“Jill is great! She accommodated our need for a sitter after our regular cancelled last minute! She kept us updated, and we came back to a very happy dog! Will definitely be using her in the future and think you should absolutely give her a try too!”

About: I have 10+ years of experience with animals, in training, grooming, and medical environments. I have CPR pet certification, and I am a true lover of dogs and cats. I am pleased to offer grooming during their stay! I have availability M-F to be with pets morning, noon, or night, and open availability on weekends to spend as much time with them as needed! I’m flexible with whatever you and your pet need, crates or no. I have two cats but can be separated easily if needed. No yard but access to trails and parks, of if they are lounging pets we have a closed-in patio as well. Also I can offer professional grooming services at a discounted rate!

“Christie was wonderful! All the pets were well cared for and our home was in great shape! She communicated during the trip and the pictures helped us when we were missing them. Highly recommend her to everyone!”


“This was our first time using anybody to watch our dog and home other than family or a boarding center, so we were super skeptical about the Rover process and hiring a stranger to watch our fur baby. However, quickly after meeting Logan, we knew we would welcome her in our home! She was very responsive, friendly and obviously loved animals. These traits were still apparent while she watched our dog in our home for 10 days. She sent us 2-3 pictures or videos of our dog daily (but also stated she didn’t have to if we didn’t want to be bothered on vacation) and we loved getting those updates! When we returned, the house was nice and clean, including fresh laundry and an empty dishwasher. She also offered to water our flowers and they were surprisingly healthier looking when we got back so I know she spent time holding up that offer too. Overall, our dog seemed happy and well cared for and we were pleased with the level of communication she provided. We will definitely use Logan again and would highly recommend her to anybody needing a pet sitter! We just hope she doesn’t get too popular! Thank you Logan!”


About: Local educator that would love to take care of your fur babies! I have lived with a cat almost all of my life. I have taken care of friend’s pets and other teacher’s pets for the last 5 years. I do drop ins, walks, bathroom breaks, and overnight stays. As a school teacher, I’m unavailable during the school day from 8 AM–4 PM Monday through Friday. I’m available in the evenings and have open availability throughout the weekends, giving me plenty of time to provide your pet with attention, walks, playtime, and care. I focus on providing reliable, attentive care in your pet’s familiar home environment. I’ll follow your instructions and your pet’s normal routine while making sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, bathroom breaks, and companionship. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority.
“Natalie was excellent with my dog! I left for a week vacation and she house sat for him. She came over before I left to meet him and immediately had my shy dog excited to play fetch with her. She kept me updated throughout the week and I came home to a healthy/happy dog! Would definitely recommend!”

About: I have been caring for pets of all ages, for 15 years. I have loved living with dogs and cats in the past. I currently do not have a pet so I’m excited to give yours all my attention! I work full time, from 8-5. I am free in the afternoons and weekends to either stop in or stay with them if needed. I will be diligent in following directions to try to keep them on their regular schedule as much as possible. I want to keep you and them happy and stress free!
About: Besides being a pet owner myself, I’ve worked for a puppy breeder, at well loved dog and cat grooming salons, and been a veterinary assistant where I gained experience in medications. How to orally and transdermally administer, as well as some injections and fluids. I’ve previously been a full time pet sitter/walker before as well! I’ve had lots of experience getting to know the needs and behaviors of dogs and cats. I’m a huge exotic animal lover too so if you have any rodents, lizards, snakes I’d be comfortable taking care of those! I’m currently doing pet sitting and walking full time so I have lots of free time to accommodate your pet needs whether that be multiple visit through the day, or 1 hour + long visits. I am more than comfortable to take care of dogs in yours and their personal home setting as well as welcoming them to my home. I live in a safe community with no pets or children of my own at home currently. I have a yard that is fenced and also have plenty of space to walk them around my neighborhood.
About: I have had a dog since I was 8 years old and I grew up around many animals, such as cats and birds. I love to play with dogs and make them less anxious while their owners are away. I am a college student, so I am pretty busy, so I could not stay all day, every day, but I am happy to make it work any way I possibly can! I will keep a watchful eye on them when letting them outside and I will listen to them if they are whining and need something
“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! From the moment we left, we knew our pets were in great hands. They were loved, well-cared-for, and clearly spoiled with attention while we were away. We got updates, peace of mind, and came home to happy, relaxed pets — which says everything! Reliable, kind, and truly wonderful with animals. We would absolutely trust them again and highly recommend to anyone looking for someone to treat their pets like family. Thank you for taking such great care of our furry crew!”

About: I’ve owned dogs, cats, and other animals since I was born. I watch my neighbors’ cats and/or dogs and I’ve given medicine and baths and anything else you can think of. I am currently available whenever to take care of any animals . I work little jobs whenever they come to me , I am free. I can easily crate the pet if needed. If the backyard is not fenced I will put a leash on them and walk them out there.
About: Hi! I’m a reliable and caring dog sitter with experience caring for dogs of different breeds and sizes. Having owned and cared for several dogs in the past, I understand the importance of providing love, attention, exercise, and a safe environment while you’re away. I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and treat every pet as if they were my own. I look forward to helping keep your furry friend happy, comfortable, and well cared for! I do have an another job I do as well but I make my own schedule with it so I have a very flexible schedule! I have a spacious apartment that your pet can roam freely around and it is dog proof as I have my own dog that your pet can play with!
“We love, Ariana! We were incredibly lucky to have her at the helm while we were away for a long, five days stretch across the country. Walter gets pretty anxious when we’re gone for more than a couple of days so it’s easy to tell when we get back how his experience has been. While he was happy to see us, of course, he was very calm, which means he had an incredible sitter and wasn’t worried or anxious in our absence at all. I got a ton of pictures and she was in contact consistently. As far as the house goes, you wouldn’t even know that we weren’t here aside from Walt being happy and her bringing in all the packages 💛.”


“Sam was fantastic!! Our dog was very calm when we got home and that is often not the case. It was clear that Sam had kept her happy and taken good care of her. Highly recommend!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Elmhurst
Jonathon was great with my three large breed pups ranging from 2 to 13 years old. Two required meds and he was able to maintain that easily even with the stubborn one. My house was just as we left it. He sent many videos and photos keeping me informed and allowed me to enjoy our trip knowing my babies were so well cared for.

Alexa was a dream to work with! She is extremely responsive and was very attentive to our needs. She house sat for us for a few days and sent us a bunch of cute pictures of Hamlet and Marty while we were away. She left the house exactly as we left it. We will be contacting her for our next trip!

Sam was wonderful! She cleaned up after herself, communicated with us really well, and most importantly, loved and cared for our pup like we do. She was incredibly thoughtful and intuitive about his care, and I felt completely comfortable knowing he was in good hands with her. We would absolutely have her back!
