Simply put, Dwight is everything you’d want in a dog sitter. He works from home, has a yard, and makes sure the dogs have a lot of activity. He is incredibly responsive and sends great photos to keep you updated. Beyond that, he’s just an awesome guy. I have a demanding schedule and he is incredibly flexible and willing to accommodate. Will use over and over again.

Kamiah and Casius were great sitters for Bailey. For me, it was a very last minute booking and Kamiah was incredibly accommodating to make it work. She was also very quick to contact us on the first day when Bailey wasn't eating (but everything was fine, as this is how Bailey always is at a new place), and Bailey looked very happy in the photos and videos we got each day. Also, Kamiah's pick-up and drop-off were prompt and efficient. I definitely plan to use them again!

Bernie’s hosts were wonderful, especially in the unflustered and caring way they dealt with a transportation crisis my wife and I had. They made me feel like they would have happily made extra room in their family for another week as cooly as they did for an extra day. Bernie is an untroubled, self-confident old girl who enjoys human and canine company, and this was a great environment for her with very nice dog-loving people.

You and your family were truly wonderful. Thank you so much for embracing my fur baby and making him feel right at home. The constant reassurance, the beautiful pictures, and the updates meant more to me than you know. I could tell he was being loved and well cared for the entire time. You were also incredibly flexible and attentive, which I truly appreciate. I’m so grateful for the care you gave — we will definitely be back! A++++++++

He kept us well informed and accommodated our schedule. Bernie would go back in a heartbeat, I’m sure, and we would be happy knowing she was in good hands.

Iman is so lovely! I am a new dog mom of a 2 yr old husky that I adopted from the South Suburban Humane Society. I was nervous about leaving my dog as it was my first time leaving her with a sitter and I didn’t know how she’d react staying overnight with other dogs. Iman reassured me that everything would be fine and gave me updates. She even gave me samples of dog treats, that my KoKo loved. I’ll definitely use her services again.

I was so nervous about using a dog sitter for my 2 fur babies. I was especially concerned about my youngest dog who we adopted from an animal shelter because she is fearful of people she doesn’t know. MariaJose quickly put my mind and heart at ease. She boarded Prince and Bella for a week. Not only did she send messages to let me know they were doing well, she also sent pictures and videos. My babies were happy and well taken care of. I definitely recommend her as a sitter.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs in my home my entire life, so caring for dogs has always been a big part of who I am and I truly love spending time with them! I have experience walking, feeding, playing with, and caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities. I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your dog, so I treat every pup like they’re my own. Whether your dog is staying with me for the day or just needs a walk, I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and, of course, lots of love and cuddles! I’m dependable, patient, and attentive, and I’m always happy to follow your dog’s normal routine and any specific instructions you provide. My goal is for both you and your pup to feel comfortable, safe, and happy while they’re in my care! 🐾 I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available for pet care throughout the week! I’m happy to provide daytime care, walks, drop-ins, and plenty of attention throughout the day. As a teacher, my schedule may change once the school year begins, but I plan to continue offering pet care before and after school, in the evenings, and on weekends. I’m flexible and happy to work with you to find a routine that works best for your pet! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine, feeding schedule, walking preferences, and any specific instructions you provide. When caring for dogs in my home, I’ll make sure they have a comfortable, safe environment with plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and opportunities to relax. I’m also happy to accommodate crates, special routines, or other needs to help your dog feel as comfortable and at home as possible.

Valeria is wonderful. She welcomed our baby in and took great care of our pup Peanut. She even noticed a sore on her mouth because she gave such good cuddles and petting. She was flexible and kind. Highly reccommend.

About: I grew up in a multi pet home and learned to walk, train and groom pets from a young age. I cared for the last family dog through her medically tedious senior years. Through college I pet sat and walked for friends and family. For 2 years I worked for a veterinary clinic, although my job was marketing I often was asked to assist with holding and monitoring patients. When I became a pet owner I adopted puppies raising them through potty and crate training. I am proud to say they continue to be healthy and happy. Now we foster and pet sit dogs of all ages and sizes because of the dog friendly environment we’ve created at home. My success in pet lies with gaining the pets trust. I approach them slowly and go at their pace, sitting and waiting on the ground if necessary. I am pet sitting and walking full time so I have plenty of time to dedicate to my clients! Dogs are typically walked and out between 7am and 9pm. I have a fully fenced yard with ample room for running and playing. There are four resident dogs who are friendly and used to guests. We can crate your pup or have them sleep in a bed or in bed with me. Water is available at all times through a 2 gallon water dispenser.

About: Having my own dog, I know first hand that dogs are precious family members who need a lot of love and care and, and each dog had different needs. I have had my own dog for 3 years and previously cared for many of my friends’ and relatives’ dogs. I have training experience having gone through classes with my own dog. I am excited to meet new dogs and make sure they are happy and healthy while in my care! I currently work from home and I can be flexible throughout the day Mon-Thurs , but evenings or early mornings work best for me. I can also be flexible on Fridays and weekends. I have a friendly dog who likes to play but also understands when other dogs need space. I can crate my dog or set up the baby gate to keep them separated if needed.

Karlee is amazing! I don’t have enough good things to say. She made sure Winston was comfortable and was so patient with his shyness. She’s a great communicator and I love that she sends updates with pictures throughout the day. It was scary for us to leave Winston with someone he didn’t know but Karlee made it so easy for us and we’re so grateful <3

We used Sani and her husband through Rover for our puppy Tilly and couldn’t be happier. We had them watch Tilly over Lollapalooza weekend, and they were so flexible with our drop off and pick up times, which took a lot of stress off an already hectic weekend. They also sent us tons of pictures and updates throughout, which we loved getting. Tilly always was always excited to get dropped off with always made us feel better dropping her off. We’ll definitely be booking again!

About: I have experience caring for both energetic dogs who need structure and movement, as well as more sensitive pets who benefit from patience, gentle routines, and clear communication.

I pay attention to details, follow instructions carefully, and make sure owners feel fully informed while they’re away. I’m a reliable and attentive weekend pet sitter based in Boston, and I take pride in creating a calm, safe, and caring environment for every animal I look after. I work a full-time remote job during the week, but on weekends I’m fully dedicated to pet care—whether that means long walks, dedicated playtime, or simply keeping your pet company and relaxed at home. As someone who values consistency and trust, I make sure every pet gets thoughtful, individualized attention. Whether your pet needs slow, steady walks, a playful activities, or lots of affection, I’m here to help your weekend feel stress-free.

Despite him growling at her she was patient with him and helped him calm down so she could walk him. She was reliable and understanding. I then asked her if she could come again last minute and without hesitation she agreed! I would definitely work with Kathryn again!

About: I've been a professional pet sitter since 2001. Currently my wife and I own a home in South Chicago, although most of my clients live in Hyde Park. I've been taking care of dogs in the Hyde Park area since college. I went to the University of Chicago. After school I managed a West Loop Doggie Daycare and Kennel. In 2006, I began working for myself and have maintained that as my only source of income. In that time I've cared for all types of dogs, from very old to very young and everything in between. I can also offer services to variety of temperaments and training stages. If we are a fit, my wife and I have two dogs, two cats, and 8 fishes who will be happy to meet you. I also offer training, doggie playgroups, and walks for clients in the area. I'm a full time pet sitter, so dogs will go out at least 5 times a day in a fence and secure yard and will not be left unattended. Dogs will generally spend the day with me and my dogs. I will separate them if I have to leave but generally that won't be for more than a few hours.

About: I’ve taken care of my own dog and cat for 7 years and before then was the go to sitter for all my friends with pets! I’m also a PhD student in psychology working in animal behaviors. Since young, I understand animals and respect them: how we treat them influences their behaviors. I’ve got the heart and the training to give your babies the best care they deserve when you are away! My schedule is flexible as long as we communicate in advance. Mornings work the best at the moment but let me know what you need I’ll try to make it work :) I have a comfy apartment with one dog and one cat. They’ll keep your baby company if you board with us. I’m skilled in introducing new animals to each other, I try to adjust to each animals temperaments. On other visits I try to get to your babies first as well, and of course your tips are always appreciated as you know them the best!

About: Hi there! My name is Callyn. I’m new to Rover, but have been caring for pets for quite sometime now! Originally, my pet sitting started as nannying for little humans. This naturally trickled into me caring for their pets too! I’ve now found myself here to expand my services to the greater Chicagoland. I have extensive hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of pets, including animals with specialized medical and behavioral needs. My experience includes providing daily care and monitoring for cats with diabetes, such as administering medications, tracking dietary requirements, and recognizing changes in health or behavior. In addition to medical care, I am experienced in working with dogs of different temperaments, including those who may be shy, anxious, reactive, or strong-willed. I focus on building trust through patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement techniques. I have also trained dogs in foundational obedience skills, including sit, stay, heel, paw, and proper leash-walking manners. My schedule allows me to accommodate feeding routines, medication administration, exercise needs, potty breaks, and plenty of companionship. Also, LOTS OF TIME FOR PLAYING!! (: I try my best to keep pets on their everyday schedule to help them feel grounded in their owners absence. I’m happy to adjust to what that looks like for them specifically- walks to the park, sunbathing in the yard, or greeting the mailman every day.

Bernie’s hosts were wonderful, especially in the unflustered and caring way they dealt with a transportation crisis my wife and I had. They made me feel like they would have happily made extra room in their family for another week as cooly as they did for an extra day. Bernie is an untroubled, self-confident old girl who enjoys human and canine company, and this was a great environment for her with very nice dog-loving people.

Our Bernie loved staying with Joe. He understands dogs through and through, and maybe even more important, he understands and appreciates the quirks and idiosyncrasies of particular dogs. He kept us well informed and accommodated our schedule. Bernie would go back in a heartbeat, I’m sure, and we would be happy knowing she was in good hands.

Katarina was so patient with Luna and I appreciated the whole process from the intro to the pick up!! She made me and Luna feel extremely welcomed and shared plenty of pictures. I would absolutely use her again and would recommend! 10 out of 10, no notes!

Randall was having stomach issues before being dropped off to Angel. He kept me updated and gave great care. Happiest dog ever after Angel watches him.

Axx enjoyed his stay with Eniya and her various family members! He had some new experiences while there and I was pleased with how well Axx responded. Eniya sent pictures and videos that made me feel comfortable that he was in good hands. Anita is very personable to humans, but she is definitely a dog lover! I’m so happy I’ve found a reliable, competent sitter for our boy!!

Gus has stayed with Iwona countless times, each one better than the last! He is so loved and cared for in Iwona’s home, he pulls me to her front door! Cannot recommend her enough

Cary is amazing. I was updated daily with pictures and my dogs look so happy ! I was a nervous wreck leaving them because this is the first time I’ve boarded them. But that fear is gone and I will definitely be booking again during my next getaway.

Nina and her partner are amazing! This is the second time Goose has gone to them, and we couldn’t be happier. They take great care of him, and we always appreciate the updates and photos. It gives us so much peace of mind knowing he’s in such good hands. Highly recommend!

I was so nervous about using a dog sitter for my 2 fur babies. I was especially concerned about my youngest dog who we adopted from an animal shelter because she is fearful of people she doesn’t know. MariaJose quickly put my mind and heart at ease. She boarded Prince and Bella for a week. Not only did she send messages to let me know they were doing well, she also sent pictures and videos. My babies were happy and well taken care of. I definitely recommend her as a sitter.
