“We are very pleased with our first drop in with Jackie. Our dog is very anxious around all people and Jackie understood Nabi’s special needs, was on time and very communicative! We will be requesting more drop-ins with Jackie!”


“Coleen was prompt, considerate, and took awesome care of my two shy cats. First experience with Rover, and Coleen's impressive care was a great intro to this service.”


“As a new dog dad and learning as I go finding a sitter has been so nerve racking. Getting in contact with Robert was a life saver. Was very communicative, respectful of my space. My tiny puppy seems to love him. Made me feel comfortable through the visits and shared some cute pics of my fur baby. Would highly recommend and will be booking with him again soon.”


“I couldn’t be happier with the care my cat received while I was away. She was incredibly professional, punctual, and responsible. I felt completely at ease knowing my cat was in such good hands. Communication was great throughout, and it was clear my cat was comfortable and well looked after. Highly recommend!”


“Jillian was very responsive, friendly, and attentive during her drop-in visits with our cats. We needed a last-minute holiday Rover and Jillian took time to stop by before we left to meet the cats and learn about their needs. She sent great pictures and updates, and followed all of our requests perfectly.”


“Jose has been a fabulous choice for a drop in sitter for two of our dogs. We have 1 troubled dog who is fearful and can get aggressive. Jose did 1 meet and greet, then we did an assisted paid visit which worked out wonderfully. He was patient, and worked with us as he got to know our troubled dog. 10 stars if I could for customer service alone! Book Jose ASAP for all your pet needs.”



“Kathleen is so kind, attentive, and responsive, and I’m SO glad we found her! She is now my go-to sitter for my cat when I am out of town. Most recently my cat was a bit sick right before I left, but Kathleen put me at ease with her detailed updates and photos. Thank you, Kathleen!!”


“So sweet and dependable!!! 10/10 would recommend! She came at a short notice and was very responsive and professional. If you need a sitter who is a real animal lover and reliable please book with Miriam!”



“Camille did drop-in visits for my cat. She was excellent. I appreciated that she kept his litterbox clean and sent several photos daily. I highly recommend Camille and will use her again.”



“Sydney has cared for our two large and energetic for three years, and is the best! She started with our second when he was just a puppy, she is loving yet firm and the dogs are so well behaved for her! They look forward to her drop in visits and are so tired out after them they sleep all day. We would highly recommend Sydney!”


About: Hello pet parents! I'm Tori and I have been providing pet care since I was a young girl. I have always felt a connection with animals and it brings me absolute joy to take care of them. There has never been a time in my life where I did not have a pet of my own, so I know how precious they are and how they become a part of your family. I have three years of housesitting experience under my belt. Between a cozy home with two young cats to a full house of two dogs and 12 cats, I have quite a bit of experience in this service. I made sure to feed, water, let the pets out for potty breaks, change litter boxes and take the dogs on walks. I am also more than happy to gather mail, newspapers and packages during my stay. I do believe it is important to provide pets with companionship while their beloved humans are away. Plus it's also nice to have cuddles from some furry friends! I have also been providing drop-in visits since I was a little girl. I first started out watching my neighbor's giant cats and going over two times a day to feed them and give medication to one of the hefty felines. I've also had the opportunity to care for three dogs, one being a senior canine with health issues. I had to administer his medication three times a day and give him eyedrops for his bad eye. I also had a recurring job where I took care of two gentle giants. I had to let the English Mastiffs out for a potty break three times a day, feed once, change their water (because of the drool!), and gathered the family's mail for them. I am currently looking for a new job but in the meantime, I am looking forward to spending time with some new furry friends. I should be available most weekdays and varying weekends. When taking care of the pet at the client's home, I take extra care in making sure that windows and doors are properly secured when I come and go. I also make sure to do a walk through (where I am permitted) to double check if there were any messes made by the pet, both for their safety and to maintain the integrity of the home.

About: Hi! My name is Kimberly😊 I’ve spent my life caring for animals, and I have always been an animal lover. So they definitely hold a special place in my heart! Most importantly, I am an animal advocate! I have had many animals growing up such as: birds, amphibians, chickens, rabbits, and dogs. Recently, I fostered a kitten that I rescued from the streets for 2 weeks until I was able to find him his forever home through the animal shelter I work at. I currently provide loving attention to a senior Chihuahua named Cookie that my family has and my young Pomeranian named Cielo. With a background in Animal Sciences (Bachelor’s degree), I possess a solid foundation in animal welfare and behavior. In addition to my personal experience, I work at an animal shelter (ACL in Oak Park) as an Adoption Counselor, where I help match animals with their forever homes. My expertise includes basic training and handling pets of all sizes, ensuring your pet receives the highest level of care, whether they’re young, senior, or anywhere in between. Pet care fits seamlessly into my routine as I work four days a week, leaving me with Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursday mornings, and Saturdays to offer my full attention and care to your pet. I can possibly do other week days but it would have to be after work (later in the evening). I’m flexible and committed to providing reliable, dedicated care! My approach to caring for pets in my client’s home is flexible and tailored to their specific needs. I ensure to follow any special instructions or routines provided by the pet owner. I offer plenty of socialization time to keep pets engaged and mentally stimulated. For dogs, I incorporate fun, light training sessions and ensure they get the necessary walks while adhering to their schedule. I always keep treats handy for redirection if needed. When outdoors, I make sure all doors and gates are securely closed and closely monitor the pets to ensure their safety. My goal is to provide a safe, enriching, and loving environment for your pets.

“Marisa is an amazing sitter! She made sure to confirm all instructions before watching my cat for the weekend, and stayed to comfort her when she was a little scared and made her feel loved. I look forward to booking her again in the future.”

Tori M.

“I have known Tori for a few years now. We were introduced when she cared for my neighbor’s 2 dogs and 11 cats while they went on vacation. I would check in on Tori from time to time to see how she was doing and ask if there was anything I could help with. She always had everything under control and did a great job meeting the needs of all the animals. So when I was called out of town, I didn't hesitate to reach out to Tori and ask her to sit for my two cats. It gave me great peace of mind knowing that, in my absence, my cats we're being cared for by someone who was both capable and dependable. If you are looking for a pet sitter, I highly recommend Tori.”


Kimberly U.
