“I can’t say enough about Chelsea. She is amazing. Leaving my pets is hard to do, but she makes me feel so comfortable. She takes amazing care of my pups and my home. You won’t find a better pet sitter.”
“There aren’t enough words to describe how great our experience with Fabienne was. She watched our dog, Louie, for 6 nights over the Christmas holiday. The peace of mind we felt, knowing our dog was being well cared for, was invaluable! From the very beginning, Fabienne was excellent at communicating with us and always responded promptly. She came early on our departure day to ensure a smooth transition. We received daily updates and photos. Honestly, I’m going to miss talking to Fabienne daily! We will absolutely be hiring her for future dog sitting. So grateful to have found such a caring and trusted dog sitter! Fabienne is incredible!”
“Kelsey provided exceptional care for my senior dog. From frequent check-ins with updates and photos to her considerate approach in handling my dog's low energy, she exceeded my expectations. Kelsey's kindness and patience shone through, making an instant connection with my dog, who rarely bonds outside the family. The numerous walks were a definite highlight. I highly recommend her services – a definite 10/10 experience. Looking forward to working with her again!”
“Michelle was a great sitter. She took fabulous care of Juniper and made sure to ask questions along the way during the visit to make sure everything for Juniper’s routine/care was in order. She left the apartment sparkling clean. Communication throughout her visit was great AND she sent tons of pics of cutie little Juni! Will definitely ask Michelle to sit for me again. ☺️”
“We had a wonderful experience with Aurora as our house sitter and dog caregiver! This was our Pups first time house sitting through Rover, and we couldn't be happier with how everything turned out. Aurora took care of our three dogs—each with their own personality and quirks—with patience, attentiveness, and genuine care. It was clear from the regular updates and photos that our dogs were happy, relaxed, and well-loved while we were away. Aurora stuck to our routines, managed feeding and play smoothly, and even kept the house tidy, which we really appreciated. It’s never easy leaving your pets, especially in the hands of someone new, in your home who you don’t know but Aurora exceeded our expectations. We would absolutely welcome her back and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible and kind pet sitter. Thank you again, Aurora for giving us peace of mind and taking such great care of our pups!”
“Kate was amazing with our 3 doggos! Well taken care of for sure! Sent lots of pics of the pups loving on her and playing! We will be using her again! I would recommend her 100%! You won't be sorry!”
About: I’m a huge animal lover that is very calm, patient, and will give your pets so much love and affection. I currently have a 16-year old shiba inu named Chibi, who is partially blind and deaf. He is super smart (if you look up "Shiba Inu Tricks" posted by user kathydnguyen on youtube, you will see some of his tricks) but has slowed down a lot and become a sweet but grumpy senior pup. I’ve also had other dogs, cats, and chickens in the past. If you have a puppy, I might be able to teach it a few tricks as well :) I’m experienced in all stages of life, from puppies with rambunctious energy to senior pets who might need a little extra help. I’m comfortable administering medication and being on a strict schedule, to keep everything as normal and consistent for your pet as possible. I’m currently pet sitting full-time, so I have plenty of time and flexibility to dedicate to your pets. I'm the go-to person in my friend groups to take care of their pets when they are busy since they all know that I am very responsible, patient, and am a huge animal lover. Because my own dog is a senior, I don’t offer boarding, but I do provide walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting in your own home.
About: I am a dog trainer and have experience training dogs as well as I have been walking dogs for 30 years! I have 3 dogs and they all walk together! I do dog training and my schedule is flexible. Petcare is my focus as this is my career. I do dog training in person and online as a full-time job I am very conscientious and careful with pets as I have had my own dogs run off before. I am cautious when opening and closing doors and walking around other animals.
“Another awesome job by Abigail. She's watched our dogs three times now and it's always a pleasure for them and us, as well as peace of mind knowing that they're in good hands (and heart) while we're away.”
“Tiffany was absolutely a wonderful house sitter! I could not have asked for a better person to love to my pup while I was away for 12 nights. She kept me updated and sent pics frequently. Came back to a happy dog and clean home!”
About: I’ve worked with dogs of all shapes, sizes, and behaviors. I have a wide range of experience from training puppies to caring for older dogs. I love all animals and take their care and happiness very seriously! I’m only working part time so I have a very free schedule to play with your pets! I am also very flexible and willing to work around any scheduling obstacles. I take an animals environment very seriously and believe that it is a huge contributor to their happiness! I prefer to work with animals in their home environment so their transition into my care is a smooth one!
“Vivien took such great care of Zyon! She sent me periodic pictures and videos! She followed my feeding and medication instructions perfectly and walked her multiple times :) Zyon was also on medication and had to wear an Elizabeth collar bc of her spay, Vivien made sure to take care of her well with this extra medical need that my pet has! Would definitely recommend having her watch your fur baby :)”
“Whitney was awesome! She took great care of our fur baby Jack and watched over our house. She sent us pictures and updates on Jack. He has separation anxiety issues and I always hate leaving him but I had peace of mind that Whitney was there with him. I would definitely recommend her and will use her again in the future!”
“Torie was amazing! Professional, personable, caring, communicative and polite. We were so nervous to leave our 5 month puppy and she made us feel so confident that she was getting plenty of love and attention. Torie went above and beyond to provide excellent care for our puppy and even cleaned up more than we expected her to. We will definitely be booking Torie again!”
“Ditto on what everyone has said about Kyra. She is awesome!! She did a great job taking care of our dog Maggie while we were out of town. It was so hard to leave her but she was in good hands with Kyra. We received so many amazing photos and updates of our dog. We could tell when we got home that Kyra really worked on Maggie’s walking. Maggie loves to pull on our walks and Kyra worked on this and now she pulls a lot less. We would definitely recommend her.”
“Brittany and Samantha were absolutely amazing. They kept me updated daily with my dogs while I was out of town and kept them in good company. This was my first experience using Rover for an overnight stay and I’m so happy I came across their page. I felt very comfortable with them in my home with my little fur babies and I could not recommend them more! Will definitely be using them in the future :)”
“Marie was awesome with our little fur baby this past weekend. She sent us pictures of their adventures and hangouts. We are beyond grateful for her loving care of our Ziggy. We will definitely be using her in the future. So happy we found her. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!”
About: I love animals of all shapes and sizes, and I’m passionate about providing them with a happy, healthy lifestyle. I have professional experience working in a veterinary clinic as both a kennel manager and a veterinary assistant, so I’m confident in caring for pets with all kinds of needs. Building trust is important—I want your animals to feel safe and cared for, and for you to feel comfortable leaving them with me. I’m experienced in administering medications, handling special care routines, and accommodating allergies or physical limitations. My goal is to promote both the health and happiness of your pet while giving you peace of mind. I’ll treat your animals as if they were my own, because I know how much they mean to you. Thank you for considering me to care for your fur babies! Pet care fits easily into my schedule since I’m not tied to a traditional 9–5 job. I’m available seven days a week, Monday through Sunday, and can often accommodate holiday schedules as well. My goal is to be reliable, flexible, and present for both you and your pet whenever you need. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping things safe, stress-free, and familiar. I’ll follow your routines, keep the space clean, and make sure your pet feels loved and comfortable while you’re away. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can see how your pet is doing and feel at ease while you’re away from your fur babies! In my home, your pup will be treated like part of the family! Since I share my home with both dogs and cats, visiting dogs do need to be friendly with other pets. At night, dogs are safely crated for rest, and during the day they’ll have plenty of time to run, play, and explore in my large fenced yard. There’s also a pool in the yard, which is always kept secure so everyone stays safe. Please note that I don’t offer in-home care for cats at this time.
“Thank you for taking great care of our pups. I'm thankful for you staying at our home with them, I'm sure it made it easier on them being in their own environment. Hopefully you will be willing to do this again in the future...”

Villa Park pet parents share their Rover experiences
Laura was amazing with my two dogs when my fiancé and I went out of town for our wedding. We have never left our pets with someone who isn’t family and were definitely nervous about it, but Laura kept us updated the whole time, sent lots of pictures, and made sure we weren’t stressing about our dogs while we were at the wedding.
Bianca is absolutely amazing! She goes above and beyond with every visit and clearly has a special connection with animals. Our three cats are usually pretty shy around new people, but they were completely relaxed and happy with her, a true sign of how comfortable she makes them feel. She also sends the most incredible photos that show just how much she cares and pays attention to every detail. On top of that, she’s super responsive and easy to communicate with. We feel so lucky to have found her!
Aurora is an amazing sitter and I would highly recommend her to anyone! I was expecting her to keep my dogs alive while house sitting and watching our pups for a few days, but she went above and beyond to make sure the dogs had an amazing time while I was gone. She treated them with so much love and took them on adventures. She was a pro at dealing with my anxious thoughts and was always quick to communicate, sending updates all the time with pictures. Aurora has definitely gained a lifelong client from this experience! If I could give her even more stars, I would!
Holly did an amazing job taking care of our dogs and our home while we were away! She handled our dogs, two Great Danes (including a senior) with so much care, patience, and love. Managing dogs of such different needs isn’t easy, but she made it look effortless. On top of that, she kept our house spotless, which we really appreciated. It was such a relief knowing everything was in great hands. We came home to happy, well-cared-for pups and a clean home. We highly recommend Holly to anyone looking for a responsible, trustworthy, and kind sitter. We’ll definitely be booking her again!
Kyra was so loving and reliable with our pups (who can be kind of high maintenance) and she made us feel completely comfortable. She asked great questions, sent wonderful updates, and shared the cutest photos each day!! She also left our home immaculate and went above and beyond to make sure one of our dogs got enough to eat when he was refusing his food. She’s a saint. Can’t wait to book her again!
This was the first time in Kody's 12 years that we left him with a pet sitter, and Fayth was outstanding! Kody took to her right away and had the best time! We are so grateful for all the pictures and feedback about how he was doing, and Fayth will definitely be our first choice when we need a pet sitter again!
Sophia does an amazing job of taking care of our dear Marley and our home. She exudes a calm confidence and is responsible and considerate. She sends lots of great updates and photos, and we can relax and enjoy our vacations! We have been so lucky to have her help us multiple times and look forward to more!
