Krystal was absolutely amazing! We have 2 dogs between 50-60 lbs each. We were gone for a week during the coldest time and Krystal was fantastic. She was able to walk dogs an hour each day and always sent updates about the weather, how they were doing, and feedback on the walks. She also sent pictures. She was great at very communication and really understand dogs and their behaviors. I highly highly recommend her.

About: I work from home, so I am able to walk my own dogs 2-3 miles a day. I know how much they enjoy it and would love to be able to help others out that are not able to walk their pets as much as they would like. I frequently go on walks and runs multiple times a day, so adding a four-legged friend to my walking would be perfect. My work schedule is very flexible so I’m able to move things around as needed. I do not currently care for other pets in my home. I have 3 Siberian Huskies all under the age of 5 so it’s already a full house!

Sam has been an absolutely terrific dog walker for Kyra. This is my first time using Rover, and so far, Sam has beyond exceeded any expectations I had for a new dog walker. She communicates well, sends photos and updates daily, always gives treats, and even refills Kyra’s water bowl if needed. Kyra has been so happy having Sam come to visit while I’m at work and I would certainly recommend Sam to anyone seeking a trustworthy, reliable dog walker.

This is my second dog that Brittany and Branson have cared for. This time it is a very energetic Cavapoo named Wyatt. Brittany is always prompt, notified me of any concerns and leaves a full update of her visit and a few pictures. Wyatt is always in a great mood when I come home and obviously was well cared for and had some fun too!!! Couldn't be happier with his care!!

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life, and caring for them comes naturally to me. For the past 8 years, I’ve been the proud pet parent of two wonderful dogs who are a big part of my daily routine—I play with them, make sure they get plenty of exercise, feed them nutritious meals, and, most importantly, give them lots of love and attention. In addition to caring for my own dogs, I’ve also volunteered with a local rescue organization, helping homeless puppies find loving homes. I’ve fostered dogs and kittens in need, giving them a safe and nurturing environment while they wait for their forever families. This hands-on experience has taught me how to handle a wide range of temperaments and needs with patience and compassion. I’m available on weekends and most holidays, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your pup, including visits to your home if needed. During the week, I work a regular 8–5 job, but I make time in my schedule to provide consistent care. I can stop by for potty breaks and walks in the morning before work, around lunchtime (around noon) if needed, and again in the evening after 5 PM. Your dog’s comfort and routine are important to me, and I’m happy to work with you to make sure they get the attention, exercise, and love they need throughout the day. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for any pet—whether it’s in my home or yours. In my own home, I maintain a clean, pet-friendly environment with secure spaces where dogs can play, relax, and feel comfortable. I’m always mindful of keeping anything unsafe (like cords, small objects, or toxic foods) out of reach, and I never leave pets unattended in risky situations. When caring for a client’s dog, I follow their routine closely and keep communication open with regular updates, photos, and messages so you always know how your pup is doing. I take the time to get to know each dog’s personality, needs, and boundaries to make sure they feel safe and loved. Whether we’re on a walk, having playtime, or just cuddling, your dog’s well-being is always my focus.

About: Growing up I lived in the country with cows, horses and chickens next door. We always had many cats and dogs because we had the space and they just knew we would take them in if they didn't have a home. I wish I had the space now to have more animals but since I dont, it would be an honor to take care of yours. My experience with animals would be having a cat that needed shots daily for diabetes, a blind dog, dog that had seizures, taking care of friends and family's pets. Some which needed daily medicine or had a lot of energy : ). I ppreciate the trust they have in me to take care of their fur family members. Each pet, like humans, have their own personality.

About: I have taken care of all types of animals, from basic to exotic, since I was 15. I have 2 years of experience taking care of pets for just family and friends and 4 years of taking care of pets for other people :) I have plenty of time to take care of your pets!! I can do anything from pet sitting, to stopping by to let pets out or feed them! I also love taking walks and going on jogs, so bring your pet along with me would be amazing!! I am more than happy to take care of pets in your home! I have a large house, but not much of a backyard, as well as roommates, so boarding in my home may be slightly less likely, but still an option!

About: I got my first dog when I was only 6 years old, since then, I care about all the dogs so much & help my family & my friends with their dogs, cats or any other animals - even horses - they need help with. I can help with puppies & seniors, I can care about them in health & sickness. My dogs are my children, they are my family. I spoil all my babies from playing in the pool or giving them a ride in a special pet stroller - & spoil them to death. I have 1/4 acre, almost fully fenced yard, but I also have invisible fence. Plenty toys & my dog to keep company & play with. I have mini pool to cool them off & pet stroller if they are tired or too old to walk. You need just bring your baby & the food & I will provide love, care & everything else they need. I work 2-3 days a week for only few hours. Sometimes I help with my grandchildren or I need to run out for an hour to do extra special chores to care about other animals. Besides this, I am always home. I enjoy playing & cuddling with dogs & cats, they are the best friens & family. If I am at your house - your rules, if we are at my house - also your rules but my little guests are always allowed to be on my sofa or sleep on my bed.

About: I have never been without animals, immediately family, extended family, while I was growing up I have been around dogs. I have dog sat, cat sat, and even stayed at their house to give the animals company as they need it! I’m available for days and overnights, my schedule is flexible. I teach swimming lessons 3 days a week, equaling about 15 hours, 4-8 on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays. If you ask me to crate your dog when I leave the house, I will do just that. Usually a list is left so I know just what your furry baby or babies need, rather it be for treats or care. I will keep to their feeding schedule and potty schedule, as well as their sleep schedule. Always remembering to give them lots of love and affection!

About: I’ve had dogs around all my life. I started helping take care of and learned the responsibilities of owning a pet at 5. I also have experience pet sitting for neighbors (cats, dogs, sugar gliders, turtle). I currently am searching for a job but just finished my undergraduate program at UIUC this spring and have open availability as of right now. I’m extremely detail oriented and will follow the routine of the pet. I am currently not able to house any pets currently due to having a dog at home.

About: I can’t remember a time that I didn’t have a pet. Whether that be, dogs, cats, bunnies, fish, turtles, ducks and even a tortoise. I have always had a furry friend to take care of. Now as an adult I have 2 big ol’ dogs and 2 cats of my own that keep me on my toes. I have a lot of experience with puppies, kittens, elderly animals and also have experience with providing medication to pets including having to give insulin to diabetic fur babies. I’d love to meet you and your pet(s) and help you with whatever needs they may have! I have a lot of free time these days but also have a 6 year old daughter that takes up some of that time. I am more than willing to allocate most of the remaining time to helping you and your family. I have two high energy dogs with a big fenced in back yard and lots of room to run around. I also have a very big neighborhood that is perfect for long walks.

About: I have been working with dogs for nearly 5 years now. From wild puppies to older couch potatoes, I love them all. I have tons of experience with dogs that may need extra care, such as special behavioral or medical needs! No size or breed will scare me, for I have handled them all! Currently I am working part-time, therefore I have much time on my hands. In my free time I volunteer at the humane society in Janesville, WI, particularly the Dog Day Out program. No matter if you need a dog walker or babysitter, I have the availability for both! In order to keep the dog as happy as possible while their family is away, I prefer to visit my clients house. That way the animal is used to their own space. This ultimately reduces stress for everyone!

About: I've had dogs since I was 10 years old. I grew up with them. I currently have a very energetic 3 year old female boxer name Parker and a 9 month old mix who would love some company! I am currently working from home full time. So I am home all day. Your pet would have my full attention. No need to worry! My dogs had free range of the house. We also have a dog park that we frequently visit with 7 minutes of our home. Which is in a gated community.

About: With four years of summer experience at an animal shelter and a lifetime of volunteering, I've dedicated myself to caring for animals. My love for animals began as soon as I was old enough to volunteer, and I have a deep passion for ensuring their well-being. While I adore cats, I have a huge heart for dogs as well. I'm committed to providing a safe, loving, and fun environment for your pets. I am a college athlete. Which can make my schedule busy at times, but I love caring for animals and it is truly my passion. I have classes during the morning into early afternoon times depend on the day, but ultimately I will not have more than five consecutive hours of class for one day. I have practice at night time for 3 to 4 hours on certain days. Although I have a busy schedule, I can assure that your pet will be taken wonderful care of as I spend most of my time at home while not at class or practice. Whether caring for pets in my own home or in a client's, my top priorities are their safety, comfort, and happiness. I ensure the environment is free of hazards and tailor my care to meet each pet's individual needs, maintaining their regular feeding, walking, and playtime schedules. I provide plenty of affection and positive interaction, keeping their spaces clean and tidy, and maintain open communication with pet owners, offering updates and photos to ensure peace of mind. For in-home care, I respect the client's home and follow their specific instructions, ensuring their pet feels secure and loved.

Stacy was wonderful with our pug, Brutus, who is 1 1/2. He is full of energy and likes one on one attention. She gave him full attention and was tired when we came home. Small miracle!. Thank you so much for loving our Brutus like he was yours. He is our baby and we trust him completely with Stacy.

I had to go out of town for a work training and needed someone I knew and trusted to look after my cat Gordon while I was away. She did a great job and sent me some pictures of them hanging out together that reinforced that I made the right decision.

About: I’ve had dogs around all my life. I started helping take care of and learned the responsibilities of owning a pet at 5. I also have experience pet sitting for neighbors (cats, dogs, sugar gliders, turtle). I currently am searching for a job but just finished my undergraduate program at UIUC this spring and have open availability as of right now. I’m extremely detail oriented and will follow the routine of the pet. I am currently not able to house any pets currently due to having a dog at home.

I can't recommend Brittany enough as a pet caretaker! She is responsible, caring, and truly loves every animal she has had, especially when taking care of my lizard. 5 STARS!

About: I can’t remember a time that I didn’t have a pet. Whether that be, dogs, cats, bunnies, fish, turtles, ducks and even a tortoise. I have always had a furry friend to take care of. Now as an adult I have 2 big ol’ dogs and 2 cats of my own that keep me on my toes. I have a lot of experience with puppies, kittens, elderly animals and also have experience with providing medication to pets including having to give insulin to diabetic fur babies. I’d love to meet you and your pet(s) and help you with whatever needs they may have! I have a lot of free time these days but also have a 6 year old daughter that takes up some of that time. I am more than willing to allocate most of the remaining time to helping you and your family. I have two high energy dogs with a big fenced in back yard and lots of room to run around. I also have a very big neighborhood that is perfect for long walks.

Abigail is an experienced dog sitter who has worked with a variety of dogs ranging from mixed breeds to Boston Terriers to Cane Corsos. She is extremely reliable, skilled, loving and patient and understands that dogs have a wide range of personalities and fears. I highly recommend her as a pet sitter.

About: I've had dogs since I was 10 years old. I grew up with them. I currently have a very energetic 3 year old female boxer name Parker and a 9 month old mix who would love some company! I am currently working from home full time. So I am home all day. Your pet would have my full attention. No need to worry! My dogs had free range of the house. We also have a dog park that we frequently visit with 7 minutes of our home. Which is in a gated community.

Sammy grew up volunteering in animal shelters so she has a lot of experience caring for animals. She has a love for all animals. She treats her pets like they are her kids. She is my number 1 phone call to take care of my dogs and cats when I go out of town.
