“My baby’s second time at Sylvie’s and he had a blast! I love how he’s so excited to be around her and the other pups. I appreciate Sylvie so much for caring for Wally. Absolutely the best!!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Estefania! She loved on and spoiled Maizy and we will definitely visit her again! She shared lots of photos and videos and we always knew our puppy was in good hands! A big thank you to Estefania and her family!!”
“Karen was great with our dogs Bella and Brandy! She was very friendly and responsive and sent us lots of updates and pictures during our vacation! We will definitely use Karen again for future trips!”
“We could not be happier with Natalie and how she took care of our very sensitive Great Dane! She and her fiancé were naturals with her and communicated with us extremely well. All of the photos and antidotes helped us feel confident that our dog was doing OK and enjoying herself! It’s very rare to find such kind, caring and professional people to take care of your pets. She is a true gem!”
About: Pet Care Experience I have hands-on experience caring for my own dog and understand the responsibilities involved in providing daily care. My duties included feeding and providing fresh water, taking my dog on regular walks for exercise, grooming, cleaning up after them, and ensuring they had a safe and comfortable environment. I also monitored my dog's health and behavior, administered medications when needed as directed, and provided plenty of attention, playtime, and affection to support their overall well-being. Through this experience, I developed patience, responsibility, and a strong understanding of the importance of consistent, compassionate pet care. Pet care is a regular part of my daily routine. I make time each day to feed my dog, provide fresh water, take them on walks, clean up after them, and spend time playing and interacting with them. I also make sure they receive any needed grooming and monitor their health and behavior to ensure they are happy and well cared for. Caring for my dog has helped me develop consistency, responsibility, and a strong commitment to meeting an animal's daily needs. When caring for pets in my home or a client's home, I follow the owner's instructions to ensure the pet stays on its normal routine. I provide fresh food and water, regular walks and exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention. I clean up after pets, keep their living areas clean, and monitor their behavior for any signs of illness or discomfort. If medications are required, I administer them according to the owner's directions. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment while treating every pet with patience, kindness, and care.
“Nardine was very accommodating. I had to sit with Nardine in the yard to let my dog get to know her. It took about 30 mins. But Sugar adjusted. Nardine thank you for your patience. I would highly recommend. I will be using her again Jean”
About: What sets me apart is the genuine care and attention | give every pet as if they were my own. I understand that every dog has a different personality, routine, comfort level, and set of needs, and I take the time to get to know them rather than using a one size fits all approach. I'm experienced with dogs of different energy levels and personalities, including playful, high energy dogs as well as more laidback pups who prefer a quiet, relaxed environment. I'm comfortable maintaining feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication routines, and other instructions provided by their owners. I'm also patient with puppies who are still learning and happy to provide extra attention and structure to senior dogs who may need a slower pace or additional care. Most importantly, I treat pet sitting as more than simply stopping by to feed a dog. I want your pet to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for while you're away, and I want you to have peace of mind knowing they're in good hands. I'm dependable, communicative, and will happily send updates and photos so you don't feel like you're missing out while you’re away. I work from home, which allows pet care to fit naturally into my daily routine. I’m able to provide plenty of companionship, regular potty breaks and walks, playtime, and attention throughout the day rather than leaving pets alone for long periods of time. My schedule also gives me flexibility to accommodate each pet’s individual routine, whether they need frequent breaks, scheduled meals, medication, extra playtime, or simply someone nearby to make them feel comfortable. I enjoy having pets around while I work and am happy to make their care an important part of my day. Please no dropoffs before 8am and no pick ups after 8pm. Thank you 😊 Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. I want every pet to feel comfortable, secure, and treated like part of the family. I have a fenced in yard where dogs can safely enjoy outdoor time, play, and potty breaks without being exposed to traffic or other outdoor hazards. I’m also happy to follow each pet’s normal routine and any specific instructions from their owner, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and individual preferences. I keep a close eye on pets throughout their stay and make sure they have a clean, comfortable, and welcoming environment. Whether I’m caring for a pet in my home or visiting a client’s home, I treat their space, belongings, and instructions with the same respect I would want for my own pets. I’ll also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Note: If your pet is ill with a communicable sickness, please keep them home. I have two dogs in my home, and I greatly appreciate your understanding.
“My pups couldn't have had any more fun!! Julie, her husband, and their child couldn't have been any more commentating. We went to Julie's place for a few days before for a sniff, and Julie and her husband were so accommodating with our high energy Viszla. Throughout the time our pups were there Julie sent us pictures and updates. One of our Vizsla is super energetic and loves to play. Our other Vizsla is rather calm and loves to be a couch potato. Both of our pups may have different personalities, but Julie and her husband could not have been any better for us and our pups!! We will definitely be coming back!!”
“Pennie took amazing care of our dog and kept us updated with pictures and info so we knew he was doing well. Thanks so much and we are happy to have someone as caring and helpful as you watching him when we leave town ?”
“Linda was amazing. We were nervous leaving our dog with someone other than family for the first time and she made everything stress-free. Our puppy had a blast and settled in amazing all weekend which is a testament to Linda! I highly recommend Linda for all services!”
“I cannot recommend Lupita G. enough! She took such amazing care of my dog, treating them like her own. From the moment I dropped my pup off, I felt at ease knowing they were in great hands. Lupita provided frequent updates, complete with adorable pictures, which made me feel connected even while I was away. It was clear that my dog was happy, comfortable, and well-loved the entire time. If you’re looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive dog sitter, Lupita is the one! I will definitely be booking with her again. Thank you, Lupita!”
“This is my first time using the Rover App and Christina made it an amazing experience. We met prior to boarding so I was very comfortable with seeing the space our puppy was going to stay. This was a great opportunity for us to meet her sweet pup Brydie. Both Dogs hit off from the start and I knew this was a good opportunity for our pup, Marshmallow to have a friend to play with while we are out of town. We had fears about Marshmallow running off but Christina took good care of her. She sent us pictures while we were on vacation on was very easy to work with. Her whole family was great and I knew our baby was in good hands. I highly recommend Christina as she is kind and companionate and you know she will treat your pup as her own. Thanks for such a great experience.”
“Matt and Michelle took great care of our 2.5 year old Mae again! They treated her like family and she had a great frolicking with their family dogs and visiting guest dogs. Very accommodating with some minor changes to our plans. Thank you!”
“Kimberly and Matthew were great with our dogs! We enjoyed the consistent updates and pictures. One of our dogs is a nervous guy and he warmed up quickly to both. Highly recommend!”

Brittany took great care of my fur baby. I had some difficulty with the timing of my trip and she was very accommodating. I also have difficulty leaving my sweet fur baby behind. He came home so relaxed and at ease. That was a good sign for me. Thanks so much Brittany! I will be using you again in the future ❤️💙.
Ana was wonderful and we've already scheduled another date with her. She's very professional, knowledgeable and trustworthy which always makes it easier to leave your fur baby in someone else's care. Ana was in constant contact with us through pictures, videos and texts and our 12 year old GSP Ellie was living her best life! We would highly recommend her to anyone!

During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Crest Hill home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
