“Leslie was amazing with our dog, Bucky! Bucky is a stubborn Shiba Inu, but with her patience and kindness, Leslie won his trust and heart over. She was also very understanding and attentive to his needs. We could tell that she really cared about him like we do. We are forever grateful to her and would definitely rebook and recommend Leslie to our friends and family!”

About: Whether your pup needs a place that feels like home while you are out of town or a fun friend to stay with when you are off at work, you will find what you are looking for with me. As an Ex High school teacher, I know how to be patient and still set boundaries. I have been caring for dogs for about 14 years, and have experience with dogs of all sizes. I know how important reliability and consistency is for our four-legged loves. And I will give nothing but love and attention to your cherished friend. I am available to watch your dog in my home Monday through Friday and am around for sleepovers 7 days a week. I currently work part-time from home, so I have plenty of time and attention to lavish on your pup which is what I love to do. I have a fenced-in yard and the ability to give your special friend a lot of attention. I take oodles of pictures and document our walks, so you know your pup is having fun. I also write personalized texts from your furry companion throughout their visit.
8. Wendy C.
“Wendy is a responsible and knowledgeable animal lover. She has no criminal background and would look forward to walking your dog and ensuring their safety. She grew up with a rottweiler, then wiener dogs, and had some cats too. She loved animals from a young age and never wavered. Last year, Wendy started volunteering at Animal House Cat shelter in St. Louis, MO. There she socialized cats and cleaned their enclosures. Some of the shyest and most feral cats befriended Wendy during her time there. Needless to say, Wendy is not intimidated by people's pets. Rover is an exciting opportunity for Wendy because wants to meet your pet's needs.”

15. Greg M.
About: I grew up having two dogs in my care for the last 25 years. Currently have two small dogs in my family. I know your animals are family and I will treat them with the best care. I am experienced with all sizes and ages. If your animal is high energy that is no issue I just left the active duty military and will be in the Berwyn, IL area for the next 3 months. Schedule is free all days of the week, just doing this to keep busy. Hours are very accommodating. During walks we will stick to quieter streets with less traffic, I keep my dogs on long retractable leashes but would prefer short leashes for service walks. Would love to take your dog on a one mile run to burn off energy if that is requested. Will send happy walk pictures via text. During drop ins I will require brief instructions you wish me to follow. Have no issue playing fetch or tug.
16. Rhianna P.
“Rhianna has a passion for animals. She is dedicated, organized and a fur loving person. She is also very responsive and pays attention to details. I definitely will recommend any pet owner to hire her.”

18. Jeanette A.
“Jeanette has cared for my German Shepard Lady on many ocassions. She has stayed with her for days while we were out of town and would always send pictures showing us how she was doing. She also made sure to let us know if she did well during walks and how she was eating. She has taken good care of her and is very attentive.”
19. William W.
“He was great with Maverick! My pup came back tired and still wanting to play with him, a true testament to the quick bond they shared. He was very friendly, punctual, and was available at a last minute’s notice. Highly recommend him!!”
