“Amazing as always! Love seeing the photos and videos of Rambo playing with Sadie and the girls! They def tire him out and he has a ball every time he’s here! Thank you guys and see you guys soon! 🫶”
“Fantastic! She provided regular updates and was so helpful. The backyard was a break place for our dog to be. Would totally have her again and have already booked another time!”
“Once again, Jessica and her family are the perfect hosts for my Bear. This is the third time he has stayed with him and I can tell he is getting the very best care I could possibly ask for. She’s great about sending pictures and letting me know how things are going. I can’t say enough about Jessica!”
“Knight loves staying at June's. June is one of Knight's favorite people and as a bonus, Knight also gets to play with Cookie. My husband and I know that Knight was safe and well taken care of. Knight came home relaxed and happy! Booking another boarding request for August :)”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my fur babies received while I was away from Emily, her sons, and their pup Gertie! She's incredibly attentive and has a genuine love for animals. I received daily updates with photos, videos and notes of their daily adventures. I highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter! She is so kind and loving to our dogs.”
“Erika did a fantastic job caring for our dogs. Since this was our first vacation in several years, I was nervous about leaving them for an extended period. Lincoln, our senior, requires multiple medications and supplements, and Bella struggles with separation anxiety. Erika and Ryan were so reassuring during the meet-and-greet that I felt at ease immediately; seeing Bella flip over for belly rubs was the best sign! While we were away, we received photo and video updates twice a day. I loved her comments and how she picked up on our dogs personalities 😊 It was clear the dogs were happy, enjoyed their numerous walks, and was never left alone. I’m so grateful to have found Erika and Ryan —they truly understood our dogs' needs and gave them so much love!”
“Jackie is the best sitter I have had since using Rover. I am at total ease leaving Frito with her. She sends lots of pictures and he loves being there. He snuggles up with Jackie and her family members. I see that he feels safe which is quite an accomplishment given his anxious nature. Jackie is professional and has followed my detailed instructions for Frito everytime. I am so grateful I found her on Rover.com. I don't want to leave Frito with anyone else. I highly recommend Jackie - you will not be dissapointed.”
“We appreciated the updates letting us know our dog was having a fun time during his stay! Great communication. It always means a lot to know our dog is being well cared for. Already booked a second stay!”
“This was the best experience we had with using Rover. Stella and her family were amazing. We received photos every day, and we felt at ease knowing our dog was in good hands. Our dog has recently developed separation anxiety issues at the age of 10, which has been somewhat of a challenge to figure out since it happens when we’re gone, but Stella managed everything without issue, which was a huge comfort.”
“Thank you Elaina and Joseph for allowing me to book with a short notice and for being very flexible with dropoff and pickup times. Communication was excellent, constant updates and pictures, and great care. You'll definitely be my sitter of choice when I'm in the area. Thank you!!”
“Kaitlyn was amazing! She updated daily and made sure our babies were so well taken care of. She went above and beyond and I’m so grateful we chose to book with her. I will absolutely be booking her for any future needs for our pups.”
“I felt that Marble was in good hands and didn’t have to worry about him at all during our trip while he was with Bath. He seemed very happy in the pictures she sent on his walks! Thank you!”
“Carla is awesome! She was punctual, attentive, incredibly patient as i was running behind schedule. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Her professionalism and genuine love for animals truly set her apart. I will definitely book with her again.”
“Dorothy is amazing and we couldn’t recommend her enough. She took the time to get to know my pup and her needs, and sent many updates while we were away. We are happy to have found someone we trust so much!”
“Carolyn could not have been more professional, caring or accommodating. First time Rover user and I think I struck gold. If I had to choose between Carolyn's services and a traditional bordering service, I'd choose Carolyn every time. I hope to use her services in the future.”
“Mary did such a great job taking care of my dog! She kept me updated and was reliable. She would send me picture/video updates daily and I could tell my dog loved being with her. I felt really comfortable knowing he was in good hands. Definitely recommend!”
“She took such good care of my puppy, she was in constant communication and sent pictures almost daily. She super spoiled my baby and he had a blast the whole time! She even went above and beyond and took him to be groomed at her shop.”
“Cheryl and Jim were fantastic!! They took great care of our old girl, and treated her like family. She has some specific dietary requirements that they handled perfectly, sharing updates and pictures the whole time we were gone. Great communication, made us feel at ease, and we would not hesitate calling on them again. Highly recommended!!”

About: I’ve rescued cats for my whole life, currently I have a 4 year old tabby and 2 seniors - another tabby and a torti. Whether your kitty is a kitten or a senior, I’d love to give them attention, play time, and make sure their area is clean and stimulating.

“Krysta was AMAZING. We were able to completely relax on our vacation knowing our cat was in great hands she had no issues giving him his insulin and she was on time every single day. We will definitely be booking with her again!”
About: I've been around animals around pretty much my whole life. I've had 3 cats and 3 dogs growing up, and I started caring for them myself by the age of 10. I've also had hamsters, guinea pigs, and a hedgehog. Making sure that pets feel safe and loved is my #1 goal. I work full time, but I have no problem checking in on them before my shifts and after my shifts. It makes my days feel more fulfilled. I will take your dogs out for walks around the neighborhood, play with them outside in the yard, and always make sure that they are safe.
“Olivia was absolutely wonderful while we were away! She dropped in twice to let our dogs out, feed them, and make sure they were well cared for. She treated our home with so much respect and care, truly like it was her own. One of our favorite parts was all the beautiful pictures she took of the dogs while we were gone, it gave us so much peace of mind and made us smile seeing how happy and comfortable they were. You can really tell she genuinely cares about animals.”
“This was the first time I used Rover and was quite a nervous mother of my cat. I met with Elly and she was very professional and during the meet and greet she took notes the whole time. Was very impressed the attention to detail and the comfort she provided. I knew she was going to take care of my kitten as I would. I booked for that weekend and then a mandatory work event came up. But instead of cancelling she offered her fiancé as an option. I couldn't ask for more from an individual. Everything was how I left it and my kitten was well cared for. If you are ever in need of care Elly is your gal!!! Lisa”
“Alexandra did an excellent job of keeping me in the loop about my kiddos! She gave me daily photos and a little story about them daily as well so I knew their routine never changed. Having her take care of them as I went out of the country just lifted a weight off my shoulders knowing they’re in amazing hands!”

I treat every pet like family and would love the opportunity to care for yours!

I have patience for the senior dogs and have no issue with supporting their body weight and monitoring health.
“Taylor was absolutely fantastic! I am very nervous leaving my big German shepherd with anyone (I’m a bit of a helicopter parent) but Taylor got on with him very well! She dropped in on him during a very long day at work for me, gave him a bit of attention and a potty break, and all went smoothly! She communicated quickly when she was with him and even brought in my heavy chewy box of dog food that was delivered! I can’t say how happy I am to have someone that seems to like my big boy and will be able to take care of him when I need. Taylor is awesome!!”
“Nicole was hands down awesome! Our 2 boys loved seeing the photos she would send at each drop-in. One of our dogs was a little slow to warm up at first, but I liked that she didn’t let it bother her. Before we knew it, they were best buds! HIGH RECOMMEND HER!!”

About: I’ve raised/trained my rescue pup Bear on my own from when he was 13 weeks old and now he is 6. And I’ve been around animals my whole life. I recently did I private group animal training session with Cesar Millan at his Dog Psychology Center. I also have volunteered at Wild Bird Rehab many times. Both Bear and I love having more pet company in the home. I’ve always had a deep love for animals - I’m so excited to meet your pet(s) and get to know their fun personalities and quirks! 💙 I work full-time from home. Meaning I will always be home with and monitoring your pet(s) during my work day. I take my dog on walks every morning and evening at Longview or Queeny. I have a very clean, safe, and peaceful apartment with a nice big deck - that my dog loves to sunbathe or people-watch on throughout the day. Unfortunately, I do not have a fenced in yard but there is a small fenced in dog park in my neighborhood that is rarely used by other dogs. I take my high-energy dog on two long walks a day (morning and night) with potty breaks around the neighborhood in between, so lots of walks are already a part of our daily routine. My dog is very gentle and submissive. Your fur baby will feel right at home with us!

About: Hello! My name is Dallas! I am a huge animal lover, and would love to care for your furry family member! I have always loved all animals and have been in this field for over 15 years. A little about me: I was a volunteer at the SPCA for a few years, back when I lived in Nevada when I was in high school. Then I worked for a 24/7 doggy day care facility for about two years in Lake Tahoe after I moved there with my husband Adam. I worked there until I started my own pet sitting/walking company. when My husband Adam owned a wooden surfboard shop there, while I started my own pet sitting/dog walking company. In 2016, we decided to travel around with our dog Myles for a bit, and converted a school bus into an RV! We both own our own companies so we’ve always been able to work remote and did the conversion on our own. Eventually we ended up in Nashville and did two house flips while still running our craft companies. In 2020 my husband and I moved back here to Illinois where Adam is from, to help his elderly parents, and the family property. We just finished converting the barn into a homestead while we are here, and just celebrated our wedding in the property in September. Sadly our dog Myles passed away peacefully last October at the age of almost 17. While my husband and I greatly miss having a dog or pet around, we’re just not quite ready to get another dog yet and we figured Rover would be perfect. I’ve had a long list of pets throughout my life, from small Pomeranians to a large PitBull lab mix and multiple cats, I haven’t met an animal I didn’t love yet haha. Adam and I live on 8 acres with plenty of room to run and play. Our home is very clean, and also very dog friendly aka we love couch snuggles! Because Adam and I both operate our own businesses, we both have separate shops built in the house so we have the luxury of getting to stay home while still working, making our schedules very open and flexible! My husband and I both own our own businesses and have our shops on our property, so we both work from home every day with a completely open and flexible schedule! I care for every pet as if they were my own, while following and respecting the owners directions and or specific requests! We have a large pet friendly house that is very empty after our lab mix passed away in fall, and for the first time we are completely pet-less. We live on 8 acres in the country with tons of space to run and play and poop and have tons of fun. We are fenced in property but because the property is so big we keep our visitors on leashes. Our home is very clean but also very dog friendly (aka we love couch snuggles and don’t mind sharing our bed haha)

I’ll care for your dog in your home so that they’re as comfortable as possible, and treat both your animals and your home with the utmost respect and care.
About: I believe that every pet deserves individualized care and attention. What sets me apart is my genuine love and respect for animals, which I demonstrate by providing them with a nurturing, safe, and family-like environment. Your pet will never feel like they’re just another animal in a kennel – they’ll feel right at home, like part of the family. I can help puppies with basic commands and socialization, as well as offering gentle care to senior pets who require extra patience and special attention. A big part of my service is the daily walks. I understand how important it is for pets to get their daily exercise and mental stimulation. I make sure to provide enriching walks, whether it’s a calm stroll for a senior pet or a longer, more adventurous walk for an active dog. I adjust the walks according to the pet’s needs, and I always ensure they’re enjoyable, safe, and full of exploration. For added peace of mind, I share GPS-tracked walk updates, so you can follow along on your pet's experience. In addition, I keep owners informed throughout with photos and messages, so you never have to worry about your pet while you're away. My routine includes regular walks and playtime, ensuring your pet stays active and happy. I have full availability to care for pets, and I’m happy to accommodate flexible schedules to meet the needs of both the pets and their owners. Whether it's during the day, late evenings, or weekends, I’m here to provide care whenever it’s needed. Feel free to reach out at any time, and I’ll gladly arrange a time that works for you and your pet! When caring for pets in their own homes or taking them for walks, my primary focus is always on safety, trust, and creating a comfortable environment. In your home: I ensure the home is secure and free of hazards, paying close attention to areas where the pet may be most comfortable. I follow any special instructions from the pet owner regarding their pet’s habits, food, and preferences to maintain a consistent and safe environment. Whether I’m watching them at home or during a walk, I treat them with the same care as I would my own pets, ensuring they are always safe, comfortable, and happy. During walks: I prioritize safety by ensuring your dog is always under control, whether in urban or outdoor settings. I also ensure that pets are properly hydrated and not overexerted during their walks, adjusting the route and pace based on the pet’s age, size, and energy level. Trust is built by maintaining clear communication with the pet owner, regularly sending updates, photos, and videos to keep them informed about their pet's well-being and activities. This ensures the owners can trust that their pets are receiving the best care while they’re away.
About: I have been caring for all sorts of critters since I was very young. From pet sitting neighbors cats at age 7, to my first job at a pet store caring for all sorts of animals, and finally the last 13 years in veterinary medicine. I am well rounded in ANIMALS! Everyone knows me as the animal girl or vet tech. Caring for animals is my passion. I am familiar with many medications and able to administer them. I have cared for the young and the old. I grew up with Sophie my paralyzed Dachshund that I helped my parents care for including expressing her bladder. My Jack Russell Greenbean also became paralyzed in her last couple years of life and also needed around the clock care. I am well versed in senior care. I have cared for reptiles, small animals, birds, dogs, cats, horses, chickens, and would love to care for any farm/barnyard animals. We currently have Mac our pitbull/boxer mix, Oak our Australian cattle mix, Stitch our box tortoise and our chicken ladies. I can also offer nail trim and anal gland expression services if needed. I currently only work part time so I have a wide variety of hours to offer care. My mornings start with animal care and my nights end with animal care. I have a variety of dog/cat beds, big and small, all cozy of course. I have multiple different sizes and styles of crates if your dog is crate trained. We have a 3 acre lot that has a fenced pasture. We are in a court so I have the ability to also leash walk around the neighborhood if requested. My dogs are friendly and love visitors. I have a small animal cage that used to be for our ratties and can be used for a small animal/exotic pet.

I find genuine joy in being around animals and truly love the bond that comes with pet sitting.

“Rachel was awesome and so sweet. My Roxy loved her from the start and didn't even bark at her (which Roxy normally does to any new person that comes to our house) but she was calm and just wanted to sniff her. Rachel was prompt and overall awesome. We will definitely be rebooking for our recurring needs! I also appreciated Rachels last minute availability :)”

“Erika did a fantastic job caring for our dogs. Since this was our first vacation in several years, I was nervous about leaving them for an extended period. Lincoln, our senior, requires multiple medications and supplements, and Bella struggles with separation anxiety. Erika and Ryan were so reassuring during the meet-and-greet that I felt at ease immediately; seeing Bella flip over for belly rubs was the best sign! While we were away, we received photo and video updates twice a day. I loved her comments and how she picked up on our dogs personalities 😊 It was clear the dogs were happy, enjoyed their numerous walks, and was never left alone. I’m so grateful to have found Erika and Ryan —they truly understood our dogs' needs and gave them so much love!”
“This was the best experience we had with using Rover. Stella and her family were amazing. We received photos every day, and we felt at ease knowing our dog was in good hands. Our dog has recently developed separation anxiety issues at the age of 10, which has been somewhat of a challenge to figure out since it happens when we’re gone, but Stella managed everything without issue, which was a huge comfort.”

“Cheryl and Jim were fantastic!! They took great care of our old girl, and treated her like family. She has some specific dietary requirements that they handled perfectly, sharing updates and pictures the whole time we were gone. Great communication, made us feel at ease, and we would not hesitate calling on them again. Highly recommended!!”
“Megan took wonderful care of my 8‑month‑old golden retriever during his very first 5‑day boarding stay.

I’m very happy with her service and will definitely recommend her and book with her again.”

“Dickson was absolutely wonderful with Charlie! He sent frequent videos and photo updates, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. Charlie is 12 years old and diabetic, she stayed on her eating schedule and received her insulin shots on time — Dickson handled everything perfectly and with such care. I felt completely comfortable knowing she was safe, happy, and enjoying time playing in his fenced backyard. You can truly tell he loves animals and treats them like family. This was such a great experience, and I will absolutely have Charlie stay with him any time. Highly recommend Dickson to any friends or family looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!!”
