“Jacob was fantastic!! He took care of my daughters and my dogs during my daughter’s wedding. He took the time to meet them prior and sent photos along the way to let us know how they were doing!! I can’t that him enough for taking such great care of our fur babies and allowing us to be worry free on this very special day!!”

“Lauren recently stayed at our home from Thursday through Sunday to care for our dog, and we couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. From the start, she was highly communicative and dependable, keeping us updated regularly with thoughtful messages and photos of our dog throughout the day. It gave us great peace of mind knowing our pet was in such capable and caring hands. We returned to a well-kept home—clean, orderly, and exactly as we left it—which speaks volumes to Lauren’s respect and attention to detail. Most importantly, our dog was clearly well cared for, happy, and relaxed. We truly appreciated the level of care and professionalism Lauren brought to the role, and we would gladly welcome her back anytime. Highly recommend!”

About: I have had pets in my life since I was little. Cats, dogs, bunnies, Guinea pigs, hamsters, and all have varied in age. I have pet sat for families who have snakes, geckos, cats with diabetes, all of which I have successfully taken care of. I have a pretty flexible schedule, and have been at other house 8+ hours a day. I even dog sat for a family for 8 weeks! Animals are a very important part of my life, and I will love yours just as much as my own:) I work part time at the moment and only nanny 2 days a week, both of which have flexible schedules perfect for the attention needed for the pets. At home we have an invisible fence for our dog to keep her safe and secure, but also to run free in the yard. I take her on 20-40 minute walks everyday to give her the exercise she needs. I spend time with my cats pretty much all day long, and do their cat litter twice a day! Whatever you need done for your pets, I'm your girl!

“Emma did a great job with our 4 dogs! She managed all their different personalities and followed our directions. She was very responsive and caring. We will book with her again.”

Diana B.

“Virginia was very responsive and such an excellent friend to our Jack. She was respectful of our home and left it looking nicer than we left it for her! Will definitely rebook! Thank you!”

Lindsey B.

“Mandi did a great job house sitting for my dog. She's so friendly and was easy to communicate with. I was so happy I found her!”

Kelly B.

“Grace was great with Angel. She followed instructions and was flexible when I had flight delays. I would have loved more pictures but doggy and house were well cared for when I returned. I would book Grace again.”

About: We’ve provided care for both our own and others' pets since we were children. Family, friends, and neighbors have trusted us to feed, water, play with, walk, and board their pets when they travel. Having lived both in the country and in town, we have both loved and cared for our own and others' cats and dogs for several years in several environments. We both have flexible working schedules, especially in the summer. We have plenty of time to devote to your beloved pet and are used to juggling multiple tasks. My husband and I live in a three bedroom house in Carol Stream, just outside Wheaton. We have a large yard with a 3-sided fence in which pets would be very safe with proper supervision. Pets would be welcome to lay and sleep wherever they are most comfortable - on our furniture, in one of our two beds, or in their own beds or crates. We are animal lovers and have had our own animals in our home. We have welcomed many a new pet into our home, so your pet would receive our love and care while staying at our home.

About: I grew up in a family of animal lovers—cats, dogs, birds, even pet cows, turtles, chickens, hermit crabs, and more! Pets have always been family to us, and they were deeply loved and cared for. I’ve been caring for animals my whole life and still do occasional pet sitting. Now, I’m excited to offer my care through Rover! I’ll go any length to keep your pets happy—whether that means giving baths, going on long walks, or showering them with love and plenty of pets. I’d love to treat your pets like the family they are—because they deserve the very best. I’m a part-time college student who also works and babysits, so pet sitting is the perfect flexible gig for me! My schedule changes week to week, but I’m available for morning, afternoon, or evening visits most days, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine. I can do drop-ins, walks, feedings, baths, playtime, and give your pets all the love and attention they deserve. Weekends and some overnights are also available with notice—just reach out, and I’ll do my best to fit your needs! When caring for your pet, I’ll treat them like one of my own—with patience, love, and attention to their unique needs. I’ll stick to their routine as closely as possible, whether that means feeding at specific times, going for walks, cleaning up after them, or just giving them extra cuddles and playtime. I make sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away. My goal is to give your pet not just care, but genuine companionship and kindness every visit.

About: I have been around dogs my entire life and have had a family dog for 8 years now. I have experience with many different types of dogs. I am very passionate about the behavior, training, and care of dogs and would treat a client’s dog as if they were my own. I am currently free the entire week, daily, to be able to take care of pets! From morning to night, everyday, Monday to Friday, as well as weekends. In a client’s home I would follow exact instructions of care and any care preferences of the pet parent as to ensure quality care for the pet.

About: Hi, I’m Ryan a lifelong pet lover with 4 cats, 1 dog, and years of hands-on experience! Your pets will be treated like family with me because that’s exactly how I treat my own.

I’m working as a part time contractor right now with a flexible schedule. I’m available mornings, evenings, and nights to work around your pets needs. As someone who lives with 4 cats and a dog, I understand how important it is to provide a calm, secure, and pet-friendly environment.

About: Hi! I’ve been helping take care of dogs my entire life. I raised my own dogs since they were puppies all the way up until they went over the rainbow bridge at the ages at 15. I am a certified dog groomer and have worked for an animal hospital as well. I have been pet sitting for over 10 years and have experience with all ages, sizes, breeds and temperaments. I know how to administer medication and monitor for health issues. I like to be communicative with owners during my visits including sending photos of their pets throughout the day. I like to send the owners a summary of my visit at the end of my stay. I have open availability and like to make accommodations as much and as easy as possible for owners. Feel free to contact me at anytime! I like to be very attentive in all aspects of a dog’s life. I like to make sure all dietary requirements are met. Also if necessary all medications or supplements are given correctly.

About: Hello! I’m Zack. I spend most my time with my dogs. I currently have 2 dogs, Cow and Cozmo. They are Large mixed Breeds. I’ve only ever had large dogs, but I love all Animals, big and small. I even went to Vet Tech school for a short amount of time. If you request me to care for your doggo’s then I promise to give them as much love and affection as possible until you get back. I look forward to meeting all your furry friends. I currently don’t work so I have plenty of time on my hands. I can get there early and stay as long as needed. The only days I cannot work are the weekends. So if your pet gets lonely while you’re at work, I can stop by to walk them and play with them. Currently, I take Cow on walk around a lake. I make sure to bring water and a small water bowl to keep him hydrated. I also use a collar but I know that some dogs do better with harnesses. He goes on long walks but if that’s not your dogs thing, then i can go on short walks too. I always carry little baggies incase he needs to use the restroom. I also make sure to feed him special wet food in his diet to help his tummy. One of our previous dogs had to take medications for her hips. So if your dog takes medication, I can wrap it in peanut butter or cheese (or both) so they think they’re getting a very tasty treat. Also if your dog likes to run around I can always run with them or I if they like to relax and get pet, then thats okay too.
