Highly-rated overnight sitters - Woodstock
“Alicia was the best! I knew from our meet and greet that she was going to be great with Tig and of course she was. I had no worries while we were out of town as she sent updates and photos of our Tig often. I can tell he is going to miss his new hangout and all their love & cuddles. I will absolutely book again if I need to in the future.”
“June was a fantastic sitter for our two pups while we were away! She was so communicative and sent pictures a few times every day so we could see how happy they were. One of our dogs is deathly afraid of thunderstorms and she comforted him throughout the night. She also took them on several walks, which they absolutely love and brought our pups back home when our flight was delayed and the timing became an issue. I 100% recommend June -she treated our dogs like her own!”
“She was great with Capri! Got pictures every day and updates on how she was. Definitely recommend her. She made my first experience with boarding my dog very easy and a breeze.”
“Jessica was absolutely amazing! This was my first time going through Rover and I am so happy we found her. She babysat biscuit for 2 nights for us and was very friendly, sent photos throughout the day and bonus she also had a mini doodle Gracie that got along great with our Biscuit. Overall very happy with her services! Would 100% book with her again in the future.”
“I was thinking Casper may not want to come home, as it looked like he was having a good time and being spoiled. He was allowed on their sofa and on the bed (things he doesn't get to do at home, at least not while I'm in the room). Great experience and Emily has 2 boys that also gave Casper a lot of attention. I will definitely rebook again as needed.”
“Erika did a fantastic job caring for our dogs. Since this was our first vacation in several years, I was nervous about leaving them for an extended period. Lincoln, our senior, requires multiple medications and supplements, and Bella struggles with separation anxiety. Erika and Ryan were so reassuring during the meet-and-greet that I felt at ease immediately; seeing Bella flip over for belly rubs was the best sign! While we were away, we received photo and video updates twice a day. I loved her comments and how she picked up on our dogs personalities 😊 It was clear the dogs were happy, enjoyed their numerous walks, and was never left alone. I’m so grateful to have found Erika and Ryan —they truly understood our dogs' needs and gave them so much love!”
“Carolyn had our pup in her home for just over a week while my family traveled. She treated her as her own with love. I received daily updates and pictures. It made our trip that much more enjoyable knowing our pup was in great hands. I highly recommend Carolyn and will definitely book with her again!”
“Great communication from Ashley! I received pictures and videos and continual love from afar about my sweet boy. Huge yard and a great home for any doggie. Excited to have Bowie hosted there again, highly recommended! Great experience!”
“Meredith was so great at keeping me informed and sending pictures of my pup while we were away on our trip. She seems to really know a lot about dogs and I love the fact that she has veterinary tech experience and dog training certification! My pup was very happy there and I will certainly use Meredith again!”
“She's simply the best! Reliable, caring, and good at keeping in touch. Sending me photos daily and brief updates on what Sugar is doing. Thank you, Beth! You made taking this vacation a little easier knowing Sugar was in good hands.”
“Finn had the besttttt time!! Kim took amazing care of our boy and kept us sooooo updated! I could just tell he had the most amazing time on their walks!! Thank youu so much again!!”
“Dorothy is amazing and we couldn’t recommend her enough. She took the time to get to know my pup and her needs, and sent many updates while we were away. We are happy to have found someone we trust so much!”
“I used Carla for the first time and I will definitely use her again. My dog is extremely active and gets bored easily (can't trust him alone in the house). Carla sent me videos and pictures of him playing with her golden and he had a great time and was active all day. We just came home and he is super tired just relaxing by my feet. Thank you for watching him Carla!”
“Stella was attentive and loving to our little old little lady. It was Lola’s first time with a sitter other than family in her own home in her whole life. To say we were nervous for Lola and Stella’s family would be an understatement. We feel thoroughly blessed to have had Lola’s first sleepover at Stella’s and hope to book with her again soon!”
“Jacob was great! He took good care of Muffin, was always responsive and available, and was very flexible with the pick up and drop off times. Thank you for watching Muffin while we were on vacation!”
“Ashley was great! She responded to my request almost immediately, was able to take care of my puppy upon very short notice, and she sent me cute pictures and videos throughout his short stay. I will definitely request Ashley again if we need a sitter.”

About: Hi! My name is Julie, and animals have always been a huge part of my life. I previously worked as an Adoption Manager at Anderson Animal Shelter, where I gained hands-on experience working with dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, temperaments, and backgrounds. Through my work, I developed a strong understanding of animal behavior, daily care routines, and how to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved.

I also have experience caring for cats and understand the importance of respecting their unique routines and comfort levels. My goal is always to make pets feel happy, secure, and cared for while giving owners peace of mind knowing their animals are in experienced and loving hands. I treat every pet like family and would love the opportunity to care for yours!
About: I have a year of experience fostering a variety of animals, including kittens, adult cats, puppies, and senior dogs. My friends and family have also relied on me to walk, feed, and provide companionship for their pets. Additionally, I have experience in training puppies and providing specialized care for older dogs, which sets me apart from other sitters. I'm currently in college taking classes online, so I'm at home with some free time on my hands. It's nice to have the flexibility to manage my schedule that way In my home, I have a fenced-in yard. For cats, I can provide plenty of toys and the companionship of myself and my six cats to keep them entertained.
“This was our first time using Rover and Heather went above and beyond our expectations! We looked forward to her updates nightly and absolutely loved the pictures. We were able to enjoy our vacation more fully knowing our little fur baby was in wonderful hands. We would you request Heather again in a heartbeat!”
“Such a good sitter. She even took my dog to run around multiple times which is something I can’t do. Cielo was very knowledgeable about Piccolos breed and did so good with him. I definitely will be booking again!”
“Nicole was hands down awesome! Our 2 boys loved seeing the photos she would send at each drop-in. One of our dogs was a little slow to warm up at first, but I liked that she didn’t let it bother her. Before we knew it, they were best buds! HIGH RECOMMEND HER!!”
“This was the first time I used Rover and was quite a nervous mother of my cat. I met with Elly and she was very professional and during the meet and greet she took notes the whole time. Was very impressed the attention to detail and the comfort she provided. I knew she was going to take care of my kitten as I would. I booked for that weekend and then a mandatory work event came up. But instead of cancelling she offered her fiancé as an option. I couldn't ask for more from an individual. Everything was how I left it and my kitten was well cared for. If you are ever in need of care Elly is your gal!!! Lisa”
“Taylor was absolutely fantastic! I am very nervous leaving my big German shepherd with anyone (I’m a bit of a helicopter parent) but Taylor got on with him very well! She dropped in on him during a very long day at work for me, gave him a bit of attention and a potty break, and all went smoothly! She communicated quickly when she was with him and even brought in my heavy chewy box of dog food that was delivered! I can’t say how happy I am to have someone that seems to like my big boy and will be able to take care of him when I need. Taylor is awesome!!”
“Jenna was great watching over my cat Luna! When I met her in person I immediately felt comfortable in entrusting her to the care of my cat while I was out of town. She played with Luna and Luna’s favorite cat toys, sent me pictures of my cat, and gave daily updates on how Luna was doing. I felt relieved knowing Luna was being well taken care of while I was gone. I would absolutely book with Jenna again if I needed another cat sitter in the future!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Woodstock
“Can’t thank Christina enough for coming through on such short notice! Blair had the best time and was the happiest pup with her. So grateful to have someone I can trust with my baby, knowing she’s in great hands and having a fun day.”
“Emily treats your fur babies like her own! My girls absolutely love spending the day at doggie daycare with her and her sweet pup, Gertie. I get the cutest playtime videos throughout the day, which gives me total peace of mind knowing they're safe, loved, and having an absolute blast while I'm away.”
“Danielle is AWESOME!! Roxy had a great time with her and her dogs and kids are amazing! She sent me photos during the day and let me know how Roxy was doing. She takes her for nice walks and gets plenty of exercise and fun. I'm super happy with the care Roxy gets at her house. Thanks!”
About: I’ve raised/trained my rescue pup Bear on my own from when he was 13 weeks old and now he is 6. And I’ve been around animals my whole life. I recently did I private group animal training session with Cesar Millan at his Dog Psychology Center. I also have volunteered at Wild Bird Rehab many times. Both Bear and I love having more pet company in the home. I’ve always had a deep love for animals - I’m so excited to meet your pet(s) and get to know their fun personalities and quirks! 💙 I work full-time from home. Meaning I will always be home with and monitoring your pet(s) during my work day. I take my dog on walks every morning and evening at Longview or Queeny. I have a very clean, safe, and peaceful apartment with a nice big deck - that my dog loves to sunbathe or people-watch on throughout the day. Unfortunately, I do not have a fenced in yard but there is a small fenced in dog park in my neighborhood that is rarely used by other dogs. I take my high-energy dog on two long walks a day (morning and night) with potty breaks around the neighborhood in between, so lots of walks are already a part of our daily routine. My dog is very gentle and submissive. Your fur baby will feel right at home with us!
“Jill is awesome! So down to earth and just the sweetest lady you’ll meet! Was very accommodating last minute for me so I could make it to my plans and my dogs felt right at home at her house! Would recommend her to anyone!!”

About: I've often thought about how best to care for my pets when I go out of town. I would want them to be with someone who is loving and makes them feel as if they were with their owner.

“Stacy has been watching Trixie about 2 to 3 times a week since I adopted Trixie at 4 months old over a year ago. She's been a godsend allowing me to work downtown and have care for Trixie. She goes above and beyond, and I'm pretty sure Trixie thinks she's her mom :) Thanks for everything Stacy!”

“Christina walked my 3 dogs daily while I was away. My dogs were very hesitant to walk at first and she was calm, patient and gentle with them to gain their trust. Her communication skills were excellent and she gave me frequent updates. I would hire her again to take care of my dogs.”
“I cannot say enough except for how lucky I am to have Emily help walk my babies while I am at work. She does great with large dogs as well as my little 16 year old. Do not try to steal her away from us but if you are lucky enough to have her fit into your schedule, I would highly recommend her.”

About: I believe that every pet deserves individualized care and attention. What sets me apart is my genuine love and respect for animals, which I demonstrate by providing them with a nurturing, safe, and family-like environment. Your pet will never feel like they’re just another animal in a kennel – they’ll feel right at home, like part of the family. I can help puppies with basic commands and socialization, as well as offering gentle care to senior pets who require extra patience and special attention. A big part of my service is the daily walks. I understand how important it is for pets to get their daily exercise and mental stimulation. I make sure to provide enriching walks, whether it’s a calm stroll for a senior pet or a longer, more adventurous walk for an active dog. I adjust the walks according to the pet’s needs, and I always ensure they’re enjoyable, safe, and full of exploration. For added peace of mind, I share GPS-tracked walk updates, so you can follow along on your pet's experience.

My routine includes regular walks and playtime, ensuring your pet stays active and happy.

Whether it's during the day, late evenings, or weekends, I’m here to provide care whenever it’s needed. Feel free to reach out at any time, and I’ll gladly arrange a time that works for you and your pet! When caring for pets in their own homes or taking them for walks, my primary focus is always on safety, trust, and creating a comfortable environment. In your home: I ensure the home is secure and free of hazards, paying close attention to areas where the pet may be most comfortable. I follow any special instructions from the pet owner regarding their pet’s habits, food, and preferences to maintain a consistent and safe environment. Whether I’m watching them at home or during a walk, I treat them with the same care as I would my own pets, ensuring they are always safe, comfortable, and happy. During walks: I prioritize safety by ensuring your dog is always under control, whether in urban or outdoor settings. I also ensure that pets are properly hydrated and not overexerted during their walks, adjusting the route and pace based on the pet’s age, size, and energy level. Trust is built by maintaining clear communication with the pet owner, regularly sending updates, photos, and videos to keep them informed about their pet's well-being and activities. This ensures the owners can trust that their pets are receiving the best care while they’re away.

“Alicia was the best! I knew from our meet and greet that she was going to be great with Tig and of course she was. I had no worries while we were out of town as she sent updates and photos of our Tig often. I can tell he is going to miss his new hangout and all their love & cuddles. I will absolutely book again if I need to in the future.”
“She was great with Capri! Got pictures every day and updates on how she was. Definitely recommend her. She made my first experience with boarding my dog very easy and a breeze.”
“I was thinking Casper may not want to come home, as it looked like he was having a good time and being spoiled. He was allowed on their sofa and on the bed (things he doesn't get to do at home, at least not while I'm in the room). Great experience and Emily has 2 boys that also gave Casper a lot of attention. I will definitely rebook again as needed.”
“Erika did a fantastic job caring for our dogs. Since this was our first vacation in several years, I was nervous about leaving them for an extended period. Lincoln, our senior, requires multiple medications and supplements, and Bella struggles with separation anxiety. Erika and Ryan were so reassuring during the meet-and-greet that I felt at ease immediately; seeing Bella flip over for belly rubs was the best sign! While we were away, we received photo and video updates twice a day. I loved her comments and how she picked up on our dogs personalities 😊 It was clear the dogs were happy, enjoyed their numerous walks, and was never left alone. I’m so grateful to have found Erika and Ryan —they truly understood our dogs' needs and gave them so much love!”
“Carolyn had our pup in her home for just over a week while my family traveled. She treated her as her own with love. I received daily updates and pictures. It made our trip that much more enjoyable knowing our pup was in great hands. I highly recommend Carolyn and will definitely book with her again!”
“Great communication from Ashley! I received pictures and videos and continual love from afar about my sweet boy. Huge yard and a great home for any doggie. Excited to have Bowie hosted there again, highly recommended! Great experience!”
“Meredith was so great at keeping me informed and sending pictures of my pup while we were away on our trip. She seems to really know a lot about dogs and I love the fact that she has veterinary tech experience and dog training certification! My pup was very happy there and I will certainly use Meredith again!”
“She's simply the best! Reliable, caring, and good at keeping in touch. Sending me photos daily and brief updates on what Sugar is doing. Thank you, Beth! You made taking this vacation a little easier knowing Sugar was in good hands.”
“Dorothy is amazing and we couldn’t recommend her enough. She took the time to get to know my pup and her needs, and sent many updates while we were away. We are happy to have found someone we trust so much!”
“I used Carla for the first time and I will definitely use her again. My dog is extremely active and gets bored easily (can't trust him alone in the house). Carla sent me videos and pictures of him playing with her golden and he had a great time and was active all day. We just came home and he is super tired just relaxing by my feet. Thank you for watching him Carla!”
“Stella was attentive and loving to our little old little lady. It was Lola’s first time with a sitter other than family in her own home in her whole life. To say we were nervous for Lola and Stella’s family would be an understatement. We feel thoroughly blessed to have had Lola’s first sleepover at Stella’s and hope to book with her again soon!”
“Ashley was great! She responded to my request almost immediately, was able to take care of my puppy upon very short notice, and she sent me cute pictures and videos throughout his short stay. I will definitely request Ashley again if we need a sitter.”
“Dickson is a very caring dog sitter. He did everything he could to make my bulldog feel comfortable and have fun. He gives video and picture updates of their adventures. I would absolutely have him watch my dog again!”
“Elaina and Joseph V. were absolutely amazing with my dog during his stay from July 1 through July 5. They kept me updated with photos and messages, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. It was clear they genuinely cared for him and treated him like part of their own family. When I picked him up, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I really appreciated their professionalism, kindness, and attention to detail throughout the entire boarding experience. I would absolutely trust them to watch my dog again and highly recommend Elaina and Joseph V. to anyone looking for reliable, caring, and attentive pet sitters.”
“Rachel was very communicative while we were away on vacation. She sent us pictures of our furry friend and updates. She had the pool out for the dogs and I felt like she was being well taken care of and it eased my mind while away. My dog came home exhausted! Which tells me she had a lot of play time. Happy with our experience”
“Megan was very welcoming and accommodated some last-minute travel plans and made Copper feel right at home. He also got along well with her three pups. He enjoyed having a fenced in backyard where he could run around and play. Thank you!”
“Flynn loved his stay at Angela's! He had lots of attention and had fun playing with her dogs. We received plenty of pictures and updates and knew he was in good hands while we were away. She is very personable and clearly loves animals!”
“Once again, Derek and his family were an incredible Rover family for Bear. They had him for 10 days, which is a long time, but I got pictures from Derek almost every day and he let me know that Bear was doing great. It made our long vacation even better knowing that he was being well cared for. I can’t thank Derek and his family enough for being Bear’s home away from home.”
