“Mera does a wonderful job with our dog, she takes great care of him and we are always happy to leave him with her. She even went the extra mile this time since he’s getting older and is not doing well and it was very much appreciated by us.”
“We had never used an outside resource to care for our dog and we were completely surprised. Kimberly was thoughtful and kind and our dog was in amazing hands. She listened and walked us through the process and kept us updated throughout the whole weekend and even sent us pictures. We loved it and we will definitely use Kimberly again - she is awesome!!! Thank you for making our first time so easy.”
“Jackie was awesome!! She and her family showed so much love and care to our dog, Frank. He had a great time with a few other furry friends! It was so nice getting the photos from Jackie, several times a day. Jackie is so accommodating and caring! I wish we had discovered her sooner!! She is the best!!”
“Miriam & Terrell were the absolute best! I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. First time leaving my pup for more than just a few days & they gave me daily updates & lots of pics! 1000/10 thank you so much!”
“Lizzie was a perfect caretaker for our 7 year old golden doodle! She sent pictures, videos and communicated the perfect amount during our dog’s stay. We will booking with her again!”
“Morgan was great with our dog! Dewey. He stayed with her for 12 days during our recent vacation. Dewey can be anxious in new settings but she was able to provide one-on-one attention that helps him adjust. She also provided appropriate stimulation such as walks, outside time and toys. This was our first experience with Rover. We’ve used boarding through our vet in the past. The experience with Rover and especially with Morgan, was so much better for us, and more importantly for Dewey!”
“We boarded our 2 little guys with Rosarin for several nights and could tell they were very well cared for. We got updates via the app on their days felt relieved they were in excellent care. Would highly recommend!”
“Eric is a great pet sitter. As soon as I met him and saw his house and yard, I just felt so calm. I knew he would take good care of my dog. She did have a bad first night but Eric took care of it with aplomb and empathy. I highly recommend Eric.”
“Jill is always great with our Khaleesi. It is obvious, Khaleesi really likes her. She sends pics,walks her and takes wonderful care of her especially during thunderstorms,which we both really appreciate! Thank you, Jill! You're truly the best! 🤗🫶🏾”
“Peggy was excellent. She was very thorough prior to babysitting Sozo and was great about communication before and during his visit. She made her home a nice place for him to stay and i would recommend her! Sozo loved her four season room to look out the window!”
“My dogs love staying at Miss Danielle's! She gives them lots of snuggles and playtime in the backyard. They always come home exhausted for about the next 24 hours after I bring them home! I'm glad we have someone we trust with our fur babys when we're out of town.”
“This was the first time we've left our dogs with someone and we're definitely glad it was with Shannon. They were very well taken care and happy when we picked them up. Shannon stayed in daily contact and sent photos and videos of our fur babies enjoying their time with her. We highly recommend Shannon and plan on rebooking when we take our next vacation.”
“Leslie was amazing!!! It was obvious right away that my dogs loved her. She was so good with Molly and Bear, whether it was playtime or snuggle time. And she was absolutely wonderful about keeping us updated regularly! It’s hard to leave my pups, but her updates and pictures made it a lot easier. Leslie really cares for your pups. She is truly wonderful.”
“Taylor and Samuel were amazing and took very good care of our dog. They made sure to send pictures and give updates and clearly enjoyed having him around. I would definitely recommend and book with them again!”
“Penelope had a wonderful stay for the week. She was very well cared for, happy, and comfortable the entire time. Communication was great throughout the stay, and it was clear Penelope was treated like part of the family. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter”
“We were so impressed with Amy’s care of our dog. She and her two daughters treated him like family for the week he was with them. I think he still misses all the attention from them. We were able to travel stress free, knowing he was in good hands. I highly recommend Amy for anyone looking for pet care. She is one of the best we’ve used on Rover! You won’t worry about leaving your pet behind when they are in her care. 10 stars +++”
“Pallvi and her family are fantastic! This is our second time leaving our two dogs with them and the experience continues to be great. If you or someone you know is looking for a family to look after your furry friends, my wife and I cannot recommend Pallvi and her family enough.”

“Our trips are always great knowing we have Amy taking care of our cats! Five stars isn’t enough to describe her care, dependability and expertise. We are so grateful we found her !! Thank you Amy!!”
“Erika is a sweetheart! She did a wonderful job caring for my cat while I was out of town. She left my place cleaner than she found it and kept in communication to calm an anxious cat-mom's mind. Would recommend and plan on asking her again when the time comes.”
“Anja and Josh were amazing! They took great care of my cats, including my young kitten. They sent very thorough updates with cute pictures and I was able to relax and enjoy my trip without worrying about my fur babies.”
About: In kennel settings I’ve worked it, I have also taken care of cats. I have my own as well. Don’t tell anyone but she’s probably the most spoiled pet in the house. I’m familiar with their behaviors and have an understanding of the care needed for them. They are our family and I’m here to take care of your fur baby in a way that shows that.
“Evelyn stepped up to provide care for my two cats last minute. She was great with them both. I appreciate her constant communication and check-ins with pictures. Will definitely try to book her next time I’m needing someone to look after my animals!”
“Cristal went above and beyond to care for our 6 cats and help us feel at ease while we were away on a trip. She was immediately in contact with any issues that arose and took care of everything needed and then some. If we could give more than 5 stars we would.”
“Grace did a great job taking care of our cat while we were away for a week’s vacation. She stayed overnight, send us picture updates and made us feel at ease that our fur baby was in good hands. We came home to a happy pet and a sparkling clean home. Thanks Grace!”
About: Tiger is my personal cat. I have shopped for her food, taken her to the vet, and fulfilled all her needs since I got her. I have her maintenance schedule to fill all her needs, cause no pets are low maintenance, it just means they aren't getting the care they need. Every four months her litter box gets deep clean, the box itself and scoop get washed. The litter box gets scooped twice a week. She also gets brushed twice a week, because not only does she enjoy it, but it reduces hairballs and promotes fur health (and less fur in the house!). I play with her a minimum of once a day, twice is the average though. She gets fed three times a day from wet food, and has a water fountain that gets a monthly deep clean. I do have experience giving her medication in her food along with her probiotic. Occasionally she goes for a leashed walk in the yard for extra stimulation. I have only cared for my own cat, but I am willing to go up and beyond for any cat.
“Keriann was AMAZING! She communicated throughout the entire process, took fantastic care of my Cats, and I felt at ease while I was aay from home. I will absolutely be using her again, and have referred her to others already!!”
About: I have loved cats for as long as I can remember. I've had cats since I was a young child, and they have always been cherished members of my family. Throughout my life, I've cared for cats of all ages and personalities, from playful kittens to senior cats requiring extra attention and care. I often joke that my cats were my first children because I loved and cared for them with the same dedication, affection, and commitment that I would give any family member. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have also fostered animals for my local animal shelter. Fostering has given me experience helping animals adjust to new environments, build trust, and receive the patience and care they need to thrive. It has reinforced my belief that every animal deserves to feel safe, loved, and valued. When caring for cats, my goal is to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I understand that cats thrive on consistency and that each one has a unique personality and comfort level. Whether your cat enjoys cuddles and attention or prefers a quieter, more independent approach, I will respect their needs while ensuring they receive excellent care, companionship, and plenty of love. My goal is for your cat to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away, and for you to have complete peace of mind knowing they are in compassionate and experienced hands.
About: I’ve cared for pets throughout my life and understand the importance of providing reliable, attentive care. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, following their set routines, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I treat every pet like my own, paying close attention to their individual needs, routines, and personalities to ensure they receive plenty of care and affection while all their needs are met! I’m currently working part-time so I am able to provide pet care everyday in the mornings/early afternoons. Evenings vary by my work schedule. I am always willing to try and make my schedule work for any of my clients needs! Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. I understand the trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care, and I’m committed to providing a safe and loving environment. I’ll carefully follow your pet’s routine, respect any special instructions, and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident they’re happy and well cared for while you’re away.

About: I know how important my dog's well-being and daily routine is to me, and I would love to help keep your dog in their routine! I have experience caring for and training dogs of all types, and will cater to senior dogs, medical needs, or special needs such as sensitive, selective, or reactive dogs. In my spare time I volunteer with my therapy dog Reese, and have experience fostering and training dogs using positive reinforcement. I know how hard it is to be away from your pet but I can assure a safe and successful walk, sit, or stay! I am a teacher, and currently available full time for animal care! Available on weekdays, for stop-ins during the work day, or over holiday weekends. In your home, I can offer lots of your dog's favorite exercise for every season. Depending on their activity level, we can take walks, runs, or just breaks/sniffs. I always clean up after dogs and demonstrate responsible dog ownership in your neighborhood! For stays at my house: the yard is huge, and backs to forest preserve property and pond, but the yard is unfenced so I am diligent about leashes.

About: I have always loved every different kind of animal out there, but spent my childhood with mostly just cats. 15 years ago, I adopted my first puppy, a German Short-haired Pointer, at the age of 8 weeks. My ex-husband and I decided to take the "treatless training" approach which was a huge success! Crate training, leash training, obedience training were all a collaborative effort and turned out extremely well. 10 years later, we adopted a sweet rescue named Gizmo who was already 7 years old, but became part of the family immediately. They have both passed on now to doggy heaven, but I am always the first to offer to care for other family member's pets anytime I can :) I'm currently working part-time from my home in Blackberry Creek and always have time for some fur-ball company. My 2 girls, 7 and 10 years old, are with me part time and are also very helpful, gentle and patient with our pets and hopefully yours! I have a fenced back yard with plenty of room for your fur-baby to play and exercise! If it better suits you, I can always come to your home as well for potty and play time :) UPDATE 6/8/26 - Since starting my Rover journey in 2022, I’ve had the pleasure of meeting so many amazing pets and their wonderful families. Along the way, our household has grown and changed in ways I never expected. In 2023, one of my regular Rover pups (actually a senior pup) became a permanent part of our family. Tigger’s owner had rescued him from a Chicago Animal Shelter just months before I began caring for him. As a 100 lb. Staffordshire Terrier, Great Dane, Bully, etc. mix, Tigger was a big boy with an even bigger heart. His owner dedicated to helping him become the best version of himself, especially since he wasn’t always comfortable around other dogs. With patience, training, and love, he blossomed into the sweetest, gentlest giant you could imagine. When his owner unexpectedly passed away, her husband reached out to ask if I would consider adopting Tigger. My answer was immediate: absolutely. I couldn’t bear the thought of him returning to a shelter. Bringing Tiggy into our family was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. My girls and I were lucky enough to love, spoil, and cherish him for three wonderful years before he crossed the Rainbow Bridge. We miss him every day, but are so grateful for the time we had together. Since then, we’ve also welcomed two adorable brother cats into our home. They keep us smiling and full our days with plenty of fun and affection. While our family has grown, we’re excited to have some doggy energy back in the house through Rover! When your pup stays with us, they’ll be welcomed with open arms and treated like a part of the family. We understand how much your pets mean to you because we’ve experienced firsthand just how special that bond can be. Our promise is simple: we’ll care for your furry family member with the same love, attention, and respect that we give our own. I work from home full time, so am able to provide your pup with all of the attention they deserve. They are free to run around in the fenced-in backyard and play at their fullest extent! Every pet owner has a different perspective on how to care for their pets. Some require a special routine for dinnertime or bedtime, while others require basic care with lots of love. I will follow whatever instructions are given to me by the owner…and I promise not to judge 😊
About: As a lifelong animal lover and experienced pet owner, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. I have a male Chihuahua-Terrier mix who stays with me part-time and gets along well with other dogs. I am the go-to pet sitter for friends and family, because my goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, indoor or outdoor play sessions, or relaxing with lots of cuddles, I’ll tailor their care to their unique personality and routine. I also have experience taking care of senior dogs and am comfortable administering medication, preparing special diets, and providing extra care and attention. I love having dogs around and would be delighted to welcome your pet into my home. For everyone’s comfort and safety, I ask that dogs be friendly around children, adults, and other dogs. Meet and greets—virtual or in person—are required before booking so we can make sure it’s a great fit for everyone. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family member! I work a flexible hybrid schedule, with three days per week at home and my office is close enough to come home midday on office days for walks and all your pet’s needs. I live in a spacious townhome and do not have a fenced yard, but if your dog enjoys leashed walks and outdoor playtime, I have easy access to open outdoor spaces, parks, and nature trails. In my home, dogs are a part of the family and welcome to make themselves comfortable just as they would in your home. They are welcome to relax on the couch, snooze on the bed, or use their own bed or crate if that’s most comfortable. I want your dog (and you) to feel relaxed and safe until your return.
About: I have cared for my pets since young child and have owned my own 4acre farmette for last 27yrs. I have horses, chickens, fish, and an amazing Mail-Dutchie dog. I have a work from home career allowing me flexibility to be home and have also worked for a leading pet kennel/training/boarding/grooming facility that allowed me hands on handling for many different breed, size, difficulty, and aged pets. Trustworthy and reliable and enjoy all the wonderful and beautiful personalities our pets have and embrace them all! Dogs allowed on bed for sleeping time to cuddle but not on furniture. Prefer dogs that can feel comfortable in a roomy kennel should need arise to leave my home for a couple hours as to keep all fur babies safe in their own space while unsupervised. Well mannered pups preferred, Photos and videos provided during days activities. Attentive and loving, I’ll treat your pet like my own! I have a work from home career that allows me the flexibility to be with your fur baby for all their needs and attention during their stay. I also provide crates to be sure all boarders are kept safe if need arises to leave home to ensure safety of all furry friends. I have a well trained and behaved dog that loves the company of our boarding friends. I make sure to have 5x day let out and a tie line that allows them to privacy but security during pottie breaks.
“Jackie was phenomenal. I reached out pretty last minute with a request that wasn’t exactly simple—she had to pick Ghost up from his training facility (not from me) and coordinate all of that seamlessly. On top of that, she even helped me sort out a small payment detail on Rover to make sure everything reflected correctly, which she absolutely didn’t have to do. She was super responsive, easy to work with, and just handled everything without friction. And the best part—Ghost lit up the second he saw her again after a few months, which tells you everything you need to know. Somehow she manages all of this while caring for multiple dogs at once and raising a young family, which honestly makes it even more impressive. Highly recommend giving Jackie a shot.”
About: Your dog isn’t just a guest - they’re part of the family. I work from home full time which means your pup will rarely be left alone. They’ll have constant supervision, companionship, and plenty of love throughout the day. I have a secured fenced yard for safe outdoor play and a dog-friendly pool that’s available for supervised swim time (if your pup enjoys water). I'm a dedicated dog lover who works from home, which means your furry friend will never be left alone. Whether it's a day of play or an overnight stay, your dog's happiness and safety are my top priorities. My home is a haven for dogs, featuring a spacious fenced yard where they can run and play freely. I also have a dog-friendly pool that's perfect for a supervised splash or a cool dip on a hot day

“Miriam was wonderful, absolutely wonderful with Katie, our terrier rescue. She let her sit on her lap while she worked. She had a raincoat, then a winter coat, on her when the weather got colder for her trips outdoors. She furnished these coats, I didn't bring any. A 3-page report card was given to me when I picked Katie up. It detailed her potty breaks and told cute little stories about their day together. I received numerous pics and videos that I thoroughly enjoyed. I met Terrell when I was leaving, and he seemed just as wonderful. I would give her 100 stars if I could.”
“My pup is normally very shy and takes him time warming up, but he loved Rosarin right away! He took treats (which never happens), enjoyed a nice long walk with her, and spent some time hanging out with her dog. Rosarin is great with animals, and she shared lots of helpful insights and cute pics/videos. Fantastic sitter, will use her again in a heartbeat!”
“So incredible! She is very attentive and responsive! We got video and photo updates throughout the day which made me know our dogs were well taken care of! Our dogs came home happy and tired! There is honestly nothing better than that. Cannot recommend Vanessa enough!!”

About: I have been raised with a pet by side. When I have born we had two brittany spaniels that have since passed on. In 8th grade, after they passed, we adopted another puppy brittany. A year later, we adopted another, to have our current pair of brittanys. So I have experience raising puppies as well. I play with them outdoors and indoors, brush them, clean up their poop, bath them, feed them, and train them. They also get taken on walks at the local forest preserve for stimulation. I have experience in caring for fish and snakes. Between dogs, I had my cat to keep me company. She is solely my cat, so she got the same attention as the dogs, plus I bought her toys, treats, litter, and food. Outside of my dogs I have pet sit goldens labs, goldendoodles, springer spaniels, and many other breeds. As in my headline, I don't think any animal is low maintenance. That just means the pet isn't getting the care it deserves. I had my cat at my dorm first semester, and I fed her breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I made sure to play with twice a day and we played birds on the tv for stimulation as well. I had a weekly schedule to brush her twice a week, and clean the litter box every Sunday and Wednesday. At home I would alternate playing with my dogs, training, and brushing them whenever possible. I can play indoors and outdoors. I can take the animal for walks. Clean up any potential messes, such as muddy dogs or if a cat has a hairball. I can accompany senior pets that need help eating. I can brush the animal. And feed them, and do basic training.
About: I've been caring for animals for over 12 years, starting with my own dog, Lola. Since both of my parents worked, I was often responsible for feeding her, taking her on walks, playing with her, and making sure she was well cared for. That experience taught me responsibility from a young age and helped me develop a genuine love for animals. Since then, I've cared for pets for friends, family, and neighbors, including dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I always strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for while their owners are away. I am currently home for the summer, which means my availability is very flexible and I have plenty of time to dedicate to your pets. Once summer ends, I will be continuing my pilot training and taking online courses through Lewis University. Even then, my schedule will remain flexible, allowing me to continue providing reliable and attentive care for your pets. I have a fenced yard and one dog of my own, Phoebe, who is incredibly friendly and loves being around other dogs. She can play all day long and does a great job helping other dogs feel comfortable in a new environment! If your pet will be staying in my home, I would be more than happy to arrange a meet and greet beforehand so they can get to know Phoebe and make sure everyone is a good fit. Your pet's safety and well being are always my top priorities, and I will follow any routines or instructions you provide to help them feel right at home!
About: After traveling thousands of miles and leaving my home country, I also had to leave my little pet in the care of the most important person in my life, my mom. My dog has always been my greatest emotional support, and being apart from him inspired me to stay connected to the love, energy, and purity that pets bring into our lives. I want to care for your pets as if they were my own, giving them all the affection, attention, and respect they deserve. I am currently dedicating myself full-time to pet care. This allows me to be 100% available to take care of your pets throughout the week. For now, I’m available 24/7 and fully committed to giving them the attention and care they need. I prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness while in your home. I ensure they’re in a familiar environment, maintaining their routine to reduce any stress. During walks, I always use secure leashes, stay alert to surroundings, and avoid potential hazards. I respect your home, following any specific guidelines you provide, and ensure your pet receives the love, attention, and care they deserve. My goal is to create a trustworthy and safe experience for both you and your furry friend!

About: I’ve had Dogs since I was little. I currently have 2 German Short Haired Pointers which is a very high energy breed dog. With that being said I’m comfortable and able to care for small to big dogs including high energy fur babies🐾 I’ve also been a Nanny for 4 years and care for toddlers so i’m ready for anything! I’m currently working part time as a nanny while attending ECC for Nursing. This allows me to have a flexible schedule to care for your pet(s)! Having owned dogs my whole life i’m comfortable with any care your pet may need. For example, giving dogs medication as my own dog is very stubborn about it.

“We had never used an outside resource to care for our dog and we were completely surprised. Kimberly was thoughtful and kind and our dog was in amazing hands. She listened and walked us through the process and kept us updated throughout the whole weekend and even sent us pictures. We loved it and we will definitely use Kimberly again - she is awesome!!! Thank you for making our first time so easy.”
“Jackie was awesome!! She and her family showed so much love and care to our dog, Frank. He had a great time with a few other furry friends! It was so nice getting the photos from Jackie, several times a day. Jackie is so accommodating and caring! I wish we had discovered her sooner!! She is the best!!”

“Morgan was great with our dog! Dewey. He stayed with her for 12 days during our recent vacation. Dewey can be anxious in new settings but she was able to provide one-on-one attention that helps him adjust. She also provided appropriate stimulation such as walks, outside time and toys. This was our first experience with Rover. We’ve used boarding through our vet in the past. The experience with Rover and especially with Morgan, was so much better for us, and more importantly for Dewey!”

She is truly wonderful.”

“We were so impressed with Amy’s care of our dog. She and her two daughters treated him like family for the week he was with them. I think he still misses all the attention from them. We were able to travel stress free, knowing he was in good hands. I highly recommend Amy for anyone looking for pet care. She is one of the best we’ve used on Rover! You won’t worry about leaving your pet behind when they are in her care. 10 stars +++”

“This is the second time that we put our trust with Ms. G! She is extremely attentive to details, patient with our furry babies' needs, communicative, and worked diligently to help us iron out some last minute details.
