“Sonja treated our dog so well I'm surprised he wanted to come home. She sent pictures while we were away of their trip to a park, snuggles, playing, chewing on a bone, and looking very happy. We are happy to have such a high-quality dog sitter!”

“This was the sweetest family, with a beautiful home. My girl had so much fun. She was not ready to come back to our little apartment. Thank you again for taking my puppy last minute.”

“Walter and Maddie were great! They were very warm and welcoming to our old lady, and their two dogs are very sweet. They provided daily updates and good communication. Our dog had some overnight accidents and they were very understanding and worked with us via messaging to address her needs. We were very comfortable and confident that our pup was in good hands.”


“We couldn't have asked for anyone better than Dave & Cindy for our boy, Duke. They both are such hospitalable, warm individuals and I knew the moment I met them, at our meet and greet, that Duke would be in caring hands! I trusted them whole-heartedly, and will continue to use them should my husband and I need to be away. Thank you Dave and Cindy!! ❤”

“Buddy had a fantastic time with Judith! And I had a great trip knowing that Buddy was being cared for by such a wonderful person as Judith. She sent lots of photos and updates during his 10 day stay. I never had to wonder how it was going. I would highly recommend Judith to watch any dog!”

“This lovely young couple treated my Sadie as if she were their own. While I was away on my trip,I was contacted every day with a picture and a report. Sadie is 12 years old and it’s hard to leave her but I would leave her with this couple again! Thank you, Morgan and Eric appreciate it!”

“Paula is the absolute best! My 2 boys loved her backyard and barely recognized me when I came to get them. Exactly what I was looking for & so helpful. Sent me pics & always responded super fast. 5 stars all around!”

“In addition to giving excellent care to our dog, Stephanie did a great job administering our dog’s medicines and keeping him on his restricted diet. We would definitely recommend Stephanie.”

“Chloe is a fantastic dog sitter. Whenever I leave my sensitive basset with her, he returns home calm and happy. I can tell that he has been well loved and cared for. I was so relieved to find a sitter who is patient and understanding of my sweet puppy. I would highly recommend Chloe to anyone. Thank you, Chloe!”


“My Molly's stay with Lucy was fabulous. Great communication, super easy drop off/pick up, and wonderful pictures. Molly came home tired and happy, I couldn't ask for more. I highly recommend Lucy and will definitely book again.”

“Sonja was amazing!! She did a great job taking care of my cat. She was so easy to communicate with and made the whole experience so easy. I would highly recommend her!!”

“Rachel has been wonderful. We have felt so much confidence and trust with her coming and going from our home. She has given great healthcare and love to our elderly kitty. We feel so lucky to have found her and hope to be able to use her again in the future. Her kind spirit is very comforting. We highly recommend her. I feel like we have a new friend. ?”

About: I have owned and fostered dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. I have experience with puppies, small, medium and large dogs. I have a great time interacting with and entertaining fur babies! I am currently on summer break from school, so most weeks my schedule is pretty open for the summer. I am typically available weekend and week days. I have experience walking small, medium, and large dogs. I have handled high and low energy dogs and cats. I walk my own dogs daily and have cared for high energy pups in the neighborhood.

“Melanie was incredible! She took fantastic care of my three cats while I was away on vacation. She sent detailed updates and several pictures as well as responded quickly to my messages. I highly recommend -my fur babies adored her and I will absolutely rebook with Melanie!”

“Eleanor did a wonderful job of taking care of our old cat, Rubble. She communicated daily and Rubble was well cared for. She brought in our mail and our packages, and followed our written requests completely. I hope that she will be available again next time we go out of town.”


“Tara went above and beyond to take care of my kitten! Even in the face of emergencies on her part, she makes sure no matter what that your fur baby is looked after!! She was also available when I needed her or had questions! My kitten will definitely be going back when she needs to be looked after!”


About: I have owned 2 cats (tabby and tortico) for 3 years, getting both as kittens. Growing up, my neighbor took in stray cats, so I learned from her how to care for the young and lost, and how to properly love something that is often misunderstood!

“Brooke was great! She watched our 2 cats, one that needed medication. She was super communicative and there were zero issues. She took the time to play with our energetic young cat!”

“Kelly looked after our two kitties again and did a great job! She was very communicative, spent a lot of time playing with them to make them feel comfortable, and sent a lot of really good pictures to keep us updated. Would definitely recommend.”


“Evelyn A. is a fantastic cat sitter. Very attentive to my 2 cats. She took daily pictures and let me know how much they ate. (One is recovering from surgery and needed her food intake monitored.) If she felt anything was off she let me know right away and stayed until I got back to her. I never worried about my Girls.”


“Great job! Thanks for taking such good care of my girls. You must be a “cat whisperer” to have gotten them both out to visit with you so quickly! You made my time away bearable for them and worry free for me. I would definitely book your services again.”

“Asa was easy-going and kind during our meet & greet. They were respectful of our home and arrived promptly to the requested drop-in visit times. I don't think my dogs realized I was gone ;) Thanks, Asa!”

“Judith was amazing and communicated well throughout the entire process. We felt our dog was in great hands with her and know he was super spoiled. She went above and beyond and sent us daily photo and text updates. We will definitely be booking with Judith again in the future! Highly recommend.”

About: So I just love dogs. I have had dogs my whole life and will never not have one. I work from home and am very physically active so my lifestyle works well with dogs as I am around to simply hang out with the dogs or go on long walks if needed! Luckily I work from home as an attorney and am able to provide many walks and attention throughout the day. I also live in an area with a lake and multiple dog parks. I am extremely attentive with any dogs that I take care of. I will provide sitting with care and attention and make sure your dog is safe and taken care of.

“Sarah was amazing with my baby Soup! She is super friendly and very responsive. She took care of Soup like her own and sent lots of pictures and updates, which I really appreciated. I felt completely at ease the whole time. Highly recommend her! 😊”

“Nicole and Tim were so welcoming and so kind. It was Benny’s first time spending time away besides groomers and he had so much fun! The updates throughout the day really made us be at ease. We are so happy with his stay and will come back to Tim and Nicole when we are in town. 😊”


“Viki very kindly hosted our 1-year-old golden for a day of daycare after our usual daycare person had to leave town urgently. We were so happy to get all the updates and photos of all the fun that Ellie was having at Viki’s place. She was all worn out and happy after a long day of running around and play. I am so glad that we were able to find Viki at the last minute and it turned out to be such a great choice! Can’t thank Viki enough for taking such good care of Ellie!”

“My dog Taku and I relocated here from Michigan recently. We have no family or friends here in Illinois. I was so stressed and anxious on what I will do with Taku while I’m at work or a long day or long weekend. Taku has separation anxiety where if he’s left alone, he will cry and bark the whole entire time. Then I found Jeena on Rover! She was so accommodating! She allowed Taku and I to come meet her and her cats to see if they all got along, before we booked her for a half day of day care. Taku did really well at her place! He felt comfortable and when I went to pick him up, he was happy and well taken care of. It seemed like he really loved her already and he gave her kisses goodbye! We will definitely be using Jeena again!! We feel so lucky to have found her!!!! Thanks Jeena and Rover!”


“Nana was a phenomenal sitter! Her dog got along so well with mine and I could tell she was getting lots of attention and playtime because she’d come home and pass out immediately. And I loved the pictures! Would absolutely book with her again.”


“Ruthie was great with my deaf little puppy. He is afraid of other dogs but she was sweet and patient and he accepted the others. Her dog Ginger is the sweetest little cuties! Will book again!”

“Ashley took great care of our family member. He was recently rescued and she was very accommodating and knowledgable about his timid personality. She was flexible with our last minute scheduling needs because we didn't even think that we were going to need doggy daycare while on vacation. I definitely recommend her!”


“Just passing through and needed to leave Tobi somewhere safe for part of the day. Francie was great, exceeded expectations. Tobi loved playing with the other dt. This was our first Rover experience, but we'll be doing it again as we continue our travels.”

“Alvin is so loved and cared for at Beth’s house. He gets lots of exercise and just loves his buddies there. He knows every morning that it’s time to go see his friends! Thanks for loving our guy!”

About: I have always loved dogs. My husband and I adopted a beagle 5 years ago and we have just loved every minute of it. We go on daily walks, have plenty of toys and dog puzzles. I currently work from home and will have plenty of time to monitor and play with your dogs. My Beagle Tommy is also dog friendly. We go outside frequently and supervise outside playtime. I have a friendly beagle who loves to play hard and nap hard too. We allow dogs on the furniture and work from home. We do not crate dogs even when leaving the home.
“Angel was so great to work with! She was very communicative and she and her family took great care of our pup. She came home exhausted from a long day of play. Angel made sure to send plenty of pictures throughout the day as well! Thank you, Angel for the great care and peace of mind! ❤️”

“I have a young puppy (3 months old) and she had a great time. She was well taken care of and will definitely be coming back! I was provided updates and pictures throughout the day. Highly recommend.”

“I am very pleased Truess met us at the door greeted us with a well warm welcome we chatted for a minute she sent me pictures throughout the day telling me how Sasha was doing. It was a wonderful experience. We will definitely see her again soon. Thank you so much for caring for our baby.”

When I am home from college during spring break, summer, and winter break, my schedule is moderately flexible. I am able to fit in pet care whenever and have plenty of time to play with and take care of my cats and dogs every day. When I am at your home I will make sure it is a safe environment for the animals and that there is nothing they can be harmed by. I love going on walks at any time of the day as well as playing with the dogs or cats with toys, we can even work on some simple training together!

“Violet loves Asa! We appreciate how Asa engages Violet, is easy to communicate with, and is punctual and dependable. I no longer worry about needing to leave for business trips, which is such a relief.”

“We love Frances she is amazing she's always on time and Buddy can hardly wait until she gets to our house. I had to have shoulder surgery and couldn't walk Buddy so Rover was a perfect option for us. Thank you Frances for making Buddy's day so exciting he's so much more happier because of you.”

About: I have cared for animals my whole life. I grew up on a small farm taking care of pigs, geese, chickens, steers, goats, cats dogs birds, turtles, hermit crabs, you name it! My schedule is quite flexible, and I’m happy to work around both of our schedules to accommodate any care needs. Have a special request? Just ask! I will always treat others’ pets as if they were my own. I am highly trustworthy and have owned and operated three different businesses in my young life, one of which I still run. Prior to that, I worked in healthcare. I take great pride in being dependable and trustworthy in all my endeavors.
About: I have always had animals around me my whole life. My wife and I currently have two sweet cats and we see her families dog very often. I grew up walking my cousins dogs and am good with most any kind of animal! I am currently a full time student so I have lots of time and a flexible schedule for taking care of pets. I have two cats of my own and will be adding a puppy into the mix soon! I will treat your fur baby as if it were my own and not only take care of them while you are away but make sure to spend some good time making sure they are played with and loved.
About: I have worked with dogs for several years in various settings. I have previous experience working in a veterinarian office, dog day care, dog walking/pet sitting, and have taken care of dogs in advanced training to become service dogs. Animals hold a very special place in my heart and I enjoy working with them and providing companionship and the highest quality of care! I work a non-traditional part-time job with varying hours throughout the week. I can care for your pets before and after my scheduled work times. I will do whatever the client would like rather that is playing with their dog(s) in their yard outside or taking your dog(s) for a walk.
About: Hi, I’m Julia! With 6+ years of pet care experience—including two years at a dog daycare and training my own dog from puppyhood—I’m comfortable caring for puppies, seniors, anxious dogs, and any dog in between. I’m certified in both Pet CPR and Pet First Aid, and I will always tailor my care to your dog’s personality and routine. Whether that means stopping to smell every tree on a walk, respecting their space, or playing fetch until they’re happily worn out, your dog’s comfort comes first. Photo updates (and pup cups) are always included! I work part-time (often in the evenings) and have a flexible schedule with several days off per week, giving me plenty of time for walks, drop-in visits, and daytime care! My schedule allows me to be consistent and reliable for your pup. I’m currently fully booked for overnight stays and boarding through the rest of the summer, but I’m happy to help with daytime services in the meantime. I step into your dog’s routine so they feel comfortable and secure when I’m around. I provide calm, in-home care that matches their energy. We’ll play if they’re feeling active, take it slow when they’re not—I will always follow their comfort level! During overnight stays, I stick closely to your pup’s routine and make sure they’re comfortable throughout my visit. I always clean and tidy before leaving, so you come home to both a well cared-for space and dog.
About: I’ve had pets as long I can remember, and I believe they are valuable members of the family. I love to provide and care for animals and appreciate the companionship and care they can provide in return. I’m currently studying in my senior year for my bachelors degree in Music. I am in school for a couple hours a day, but am open mornings, and afternoons/overnights accommodating my job schedule. I make sure to take security seriously so pets do not take unsupervised trips out! I also make sure to follow their guardians stated rules, and treat them like one of my own until their people return.
About: I do not have any special skills. But I am definitely responsible when it comes to taking care of people's dogs. I have taken care of my family's dogs when they went away on vacations. I can walk or be a sitter every other Tuesday because that is my day off from my full time job. I can start after 11am. I can watch dogs in your home but prefer not to bring them to my home. I can also take them on walks every other Tuesday.

“Tara did a great job walking Maddie in the blistering heat . She accepted the job on the same day as I was sick and unable to leave my apartment. She made sure Maddie didn’t get overheated, but got all her “business” done. I will certainly use her again!”

About: As my mom is a vet tech and also a dog sitter, I have many years of experience and knowledge on how to care for your dogs in the best way possible. I’m currently not working, so I have very flexible hours. I am in school, however it’s online, so I can do my work at the houses I stay at while continuing to care for the animals. I will make sure your dogs are fed, always have water, taken out regularly, taken on walks, and assure that they are in the best hands possible.

About: I have always had a dog and cat in my life (and still do!). I have been using Rover for two years and I don't seem to want to stop anytime soon. I have trained two golden retrievers and walked a lot of puppies, senior dogs and many ages in-between. One of my own dogs was awarded canine good citizenship before my children were born. I love being around animals and I have a caring nature. Now that my kids are getting older, it fits my need to get exercise and bring some joy into my life. I would love to give your pet some snuggles, snacks and I am always mindful to send lots of photos to ensure you can relax while you are away. I know that is what I would want as a pet owner. Some people think you have to either be a "dog person" or a "cat person". Not me! They both have a place in my heart for very different reasons. Cats take some time, but I love their comforting purr, the playfulness of spunky kittens or just petting their soft fur. Some owners simply just someone they can trust for a check-in. I am happy to provide the details needed so you can be OK while you are away. I am typically available in the afternoons as long as I don’t have a meeting scheduled (I work from home) and most evenings are available. Weekends are the best time to book care if you will be out for soccer games, dinner or long evening plans. I have kids as well and I have used Rover for 6+ years on my own pets. I am excited to return the favor to you now that my kids are older. I have used crates with my own pets during training and I will follow whatever safety instructions are needed. I understand all collars, how to avoid run ins with feisty dogs and other concerns you may have. I know how to troubleshoot dogs that like to find hiding spots or have the ability to slip out of the door. I am 40+ and I am raising tweens at this point, so I have a little wisdom under me that other walkers may not have at this point. I am also trustworthy. I have a great full-time job coupled with flexibility. I just want to combine my love of pets with a little extra income.
“Blake was amazing with my Pups! Picked them up and dropped them off for me. Even clipped their nails. That sounds simple but my lab absolutely hates it (sounds like you are murdering her and takes two people). He sent me a photo of her relaxed and smiling lol. Absolutely will be using him again”

“I'm very grateful Lucy was available this weekend. Maggie seemed to have had a great time and was very happy when she got home. Lucy's pick-up and drop-off was very punctual and she was available for an early drop-off when I returned home early in the day. Layla, Lucy's dog, seems to be a great playmate for Maggie. Got pictures of them playing and resting together every day. Will book again!”


“Viki & Dave were very warm & loving hosts to our 2 Jackabees (Jack Russell - Beagles). Our dogs had a really fun time playing with the other dogs, they got along wonderfully.”
