“We have never felt so comfortable boarding any of our dogs as we have with Gloria and Mark. They treat your dog like family, and they give the best one on one attention that I have ever seen. They send pictures, have a wonderful set up for your dog with toys and treats, lounging and sleeping arrangements, and even neighbors who will come by and say hi. I cannot fully express just how amazing the experience is. Thank you so much for your kindness to us and to Summer.”
“Thank you, Aratrika and Arjun, for taking great care of Chewie, being willing to do a meet and greet, and sending so many great updates and pictures! Chewie seems happy after his weekend with you :)”
“Meghan took care of our dog while we are traveling over the holidays. When we had a family emergency come up and couldn't get back, she kindly offered to continue looking after him. We appreciate knowing that our dog is well taken care of in a difficult time. Will definitely book again.”
“First time ever having a sitter take care of of my cat and dog. She gave me updates and made sure she was properly cared for! i described the littler box needed to be cleaned once a day and it was so clean when i got it back i was so grateful! My dog had so much fun and she came back 10x softer! I booked multiple nights back to back and she kept going on with amazing care”
“Caitlin has so much patience and compassion with dogs! Our Lucy has stayed with her twice now. Most recently Lucy had been sick and still wasn’t feeling well when we took her over. Caitlin was able to get Lucy to start eating well again and encouraged her to interact with the other dogs. Caitlin is extremely organized and sends photos and texts regularly. She and her family seemed to enjoy cuddling with Lucy. We’ll definitely use Caitlin the next time we travel.”
“Feiran and her family loved our pup throughout his week and a half with them. Feiran is professional but relaxed, sent us at least one video a day of our bat playing with his new friends. We definitely recommend her for boarding services 🧡”
“Hannah is amazing! She’s very flexible and accommodating, and always keeps me updated on Nikko with pictures. She’s trustworthy and caring. My epileptic dog had a seizure while staying with her, but she handled it calmly—administering his intranasal midazolam and giving his scheduled medications on time. I would definitely book with Hannah again!”
“Sarah was a great companion for my furbaby while I was away! She was very communicative throughout the duration of the boarding service, and I felt comfortable and at ease with having my dog in her care.”

“Rae is an experienced and caring sitter, and we are very happy that Ginger could stay with her. And she had a good time. Rae sent us pictures of Ginger with messages on how she was doing. It is a relief that we can leave Ginger in such capable and affectionate hands when we need to. And I am sure Ginger enjoyed the massage that she got from Rae's daughter. Thank you!”

“China was amazing. This was the first time I’ve booked a sitter on rover and she did her best to alleviate all my worries. My pup is super anxious and she did her best to help her eat her food and gave her all the time she needed to potty and do her business. She also gave my pup her meds which isn’t always easy! As long as she is available I will always go to China she’s awesome.”

“Excellent first Rover experience! We were a little apprehensive to leave our girls, especially our older cat Blackberry with medical conditions, with someone through a website, but we were extremely pleased with the quality-of-care (and cute photos!) Michelle provided. Our directions were followed exactly and all three of our girls very happy and healthy when we returned. We would absolutely book with them again!”

About: I have two friendly cats and backyard chickens. I have had cats and dogs for most of my life. I go trail hiking at local forest preserves and state parks 2-4 times a week and would love to take your dog with me! I only have one dog guest at a time (unless they are from the same home) so I can give them lots of care and attention and provide you with regular updates and photos. You will know your pet is being well looked after. My goal is to make your pet feel like it is on a fun vacation while you are on a fun vacation. Nothing makes me happier than dogs I've cared before, coming back and pulling on their leash to come into my house on their next visit! I only work half-time so I have plenty of time for pets. I know how important your pet is to you and I'm very responsible. My dog guests are walked at least three times a day including a walk or hike of 30 minutes or longer. They are also able to use my fenced in backyard when the chickens are locked up for the night .
About: I’ve cat‑sat for neighbors and family friends throughout my life, and my passion for animals has carried into both my education and career.

“I could not have asked for a better sitter!! We were worried to leave our cat as he had been throwing up every time a friend would pop in on him and feed him and he seemed right at home with Melissa and didn't stress puke! Got pictures and text updates and felt so reassured leaving him with her while we were gone!! We can’t recommend her enough!”
“Kylie is amazing!! This is our second time booking with her and we will definitely use her again! She even went an extra visit cause we have some naughty cats which we were so so grateful for!”

For more than 10 years, I’ve helped friends and family care for their cats through home visits, feeding, playtime, cuddles, and overnight stays. At home, I share my life with two spoiled feline princes, Paco and Simón, who keep me well trained in all things cat-related. I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets, and I’ll care for your cat as if they were my own.
“Masha took excellent care of our kitten! Tuna is safe and sound, and got lots of great attention while we were away. We'll happily book with Masha again in the future!”
“Lorri stayed with our two cats overnight at our home for nine days. Per our request, Lorri sent us consistent photo updates. By the third night, the snaps showed us our boys personalities were in full effect. Images captured our feline friends feeling safe, secure, and happy, further convincing our initial impression of Lorri being a wonderful companion for our boys. She also took care of our home, leaving it clean and inviting when we returned. Our boys will definitely be happy to spend time with Lorri again. Since they are our bosses, we hope she is available during our next vacation.”

“Annadel and Jose were fantastic again! They accepted our request with short notice and gave our pup extra TLC. When we picked him up, he was in great spirits. They are fantastic caregivers!”
“She was very kind and very accommodating! I was having surgery that day. The time I was going to be let out of the hospital depended on things going as planned. She fine with my being later than I had planned. My brother, who wasn’t so sure about leaving “our” Charlie with someone he didn’t know, picked Charlie up for me and was very pleased with Aratrika and the way she treated our little girl!!! I will definitely be bringing Charlie to Aratrika whenever I need a sitter. Thank you so much taking such good care of my little one!”
“Feiran and her human and dog family welcomed Mario as one of their own. He was obviously comfortable (isn’t always the case), came home tired, and we received photos and videos to allay our nerves about being at a brand new place. We’d 100% book again. Thanks guys!!!”
“Caitlin is AMAZING!!!! She went above and beyond to make sure our shy 4 mo old pup felt welcome and loved in her home! She took him on multiple walks while he was there and even had him on a walk right before we arrived so he would have pottied when we got there for our drive home!!! She sent me so many pictures throughout the day of all the fun things he was doing and cuddles he was receiving! She was so thorough on pup’s report card letting us know how many times he went potty, when he ate, and how long the walks were! I could go on and on about how amazing she is! I would leave my pup with her in a heart beat and we will be going back!!!! Thank you Caitlin! ❤️❤️❤️”

About: I have 4 dogs that I’ve owned for 5 years now. I adopted two of them as puppies, so I potty trained them and taught them how to sit, lay down, walk off-leash, etc. I adopted my other two as adults, but I did train them how to walk off-leash as well. I care for them every single day, which includes feeding them on the same schedule every day, walking them, playing with them, bathing them when needed, taking them to the vet when needed, cleaning up after them to ensure a healthy and clean environment for them. I’m currently a college student who is out of school for the summer, so I am available 7 days a week at all hours of the day! In my client’s home, I will complete any task they ask of me in the way they ask to do it, as I completely understand that certain dogs need certain routines and strategies. I respect my client’s homes and the way they operate their home lives, and will do all I can to ensure their pets are happy and healthy.

I have experience walking larger dogs and managing older dog's needs when exercising as well as maintaining a calm environment for anxious and/or older pets.
About: My goal in life is to be your pets newest best friend. I have had experience with my very vocal and fat beagle that is 6. As well as a retired belgian malinois bomb dog that is 10. I can play fetch for hours, play games, or sit and cuddle a coach potato. I can be at your door anytime I do not have class at my flight school! I work part time at a coffee shop but my hours are very low because of school. I would really like pet sitting to be my job instead as I transition into this. I am attending a flight school to become a pilot. I am there just for a few hours a day through the week. But any chance I get I will pet sit! Since having experience with dogs and cats. I understand I am a visitor in THEIR home. I will make sure I do not intrude and make each visit a positive time. Walking, crating, potty breaks, a good cuddle and pet are all things I will do 100%. I also am at deep cleaning typical litter boxes, and can clean crates as well. If you have a fenced in yard I will play for hours. I love to walk dogs as long as they can be walked safely! Cats are pretty independent but I would love to come pay them attention!
About: Your best friend will have all of my attention. I’m an aspiring zoologist and have always loved animals. Currently living with 4 animals, 3 dogs and 1 Guinea pig. I help take care of my dads dogs while I take care of my Guinea pigs. I have experienced many things with dogs and cats, such as helping them through seizures and birth. I have a lot of care for animals and take pride in my work, so thank you for giving my profile a look. I’m currently open to house sitting for extended periods of time as I have only free time.

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was around 5 years old. I have experience giving dogs pills, being consistent with training processes, and with senior dog care. I have also taken care of cats. I’m able to take care of dogs and cats in the mornings and evenings during the week and all day on weekends and holidays. I am a homebody so once I get done with work during the day, I am not leaving and play with my animals. I have a fenced in yard with a very friendly dog and cat. If needed, I have a room where I can separate my cat from other dogs to allow non-cat friendly dogs to stay. This room has his food, water, bed, toys, and litter box, while also being one I spend a large amount of time in so he is not lonely. My dog is fed once in the morning and is allowed to eat when he wants to and he runs outside in the backyard when he feels like it. I do adjust how often he gets fed and if he is free feeding when other animals are present. In clients' homes, I follow feeding and care instructions.

“Andrea was great with my dogs and so attentive! She walked all three of them together, no small task, and they went a pretty long way. She told me they behaved, so either she got them all to listen well or she is very kind, either way a good sign. She was responsive to my texts and had great availability, I felt totally comfortable with her taking care of them. In fact, I booked her again for this weekend! I would definitely recommend Andrea!”

“Meghan took care of our dog while we are traveling over the holidays. When we had a family emergency come up and couldn't get back, she kindly offered to continue looking after him. We appreciate knowing that our dog is well taken care of in a difficult time. Will definitely book again.”
“First time ever having a sitter take care of of my cat and dog. She gave me updates and made sure she was properly cared for! i described the littler box needed to be cleaned once a day and it was so clean when i got it back i was so grateful! My dog had so much fun and she came back 10x softer! I booked multiple nights back to back and she kept going on with amazing care”
“Feiran and her family loved our pup throughout his week and a half with them. Feiran is professional but relaxed, sent us at least one video a day of our bat playing with his new friends. We definitely recommend her for boarding services 🧡”
“Hannah is amazing! She’s very flexible and accommodating, and always keeps me updated on Nikko with pictures. She’s trustworthy and caring. My epileptic dog had a seizure while staying with her, but she handled it calmly—administering his intranasal midazolam and giving his scheduled medications on time. I would definitely book with Hannah again!”
“Sarah was a great companion for my furbaby while I was away! She was very communicative throughout the duration of the boarding service, and I felt comfortable and at ease with having my dog in her care.”
“Rae is an experienced and caring sitter, and we are very happy that Ginger could stay with her. And she had a good time. Rae sent us pictures of Ginger with messages on how she was doing. It is a relief that we can leave Ginger in such capable and affectionate hands when we need to. And I am sure Ginger enjoyed the massage that she got from Rae's daughter. Thank you!”
“Rachel is a professional. She was great with Noodles and Noodles made herself right at home. Henry, her 17yo cat, was gracious enough to share his home for the weekend. Thank you Rachel.”
“We were very happy to board with Lainey. Communication was great, and we really felt like Summer was well cared for. She got a lot of attention and was able to play with friends, which we couldn’t be happier about. Thank you so much!”
“Always trust Lainey with my girl! She has taken care of her as she has grown up and has gotten to know my puppy so well! My dog gets to go on vacation when she boards with her!”
