Amazing first walk with Theo! He can be difficult to wrangle but with a little patience (and cheese) he loves his walks. Rachel is so responsive, timely and I appreciate her confidence in my pups handling (he can be guarded if humans). Thank you Rachel!! Can’t wait for the next walk!

Camila was prompt to answer messages, and ready to accommodate our last minute needs. She was punctual for our agreed walk times, and thoughtful in asking questions about our dog’s care. Camila was reasonable with her fee and helped ease our minds while away from home. I would highly recommend her and hope to have her care for our dog again in future! Thanks Camila!🙂

This was our first time using the app and we were skeptical, but after having Jamie care for our dog 2 weeks in a row we’re sold. Without hesitation she will be our first contact when seeking any stay/walk for our dog. Highly recommend and a great communicator.

I've had Anne cat sit for me twice now and usually I get a stern talking to from my cat when I get home, because I've left him. However, with Anne, I can tell she spent time with him and gave him the love that he needs. I plan to use Anne's services in the future and I highly recommend her. She's just the best! She even helped with watering my plants and garden on my longer trip!!!!

Alina has been wonderful with our pup! Talking to her, it was clear she understood how to help us enforce good leash walking habits and other good habits our pup has developed. It makes me so happy when I'm at work and get those pupdates. I can tell my dog is having a great time and is in great hands. Some of my favorite pics of her now have been taken by Alina.

About: Ask me how to get $20 off your first Rover booking with me! Hola- Hablo Español, también! Hello there! I am a dog and cat mama myself and love to be around all animals. I have owned and babysat chickens, cats, and dogs since i was little. I am very patient and loving towards animals and would love to care for your fur baby as per your requests while you are away. I work at home full time so I am up early and will spend full days with your pet. Let me know of any special requests and I will be happy to fulfill them! Located in Elgin IL. I work from home full time and have a highly social and playful dog. During the day your boarded babies will play with Bentley (my dog) and nap on the bed in my office to jazz and classical music. During my break I usually walk my dog midday or late afternoon. If your dog or cat is not boarded, after 11A I am free to pop over and check on your fur babies and spend some time with them. My dog and cats safety at home are a high priority, I keep my home clean and free of anything they might chew or choke on. As well as all chemicals and other hazards showed away in cabinets they are unable to open. For my anxious dog I keep classical music on throughout the house to create a peaceful environment. Your pooch will feel at ease in my home and will always be watched and cared for. I make sure to send plenty of pictures and videos to update you on their mood and how their day is going. Nothing better than getting reassurance that your fur baby is in the best hands!! In your home I will watch them the entire time while they are playing and eating to make sure they are okay and haven’t gotten into any trouble.

Marilyn has dog sat for our large pitbull several times. She is a responsible sitter who gives our dog a ton of attention and outdoor time. I appreciate the updates that she sends while we are away, and she always leaves our home cleaner than she found it. Our dog can be stubborn, but she has a ton of patience with him. She has also administered his medicine when needed. Five stars.

About: I look forward to meeting your pets!!! I have been the primary caretaker for 5 dogs, 3 for my family, and currently 2 of my own. I can teach basic commands like sit, stay, and paw. I have also taught one of my dogs to use the Tik Tok speech buttons so he can let us know when he’s hungry or wants to go outside. I have experience taking care of one large senior dog. Mostly consisting of mixing burgers in her food and using a sling made of towels to help her outside. I feed my dogs separately in the morning and evening because they’re territorial. I walk them for 20 minutes in the morning, afternoon, and evening and play tug of war with them throughout the day to wear them out. I understand every dog is different based on their breed and personality and care for them accordingly. I do everything I can to make dogs feel safe, loved, and stimulated. I’ll play when they want to play but I try to keep their eating and potty breaks scheduled. Also many pets and cuddling throughout the day.

Jacqueline did great with my pup who’s sometimes shy around strangers. He needs a slow introduction and gets scared pretty easily. She was patience and kind with him. Looking forward to more visits. :)

Karen for as long as I know her has been the kindest person I know when it comes to all animals! I have seen her take wonderful care of her family dog and when introduced to all my family dogs, she treats them all with the same love. They all bring a clear happiness to her and she is extremely responsible about all the doggos in her life and around her. She’s an amazing choice for a dog sitter!

Carson has “babysat” my pup several times. He is an expert with pups, sensitive to their needs and individual personalities. My pup is a bit shy, but she always perks up with Carson comes by. I would recommend Cason to watch any of my animals if the need came up again. Highly recommended!
