Pet Sitting Cary

“Dorothy was outstanding coming to our house to feed and let out our 2 dogs. She was great with the dogs, responds quickly to questions and sent many photos while we traveled out of state for a wedding. We trusted her and did not worry about our dogs. I would highly recommend her services.”

Beth M.

“Ali took such great care of my boys. She provided thorough updates, sent me lots of pictures, and was very detail oriented looking after my kitties.”

Laurel B.

“Rachael is an excellent pet sitter! She was always very punctual and thorough with her pet care (2 cats and a dog). She was careful to follow my written instructions to keep their schedules as close to normal as possible. Her daily logs about her visits were detailed and fun to read! And lots of cute pictures! She is very sweet and kind and I would not hesitate to ask for her help again!”

“Marcy has been great, we have used her services several times the last few months and have all good things to say. The biggest help is being able to work with the short notices due to my work schedule. Her flexibility has been awesome. My dogs seem to really enjoy her and Marcy has been wonderful to my pups.....”

“I don’t have enough positive things to say about Megan!! She did such a great job with our sweet babies and we had no worries about the safety and security of dogs in her care. We had some issues with our garage door opener (our fault) and Megan was quick to call us and jump through the hoops to get into our house!! We are very grateful for her care and attention to our dogs and when we travel again… we will absolutely reach out to Megan again!! Thank you so much - Margaret & Jim”

“Samantha was great. She was always on time, she played, walked, fed and loved my Daisy. I highly recommend her. She is very sweet and loves animals as if they were her own. I plan on continuing using her services.”

Cindy S.

“Alphonse was accurate in his care details, attentive to our pets and they took to him nicely. Job well done. I'm also glad he asked pertinent questions when necessary. I would definitely request his services again.”

April R.

“Brian was very kind and my shy cat Violet took to him immediately. He was reliable and punctual.”

Karen M.

“We were so lucky to find Kaitlyn! She responded quickly and was able to take on the job with very short notice, which we really appreciated. From the start, her communication was incredible—she sent detailed updates every visit along with adorable photos and videos that gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Not only did she take great care of our cats, but she also went above and beyond by bringing in our packages and even cleaning up without us asking. It’s rare to find someone so thoughtful and thorough. We’ll absolutely be using Kaitlyn again and couldn’t recommend her more!”

About: I love dogs of all shapes and sizes! I had two labs growing up and another lab in my early twenties who I still grieve for today. I currently have no dogs of my own so I pour all my love into my friend’s dogs. The dog I had my twenties had behavioral issues and required patience and understanding in a short amount of time he went from being withdrawn and antisocial to a complete love bug! I’m unemployed but I take care of my disabled mom. Because of this I have a very flexible schedule. I have always loved dogs and miss having one of my own. I’m always excited to spend time with my friend’s dogs. I don’t plan on boarding any dogs at my own home. With how my mom’s health is now it wouldn’t be a good idea to do so.

About: I am 34 years old and I own two dogs. A golden retriever and a Texas heeler. I have owned dogs my whole life and have been a dog sitter since my early teens. I dog sit frequently including overnight in your home or my home and extended care or just daily walks! I am a stay at home mom with open availability! I’m also a super early riser and am available for early morning walks as well! I have a fenced in yard and two friendly dogs. I am an active person and enjoy getting outside and exercising. Your pet will enjoy their time outside with me!

“We had a wonderful experience with Tricia. She lovingly cared for our 2 fur babies. They did well with her.”

Wendy C.

“Thank you Marissa for taking great care of our babies while we were away on short notice!”

About: I've been a lifelong dog lover and currently have a Golden Retriever/Irish Setter who keeps me active with plenty of walks, playtime, and adventures. Caring for my own high energy dog has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and giving each dog the attention they deserve. Whether your pup loves long walks, belly rubs, fetch, or simply having a companion nearby, I'll make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. I treat every dog as if they were my own and strive to provide the same level of care and affection I'd want for my own pet :) I currently work part-time on some weekends in Huntley, IL (Friday–Sunday), but I’m generally very flexible and available during the week! I just ask for a few days’ notice whenever possible so I can make sure I’m able to give your pet the time and attention they deserve. 😊 I’d also love to set up a meet & greet with you and your fur baby before our first visit! It’s a great opportunity for us to get acquainted, learn about your pet’s personality and routine, and make sure they feel comfortable with me. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. While I do have a spacious corner lot with a secure tie-out area for supervised outdoor time, the majority of my services take place in your home where your pet is most comfortable and can maintain their normal routine. During walks and drop-in visits, I'll follow all care instructions closely, ensure your pet has fresh water, exercise, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention. I'll treat both your pet and your home with the same respect and care that I would my own, and I'll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident knowing your furry family member is in good hands.

About: A lifelong animal lover with experience from puppies to parrots, I provide devoted, joyful care. Treating every pet like family and spoiling them with love and attention.

As a life long pet owner of various breeds, species and personalities, I can guarantee safe and trustworthy care to your pet tailored to your needs .

About: I grew up on a farm surrounded by puppies, kittens, and all kinds of animals. I was there when my first dog gave birth and helped raise the puppies, learning how to train them along the way. This past year, I’ve cared for my senior dog when she had trouble walking and caregiving. I’ve also had the pleasure of walking and caring for dogs of all sizes for several families. With my lifelong experience with dogs and cats, I know exactly how to make sure your pet gets the best care! I currently have two dogs of my own and absolutely love spending time with them!! They are my babies I am available for pet care during the evenings and early mornings, and I’m also available on weekends (Friday, Saturday, Sunday) for dog walks or weekend dog sitting. I take care of pets in a cozy, safe space. I make sure they get their walks, playtime, and plenty of love. I stick to their feeding schedule and keep things clean—making sure they have their favorite toys around and giving them the love and attention that they need! When I’m at your place, I follow your pet’s routine to keep things as normal as possible—feeding, walks, playtime, and bathroom breaks. I’ll also make sure the place stays clean and tidy, and your pet gets all the attention they need while you’re away!

About: As good as home boarding. Treated like family 🐾 A private home with a half acre of fenced in yard for dogs to run and play. I only book one family at a time unless otherwise arranged. I’m almost always home, but when I’m running errands, dogs are never left alone for more than 4 hours. I’ve had pets in my family my whole life: always dogs, a few cats over the years, a house rabbit, hamsters, ducks, fish, lizards, turtles - so many lovely creatures! I’ve worked with rescues and shelters and have taken care of elderly dogs at the end of their lifespan administering medications orally, injections, and topically. Trained in doggy CPR. I also offer drop in visits for feeding, playtime, walks, and tidying up after your pets. Hazel is the host dog, a rescued, spayed, husky mix who gets along well with good natured dogs of all sizes. Your dog should be up to date on its vaccinations, healthy, and neutered if male. For my other job I do freelance graphic design from home and make my own schedule, so I’m very flexible with my time. When boarding at my home your pet will have my company throughout the day. I offer check ins, feeding, walking, playing, cleaning up after all pets and livestock at their home. I board dogs and caged pets overnight or for multiple days at my home where dogs have access to a fenced yard at any time of the day, full time supervision, and cozy accommodations.

About: Hi Everyone! I’m Bailee and I’m obsessed with animals. I’ve had a dog and/or a cat in my life since I was born (or multiples at the same time) - I have 2 cats and 1 dog of my own. I am available for dog walking and house drop ins on Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday and Sundays. Please let me know how I can help you out!! I will either take your dog on a walk as requested or drop in to take care of the animal. I have worked around animals for many years.

About: I am an animal lover, through and through. Dogs, cats, hedgehogs, birds… you name it. I treat my guest animals like my own and love on them as much as possible. I enjoy taking cute portraits of the pets in my care and I send lots of photos and written updates. I have a 7 year old female Aussie/Pit mix, and have had Doberman Pinschers in the past from puppies through old age until the rainbow bridge. I sometimes foster dogs through Illinois Doberman Rescue Plus. I’m patient with puppies and elderly animals. I check to see which commands they know and how they have been trained to keep them consistent in my care, and have experience administering medications to them. Before joining Rover, I frequently dog and cat sat for friends and family and worked at a dog/cat boarding facility. Aside from pet care, I teach ice skating lessons and work in Human Resources remotely. I have a lot of flexibility to accommodate your pet’s schedule and needs. My schedule may change in the future but I will update my info when that happens. I have one female 7 year old Aussie/Pit Mix and occasionally foster Dobermans through Illinois Doberman Rescue Plus. I have a spare bedroom to host guest animals with any bedding and belongings but during the day they are with me, within line of sight in my home. My yard is fenced (4ft) and only two steps to the yard from the door. There are no children living in my home. I live is a quiet neighborhood and can go for walks as needed.
