Clarissa did a very amazing job of watching my dog. My dog got plenty of walks and attention and play time, and was definitely in good spirits when I came to pick her up after this stay. Clarissa is very easy to communicate with and sent me daily updates with pictures on how Coco was doing while with her and I greatly appreciated it. I highly recommend letting your pet stay with Clarissa and will most definitely be contacting her again to watch Coco in the future.

Susan was absolutely wonderful with Jasper. We first met her in August when she watched Jasper for our wedding and she was just delightful. Her dog Isla and Jasper got along so well and Susan even sent us video and photo updates as requested. When we return for another visit with Jasper in October Jasper was so excited, he knew exactly where he was and was ready for some more time with his friends. We highly recommend Susan as a care taker as she is kind, responsive and her love for dogs is just wonderful. Thank you so much Susan and looking forward to the next time

It was a great stay for Gwen! She stayed for a week and a half and I felt great about the care she was getting the whole time. Joerg was flexible and did a nice job communicating. Gwen and Lizzie just played and played - we arrived home and she is totally tired out! Tired puppies are the happiest. Thanks for a great experience! Would book again in a heartbeat!

Roman was Charise’s first ever Rover dog and we were really happy to have connected with her for our 5-day trip. Charise was a great sitter—she sent detailed updates about how Roman was doing with Navi and hope he was settling in while we were away. Her home is very clean and Charise is a very warm and welcoming host. Navi is just the cutest little nugget ever, and I could tell immediately Roman would feel right at home with Charise. Our big GSD is a big baby and throws a bit of a fit every time we leave, but Charise and Navi were patient with him while he warmed up to the idea of us being away—by the time we returned, he was fully integrated into their little family. Roman is allowed on the couch and bed for cuddles, and Charise has a full basement for the dogs to run around and play, a small yard, and she takes them together on long walks. Roman came home fully pooped from a week of playing with Navi and we’ll definitely be using Charise in the future!

About: As a cat owner myself, I understand that every cat has their own personality, routine, and comfort level. I rescued my adult cat from the street and learned firsthand how important patience, trust, and a calm environment are in helping animals feel safe and secure. I also care for an energetic kitten, which has given me experience with both playful younger cats and more independent adult cats. I strongly understand the importance of routine for cats, including consistent feeding schedules and daily care that helps them feel stable and comfortable. I also recognize that when cats are sick or stressed, they often need extra patience, time, and sometimes special care such as medication, dietary adjustments, or simply a calm presence. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I take that responsibility seriously. I will care for your cats with the same attention, patience, and love that I give my own, making their comfort and well-being my top priority.

About: I have been around animals my whole life and have always taken care to watch cues and communication that animals give to make them feel most comfortable and happy! I have also volunteered at animal shelters to take dogs on walks, feed them, and give them one-on-one attention. Pet care will be my sole job this summer, meaning that I will take full responsibility of the jobs I have with your babies. I want them to enjoy their summer just as much as I will! I make sure to give animals undivided attention when I am with them. Housesitting and walking animals is as much an experience for me as it is for them. Their life is too short to not stop and smell the flowers - quite literally in the cases of dog walks!

We are so grateful for the excellent care our cat received while we were away for two weeks over Christmas and New Year’s. Communication was clear and consistent, updates were reassuring, and it was obvious our cat was well cared for and comfortable the entire time. Traveling over the holidays can be stressful, and it was such a relief knowing everything at home was handled with care and reliability. We would absolutely book again and highly recommend.

About: *ABOUT ME* One of my favorite parts of childhood was naming my pet cats (from “Princess Kate” to “Snowball,” the options were endless!). As a shy child visiting friends’ houses, you would find me spending the time in the company of the resident pets. My love for cats has been an anchor in my life. It brings me joy to be with kitties and show them my love! Whether that means stroking their noses, keeping litter boxes clean, or patrolling hairballs. I am highly observant and will adjust to your pets’ energy level and personality. I will eagerly play with your cat or bird-watch through an open window. (And, while I’m not a professional singer, cats seem to like my vibrato). :) *Older Adult Care & Special Skills* In my personal life, my experience in older adult care means I am naturally attentive, gentle, and highly patient. I am respectful of following routines and instructions, making me a perfect fit for senior cats who need a slower pace, comfort, and extra patience. I am fully comfortable following exact food schedules and watching over multiple cats at once. *Your Home and Trust* I treat your cats and your home with respect. I am highly communicative and will enjoy sending pictures to brighten your day.

About: I’ve always had a deep love for animals. Their loyalty, companionship, and energy make them so special, and they deserve the same care and kindness in return. I’ve been around animals my whole life and have hands on experience raising and caring for both dogs and cats. A little bit about me, I live in the Albany Park area and have my own reliable transportation, so I’m dependable and able to get to your pet when needed. I work freelance, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to adjust to your pet’s routine, whether that’s walks, drop ins, or longer stays. What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give to every pet. I treat them like my own and take the time to understand their personality and needs. I’m very patient and comfortable with dogs and cats of all ages, from playful puppies to senior dogs who may need a slower and gentler approach. I also have experience with cats and understand that every pet has their own unique personality and comfort level. Whether your dog or cat loves to be active and go on walks or prefers to stay home and relax, I’m happy to match their energy and make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. I also like to keep owners updated with messages and the occasional cute photo so you can feel at ease while you’re away:) I have a 7 year old Boxer who lives with me. She’s very friendly, loves other dogs, and would be happy to have some company. I’m easy to get along with, responsible, and always do my best to make sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for. If there’s anything specific your pet needs, I’ll always try my best to accommodate. I’d love to be a great match for your furry friend! My work is freelance, so I’m not always tied to a fixed schedule. This means I can plan my day around pet care and be available when your pet needs attention, consistency, or last-minute help. I offer both in-home and at-your-home pet care depending on what works best for you. My home has a secure fenced backyard and is close to a large park for walks and playtime. I also have space available for a crate if your pet needs it, ensuring they stay comfortable and safe during their stay.

About: Hi there! My name is Nicky (he/they) and I’ve been taking care of pets for my neighbors, friends, and family members for upwards of a decade and am commonly regarded as the go-to sitter in my community. I strive to treat every pet (and owner) with the utmost respect and kindness, and I’ll follow your instructions to a T! (The T stands for toe beans 🤓) Currently unemployed due to layoffs in my industry, so I’ll be able to give your fur bestie as much attention as possible! I can do overnights, multiple nights in a row, or just a drop-in/walk; whatever you need - I got you! :) I have a fenced yard in front of my apartment complex so your fur bestie can run free and tire themselves out before beddybye! I can crate your pup if you provide one or they can get some shut-eye on the couch or wherever they’re comfy!

David was great with our pup Chase. He's usually very shy and slow to warm up to people. However he really took to David and Pinto super quickly. David shared pictures and videos of them playing and sleeping throughout the day. I would definitely recommend him for any dogsitting needs.

About: I have been a house and pet sitter since High School while working at a vet’s office and all throughout college and many years after. I love a good pet therapy session to keep stress levels down for me and the animal. I have two cats of my own and know how important it is for them to get interacted with throughout the day when we aren’t around, as well as when we have our own overnight commitments to attend. I would be honored to get to spend a little time with your fur baby when needed! I am a fun loving, easy going, and pet (and treat) giving cat mom who loves both cats and dogs! I can’t wait to meet all the incredibly adorable animals possible through this opportunity. I am quite the stimulating pet parent! My cats even knows some commands and tricks. We love some treat giving, toy searching, and you playing in my house! I work for Rover fulltime, so I am always here. I have enough space, and gates to keep 3-5 dogs at a time, if the family is comfortable with other friendly dogs being in the same house with them. I walk all separately unless they are from the same family or the dogs are really good friends. We take about 5-6 walks a day around the neighborhood ranging between 20-30 minutes depending on the weather of the season, and even have a deck with a piece of “grass” where older pets can use the restroom easily or if it is raining, for a quick potty break. We have water in every room of the house, we love to give treats, have crates and gates for alone time if needed, and there is always an opportunity to sunbathe in our house or on our deck.

About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 12 years. I treat my puppy like a family member and will do the same for yours! Since they are family they are allowed on the couch and will get plenty of belly rubs & cuddles. I work from home. My pup and I go for a walk through the park or around the neighborhood first thing at 7:30 am and then usually breakfast is serve. We go back four our next walk at 11:30/12 then we go out again after work at 5pm. This one’s a longer walk and we follow that with play time and dinner. :) That is followed by cuddles. I will send you super cute updated images so you can see what fun your fur baby is up to :) . I also have a fenced small backyard incase your pup wants to do some light leash free jogging with me.

About: What sets me apart is my patience, reliability, and genuine love for animals. I’ve had dogs my entire life and grew up caring for them by feeding them, walking them, playing with them, and giving them lots of love and attention. I also worked with children for 7 years, which helped me develop strong responsibility, communication skills, patience, and the ability to stay calm and caring in different situations. I understand that every dog has a different personality and needs, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits very well into my daily routine because I’m available throughout the day and enjoy spending time with animals. I’m flexible with walks, drop-in visits, feeding schedules, playtime, and giving pets attention and care. My schedule is open during the day until 3. Unfortunately if no response from pet owners ahead of walk etc I will not walk dog. I care for pets by making sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well attended to at all times. In a client’s home, I follow their routine closely by providing walks, feeding, fresh water, playtime, attention, and any specific instructions requested by the owner. I also make sure pets get plenty of companionship and exercise while keeping their environment clean, calm, and stress free.

About: I'm a playful and fun friend to animals of all kinds! While this app is focused on dogs and cats, I have expeirence with reptiles as well. I'm cool under pressure and can handle hectic environments. The wildest experience I've had was with 3 grown dogs, 8 puppies, and a cat. Best weekend of my life. I have one regular client in the mornings, Mon-Wed. outside of that, I tend to prefer about 5+ days' notice for sits, 2+ for drop-is & walks. I can be flexible when my schedule allows 👍🏾 I'm adaptable and can adopt whatever schedules and routines you specify for your pets. I know it's good for dogs to get some exercise, so I'll play with them as much as I can. (a win-win since it's also good cardio for me!) If they're good with other dogs, we'll go to the dog park! With cats, I find it's best to follow their lead to an extent. I'm observant and will get a good idea of their boundaries quickly.

About: I’ve been around and taking care of pets since my childhood. With older dogs and puppies around my house, I became experienced with caring for animals and ensuring their safety. I love cats and dogs. Being able to make them feel safe and loved is the BEST! Recently, I spent over two year regularly volunteering at a pet shelter working with all type of pets: young and old, small and large, sick and healthy, etc. I am available for boarding, sitting, check-ins, walks, etc. as your schedule needs! My first priority would be making sure that your pet’s needs are met. I have a spacious home for them to play around and relax. With no other pets in the house, they wouldn’t have to worry about interacting with other pets. I live in an apartment complex with a fenced in outdoors space for pet.

Roman was Charise’s first ever Rover dog and we were really happy to have connected with her for our 5-day trip. Charise was a great sitter—she sent detailed updates about how Roman was doing with Navi and hope he was settling in while we were away. Her home is very clean and Charise is a very warm and welcoming host. Navi is just the cutest little nugget ever, and I could tell immediately Roman would feel right at home with Charise. Our big GSD is a big baby and throws a bit of a fit every time we leave, but Charise and Navi were patient with him while he warmed up to the idea of us being away—by the time we returned, he was fully integrated into their little family. Roman is allowed on the couch and bed for cuddles, and Charise has a full basement for the dogs to run around and play, a small yard, and she takes them together on long walks. Roman came home fully pooped from a week of playing with Navi and we’ll definitely be using Charise in the future!

Ian is extremely reliable and communicative. He has watched our dog Evie twice, and we have had no issues whatsoever. He watches multiple dogs at a time, knows a lot of them well from past stays, and is great about making sure the dogs are safe together - Evie has never had any issues with the other dogs and has a great time at his house. She is always well taken care of including daily walks. He also sends pictures multiple times a day and gives frequent updates. He is an outstanding dog sitter - I cannot recommend him highly enough and plan to book with him many times in the future

Jennifer was great! She was so sweet to Hazel, clearly treated her like one of the family. She sent us plenty of updates and pictures that reassured us that Hazel was doing well while we were out of the country, and getting along with her dog Tiny. We would absolutely leave Hazel in Jennifer’s care again.

Carla and her roommate took such great care of my girl. I had to find care last minute before a trip, and Carla was available and accommodating. She sent regular updates and great pics. Both my dog and I were really happy with Carla and definitely plan to use her again!

Amazing sitter! Our puppy had a great time and was calm, tired and happy when we picked him up. Thank you for all the pictures and for being so flexible. Definitely coming back!

Abigail and Chris were so wonderful! We are always nervous to leave Vino as she's old, deaf and set in her ways but after the the initial meet and greet, we knew we found a great fit! Vino seemed very comfortable and bonded with them quickly (and even tolerated host dog Olive). Abigail and Chris also didn't hesitate with all of Vino's meds and special food. We've already booked them again for a trip next month. Thank you so much for taking such good care of our sweet girl!

This was Roisins second stay with Tammy and she had a great time. Tammy creates a lovely environment for the dogs she cares for and I feel lucky to have found her!

This was my first long trip away since getting Clifton and I was so lucky to find Jeff and Ron. They gave great updates and took great care of Clifton. I picked him up and he was happy and calm! Will not hesitate to send Clifton back for a stay.
