“Maria took such excellent care of my dog, she really went above and beyond in making sure he was safe, comfortable, and cared for ! I wasn’t expecting it to be so snowy while I was away, and she provided shoes and a coat for him to borrow: so thoughtful and really providing the best care ! As a highlight she also sent many photos and videos and was very responsive via Rover. I highly recommend Maria !”
“I can’t say enough good things about Angelica! My shih tzu is a nervous boy with special needs and Angelica was so wonderful to him. She took expert care of his eye (he needs one cleaned a certain way) and was so good to him when an unexpected thunderstorm rolled through on one of the nights he was staying with her (he absolutely hates thunder). Her home is set up perfectly for dogs, too. I can’t possibly recommend her enough!”
“So, I know she was awesome because I was waiting for my puppies/babies to be super excited and uncontrollable when they saw me and NOPE they were cool calm and collected because they really liked Jan. They felt at home with her and not sure what she did, but they are definitely more chill. I will only use Jan going forward if she'll have us because she's also reasonable price wise.”
“Joe and Camille have a beautiful home, with a wonderful and fenced back yard. They take awesome care of my 17-yr old Chiweenie, Charlie. And they only take one dog at a time.”
“Laurianne and Sven were amazing! They sent updates and pictures each day and I felt like my pup was in good hands the whole time. Will definitely be using them again on future trips!”
“Jasmine was amazing to work with. We have an elderly dog who needs gentle care and Jasmine definitely provided that. We received frequent updates and pictures which put us at ease knowing our dog was having a great time and in caring hands. We highly recommend Jasmine for your pet care needs!”
“Kuma had a great time with Connie and her sweet dog, JoJo! Connie was flexible with drop off/pick up, communicative, and sent photo and video updates- I’d definitely recommend Connie for all pet sitting needs!”
“Baily did an outstanding job taking care of our little Greta (6 years old pug/boston terrier mix rescue). She kept us updated on Greta's stay with her and it was obvious from the updates and accompanying photos that Greta was feeling right at home and being showered with affection by Baily.”
“We feel safe leaving our dog with Joe. He loves dogs and sends us great photos of what our girl is up to each day. She will be back again for our next trip!”
“Shirley was a natural with Snowflake. It was like they were already old pals even though this was her first stay. I appreciated Shirley keeping updated with great pictures; that kept me at ease. And she was great with her communication. Thanks so much Shirley!!”
“Natalie took great care of our dog Coco. She gave me updates on how he was doing throughout his stay. She responded very quickly to all of my messages and questions. I will definitely utilize Natalie’s services in the future and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to others!”
“Everything about the experience was so smooth and easy. Can’t say enough about Robert’s communication. We got many updates throughout the week that we were gone with lots of pictures. The backyard has lots of room for the dogs to run. A+ experience!”
“Andrea was my first sitter on Rover. It couldn't be better. After meeting her and her family I went very calmly on my vacation. Athena would stay with her again without a doubt.”
“Deb and Doug and family take such great care of Jenny. Lots of attention. It is truly like a second home for her! She is looking forward to more visits.”
“Beryl was great to work with, and I would definitely want to book her again. She is organized and prompt in her communication and super reliable with rover responsibilities. Plus the dog (s) were a big fan of hers as well. They knew they were safe and well-cared for. Thanks Beryl!”
“Jessica couldn’t be any sweeter. We have a 12 year old Great Dane, and certainly no longer an easy dog to take care of (although sweet!) Jessica went above and beyond to make him comfortable and happy. So much so he didn’t want to leave!!! Not enough good things to say about Jessica, her husband, or Capone. Highly recommended 😍”
“Gabriela and Richard were so kind and sweet with my toy poodle! They even took her on little adventures to get doggie ice cream and nice walks around the neighborhood, aside from plenty of outside time in their own fenced-in backyard! Gabriela was super great about texting updates and super cute pics of my girl! And they even got her to eat a good bit while I was away even though she usually tries to go on a hunger strike in my absence. Gabriela met us for like 15 mins at the local park before boarding and got to know my dog and garner some info from me, which I really appreciated and not a lot of boarders do that! My girl was very happy when I picked her up and I would absolutely rebook Gabriela and Richard! Highly recommend!”

“We’ve hired Keely before and she continues to be a top-notch caregiver for our two cats. She goes above and beyond to make sure they are well looked after and follows up with plenty of pictures to make sure we know they are doing fine. We will 100% use her again and cannot recommend her highly enough”
“Chris made me feel at ease about leaving my cat with a sitter, which was something I really worried about. She sent great updates and pictures and clearly had a great time hanging out and playing with my little cuddle monster.”
“I cannot recommend her enough! ❤️ I was honestly so nervous about leaving my sweet kitten, Gemma, since she’s still so young, but she completely put my mind at ease from the very beginning. She took such incredible care of Gemma and treated her like she was her own. She constantly sent me pictures, videos, and detailed updates about how Gemma’s day was going, which meant so much to me. I never had to wonder how she was doing because I always knew she was in the best hands. What impressed me the most was how quickly Gemma felt comfortable. Within the first hour, she was already playing, exploring, and acting like she was right at home! It was obvious that she felt safe, loved, and happy, and that speaks volumes about how caring and attentive she is. If you’re looking for someone who will genuinely care for your pet, communicate with you, and make your furry friend feel completely at home, look no further. I would trust her with Gemma again in a heartbeat, and she’ll absolutely be my go-to cat sitter for all future trips. Thank you so much for taking such amazing care of my sweet baby! 🥹🐾💕”
“We were glad to find Coleen last minute and having our 2 cats well taken care of. She made effort to get familiar with the kitties who can be shy and scared of new people. She was also thoughtful in their comfort level both with her and all around in the apartment when we were away. It was assuring to read the detailed visit summary that Coleen made.”
“Heather is Amazing with our Fur babies!! She treats them both like her own :) I would highly recommend her to anyone who needs help with their fur babies!! Thanks again so much for all your help!!”
About: I’ve had cats in my life forever. I raised my first cat from age 10 through marriage. I’m currently bonded to an 18 year old Balinese. I understand cats need their own routine, space, and quiet time, and I’m happy to give them exactly that while you’re away.
“Rhianna was very communicative and provided great updates about Momo. She was also very kind and flexible with rescheduling the meet and great due to family illnesses and modifying the visit when our geriatric girl passed prior to the trip. She went above and beyond my expectations including cleaning the litter boxes more frequently, tidying around the litter boxes, food area, and Momo's vomit/hairballs.”
“I had a great experience with my dog sitter! She did an amazing job taking care of my dogs and made sure they were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I really appreciated the care and attention she gave them. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter, and I would absolutely book with her again! 🐶❤️”
“Karina is very communicative and took good care of our cat, who can be skeptical of strangers. But she accepted Karina really quickly. From the video and picture shared with us, you can tell Karina knows how to approach animals and makes our cat comfortable with her. We appreciate Karina keeping our cat company while we are away.”
“Crystal took excellent care of our two cats, was a wonderful communicator and left our house clean and tidy! She even gave them special catnip treats and left us two actual photographs of our babies. Highly recommend her for attentive care!”
About: I’ve often been told I’m a bit of a “dog whisperer” because pups seem to gravitate toward me, and I think it’s because they can sense my genuine love for animals. I’ve been a dog lover since childhood, growing up with 4 family dogs, and that passion has only grown over the years. I recently cared for my own senior pomeranian, who lived to 18, so I understand the patience, gentleness, and extra attention that senior pups need. On the other end of the spectrum, I know the energy and consistency it takes to care for playful puppies. Right now, I share my home with two spoiled rescue dogs, Chico (chihuahua) and Squeaks (tripod Pomeranian) who remind me daily how much joy and comfort pets bring into our lives and family. I have taught my dogs how to sit, stay, down, shake, come, and spin. So maybe I can even teach your dog some new tricks :) I also know how stressful it can be to leave your furry family member at home. My goal is to be their bright spot while you’re away, whether that’s a walk, a potty break, or simply some kisses, belly rubs, and companionship. I’ll treat your dog like one of my own! I currently work from home and have a flexible schedule to fit in drop-ins, potty breaks, quick walks (10-15) min, kisses and belly rubs during the day while you are away! Right now I only offer drop-ins, potty breaks, and quick walks for your furry babies. I do not offer any home services at my personal residence. If any service is requested outside of the normal services offered, I would be happy to help and discuss prior to my drop-in visit.
About: I’ve cared for cats for many years and truly understand their unique personalities and routines. I’ve owned two cats and have experience with feeding schedules, litter box maintenance, playtime, and giving cats the space they need to feel comfortable. Friends and family have trusted me to check in on their cats while they’re away, and I always make sure each cat feels safe, calm, and cared for. I’m patient, observant, and attentive to changes in behavior, and I treat every cat as if they were my own.
About: My husband and I have always been dog people. Growing up he had two labradors and I had a beagle. When we bought our house we adopted a senior lab. We spoiled him as much as we could and loved him unconditionally. After losing Ceasar two years ago, we walked into an animal shelter and that's where our baby, Uru-Kai, stole our hearts. I don't work on weekends, I have holidays off and the summer off. I already have a dog so I know how important it is to stick to a routine. Our current dog goes out on four walks a day. If he needs to go potty because he drank too much water we let him in the back yard. If he seems bored he rings the doorbell to be let in the backyard. When we need to leave the house our dog is put in his crate to ensure that he's safe and stays out of trouble while we're gone.
About: USE THIS LINK FOR $20.00 OFF FIRST BOOKING WITH ME https://www.rover.com/sit/jonelr56094 My name is Jonelle. I recently retired from The Office of the Chief Judge Circuit Court of Cook County. I have owned, fostered and rescued almost every type of animal from dogs, cats, rabbits and reptiles. I have volunteered at animal shelters as well. I have owned multiple dogs in my life and I am trained to administer medicine and CPR as well as senior dog care. I have fostered litters of abandoned wild bunnies as well as puppies. I'm recently retired and animals are my true passion in life. I can think of no other way I would love to spend my time now then caring for animals. Rest assured I am always home. Your Pet will never be alone. I have a very large fenced in yard conveniently located near O'Hare if you are catching a flight and need your pet cared for. I have 2 shihtzu's who get along great with other dogs of all sizes. All animals will have free reign of my home. I will only crate if requested by the owner. I will treat your animals like my own. They will be allowed on my couch and my bed. It's important to me they feel comfortable as it can be intimidating to be in a new environment.

“Jan was so easy to communicate with, worked with our schedule and took great care of our pup for the day. We were at ease knowing she was cared for. We would definitely use her again.”
“I’m so impress! Jackie is so responsive and always update the condition of my dog Bentley. She is very good with dogs. Thank you Jackie for taking care of my baby. I highly recommend her and will use her in the future.”
“Arlene is great! Benny was so excited to return to her house. She went out of her way to make pickup easy - taking him to the park, where we were able to meet her. Great service and care.”
“The best Rover caregiver! We feel so lucky to have found her! Camille sincerely enjoys having our pup stay with her. She welcomes him into her home and treats him like family along with her sweet dog Rosie. Our dog enjoys a stress-free day being at home and part of a second family, taking leisurely walks along their quiet tree-lined neighborhood, sniffing for squirrels and rabbits in the park, indulging in play with Rosie anytime he wants in her grassy back yard along with songbirds to boot. What more could a dog ask for? We couldn't be happier having our dog stay with Camille. Thank you!”
“Thank you for having Addison over for a play date! Emily was easy to communicate with, accommodating to my schedule and send frequent status updates! Addison took a post play day nap within 10 mins of being home!”
“We appreciate how Sasha took such good care of our senior dog. He enjoyed meeting her dog and napping in her comfortable home. She responded quickly to our initial request, communicated clearly along the way, and sent several cute photos. I definitely recommend Sasha!”
About: I’ve cared for 7 dogs and 2 cats throughout their full life span, from puppyhood and kittenhood to senior years, including pets with special senior care needs. I’m confident handling large dogs and focus on structured walks, mental stimulation, and enriching playtime. As a psychotherapist, patience, intuition, and compassionate care come naturally to me. My schedule is very flexible I'm currently part time and work from home. I can be available on notice from 9am-10pm. I am able to do daily and weekly care/walking/play. I have a fenced yard. Two cats who are used to visitors and other animals. I can also crate animal if requested, use baby fence and adapt to living requirements specific to client needs.
“Hands down one of the best sitters EVER! My cuddle bug had been going to her previous sitter for about 5 months and was still trying to warm up to them. However, after a week with Jonelle, Gina was wiggling her butt ready to go. One day she just walked into Jonelle's house without turning back to say bye or to whine. She's truly amazing and makes sure your dogs are treated as part of her family. Her family is just as great about letting your dog have space and build up comfort to bond with them. If you want someone who has great communication, is compassionate, and loves on your dogs (to the point you might consider your dog a traitor) then Jonelle is absolutely the person for you. All around a great person and sitter.”
About: I have grown up with dogs and taken care of family, friends, and neighbors dogs for many years! We love to go on walks, dog parks, play fetch, cuddle, and many more! We also have a fenced rooftop where the dogs love to play, get some fresh air, and run around! I currently work from home and can make my own schedule so I would love to add other pups to take care of during my days along with my 2 year old mini bernedoodle who loves to play! We have an open spaced living area where they have free access throughout along with a fenced rooftop area for the dogs to play and a neighborhood for walking! I have a friendly mini bernedoodle who loves all dogs!
About: I’ve owned dogs most of my life and consistently for the past 11 years — small or large, puppy or senior, I love them all. My own pets thrive on routine, so your dog will get consistent walks, feeding times, and plenty of attention while you’re away. I currently share my home with a pug and an 18-year-old cat, so I’m comfortable with pets of all ages and energy levels. Pug mom + cat whisperer offering a loving, low-key place to stay I work from home, so your pet won’t be left alone for long stretches — they’ll get plenty of company, attention, and bathroom/play breaks built right into my day. Pet care isn’t an interruption to my routine, it’s part of it. Your dog will get long walks through my beautiful neighborhood, plus supervised outdoor time tethered out front alongside my pug (my yard is unfenced, so all outdoor time is supervised). I’m happy to crate your pet if you provide one, and I’ll keep them on whatever feeding and routine schedule they’re used to at home.
About: I am at home full time so I am available to always keep a close watch of your dog, take your dog outside a numerous of times. I have been sitting dogs for about 4 years now. I have experience breeding and raising chows (which is a very hard breed to raise especially for first time dog owners). There is a dog park right across the street from my home your dog would love. And around the perimeter of the dog park is a dog path. I normally walk the dogs around the dog path and then play fetch and some other games in the park. I have a gated backyard so they are allow to play back there as well. I am close to a Walgreens and across the street from a pet store so if they need anything I have easy access to that.
“My Shih Tzu, Coco had his first visit with Erica and her family. He was very excited to meet them and he had a great time. I got photos that reassured me he was happy and didn't seem to show any of the separation anxiety he has had. I'm happy to recommend Erica and Ricardo to all and I am definitely adding them to my list of fave Rover people.”
“I was traveling to Chicago for an event and booked Andrea to watch my dog at her home during the day. From day one while trying to book with her, communication was quick and simple. Once I dropped my dog off at her home, I could already tell she was very attentive. All the pictures and videos she sent me during the day showed my dog was so happy and enjoying herself at her place. Not only she took great care of my baby, but also made sure to keep me at ease with my Izzy being over at her home. I highly recommend her and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again if I’m around the area.”

I have a substantial amount of experience with cats, guinea pigs, bunnies, hamsters, turtles, fish and so many others. My goal is to ensure your comfort and confidence, knowing that your pet will be loved and cared for as if it were our own.

I love to work with lists to help me to ensure all tasks are completed and that I am organized.

“We love Hillary. I am able to walk Charlie myself now but as we (Charlie and I) would miss Hillary terribly, we decided to ask her to walk Charlie two days a week. Luckily, she accepted. See? That's how wonderful she is to us.”
About: Hi! Im Cailey. Im a sophomore in college studying to become a veterinarian. I previously worked at a pet hotel for two years as a daycare attendant, groomer, and reactive dog handler. I am comfortable with breeds of all sizes and temperaments. While working at the pet hotel I was also trained on how to administer various medications both oral and injection, and I was trained in pet cpr and how to read the body language of a dog. I have three large breed dogs of my own, two of which I took to professional trainers and my most recent rescue I trained myself. I am not a professional trainer but I am quite educated on the subject! Please reach out for any grooming, pet care, or training inquires! Thank you. My dogs wake me up every morning around 7-8 to go potty and for breakfast. I take one or two of my dogs each morning to run with me. I live right next to a park we usually do two laps of. After then my dogs pretty much entertain each other until dinner time. In other peoples homes I treat them as if they were my own! Well talk everything over in person of course but just leave me detailed instructions and I will do my best to follow them to a T!
About: I’ve had pets my whole life. We’ve had dogs, cats, chickens, and ducks, so I’ve had my fair share of taking care of animals. We’ve gotten all our animals when they were babies, so I have experience with all ages. I love animals and my home would feel empty without any. I’m currently have a schedule consisting of classes and basketball. I have a bit going on, but whatever free time I have, I am available! I can stick to a schedule and do everything as close to the pet’s routine as possible. I have time to go on walks and/or let them outside in the client’s yard.

“Ian is extremely reliable and communicative. He has watched our dog Evie twice, and we have had no issues whatsoever. He watches multiple dogs at a time, knows a lot of them well from past stays, and is great about making sure the dogs are safe together - Evie has never had any issues with the other dogs and has a great time at his house. She is always well taken care of including daily walks. He also sends pictures multiple times a day and gives frequent updates. He is an outstanding dog sitter - I cannot recommend him highly enough and plan to book with him many times in the future”

“Axx enjoyed his stay with Eniya and her various family members! He had some new experiences while there and I was pleased with how well Axx responded.

I’m so happy I’ve found a reliable, competent sitter for our boy!!”

“Lorraine was awesome, It was like I left Chestnut at home she was very tentative to Chestnut he enjoyed her she sent pictures every day. Lorraine was excellent I had no worries about Chestnut while he was in her care I recommend Lorraine she will take excellent care of your pet. Chestnut can’t wait to visit again”
“Natalie took great care of our dog Coco. She gave me updates on how he was doing throughout his stay. She responded very quickly to all of my messages and questions. I will definitely utilize Natalie’s services in the future and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to others!”
“Everything about the experience was so smooth and easy. Can’t say enough about Robert’s communication. We got many updates throughout the week that we were gone with lots of pictures. The backyard has lots of room for the dogs to run. A+ experience!”
“Mariposa had her first overnight with Sophia and Andy. They shared photos during her stay and she came home tired--a sign that she had a good time. We've already rebooked two more visits.”
“Andrea was my first sitter on Rover. It couldn't be better. After meeting her and her family I went very calmly on my vacation. Athena would stay with her again without a doubt.”
“So friendly and accommodating to me and my Santi boy. He seemed so happy and comfortable arriving home so i KNOW he had a great time. Charise is a true dog lover and i look forward to booking with her again. Thank you!!”
“Best dog sitter Rylee (my dog) and I have ever had. It’s her home away from home. She comes home happy, healthy, and super sleepy from all the play. We are so lucky to have found this beautiful family. Thank you!!!!”
“Beryl was great to work with, and I would definitely want to book her again. She is organized and prompt in her communication and super reliable with rover responsibilities. Plus the dog (s) were a big fan of hers as well. They knew they were safe and well-cared for. Thanks Beryl!”
“Jessica couldn’t be any sweeter. We have a 12 year old Great Dane, and certainly no longer an easy dog to take care of (although sweet!) Jessica went above and beyond to make him comfortable and happy. So much so he didn’t want to leave!!! Not enough good things to say about Jessica, her husband, or Capone. Highly recommended 😍”
“Gabriela and Richard were so kind and sweet with my toy poodle! They even took her on little adventures to get doggie ice cream and nice walks around the neighborhood, aside from plenty of outside time in their own fenced-in backyard! Gabriela was super great about texting updates and super cute pics of my girl! And they even got her to eat a good bit while I was away even though she usually tries to go on a hunger strike in my absence. Gabriela met us for like 15 mins at the local park before boarding and got to know my dog and garner some info from me, which I really appreciated and not a lot of boarders do that! My girl was very happy when I picked her up and I would absolutely rebook Gabriela and Richard! Highly recommend!”
