“Katherine was fantastic. She was on time and asked all the necessary questions before to make sure my dogs were properly taken care of. Most importantly she is a trustworthy person to have inside your home.”
“Toni was great! Super communicative and helpful while we were out. We appreciate her for helping us on such short notice. My cats were so loved they barely noticed we were gone lol. Definitely recommend!!”
“Melissa was super flexible and accommodating! She took such great care of my puppy & put my mind at ease by providing me updates during the check-in! She always had her own backup supplies just in case!”
“Gregory took amazing care of our cat. Great communication and thorough check-ins. Our kitty is usually a little upset with us after returning from travel, but this time he was his usual happy self. Gregory provided him with enough love and scratches until we returned. We're so grateful and hope to hire Gregory again in the future!”
“Kelera has been walking and checking in on Zoey and Zaya twice a week now. She is punctual, friendly, and caring for my fur babies. If you are looking for someone reliable and someone who will treat your fur babies as their own-then look no further and book with Kelera.”
About: Tail-wagging care you can count on! I have 20 years of pet sitting experience with a wide range of pet personalities and temperaments and 25 years of loving my own fur babies as well. I specialize in pup care (housetraining, play based development, walk adventures), senior pet care (gentle handling, mobility support, medication administration), and special needs and rescue animals (with an understanding of anxiety, therapeutic support, and slow-trust building). I treat every pet like my own—with kindness, reliability, and plenty of playtime, walks, and cuddles. You can relax knowing your pet is not only safe, but genuinely cared for. :) I'm currently working part time from home so I prioritize caring for your pet with the same attention I gave to my own pets - making sure they’re happy, healthy, and safe while you're away. I have a fenced yard and an animal-friendly home. Currently there are no other pets in the home because my three fur babies have since passed on after 15-17 years of life. I now have two children (my daughter is 7, and my son is 4) who love animals and are very gentle and caring. If your pet doesn't prefer children, please let me know and I wouldn't bring them with me to care for your pet. :)
About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember! I’ve been caring for them since childhood and have gained extensive experience working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I spent two years working at an animal shelter, where I handled everything from socializing shy rescues to assisting with basic training and care for high-energy pups. In addition to my shelter experience, I’ve cared for senior dogs, puppies, and dogs with special needs, including those with mobility issues and anxiety. I also offer boarding, walking, and drop-in visits, ensuring that every pup in my care gets the love, attention, and exercise they need. Whether it’s a cuddle session, a long walk, or playtime, I’m dedicated to making dogs feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. 🚨🚨🚨 PLEASE READ BEFORE BOOKING 🚨🚨🚨 To see your pup featured, follow me on Instagram: @mani_thedogsitter 🐶📸 Weekday Availability: I work full-time but have the flexibility to check on your pets during my lunch breaks. If your pup needs a midday potty break, meal, or some quick love and attention, I’m happy to help! Weekend Availability: I'm fully available on weekends and love to include dogs in my plans whenever possible! Whether it’s a relaxing day at home, a walk in the park, or an outing, I strive to make their stay fun and engaging. Potty Training Requirement: Dogs must be potty trained. If your pup is prone to accidents, please provide diapers to keep them comfortable and clean. What to Bring for Your Dog’s Stay: To make sure your pet feels right at home, please pack the following essentials: 🐾 Food & Treats (optional): Enough for their entire stay. 🐾 Food & Water Bowls: To maintain their routine. 🐾 Collar/Harness & Leash: For safe walks and outdoor fun. 🐾 Emergency Contact Info: Just in case of any unexpected needs. 🐾 Daily Routine Overview: Let me know their habits and preferences. 🐾 Medications (if needed): Clearly labeled with instructions. 🐾 Bedding or Blanket (optional): A cozy, familiar scent helps them relax. 🐾 Dog Crate (optional but recommended): For security and comfort. 🐾 Poop Bags (optional): Helps keep the yard clean. 🐾 Favorite Toys (optional): Something comforting from home. Your pup’s happiness and well-being are my top priorities! If you have any special requests or concerns, feel free to reach out. Looking forward to welcoming your furry friend! 🐕❤️ I have a small yard with a secure chain link setup, providing a safe space for dogs to play and stretch their legs. While my yard is not fully fenced, I always ensure supervised outdoor time to keep your pup safe. Your dog will also have a built-in playmate—my own friendly pup! Having a companion can help ease anxiety and make their stay more fun and engaging. Whether they love to play, lounge, or explore, I create a comfortable, stress-free environment where every dog feels at home. Safety is my top priority, and I’m committed to giving your pet the care and attention they deserve! ❤️🐕
About: I have had and been around dogs since I was a child. Dogs seem to come to me naturally; without fear or hesitation. I honestly believe this is because I approach them with ease and am not forceful. It seemed like a natural step for me to join the Rover community. Ive also been a dog owner and currently have Jazzy who is my beloved Boston Terrier Mix with a big personality and sweet nature. Jazzy and I chose each other and its been an adventure ever since day one! she loves everyone but at times can be a little bossy. I'm well aware of who runs the household! I pride myself on ensuring that Jazzy stays healthy by giving her quality food and treats, Along with that she enjoys her fenced in yard and takes daily walks. We have lots of playtime and cuddles. I'll treat your dog as I would my own. That is my motto as I don't want you to worry or be concerned when you are away from your precious fur baby. I can't replace you, or would never try but rest assured your pet will receive all my tender loving care. I have had the opportunity to care for some dogs on Rover who have become regular clients. The owners have told me that they reach out to me first and hope that I am available. That is a huge compliment and I'm honored that I made such an impact on their four legged friend. All the pets I have met have their own unique personality and what I do as a sitter is simply take them for who they are which includes any little quirks. Canine or human, we all possess them. If you like what you see, let's schedule a meet and greet and see if I'm the right fit for your pet and their needs. Thanks for taking the time to get to know me and read my profile! I work remotely on a part time basis so can be available in the afternoon/evening and do pet sitting on the weekends away from my home. Well I make sure my dog Jazzy is loved and cared for each and every day. I give her good food and healthy treats. Daily walks and preventive meds to keep her healthy and strong.

Over 4 pet parents in Blue Island have booked pet sitting
Blue Island pet parents share their Rover experiences
This was my first time using Rover for my 2 dogs and Keira was Great! From my first request to the time she completed the drop in visits she was very professional. She was prompt with responding to me and extremely polite. I appreciated all the communication with updates and pictures. I will definitely ask Keira to help us again in the future.
This is our second time having Keira care for our cat Bela and we are just as happy if not happier this time (if that's possible)! She is very thorough, caring, clean, friendly and really takes her time playing with our very energetic big fellow! We are very happy with Keira, and highly recommend her, we will definitely request her again! Bela misses her already!
Tara really helped us out by taking care of Monarch when our normal sitter was unavailable and we had a funeral to attend to. Monarch gets a little anxious and jumpy with new people but Tara didn’t give up on him and eventually won him over. Tara took good care of Monarch.
