“Kyla tood great care of Winston. From the pictures, he had access to a good size yard that help release his puppy energy and need to play/explore. I received regular updates with photos. She was also very good with questions. She is also very experienced with dogs, especially high-energy puppies. I will definitely use her again.”
“I'm always nervous when we leave Luna with someone new, but Lorraine made it really easy with a meet and greet which made drop off simple. We received lots of pictures to reassure us. Lorraine was super easy to work with for drop off and pickup and was accomodating for Luna's minor issue with stairs. Luna came home very relaxed and tired, I'm guessing from the fun she had at Lorraine's!”
“Judith was great with Bud and Buddy! She was very thorough when answering any questions and updating me during their stay! Judith was also very flexible when my flight was delayed and ensured that the pick up went smoothly! Will definitely be booking our fur babies stay with her again for future trips because they were definitely well taken care of and had fun!”
“This is the 2nd time we’ve used Eniya - she is very responsive and kept me updated with messages and pictures throughout my dog’s stay at her house. Also took him for walks even though it was soooo cold! 🥶 Will definitely call her again!”
“SUCH A GREAT EXPERIENCE. This was my first time leaving skylar overnight with sitter from rover. luciene was soo awesome and accommodating. She kept in constant contact sent pictures and kept me in the loop about my doggies experience. Would 10/10 book again”
“Highly recommend working with Susan, she’s amazing! Susan was quick to respond & had great communications throughout the stay. She was flexible in terms of pick-up & drop-off and took great care of our pup, Sawbones. She went above & beyond, ensuring Sawbones was well taken care of. She even sent him home with a homemade bandana with his name on it!”
“Cary is fantastic! I know my dogs are well cared for at her house. She sends great pictures and when we arrived, my dogs were super happy to be there, so that says a lot! Thank you Cary!”
“Took such good care of our dog! We got lots of photo updates, which helped reassure us. She was able to accommodate all of our dog’s weird quirks and mannerisms, I could tell she ready my notes and applied those to their time together. Will absolutely use again!”
“Janet was great with my dog Guts! Took good care of him and she was very flexible and accommodating with pick up and drop off times. I will definitely be bringing Guts back to her should I need care for him in the future.”

“Shayna was excellent! We were very nervous leaving our overly anxious labradoodle for a few days and Shayna put all of those nerves to rest. She is clearly a professional. Thank you so much for everything Shayna!”
“Marissa was amazing! We did a meet and greet before his stay. Buddy settled in quickly and looked like he had a blast at her place and enjoyed the beautiful yard. She sent great pictures with updates and was very responsive!”
“Susseth was amazing!! Constantly provided updates throughout our trip & had flawless communication. You can tell from the pictures she was sending our pups felt right at home the whole time. To anyone who loves their dogs you know the anxiety that can come with boarding them while you’re away for both pet and owner.. Susseth did such a good job in alleviating that every step along the way. 100/10 would recommend !”
“Skipper had the best time with Katherine, Cory and the fam! She enjoyed playing with their dogs Brownie and Mocha so much she didn’t even want to come home after her stay! I received so many cute updates and pics and felt very calm knowing my baby was in great hands!”
“Once again, Michelle and her family took incredible care of Bilbo! They truly treat him like one of their own, and it brings so much peace of mind knowing he’s getting just as much love as he gives. The regular updates and photos keep me completely at ease while I'm away. We couldn't ask for a better sitter and cannot recommend Michelle highly enough!”
“Another great boarding visit! I’ve had to travel a bit more unexpectedly for work lately and Liliia has been so accommodating! As always great communication along daily videos/pics.”

They love him, and I get so happy when I see the daily pics from Luis of all of them together. When I come home, my girls barely notice me 😂 it’s very cute and we owe that all to Luis’s thoughtfulness and care!”
“Jessica kept us fully informed, with photos, about our cats every day she looked after them. We felt fully confident and reassured throughout. She also went above and beyond, attending to some pet-inspired messes (a vase knocked over, for example, spilling water everywhere) with the utmost care. We could not have been more pleased and gratified by Jessica’s dedication and skill and would recommend her without qualification.”
“After having to have an emergency scheduling Stephanie was absolutely fantastic, she was quick to reply, communicative, respectful and very kind. She gave us constant updates on our cat Freyja along with photos. We would happily use her services again.”

“Alicia takes great care of the cats, and goes above and beyond when non-pet related issues come up. Thank you so much for starting the basement sump pump while I drove home to deal with the flooded basement!”

She sent us lot of great pictures and let us know how he was doing each day. We were happy our kitty was in a such good hands. We will definitely be using Kate again. :-)”

“Estefanía took awesome care of my kitty Moji! She was always on time to the drop-in, sent plenty of photos, and very quickly converted my shy scaredy cat to her usual sweet self. Thanks Estefanía!”
“Stephanie is fantastic. She went above and beyond for our cats, especially since one requires medicine twice a day and had been jumping from too high. She took care of a few small things around the house when a short heat wave came through and we learned that our feeder was empty. Our cats really took to her, which is meaningful for our shy guy.”
“As a repeat customer, I think Maribel is the absolute best!! My kitty wasn’t feeling well and she went above and beyond to make sure he was doing okay. He’s now feeling much better and already misses playing with her!”

“My dog Coco had a wonderful time with Emily and Amy and their dog, Pepperoni 🌶. I would certainly recommend Emily to anyone needing doggy day care. And I will certainly bring Coco again.”
“Dayana was a great dogsitter to our puppy Honey. She sent pictures and videos throughout the day of Honey having fun and being taken on walks, and she was very nice and communicative. I will definitely be reaching back out for more dog sitting with Dayana!”

Please bring dog beds and food. We can’t wait to host your little friend! We work from home full time and plenty the time to dedicate to watching and playing with the pups!

As a proud dog owner ourselves, the pups are never far from our minds and will get plenty of attention…maybe too much lol
“Katie was GREAT! We set up a meet and great, which went great! Katie was super communicative and sent us a lot of pictures! We definitely felt like our dog was in good hands and had a great time!”
“Michelle was absolutely fantastic - one of the best Rover's we've ever worked with. She was very responsive and flexible with our timings, sent numerous pictures throughout the day, and took excellent care of our Millie. Millie had a great time at her place and left happy - will definitely be comfortable leaving Millie with Michelle and her family again!”
“My pup has never gone an entire day without one of us over the last two and a half years (I know, I know) but Robby and Nikki were so patient with his anxiety and he had a really fun day. We just found his home away from home ☺️”
“Great experience with Ethel. We came in from out of town to watch a Red Stars game and she took care of our bernedoodle, Frankie. Ethel’s place is a very short way from SeatGeek Stadium and Frankie came back to us happy.”
“Malchom and his family are the dog sitters you are looking for. He is on the spot with communication. The pictures I relieved of Fritz playing and resting with his children and the warm updates about walks left me feeling that he was exceptionally well taken care of which is of course a welcomed delight during a hard day of work. If you’re in the Oak Park area and in need of some doggy day care Malchom is the preferred choice.”
“Danielle and her family were wonderful with Blackie. He's a lab mix that can be a little anxious when he is away from us, but they treated Blackie like their own. If the pup is happy, we are happy and we plan to use Danielle again!”
“Marissa went above and beyond taking care of Theo! She took him on a 3 mile walk, sent lots of pics, and was understanding about a late pickup. Thanks Marissa!”
About: I grew up taking care and even sitting some of my mom's friends dogs. In my teens I would take care and sit a few family members dogs. I then volunteered at a puppy adoption center in Mexico. I am currently only attending school on Friday mornings from 8am to 12pm. I will update my schedule once I go back to tutoring or when my classes change. I will ensure that your pets get the care they need and the exercise they need. I will also pay attention to any requests your pets may need.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I was young. I’ve had many dogs over the years and all were loved, cared for, and given a life they deserve. I’m currently working part time and have hybrid classes. So, I have time to meet the needs of families and their fur babies. I am available to drop in the day, or spend nights to make sure your animals are cared for. I make sure they have clean water and food when needed. I let them out to run around and take pets on walks. I brush animals to make their coats soft, and offer baths.
“Jessica helped us out with walking our two dogs when we were traveling for two weeks. Our dogs are both pretty anxious, and one of them can be particularly difficult to work with, but Jessica was great! She's very kind and gentle with the dogs, and is very reliable. An excellent experience.”
“Amazing, reliable dog walker! Was able to help me out on short notice. Always is great with my pup who loves her and gives detailed comments on how the walk went which is really nice!”
“Tamara is amazing. Our dog Luna loves her walks with her. We know she is in good hands. I would recommend Tamara to anyone that has a dog and wants to know your baby is taking care of.”
“I’m so glad Edgar is taking care of my dog during the day. I love getting my message and pictures, and I know he’s getting exercise, a potty break and some attention. I highly recommend Edgar to anyone looking for a dog walker!”
About: Low rate as I acquire clients. I recently came back to this app. Therapist by trade and a pet lover in general :) I have three pets and one of them is a two year old mini Aussie. I regularly support a neighbor with their 11 year old pup and would like the opportunity to support your family in: * Teeth brushing * Crate Training * Baths & Grooming, at your request. * Walks around or in your neighborhood. * Administering medication. * Basic clicker training: I can support you and your pet(s) in reinforcing, sit, wait, spin, drop, high five, recall. * Exposure training for the anxious pups * All the cuddles, playing, and mental stimulation with safety in mind. Right now my availability is flexible after 10am and before 3:30pm. Late evening are open as well for walks. Message me, maybe we can figure something out! I will treat your pet as you do. I’m interested in what their day to day schedule looks like, their likes and dislikes, favorite toys, and how to best earn their trust.
“Alex does great with our 5 month old puppy that already weighs 100 pounds, it helps so much he adds training tips to their walk as I am disabled and need pup to always stay in heal on my left. Alex does a great job teaching him on the walks!”
“I always feel so much more at ease when Stephanie checks in on my little lady Lilah when I have a long day at work! And Lilah is a much happier camper when I get home.”
“I am so happy to be able to rely on the fact that James is extremely punctual. He is here every morning at the designated time. He has been patient with my small dog, who has a preference for women and has had to grow accustomed to a male dog walker. James has given him space and encouragement.”
“Our regular dog walker was out for a week so we contacted Rosario. Not only was she happy to do a meet and greet, she was incredibly kind and patient with our nervous, shy dog. Our dog Dylan takes a VERY long time to warm up to new people, and Rosario spent more than our booked time coaxing her into going out for a potty break. She sent multiple videos and pics, and communicated with us through the whole process. I would recommend her 110%, she is an absolute angel.”
“Ryann was great with our puppy who has tons of energy and can be a handful at times! She sent plenty of updates and was very respectful and responsive in communications. Definitely will book again!”
“Angelina is fantastic with Griffey! She is super communicative, punctual, and makes me feel at ease knowing he is in good hands. Love the updates and photos too; it’s clear she really cares. Highly recommend!!”
About: Hi, I’m Gabriela! Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember, and I’ve been officially pet sitting since 2023. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and energy levels, from playful puppies who need extra attention to gentle senior dogs who require a softer touch and steady routine. Because I work a standard 9-to-4 schedule Monday through Friday, I’m available for evening visits and overnights during the week, with full, open availability on the weekends. I’m proud to have maintained a 4.9-star rating across 64 reviews, and I always aim to give every dog the same genuine care, comfort, and attention I'd want for my own. Weekday care is ideal for drop ins or dogs that are used to this schedule. Weekends offer complete flexibility for full day care, longer walks, or taking on puppies and dogs with higher daytime needs. I have 1 pup that is extremely friendly and loves to make new friends. This is good for pups that are used to having someone around so that they don’t feel lonely.
“Artiss has walked my pup multiple times, and he has always been happy to see her! She has done a great job managing his high energy level, sent wonderful photo updates, and always made sure he went to the bathroom.”
“Desiree was so thoughtful and went above and beyond to take care of the dogs (and my cat despite me not mentioning him)! The pups and I feel very very taken care of!”
“Gina is very kind and patient with our anxious dog. She even helped me administer his insulin shots a couple times. Good communication. I always knew exactly when she would be arriving.”

She has a huge backyard for dogs to play and she loves Luna like she is her own. She even left us some treats for Luna. I recommend Tamara for any services with your fur babies.”

“Jamie was fantastic! I got so many updates of PoBoy throughout the weekend without having to ask. He looked happy & at home at Jamie’s house, and he loved having a playmate there with her dog Moon! I will definitely be booking with Jamie again.”
“From the meet and greet to pick up, Brian was amazing. Our pup needs a one dog house and trying to find that over a holiday was challenging. We lucked out last minute and happened to find Brian; what a find! Brian has a lot of experience with animals and we felt very comfortable at our meet and greet. His fenced in backyard was a major plus. Since we were overseas at the time, we were apprehensive to leave her with someone new but Brian was awesome. He asked important questions before we dropped her off and was attentive to her needs and personality. We got updates through Rover with pics and videos. Our pup had to take some meds as well while we were gone and he administered them - she was feeling her usual, happy self when we got back. I would definitely recommend Brian and will definitely be trusting him next time we have to find a sitter. Thank you!”
“This is one of the best experiences we've had with a dog sitter. She was so communicative and kind to our dogs. They genuinely haven't come home this happy in a while. 10/10 would recommend”
“So this was our very first time using the Rover app and services. Ms. Cheryl is one of the best pet sitters ever! She did an amazing job with making sure our Rocky was well-cared-for. She sent pictures and updates and any questions she had, she sent them to us before doing anything that could cause Rocky any stress. She also gave us grape tips ,advice and suggestions for how to better care for Rocky as a husky breed. She gave us such a great experience that we will definitely use her in the future. Ms. Cheryl, you rock!”
