4. Brandy D.
“Brandy is truly amazing and was wonderful with my dogs from their very first interaction. I trust her in my home and with my two dogs. One of my dogs has some behavioral issues that can cause him to be aggressive with other dogs. Brandy is well equipped to handle dogs who aren’t the easiest to walk and who others might shy away from.”

13. Laura R.
About: I have 2 chiweenies, they are 6 and 7years old, they are my babies. One is an old soul the other is a teenager at heart. They are curious at first (with cats and dogs) but after a few min they just relax on their couch. I know the importance of having someone to trust with your furbabies. Native to Chicago- northwest side. Flexible job, I am available if you need to take a weekend trip or want me to stop by to feed your pup or take them for a quick walk. I will send you picture or video updates if you want to see their cute face too! I have my own car and can take your pup to the dog park or for a walk around the block. I am very patient and have experience with puppies. Can’t wait to meet you! My home is 5miles away from the O'hare Airport (about 15-20min). 1 bus away from Wrigley. Nearest train/metra station is Jefferson Park. I currently work from home and I’m very flexible with my schedule. I prefer early morning drop-off (between 6-8 am), since we go on our daily walk around 8:30 to get everyone comfortable on neutral ground. When the weather is great, I like to stay outside with the pups just a little extra. I have a fenced house, and 2 friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. I have an extra room if your pet prefers its own space to sleep. I have extra crates and extra blankets, but feel free to bring anything that will make them feel comfortable. I keep a clean home but they are allowed to be roaming the house during the day. For our feline friends I have a litter box and toys.
14. John D.
“John is the best!! My dog loves him and gets a lot of exercise!! He loves loves going for runs and John also ran with the big guy! Absolutely recommend John! Very reliable and consistent! Thank you!!!”
15. Isaiah P.

16. Julie H.
About: I’ve been around dogs and cats my entire life. I’m interested in helping pet owners out with walks, feedings, etc while getting extra love from pups. I’m currently the owner of 2 cats (and 2 little humans) but missing the love and cuteness from dogs. I’m comfortable with all size dogs. I’m looking for something that works around my current weekday schedule. I’m available during the week approx 9am-2.30pm for walks, feedings, extra cuddles and check-ins. I’m gentle and patient with animals. I have 2 of my own that I’ve cared for since 6 weeks old and now almost 13 yrs old. I’ve cared for puppies to adult animals.
17. PATRICIA B.
“Listen people! If you want someone to watch and love you puppy as if it was there’s Patricia is your girl! She has watched our dog 4 different times, one of those times being for a two week stay and cleaned up played with them for an hour each day even though I didn’t pay for that. She is truly amazing and can handle any dog. Also on a side note please tip guess they loss 20% of there earnings from Rover.”
18. Eric N.
“Eric was GREAT! He communicates very well and shares pictures and videos pretty regularly. It was a pleasure working with him! I highly recommend him.”
19. Corey & Robert D.
“Corey is the most caring person I know. She cares deeply for all pets and goes out of her way to make sure your pet will be as comfortable as possible. From walks around the neighborhood to conservations with your pet she does it all. I would trust her with any pet.”
