“Lauren was absolutely amazing watching my dogs for three days! From the moment we connected, she was professional, warm, and incredibly attentive. She kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My dogs were happy, well cared for, and clearly loved on the entire time. She followed all instructions perfectly and treated them like her own. When I returned, everything was clean, organized, and my pups were calm and content — which says everything. It’s not easy trusting someone with your fur babies, but Lauren exceeded every expectation. I would 100% book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable, compassionate care. Thank you, Lauren! 🐾💛”

“If I could give more stars than 5 I would. Sam is the only sitter that my cat trusted enough to come out of hiding. I have a cat with a traumatic history and normally he does not budge from the farthest depths under the bed. I finally can stop worrying about my gentle giant while I am away.”

“Sofia is a very reliable and communicative care gier to my two senior cats when we are away on trips. She takes extra pains to ensure both cats are doing well. One of my cats is extremely skittish. Sofia takes extra time to try to make sure this one also gets fed and is doing well. I strongly recommend her”

“From day one Jim proved to be incredible, professional, caring and attentive to our dog. He kept us updated with regular messages and pictures. What really impressed us is that our dog who tends to be aggressive at times, loved him! Thanks again for your outstanding service, Jim!”

About: Hi! I’m Thais, a reliable and experienced caregiver based in Forest Park. With over 7 years of experience working closely with families, I’m very responsible, attentive, and trustworthy—qualities I bring to every pet I care for. I understand how important it is to leave your pet with someone you can trust, and I treat every dog as if they were my own. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding routines, playtime, and overnight or date-night care. I always follow your pet’s routine closely and provide updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule and am available for evenings, weekends, and last-minute bookings. I’d love to help take care of your pet! Right now, I have a very flexible schedule, which means I can dedicate plenty of time to caring for pets during the week and weekends. Whether it’s early morning walks, mid-day drop-ins, or overnight stays, I’m available to adapt to your pet’s routine. Pet care fits perfectly into my life, I truly enjoy spending time with animals and making them feel happy and loved. I treat every pet as if they were my own and make sure they get the attention, comfort, and exercise they need. When caring for pets in my home, I make sure they are always safe, comfortable, and supervised. I keep a clean, pet-friendly space with no hazards, and I follow each pet’s normal schedule for feeding, walks, and playtime. I always make sure they have fresh water, cozy spots to rest, and lots of love and attention. When I’m in a client’s home, I treat their space and pets with the same respect I would my own. I carefully follow any routines or instructions provided, from walks and meal times to medication or special care needs. My goal is to make every pet feel happy and relaxed while giving owners peace of mind knowing their furry friend is in caring, trustworthy hands.

“Samantha was great with the cats. They let her pet them the first time she met them. She was very understanding of the complex situation I was in to have someone watch my daughter's cats.”

About: I grew up with dogs my entire life, including a German Shepherd, Golden Retriever, and Pitbull mix, so I’m very comfortable with both large and high-energy breeds. I also have experiences with extended stay puppy sitting where I managed feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and creating a calm, structured environment. I understand how important consistency, patience, and attentiveness are, especially with puppies. I’m currently preparing to welcome a Golden Retriever puppy of my own, so I’m very intentional about creating safe, positive experiences for dogs. I work Monday through Friday but my partner is currently home all day, so someone will always be there to care for your dog! We are open to boarding any night. Walks I am primarily available after work or sometimes the morning before. My partner is currently available most anytime! We are both reliable and detail oriented. We are prepping to bring in our very own golden retriever puppy, so will treat your dog as if they are our own! As mentioned above I work Mon-Friday roughy 8-4. My partner is currently home throughout the day so someone will always be there to care for your dog. We are open to boarding almost any day especially weekends where we are both home. Walks and drop ins work best for me before work hours or after but my partner has open availability so between us we can accommodate to you! Feel free to ask if you have any specific availability questions! :) Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I live in a clean, calm, and pet-friendly environment and am very attentive to routines, feeding schedules, and safety during walks and care. I always keep dogs securely leashed on walks, avoid unsafe situations, and closely monitor their behavior and well-being. I understand how important trust is when someone is caring for your dog, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m reliable, respectful of your home, and committed to providing a safe and positive experience. I’m also happy to send regular photo and video updates so you always feel confident and connected while your dog is in my care.

About: Hello I’m Marine I’m a bit new to Rover but that doesn’t reflect my experience. I've been an animal lover for as far back as I can remember, and have cared for my own dogs and cats throughout my life. I have experience dog walking at various shelters, pet sitting, fostering animals, taking my own dog to pet therapy visits at senior centers, and volunteer transporting injured animals to get care through a local response group. I'm familiar with the needs of senior dogs, and feel comfortable administering medication if needed. If you work odd hours or need evening drop in visits or walks I’m your person! There are some weeks I have earlier day time availability as well, it doesn’t hurt to ask. Looking forward to meeting your dog soon! I have reliable transportation to get to you. I look forward to getting to know your dog and making sure they are having fun, getting exercise, and lots of attention! I will take great care to be respectful of your dog and of your home. I look forward to discussing in detail your care instructions and will follow them closely because I like to provide the kind of service I would want for my own pets.

“Kristin went above and beyond taking care of my cats medications while I was traveling. My parents were there as well but cannot manage the medications. They enjoyed Kristin’s company very much and couldn’t say enough nice things about her. She even contacted my vet with questions, which I really appreciated. Kristin stopped over to meet and discuss details before the trip which gave me a lot of peace of mind. She has a great way about her. I highly recommend Kristin.”

“Paulina was very accommodating and patient with our fearful dog. She allowed us to go on our camping trip with the peace of mind that Milo was taken care of. She was very easy to communicate with and sent us frequent updates.”

“Rebecca did an awesome job doing drop in visits for our 3 cats while we were away for a long weekend. We loved getting pics every day and all three were in great spirits when we got home.”

About: I am a lifelong animal lover who recently moved to Wicker Park, and I am eager to provide the same high-level care for your pets that I give my own 3-year-old tuxedo cat, Pepper. Having grown up in a multi-pet household—from dogs and cats to turtles and lizards—I have over a decade of hands-on experience managing different temperaments, energy levels, and specialized needs.I specialize in "Anxiety-Free" care. I know how stressful it can be to leave your home and pets behind, which is why I prioritize clear communication, detailed updates, and a calm, hyper-responsible presence.Previously, I spent a year providing full-time, professional pet and house-sitting services. While I stepped away briefly to focus on completing my Bachelor’s degree, my dedication to animal welfare never stopped. Now that I am settled in Chicago, I am returning to my passion for professional care. Whether it’s a high-energy walk through Wicker Park or an overnight stay to keep your cat company, I treat every pet like family and every home with the utmost respect. Because I am currently dedicated to pet care full-time, I offer a level of flexibility that is hard to find in the city. My schedule is wide open, allowing me to prioritize your pet’s specific routine without rushing. WEEKDAY FREEDOM: I am available for midday walks and drop-ins throughout the week. This is perfect for Wicker Park neighbors who need consistent, reliable care while they are at the office or working remotely. MORNING & EVENING CARE: Whether your pet needs an early 6 AM potty break or a late-night tuck-in, I can accommodate nearly any time frame. OVERNIGHT & HOUSE SITTING: Since I don't have a traditional 9-to-5 commute, I can spend more quality time in your home, providing the companionship and "anxiety-free" environment your pet deserves. LAST-MINUTE REQUESTS: Living right here in the neighborhood with a flexible schedule means I can often help out with short-notice bookings or emergency visits. Your pet’s schedule is my schedule. I am happy to hop on a quick meet-and-get to discuss how my availability can best support your needs! As a lifelong pet owner and experienced sitter, I treat safety as my absolute top priority. I understand that you aren't just trusting me with your pet, but with your home and your peace of mind. Here is how I ensure a safe experience:CITY SAFETY: While walking in Wicker Park, I am hyper-vigilant. I practice "double-check" leash habits, keep a firm grip in high-traffic areas, and am always mindful of sidewalk debris or other reactive dogs. HOME SECURITY: I am meticulous with home entry and exit. I ensure all doors are deadbolted, alarms are set, and keys are stored securely. I treat your home with the same respect I treat my own. HEALTH & WELLNESS: I have a "detective’s eye" for changes in behavior or appetite. Growing up with senior pets taught me that small changes are important signals. I am comfortable following strict medication or dietary needs. PROACTIVE COMMUNICATION: You will never have to wonder how things are going. I provide detailed updates and plenty of photos so you can see exactly how happy and safe your pet is. In any emergency, I am prepared to act quickly and calmly, following your specific vet protocols to ensure the best possible care.

“Judith is awesome! We appreciate her thoughtful handling and skilled care of our pups. Thank you!”

“Ola was a wonderful cat sitter, especially for my older cat who requires special attention and insulin injections. She handled everything with great care and confidence. I truly appreciated her reliability and how comfortable she made me feel knowing my cats were in good hands. Highly recommend! :)”
