up Bonnie. He sent pictures of her while she was in his cage and she genuinely seemed comfortable and content. He followed instructions for her feeding. And he brought her back on time, safe and happy. Would his him again and recommend him.”
“I'm always nervous going out of town because our pup has some quirks. Maria was warm and welcoming and our dogs immediately hit it off. I felt relaxed the whole trip because I could see how much she loved dogs, and knew so much about their behaviors and interactions. We will definitely be booking her again!”
“Ruben was amazing taking care of Alfredo and Frida, he was always updating about the day of my dogs. Is good to know that we have someone to stay with them so responsible.”
“Courtney was terrific with my dog. My dog has anxiety and doesn't eat good when I'm away. Courtney went above and beyond to help her eat. She's very laid back which is what my dog needs. Really knows her dog stuff as her career has always been working with dogs plus her vet tech degree. I would recommend her to anyone.”
“Camille was incredibly kind, patient and understanding not only with calzone (aka cannoli) but also with pick up and drop off times. Her home is beautiful and welcoming and she took calzone on lots of walks. Thank you so much for everything!”
“Nic took such good care of Bailey! Nic was so responsive, sent so many pictures, and was so sweet! Bailey got so much love and went on so many walks! I would recommend Nic to anyone and everyone!”
“Angel took great care of Bean while we were gone for our extended vacation. He was very flexible on dates/times and communicative about how my dog Bean was doing while away.”
“Sasha is the best! Highly recommend, Merlin was sad to leave because he had so much fun. Sasha kept us posted and was super responsive while we were out of town.”
“Can't say enough thanks to Jorge and Lake. After my travel plans unexpectedly changed, they were able to keep my dog an extra night. I truly appreciate their flexibility and love that they embrace my high energy pup!”
“Lauren, and her family, were so kind, communicative and caring for our old boy! We couldn’t have been happier with Aspen’s care and are so grateful he was in such great hands!”
