Pet Sitting in Fox Lake

“CHRIS did a great job even when one of the dogs decided that he wanted to run the house and not go on walks. Quickly, switch gears and made sure that all the animals were safe and still tried to make friends with Luke. And in the end, CHRIS did make friends with him so I believe we’ve got the start of a beautiful relationship. Thanks Chris and happy new year”

“Kathryn was great- she did drop ins on my two diabetics cats and administered their injectable medicine. Fantastic job and my cats liked her alot.”

“Norma is a wonderful sitter! We have never used a pet-sitter before, so we were nervous about leaving our cats alone for a few days. Norma immediately calmed our nerves, and took amazing care above and beyond what we expected. Highly recommend, and will absolutely book her again.”

Aaron S.

“Declan is an extremely friendly and reliable sitter! He's great with our new kittens and has been very gracious working with us on short notice with our relatively erratic schedule. Would recommend to anyone in need of a sitter!”

“Lauren was amazing taking care of my dog for the weekend and kept me updated with pics and details of how my dog was. Thanks a lot for doing a great job!!”

Timothy T.

“I read reviews for Haley before we booked our visit and they all seemed to be sparkling, as were her Visits with our two cats. She represents your company very well and is well-spoken, professional and w we’ll be very happy to ask for Haley in the future. 👍💕”

“Rebecca was a vacation saver! I needed a sitter for my dogs because of a last minute cancellation. Rebecca accepted. My pitties love her and she did very well with them. I am so grateful for Rebecca.”

Lisa K.

“Julie was a life saver when we had conflicting schedules and needed someone to help care for the pups. She was on time, sent lots of pictures, had great communication, and was so sweet to my babies. Will definitely recommend and hopefully can have her help again in the future!”

Erin S.

“Hayley and Alex are amazing! I completely trust them with my dog. They sent me great updates with pictures attached. I never have to worry when my dog is in their care. I love how much experience they have with dogs and I appreciate how they follow my instructions. I look forward to booking them again!!”

Zara V.

“Jennifer was amazing! She was available on short notice and managed our 3 pups brilliantly. We are definitely using her services again!!! Do NOT hesitate to book her!!”

Laura D.

“I appreciated Sydneys prompt response to my initial inquiry and questions/messages. She was flexible on short notice to come to meet us and do a drop in the next day. Followed all instructions (in my way too long note), checked in, sent pictures and all was well with my pup on return. Sydney is nice, mature and trustworthy. She is just starting out on Rover so for just figuring all that out — she was great. Sometimes I look for a lot of reviews but glad I gave Sydney a try for sure. Don’t hesitate — I recommend Sydney and I’ll book with her again!”

About: I have a lot of experience working with a reactive and anxious rescue pit-bull mix…my sweet baby girl, Abby!! It’s been a process but she’s made huge strides! So I’m quite familiar with having to be extremely vigilant on walks, training treats on hand, knowing when to cross the street to avoid triggers…etc. I fostered an adorable blue nose pitbull puppy! I house trained him and worked with him for a year. That was one of the hardest things I ever had to do…let that handsome boy go to his forever home! I also had a dog when I was growing up. The only way we were going o get her was if I was willing to take most of the care of her and I happily obliged! I was also the pet sitter in the neighborhood. I love all dogs! I’m currently not working so I have quite an open schedule! I’ve been a teacher for 21 years and I’m taking a break to do what I love…spending time with my girl, Abby, volunteering at Save-A-Pet, and helping people out by walking their dogs! I’m not able to have pets in my home because Abby doesn’t get along well with other dogs. I’m happy to do whatever a client wants me to do with their pet! I live a very active lifestyle, so if your pet needs to go for a few miles run not a problem! Also happy to just give scratches and make your pet feel comfortable while you’re away!

About: I've interacted with dogs of all kinds since I was young. The last four years I watched dogs and cats all around my neighborhood and many of my neighbors praised how well I got along with their pets. As I begin college I will be available weekends as well as tuesday and thursday. The rest of the week I may be available after 5pm but only if mu schedule allows. I am comfortable with any needs your furry friend may have while you are away! This includes giving walks, indoor and outdoor play, feeding, and medicating if needed. Anything to keep your freind happy.

“Kaleen is the best. My pets are NOT easy to deal with and she does it perfectly.”

“4 happy kitties when we got home. She is the BEST!!!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and horses almost my entire life! I have experience with dogs who struggle with dog aggression, leash problems, diabetes etc. I am very patient and understanding and I can’t wait to meet your furry family member! I am self employed so I am able to move my schedule around as needed to accommodate your pet and their personalized schedule. I don’t mind early morning walks as I am up with the sun normally! I am flexible to work with your dog’s current life style, needs, or whatever they may require. I have my own Australian cattle dog who is extremely friendly and willing to accompany your dog if needed or allowed!

“Emily was amazing! Our dog is typically skittish of everyone but she loved Emily right away (and so did we!). Our dog is also a little quirky but Emily didn’t mind at all. I would (and will) ask Emily to care for our dog in the future. I can’t say enough good things about how terrific Emily is!”

“Diana was fantastic! I am a first-time user on Rover, and I was thrilled with her shared interactions with my cats and keeping me up to date while I was on vacation.”

About: I’ve been an animal lover all of my life! I move frequently so I can’t have a pet just yet. This makes it easier because I still get to spend time with animals! I live with my girlfriend so we can both help take care of your animal! This allows us to work together to make sure your pets needs are met! We will be very present so we will always have an eye on your pet! We will send quick updates to help owners stay connected and reassured. We are outdoor enthusiasts so your pets will get their daily exercise everyday!

About: I'm Nickie, and on top of being an overall animal lover, I've had a number of pets in my life, and worked in the vetmed world for more 10 yrs. I'm firm with pets when necessary, but I'll love them as my own instantly. I believe in taking my time with them, and letting them come to me. In the case of cats, I dont take it personally if they run and hide. (We all know they do everything on their own terms anyway.) I've learned messes happen, and don't shy away from cleaning them up. Should I be invited into your home, I am respectful and courteous. I do everything I can to work with you and your animals' schedules. I mostly work for myself from home, but also work part-time as a special asst ~10hrs/week. Overall, my schedule is quite flexible. As for my own little zoo, I have a female pitbull named Annie B. Nannie, two female kitties named Freddie Spaghetti and Penny Parmesan, and chonky male cat name Kevin Pickles. He's 2 years younger than all my girls, but is bigger and the main bringer of chaos. I have a part time personal asst role about ~10hrs per week in Lake Forest (days vary from week to week), but primarily work for myself from home the rest of the week. These positions allow for a pretty flexible schedule to work within your animal care needs. Should you want something outside what Rover allows you to choose (sometimes odd requests/needs happen), just select what is closest and send me a message to explain. More often than not, we can make it work with a bit of explaination/clarification. I care for your animal family members in your own home and work with them on their terms, and at a pace that feels comfortable to them. I understand messes can happen and nerves can get the better of some, while others instantly want to be my new best friend. I work with patience, kindness, understanding, and respect. I am unable to care for your furlings within my own home at this time, but am happy to go to you.
