I will definitely use Sharon again.”
“Iman is so lovely! I am a new dog mom of a 2 yr old husky that I adopted from the South Suburban Humane Society. I was nervous about leaving my dog as it was my first time leaving her with a sitter and I didn’t know how she’d react staying overnight with other dogs. Iman reassured me that everything would be fine and gave me updates. She even gave me samples of dog treats, that my KoKo loved. I’ll definitely use her services again.”

Thanks again Rachel, you're a superstar.”

“Omg so this was the first time I left my dog Mamba with someone else. I was extremely nervous because she has never been around anyone else but me. I wanted my dog which is basically my child be with someone who would watch her like I would if I was gone . Susseth was amazing and reassuring that my dog would be watched out for. She allowed time to ask enough questions and gave us updates as well. I enjoyed receiving videos and pictures since they called my nerves as well. I will definitely be rebooking her for my upcoming 12 day trip. My worries are put at ease. Thank you again Susseth !!!”

“Cary (and family) were great hosts for Mashed Potato. He's a pretty no fuss dog, and she matched with a similar "chill energy". We got in a Meet & Greet ahead of time (not that MP ever met a stranger or enemy, but it was a good double check), and we got photos here and there over our pretty long time away (mostly of him enjoying scratches and attention). Otherwise, it was pretty no frills and a smooth process. He came back happy and healthy.”

The backyard is double fenced allowing plenty of room to roam and play. She treats each dog as if they were her own. Ellie’s warm personality and beautiful smile made it easy for us to highly recommend her.”

“Kiana did an awesome job taking care of my pets for 8 days while I was on vacation. This is the first time that I have used Rover and it was great. I have three cats, a bunny, and a hamster. Kiana sent me pictures after each visit and my pets seemed to be happy when I got back home!”
“This was our first time using Rover. My husband and I went on a week-long trip, and we couldn't find anyone to watch our 2 kitties overnight. I was nervous because I usually like to have family watch them, as I know them. After meeting Khalia, I could tell she cared for animals, and it made me feel better. She did a great job with our little chaos gremlins, and they felt safe with her! She left everything nice and clean, respected our home, and gave us updates with pictures. The pics meant a lot! I'm a worried cat momma, so this helped with us being so far away. We'll continue to reach out to her when we need a cat sitter!”

Not only did she take care of the basics for our kitties while we were gone but she went above and beyond to help them get comfortable around her and communicate how they were doing. Excellent service, communication, and care! Thank you again Kelera, we will be in touch again soon 🙂”

About: I have a unique blend of experience that enables me to give the highest quality of care. I've been a pet mom for 15 years to dogs, cats, and pigs.

All companion animals deserve respect, to feel safe, loved, and have lots of enrichment.
About: I’m fortunate to have experience with a wide variety of animals thanks to my cousins, who have two cats, three dogs, a turtle, and a horse. I help care for their pets regularly, so I’m comfortable meeting the unique needs of animals of all kinds and treating each one like family. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I’m currently finishing up breast cancer treatment and have intentionally chosen pet sitting as my primary work. This gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I truly enjoy spending time with animals, and being able to provide reliable, loving care while I’m in this season of life has been incredibly rewarding. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their routine as consistent as possible. At my home, pets have access to a securely fenced backyard for supervised play, exercise, and potty breaks, along with plenty of attention, affection, and a comfortable place to relax. In a client’s home, I follow their pet’s established schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any other care instructions. My goal is always to help pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away.

I love to be with animals so I couldn’t think of a better way to spend my time. My entire life I have taken care of animals, let me take care of yours! 😁 I will care for your pet however you need me to in your own home. I strive to create a comfortable relationship between me and my clients.
“Iman was wonderful! I have never left my dogs before but had to in order to move. She was patient, truthful, transparent about her services, and most importantly KIND. I was a mess and she talked me through all the changes and what she thought was best for my animals. She was very professional when she met them and when we walked them. She came at all of her scheduled visits and spent time with them even sending me photos to keep me calm. Most importantly, the last photo she sent me of my little, old lady, I could tell that Leela was sad to see her new friend go. She really did a great job caring for my babies and even left me samples of her dog food. I will definitely use her again and highly recommend!!!”

About: I was always had furry siblings but have graduated to a cat mama. I enjoy creating personal heavens for our companions. Reliable, punctual and kind. I have a full-time job that pays the bills but I am looking for ways to feed my soul. Overnights are great as well as drop ins.

About: I have been a dog lover for many years and had the privilege of taking care of a chihuahua and a pug throughout their lives. Being a pet owner taught me the importance of patience and paying attention to each dogs needs and personality. I understand that pets are family, and i know how important it is to find someone you can trust. Whether we’re going for a walk, playing, or just relaxing together, I’ll provide attentive and loving care every step of the way. I’m currently working part-time, which gives me flexibility to provide care to your pup after work during the weekends. I’m completely available on wednesdays and weekends. Your pets safely and comfort are my top priorities. I have a calm, secure environment with a fenced yard for supervised outdoor time. I currently do not have any animals so your animals can enjoy an stress-free environment. As for in-home visits, I follow all instructions closely to maintain their routine and ensure they feel secure and cared for in their home.
About: Hi there! My name is Callyn. I’m new to Rover, but have been caring for pets for quite sometime now! Originally, my pet sitting started as nannying for little humans. This naturally trickled into me caring for their pets too! I’ve now found myself here to expand my services to the greater Chicagoland. I have extensive hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of pets, including animals with specialized medical and behavioral needs. My experience includes providing daily care and monitoring for cats with diabetes, such as administering medications, tracking dietary requirements, and recognizing changes in health or behavior. In addition to medical care, I am experienced in working with dogs of different temperaments, including those who may be shy, anxious, reactive, or strong-willed. I focus on building trust through patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement techniques. I have also trained dogs in foundational obedience skills, including sit, stay, heel, paw, and proper leash-walking manners. My schedule allows me to accommodate feeding routines, medication administration, exercise needs, potty breaks, and plenty of companionship. Also, LOTS OF TIME FOR PLAYING!! (: I try my best to keep pets on their everyday schedule to help them feel grounded in their owners absence. I’m happy to adjust to what that looks like for them specifically- walks to the park, sunbathing in the yard, or greeting the mailman every day.
