“Emily and her family are awesome and took great care of my Kobe Bean while I was away. Loved the pictures and videos she sent daily. I would definitely recommend her and let her watch Kobe anytime! ☺️☺️”
“Thank you so much Kelly! My husband and I had a worry free weekend away knowing our dogs were well taken care of with Kelly. She went above and beyond for our girls and seeing pictures and getting updates was amazing!”
“She was a great person to come see my cats. I'd call myself and pets on the higher maintenance type of situation and she was able to hand it all like a champ. She had to medicate 2 of them and was successful, spending how ever much time she needed to get them to take their meds. Very communicative and able to follow directions!”
“Jennifer was available super last minute to take care of my cat. I felt confident my baby was getting plenty of attention and play time while I was away. The daily check-ins and pictures really helped put me at ease. Would definitely book again. Thank you!”
About: I have been around animals my whole life, and I have done dog and cat sitting a few times over the years for neighbors or friends. I’ve had cats and dogs in my home since 2014, and I am very comfortable around both. I currently have a full time job; I work primarily in the mornings with evening shifts thrown in here and there. I don’t do much outside of that, so I am pretty available otherwise. I want to keep all pets feeling comfortable, following their routines/schedule, and keeping them company (within their boundaries). I no longer live with my cats and miss them greatly, so I will make sure they receive extra attention, pets, and playtime (within their boundaries).
“MacKenzie & Jacob own 4 cats (no dogs but they sometimes board them) and clearly love animals. My 2 sibling kittens were born feral on my farm and when Mama disappeared, I had to take them in. Did not intend to keep them but these kitties had different plans. I am in the process of training them to spend more time indoors, and interact with other humans and animals. How lucky that I found MacKenzie on Rover. My kitties had their own space (spare bedroom) where I set up their familiar bedding, litter box, food, scratch post, etc. I started with a 24 hour stay and will prob try a few more days before taking a longer trip later this year. MacKenzie sent me regular updates. One kitty was slightly braver, exploring her surrounding. They both allowed MacKenzie and Jacob to pet them (although they admit they were shaking, which is no surprise) and they ate (not much) and used the litter box, but barely left the bedroom. MacKenzie & Jacob put them in their carriers minutes before I arrived (the cats only slightly resisted they said) and brought them downstairs with all of their belongings & helped me load it all up. I am very much looking forward to having my kitties spend more time with these two wonderful cat sitters - even when I don’t need a sitter - bc I want them to get more human and kitty interaction and I believe MacKenzie and Jacob’s home is the ideal environment. They are lovely, kind-hearted sitters who will give my babies the love and patience they need to become less feral and become the 2 house cats I need them to be.”
About: I have experience with all dogs from senior Chihuahuas, sassy pitbulls, and super energetic doodles. I would love to sit and chill, or run around and get some zoomies out. Have experience with post surgical care and rehabilitation. I'm a Senior at Normal West but would love to get to know/meet your pet on the weekends any time, or after school/practice (timing depends on season but typically after 4) No other pets currently live in my home which is typically quite. Have lots of area to walk around in backyard, but backyard is not fenced in.
“This was my first time using a Rover sitter but it won’t be my last. I loved Georgia’s regular updates and photos each day. She seemed to care about my kitty and providing her with loving care while we were away. Thank you, Georgia!”
About: Through out my life I've had several different furry friends (and fish!). I have worked with all kinds of animals from ones that love to run and play to ones that would prefer to lounge around all day! My fur baby, Dodge, is a mix of the two so im sure to cater to each side of him by providing different types of enrichment and trainings for each mood. I am currently a stay at home wife looking to make some pocket money while doing something I love! I'll have plenty of time to look after your lovely animal children! Most of the times, short term stays or quick check-ins work best for me, but I am open to talks regarding longer stays. I am a strong believer in spending as much time with pets as possible, so I plan to enact that with your fur babies as well. I will send you pictures of your fur baby on walks or lounging on the couch with small updates.
About: I’ll love your FIDO like he/she was my own. Snuggles and cuddles. I’ve had older and younger. He’s high energy so where are the crazy FIDOS? I’m a wiz at making funny faces. I have no problem with special needs dogs. I have a super duper spoon with peanut butter for them to gobble the medicine. Fetch happens to be one of my favorite times of day. I’ll get your pooch all tuckered out. I have volunteered at animals shelters all over the country. Currently I work for an animal clinic and learn new things everyday. No question is a dumb question when it comes to your fur baby. If I can’t answer it, I’ll YouTube. Just kidding. Thanks for looking at my profile. I currently work full time but when I’m with your babe, I’m 100% committed to their safety. They are my priority. Thank you for reading I have dogs of my own; however, there would be a meet-and-greet before I’d take in a boarder. My dogs are UTD on all vaccines. Extra precautions are taken during feeding times.
About: I am willing to stay the night if needed or just stop by to check on dogs. I will give walks or whatever else is needed as well! When I lived at home, before moving to St Charles for college, I took care of my pets every day. I would feed, walk, and love on my two dogs daily.

About: I’ve had rescues my whole life and had dealt with all sorts of dogs (aggressive, anxious, shy) and I am comfortable with all of them!

About: I’ve always been an animal lover since I was little. Throughout college I have done all sorts of pet/house sitting for friends, family, coworkers etc. I have house sat for a family friend that required feeding and watering horses, milking goats, reptile care, rabbit cleaning care, medicating cats/dogs if needed, you name it. I currently have a Corn Snake as well as a Crested Gecko. I have been a Veterinary Receptionist for over 3 and a half years now and have a beautiful 11 month old daughter I plan to share my love of animals with. Currently working a max of 30 hours at my day job as a Veterinary Receptionist but recently have been working less. Typically I have Sundays and Tuesdays off during the week but sometimes get another random week day off depending on how busy we are at the clinic. My shifts are usually from 10-4pm or 12:30-6:30pm. Your home is their home. I will cater to your pet based on what they like or need. If they just need someone to keep them company I’m there. I will treat your space with respect and follow any instructions given. My pets are family and are treated as such so the same would go for your kiddos.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs, cats, reptiles, and fish from the ripe age of 10! I have had animals from the size of teacup yorkies to the size of Rottweilers so size doesn’t challenge me.
