House Sitting East Forest Park

“One of the best and thorough dog-sitters to date. You would be foolish not to hire her. I got regular updates and communications about my pup, down the consistency of his poop. The best! Hire her! She is the “Dog Nanny” “period”!!!!!!”

“Eryn was amazing dog sitting at my house. I was very worried about my nervous pup, how he would be for the week; but apparently as soon as I left, he was fine! I especially am grateful for Eryn extending her stay unexpectedly, when I had flight delays and could not get home in time for the original time. She even handled the huge snow storm like a pro, because she is. My pups very obviously adore her and I hope to hire her again soon!”

“Molly did a great job watching Maggie and Gracie and was flexible when our flight got delayed due to weather. Would recommend Molly for overnights. She is gentle with dogs and they get to know her they are looking for pets constantly!”

About: I've been around dogs my entire life and have owned dogs since I was 8 years old. Growing up, I helped care for them every day, including walking, feeding, basic training, playtime, and making sure they stayed happy and active. Over the years, I've also cared for neighbors' and friends' dogs through drop-in visits, walks, feeding, overnight stays, and house sitting. What sets me apart is that I treat every dog like my own. I understand that each pet has a unique personality, routine, and needs, and I make it a priority to provide attentive, loving care while keeping owners updated and giving them peace of mind. Whether your dog needs a long walk, extra playtime, companionship while you're away, or consistent care in their familiar environment, I'm committed to making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. As a student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to fit pet care around my classes. I'm available for walks, drop-in visits, feedings, and quality time with pets throughout the week, and I have even more availability on weekends. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I am committed to providing reliable, attentive care and making sure pets feel comfortable, happy, and well looked after while their owners are away. I provide pets with the same care, attention, and love that I give my own. In a client's home, I follow their pet's normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and any special instructions. I also make sure pets receive plenty of companionship and attention so they feel comfortable while their owners are away. In my home, pets will have a safe, welcoming environment with lots of supervision and care. I also have a very friendly Chihuahua mix who enjoys the company of other dogs and can provide a great playmate and companion. My goal is to make sure every pet feels happy, safe, and well cared for, whether they're staying with me or I'm caring for them in their own home

“Julissa is amazing! If I could give 10 stars I would. She kept us very informed about her stay and our fur-babies. I highly recommend her and we will definitely be booking her again!”

Shannon S.

“Thank you for communicating with me throughout your stay. I’m really glad to have feedback on how my dog is doing and what additional support I need to give him. I really look forward to you sitting with him again.”

Deb C.

“James & Reichel did a fantastic job with our furbaby, Oscar. They were always responsive and prompt, and we would definitely hire them again!”

Angela K.

“Ace is our go to person for our very anxious yet adorable Beagle. Our pup is so well taken care of by Ace. We have no worries when they are on the job!”

Karen M.

“Kayla did a wonderful job taking care of our dog and our home while we were away. She was very responsive to my inquiries both before our booking and while we were away. We will definitely contact her for future needs.”

About: Growing up my family and I have always been around dogs, we had our own, and loved to go and volunteer with them as well! I now have my own little pup named blaze, he is a 3 year old cockapoo and he means everything to me. I know what it means to have an add on child when you have a dog, because I would do anything for Blaze and will do anything for your pet as well! I have time to sit with your animal in the evening on most weekdays, and even on the weekends if need be! I am a college athlete who has extra time and would love to help! I am able to walk them in safe environments and can always bring my own supplies for your pet if need be! If I have your dog with me, I will be able to crate them and also provide them a puppy friend to play with.

“Charlie had another great stay with Jessica. She was attentive to him, letting us know his chronic cough was increasing. She managed it well, professionally and patiently, with permission from us to give an extra dose of one of his medications. She communicated with us throughout the stay-”

“Having Julie G house sit and care for my 85 lb. hound Dave was dreamlike. She seemed to accept and appreciate Dave and his coonhound ways seamlessly from the jump. She took copious notes about Da daily needs and expectations at the meet & greet, asked intelligent questions about his routine and I was able to leave town completely confident Dave was in good loving hands. She sent me daily pics and reports while I was away, and left Dave mellower and the house cleaner than it was when I left. A terrific experience from my perspective Can't recommend Julie G strongly enough as a house and hound sitter.”

Bob S.

“Haley was great with my almost 100 pound boy! She cleaned up and left my house better than how I left it for her. She was communicative and took my needs seriously!”

Megan L.

“Kira was an amazing sitter for our two dogs! They were communicative, sent lots of pictures, and gave the dogs lots of love. I would definitely book them again’”

About: I cared for a Maltese as part of my daily routine for over two years. Since I worked from home during the day, I was primarily responsible for his daytime care, including walks, potty breaks, playtime, feeding, fresh water, and making sure he received plenty of attention. He has since moved back to China, and I truly miss having a dog around every day. That’s one of the reasons I joined Rover—I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and would love the opportunity to care for yours. Whether it’s a walk, a potty break, or simply keeping them company, I’ll treat every dog with patience, kindness, and the same level of care I always provided. I have a flexible work schedule, so I’m available for daytime dog walks, potty breaks, and drop-in visits in addition to evenings and weekends. Whether your pet needs a quick potty break or a longer walk, I’m happy to work with your schedule and provide reliable, attentive care. As a former Maltese owner, I understand that every pet is a beloved family member. I know how important trust is when someone else is caring for your pet. I’ll always follow your instructions carefully, prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort, and treat them with the same love and patience I gave my own dog. I’ll also provide photo updates after every visit so you always know how they’re doing.

“Jillian was great with Pollo and gave him lots of love and play time. Would definitely recommend her.”

“Alissa was a real pleasure. We have a brand new 2yo rescue dog, Pixie, who is really sweet but can be a bit rambunctious and not 100% house trained. We needed to have someone come to our house who could follow our training regimen. None of our friends and neighbors were available. This was our first experience with Rover and Alissa was a gem. She was friendly, upbeat and enthusiastic about meeting and spending the weekend at our house with Pixie. Pixie is on heartworm meds and Alissa was on top of everything. She followed our training directions exactly and she send us great pictures and video clip. Not only was she a great dog sitter, our house was also tidy and she made sure to even take out the trash before we came home. It was a great first Rover experience and we will definitely invite Alissa back next time we need a buddy for our Pixie.”

About: I have been walking and caring for my own personal animals - 2 dogs, cat, bird, hamsters since I was 5 years old. I also have been dog sitting and walking for numerous neighbors and friends in the area. I work during the day a full-time job. I am available early in the morning and after 4:00pm during the week. I am available on the weekends anytime of the day. I have a fenced in backyard that my 4 year old Brittany Spaniel, Maggie loves to run around and play ball. It is completely fenced in so she can't get out. I love to be outside playing with my dog and bring her on 3+ walks a day around town and at the local park.

“We have only been away from our fur babies one time in all of the years that we have had them. They are both rescues and came from horrific pasts. The one time that we were away, a familiar family member stayed overnight with them. That being said, the decision to leave our fur babies (and our home) in the care of someone who was unfamiliar to them and us was a very stressful and uncomfortable feeling. After reading/reviewing numerous profiles and talking to/meeting with a few potential sitters, we were blessed to meet Georgia. We felt it was a perfect fit, on our end, shortly after she arrived at our home for the initial visit. Watching how Georgia interacted with our high energy and anxious dogs was heartwarming. Also, the fact that she was not bothered by Gunner's tearing/suckling of his blanket (which he has done since we rescued him and prior due to his anxiety) was a relief. Gunner and Zohie (as well as myself) immediately picked up Georgia's calmness and friendly nature. Georgia was extremely patient and open with me while I bombarded her with question after question and detail after detail about our dogs. At the end of our first meeting, I nervously asked Georgia if she thought she would want to take the responsibility of caring for our dogs and home while we were away. When Georgia said she was willing to take care of them, it was such a relief. Then I asked Georgia to come and spend more time with them/us again, prior to the overnight. She said, "Yes, of course!" and I felt that we had hit the jackpot! Prior to and during the stay, Georgia responded quickly to my numerous messages/questions/check ins. She sent us pics and kept us updated. When we returned home, our house was exactly as we left it and the dogs behaved as though we were not away. This made us feel as though they were comfortable and relaxed with Georgia while we were away. Georgia is truly invested in building relationships with pet owners as well as the pets. It is clear that Georgia cares about her responsibilities, loves animals, and takes this position seriously. She is a true gem and we are already talking about going away again very soon.”

About: I have a 6 year old Jack Russel/Chihuahua that is the sweetest most loving girl! I have trained her myself since she was a puppy, I have learned SO much. I have a schedule that’s a little all over the place but I’m willing to work out different times through the week that best suits you and your dog. It’s something that would have to be discussed based on your wants and needs for your dog. All dogs are different, every dog owner is different. But I would be sure to feed, give them water and walk as needed.
