House Sitting in Des Plaines

This was our first time using Rover and we were so happy with Loren! She was amazing with our dog, Rocky, and we felt completely comfortable with her in our home. She was very professional and sent us great updates with photos. We highly recommend Loren and will definitely be using her services again!

Sadie took great care of Booker. She was responsive and very communicative throughout the sitting. Would book again!

Ryan is absolutely amazing! He house sat my Westie puppy who is a bit of a handful and my cat, Nosey! He kept Tobi (the puppy) well entertained. They were both well taken care of and Tobi was so excited every time she saw him! Will absolutely rebook!

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!!

Sarah was fantastic watching our pups while we were on vacation!! Highly recommend!

We have used Dylan a few times with our two high energy dogs and he is amazing!! Always very communicative with us and we always feel at ease knowing Dylan is taking care of our boys!

Veronica was an amazing sitter for my two dogs while the family and I were on a summer vacation. My puppy Shadow is new to me and gets into EVERYTHING. She has to be crated or monitored 24/7. Veronica paid great attention to her and communicated any unavoidable incidents promptly. Upon returning home, Shadow is calmer and more responsive to commands—better now than when I left thanks to Veronica. My special needs pitty had no new scrapes and was able to sleep in bed with her each night making the transition nearly seamless. Veronica administered medication for soft poops/diarrhea that started in BOTH dogs the day before we left and had to complaints making the puppy’s complicated fresh food dinner. We will absolutely be using Veronica in the near future for any sitting walking or boarding needs, we are all lucky to have met her :)

Charlotte arrived on time and took great care of my dog. She provided with me updates and pictures. I would highly recommend her.

Best sitter we have had for Mick! Daily communication, with pictures and made us feel so comfortable while we were away. It was a last minute booking and she was able to come meet mick quickly and made us feel at ease right away. Our house was spotless and taken care of above and beyond! We can’t wait to have her back.

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.

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.

Tiffany was kind and gentle with my anxious dog. She extended her stay when our flight got cancelled and was very flexible with her availability. She left our house as she found it!

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.

Ellie took great care of our dog, Buster, for the weekend! She was very quick to respond and very professional. She sent us many pictures/videos and texts while we were gone to give us updates on how Buster was doing. She played with him and took him on walks and made sure to keep him entertained. She stayed at our house everything was neat and clean when she left. We will definitely be using Ellie again to take care of Buster!

Diane was fantastic! She took excellent care of my two kittens, including one who needed meds three times a day. She sent me updates and photos and was great about communicating throughout my time away. She even made sure that my flight was not delayed before she left the kittens. When I got home, my apartment was very clean and my kittens were very happy and well-cared for! I would definitely have her take care of my kittens again!

Jo was absolutely fantastic with our little dog, Luna! We were in a pinch needing a last-minute sitter, as Luna usually stays with family, and we are so incredibly grateful we found Jo. Jo was great with communication, sending us daily updates that really put our minds at ease. She clearly cared for our dog wonderfully. We highly recommend Jo!

Michael was great sitting our 3 dogs in our home! We have small, medium, and large and personalities to match, and Michael managed them all well. He sent pictures and videos daily, which kept our minds at ease while we were away. Our home was left as we found it. We are pleased overall and grateful for Michael's services!
