“Dong was super responsive and a great sitter! Highly reccomend. The cats were well cared for and the apartment was left really tidy. I know the cats would love to stay with Dong again!! Thank you!!”

“This is my second time using Kat in just two weeks, and I’m so glad I found her. I have a large, reactive Golden Retriever, and Kat handles her calmly and confidently, especially on walks where my dog can pull. She’s very aware of triggers and I always feel at ease knowing my dog is in good hands. She makes sure my dog gets real time outside, including the park (her favorite), not just quick potty breaks. Kat is always on time, sends lots of updates, is genuinely kind and caring, and leaves my apartment exactly how I left it. Easily the best sitter experience I’ve had. I already have her reserved for a 2-week stay next month.”

“Jocelyn was amazing! We needed a dog sitter on short notice, and Jocelyn not only came through for our anxious dog but also made the experience one that added to her life. She walked her, loved her, and earned my trust during her stay. Our family will most definitely book again with Jocelyn and I encourage you to book with her as well!”

About: I provide reliable dog walking, drop-in visits, and in-home pet care. I have experience caring for a cat for 17 years and a Maltese for 2 years, so I understand both long-term care and daily pet needs. I’m calm, patient, and good with all temperaments, and I follow routines carefully to keep pets safe, comfortable, and well cared for while keeping owners updated. Pet care is my full-time focus, allowing me to offer availability seven days a week for dog walking, drop-in visits, and in-home sitting. My flexible schedule enables me to provide dependable care, consistent routines, and personalized attention to each pet’s needs. Please feel free to contact me to discuss availability and scheduling. My focus is to keep pets comfortable and secure by maintaining their normal routine in their own home while carefully following all care instructions, including feeding, walks, potty breaks, medication, and playtime. I also provide regular updates so owners feel confident their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for at all times.
“Jenid had excellent communication, she took great care of my dogs, and she was respectful of my apartment. You can tell she has experience working with dogs and that this isn’t just a random side hustle for her; Jenid cares about the dogs and her clients. I would definitely book with Jenid again!”

“We cannot thank Milena enough!!! This was the first time leaving our puppy and she made us feel very comfortable by sending updates and pictures during our time away. We also had some last minute travel changes and she was super flexible with changing the plans. Our puppy adored her and we’re so glad we found a trustworthy sitter for him!”

“Daniel did an excellent job taking care of my two senior pups on such short notice for 9 days during the Thanksgiving holiday after i had an unexpected last minute cancellation from my other pet sitter. Daniel came to the rescue and was diligent about the medications needed to be administered for my pup Ray who has 4 eye medications to do on a daily basis. Daniel sent pictures and videos and kept me updated along the way. He also left the home spotless on my arrival and with happy pups! Will definitely be reaching out to him for the next time. Thank you Daniel!”


“Michelle is the best! She's worked with my dog several times, and I will definitely hire her again. My dog Lucy loves Michelle, and she's not the easiest dog to care for. Michelle is compassionate and clearly a dog lover. She's also trustworthy and hard working.”
“Yolanda was very informative and accommodating for our first time using Rover. Our pups seemed comfortable with her right away. She communicated with us throughout our trip and sent us pics of our fur babies. Will definitely work with her again.”

“Marquis has proven to be an exceptional caretaker for Jax. With his genuine love for dogs and his responsible and attentive nature, Marquis has become a trusted and reliable choice for any pet owner in need of a dog sitter. I’d highly recommend him and I’ll be sure to book him again to watch Jax.”

I can take your pups to a dog park and play as I do not have a fenced yard. Also I have a play room for kitty.
“Absolutely wonderful experience! They dropped in on my dog three times today and was extremely communicative throughout, sending frequent updates and photos. My dog looked happy, relaxed, and well cared for in every visit. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. Highly recommend and would absolutely book again.”

“Emily was a GREAT sitter who stepped in at the last minute to sit with Samantha at my house for a business trip that I had. She is a true professional, communicative, prompt, and so easy going. Samantha was well taken care of, she sent me pics of feedings and fun and the house was clean and well maintained. I'll definitely be using her again!!!”

“Our dogs love Susi so much. She is the only sitter we trust to give them the best care. She is our go to for dog walking, drop ins, and overnight stays. She can walk both of our rambunctious dogs who pull, give them extra snuggles, and always sends the best pictures. She is a dog whisperer who loves animals and they love her right back!! Susi, you’re the best thank you for always taking the best care of our boys ❤️”

“Kaitlin was our house sitter for a long weekend and we couldn’t have been happier. She completely put our minds at ease watching Vinnie and shared the cutest photos and updates every day. We are repeat clients and absolutely recommend Kaitlin all day!!”

“Alekhandra has watched our puppy twice now and she absolutely loves her!! She gets so excited when she comes to watch her. She follows all instructions and keeps us updated throughout the night with photos and videos. We appreciate her so much and highly recommend!”

“Did a great job again! My dog needed to go to the vet while I was out and without hesitation Aiyana took him and administered medication prescribed. Appreciated her flexibility, communication, and time while watching my animals.”

West Side pet parents share their Rover experiences
Kaitlin house sat for my two older dogs and she was a life saver. One of my dogs got sick and she handled taking him to the vet and administered meds perfectly. I was very comfortable with her taking care of the dogs and my place and will happily have her sit again.

Aiyana was great! Would absolutely ask her to stay and watch Maggie again. She helped me out last minute and was able to be communicative and prompt right away. She showed up on time to meet Maggie and grab the keys from me. The apartment was left clean and organized.

So glad we found Ashley for our cat-sit! She was a perfect companion for our two cats, and they warmed up to her very fast, evidence by the multiple cuddle pictures 🐾 We appreciate how professional and cleanly she was while staying at our place. We will definitely book again!

I highly recommend Dong! He came over a couple days before to meet my animals (my dog is a little skittish) he handled my Shiba screaming at him the first day and then continued to keep me updated through out my whole trip. My animals were in good hands and so will yours

Aniko took amazing care of my senior kitties. She earned their trust quickly and sent me continuous reports on how they were doing following all my directions on feeding. She even sent over daily videos of treat time playing. Above that, she took amazing care of my apartment and let in handyman as needed to take care of things. I highly recommend booking her! And plan to do so again myself.
