“Kelly kept June on a last minute request and made me feel comfortable during drop off. June had a blast with her labs. The fenced in yard was the perfect space for them to run and play. I appreciated her communication throughout June’s stay.”

“Maple absolutely loves staying with Carolyn. Coco ( a precious little Cockapoo) being there was a real bonus. They took several walks, and the two happy dogs played together all afternoon. Carolyn sent numerous pictures during Maple's stay with her. Thank you Carolyn we will definitely see you again!”

“June came to our rescue as we had an emergency and needed her last minute and saved us with watching pablo and her new fur friend Veloui! Thank you so much! SHE IS THE BEST!!!”

“Dash has been going to Kathleen for a week now & he loves her! She is very responsive, and very sweet. She sends me pics throughout the day, and I love that she takes him out for walks and play time. We will continue to book with her 😊”

About: I have a half acre of fenced in yard for dogs to run and play. I’ve had pets in my family my whole life: always dogs, a few cats over the years, a house rabbit, hamsters, ducks, fish, lizards, turtles - so many lovely creatures! I’ve worked with rescues and shelters and have taken care of elderly dogs at the end of their lifespan administering medications orally, injections, and topically. For my other job I do freelance graphic design from home and make my own schedule, so I’m very flexible with my schedule. When pet sitting at my home your pet will have my company throughout the day.

About: I’ve been caring for animals throughout my whole life and using Rover since the middle of 2022. I don’t have any pets of my own and my home is quiet and peaceful. My genuine love for animals, experience with various breeds and special needs, beautifully fenced in yard by the water, and emphasis on love and patience collectively set me apart as a dog sitter who provides exceptional care and creates a loving environment for the dogs entrusted to me. Let’s set up a meet-and-greet so I can meet your pup and you can see how much fun we’ll have together! I like to start the day with a quick potty break followed by some playful yard time to get the wiggles out, then it’s straight to breakfast. During the day we’ll stroll around the neighborhood, and sniff out some new spots. By evening it’s all about winding down, cozy vibes, and a yummy dinner to wrap up a tail-wagging day! I care for pets by observing their behavior, exercise, play, walks, and snuggles. Please bring along any favorite toys, crate, blankets, or other comfort items they love.

“Shalyn and Joe were really flexible and worked us into their schedule to help us out when we needed care for our girls. Super helpful and appreciate them for that. Our girls always love their time at their place, and their shepherd gets along great with Lady and Jazzi. The kids love our dogs and shower them with affection. We are going to miss having such great sitters since we are moving. If anyone needs A++ service and love for your pooches for a great price, these are your people!”

About: As a bonded and insured sitter, I bring years of experience with all breeds of dogs and cats—including reactive or anxious ones—and I truly love them all.

I’m flexible and committed to working around each client’s needs to ensure their pets are well cared for to the best of my ability. In my home, pets are treated with the same love and care as my own. We have a spacious, fully fenced yard on 1.5 acres, providing plenty of room for dogs to play safely. Pets are welcome to sleep in my bedroom or bed if that’s what they’re used to; however, kennels are also available for those who are normally crated at night. I strive to maintain each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and at ease. In clients’ homes, I follow their established routines and preferences to ensure a smooth, stress-free experience. Thank you for trusting me—I care for every pet as if they were my own.

“Liz and Kristopher took excellent care of our 4 month old pup on his first day away from us since we adopted him. I was happy he not only was well taken care of but that he got to socialize with their pets. Liz updated me throughout the day with photos and videos which was reassuring. I definitely plan to book them for our pups first overnight soon.”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs most of my life and wouldn’t have it any other way. My spouse and I absolutely love animals and taking care of furry pets that need a place to stay. We have two dogs of our own, Meringue (8 pounds, a Coton) and Moose (12 pounds, a Pekingese mix) We have taken care of dogs for friends, families, and have also fostered dogs. We believe and understand that dogs are family members and trusting them with others is a big decision. We treat our boarding experience the way we would like to receive it for our pups. We do this by providing consistent communication and updates to you (how are they’re acclimating, eating/drinking, playful, on their potty schedules, etc) and being responsive to questions. The ideal boarding situation would keeping your pups normal routines in place, just in a different setting so it doesn’t throw off their schedules completely. We strive for consistency for your furry family members in a happy, safe, and vacation like setting for them. *Note - we are accepting small to medium dogs only at this time. Max 30 pounds. Both my spouse and I work from home. We are able to accommodate and ensure the dogs are taken care of and kept to schedule. We take safety very seriously. We will not walk more than 2-3 dogs at a time. We have puppy gates and areas for them that are safe and can provide them room to roam and play. When they are outside we keep them on leash and have a watchful eye to ensure their safety.

Fox River Grove dog parents share their Rover experiences
We had a wonderful experience with this dog sitter! Our three-year-old lab mix, Charlie, is a high-energy rescue, so we’re always a bit cautious about new environments—but he absolutely thrived here. He especially loved the playtime with her two pups, which was such a great match for his energy level. We started with a daytime visit to help Charlie get comfortable before a weekend away, and that really paid off. Communication throughout was excellent, and we really appreciated the photo updates—it made us feel confident that he was in great hands. Best of all, Charlie came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. We wouldn’t hesitate to book again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and attentive sitter!
