Dog Sitting in Bellwood

“Karolly is so wonderful! This is our 2nd time having her over while we were out and she was just as amazing as the last time. She made sure our little Winona got plenty of love and play every day, and she made sure to share lots of pictures and videos of our cat being a cutie. Our personal vacation had some issues but no matter what was happening we knew things were going well at home with Karolly keeping an eye on our sweet girl.”

“James was great. He was able to come on short notice, did a “get acquainted” visit, and everything went well. I’d ask him back when future needs arise.”

Michael N.

“Alexa was great and responsive on short notice!”

“Collette took care of our Val when we were gone for two weeks and a a half! She made sure that Val gets all the love that she needs. She is very responsive to either texts or the rover app. We will definitely use her again. She is Val’s top pick! Thank you so much! You’ll always be our special request.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs for over 12 years — including my own sweet senior German Shepherd, who’s been my loyal companion since she was a pup. I’m comfortable with small, medium to large breeds and well-mannered giants, and I have experience with daily meds, senior care, and reinforcing basic commands. I believe patience, consistency, and love go a long way with any dog. Whether your pup needs a potty break, a solid walk, or just some company and belly rubs, I’ve got you covered. My schedule is currently flexible, and I’m only offering drop-ins and walks so I can give your pet my full attention. I treat every dog like family — because they deserve nothing less. I recently moved back from Denver and currently have full availability for dog drop-ins and walks. Since I’m not juggling another job, I’m flexible for weekdays, weekends, and even last-minute bookings. Your pup gets my full attention every time — whether it’s a quick potty break or some mid-day company and exercise. I know how much trust it takes to let someone care for your dog — they’re family. I’ve had my sweet German Shepherd for 12 years, and through every stage, I’ve learned that what dogs need most is patience, routine, and kindness. Whether it’s giving medication, following your exact instructions, or just making sure they feel safe while you’re away, I’ve got it covered. I’ll treat your home and your pup with the same care and respect I’d want for my own.

“April did a great job feeding my cat. She sent me messages and photos. She also kept me updated. I would like to use her services in the future. Hilda Hoagland”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 7 years old. I’ve raised many puppies and taken care of them into their senior days. I’ve provided pure love, safety, care, and tons of cuddles with many many many doggies. My own throughout my entire life, and for many friends, neighbors, family, and clients. My schedule is pretty open and flexible right now. So I’d have all the time to give your pups all my time and attention. Availability 7 days a week. I have a fenced yard. A safety gate blocking the stairs to the basement so no little doggies that might have trouble slipping on stairs can get to them or the basement. A dogs safety is always my utmost priority.

“Danielle has taken care of our 2 cats and dog for two years every time we leave town. She’s always willing to go above and beyond and water your plants or grab your mail. She sends detailed updates daily/throughout the day, is always so attentive and lets us know if she notices anything abnormal with the animals at all. She’s extremely flexible and works her schedule (even holidays) around taking care of them. Our animals have all come to love her. We couldn’t recommend her more! We’re about to move and will miss having her to take care of our fur babies.”

About: I am very patient with animals getting to know me and understand that not all cats will come out. I have practice with older cats and kittens. I used to have a dog of my own, and play with all of my friends dogs! I am usually availble early weekday mornings before work, and weekday nights after work. I am also available most weekends as long as I know in advance. I want to make sure the pets are comfortable and cared for when their humans aren't around. Fill food and water, scooping litter, playing (if they care for that), sitting around and patiently wait for them to approach me, basically make sure that the pets get what they need!

About: My family and I had a dog named Honey who we loved dearly, but sadly lost in a house fire around two years ago. I love dogs, and I really miss having one around. I thought Rover would be a great way to care for dogs and make some money on the side! I have experience as an emotional support assistant for students with mental disabilities, a role that demands great patience and understanding. I study Mechanical Engineering Asynchronously, and I work as a barista part-time. When I’m not working I’m usually studying, so I thought why not pack up my work and petsit while I study! My academic and professional lives require great attention to detail, so any sets of specific rules/schedules for any pet(s) under my care will be followed diligently!

About: If you don't see many photos of me with my pets, it's because they're the cuties and they deserve their own selfies. (Its also because I forget to take photos instead of videos 😅) I’ve lived with both dogs and cats, so I’m familiar with the basics of daily pet care; feeding, walks, bathroom breaks, litter box cleaning, and keeping things tidy. While I haven’t done professional pet sitting long, I’m dependable, respectful of your space, and genuinely care about keeping your pet comfortable and happy while you’re away. I follow instructions carefully and always do my best to make sure pets feel safe, cared for, and calm in their routine. I'm currently a part-time manager at a clothing store, which gives me a flexible schedule especially in the mornings and early afternoons. I'm not in school right now, so I have more free time during the week and weekends. I love starting my day early and can be available for drop-ins, walks, and check-ins most mornings, with some afternoon and evening availability depending on the day. I’ll always do my best to work around your pet’s routine! Whether I’m caring for pets in your home or mine, I make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and respected. I follow all instructions carefully, keep a clean environment, and pay attention to your pet’s cues and needs. I take time to build trust, especially with shy or nervous pets, and aim to make every visit calm and low-stress. I always treat your home and pets with care as if they were my own.

“I booked Gina for two visits on May 5th. She arrived on time and sent me photos after each visit. I will definitely be booking with her again, in fact I have already done so!”

“Jen is the BEST! She is thorough, detailed and cares 1000% about making sure your pet is being taken care of properly! I feel so comfortable knowing she’s giving my cat some serious TLC when I’m gone. Thank you Jen!!”

About: I’ve had my oldest baby for 10 years now. I love anything animal related! I have 1 dog and two cats currently in my home in Westchester and two more fur babies my parents adopted at home in North Carolina! I’ve been pet sitting for the last 5 years as a side hobby from my dental assisting job. I’ve been a dental assistant for 3 years now and i love it. I am experienced in giving pills to cats and dogs, I’ve volunteered at multiple shelters and veterinary clinics so I know how to handle all sorts of conditions or concerns you might be having with your fur baby. I’m currently working as a dental assistant but am a navy veteran. I served for 4 years, 2 of those in Japan. I’ll talk your ear off if you let me. With my pets at home I LOVE using my cats favorite laser pointer. Even my dog joins in on the chase sometimes 😂 I take my dog on long walk and make sure he wears himself out cause a tired puppy is a happy puppy

“Katie was great! Gave my kitties lots of fun time and made sure to keep them out of trouble when they were trying to get into all the treats. She also brought packages in and made sure that everything was okay at the house. I would definitely recommend her and I will be using her again a few more times over the next month.”

“Lorraine was wonderful! Very easy to communicate with & did great with my dogs!!!!”

Paula K.

“Lauren was fantastic with our senior golden retriever with mobility issues and who required medication. She visited our home for a meet and greet and again for key drop off. She came to our home three times per day and meticulously cared for our family dog while we were gone for 12 days. Lauren was timely with communications and kept us updated on his care providing pictures and dialogue of his daily events. We would highly recommend Lauren for pet sitting with your pet of any abilities. We will definitely be using Lauren again as a dog sitter in the future!”

About: I love dogs. I have had them since I was a child. I have owned a Black Lab, a Yellow Lab, and a Fox terrier. I have also watched, babysat, and lived with multiple breeds, Including a Huskie, a Border Collie, a Chihuahua, amongst a few others. I love everything about dogs. They're loyal, friendly, playful, and just a joy to be around. I have always had a special connection with animals. Being around dogs is simply natural for me. I'm not afraid of a challenge. If it's a dog with mountains of energy, a dog that is shy, or a dog that needs special attention. I also have experience with aggressive breeds. I don't believe words do justice. Let be a part of your life, and show you I have what it takes to care for your special friend. I am a gig worker, so my schedule is open. I am able to work with the pets any time or day of the week. I live in the City, so I take public transit. I do my best to be able to get around, but if it's too far I will let you know before we book. I feed them, walk them, play with them, make sure they have enough attention. The basic things you need to do to take care of an animal.

About: Our house is full of activity! We have two teens, 10 year old, a one year old beagle lab mix and 7 year old shih tzu. We love to have doggie play dates for our pup and take walks.. Currently my new work schedule allows me to be home after the kids are out of school. We are open to dog sitting and boarding and depending on location, I am open to dropping in For short dog walks. Our family has grown to love having dogs around and enjoy including our dogs in our routine. My husband and kids are all active in helping care for our dogs which makes it for a smooth transition no matter who is home. Texting is the preferred method for booking/inquiring.

About: I have had a dog in my family since I was 18 years old and love all types of dogs. I currently have a kitten that I am learning how to raise. I changed careers 8 months ago and have been working at an animal hospital where I have been learning a lot about how to care for people's pets. I currently work full time but I plan to walk dogs and do drop-in visits on my days off, the days I get off work early, and on weekends I would never walk your pets without a leash. I love walks so if your pet requires a longer walk, you can be sure it'll be done. Short walks are nice too. I also currently have my kitten on a feeding schedule and amount so I can follow your pet's feeding needs for drop-in visits . I love all types of pets so I am very excited to keep your pet company when they need it.
