Caroline did a great job looking after our two dogs at our house, while we were traveling. One of our dogs is very skittish but Caroline was very patient with her. She paid close attention to the pups. She is calm, reliable, and trustworthy. She kept the house clean and tidy as well. We recommend her and will be happy to have her watch our pups again!!

Emily was FANTASTIC! She was super communicative, sending pictures and updates during her whole stay, and she left our place looking cleaner than when we left! You can truly tell how much she loves dogs and I couldn't have felt better knowing she was looking after our sweet Nellie. Thank you, Emily!!

JV cat & house sat for us for four day. Our three cats are needy little goblins who typically scream at us incessantly when we get back from out of town. Just got home today and the cats are calm (as they ever are) which is a first! Loved getting updates about snuggle sessions. I didn’t feel worried once about them during our trip, either, since I knew they were being well taken care of!! Thank you, JV ?

Gots lots of pictures of my boy and she was very upbeat about it all! I will most definitely try to use her again!!

Jamie was so comforting for my doggie, Honey. I was a little anxious to hire someone but would certainly recommend her for pet sitting/overnight. She Sent lots of cute pics that capture Honey’s mood and personality. She is a 10!

Kristina was beyond AMAZING!!! We will definitely be using her services again. This was our first time leaving our baby with someone completely new and using the app. Our baby is anxious, so we were truly worried about her being alone for so many days, but Kristina was incredible! We organized a meet and greet before our trip to ensure they both matched ☺️, and Sunny loved her. Kristina was so patient with our baby, who has a hard time trusting new people. She sent updates throughout the entire stay and took great care of our baby. She followed all the instructions and went above and beyond!! I would give more than 5 stars if I could!!

Karen for as long as I know her has been the kindest person I know when it comes to all animals! I have seen her take wonderful care of her family dog and when introduced to all my family dogs, she treats them all with the same love. They all bring a clear happiness to her and she is extremely responsible about all the doggos in her life and around her. She’s an amazing choice for a dog sitter!

Not only does she have two cats of her own, but she took them in and has been caring for them ever since.

Mak has also watched over my dog on several occasions, and each time, I have been blown away by her attentiveness and care. She went above and beyond to ensure that my dog was comfortable, happy, and loved!!

We were very pleased with Jamies stay. She had to do a little extra work to win over our girl including feeding her by hand, and carrying her home when she decided she didnt want to go home yet. Above and beyond. We will definitely use her again.

About: Ask me how to get $20 off your first Rover booking with me! Hola- Hablo Español, también! Hello there! I am a dog and cat mama myself and love to be around all animals. I have owned and babysat chickens, cats, and dogs since i was little. I am very patient and loving towards animals and would love to care for your fur baby as per your requests while you are away. I work at home full time so I am up early and will spend full days with your pet. Let me know of any special requests and I will be happy to fulfill them! Located in Elgin IL. I work from home full time and have a highly social and playful dog. During the day your boarded babies will play with Bentley (my dog) and nap on the bed in my office to jazz and classical music. During my break I usually walk my dog midday or late afternoon. If your dog or cat is not boarded, after 11A I am free to pop over and check on your fur babies and spend some time with them. My dog and cats safety at home are a high priority, I keep my home clean and free of anything they might chew or choke on. As well as all chemicals and other hazards showed away in cabinets they are unable to open. For my anxious dog I keep classical music on throughout the house to create a peaceful environment. Your pooch will feel at ease in my home and will always be watched and cared for. I make sure to send plenty of pictures and videos to update you on their mood and how their day is going. Nothing better than getting reassurance that your fur baby is in the best hands!! In your home I will watch them the entire time while they are playing and eating to make sure they are okay and haven’t gotten into any trouble.

Marilyn is great! She is extremely dependable and I know the dogs are in good hands. When she had to leave the dogs alone for some longer work days she had her son Adam fill in and he did a great job too. We had a small home maintenance issue while we were gone and they were on top of it and took care of everything. Highly recommend!
