“Deanne kept all three of our dogs when we were out of town for four days. She kept us informed how they were doing and sent pictures so we could see them and they had all settled in well with her crew. So glad we found her in Rover!”
“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.”
“Alicia was the best! I knew from our meet and greet that she was going to be great with Tig and of course she was. I had no worries while we were out of town as she sent updates and photos of our Tig often. I can tell he is going to miss his new hangout and all their love & cuddles. I will absolutely book again if I need to in the future.”
“The dogs had a great time during their first stay here! Sumer and her family were able to take them some what short notice as our long time boarder was unexpectedly moving out of town and we really appreciated that. They took great care of the dogs and our dogs had fun playing with their pups. They have a good size backyard and we were happy to get pictures and updates that they were doing well. Thanks again!”
“I can’t speak highly enough about Shalyn, Joe, and their family. We went away for an extended period of time and were adamant about finding the perfect dog sitter for our girl Lucy, and that’s exactly what we found. From the moment they took her in, they made Lucy part of their family. Not to mention, she found a new best friend in their German Shepherd, Sadie. Every single day, I received photos and videos of them playing nonstop. It was incredibly heartwarming, and I couldn’t have been happier knowing Lucy was in such loving and capable hands. Just to put things in perspective, Shalyn, Joe, and family are about a 40 minute drive from our home, but they will always be our go to whenever we need care for Lucy. Thank you so much for everything. You are sincerely the best.”
“Mary was the best! She took such good care of my Lucy. Made her feel loved and comfortable. It is so comforting to know that my Lucy was so happy with Mary! I will definitely be looking to Mary to watch her again!”
“Rachel was so amazing to our pup Ryder! She sent us great updates and gave us peace of mind that our boy was left in good hands. He was so loved and spoiled. We will definitely be using Rachel again in the future!”
“June did a wonderful job taking care of my pup! She was very prompt in response time, and was very attentive and sent updates and multiple pictures while she took care of my pup. Thank you so much, June!”
“Christina did a great job caring for my little Yorkie Shamrock while I was out of town. My dog is shy with new people. She knew what to do and quickly won him over so he was comfortable with her. She was able to take him on walks during the day. I would highly recommend her for your pet care needs.”
About: I’ve always lived with animals and loved them, but have worked at 2 animal shelters and 2 doggy daycares. I truly enjoy being with animals of all shapes and sizes. I’m very reliable and will accommodate whatever your pet needs to feel comfortable. Since I know pet CPR and pet first aid I know the steps to take in case of an emergency. Your baby will always be in safe hands when I’m looking after them! I’m home full time and have four dogs myself, cats, as well as a 8 year old daughter and 2 year old son so pet care and child care is a full time staple in my home anyways. I’m never away from home long unless I’m going to run errands. I have four friendly dogs of varying ages, so I’m very experienced caring for pets with different needs and personalities. I always follow any routines and rules you set for your pet, including potty breaks whenever they need them. Safety is very important to me, and when it’s time to come inside, I make sure the environment is free of anything your pet could get into or accidentally choke on.
“Meredith was so great at keeping me informed and sending pictures of my pup while we were away on our trip. She seems to really know a lot about dogs and I love the fact that she has veterinary tech experience and dog training certification! My pup was very happy there and I will certainly use Meredith again!”
“Ashley took great care of our husky, Cleo. We got so many pictures and videos which was really appreciated! Ashley was very communicative throughout the stay. We would definitely board Cleo with her again and highly recommend her services to anyone looking for doggie daycare and boarding in the area!”
“Emily and family treated our Briggs like their own. They went on walks, cozied up by the fire and had a sleepover in the living room because he can’t get up stairs very well. I was sent pictures and he looked happy and content! We will be sure to give Emily a call next time we need someone to watch Briggs!”
“Jessica took great care of Avery. She was boarding another rat terrier at the same time and took steps to ensure the two dogs got along at feeding time. Her daughter made sure Avery got lots of love and exercise. She came home happy & healthy. Overall it was a great experience.”
“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!”
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was really young. Other than always having a dog of my own, I’ve taken care of pets of family, friends, and neighbors. This past year has really been the first time I’ve been without a pet. My daughter and I have a lot of love and attention to give any furry friend. I have early mornings and late afternoon-evening open Monday-Friday open and most weekends are completely open. Holiday time will have more availability with my Thanksgiving and winter break. I have a pretty big yard and a quiet neighborhood perfect for taking walks. I plan to do my best to make sure your pet feels as at home as possible when in my care.
“Carolyn took amazing care of our pup while we were out of town for 10 days! Her communication is exceptional and she send lots of updates and pictures throughout the stay. We know that our dog is in good hands when we go out of town and leave him with Carolyn! Highly highly recommended, we could not be happier about having such a reliable sitter for our pup!!”
“Stella and her family hosted my Nora (border collie/husky) for 27 days, and I could not be happier. Nora was clearly very happy and integrated well with the family. I received frequent text updates, and never had to worry about my dog's well-being. Stella's fenced back yard is a huge asset. There were a few bumps early on a Nora acclimated to their home, but Stella and her family were very patient with her. I appreciate that so much!”

“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.”
“First time booking wirh Michelle. She lives in the same town, has all kinds of pets & loves cats. We scheduled a meet & greet to learn what the pets needed. I appreciated that very much. Michelle took fed & watered & took photos of my outdoor cats and also tried to have cuddle, offer affection & pet them time as booked, but cats werent used to her. I thanked her for trying. Good experience and very reliable.”

“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!!”
“Jessica is great with the drop-in visit's while I was out of town! Arrived on-time and sent a card with Blizzard's picture to let me know how he was doing. Would definitely use her again!!”
“Cydney was wonderful and a huge relief to our family as we were scrambling to find a last minute carer for our socially needy cat over a three day weekend! She consistently communicated with us with updates, including photos that showed us how relaxed our cat was with her presence during visits. We were very lucky to be able to book with someone who understood our human & cat needs during our time apart. Highly recommend :)”

About: e grown up with dogs my whole life and consider them part of the family. I love being around dogs and have experience house-sitting, walking, and caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I’m comfortable handling different energy levels and individual needs, and I always make sure dogs feel safe, cared for, and loved while in my care. Pet care is a big part of my daily routine and something I genuinely enjoy. I have a golden retriever puppy, and since I grew up with dogs, caring for him feels very natural to me. Every day starts and ends with walks, and throughout the week I make sure he gets plenty of exercise and socialization by taking him to the dog park regularly. At home, we spend a lot of time playing tug-of-war or fetch to keep him active and engaged. Because he has a sensitive stomach, I also prepare fresh homemade meals for him twice a day, so meal prep is built into my routine as well. One of my favorite parts of the day is winding down in the evening by cuddling up with my pup and reading a good book. Overall, caring for him is woven into both my daily schedule and the way I like to relax and spend my time. I am going back to school in the fall and do not currently work so my schedule is extremely flexible to take care of your pups :) I provide a safe, attentive, and loving environment for pets in both my home and my client’s home. In my home, pets have access to a secure fenced-in yard for supervised outdoor time, play, and exercise. I also have a friendly golden retriever puppy who enjoys being around other dogs, but I can easily separate him if a pet prefers their own space or needs a calmer environment. I stick closely to each pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any special care instructions. I have experience caring for dogs with sensitive stomachs, so I’m comfortable preparing fresh meals, following dietary restrictions, and administering basic care as needed. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection so they feel comfortable and cared for while away from their owners. In a client’s home, I focus on keeping pets comfortable by maintaining their familiar routine and environment. I provide regular walks, playtime, feeding, fresh water, cleanup, and lots of companionship, while also treating the home respectfully and keeping owners updated with messages and photos.
“As anticipated, both dogs stuck to the floor upon returning home...they were exhausted from a day of new adventures with new critters and people ! Easy drop-off and pick-up...good socializing all day long..! better than sitting home alone all day ! Next time will be even better ! Thanks !”
About: I focus on building trust so pets feel safe and comfortable. I have experience with puppies (basic training and routines) and senior dogs (gentle care, patience, and medication support). Every pet is treated like family. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine since I work from home. I’m available throughout the day for walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship, so pets get consistent attention and care rather than being left alone. I create a safe, calm, and pet-friendly environment, whether in my home or the client’s. I supervise pets closely, follow their routines, and ensure they have fresh water, proper meals, and plenty of attention. I focus on building trust, reducing stress, and making sure every pet feels comfortable and secure.
“Jill is awesome! So down to earth and just the sweetest lady you’ll meet! Was very accommodating last minute for me so I could make it to my plans and my dogs felt right at home at her house! Would recommend her to anyone!!”

About: Hello! I’m Sarah. I am an animal behavior major at Carroll University. I have owned dogs my whole life and have dog sat many. Last summer I did Rover and would love to continue to do this throughout the school year and into this summer. My family at home has a dog of our own, a 7 pound rat dog named Siggy.

I am so excited to meet your pets and spend time with them! :) I have classes so we will have to discuss availability and timing. I have classes M/W/F from 9am to 2pm, and T/Th from 3pm to 7pm. Otherwise I am around and very flexible. My partner is typically available at times when I am not so your pet would always be supervised. I can do whatever it is you expect from me to take care of your pets and give them love, attention, and fun while you are away.

About: I frequently pet sit for my both my sisters and parents animals. One was a siberian husky, another is a dachsund/terrier mix and the others were a mixed hound breed and a poodle/bichon frise. I also petsit and did overnight visits with a previous professors golden retriever and golden/Irish setter mix. I own a small mixed breed dog (similar to a Jack russell)Russell, and grew up with a Brittany Spaniel and a West Highland White Terrier. I also have frequent contact with my boyfriends parents dogs: a dachshund, and a cattle dog. I work part-time currently, and am scheduled Wed, Thurs, and Fri, and the occasional Saturday. I am available Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday all day, and mornings on Wed, and Thurs. I currently live in a condo so my small dog is ideal for the space. Since my dog is reactive to other dogs, I would be doing only clients homes overnights, visits, and walks.
About: I have been working at grooming salons, pet daycares, boarding, training facilities and have volunteered in shelters for over 10 years. I have 2 dogs of my own and an 13 year old daughter. She even wants to be a vet one day so animals are a big thing in this family. Our life revolves around animals and always has. I am dog and cat CPR and first aid certified through PetTech. I am knowledgeable on specific breed traits and I'm excellent at reading dog body language. I have no breed restrictions as long as they are people friendly. Feel free to send me a message, ask questions, and see how I can serve you and your fur babies! I am a stay at home parent so I am extremely flexible. My daughter does dance in afternoons but that is something easy enough we can definitely work around. I have 2 dogs, 2 leopard geckos and a corn snake so pet care is def a daily thing in this house. Life without pets would be boring. I treat every animal like my own! Animals are wayyy better than people most times and each animal no matter the temperament deserves love. I know some take a bit to trust new people and I’m always down for some slow introductions to make your fur baby the most comfortable and relaxed.
About: I’ve grown up with two dogs—one small and one large—so I’m comfortable handling all sizes. I enjoy caring for high-energy dogs just as much as calm, cuddly ones. Whether it’s playtime or downtime, I adapt to each dog’s personality and needs. I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I do not have a job, I am looking but am currently unemployed and starting school again in August! I will have plenty of time to visit your pups this summer and even during school:) I have a fenced backyard with lots of space and trees for your dog to run around!! I have a Big German Shepard who is friendly and loves to play with other dogs outside!!
About: I have taken care of my own pets (Dogs, cats and even bunnies) sense I was 6. I started watching friends and families pets at just 10. I am a huge animal lover and have never met a dog I couldn’t win over ❤️ I have a bunny named Ella who has just turned 4. She is honestly sometimes the reason i wake up in the morning. Her basic needs are similar to that of a dog and a cat. I believe than an animal is an equal member of the family. They are the babies that comfort and bring smiles to the family. That being said if they want attention, they will get as much attention as they want when I am around. I am all about routines when it comes to food and treats however, I also think it is important to switch things up now and than (such as a walking route) to make the day exciting for them.
About: I’ve had a multitude of dog sitting experience throughout the past 5 years! From puppies to seniors I can do it all to make ur furry baby happy :) I currently work part time as a barista while I attend Rock Valley College where I play basketball and am majoring in business! If you’re looking for a punctual sitter I am the one for you!✅ I love to stay as close to their routine as possible! I prioritize your pets comfortabilty and happiness while respecting any rules you prefer for them to follow.

“Deanne kept all three of our dogs when we were out of town for four days. She kept us informed how they were doing and sent pictures so we could see them and they had all settled in well with her crew. So glad we found her in Rover!”
“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.”
“Alicia was the best! I knew from our meet and greet that she was going to be great with Tig and of course she was. I had no worries while we were out of town as she sent updates and photos of our Tig often. I can tell he is going to miss his new hangout and all their love & cuddles. I will absolutely book again if I need to in the future.”
“The dogs had a great time during their first stay here! Sumer and her family were able to take them some what short notice as our long time boarder was unexpectedly moving out of town and we really appreciated that. They took great care of the dogs and our dogs had fun playing with their pups. They have a good size backyard and we were happy to get pictures and updates that they were doing well. Thanks again!”
“I can’t speak highly enough about Shalyn, Joe, and their family. We went away for an extended period of time and were adamant about finding the perfect dog sitter for our girl Lucy, and that’s exactly what we found. From the moment they took her in, they made Lucy part of their family. Not to mention, she found a new best friend in their German Shepherd, Sadie. Every single day, I received photos and videos of them playing nonstop. It was incredibly heartwarming, and I couldn’t have been happier knowing Lucy was in such loving and capable hands. Just to put things in perspective, Shalyn, Joe, and family are about a 40 minute drive from our home, but they will always be our go to whenever we need care for Lucy. Thank you so much for everything. You are sincerely the best.”
“Mary was the best! She took such good care of my Lucy. Made her feel loved and comfortable. It is so comforting to know that my Lucy was so happy with Mary! I will definitely be looking to Mary to watch her again!”
“Rachel was so amazing to our pup Ryder! She sent us great updates and gave us peace of mind that our boy was left in good hands. He was so loved and spoiled. We will definitely be using Rachel again in the future!”
About: I’ve always lived with animals and loved them, but have worked at 2 animal shelters and 2 doggy daycares. I truly enjoy being with animals of all shapes and sizes. I’m very reliable and will accommodate whatever your pet needs to feel comfortable. Since I know pet CPR and pet first aid I know the steps to take in case of an emergency. Your baby will always be in safe hands when I’m looking after them! I’m home full time and have four dogs myself, cats, as well as a 8 year old daughter and 2 year old son so pet care and child care is a full time staple in my home anyways. I’m never away from home long unless I’m going to run errands. I have four friendly dogs of varying ages, so I’m very experienced caring for pets with different needs and personalities. I always follow any routines and rules you set for your pet, including potty breaks whenever they need them. Safety is very important to me, and when it’s time to come inside, I make sure the environment is free of anything your pet could get into or accidentally choke on.
“Meredith was so great at keeping me informed and sending pictures of my pup while we were away on our trip. She seems to really know a lot about dogs and I love the fact that she has veterinary tech experience and dog training certification! My pup was very happy there and I will certainly use Meredith again!”
“Ashley took great care of our husky, Cleo. We got so many pictures and videos which was really appreciated! Ashley was very communicative throughout the stay. We would definitely board Cleo with her again and highly recommend her services to anyone looking for doggie daycare and boarding in the area!”
“Emily and family treated our Briggs like their own. They went on walks, cozied up by the fire and had a sleepover in the living room because he can’t get up stairs very well. I was sent pictures and he looked happy and content! We will be sure to give Emily a call next time we need someone to watch Briggs!”
“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!”
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was really young. Other than always having a dog of my own, I’ve taken care of pets of family, friends, and neighbors. This past year has really been the first time I’ve been without a pet. My daughter and I have a lot of love and attention to give any furry friend. I have early mornings and late afternoon-evening open Monday-Friday open and most weekends are completely open. Holiday time will have more availability with my Thanksgiving and winter break. I have a pretty big yard and a quiet neighborhood perfect for taking walks. I plan to do my best to make sure your pet feels as at home as possible when in my care.
“Carolyn took amazing care of our pup while we were out of town for 10 days! Her communication is exceptional and she send lots of updates and pictures throughout the stay. We know that our dog is in good hands when we go out of town and leave him with Carolyn! Highly highly recommended, we could not be happier about having such a reliable sitter for our pup!!”
“Stella and her family hosted my Nora (border collie/husky) for 27 days, and I could not be happier. Nora was clearly very happy and integrated well with the family. I received frequent text updates, and never had to worry about my dog's well-being. Stella's fenced back yard is a huge asset. There were a few bumps early on a Nora acclimated to their home, but Stella and her family were very patient with her. I appreciate that so much!”
“She's simply the best! Reliable, caring, and good at keeping in touch. Sending me photos daily and brief updates on what Sugar is doing. Thank you, Beth! You made taking this vacation a little easier knowing Sugar was in good hands.”
“I am very pleased with Tanya's care and attention. She provides a CLEAN place and a space where your pet would be comfortable. She's communicative and her price point is very justifiable as she provides top care. She's by far the best! Would highly recommend.”
About: Dogs have always been a huge part of our family. Last year, we said goodbye to our English Bulldog after 12 wonderful years, and while my family is not quite ready for another forever pup yet, I am excited to open our home and hearts to other dogs in the meantime. I work from home full-time, so your pup will have lots of attention, care, and supervision throughout the day. I understand how important it is to know your pet is safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away, and I'll treat your dog like part of the family. Whether your pup loves playtime, walks, cuddles, or just relaxing company, I'm happy to provide a loving and comfortable environment. I work from home full-time during the work week, which allows me to provide flexible scheduling, frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of attention throughout the day. Your pup won’t be left alone for long periods and will have plenty of companionship and supervision while in my care. I’m available for boarding, daycare, and drop-in visits with a schedule that can accommodate most pet needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I live in the country on a full acre with a large fenced-in backyard, giving dogs plenty of safe space to run, explore, and play. Our home provides a calm, loving environment where pets can feel comfortable and relaxed while away from their families. Pets receive lots of supervision, attention, and care throughout the day. I’ll always treat your dog like part of the family and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved during their stay.
“This was my first time meeting Debbie and she did a fantastic job with our black labrador! I can tell he enjoyed his almost full-week stay with Debbie! She is wonderful and I will be seeking her for pet care services in the future.”
“I used Carla for the first time and I will definitely use her again. My dog is extremely active and gets bored easily (can't trust him alone in the house). Carla sent me videos and pictures of him playing with her golden and he had a great time and was active all day. We just came home and he is super tired just relaxing by my feet. Thank you for watching him Carla!”
