“Lauren was super communicative and thorough with each of her check-ins with my two senior cats! I'm a worrier, so I really appreciated her regular updates on how they were eating and behaving, and I felt confident during my entire trip that they were in good hands. :)”


“Trinity was great with my cat Connie. She was amazing, gave him a lot of pets and took really good care of him. also left the place neat. Highly recommend her”

“Kaira was so great! She took care of my cat who was recently diagnosed with cancer and needs medications daily. She took great care of him and I will definitely be asking her to continue taking care of him when I'm gone.”

About: I miss my cat, but am not ready to find my place on the distribution system yet. I would love to take care of your buddy for a bit. I enjoy taking well-trained dogs on their walks to stop and smell all of the interesting spots, or canter alongside your dog who has so much it wants to see. I appreciate that not everyone has the mobility or the time to get their dog the exercise it needs. I know that your dog does best in its own home and am happy to stay where it is comfortable. I'm happy to spend time ensuring they are worn out and properly relieved. I'm a responsible business-owner and am looking for more ways to know my new neighbors in Chicago. Working from home allows me more flexibility to help you exercise your dog or visit your cat. I wfh and can modify my schedule within reason to ensure animals get visits. I can be there as early as 8:30 or midday or anytime after work. I do not board animals. But will follow your house rules and see what your furbaby needs to feel safe and protected all the time. I play with and cuddle animals, but also let the introverted ones know that I respect their boundaries.
About: Hey everybody! My name is Alex and I am very grateful and eager to be apart of a business that helps dogs and their loving owners. I have come to learn that pet care is quite important in my ten plus years of experience with dogs. Years ago, I was a partner in an organization that rescued dogs from kill shelters and then found them safe and loving forever homes. SO I am no stranger to dogs and good quality care. If you have any questions for me in terms of my experience or services, please do not hesitate to call. Any age from little rambunctious pups to easy going older dogs, I am happy to oblige to making life easier for you and your dog!

About: I’m a life long animal lover who has had cats and dogs my whole life besides the last few years while I raised my twins. My kids are now in school and I’m looking to do drop-ins and walks during the school day (11am-3pm). I volunteered with cats at Evanston animal shelter for several years. I have done drop-ins for cats and dogs through the years as well. My last pet, Mina, was a feral cat who needed extra love and care but slowly came out of her shell and thrived. I have also walked and cared for my friends and extended family’s dogs. I am a stay at home mom, and my kids are now in full day school, so I have time to spend with your pets. I am available from 11-3pm all weekdays except Thursday. I like being active so am looking forward to walks. I currently have no pets, so look forward to caring for yours. I can do drop-in visits and walks for your pets during the day. I have done drop-ins and walks for friends and family members over the years so feel comfortable with a range of animals. My home is not available for boarding.
About: I’ve grown up with multiple breeds of dogs as well as babysitting other friends and family pups. Your pup will be looked after with loving attention and treated like family :) Currently working as a realtor, so schedule is flexible. I can accept and confirm same day care! Also have a car if your place is out of range Living in the city, I stay away from busy streets for dog walks. As a realtor, I’ll make sure your home is secure and in better shape than when I leave
About: I think what sets me apart is that I never take it personally when animals like to keep to themselves. If they need time to warm up to me before they allow me to cuddle them, I respect their boundaries and leave them alone until they seek me out. I have a cat that doesn't really like anyone aside from me, and it really bothers me when people continue to try to pet him when he clearly doesn't like it. I also don't appreciate it when people yell or hiss at my cat when he hisses at them (because he's being territorial). It almost feels like they're arguing with a baby. I respect their boundaries the same way I respect a human's boundaries. This is my only job at the moment, so I have plenty of time to spend with your pets! I just lost someone close to me, and I think spending time with all the pets will be very healing for me. The way I care for pets in a client's home is by making sure they are fed, have clean water, and that they get plenty of playtime and cuddles.

“Brynn did such a phenomenal job with my pets! I’m always worried about leaving my anxious dog when I go out of town but I could tell that I could trust him with Brynn right away :) she was careful and kind with him and I loved getting her updates! I would be happy to have her watch my critters again.”

“Kayleigh was SO good with our cats! She made sure they both had all their needs attended to and played with them so they didn’t get bored or lonely while we were away. One of our cats is skittish and he took to her really quickly. Our other cat is a SLOW eater but she made sure he was getting enough nutrition. Such a wonderful sitter!”


About: I’ve cared for cats and dogs over the past 15 years and love spending time with fur babies. Happy to help with feeding, playtime, walks, home visits, and overnight care. I have experience giving oral medication with food to cats and dogs and have cared for senior pets before. My work schedule is currently very flexible and I’m available weekdays and most weekends. I can be available for daily walks/visits, or multi-daycare if you’re out of town. Your pet’s safety and care is my top priority! I am very respectful of your and your pet’s space and am happy to follow specific instructions about pet care.
About: I grew up with smaller pups: poodles and chihuahuas throughout my childhood until I left for college. Later when I started dog walking for Rover in 2014 I realized how much I love big dog energy so much too. Im particularly attuned and familiar with caring for German pointers, pitbulls, Great Danes, and Australian Kelpies. I’m deeply sensitive, empathetic, loyal, playful, and love nothing more than a good walk out in the nature. In this sense I really relate to the inner landscape of a dog such that we bond easily and strongly. I have experience caring for pups with anxious and nervous tendencies that require a little more special attention and tender care from my time working at a doggy daycare care in SLC. I bring a loving, exuberant, and compassionate personality to my time with pups, whether it’s a more low key cuddle-chill, sharing meals, or a dynamic play or adventure outdoors. I’m currently a student. I typically have class for 3 hrs / 3 days a week. My weekday classes are in the late evenings 7-10pm. So my days are flexible to craft around dog-care as necessary. When I care for your pet, safety and trust come first. I like to get a sense for how you wish your space to be maintained and get a sense for how a typical day runs for your pup(s) in order to best align with that. I settle in slowly. I prioritize sticking to your pet’s routines to allow your dogs and I both to aclimate to a new space/new person in their space, and your absence. Your home stays respected, your pet stays comfortable, I periodically document our experiences together to send you an image and an update check in so you can relax knowing they’re well tended to.

About: I've had dogs ever since I was born, currently have four beautiful pitbull and Australian Shepard mixes at home, including a tripod! I've taken care of dogs, cats, birds, fish, and turtles including puppies and older pets requiring extra help. I'm currently attending university, but all of my classes are within a few hours of another. My mornings and evenings are free and I can do overnight stays if necessary! I'm very active and can do walks and indoor or outdoor play time. Lots of attention to give and experience with trained and untrained dogs.
“Jessie did a great job watching my cat Hazel! She sent lots of pictures in her Rover Card (which I loved while out of town) and left detailed notes about the visit.”

“I hired Michael to check in on my cat while I was out of town. He followed all my instructions to the letter and when I came home my cat was happy and healthy. I would absolutely recommend Michael to anyone who needs a pet sitter!”

“Flower was the perfect friend for our cat while we were gone. Our cat can be anxious and timid but Flower really made him feel comfortable and safe. I really appreciated the sweet videos of them cuddling and playing together while we were gone to ease my own anxiety. I am really impressed with the really thoughtful care and would definitely recommend for any other anxious pet parents.”

Aaron checked in on our kitty 12 times while we were out of town. As a person who is very anxious leaving my cat while traveling, I didn’t have to worry once about Butternut while we were gone. Aaron was reliable, followed all of our instructions and regularly sent us pictures of our kitty. When our cat threw up he communicated it with us and reassured us that he didn’t mind cleaning it up. We (Butternut included) recommend Aaron!

Kiefer works very collaboratively with us. He’s an excellent communicator, keeps in touch in the lead up to the visit and afterward, and spends a lot of time learning about our dog. We appreciate his trustworthiness and reliability, and our dog appreciates his demeanor and patience. 10/10 would recommend!

Mercedes did a great job checking in on and playing with our kittens while we were out of town for a couple days. She followed all of my (very exacting) instructions, sent many photos, and checked in at exactly the times I requested. I'll definitely hit her up again if we'll be away overnight.

This was our second time booking with Autumn, and she was wonderful once again! She sent detailed updates and many photos after every visit, and it was clear that our cats were getting plenty of love and attention. She’s reliable and communicative, and we always feel comfortable leaving our cats in her care. We’re so glad to have found her and will definitely continue booking with her!

Melanie was amazing with our cats! She was super communicative, asked great questions, and followed instructions. We had peace of mind knowing they were getting such great playtime and care and came home to very happy safe and sound cats. Highly recommend!

Olivia did a fantastic job with our three cats! They are all sixteen years old, two require medicine, and one is particularly finicky. Olivia took care of them for over a week and bonded with all of them! She also provided thorough reports each time she visited. I am glad we found her. We will definitely use her the next time we need someone to take care of our cats! Olivia is reliable and responsible- highly recommend her. Jennifer
Incredible sitter!!! Brenda was amazing. We got great photos and updates on our two cats while we were gone. Our cats have special dietary needs, and Brenda followed every instruction we left to the letter. The cats looked great when we returned. Brenda made the entire experience easy for us, and we enjoyed our vacation with complete peace of mind. THANK YOU BRENDA!
