About: I grew up with many pets so i’ve been taking care of them since I was very young. I’ve been dog and cat sitting for others for about 4 years now from all different ages ranging from a puppy to an elderly dog. I have a rabbit so Id be happy to rabbit sit! 🐰 I’ve also taken care of a bearded dragon! I’ve administered medication when needed such as insulin to dogs. Pet sitting fits into my daily routine through out the week from the morning time and afternoon time as well. I’m also free on weekends! I create a comfortable and loving environment in owners home so that your pet doesn’t get stressed while away. I keep their normal routine with feedings and walkings as well.
About: I grew up with a lot of pets and have done pet sitting and dog walking for the last 4 years. I have several regular families that I pet sit for and do regular dog walking. I am currently doing online classes to finish my college degree. I have a lot of free time to myself and can travel anywhere in the city to take care of your dogs. I take particular care to follow instructions for your dog, making sure to walk them and feed them at the right time. I also make sure your home is clean and well kept after I leave.
About: I am a dog mom of one, but have had dogs my entire life. My dog Moose is deaf and lives with MG, so I have practice with special needs dog. I have experience with dog walks, dog drop-ins, as well as long and short term experience with dog sitting. When working with dogs, I love them as much as I love my own. I know they might be a little nervous having someone new in their home, or taking them on a walk, so I take it as slowly and calmly as they need. In the end, I would want only the best for my dog, so I plan on doing the same for yours. I’m currently working a job where I have to be at work 8-4 OR 9-5 depending on the day! Depending on location, I can bop over for a lunch break to let the dog out if they need some extra love in between! I welcome dogs in so they feel at home. With my dog, we allow him on the furniture and he sleeps in our bed. We also respect if that is not the standard for your dog, and will follow whatever rules you feel most comfortable with. I live in an apartment in a gated community with 2 dog parks and lots of room to walk around and explore.

I am typically available in the early mornings until 7h30, afternoons and on weekends, but I am always happy to discuss specific needs to see if I can make it work for your schedule!

I am very responsible and attentive to instructions, ensuring your pet's routine is followed exactly as you prefer. Your pet's safety and happiness are my top priorities!

About: Throughout my life I have had a wide range of pets. I have had a couple dogs, cats, some rabbits, and a snake at one point. I spent a good part of my youth riding and caring for horses.

I will care for your pet however I am instructed to do so, but overall just keeping your pet happy, safe, and occupied for the time you are gone.

I work from home and have my 8 year old son with me who loves animals as well. We’re really looking forward to hearing from you and working with you soon! Thank you 😊

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a kid, growing up in a household w 5 big dogs. I’ve dog sat, house sat, and provided child and pet care for the past 15 years. I am a meditation instructor, so my job is flexible, I set my own hours and most of it is virtual. This leaves my schedule very customizable. I won’t be keeping dogs in my home at this time! I have roommates who are allergic and the space isn’t quite sufficient for all dogs.

Before booking, confirm:

- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Glencoe choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
