“Jen has been walking my dog twice a week since late February. Jen is dependable and treats my dog with care and compassion. Jen is also very flexible- she has jumped in for extra walks to support my changing schedule. She is quick to reply with updates. Thanks for all you do Jen!”

About: Growing up we always had dogs. When I got older I've owned dogs, cats, and fish. I've fostered dogs and cats for about 12 years until I become a foster failure to my Maryanne. She is a hound mix. In my fostering I have taken care of puppies, senior dogs and dogs with special needs. I will work with your dog and use the commands/ techniques that you use to instill consistency. I currently have plenty of time to play with your fur babies! I have a dog as well so I would be in and out during the day. So I can take care of my Maryanne. I am able to stay at your house from evening to morning to care for your babies. I will treat your home and four legged members of your family with respect! Shower then with lots of play and cuddles. Also plenty of walks!

“Giada went above and beyond our expectations. She came out after a horrific weather event here last week in Palatine. She even sent us pics and updates of the storm damage done to our property too as well as telling us our kitty was safe!”

“!! ☆☆☆☆☆ !! Jaime helped me out last minute (about 3 days or so before my flight) with drop in visits for my 2 parakeets and my sugar glider, all animals that I didn't have a chance to have her meet nor time for me to give her a spare copy house key before I left! I was nervous letting a stranger into my home without meeting her first but since I have cameras and it was last min, I had no other choice. Thankfully, I had absolutely ZERO reason to worry!!! Jaime took great care of my lil monsters and was incredibly respectful towards my home! I don't live in Illinois anymore but HIGHLY RECOMMEND Jaime! You won't be disappointed!”

About: I have had the pleasure and joy of being able to take care of lots of different animals for over 10 years. I spent some time on a farm where taking care of sheep, pigs, chicken, ducks, and the barn cats and dogs was a daily thing. Later on, I was the proud mama of a german shepherd named Bruno who stole my heart in every way. Unfortunately he is now gone since November of 2023. Since then, my lifestyle has changed and I am not able to have another dog of my own due to long working hours four days out of the week. However I love taking care of pets, especially dogs, and this is the perfect way to still have a connection with these wonderful creatures, even if they are not my own :) I promise to take care of yours as if it was my own! They will be royally treated with me! My Fridays through Sundays are free from other work and I would love to be able to take care of your pets, especially your dogs! I have a spacious home where your pet can feel free to roam and rest. I also have many trails I can take them on walks. There is also a spacious park area where we can play around if that's what your dog prefers! If I am coming to your home, I am more than happy to walk them short or long distances, play with them, or tend to any other pet needs!

About: I'm a dog lover dedicated to providing top-notch care and fun-filled adventures for furry friends. I'm experienced with all kinds of dogs and cats. I am ready to feed them and give them lots of love and care. I've been working at a dog daycare, so I have hands-on experience caring for pups in a group setting, as well as one on one. I'm excited to meet new furry friends. I'm available every morning and evening for walks and visits. I'm available all day on weekends. I would love to hang out with furry friends. I keep everything clean. I always replace water bowls with fresh water and feed any pets. I love to take dogs on walks or cuddle and play with them. I treat all pets as my own.

“Becca was really responsive and kind. She looked after my cat on very short notice and did a wonderful job! Thank you, Becca!”

“Aury has been so attentive and caring for my cats this past year. I am relocating for work and truly wish I could move her with me! I never had to worry when I left town because she always took such good care of my cats and sent me tons of photos and videos. 100/10 recommend, Aury is the best!”

About: I am a Special Education teacher who works at a Therapeutic School by day and an animal lover all day and night. I do not have kids but I have 3 cats and babysit my friends and families fur babies any chance I get. Pets have free range of my home, they can relax on the couch, chair and bed whenever they want. I have experience watching dogs from pups-elderly. I volunteer at a local animal rescue in Palatine and bring in therapy dogs to visit my classroom. I rescued and adopted a deaf kitty with one eye, and I've always had animals in my home. I am a non-smoker and vegan (vegans really do love animals). For any overnight/weekend stays, I will be home and available to play, go for lots of walks and hangout all weekend long with your fur baby. Regular walks, feedings, playtime and relaxation based on your dogs needs is my priority. I have three loving cats who will keep your dog company. I have a small backyard that is away from cars/traffic and a large front yard. I have a dog tie out and spiral stake for dogs that want to roam around my unfenced front and/or backyard. Playdates with neighboring dogs is always an option or solo, quiet time if they prefer. I can keep your pet on their walking/feeding/play/sleep schedule as you request.

“Jill was wonderful - I truly felt our dogs were in great hands!!”

About: It all started when I was 5 and my sister and I convinced our animal loving parents to add to our family, we got a golden retriever puppy and a kitten in the same year. I have never lived a day without a pet in 35 years! I have open availability. I have 2 smaller dogs and a parrot. I live in a nice, quiet neighborhood perfect for walking furry friends. Ricky and Lucy (cavapoos) love a good slumber party :) I do not have a fenced in yard. My pups know the perimeters. I do take leashed potty breaks and walks with pup visitors. I am familiar with "runners" and an capable of making sure that doesn't happen!

“Allison did an amazing job start to finish! She was responsive to our inquiry (on short notice) and was thorough preparing for her visits. Our kitty Noodle took to her right away and I knew in the moment it was going to great! I appreciated the updates and all the pictures! I would highly recommend Allison and I would definitely request her again in the future!”

“Nadia was great! Very friendly and took excellent care of Mochi and Roxy while we were out of town! I would highly recommend her! She’s reliable and always left good feedback for us. We will definitely use her again.”

Gail E.

“We were so lucky to find Kaitlyn! She responded quickly and was able to take on the job with very short notice, which we really appreciated. From the start, her communication was incredible—she sent detailed updates every visit along with adorable photos and videos that gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Not only did she take great care of our cats, but she also went above and beyond by bringing in our packages and even cleaning up without us asking. It’s rare to find someone so thoughtful and thorough. We’ll absolutely be using Kaitlyn again and couldn’t recommend her more!”

About: I have a 5 acres property. 1 acre fenced in so dogs have a safe space to run and play. It is a little dog vacation paradise. I love animals and love helping others. I am home full time to care for your pets like they are our own. I am excited to take care of them while you are away. I love playing with the dogs and going then a vacation of their own. My property has paths through it and has lots of space.

About: My name is Katherine and I have large history of taking care of all types of dogs and cats. I’ve taken care of small, large, seniors, puppies, non-trained and even dogs that require medication, you name it! From a young age, my parents owned a pet sitting business called Fetch Pet Care and I would always love to help by walking, playing, and eventually learning to train some pooches! I have had about 7 years of total experience taking care of animals and using Rover.com! In 2021 I started my Bachelors in Physical Therapy and have been in school since. I now have a break for the summer and am eager to get back into my passion, which is taking care of pets! In my home, I have a cat named Mocha who has a bit of a medical history. in 2023 of January he was diagnosed with FIP (Feline Infectious Peritonitis). My fiancee and I decided to invest into a medicine called GS to save his life. After 90 days straight of injections, he is now cured and healthy. With that being said, I am able to administer any kind of medicine (orally or injectables) if needed for your pet. I am also able to train dogs at a basic level (teaching commands, potty training), as well as how to roll over, high-five or paw, etc. Being with animals is like therapy to me, I just love spending time with them. I go above and beyond to make sure your dog/cat has a relaxing and fun time! Since it is the summer time for me and I am currently not in school, my schedule is flexible and open for the next few months. There are many things to keep in mind when it comes to taking care of your beloved animals. A typical day with a dog involves walks, playtime, feeding time and resting periods. Based on what kind of exercise your dog needs, I am able to fit into any type of routine. If the dog needs an easy-going, normal walk with lots of potty stops, I would accompany that. If the dog requires lots of exercise and needs to go on a run, I am also able to do that. Health and Safety is crucial when it comes to taking care of animals. If the pet needs to have medicine administered I am able to present that as I have previous experience taking care of animals that need extra care and medicine. I would monitor your pet at all times and make sure it is living in a clean environment.

About: I've spent my entire life around pets and animals and have pet sat for a lot of family and friends before. I always have loved spending time with animals and taking care of them. My family has raised a Lab, Goldendoodle, and a German Shepard, we are all pet lovers and are all very caring. I'm available all nights and weekends, on weekdays I have a flexible school schedule that allows me to be home multiple times per day. I am a senior about to graduate so I am taking a small amount of classes. I am very attentive to the pets I have cared for in the past, as well as my current pets. I keep to a schedule for feeding, walking, play time, and letting the pets out multiple times a day. This helps keep things organized and routine. I make sure all is well and keep communicating with their owners. Sending photos and videos to ensure your pet is having a good time.
