About: I grew up in a tropical country surrounded by animals. Naturally, learning and caring for them became my passion. I currently have a dog and a cat of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. I work from home, which allows me to give them plenty of attention, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. Your fur babies will be treated like family here! I live in a single-family home and provide a calm, safe environment where pets can relax and feel comfortable. I’ll always do my best to make sure they feel loved and well cared for while you’re away.

“I was very pleased with my pet sitting experience. Her children were very gentle with my dog. My dog had 2 meals there & she ate both meals without hesitation. This means, for my dog, that she was comfortable in her surroundings. Ariana seemed genuinely concerned & sensitive about my dog feeling comfortable & not nervous while she was their. I wouldn't hesitate to pick Ariana as your pet sitter. We plan on choosing her again when we need a pet sitter in the future.”

“Picked up a happy dog after a few days with Denis and Nikki. They have a great setup that is super dog friendly. Highly reccomend if you need boarding in the area.”

“Judy is amazing! She made our dog right at home. She also sent daily pictures so that we could see what our pup was up to while we were on vacation. I would highly recommend Judy to anyone.”

“Patricia was a wonderful host to our beloved cavalier Rudy who arrived a bit under the weather and shy. He had a playmate (Duke) waiting for him when we arrived. Rudy quickly accomodated to the unfamiliar, but dog-friendly environment. We appreciated the photos, as well.”

“Anna was fantastic with our labradoodle Ollie! She is attentive and kind. Ollie seemed so relaxed and happy to spend the weekend. We will book her again very soon!”

“My pet had spent the fantastic days in her house because I felt he didn’t want to go back home with me. I appreciated about what I could get good travel due to her care.”

“My dog Coco is always excited to see her when we board her with Christine. She is so easy to work with and has a beautiful yard and neighborhood for walks. We highly recommend Christine!”

“Christy communicated really well. I had a family emergency at the end of Kali's stay and needed to extend her stay. Christy accommodated and wished us well. She even let me pick up Kali for a "sleep over one night since I was going through Kali withdrawal. It meant she had to get up an hour early the next day so I could drop her off again on my way back to the hospital. AMAZING team her and her daughters.”

“Melissa was very responsive, forth right and welcoming to my puppy. She put my mind at ease last night when I dropped her off for an overnight stay. She’s a sweet young lady and happy to recommend her. Lots a parks around and green even through in an apartment. Excellent place.”

About: Finalmente decidí de tener mi licencia de IL para mi compañía en cuidar perros y gatos en memoria de nuestra princesa Luna que falleció hace poco. En su honor seguiré cuidando a mascotas con el mismo amor y atención que ella tuvo en sus 15 años de vida 💕 Mi atención y tiempo siempre estará presente. Los horarios se basarán a las necesidades de las mascotas en mi casa. Cualquier pregunta me pueden mandar mensaje 💕 Tengo una jaula propia y un porche privado para la seguridad de las mascotas. También hay parques cercas de mi cuando el clima lo permita para ir a caminar.
“Yamile and her family and her pets have just been amazing. Yamile is Extremely responsive, followed a special diet, took her for walks , gave me frequent updates and generally took great care of my little girl while we were away!!! In fact she seemed sad to leave when it was time for her to come home. We have already booked a follow up stay!! Thanks yamile - you have been a life saver:)”

“Jordan is wonderful! She is so nice to work and I will definitely use her again. Our Luna was super excited to see her after staying with her once before - which is really a comfort when leaving her. Knowing we'll use her again says it all!”

About: I have cared for dogs from shelters as well as senior dogs. Now I have a puppy who is 2 years old! I am pretty consistent with giving walks, play time, bathroom breaks, and meals. I also offer transportation services! I have quite a lot of free time as a full time nursing student! I’m outside everyday with my dog! I would love to find some doggy friends for my pup! I have a fenced back yard and a playful friendly dog to keep them company. The house is also dog proof! Dogs are absolutely welcomed indoors! I also have access to a number of outdoor fields for the dogs to play, a beach, dog play areas and more!
“Monica took the best care of my dog and provided several video updates each day. Her communication is prompt and she followed all the instructions I gave her. Highly recommend!”

Great Lakes pet parents share their Rover experiences
We had a great experience with Matthew! He was very flexible and accommodating when we needed to drop our dogs off earlier than originally scheduled. He kept us updated with pictures, and it was clear our dogs were having so much fun and were well cared for. We felt completely comfortable leaving them with him and would definitely book again. Highly recommend!!
