“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.”

“Doug & Deb were absolutely wonderful with my dog, Mae! They gave her lots of attention, cuddles, and walks. It was a relief to know that she was getting such great care (and having a fantastic time) while we were away.”

“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.”

“Maria was amazing with my dog!! I was so nervous leaving my dog with someone other than family. Lucy is a rescue so she has been through it. Maria and her daughter took such good care of my pup and sent pictures daily.”

“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!”


“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!”

“Kristina is great and Charli loves to stay with her. She always sends pics and videos to keep me posted. She takes her for walks all the time and on fun adventures to the beach. Kristina is great with communication and takes care of your pet.”

He also gave us constant updates - sharing photos and messages to make sure we know our dog is comfy and in great hands. We are so grateful that we didn’t have to worry about anything while we were away!”

“Nicky was great with our Frenchie. Lots of communication and photos. Would recommend if you need someone that can care for a fussy dog that needs lots of attention!”

“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.”

“Noor and her family did a wonderful job with our cat Tabby while we were on vacation! She sent us frequent updates about how Tabby was doing and made a great effort to become friends with her. Definitely would book with them again, and would recommend!”

“Leah was prompt with her check in and check out times and continually sent us pictures from each visit and an update as to what she did. On her initial visit to meet our 2 cats, one of our cats was a little moody that day and wasn't interested in meeting Leah. But by the second day Leah told us that that particular cat was her new "bestie". The cats were well cared for and everything was done that was noted to be done.”


“Katherine was an excellent choice for a drop in visit for our two cats! She is very attentive and interested in getting to know their specific personalities and needs. One of our cats needs insulin shots and I felt reassured with her skill set. The Rover Card was thorough and the many photos were appreciated. I will be using her in the future and I would highly recommend!”


“Amy did a great job checking on our two cats while we were out of town. She was very attentive to the cats needs and we could tell they got lots of affection and play time during Amy’s visits. We highly recommend and plan to book with Amy in the future.”


About: I’ve helped care for cats for over 10 years, and currently have a senior baby of my own. I have experience cat-sitting kittens, seniors, as well as cats with special needs like diabetes, which have required me to administer insulin.

“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.”

About: I’ve had a passion for animals since I was a little girl. I get along with all my neighbors’ dogs and my neighbors rely on me to take care of them some times. My old roommate has a golden retriever and I love taking care of him, giving him a bath and walking him. I have two cats at home and I even taught them some tricks! I’m currently working part time only on Mondays and Thursdays. So I have lots of free time outside of work taking care of your dogs and playing with them! I also have a car so I can drive to wherever you are and take your dogs for a walk where they are the most comfortable with. I live right next to the bike trail and woods, which is a paradise for dogs! If you have an athletic or active dog, I’ll take your dog running the trails, swimming in the pond, and have all the fun in the outside world! If your dog is less active, I’ll give your dog all the comfort and love at home, making sure they are well fed and entertained.
“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.”

“Jenny is the best. She sends adorable photos and tells me everything (good and bad) I need to know about my cat. She really takes a lot of the pressure of leaving off my shoulders and I cannot thank her enough!”


“Nicholas was an amazing cat sitter from start to finish. We were out of the country for a week and he stopped by right on time, provided multiple photos and a detailed update of everything completed in each visit. He went above and beyond in watching after our 2 elderly cats and was flexible with us incase our flight was delayed. We feel very comfortable booking him for our next trip. If we didn’t work from home, I would definitely be booking him to take care of our dog. Would recommend him!!!”


“Rosy was amazing with our pride of cats and she sent plenty of awesome pics and updates (and even brought in our packages)! She eased our minds during our first trip after saying bye to one of our beloved cats which went miles in ensuring we enjoyed our time.”


About: We have a cozy home with lots of large windows and sunshine for our cats to enjoy the scenery and day. Its a quite house on a culdesac . We would enjoy having your cat stay with us!

“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!”


“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!”

“Diana was responsive and accommodated my schedule last minute. Loki seemed well cared for and happy when I picked him up. I know he had a good time, because he was calm and tired when he got home. I will definitely go back and recommend Diana for doggy day 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.
“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. :)”

“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!”

“Debbie is the absolute sweetest person! She watched our dog for the day while we hosted an engagement party for our son. We received pictures and videos throughout the day I Highly recommend Debbie. We will be using her again for sure Thank you so much”

“Sarah accommodated my daycare request at short notice and I couldn’t be happier to have chosen her! Both my little pups have special needs and she put me at ease with her communication and multiple photo updates. She was very thorough with understanding their care and I will absolutely use her services again next time we’re in town. Highly recommend if you are looking for a professional pet lover! Thank you, Sarah!”

“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!”
“Janessa was absolutely amazing! Her communication to understand my dog prior made me feel so comfortable, and the attentiveness/updates while Berkeley was at her home made me feel so reassured and trusting. Janessa’s home is the perfect place for your doggo to spend time at - I absolutely recommend you choose Janessa for your fur-paninis’ needs!!”

“I almost wanted to gatekeep Nicky because he’s that good! He takes amazing care of my dog, Juno, and I never have to worry when he's with him. He’s reliable, caring, communicative, and it’s obvious he genuinely loves animals. Juno is always happy, relaxed, and excited to see him, which says everything. If you’re looking for someone you can completely trust with your pet, I can’t recommend Nicky enough”

“Only our second time using Rover. Will likely continue, we've used two different people due to availability and both times have been good experience. Cheri sent us some pictures during Toby's stay which was nice to see.”

About: We're a family of five who adore pets of all kinds! We had a wonderful dog named Peace for about six years and plenty of experience petsitting for friends and relatives. Due to travel commitments, we currently have no pets-- which gives us plenty of time to care for yours. I am a stay at home mom and my husband works on a hybrid schedule, which gives us plenty of flexibility and allows us to be home for the majority of the day. Our daughter is currently enrolled in online high school, so she has plenty of time to walk, care for, and play with your pets! We have a large fenced yard and are able to crate your pets if provided. We'll take dogs for walks a minimum of twice a day and let them roam in the yard/provide at least a couple more potty breaks.
“Ella is great! I was in a bind and needed a walker the day after I signed up for Rover. Ella responded immediately and was able to come over the next day. She was on time and my pup Carlos loved her! I would definitely recommend her to everyone!”


“Ahmed took amazing care of my dog and made the entire experience stress-free. He was responsive, dependable and kept me updated with photos and messages. My dog was happy, comfortable, and clearly well cared for. I felt completely at ease knowing my pet was in good hands. Highly recommend and would definitely book again!”
“Mary was so great with Milo, especially for his first walk with Rover ? can tell she really has a passion for dogs and making sure they feel comfortable. Would recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and friendly walker/sitter!”

“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.”

“Mario is a gem! Olive and I had such a great experience with Mario — he’s friendly, professional, and truly knows his stuff when it comes to dogs. From the very beginning, he connected with Olive and made her feel at ease. She was always excited to see him, and I felt completely confident leaving her in his care. What really stood out was how Mario handled an unexpected stomach issue Olive had one day. When he arrived for her walk, he noticed she’d had an accident inside and immediately recognized that something was off. Not only did he take care of the cleanup without hesitation, but he also kept me updated with calm, thoughtful messages and even brought rice on a follow-up visit to help settle her stomach. That kind of attentiveness instills so much confidence and really reinforces just how much he cares about the dogs he works with. Mario goes well beyond the basics — he’s compassionate, attentive, and clearly invested in the dogs he looks after. Olive and I are both so lucky to have found him. Can’t recommend him highly enough!”

“Katherine is attentive to Nigel’s needs and always provides updates during their daily walk. Her help is very appreciated and I know Nigel always enjoys their daily walks too!”


“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.”

“I felt really at ease and happy with Nicholas. This was the first time me using Rover and I was very pleased with the outcome and with Nicholas. Thank you!”

“Karen was great. She took the time to meet Sadie and understand her needs. The two walks were just enough to satisfy Sadie and give me peace of mind that she was being well cared for. Thank you Karen!”

“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.”

“Tamara's great! While she was on vacation, Mosie had another dog walker whom he also liked but he and I are both excited to have Tamara back! She adjusts her schedule to meet Mosie's needs and truly cares about him; the dogs she walks are not just job and the dogs can tell that she cares.”
About: I love dogs. I am the go to person to take care of my friends and family's dogs when they are out of town. Plus my own dog is super friendly and always game for meeting another dog I work from home full time with a flexible schedule. I am able to do my work and still have time to take care of my own dog and family at home I have 2 year old lab mix to keep your furry friend(s) company. I have a 5 bedroom house, including a full finished basement, and a gated yard so there's plenty of room for the dogs to hang out
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life — from growing up with them to raising my own now. I currently care for a black Lab with a strong personality, so I understand leash control, structure, and clear boundaries. I’m calm, consistent, and confident with all breeds, including high-energy or reactive dogs. I’ve helped friends, family, and neighbors with walks, feeding, cleanup, and calming routines. Whether your dog needs structured exercise or just a reliable visitor, I’m ready to show up. I work part-time with a consistent, flexible routine that allows me to care for your dogs during the day. I’m available for walks and drop-ins: • Mondays after 11:00 AM • Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays after 8:00 AM If your dog needs structured exercise, calm energy, or just a mid-morning break, I’ve got you covered. While I do not offer in-home boarding, I provide dependable drop-ins and walks tailored to your dog’s needs. I live with my own dog, Sam, who is reactive to other animals, so I cannot bring pets into my home — but this also means I understand how to work calmly and respectfully with dogs that may need space or structure. I’m confident handling leash reactivity, high-energy dogs, and special instructions.
“I'll definitely book Jackie again. It's hard to leave your pup in the hands of someone you just met, but Jackie made us feel that Cooper was in good hands. We appreciated her consideration and care with him.”

“Five stars and two paws up! Isa has an eye for detail, professional demeanor, and is easy to communicate with. She’s super responsible with my pup and I highly recommend her :-)”


About: I’ve had dogs in my household since I was 4 years old and all of my family has dogs. I currently own a Great Dane so I’m comfortable walking or watching any size dog. I love all types of dogs big or small! I’ve spent time letting out dogs for friends and family and have also volunteered at a pet shelter giving dogs walks. I am not working right now so my schedule is very flexible. I currently take care of one family of dogs for an hour in the afternoons otherwise I’m available the rest of the day to let dogs out or take them for walks. I would be able to come to the client’s home to let the dogs out or take them for a walk if that is what is asked.

About: I am a dog lover who would love to watch over your pet while you’re gone. I have a house in Norwood Park where dogs have free range to roam about and a large fenced in backyard to explore. I am self employed and spend a good amount of time at home. I love dogs & want to use our space to welcome fun visitors!
