“Melanie was great! She was on-time and have our pups a great, long walk each booking. Ralphie was a little hesitant with her the first walk, but once she picked up his leash he was excited. After that I think they were besties. We got pictures each walk also which was fantastic!”


“Sharon and Mark are amazing! When I did my meet and greet with Sharon she was so nice and sweet and made me feel at ease in my decision to use Rover. I needed help walking my 2 golden retrievers due to my work schedule and Rover, Sharon and Mark have been a godsend. I was able to go to work and not have to worry about them. You are notified when they arrive, and after they are finished. They let you know where they walked, what they did and also sent a picture of them. For anyone that is looking to use Rover and is in the area of Sharon and Mark, I HIGHLY recommend them! I am truly grateful for this service and will use them again.”


About: Hi, I’m Sabrina! I have over 7 years of experience with animals, including time in vet clinics, zoos, and dog daycares. I also did vet assisting for 7 years. I now focus on training, pet sitting, and spending time with animals full-time. I train my Cane Corso in various dog sports using a fair and positive balanced training approach that builds trust, structure, and confidence. I also have chickens, a cat, and a snake — so I’m comfortable with all kinds of pets! Your animals will be safe, loved, and well-cared for with me. I treat every pet like my own and believe play and connection are just as important as routine care. Let me know how I can help! I care for my animals daily—feeding my chickens, handling my snake, and cuddling my cat. I train and do dog sports with my two dogs every day, keeping them active and happy outdoors. I bring the same love, routine, and attention to every pet I care for. I prioritize safety, trust, and comfort when caring for pets, whether in my home or yours. I have a laid-back Cane Corso and a young, energetic hunting prospect GSP, so I’m experienced balancing calm time with fun, engaging activities like scent work. I tailor care to each pet’s needs, providing gentle attention, plenty of exercise, and a secure environment where they feel safe and loved.

With me, your precious furry family members will get the love and care they deserve, and I'll stay in frequent contact with (texts/calls/pics) you about their care. I've been away or on vacation and employed pet sitters in the past, and I know how reassuring that frequent communication is! I am retired and have no strict obligations that would keep me from sticking to any care schedule you need. Over the course of my work life, I've adapted to about every time and day schedule possible - weekends/late nights/early mornings are no problem! I have a reliable two-year old car, and am very experienced using any modern technology necessary if anything unexpected happened (Google Maps/Hailing an Uber/Anything smartphone related, etc) I understand how important it is to meet your expectations regarding the care of your animals and I will do whatever it takes, and I will treat your home with the utmost respect.

About: I have always been involved with pet care since I was a kid. I have twelve years on a farm, eight years at Chicago k9 Rescue, and six years with Spizziri Reptile Rescue. With my years of experience I have administered medications, changed bandages, fed premature pets around the clock, cut nails for cats and pups, bathed them when needed, etc. I also really enjoy building trust with the ones who struggle trusting. I also have knowledge with basic training for resource guarding, potty training, and recall. This fits perfectly with my schedule and allows me to have flexibility. I currently have an open schedule until my school semester starts up again in mid October. There is no one answer for this. I believe this changes depending on pet type, breed, age, health, etc. I will make sure I communicate effectively with each client. Make sure I keep detailed notes for each. I am extremely proactive, so I make sure I cover all my bases when it comes to safety and trust. I will do everything I would want to be done with my babies.

I am now off for the Summer and even though I go back in the fall I work around my online classes. I have 2 dogs of our own and a cat. Realizing they have individual needs and they love the safe space of their own home it is important to me to provide that care that you specifically may need for them. You know this and I have so many that suffer from Anxiety or Seniors that do better in their own homes. That is what I am here for...whether they require so many walks per day or snuggles or play time

Treating others as you would like to be treated is my lifetime motto. Your fur babies will be given caring treatment as if they were my own.

Amparo G.
“Amparo is my number one choice when it comes to pet care for my spicy kitty. He's had behavioral problems since he was a small kitten and Amparo has not only learned how to peacefully interact with him, but they have also created quite the unique and adorable bond. Salem needs extra attention due to overstimulation, meaning he needs you to read his cues. Amparo has done a wonderful job caring for Salem, reading those cues and teaching me a few things along the way.I couldn't ask for a better sitter!”


Savannah W.Star Sitter
“We have used Savannah several times throughout the years when we leave town. She is extremely trustworthy, and we have no problem with allowing her access to our home. She takes very good care of our 2 dogs....which can be a handful...and the dogs are always excited to see her. We highly recommend her as a pet sitter to all of our family and friends.”
