Pet Sitting in Belvidere

“This was my first time using Rover for my dog, I was a little nervous about my dog not being cared for by family. But Isabel was so kind and friendly. She sent me messages and pictures of my Oliver when I was away. I was so impressed by this service. I know my dog is a handful but he seemed very happy the whole weekend. I will absolutely recommend Isabel!! I hope she is available to help next time I am out of town. Thank you so much Isabel!!!”

“Mariela went above and beyond for my doggy! He was afraid and scared when she came over. She stayed with him and did everything possible to make him comfortable.”

About: Aside from being a dog, horse, and cat mom for over 20 years, I also have 5 years of experience working in a veterinary clinic, 2 years of experience as a dog trainer, and a year of experience working in a dog shelter. I have a wide range of expertise in many areas of animal needs, including animal health and behavior. Currently, I am available during evenings and weekends for pet care, including boarding or sitting for animals that are used to being alone during regular working hours. During summer and spring break I will also have increased availability as I am a teacher. My pets are like my children. They receive the best care as far as feeding, exercise, enrichment, medical care, and training. When I am watching someone else’s pet, I love them like they are my own. I am an animal lover and strive to make sure any animal in my care feels loved and safe.

About: I have had pets as long as I can remember - from the playful puppy all the way through the senior years. My pup, Alice, is a 60 pound sweetheart who enjoys making new puppy friends. My cat, Bubby, keeps to herself most of the time, but is super loving on her terms. I am currently working permanently from home giving me the opportunity to offer a flexible schedule for early drop offs and/or later pickups if necessary. I have a fenced yard and a friendly pup to keep your dog company in your absence. I have one cat as well, but she keeps to herself most of the time.

“Autumn is the best!! She is always dependable and goes above and beyond providing care for our pups. We (including our pups 😊) will always recommend her!”

“Jessica is great with the drop-in visit's while I was out of town! Arrived on-time and sent a card with Blizzard's picture to let me know how he was doing. Would definitely use her again!!”

“It was nice to be away and feel my pets were well cared for. Brandi was timely and sent cute pictures. Everyone was happy when I returned home.”

“Drew was very attentive with my fur babies!! She followed all instructions and was able to adjust when my dog ran to other dogs. She was able to remain calm and wrangle them back in the house. Her communication was superb and I never had to worry about getting ahold of her. 10/10 would recommend!”

Briana M.

“Took great care of our dogs! Very kind and attentive to them. Came over to meet them and get to know them prior to sitting for us.”

Sharon O.

“Emily is great. I can tell she really cares for animals and my dog (and fish) would agree. She’s punctual and shared plenty of picture updates while we were away. I definitely recommend Emily for your pet sitting needs! 😃”

Cristina J.

“Amanda was excellent with my kitties again. Her attention to all the details of the house while she was present is amazing. She has continuously provided top notch service going above and beyond just taking care of the kitties, with keeping an eye on the house as a whole.”

About: I have lots of years of animal care, animal sitting and house sitting. I've walked dogs of all sizes, big, small, etc. I've been doing pet care since I was about 14 years old, and use to house sit for a close friend of mine for years where I would feed the dogs, let them out to use the restroom, and stay to play with them. Now that I've moved to the Rockford area, I'm looking to establish trust, and offer the best care for your fur babies. I work full time, Monday through Friday. I can let animals out for potty breaks and food bowl checks after 6pm CST on the weekdays, or even late evening walks. Otherwise, weekends are completely open for walks, housesitting, and even overnights. I always make sure that your pet is safe, whether you have a fence, crate, or leash to keep them on. Before leaving, I'll make sure that the house is locked up, and that the pet is safe in their crate if needed. I do a quick last check to top off the water, food, and I'll provide plenty of updates if you wish to know how your dog or cat is doing.

“Kelly is an excellent care taker loved my Rex like he was her own! Thank you Kelly!”

About: I have had dogs since I was born. My family has always had a dog. For 18 years, I had my own dogs. I’ve also watched friends and family member’s dogs. I will go to their houses and let their dogs out for them, walk them, etc. I work part time at a local elementary school as a TA. I only work 5.5 hrs a day, so I have plenty of time to take care of your pet. I have a fenced in yard and a 10 year old that would love to play with your dog if I’m not! I can put them in a crate if need be. I’d love to take them for a ride too! If I go to your house, I will respect your property and your dog’s things.

About: Hi there! My name is Lauren. Our pets are an important part of our family but unfortunately they can’t tagalong with us everywhere we go. Have you found yourself passing up opportunities, turning down offers or just having guilt about leaving them cooped up for too many hours? As a former business owner and having two dogs I understand the struggle. I had endless guilt about not spending enough time with my pups. But, you are in luck because you needn't feel guilt anymore. I have a flexible schedule which allows for you to make last-minute trips, on a whim decisions or just simply having a worry free day away from home. I have grown up with cats and dogs all my life. My pups and I have all gone to training classes so, I have a solid understanding of canine behavior in order to keep everyone safe and sound. I work in the health and wellness industry. My position allows for me to create my own schedule which is conducive to caring for all your beloved ones needs. I am super outdoorsy! So, I am familiar with many of our local parks and walking paths. I am always up for a car ride and to go to the park. Please just let me what you feel comfortable with.

“Sam is amazing!! She took great care of my very shy cat while I was away. She kept me updated with pictures and messages each day which gave me so much peace of mind. After just a few visit my cat who hides from everyone was coming out for treats from Sam. I can’t recommend Sam enough!”

Abby G.

“They did a great job taking care of my cat, Erika, who was not very happy about us leaving for a few days. Brittany sent me a picture of Erika each day, even when she was being uncooperative and trying to hide. She was responsive to text messages and kept me updated. I definitely recommend Brittany and Branson!”

Sasha S.

“Lindsey is awesome! She follows our directions with drop ins and always keeps us updated! She send us picture too! 😊 My pups love her and my cat that isn’t the biggest fan of strangers even loved her! Would recommend her over and over again!”

“Taylor was absolutely fantastic! I am very nervous leaving my big German shepherd with anyone (I’m a bit of a helicopter parent) but Taylor got on with him very well! She dropped in on him during a very long day at work for me, gave him a bit of attention and a potty break, and all went smoothly! She communicated quickly when she was with him and even brought in my heavy chewy box of dog food that was delivered! I can’t say how happy I am to have someone that seems to like my big boy and will be able to take care of him when I need. Taylor is awesome!!”
