She did a great job and our dog was happy and wagging and in great shape when we got back. We would recommend her and will book again when we need too. Thanks Jessica!”

They really made Hopper part of the family (even though Hopper kept stealing all of their dog’s toys and attention). We were very happy to be able to leave Hopper in a home where he was so well cared for.”

“Sonia provided us with pics and texts to allow us to keep up with how Misha was handling being left home when we needed to travel out of state. Misha who is housebroken and loves all human contact, didn't accept being left behind and presented Sonia with challenges that we never anticipated, taking out her unhappiness on her. Sonia rose to the challenge questioning us on how to handle her behaviors and ruling out any suspected health issues as causes. Misha was well cared for and I have no reservations recommending Sonia as a dog boarder.”

“Amanda & Anton are both so amazing to work with! They have a lot of great experience with various types of dogs and got my dog assimilated into their clan seamlessly. I was very impressed as my dog is often mopey whenever I leave and has had issues with some dogs and cats in the past. The got him to be part of the family in less than 24 hours and he has a great weekend away! My dog is also special needs and has a lot of food allergies. They did a great job handling all his various medications and feeding routine. Their attention to detail and care for his needs made me feel better to leave him for the weekend and I felt very confident that he was in good hands.”

He was proactive and reached out the night before to confirm arrival time and it was very responsive to all my requests and inquiries over text message. He was able to accommodate my daytime doggy daycare request His neighborhood is great and they even have a small dog area that’s fenced in for some off leash time. Basically, the best experience you could ask for when handing off your fur baby.”

“Robynn was absolutely incredible, and I truly cannot recommend her enough. From the very beginning, she went above and beyond to make sure both my dogs and I felt completely comfortable. She provided detailed updates throughout the stay, including messages, photos, and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear in every interaction how much she genuinely cares for the dogs she watches. She was also very thoughtful in checking in with me, asking questions about my dog’s eating habits and behaviors to make sure everything she was seeing was normal. That level of attention and communication meant so much to me. What really stood out was how she stepped in during a last-minute situation when my original boarding plans fell through. Despite the short notice, she made time for a quick meet and greet and handled it so professionally and thoughtfully. She introduced the dogs one at a time to ensure they were comfortable and compatible, which immediately reassured me that my dogs were in the best hands. You can truly tell that Robynn loves what she does and treats every dog like her own. I felt completely at ease leaving my dogs with her, which is priceless. I will absolutely be rebooking with her and highly, highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, attentive, and reliable sitter.”

About: I grew up taking care of my 2 collies and helping out with family members pets. I am experienced with managing large breeds and high energy dogs. I am currently on summer break from university, so I have a lot more free time. I am available on weekdays after 11 and weekends I have full availability. Once I return to school in late August, my schedule will change slightly. I’ll be available on weekdays after 1:30 PM and on Saturdays from 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM. If I happen to get out of class early, I may also be available before 1:30 on some days. Safety is my top priority. I treat every pet as my own, maintaining a calm, clean, and safe environment. Ahead of time, I ask about any triggers your pet may have and make sure we walk in comfortable environments.

About: As a firefighter, my entire career is built on safety, reliability, and handling high-stress situations with a calm, focused mind. I bring that exact same dedication to pet care. Whether your dog needs a high-energy workout, your cat prefers a quiet companion, or your pet requires strict medication schedules, you can rest easy knowing they are in highly capable hands. I have experience with our furry friends ranging from puppies with enough energy to power our houses to our senior dogs that need very specific special care instructions throughout the day. Whatever is needed to be provided throughout the day to your family, it will be delivered as if they were my own. Due to my firefighter shift schedule I typically have entire, unbroken days where I am 100% available to dedicate my time and energy to your furry family members. When not on shift there is nothing more I look forward to then spending time with animals. My profession requires a clean background, absolute integrity, and a high level of public trust. You can feel completely secure letting me into your home to care for your furry family members. I treat every member as if they were my own family, ensuring they get plenty of affection, exercise, and routine care no matter how meticulous. Being a professionally trained emergency responder any unexpected situation that arises you can have confidence will be handled in a calm and efficient manner.

About: I have been taking care of animals from a young age of 15. I grew up with a German shepherd which started my love for dogs. I use to volunteer at an animal shelter in Iowa when I was going to college. I would walk every single dog because it would break my heart to see them stuck in such a small space. I also rescued around 20 dogs, 50 cats, and one monkey when I was living overseas. I am very empathetic towards animals especially because they are such innocent beings. I also worked with different rescue groups overseas. I currently have 3 dogs I rescued from Peru South America. Their stories are pretty crazy but now they are living the dog dream. So I am very excited to work with animals! I am a stay at home mom looking to help owners with their pets. Having 3 dogs myself I know how necessary it is to have help! 1st I would like to come meet the pet first so we can create a trust. Then I would make sure they were comfortable in their home with plenty of food and water. I would just follow all the rules the owner has for me especially if there dog is on a specific diet. If it is okay with the owner also carry training treats with me for walks.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who’s been caring for dogs since I was around 10 years old. I grew up with dogs, helped train my family’s pups, and have been the go-to dog sitter for family and friends for years. I’m comfortable with walks, baths, feeding routines, playtime, and making sure your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, cuddly, or a little goofy, I’ll treat them like they’re my own :) I’m currently an online graduate student, which gives me a very flexible schedule. I’m available by request in the mornings, afternoons, and on weekends. Unfortunately, at this time I am not available for overnight care. Other than that, let me know how I can best help you! I always aim to make them feel as comfortable, safe, and loved as possible. I’m very adaptable and I understand that every pet has their own routine, personality, and needs. Before any booking, I like to ask a few questions about your pet’s habits, personality, and preferences so I can provide the best care tailored specifically to them. I follow feeding, walking, and medication routines closely and make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship. If I’m in your home, I also respect your space and keep things clean and consistent for your pet so they feel secure in their familiar environment.

“Maria has been a LIFE SAVER for me. I work full time in Chicago and I needed someone who was able to take my dog M-F but I didn't want to bring my dog to an impersonal day care. That's when I found Maria. I really love that Oliver (my dog) is safe in Maria's home and also able to go to the dog park everyday. When I pick him up he is a very happy and tired dog! I could not have asked for a better situation and we consider Maria part of the family. She treats my dog as if he was her own and for that I am so thankful.”

About: I grew up on a farm in Brazil, surrounded by animals and nature, and that’s where my love for dogs truly began. From a young age, I was always caring for and spending time with them, learning how to understand their needs and personalities. Today, I have two Basset Hounds of my own, and they are a big part of my life. Living with them has given me even more hands-on experience with different behaviors, routines, and the importance of patience and affection. Now that I live here in the U.S., I’m excited to offer my care and love for dogs through Rover. I treat every dog as if they were my own—making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I’m home every day with my baby and my two Basset Hounds, so I’m always present and able to give dogs plenty of attention and care. Most days, we go for walks together, and I make sure they have a consistent routine with feeding, playtime, and lots of affection. In my home, I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment. I have a fenced garden with a secure gate (40” H × 27” panels), which is great for small and medium dogs to enjoy supervised outdoor time. I don’t use crates, as I prefer pets to feel comfortable and free in a home setting. I also have two very friendly Basset Hounds who are used to being around other dogs, which helps visiting pets feel more relaxed and social. I keep a consistent routine with feeding, walks, playtime, and lots of attention to make sure every dog feels safe and happy.

About: I have lived with large dogs my entire life and have been put in charge of caring for them overnight and long periods of time for about 10 years. I have experience training dogs and have exceptional patience in every aspect of pet care. I live with three large dogs currently- which includes feeding (early morning and mid evening,) walks, and various other care needs - so I am more than capable of caring for animals at whatever time needed. I am good with slow introductions for anxious animals, and proficient with acclimating and calming down hyper animals. I have excellent skill in reading animals’ body language and curating according responses.

About: As a firefighter, my entire career is built on safety, reliability, and handling high-stress situations with a calm, focused mind. I bring that exact same dedication to pet care. Whether your dog needs a high-energy workout, your cat prefers a quiet companion, or your pet requires strict medication schedules, you can rest easy knowing they are in highly capable hands. I have experience with our furry friends ranging from puppies with enough energy to power our houses to our senior dogs that need very specific special care instructions throughout the day. Whatever is needed to be provided throughout the day to your family, it will be delivered as if they were my own. Due to my firefighter shift schedule I typically have entire, unbroken days where I am 100% available to dedicate my time and energy to your furry family members. When not on shift there is nothing more I look forward to then spending time with animals. My profession requires a clean background, absolute integrity, and a high level of public trust. You can feel completely secure letting me into your home to care for your furry family members. I treat every member as if they were my own family, ensuring they get plenty of affection, exercise, and routine care no matter how meticulous. Being a professionally trained emergency responder any unexpected situation that arises you can have confidence will be handled in a calm and efficient manner.

About: I only had family cats growing up, but when my 12-year-old daughter had a big loss in her life, I gave her a Yorkie puppy. Of course, I knew nothing but how to love that puppy, so I had to learn quickly. Yes, I learned about crating...and also not crating. I've learned that dog training is mostly about "training" the owner. And I've learned how you can be firm and serious...but not mean. Like...being a parent. I've watched enough dogs that when they stay or visit, my home's been named deemed a doggie camp. I've had senior dogs on medication or needing more sedate care, and crazy puppies who get the right things to chew. And for walks, we have a great neighborhood with sidewalks. While this is all "puppy" news, yes, I definitely know how to care for cats too. I believe cats need play and music or active noise usually as well - except at bed time. No animal wants to feel alone...and they never do with me. I usually work from home and manage my schedule, so periodic check-ins during the work days isn't difficult. I don't often travel, so evenings, weekends and home care is relatively simple within my schedule. Pets in my client's homes get a regular schedule for meals, wake time, and bed time. They get a balance of play time, brushing,...and snuggles. For dogs, they get walks and play - inside and out. When an owner is not around, animals are a little sadder, so I work to help minimize that sadness...and given them comfort and company.

I pretty much work from home and have a 4 year old Golden Retreiver named Jax so our routine is already made for a dog. I have a fenced in back yard. Your dog will have a playmate in Jax. I enjoy going out and playing fetch with Jax although he's not much of a fetch guy. He enjoys me faking like I'm going to chase him and then he gets the zoomies and runs around the yard like a crazy boy.

“Linda and George are very kind and easy to communicate with! I could truly relax knowing Andor was in good hands. Andor was very tired from all the attention!!”

“Sonia provided us with pics and texts to allow us to keep up with how Misha was handling being left home when we needed to travel out of state. Misha who is housebroken and loves all human contact, didn't accept being left behind and presented Sonia with challenges that we never anticipated, taking out her unhappiness on her. Sonia rose to the challenge questioning us on how to handle her behaviors and ruling out any suspected health issues as causes. Misha was well cared for and I have no reservations recommending Sonia as a dog boarder.”

“Jackie and her family took such wonderful care of our two pups, who are always so anxious to be away from home. They came back to us happy, healthy, and maybe just a little disappointed that they had to leave their new friends. Highly recommend Jackie!”

“Penny looked after Ginger as a trial night before we go on a longer trip this summer. I could tell Ginger had a blast and Penny is very caring with the dogs. I’m not concerned with leaving my pup with Penny when I have to be gone this summer. Thank you Penny and Ginger and I will see you again soon!”

“Amanda & Anton are both so amazing to work with! They have a lot of great experience with various types of dogs and got my dog assimilated into their clan seamlessly. I was very impressed as my dog is often mopey whenever I leave and has had issues with some dogs and cats in the past. The got him to be part of the family in less than 24 hours and he has a great weekend away! My dog is also special needs and has a lot of food allergies. They did a great job handling all his various medications and feeding routine. Their attention to detail and care for his needs made me feel better to leave him for the weekend and I felt very confident that he was in good hands.”

“Kira is an amazing dog sitter. Her dogs were so good with my energy white shepherd. She is so kind and was attentive to our dog’s needs. She constantly sent pictures and messaged us with updates. Kira made sure our Bolt was comfy and that all his needs were met. When we picked up Bolt he was ready and all his belongings were packed and cleaned. Kira is a natural at this! I definitely recommend her 10000%!! No doubt… we will rebook with her when we go on our next family trip if available. I can’t say enough how great she was. She made sure we felt at ease while being away for 8 days. Thank you Kira for taking such great care of Bolt!! :)”

“Our lively viszla pup had a great time with Elise. She was very responsive and caring in the lead up to his stay, and we even had a meet and greet beforehand to ensure we could pass on all instructions… He was well exercised and well loved during the eight days or so that we were gone. We received lots of photos, and he came back with some excellent manners.”
