“Ilene was fantastic and went above and beyond my expectations which is so greatly appreciated! Ilene’s communication and timeliness is perfect and even provided me with adorable pics & videos of playtime with Rozz which warmed my heart while I was away. Ilene’s love and care for animals is exactly what I was looking for. I highly recommend Ilene for any of your pet care needs!”


About: I grew up in a family that raised guide dogs for the blind, which gave me experience caring for dogs of all types of personalities. I've also looked after pets for friends and family and I always enjoy spending time with animals. I'm home from college for the summer and have a very flexible schedule with availability most days. Aside from a daily gym visit, I have plenty of time to give pets the attention and care they deserve. I care for pets by following their usual routine as closely as possible. This includes feeding, walks, playtime, fresh water, and plenty of attention. I'll also follow any specific care instructions and provide updates so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.
“Jackie was great! Kitties were very well taken care of. Pictures were sent throughout of them playing, having treats, etc which was nice to see while we were away! Would definitely use her again!”

About: Hi, my name is Missy I've had a great deal of experience with all different kinds of animals. I worked with a local vet helping place feral cats in homes and providing excellent care for them. Including helping pregnant feral cats with delivery and maternal care. I have volunteered at the Wisconsin Humane Society. There I worked in the Wildlife rehabilitation center as well as the dog care center. I currently own dogs and cats of my own and I recognize how important it is to provide excellent care as well as exercise and playtime. I have past experience in boarding and dog sitting in my home which has always been a great experience. Can't wait to give the love and care your dog(s) deserve!
“Melissa dropped in to check on my 2 cats for four days. She was kind, dependable and responsible which gave me peace of mind, especially considering one of my cats is elderly and needs daily medication.”
“Travis helped us with hour-long drop in visits during the work day. We contacted him with short notice and he was quick to reply and help! Very friendly and professional, and he sent us great pictures of our pup.”

“Jessica was amazing!! She sent photos and updates, I knew my pup was having a great time. Really happy to meet her, I never have to worry about Russell being alone.”

“Jessica was great with my German shepherd, my dog has been going through some health issues and when I went out of town for 4 days I needed someone to come take care of her 3 times a day and mix up her special food, take her for walks and monitor her potty breaks. Jessica was also super flexible with the timing of her visits and made this potentially stressful time super easy for me and my dog. 5 stars. Would reccomend her to anyone.”

“Carrianne was amazing with my cat Millie! Very nice and friendly in our initial meet and put such great care towards my cat. Incredibly thorough updates with super cute pictures!! Will definitely be reaching out again next time I need services, 10/10 recommend!!”

About: I have had experience caring for many different kinds of animals throughout my life, such as dogs, horses, guinea pigs, and fish. I am comfortable and confident with walking, feeding, bathing, etc. I am a full-time grad student, and I also work a part-time job. My schedule is a little different each weekday, sometimes with breaks in the middle of the day. I am available all day on the weekends. I do not currently care for any pets in my home. I am not currently accepting jobs that require a pet to stay in my home.
“We can't say enough wonderful things about Hope! We hired her to care for our cat Tiki while we were away on an extended vacation, and she exceeded every expectation. From the start, Hope took the time to truly get to know Tiki, who needed extra attention and engagement. She worked with us to build a personalized visit plan, and her ability to read Tiki's moods and adjust accordingly was remarkable — whether that meant an active harness training session or simply curling up together when Tiki needed comfort and cuddles. That kind of intuition and attentiveness is rare and made such a difference. Her communication throughout our trip was consistent and reliable, giving us complete peace of mind while we were away. If you're looking for a cat sitter who will genuinely connect with your pet and give them exactly what they need, we would recommend Hope without hesitation, and plan to hire her again!”

About: I am a former dog handler that worked at a doggy day care where I cared for multiple dogs daily, managing different temperaments and energy levels. I’m experienced in supervising play, maintaining safety, and keeping dogs calm, comfortable, and well cared for. I’ve also owned dogs and cats in my lifetime as well! Genuinely an animal lover. I’m available for morning and evening visits on weekdays, and I have open availability on weekends. I offer flexible scheduling for walks, drop ins, and pet sitting, and I do my best to accommodate each pet’s routine. I prioritize a safe, calm, and clean environment. I’m attentive to each pet’s behavior and needs, follow routines closely, and make sure every pet feels comfortable, secure, and well cared for.
“Whitney did a great job taking care of our cat while we were away. She dropped in twice daily and sent the best updates/pics. He’s a social guy and seemed totally content with her. We will definitely keep her in mind for future trips.”

About: I have grown up with dogs all my life. Every time I get the opportunity to watch a fur baby, I treat them like they are my own. I have done some dog/puppy training as well, and I've always gotten great reviews on what one's pet can do by the time they go home (If interested) My schedlue is fairly flexible. I am able to move clients around depending on your availability. This is my full-time gig as of now, so I take lots of pride in the care I provide to your pet(s). I have currently moved to Riverwest, this came with a fenced in backyard (yayyyy)! I live close to lots of parks, dog park (Rover west), and trails.
About: I don't actually call myself that, that's what my friends say I am. I've literally never met a dog I didn't get on famously with. I respect the fact that they are individuals with their own needs. I don't mean to sound too self assured with the title, but I earned it from friends. Whether it's running on the Lake Michigan shore or just finding a nice sunny spot to sit for a while, your pup is going to have a fulfilling day. I have huge flexibility so no worries! A last minute trip or planned weeks in advance, we can work something out. I'm here for you! Even same day! I strive for communication as much as possible between animal and human. If they're not feeling like socializing, I don't force anything. Everyone has different needs. My experience in a dog daycare really helped me read and understand dog body language to head off any issues that may arise when you're watching 12 dogs.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Arlington Heights
Melissa was a great cat and turtle sitter. She stayed quite a while with them each time, playing with one cat. Our other cat who is skittish did not come out but Melissa made sure she ate and did her business. She was very concerned about that cat. The turtle does need much attention but Melissa was interested in her and made sure she was fine. I highly recommend Melissa and would have her come again.

We had a great experience with Travis, and will absolutely book with him again. He was responsive, easy to communicate with, and kept us updated while we were away. Our dogs were happy, healthy, and well cared for when we returned, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. We highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.

Angela was wonderful! She treated our puppies with so much love and care during her drop-in visit. She spent quality time playing with them, giving them lots of hugs and attention, and it was clear she genuinely enjoys being around dogs. She was also very accommodating, responsive, and easy to communicate with throughout the entire process. We felt completely at ease knowing our puppies were in such caring hands. We would absolutely book Angela again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate pet sitter!
