“This was our second time hiring Gianna through Rover. As always, she was very accommodating to the needs of our beloved Sienna! She took great care of her while we were gone and provided detailed updates on her time spent with Sienna. We will definitely be using Gianna again in the future!”
“Candace is amazing! She was super flexible to accommodate my last minute request, showed my pet a ton of love, & even sent me pics/videos during her walks. I will definitely book with her again. Highly recommended!”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, and caring for them has always been second nature to me. I’m genuine, patient, and pay close attention to every pet’s individual needs. Whether that’s a playful pup full of energy or a senior dog who just wants a calm, comfy space. I treat every animal like they’re mine and part of the family. You can count on me to be reliable, communicative, and truly present with your pet! I’m available Monday through Friday during reasonable daytime and early evening hours. I try to keep a consistent routine so your pet gets reliable care. I’m flexible with advance notice and happy to work around your pet’s usual schedule as much as possible. I offer care in clients’ homes only, since I believe most pets do best in their own space and routine. I’m available for drop-ins, dog walks, and in-home sitting. I’ll follow whatever your pet is used to whether that’s a specific feeding time, meds, or just getting out for a walk and some fresh air. I’m always respectful of your home and try to keep things as low-stress as possible for both you and your pet!
About: As a dog owner for the first 20 years of my life, I was used to walking, playing with, and administering medication to my best friend. Now, I find myself sitting animals of friends or family! I'm currently in the process of obtaining my Master's degree in Speech-Language Pathology at Governors State University. Besides classes and studying, my availability is open to whatever your pet needs! I can give undivided attention on weekends. No other animals are in my home, which allows for your pet to receive royal treatment! Unfortunately, unfenced yard, so your pups would have to be leashed.
“Amanda is AMAZING. I very highly recommend her for house sitting and just for walks. She’s so quick to respond and always available for those last minute walks if we get stuck at work or end up being out longer than we expected. So great.”
About: I've had dogs ever since I was born, I've walked and played with them. I've been dog sitting for neighbors since 2018. I've also volunteered at local shelters to help get the animals adopted by walking them around, and I helped keep their cages and surrounding area clean. I don't have any other commitments I'm obligated to, other than previously scheduled family engagements. I am happy to spend all my time towards caring for your pets! I won't take clients' pets in my home due to me having dogs and one of them is reactive towards other animals. However, this gives me better opportunity to bond with your pets as they won't be stressed from having to leave their home. If you have cameras in or around the home, please let me know prior to me entering, and I am perfectly fine with that! I can follow directions and schedules to a tee, and am happy to do what is needed to give extra love to your pets!

About: As a previous dog owner and sitter of nearly a decade, I have a very strong skill set when it comes to catering to your unique pup's needs! I am keen on carefully following the instructions left by dog owners while also using my own sensible judgement to make the best decisions for each pet. I can't wait to meet both you and your pup! I am a full-time CMU student, so I'm available to care for your pet(s) predominately on the weekends and all semester breaks during the school year, but anytime during the summer! I live in an apartment that doesn't allow dogs unfortunately. However, I do live within 3-5 minutes away from several parks, including Mellon Park, The Walled Garden, and Baum Grove Park.
About: I had a Boxer (Lola) for 7 years until she passed away from a heart condition. I trained her myself and she was the most behaved boxer. Even with all her energy Lola still listened to my commands. I live with one American bully and one pit-bull right now and they are always crawling on me wanting pets and love. I love giving animals the attention they need and deserve. I’m currently a pilot for a major airline and looking to play with pups on my off time. I’m available most days. I can do overnights too. I can be available whenever is convenient for you as I can adjust my work schedule as needed. I care for my pets by giving them lots of love and attention. I feed them the best food, good healthy treats, bathe them regularly.
About: I've had rescue dogs my whole life and understand the patience, love, and consistency they need to thrive. I’m the proud dog parent of a 3-year-old Plott Hound and a 4-year-old Beagle/Pit mix—both super friendly and always up for a game of tug-of-war! Over the years, I’ve successfully potty trained, crate trained, and helped my dogs work through separation anxiety. My hands-on experience gives me a calm, confident approach with all breeds and personalities. I’ll treat your dog like one of my own in a safe, fun, and loving environment. I create my own work schedule, which allows me to dedicate focused, flexible time to pet care every day. I structure my routine around feeding, walks, playtime, and training with my two dogs. This flexibility makes it easy to welcome another dog into our routine—whether for a walk, drop-in, daycare, or boarding. I’m committed to giving every pet the attention and consistency they need to feel safe and happy. I have a fully fenced yard where your dog can safely play alongside my two friendly, playful dogs. There are plenty of toys to keep everyone entertained! I’m happy to crate your dog if needed and always follow your daily routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I believe in clear communication, so I love sending picture updates to keep you connected and reassured while your pup is in my care.
About: I will be able to provide one on one care & I have volunteered at South Suburban humane society. I love dogs. Excercise is important and love and caring for a dog is important as well. I will provide both love and excercise for your dog. My services will be done passionately & thoroughly. I understand that dogs deserve the same care as a child. They are dependent on us to make them feel loved and feed them. My home is a cage free home. Your pet will be able to make my house their home away from home. I will take exceptional care of your pet. Available 7 days a week and accept last min bookings. If I’m not physically available I have someone readily available to get your pet until I am available. I am a registered nurse so I work either 8 hours or 12 hours, but I pick the days I want to work . I have a large fenced yard. I am crate free boarding but will crate if you request. We will take 1-2 walks per day & lots of play time in the backyard.
