House Sitting in Deerfield

Beth is fantastic!! She was incredibly attentive to our dog who had just lost his big brother and best friend when our older dog died unexpectedly the day before we had to leave town for a week. She took care of our pup as if he were hers and gave us timely and excellent updates everyday. Highly recommend!

Gabrielle was great with our two dogs. She stayed with them for just under a week while we traveled out of the country. I wasn’t worried about them AT ALL, which was a huge relief. Knowing they are comfortable, at home, while we are away makes the vacation that much more relaxing. Gabrielle sent photos, updates and was flexible with the start/end times. We will be using her again, for our next trip. And our house was in great shape when we got home, couldn’t ask for more. Thank you!!

I’ve booked Anna a couple of times now and she’s fantastic! Super reliable, caring, and sends me lots of updates and pictures throughout the day, which gives me total peace of mind. My pup is always happy and well looked after. Highly recommend!

Karina did a fantastic job spending the evening with my dog! She provided regular check-ins and adorable photos. I was happy to have my dog safely under her care.

We had a great experience with Jiayi! She was incredibly communicative, respectful, and thoughtful throughout her stay. She kept us updated and was very easy to coordinate with. We really appreciated how responsive and responsible she was, and we’d be happy to have her sit for us again!

Makayla went above and beyond for us as a sitter. She accepted a rush booking and took the time to do a meet and greet before we left. We ended up with cancelled flights and she was kind enough to stay with our pets a few extra days. She sent pictures every day, kept us updated, and was very kind and professional in her communication. She took excellent care of our two dogs and two cats as well as our house while we were away. I can’t thank her enough for coming through for us and I highly recommend her as a pet sitter. -Anna

Calvin (our dog!) was really excited to see Michael when he arrived. When we returned 4 hours later, he was happy to see us, but clearly was completely relaxed about our having left him for so long. This was the first time we’ve gone out to dinner in Chicago since we adopted Calvin 9 months ago! We’ve been working on his separation anxiety, and having Michael stay with him worked just great!

I am sorry I waited a week before leaving this review; it took me a week to settle back into my life and to observe my dog, Clyde, after I had left him in the care of another sitter and Nicholas for four days each. My primary goal in booking through Rover was to ensure the care of Clyde. I am very pleased with Clyde's condition and energy in the week I have been home. As his care was split between two sitters, I would have to say that both gave him the attention and care that he needed. My other goal was the care of my house which, I believe, was also excellent. Highest marks to Nicholas and to my other sitter.

Scott was wonderful watching Dilly while I was away for the long weekend. He provided lots of pictures and updates so I didn’t worry while I was gone.

Lisa T is AWESOME. She took great care of our elderly chihuahua, providing regular walks, feeding and medication. Lisa T also sent us photos, videos and updates. She respected our home, leaving it clean and tidy. Highly recommended!

My boys were so happy. Received lots of pictures which I appreciated so much. We were so anxious leaving them but Donna and her husband made us feel so much better.

Ke'Vin was excellent...our dogs Dani and Kobe enjoyed their time with him...he was super responsive and dealt with 8" of snow at our house along with our two dogs...highly recommend!!!

Meg supported during a very stressful family emergency. She agreed to help on very short notice and freed us up to go to the hospital to stay with our sick loved one. We are so grateful to Meg for quickly jumping in to lend us a hand!

Sarah was great watching Ollie and housesitting while we were out of town! She was attentive to his needs, and even helped him take his medication each day! She was communicative with us and asked questions when things came up regarding his care. We really appreciated Sarah’s compassionate care with our pet!

We were very happy with Michelle. She took great care of Griffin. She sent daily photos and communicates promptly. I will be using her again.

Arianna did great with Porkchop! She was punctual to his feeding times and he looked happy and healthy when we returned. We will keep her in mind for future bookings!
