“Diane was such a blessing. She has a really sweet and caring demeanor and we knew right away she was the right sitter to watch our fur babies.

“This is the first time we booked a House Sitting through Rover so we were a little nervous entrusting our two dogs and home to someone's care. From the time we met Elizabeth (Betsy), she alleviated our concerns. She is a gentle, kind and compassionate soul who immediately built rapport with us and our two beloved dogs. While we were away, Betsy, continually provided updates, including videos and pictures of our dogs. Betsy provided a caring and nurturing environment for our dogs, as well as took great care and respect of our home. I HIGHLY recommend Betsy to anyone who is considering a dog sitter. We will utilize Betsy for all of our dog care needs. She is the ultimate professional!”

About: I have been working with dogs since I was in high school. I love playing, walking, and cuddling with pups of all ages and sizes! My experiences vary in size and age, and I have dog sat check-ins, for a day, or overnight both at the dog’s house and my own house. I am a recent graduate of Illinois State University and am currently substitute teaching! Because of this, I am only available after 3:15 pm or for overnights! I have a fenced backyard with a lot of space for pups to run around and play. Potty breaks whenever they are needed and regiment feeding times work! Any rules you have at your own house for your pups will be followed at mine as well to keep their habits!

“Renee was an amazing cat sitter! Communicating with her was a total breeze and she sent tons of updates about her stay with my cat! She totally saved me when I needed a last minute sitter and I couldn’t recommend her services enough!! Thanks, Renee!”


“Carlin was attentive and responsive. She sent me lots of pictures and took a great care of the boys. Will definitely do it again. THANK YOU so much!”


About: I’ve always loved all pets! Grew up raising all kinds of farm animals. I currently have 2 dogs and I love taking them on adventures! I have a hybrid work schedule.

I treat my dogs as if this is their home and want them as comfortable as they can be. My dogs are always allowed on the bed and couches and roam as they please. They eat twice a day and have endless access to potty breaks in the back yard! The most I am out of the house is when I have to go to work, and can usually stop by for lunch and let them potty!
