“Ella is kind, enthusiastic, and responsive and took great care of our 11 mo old dog! This was our first time using Rover, and I would absolutely recommend Ella to care for a friend’s beloved pet.”
“Rizwan and Noorjahan were so great with my dog Oliver. I had a family emergency while also being away and they were patient and accommodating with me arranging this short notice sitting. I really appreciated their policies that align with my dog’s needs, their communication, photos, and their kindness. I felt very comfortable knowing Oliver was being cared for by them.”
“Kaz and Akemi recently took care of our two dogs and we could not be happier with the care they received. We received multiple updates daily with pictures and videos. They obviously love dogs and made them feel at home right away. We would not hesitate to use them again!”
“Five very waggy stars for Meghan (and her sweet pup, Ralphie)! Meghan is absolutely incredible. From the moment we arrived, it was clear that she is a true dog lover with tons of experience, and she knew exactly how to make our dog feel safe, happy, and completely at home. Our dog was treated like a member of her family and had the time of his life playing with Ralphie and the other dogs. The adorable photos and videos gave us so much peace of mind while we were away...and honestly, I think he was a little sad to come home, which is probably the highest compliment a dog can give. We will absolutely book again. Weekend at Ralphie’s is officially dog-approved!”

“Lauren and her family took such good care of our dog Sawyer! This was our first time being away from our puppy so we were worried she was going to be scared, but she had so much fun playing with their dog Zoe while we were away. Lauren sent us pictures everyday to let us know how she was doing. By the time we got back, Sawyer was already attached to Lauren, Zoe, and the rest of the family.”
“Jeff and Ron took care of our standard, 4 1/2 year old Bernedoodle. It was our first time leaving her and we were cautious in who we chose to care for her. Jeff. And Ron lived up to their highly rated reviews! We set up a meet and greet and also decided to have our pup spend a day with them before leaving on our 4 day getaway. Jeff’s friendly demeanor with us and our pup put our minds at ease. We felt comfortable knowing our dog was in good hands!”
“Mocha had an awesome stay at Jiayi’s. She is well taken care of and had lots of fun hanging out with her other furry friends. Jiayi is very accommodating and she even replaced Mocha’s broken leash and took time to look for a similar one. Great sitter!”

About: I have had cats as pets since I was young, I have cat sat for multiple family friends, and am very used to taking care of cats that have special needs, weather it be daily medication, lots of attention and love, or to be mostly left alone if your cat is wary of people and introverted.
“Katie is awesome- she’s organized, responsive and kind. My cat can be quite scared of others and he feels comfortable around her, as evidenced by staying out from hiding when she’s there :) I feel better knowing my cat’s being cared for by Katie when I’m away.”
“Jiyai is amazing !! So thoughtful and lovely with my cats. I have always been hesitant to leave my furbabies with anyone but Jiyai is so kind and warm. My cats loved spending time with her and I would highly suggest utilizing Jiyai’s care for your furbabies. Jiyai was always on time, sent me pictures, and updated me twice a day while I was on my trip. Thank you Jiyai for the love and support you extended.”
“Hi, Zoey! I can’t seem to text you directly so I’m leaving you this message via a great review for you. Thanks again for taking such good care of Jasmine, for the pics and detailed notes, and for all the other things you did. Best wishes for a wonderful sophomore year!”
“Ella did amazing with the bunnies! was very attentive to them and communicated very well with me during my work trip. The pictures were so great as well, really making me feel like they were left in good hands. 10/10 as a pet sitter and would recommend.”
“Jason stayed at our home with our cat for a week - it was great to know our kitty was so cared for, and that our house was watched over as well. Jason kept in touch all week, and we absolutely loved the pictures he sent each day! We’ll definitely have Jason back next time we travel!”
About: I have a 20 pound black cat and I'm literally in love ( the vet calls him Lebron James ) . I have been a cat lover since the day I was born. I have also watched my female cat Stacey give birth to kittens and can take full care of cats of all ages. Cats are cute adorable and the best little creatures ever.
“I love that Amy took the time to get to know (and love) Tabasco while we were away from home. I can tell that Tabasco really enjoyed their visits, and got some decent play time in. Hoping to have Amy again in the future for our time away.”
“This is the 3rd time I have had Denis and Nikki watch our pets and if they are available, we would never consider anybody else. They take great care in what they do and it shows. They not only take excellent care of our animals but they make sure the house is ok also, taking out and back garbage, bringing in packages on the doorstep and mail, etc. They are excellent and our family would highly recommend. Andrew S.”
“Michelle did an amazing job!! I loved seeing the pictures of Maya while I was away. Michelle listened to was important to me while I was away, including making sure my cat had fresh food/water, but also bringing mail and packages in. I came home to a very happy cat! Thank you Michelle!”
“Donna looked after our cats for two weeks while we were gone. She did a great job taking care of them and staying in touch with us during the process. We will definitely use her again in the future.”
“Diana was awesome dropping in on our 2 cats. Responded quickly when we needed last minute help before going on vacation and was very patient working through some initial trouble getting in the over the phone.”
About: Hello there, My name is Alisa and I am currently based in the Chicago area, where I’ve been delighted to discover just how many people here deeply care about their animals. I love cats and have been surrounded by them since my earliest years. (I’m not kidding, my first-ever baby picture has a cat in it.) I’ve had experience caring for very young and active cats, and also for very old cats in the final stages of their lives. I connect very well with animals and am proud to say that every cat I’ve ever met has either liked me or, at the very least, tolerated me admirably well. I can give your cats cuddles, or I can give them space. I will brush them, play with them, and engage them whenever it feels like they’re bored or being withdrawn from missing you. I will send you so many pictures and updates of your cat babies, there’s a chance you will ask me to dial down, but I won’t make promises I cannot keep. If you need someone to take care of your pets while you’re away, don’t hesitate to get in touch — I would love to meet you and your precious kitties!
“Thank you again Isabela for taking care of Ali. I know she was well taken care of on your visits. I always look forward to the pictures and knowing everything thing is fine. I have total peace of mind knowing Ali is in good care.”

About: I have had cats, dogs, and fish for the past 15 years. I have boarded, walked, and sat many animals including the ones listed above. I have also done feedings and administering medications. I always like to get detailed notes and a walk through of the care you need so the pets are well taken care of throughout my time with them. I am currently open to any times and days. I am in school and am doing it completely online and asynchronous. I can work with you separately to figure out the best schedule. I am always wanting a walk through and detailed sheet of paper describing schedules and everything I need to know. I will also send frequent updates including pictures. I have administered medications before and ask to be shown how to administer so they don’t miss a day.
“Ella is absolutely amazing! She took the best care of Walter and he felt right at home. I’m very appreciative of all that she’s done! I wholeheartedly recommend having her watch your fur babies.”
“Amy and Lamar were awesome taking great care of my energetic GSP. Lots of photos and communication kept me in the loop all day. I came home with a tired pup which is the best indicator of a fun day!!!”
“Naomi & Johann took wonderful care of Javy. I made a last minute, same day request and they came thru. I knew immediately upon dropping Javy off that he would be in good hands. They introduced Javy to their dog, Milo, expertly and they were both affectionate with Javy right away. She sent photos and a video and I could tell Javy was very comfortable & happy. I will definitely be a repeat customer!”
“This house is the definition of love. My dog loves to be around this family and is such a humble experience to know that Uma is so happy to go and spend time with them. Space is super clean, yard is so big and they simply love animals. I came across angels and I’m very very grateful for them!”
“Kristina was great. Very kind and communicative—and generous with my dog who is on the nervous side. Sent lots of photos, which were fun to receive. Definitely will bring my dog again!”
“Cynthia did a great job caring for our dog. She was flexible and accommodating and went above and beyond. We were traveling thru town for 3 days and needed a dog sitter. We highly recommend her.”
“Katie took very good care of my two dogs while they were at her home. She gave them lots of attention and sent me pictures. They also enjoyed the love and attention from her children. They were relaxed and happy when I picked them up.”
“Claire is a standout. She communicates timely and effectively, is polite and professional, organized and most importantly she is incredible with dogs. Claire documented walks including duration, route and distance, and meals including time, amount of food eaten by each dog. Her feedback on my dogs' personality traits was spot on as well, demonstrating her care and attention. I would wholeheartedly recommend Claire to anyone in need of a trustworthy sitter. THANK YOU, CLAIRE!”
“Myriam is kind, prompt, and super attentive/confident/responsible with dogs! I needed someone last minute and Myriam was super helpful and kept Zo for me all afternoon, as well as kept me updated with pictures! Absolutely great!”

“If you need a reliable, flexible, and kind pet sitter, look no further than Rebeca. She took my pups on short notice and didn't blink an eye when I realized I had accidentally booked a 2-hour visit instead of 14 hours. She was happy to keep them the whole day, communicated proactively with fun updates and photos, and gave them access to a massive fenced-in yard that they absolutely loved. She made a stressful booking mistake completely stress-free. Thank you, Rebeca!”

About: I grew up on a farm and we had dogs, cats, horses, chickens, pigs, goats and cows. I’ve been around animals all my life and my ultimate goal is to get back to farm life and have an animal sanctuary I work a full time job, and would be available on weekends for drop in visits and dog walks. I know weekends are when people want to go to dinner or a concert and they don’t want to rush home to take their dog out for a walk. I have years of experience with both cats and dogs. I’m 60 years old and a trusted member of the Northbrook community for the last 26 years.
“We recently had the pleasure of working with Amy and Lamar to care for our dog, Ralph, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. They consistently went above and beyond—giving him extra-long walks and even taking care of his feeding schedule twice a day, which gave us so much peace of mind. What truly stood out was Lamar’s work on training during his time with Ralph. His calm, confident approach made an immediate impact, and we are amazed at how responsive Ralph is to his guidance. It’s clear that both Amy and Lamar have a genuine love for animals and a deep understanding of how to connect with them. We are incredibly grateful for their reliability, professionalism, and the affection they showed Ralph. We highly recommend Amy and Lamar to anyone looking for dedicated and trustworthy dog walkers, and we absolutely plan to use their services again in the future!”
“Aleksandra has dog walked/ dropped in on my dog Goose several times over the past few years. She is always on time and great with communication. Recommend for anyone looking for a dependable dog walker!”
“Jiayi is very attentive and takes very good care of Nigel on his daily walk. She is also very communicative and accommodating to any request we have regarding Nigel’s care.”
“Donna and her partner, Steven, are a great team. They took good care with our little guy, who is 14 and a little deaf and losing his eyesight. They are very kind and trustworthy and will use them again.”
“Caroline is so dependable and truly great with dogs. Sue absolutely loves our dog and he looks so forward to playing with her. I have complete trust in her knowing Cody is in great hands.”
About: Ever since I was little, I knew I wanted dogs to be a big part of my life. I begged my parents for one, but instead they had me start dog sitting to prove I was responsible enough. After many dog sleepovers, we finally welcomed Kirby into our family for my 12th birthday! Caring for Kirby taught me that every dog has their own personality and routine, and I enjoy getting to know what makes each one feel comfortable and loved. When I'm caring for your pet, I'll treat them like they're my own. I'll make sure they get the exercise, attention, and care they need, and I'll keep you updated so you can have peace of mind while you're away. I'm working part time 2-3 nights per week, and have some weekend obligations. Other than that, pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine, and I am committed to provide reliable care! I'll be paying close attention of surroundings to keep your dog safe! To assure peace of mind, I'll make it an intention to send updates after each adventure! And of course I will respect any route preferences :) When caring for pets in your home, I always follow your pet's normal routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure. I'll make sure they always have fresh water, exercise, and plenty of attention--my goal is to follow all care instructions as closely as possible. I also treat every client's home with the same respect I would my own. My goal is to provide a safe, stress-free experience for both you and your pet.
“Jenny was amazing with Shortcake. She took my chunk out on walks for me twice a day while I was away on a business trip. I love the photo updates and could tell that shortcake was really enjoying her time. I came hope to a very happy and well adjusted dog. I highly recommend Jenny!”
“Stephen is great with our silly, high energy dog Roxy (doberman). We always feel comfortable she is in good hands under their care and she is always happy (based on the fun photo update we get). I would highly recommend their services”

About: I grew up with dogs, cats, and lizards. I have worked at an animal sanctuary, I have worked with disabled animals, and will give your pet the attention and love they deserve.

“Anna is amazing! She has been walking our pup every day for the past few months. Anna not only walks Charlie but actually spends time playing with him and training him - she even taught him the paw command! Anna sends very detailed reports and lots of cute pictures after every walk. Being first time puppy owners we feel so lucky to have Anna looking after our pup!”
“Diana was prompt, responsive and reliable! She was great to work with and I felt so much relief leaving my pets in good hands while I was away. Thank you Diana! Will absolutely rebook soon”
About: I’ve fostered over 50 animals and just enjoy being with animals and want to show them the world. I’ve worked with dogs from 1 month to 9 years. I will be attending the university of Tennessee this fall and I’d love either morning to afternoon work. I always communicate before bookings and will try to be as flexible as possible! I’m very patient and I’ve fostered over 50 animals so I’ve worked with all personalities and ages. I try to care for dogs like they are my own.
