About: Hi! I’m Chloe, and I’ve been around animals my whole life from tiny toy poodles (which I currently own) to powerful cane corsos. My father bred Dogo Argentino puppies, so I learned as a young girl how to handle dogs of all sizes and temperaments with patience, love, and confidence. I’ve personally owned toy poodles, yorkies, dogo argentinos, and a cane corso, as well as two cats and currently own several reptiles. I’ve groomed dogs at home, regularly donate to my local animal shelters, and have cared for the pets of family and friends for years. Whether it’s a quick drop-in for a potty break and some playtime, or just keeping your dog company while you’re away, I treat every animal as if they’re my own—gentle, reliable, I will be sure your dog gets plenty of mental stimulation, exercise, and play! I have plenty of toys and treats for your furry baby and will be careful for always with love. I’m currently looking for a job with animals before starting my journey at my university but I currently have a lot of free time on my hands and would love to spend it with your pets! I have a big spacious home and fenced back yard, as well as plenty of outdoor space for your pet to run around in! As well as a small poodle to give your pet plenty of company.

About: I’ve Taken care of and trained over dozens of animals in over 6 years. I was an assistant pet trainer/groomer at a dog kennel. And volunteer for several animal shelters. I love taking care of animals of all kind, but specifically cats and dogs! I’m currently working part time remotely, so I’ll have a lot of time to make sure you pet is loved and cared for! I have a cat of my own and I always make sure she’s happy and healthy! I like to take walks 2-3 times a day so I don’t mind making sure your fur baby has had plenty of potty breaks. I live in a gated community with a fence separating me from my neighbors. I also have a huge backyard and plenty of space to keep your animals active and happy. I also love taking walks and having outside time. They deserve to have fun and enjoy their day too!

About: I grew up with dogs - my Afghan, Kesha, was my first best friend and how I learned to braid (lol). I've cared for Rottweilers, Pit Bulls, Cockers, and Min Pins. I've dog-sat and cat-sat for family and neighbors for years, and now my daughters and I are ready to open our peaceful home and fenced yard to pets needing love while their people are away. Our house has a crate, a basement space, and plenty of tail-wagging energy. Dogs aren't just welcome here, they're remembered forever. I'm currently home during the day with a very flexible schedule. I have plenty of time, space, and love to offer pets who need calm, consistent care while their owners are away. Pet care fits easily into my routine and brings so much joy into our home. I approach every client's home with the same respect. I would want someone to have in mine. I've worked in private homes as a section 8 inspector, a home care aide, and an insurance rep, so I'm comfortable operating professionally in someone else's space. I follow all house rules, keep things clean, and ensure pets feel safe and at ease while you're away. We live in a pet-friendly neighborhood. My daughters and I often take walks around the neighborhood, so any pet we care for will get the benefit of fresh air, familiar sights, and friendly energy. We have a peaceful, fenced yard, a crate if needed, and a quiet, unoccupied basement space for rest or separation when appropriate. I'm very aware of animal behavior, neighbor pets, and how to make pets feel safe and seen. This is a calm, kid-friendly, and pet-loving home.

About: I’ve been a dog mom for 10 years. Lost my baby in 2021 and every pup I’ve met since shared an immense amount of love, almost like they could sense my grief. I feel like I owe them everything and its my goal to give love to every pup I meet and maybe one day I’ll be ready to be a dog mom again. I am a freelance artist so my schedule is very flexible. The wedding season usually picks up in May but I only work weekend nights. I live in a quiet area with low traffic and a few close parks. I’m also next door to a police station so the are is also very safe. I have concrete floors so it’s okay if your fur baby is still potty training or up in years.

About: I have worked with animals in various roles throughout the years, from working in a doggy daycare, to volunteering and fostering with various rescue organizations (OTAT, RWAR). I am experienced in senior pet care, administering medication, and some obedience training. I have a soft spot for brachycephalic breeds, and I owned and raised a Boston Terrier rescue dog for 12 years (RIP Batman 2009-2023). I currently own a mellow and submissive lab/husky mix, Henry, and a Maine Coon/Domestic Medium Hair cat, Tater Tot. Both get along with other animals. I am currently not working a full time “normal” job, so I have plenty of time to walk and babysit your furry friends. I am available for on-demand walks in the city limits of Chicago and south suburbs. For North and Northwest Suburbs, I can be flexible with enou I own a historic Victorian row home; it is 3 stories plus a basement and 2600 sq ft. My home is in the heart of the Historic Pullman District, on National Park Service land. My neighborhood is VERY safe, and my home is also down the street from the 005 District Police Station. My home has plenty of room to spare for your fur children. Not only that, I also have a 6 ft fully fenced yard. There is a dog park 3 blocks from my home, and I am in close proximity to several Forest Preserves. If baths are requested, bath lovers can enjoy baths in a jacuzzi tub, and bath tolerators will be bathed in a walk in shower with a double rainfall showerhead, and a handheld shower head for the hard to reach spots. I can offer pickup and dropoff for those without a car or time to spare, and dogs will be transported in a seatbelt for safety.

About: After loving and caring for my dog of 12 years, Fuzzy Wuzzy, I decided to take up dog care/dog walking to care for other pets who need it. I work for a Professional Company, ‘Canine Care,’ for the better part of 5 months, and am ready to start my freelance work with Rover! I work with barking, lunging, curious, drooly, happy, jumpy dogs all day, and I won’t have a problem with however your dog is! I look forward to meeting and having a great, safe, time with them. I work Part-time, typically tuesdays-thursdays. But am available most days for boarding and walking. I text back very quickly so just ask and I’ll let you know right away! I have a fenced in back yard, no pets in the house and if you’re comfortable pets are allowed on the furniture. For walking, I have 6 foot and 10 foot leashes, and my neighborhood is on the quieter side if you’re dog is sensitive to noise. Let me know if you have any other questions I’m happy to answer.

About: I dog sat for a coworker who had 4 great danes. Potty breaks on certain days of the week, and staying however long was needed during trips. I grew up always having dogs and cats around, so I am very comfortable with all animals. I am great at following directions and can provide the care your pet deserves while you are away! I am working part time, and doing similar apps such as Instacart so my schedule is very open and spaced. I can watch your pet whenever the situation arises! In my home, I feed my pets on schedules, clean up after them whenever needed, check on what they are doing often, and watch them to really try to understand their individual personalities. I will do the same with your pet!

Darcelle is great with all animals and has a special talent for getting them to trust her. She pays attention to detail so no matter what instructions you leave her regarding medication, health or play instructions, she balanced everything perfectly.

Lupe has watched my pets over the past couple of years. I can always count on her to take care of my pets well in my home. My cats could be a bit shy with strangers but they were able to warm up to Lupe fast. They feel at home when she takes care of them, which is a relief when I am away. In addition, she keeps me updated daily with pictures and any important info every time. I highly recommend her ❤️

About: After loving and caring for my dog of 12 years, Fuzzy Wuzzy, I decided to take up dog care/dog walking to care for other pets who need it. I work for a Professional Company, ‘Canine Care,’ for the better part of 5 months, and am ready to start my freelance work with Rover! I work with barking, lunging, curious, drooly, happy, jumpy dogs all day, and I won’t have a problem with however your dog is! I look forward to meeting and having a great, safe, time with them. I work Part-time, typically tuesdays-thursdays. But am available most days for boarding and walking. I text back very quickly so just ask and I’ll let you know right away! I have a fenced in back yard, no pets in the house and if you’re comfortable pets are allowed on the furniture. For walking, I have 6 foot and 10 foot leashes, and my neighborhood is on the quieter side if you’re dog is sensitive to noise. Let me know if you have any other questions I’m happy to answer.

Jo has always loved animals and had pets her whole life. Dogs, cats, chickens, ducks, bunnies, goats and donkeys. She wanted to be a vet like all little girls want. She raised Ocho, an injured early litter removal doberman puppy to a beautiful HUGE pet that her uncle now owns in florida. She would be a very empathetic and loving pet caregiver for multiple breeds of animals. Dawn W.

Jasmine walked my two dogs while I was out of town for a weekend. She did an excellent job. My dogs were happy and showed no signs of stress. She stayed in contact with me by text and photos. I will definitely use Jasmine again to take care of my dogs.

About: I have had a dogs since I was 8 years old. I have specialized experience in taking care of senior pets. They have a special place in my heart. I currently own a guinea pig and have three year experience with small pets.Providing my small pets with care has allowed me to be very attentive to small details when caring for animals. They require so much patience and attention. I love animals in all shapes and sizes and my greatest passion in life are animals. I have a very flexible schedule. I work remotely and only part time so, I can be there for your pet whenever they need me. I always put the pet first. Their comfort and safety is my upmost priority. I would provide the best protection for your pet depending off the given circumstances.

Tarah was excellent with my 2 fur babies. They did not want to leave at pick up. She sent videos and pictures throughout the stay. She also has 2 fur babies of her own so mine had playmates. Definitely found a home away from home for my babies in the future.

Jennifer is the biggest pet lover I have ever met in my life. The compassion she has for animals is unmatched. I see it specifically in her care for her Newfoundland puppy but also in any other dogs she comes in contact with. She’s never met a dog she isn’t friends with and would be over joyed to assist anyone that needs help caring for theirs!

Consistent, punctual, communicative, and generous. She shows up everyday in a timely manner, cares for my dog, and even gives complementary baths and cleaning if she makes a mess. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED 🤗 she offers a good range of services as well!!

Marya did a great job walking our dog while one of us was away for a month. She was totally reliable and let us know how Jasper did on his walks. Thank you Marya!
