“Brooke is a fantastic pet sitter! She pays a lot of attention to my dog, follows my instructions and often goes the extra mile with him without being asked.

She is highly accessible, sends pictures of her time with him, and highly recommend Brooke to anyone who wants a caring, helpful, attentive pet lover. In the past she has also taken care of my cat with either same devoted attention and my cat loves her.

Winnetka pet parents share their Rover experiences
Yuliia was an amazing pet sitter who went above and beyond! We were gone for 3 weeks and she really helped our kitties during this period! She fed them, scooped their litter box, played with them and sent daily photos of them! She even brought a toy of her own in to play with the kitties! Our one cats is very shy around other people, but after a few days Yuliia’s sweet personality gained our shy kitty trust and the rest of the time she was out playing. I would definitely use Yuliia again!!! 10/10!!!!!
Skyler was a lifesaver...we made arrangements for a sitter before our travels but they fell through. We contacted Skyler and she was more than willing in to help out. She took excellent care of our two fur babies (cats), they fell in love with her. We will most definitely be booking with Skyler again, soon.
I couldn’t be happier with the care my two cats received while I was away. Leyla was absolutely fantastic — not only did she feed them on time and keep their litter boxes spotless, but she also made sure they got plenty of playtime and attention. I loved getting regular photo and video updates, which really helped ease my mind and showed just how happy and comfortable my cats were. It was clear they were in great hands! My house was exactly as I left it — clean, tidy, and well looked after. It was such a relief to return home to calm, content kitties and everything in perfect order. Highly recommend Leyla to anyone looking for a responsible, caring, and communicative pet sitter. Will definitely book again!
Bianca is reliable and very calm around my energetic dogs. It was relief to know that my dogs were cared for while I was away for a work trip. She was prompt with her visits and followed all my instructions. I would recommend Bianca to anyone who is looking for someone who needs drop in visits for their pets. Thanks Bianca!
Jayline was great! She asked really good questions during our meet and greet that made me feel really confident that she would take good care of my kitties. I loved all of the photos she shared from her visits, she brought in some mail and packages for us, and the cats did seem to enjoy having her take care of them! 100% would use her again!
