She was also very flexible with scheduling, which I really appreciated. I would not hesitate to leave Lisa and Maggie with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter.”

Iliana Ofelia S.

About: I have been dog sitting since I was 13! My experience includes senior dogs, medical-needs dogs, puppies, and everything in between. Both, growing up with dogs and pet sitting, has given me years to understand mannerisms, how to train animals, and most importantly, how to make sure they feel loved. I work fully remote therefore I have the ability to work anywhere & schedule check-ins and walks around my work schedule. Currently I am taking my dog on a walk in the morning and after dinner. I would be more comfortable boarding the dog in my home, but willing to discuss staying away if it is what is best for your pet! I have 1 dog. He is 30lbs and has never met a dog he doesn’t like!

“I can't say enough wonderful things about Angie and the exceptional care she provided for my fur baby, Mufasa, while I was away for military training. From the moment I contacted her, I felt at ease knowing my fur baby would be in such loving hands. Angie and her family truly went above and beyond. Mufasa was welcomed not just by Angie, but also by her kids, husband, and even her own pets. It was heartwarming to see how they all embraced him as part of the family. Every day, I received updates filled with photos and messages about his adventures, which kept my spirits high and reassured me that he was doing wonderfully. What impressed me even more was Angie's flexibility when I mistakenly provided the wrong dates for Mufasa's stay. She was incredibly accommodating, ensuring that everything worked out smoothly without any hassle. Her kindness and professionalism shone through in every interaction. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pet like their own, Angie is the one! I couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and Mufasa certainly enjoyed his time with her family. Thank you, Angie, for being so amazing! You’ve made a loyal customer out of us! 🐾❤️”

Raychell J.

“Our pup had a wonderful stay with Jessica and came home happy. With other animals and children in the house our dog always had company and playmates. Booking process was easy and I appreciated the communication and photos throughout his stay!”

Rachael P.

“Jennifer and James gave such great care to my Violet! They sent so many photos and made Violet feel right at home!”

Audrey G.

“This was our first time using Rover. This is a great option for pet care. Eliana was great with our three kitties. I highly recommend this service and Eliana!”

Stacey R.

“Wow! Allison stayed with my kitty Wally for three nights, and I came home to a happy and content boy - and he can be a handful! Home was also left immaculate. I appreciated the update pics off and on while I was away also. Thanks so much Allison!”

Jean G.

“Kimberlee was great about a short-notice booking, she was communicative, and took good care of my kitty.”

Phillip S.

“Always stayed in touch and showed up when supposed to. Was very interactive with the dogs and they seemed to like her a lot.”

“Went out of her way for a meet n greet, and was extremely flexible.”

Navan S.

About: I have had cats all my life and currently have one of my own. I have given cats all sorts of medication and am used to cleaning up after them.

“Delanie went above and beyond for us. She took our booking last minute and took great care of our babies! She worked with us on several situations to make sure our pets were getting the best care.”

Emily U.

“Really liked Lucas! He paid great attention to detail and genuinely cared for our cats. He also took a lot of pictures which is very appreciated. :)”

Becky Y.

“Christine, and her dog Daisy, make Fawn's day each Tuesday. Fawn loves going there and absolutely goes bonkers when we pull up to their house. But today, Christine went above and beyond for me. My car told me I had a low tire. And it was really low. I told her my husband would be there to air it up. She jumped in and got an air compressor from her garage and aired my tire. I was able to get home safely and my husband did not have to drive in to do that for me. I highly recommend Christine if you are looking for play dates for your pup. And Daisy loves having friends over.”

Robin W.

“Amanda is great. It was my first time using Rover. Great service. Plan to use her again. Thank you.”

Craig H.

“My dog has been getting daycare services with Ximena for about 3 weeks now and I couldn't be happier. Ximena is literally the most lovely and kind person I have ever met. She treats my dog as if she's one of her own. Ximena and her family are truly lovely people who genuinely love dogs. They always go above and beyond during my dogs visits, take tons of photos and give consistent updates. They cater to my dog and take such good care of her. I'm so happy that I found Ximena and I have no plans of ever taking her anywhere else.”

Derica J.

“Thank you! Winnie seemed to enjoy her visit with Haley and dog friends. She came back to me tired and happy - signs of a good doggie play day!”

Jane B.

“I felt like my dog was well taken care of! She even took her to a trail for a walk which is her favorite thing to do. Will definitely book with her again.”

Jordan B.

“Shannon was very patient and accommodating while we tried to figure out if we would need her or not. And I'm confident our little Lily was in good hands with her. Had a very positive, easy experience...highly recommend Shannon!”

Tia C.

About: I am a huge animal lover. We have 3 cats and a shepherd mix dog. I also have a 4 and a 6 year old, so any animals must be good with other animals, kids and able to be crated at night as our dog is also crated. I love and have taken care of many animals and enjoy all fur babies! I am a graduate student so I am home most of the day besides an hour or so for class so fur babies are well cared for and get plenty of attention. My husband also WFH so someone is typically always home. Our yard is unfenced so dogs will have to be leashed for potty time. My dog is crated at night and when we’re not home. Our cats free roam the house, so we just ask that your pet is friendly with cats.

“My dog went to doggy daycare at Kaila’s house & had a great time playing with her dog. She was easy to communicate with.”

Ashley V.

“Jennifer and James were such a God-send when Spenser and I were getting married last week!! Our wedding venue allowed for our doggie to be present at the ceremony (she walked the aisle in a flower collar and pearl leash :)!) but not reception, and so we needed not only a dog sitter but one who would be willing to pick up our girl from the wedding venue! James was happy to do it, showed up right on time, and our Chewie happily went with! They sent us cute pics of our babygirl relaxing on their couch and playing in their backyard during the wedding reception. It really put us at ease. We've never had to turn to Rover for dog sitting, usually we have family do it (obviously not an option when the whole family and friend-crew is at the wedding), but now that we know how amazing James and Jennifer are, we are forever grateful and liable to ask for their help again! Thanks SO much!!”

Marielle C.

“Caleb accepted our last minute booking and was very accommodating. We had a really early drop off and a late pickup and they had no issue with that. Curry had a great time with their family. Would definitely recommend him to anyone who needs daycare services!”

Krizia A.

“Catlyn was fantastic. My sometimes nervous dog seemed comfortable because of how Catlyn eased her into the new environment. Kallie took her time to sniff everything in the house and yard but Catlyn’s easy attitude let Kallie feel comfortable exploring. Her dogs were sweet and Catlyn takes care to be sure all the dogs are getting along or if she needs to separate them. Her yard and home are lovely and she is too. I would recommend Catlyn as a great choice.”

Susan B.

“Kelly treated my dog so well, walks and lots of play time in the backyard. She is kind and caring and creates a nurturing environment for animals.”

Patrick H.

“Nicole is so kind, providing great feedback and a great environment for Archie. He loved playing with Cora as well. She was very responsive, and it's clear she loves animals. Great caregiver.”

Paul Z.

About: My family has had cats ever since I was 12, I also rescued a goldendoodle 8 years ago and he has been my best friend ever since. I love all types of animals, and have experience with rabbits, horses, guinea pigs, and hamsters as well. I have been pet sitting and dog walking as a vet student for over a year now. I am a veterinary student in my clinical rotation years. I live in a duplex, meaning I have my own house with no roommates. It is a 2 bedroom, 1 bath. I can pet sit from your house if you have multiple pets and are gone for days or pet sit from my own place if you have just a cat or a smaller dog. I live in a duplex at the moment by myself without any pets, but I pet sit for friends a lot, driving over to their places to let the dogs out/walk them, feed the cats/dogs/fish and clean the litter boxes, make sure the water bowls are filled, etc.

About: Evan grew up on a farm and has been around a rotating cast of animals his whole life including dogs, cats, horses, and a llama. Gabrielle still routinely provides care for her family's 12-year-old golden doodle, Millie and loves dogs of all sizes breeds and personalities. We can't wait to hang out with your pups! we love walks, playtime and cuddles. Evan is a writer who works from home, and Gabrielle is a yoga teacher who is in and out depending on the day. we are home a lot because our dog has separation anxiety! We have a small fenced in yard with gravel and lots of plants. we can go back there for pee breaks and playtime plus we are very close to humboldt park where we love to walk our dog. Our house is cozy and dog friendly. our dog Bruce loves to play and cuddle with other pups

About: I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I currently have a dog named Rocko who is more like a daughter than a pet to me. I also have 2 adorable cats, one is 22 years old and the other is 5. I have always had passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets throughout my entire life. I have had dogs of all different breeds and sizes from an Australian husky mix to laber doodles. I also believe a healthy pup is an active pup so I would love to take yours out on a walk. Side note: I also offer grooming during house stays for an additional fee! I’m currently available anytime to look after your fury family while you’re away! Or if you just need a reliable animal lover to take your dog on a walk. A walk a day keeps the vet away! When watching your fur baby I will send you updates and pictures of how they’re doing, and fill you in on any activities we did together. I’ll also follow any guidelines left for me by the owner. If they’re staying at my house they will have to be leashed when outside. When inside they are free to explore and play and I can also crate them if needed.

About: Been taking care of dogs since i was a kid and im looking to build onto that experience so i can achive my goals & work my way to my dream job! I just recently moved back home I currently don't have a job & will be doing this mostly over the summer but will still be taking clients even after depending on job status, So ill have plenty of time to play with your pups I live in an 1 story house with 3 other family members who are use to dog sitting. We have a fenced in back yard, We also have a park that they can take walks on right across the street

About: I’m a HUGE animal lover and have experience taking care of all sorts of animals, from dogs, to cats, spiders, bunnies, frogs, and more! I have six cats of my own and foster medically fragile/behaviorally challenged cats from the Humane Society. It brings me so much joy when I see a cat truly start to thrive again. Because of how long I’ve been caring for animals, I’m experienced in providing a wide variety of care. Your puppy is still crate training? I can help! Your senior four-legged friend needs medication? I can do it! Your socially awkward pet doesn’t like people? That’s okay! You have an animal that most people don’t know how to care for? I guarantee you that I do. Working with animals is such a fulfilling part of my life and that’s why I’ve been doing it so long! **Rover takes a huge percentage of earnings for sitters! Therefore, I request that we use Venmo or another payment method instead of Rover! I work an incredibly flexible job, allowing me to spend quality time with your pets while you’re away. I work with my clients and around their schedules, making pet care as stress-free as possible! I usually care for pets in my client’s home, as my home is a bit of a zoo. I work hard to ensure we have trust and boundaries established so we both feel comfortable! One of the ways I do that is by doing a meet n greet beforehand. I love to get to know the pet parents and meet the pets before I start sitting.

About: I have worked in professional pet care for 4 years and have been watching neighbors dogs for the past 2 years. At doggy daycare I have worked with all sizes and ages of dogs and am comfortable with all of them. I am currently and student at The University of Missouri but am still able to come to your house to watch your pet. I can stay at your house during the week or weekend, my classes are during the middle of the day so they can go out plenty of times in the morning and night. I have three dogs at home that I am very used to taking care of as well as my cat. I can follow your pets schedule so there is no difference in your care and mine.

“Donna is EXCELLENT with my dogs Charlie and Buddy. They're Maltese-Shih Tzu mixes, 7 and 3 years old, and they absolutely love her and they walks she takes them on. I've watched her with my boys and based on what I've seen, would highly recommend Donna to anyone looking for a walker with a great temperament and strong skills at dog handling.”

Beth H.

About: Tons of animal experience, have been pet sitting since around the age of 13 for family and friends! Happy to provide references to make you know your pet is getting the best care! I currently am PRN for the state hospital so get to pick my own schedule! That being said I have plenty of time to care for your animals! I have a huge yard and large apartment with plenty of space to make your animals feel comfortable and welcomed while staying in my home!

About: I have training experience & trained my pup myself! We play, snuggle, walk, and continue to practice training every day! I love teaching my pup new tricks, and can do the same for yours! We are very happy & energetic in our home! My sweet Buster gets along with other animals very well! He's a sweetie! I make sure to do mentally stimulating activities and challenges for Buster! They're so good for dogs! I make them fun and rewarding! I can do that for your baby too! I work full-time. And when I come home, my attention is on my pup- getting his energy out and having fun! If your request is for house sitting, I would need to bring my dog along with me. I'm home all evenings and all weekends. On the weekend, especially, I'll be available to do all the caring for your sweet babe!! The #1 thing is I don't give my dog people food. If I do, he only gets safe fruits & veggies and cheese. I don't have anything a dog could choke on or really swallow. I put Buster in a kennel when I'm gone, but I could leave your dog out if they don't do kennels. Please ask me questions if you have any!
