Pet Sitting in Freedom

“Thanks again for taking great care of Luna & Marci! Travis has been watching my dogs for years before he joined the Rover platform and my dogs always love to see him. Glad he made the move to Rover - just makes it even better having booking, payment, communication all in one convenient app.”

“This was our first time having Sara care for our cat who has a very strong personality. Sara was amazing - caring, communicative, and our cat loved her attention. She was attentive and on schedule, and went over and above. We will certainly invite Sara back into our home!”

“We are so appreciative of Leslie-Ann’s help! Bella is really comfortable around her and Leslie-Ann goes above and beyond to ensure our expectations are met!”

“Josh does a fantastic job watching Aspen. He always makes sure she enjoys his company and that she gets energy out. Josh also goes above and beyond, leaving detailed notes about his visits and takes plenty of pictures. I would highly recommend Josh to care for your dog.”

About: I currently have one dog at home, and he loves to have friends during the day. He is an Aussie-doodle, and is very playful. He is almost 6 years old. I am excited to offer care for other pets in my home. Your pet will be loved just as much as Tracker while they are with me. I am patient with all animals and have been around them my entire life. I am able to take care of puppies as well as senior dogs as well. I have had a lot of practice with giving medications for dogs. I will ensure that your animals needs are met anytime they are within my home. I am more than happy to send updates and pictures as often as you would like so you know how they are adjusting and doing. I work from home and I am able to watch and play with animals during the day and after work. Our yard is fenced in and has a large backyard to play in. I have three girls that I bring to school from 715-8am and then pick them up from 230-330. On the weekends I am available the entire day as I do not work weekends. I have a large fenced in yard. Anytime the animals are outside they gate will be shut. I will also endure any small animals are on a leash as they are outside so they are watched after. During the day, the animals will be within eye sight as I work upstairs.

“Cassandra was fantastic! She stopped by the week before for a meet-and-greet and immediately sat on the floor to let our three dogs meet her. They took to her immediately. She provided lots of pictures and information when she came over, so we knew just how the dogs were. Highly recommended!”

About: I had my own dog who lived to be 18! He required senior citizen care when he got old, I’ve handled and dealt with elderly dogs. I’ve taken care of neighbors, family’s, & friends dogs my entire life, filling the soft spot we all have in our heart for pups! I work as a nurse so on my days off I love to spend time outside with some furry friends! They provide a good stress relief for the chaotic days. I will respect your home and your dogs personal space! I will do whatever you ask of me to do, making the dog feel safe at home with a new person around!

“Good communication, worked well with my pets.”

“We all love Stacy! She exudes a warm and calm presence and we trust her completely with our precious fur babies. She gives us peace of mind when leaving town that our kitties are in the best hands. Even our slower to warm up cat will initiate snuggles with her. We will continue to rebook as long as we can!”

About: I have about 10 years of experience with dogs and cats and grew up having aquarium pets like lizards and frogs. I currently have a 1 year old Great Dane mix fur baby (so the big babies don’t scare me) and 2 tabby cats. Both cats brought to me by the cat distribution system 😌 I promise to love on and treat your fur babies as if they are my own. I expect that for my own from a pet sitter. I specialize in walks (can train if interested), day check ins and playtime, overnight cares/feeding, and out of town care. If you’re not sure, just ask, and if I can’t I might know someone who can! I have a very flexible schedule and am available 7 days a week. It really depends on the service you need. Occasionally I will take a vacation as well. I like to meet all pets beforehand to make sure it’s a good fit for everyone. If the energy is off it won’t work. I want you and your pet to be comfortable with me. It also gives me a chance to see how you engage with your pet to keep that in alignment as well. If it’s a good feel for all, any rules, routines, emergency contact information, needs, don’ts/dos, etc. can be discussed and the initial meet. I want you to feel comfortable about your pet’s care so you can enjoy your workday or vacation without worry. I will send pictures and updates, something I really appreciate with my sitters as well!

About: I recently moved back to the Fox Valley to be closer to family after running my own successful dog daycare and boarding business from my home for 15.5 years. I've also been a dog parent since 2004. Prior to opening my dog sitting business I worked as an assistant dog trainer for Dog's Best Friend Training using positive reinforcement training methods. I require a meet and greet for all new clients before confirming services so you and your dog(s) can meet me in person so we can discuss their care and so your dog(s) can become familiar with me. My schedule is flexible and I will work with you to meet your pet's needs. I enjoy taking dogs for walks, to local dog parks, playing and giving lots of cuddles to ensure they get all the exercise, love and attention they deserve. I will follow your instructions to make sure your dog's specific needs are met. I am a detail orientated person so I'll ask lots of questions during our initial meet and greet and I'll send updates and pictures of my time spent with your dog.

About: I’ve been helping take care of dogs since I was 6 years old. My friends and family know to call me first when they need someone to help with their fur babies because I am reliable and I take my job seriously. My primary job, I work from home so I’m home all day with my dog. We take daily walks (weather permitting) and spend a lot of time in the yard playing. I revolve my life around the needs of my kids (teenage boys 18 and 16) and my dog, Molly. I go outside for every potty break so the dogs are never unattended. I pay attention to the dogs ways of telling me they need to go outside.

“Angela was amazing to work with, especially with our short notice care request! She was very timely with her visits to Sophie and always sent comments and photos with each visit. We are so happy to have found our go-to for any of Sophie's future care needs, and cannot recommend her highly enough!!”

About: As a long time owner of dogs, cats, birds, and reptiles I have the skills, patience, and experience to safely and lovingly watch over your fur friend/s. Being around all the pets especially dogs has always been a natural passion of mine. As much of a service this is for you and your dog, it is also very much beneficial to my own health and well being. I have learned over the years that dogs respond very well to my voice, commands, and body language. A lot of love, care, and compassion to give. I have an open schedule and availability with flexibility to meet any requests! Monday-Sunday. Mornings, Afternoons, or Evenings. I look forward to being a helping hand in enhancing the lifespan and overall well being of your best friend :) My current daily routine and schedule is in need of dog walking and pet sitting. I am focusing on pet care and curating a more pet filled lifestyle. Although I will not be using my own home for pet care services, I can guarantee that the level of care given will be treated as if it were my own.

“Michelle is very sweet and trust worthy. I am so thankful she was able to take care of our kitties while we left and I know my cats definitely enjoyed her coming over, feeding & playing with them! She even went above and beyond to take our trash to the curb. 10/10 recommend Michelle :)”

About: I am very proud to be a "fear free handler". That's a big thing for me, if an animal is uncomfortable, I am 100% uncomfortable along with them.. learning their little quirks and finding ways to do things in the best way possible for that specific animal is what I do and I absolutely love doing it. I promise your animal will be cared for deeply while in my care. My passion has always been working with animals, providing them with the care and respect they deserve and I have extensive experience in the field. I’ve worked in horse barns, animal shelters, and dog boarding facilities, and I’m skilled in administering all types of medications, including insulin. Whether it’s feral cats or reactive dogs, I have the patience and expertise to help them adjust and thrive, including building trust with new people. I understand how intimidating change can be for animals, and I’m dedicated to making those transitions as smooth as possible. Currently, I’m expanding my skills in training dogs with behavioral challenges. I’m already working with a client who has made tremendous progress under my guidance. Additionally, I’ve dedicated countless unpaid hours to caring for animals, driven solely by my love and commitment to their well-being. When you entrust me with your pet, I promise to care for them as if they were my own, providing compassion, patience, and unwavering dedication in every situation. I am pretty open with my schedule. I will love your babies like my own and am currently doing rover full time so there's no job getting in the way of your animals care. I am a perfectionist. If you tell me you want something done in a specific way or at a certain time, please let me know!! I'd be more than happy to jump through hoops to give your baby(s) what they need when and how they need it. I will put your animal above everything else, that's what I'm paid for and that's what I love doing.

“Sarah did a wonderful job with my cat who needed rx meds and food twice a day. She was easy to work and communicate with, and I felt very at ease with having her take care of my boy. I would 100% recommend her to anyone!”

“Olivia was fantastic. Very dependable. She went above and beyond with our 2 cats. Sent pictures every day and great feedback. Will definitely use her again.”
