“Erin took excellent care of our dog Happy. Our first time leaving Hoppy, Erin put us completely at ease. She is kind and professional. She was flexible and accommodated changes to the original request. I really appreciated her thorough communication regarding each visit. I can confidently recommend her and will welcome her help again in the future.”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and currently have two long haired miniature dachshunds that I’ve raised since they were puppies. If you know dachshunds, you know how stubborn they can be… which means I’ve mastered patience, consistency, and lots of love for all pups. I’m trusted by friends and family to walk, feed, and care for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I treat every pup like my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away! Rabies, Distemper, Bordetella are required vaccinations. Please provide proof of current vaccinations and/or the contact information and authorization to speak to your vet if needed. I work full time at a school and typically finish my day around 3pm, which allows me to offer dog walks and drop in visits after work during the week. For house sitting, my availability is primarily during holidays and school breaks when I’m off work and have more flexibility to spend time with your pets! While my availability is more limited during the school year, I’m always happy to chat about your needs and see if we can find something that works with my schedule. In your home: I love getting to know pets before caring for them, so I always welcome a meet and greet beforehand! This gives us a chance to get comfortable with one another and allows me to learn about their daily routines, feeding schedules, exercise needs, and any special instructions. My goal is to keep your pets as comfortable and happy as possible while you’re away, all while maintaining the routines they’re used to. For walks and drop ins: I make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for during our time together. Whether that’s a nice walk, potty break, playtime, feeding, or some extra cuddles, I tailor each visit to your pet’s personality and needs. As a dog mom of two myself, I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets. I treat every pet with the same love, patience, and attention I’d want someone to give my own! In my home, I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment in my apartment. All outdoor time is done on a secure leash, and we also have access to a nearby dog park if your pup is comfortable going for extra exercise and playtime. Since I have two dogs of my own, I prefer to schedule a meet and greet before boarding so our pets can be properly introduced and feel comfortable with one another. In your home, I love to meet pets beforehand so they can become comfortable with me prior to care. I take time to learn their routines, feeding schedules, exercise needs, and any special instructions so I can provide consistent and reliable care while you’re away. For walks and drop-ins, I make sure your pet feels safe and happy during our time together. Whether that’s a structured walk, potty break, playtime, or extra cuddles, I tailor each visit to your pet’s personality and routine.

“Kaitlin was great! The dogs loved her and she took great care of them! She’s very responsive and gives great feedback. Would definitely hire again! Thanks Kaitlin!”

“My original sitter canceled on me after I had already left town, so I booked Lynn on rover and explained the situation to her. She immediately stepped up to help out. I am a traveling healthcare professional staying in temporary lodging with a cat that take was meds daily so I was unsure how hiring her would go but it was an awesome experience! She took photos as snuggled my cats, she caught a very reluctant Puma to give meds to and she and her family took photos and kept in touch with me constantly through the weekend so that I didnt worry and enjoyed my time with friends. She is intelligent, sincere, and just a lovely person. If shes available I will always book with her in the future! I think my cats may have liked her family more than they like me!?”

About: I have grown up around dogs since I was born. I have always loved caring for and interacting with dogs. I do not have my own dog currently, but would love to help care for others! I am currently substitute teaching at an elementary school, so there may be weekdays I am unavailable. I am currently not working full time, so I will be available to walk your dog(s) throughout the week! I am open to walking as far as needed for your pup. I have experience safely walking more energized dogs, so your dog will be in good hands! I have also walked up to 3 dogs at a time (various sizes) if you have more than one that needs to be walked a time.

About: FIRST TIME CLIENTS*** Promo Code JORGEO48519 Hello, my name is Jay Ortiz and thank you for visiting my page! I love making every animal's day more memorable than the last. I am available in the rain, snow or shine and have 12+ years of animal care experience. Love is the key ingredient in every animals life & I make sure to treat each one as my own. Spoiling animals with a toy or treat is one of my favorite things to do. Training them for some fun family tricks is another great exercise I like to incorporate during playtime. Not every dog is the same, if your boy/girl is a calm, sweet pup that likes to just chill through the day no problem! While Zero (my dog) and I love to be active, we know how to rest as well. Not only will there be a large fenced yard to run & play in, but a public park is only a walk away, included with a scenic lake, which is great for casual strolls or healthy exercise! I have been fostering and taking care of dogs and cats since I was 16 years old. I have trained them myself with much success. I am a Marine veteran that has experience working with service dogs and know how to read body language and attend to your pet as needed. From sneaky ferrets, bubbling fish, trouble making cats, to energetic dogs, I am positive I can bring the best experience to you & your fluffy pals. After all, I think we could agree we treat them just as our actual children (haha)! I am generally pretty flexible when scheduling. Please message me for details. I look forward to building a relationship with you & your wonderful animals soon! *Special notes: ------------ - Meet & Greets are required unless specific events prevent so. This is important for me so we can get to know each other and your pet better. -Meet & Greets must be scheduled immediately when requesting a booking and take place that same week. -Booking requests must be confirmed or cancelled after each Meet and Greet. -Please note that Day Care Rates will be added for your pet’s extended stay (for boarding) or your late day arrival (for house-sitting) should the pick up or you’re arrival time go beyond 12:00pm on the last day of service. -Additional rates ($10/ hour) will apply to Doggy Day Care services when pick up time is beyond 7:00pm and before 11:30pm.

You and your family’s comfort and safety is my #1 priority as I aim to only give the highest quality of pet service. My weeks vary every month as I take care of new clients, repeat clients, Rover clients and Private clients each week. Whether you need repeat service or spontaneous visits, my goal is to be their for you and your fur babies 24/7, 365 days a year. I have a large fenced yard for any energetic pup to play in, along with a beautiful public park for your dog to explore. Not only will your pet have a vast landscape to have fun in but I also have a dog lounge equipped with a couch only used for dogs, mood lighting, treats, baskets of toys and much more! We do share the bed if your dog loves cuddles (we love them too!) and treat every fluffy client as my very own. For Away Services (such as house sitting) all the tender love and care is brought right to your door. Going for walks in your surrounding area, training, movies and fun are a must during each of my stays. After all, every cute dog deserves rest after a fun day! While pet sitting, if your pet is a high energy ball of fun I understand that that level of energy needs to be addressed with walks and play. I live right next to the park district and the neighborhood is an ideal location. I will attend to your pet strictly as required upon your instructions. Water will be accessible throughout their stay. Walk, run and play time will be conducted safely at the energy level displayed by your pet. I wouldn't want someone to make me run just because they want me to be tired later. Just like ourselves, our pets should be happy about exercising! I have multiple crates and if requested I can help potty train! My dog Zero is a rescue and he is a super sweet guy. He loves meeting new dogs and playing with the tug rope. He is a great companion on a run and can show others how to walk, run and play while following their leader. Environment: Very spacious, clean and friendly! **My girlfriend Taylor G., is also a Rover Sitter, so there may be other pets in our home while I'm watching your pet(s). If this happens, I'll absolutely notify you before our booking begins!

About: I truly love pets and enjoy taking care of them.

About: What sets me apart is my combination of hands-on experience and genuine passion for animal care. I’m currently studying to become a dog trainer, which allows me to go beyond basic sitting by reinforcing good behaviors, working on basic commands, and helping puppies build positive habits like potty training, crate training, and leash manners. I also have experience working in an animal hospital setting, so I’m comfortable recognizing changes in behavior or health and can confidently handle situations that may require extra attention. I’m experienced with senior pets as well, providing gentle care, administering medications if needed, and making sure they stay comfortable and stress-free. In addition, I have a calm home environment with a fenced yard and a nearby park for safe exercise and enrichment. I also have a retired service dog and a service dog in training, so I’m very familiar with structured routines, patience, and maintaining a peaceful environment around other animals. Hi! I’m Alina❤️ I’m currently studying to become a professional dog trainer and absolutely love learning more about canine behavior every day. I’ve worked in an animal hospital setting, where I gained experience handling dogs safely, assisting with care, and administering medications. I’m comfortable with high-energy pups, shy dogs, seniors, and even special-needs pets. I treat every dog like they’re my own and focus on patience, structure, and lots of positive reinforcement! I provide attentive, individualized care depending on each pet’s needs and the service requested. In my home, I create a calm, safe environment with plenty of supervision, structured routines, and enrichment like walks, playtime, and mental stimulation. I make sure pets are comfortable, well-exercised, and stick closely to their normal feeding and potty schedules.

“Joey does an amazing job caring for our greyhound, Happy. He communicates well, arrives on time, and gives Happy plenty of love and pets. Our dog gets excited seeing Joey, when he comes to take her for a walk. I can confidently recommend Joey and I will be contacting him again. He is always our first choice for care.”
