“I’m so impress! Jackie is so responsive and always update the condition of my dog Bentley. She is very good with dogs. Thank you Jackie for taking care of my baby. I highly recommend her and will use her in the future.”

“We could not ask for a better first experience. Tanya took excellent care of our new puppy. From potty breaks to play times she was there with him sending updates and pics. We were able to enjoy our night knowing he was in good hands. Thanks again.”

“1st impressions is everything. It was Friday and we needed a puppy sitter on Sunday for Kira. Our first time using Karina and she took our Kira with open arms and a smile. Taking care of Kira included not just feeding and potty breaks, but also socializing with her dogs and a couple of videos of play time. THATS LOVE! Highly recommend her for puppy/dog parents who want a pleasant experience for that special member in the family. When we took Kira home, she was so exhausted from the fun she had with the other dogs, she was asleep for the rest of the night.”

“Sasha is great! I have an unpredictable work schedule that she was totally willing to accommodate. She has a great personality and is a good pack leader for the dogs. Her house is an inviting environment with a nice backyard for the pups to run around in.”


“Our puppy had a great time with Diana! She was responsive and helped provide the daily exercise our dog needs. Had a lot of great feedback after day care and we appreciated her positivity! Would use her again.”

“Casey is an amazing sitter! We had a meet and greet beforehand. Usually Millie is a little scared of people when she first meets them, but not with Casey. Millie went right up to her and walked around the park with her without any issue. The day of, Casey sent us updates and photo of Millie’s stay. Millie had a good nap when she got home, so we know she had lots of play time to tire her out. We will definitely book Casey again!”


“Arlene is great! Benny was so excited to return to her house. She went out of her way to make pickup easy - taking him to the park, where we were able to meet her. Great service and care.”


“Hands down one of the best sitters EVER! My cuddle bug had been going to her previous sitter for about 5 months and was still trying to warm up to them. However, after a week with Jonelle, Gina was wiggling her butt ready to go. One day she just walked into Jonelle's house without turning back to say bye or to whine. She's truly amazing and makes sure your dogs are treated as part of her family. Her family is just as great about letting your dog have space and build up comfort to bond with them. If you want someone who has great communication, is compassionate, and loves on your dogs (to the point you might consider your dog a traitor) then Jonelle is absolutely the person for you. All around a great person and sitter.”

“River loved her doggy day care stay with Brian. The meet and greet before was helpful and greatly appreciated as well. Would highly recommend Brian to take great care of your fur baby!”

“David was great with our pup Chase. He's usually very shy and slow to warm up to people. However he really took to David and Pinto super quickly. David shared pictures and videos of them playing and sleeping throughout the day. I would definitely recommend him for any dogsitting needs.”

“Quyeisha is great! She’ll give you updates and answers your questions promptly! She gave a lot of compliments with Bruno which tells a lot on how great of an Alpha she is! Will definitely book her whenever we visit Chicago next time!”

About: I have a dog of my own that I have trained since 8 weeks. And I've recently rescued 2 brother/bonded cats. I am committed to taking the best care of both human and cat and canine clients. My goal is to make clients’ days easier by making sure their pets enjoy great days that include exercise and loving companionship. I have experience with potty training, leash training, general behavior training, and more. I am here to help your pet with anything they need! Can walk, run, bathe, feed, cuddle, train, give medicine, etc. Can't wait to meet your little creatures! I currently work from home and am flexible to drop-in or go for walks throughout the day. Early morning, mid day or evening works for me! Safety, comfort, and care are my top priority when handling your dog on a walk or at your home. Every animal has unique needs and I am equipped to take special care of each one individually. I work full-time but am active around the neighborhood, evenings and weekends are available for any amount of work or time needed to take care of your pet. Dogs are certainly more comfortable in their homes and familiar environments, I am sure to always respect their space and am highly attentive to their moods and adjust accordingly.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs all my life! From neighbors to friends/family! It’s my favorite and brings me so much happiness! That’s why I currently own two small dogs. Im currently a stay at home mom and would love to host some different pups! My two schnauzers love making friends. It would be awesome for everyone! I walk my dogs multiple times a day and take them to my local dog park! I’m home so I’m able to focus all my attention on your little one.
About: As a child of a mother who was raised on a farm, we always had dogs, cats, bunnies, hamsters, gerbils, fish and birds growing up. As an adult that trend continues. Since 2012 I've been involved in dog rescue. Between volunteering at Chicago Animal Control and Care and fostering dogs with ALIVE Rescue, Be Fido's Friend and One Tail at a Time, I've learned a lot about animal health, happiness, welfare, training, dog introductions, play, etc. I started my Rover business while my now deceased and beloved Pit Bull, Stella, was battling cancer. The bills were mounting and doggie daycare has been a blessing. Stella loved the doggie company and I was able to provide quality care for her. Fast forward a couple years later and I now have regular clients and a new ones that love my testimonials. We're open for business and are excited to meet your beloved fur family members. Your dog will be lovingly cared for while staying with me. **PS - if I'm not available the dates you need, message me anyway. We'll discuss your pet and I may be able to make an exception. Also, if you're looking for a few hours a day daycare, please message me. Options! Thank you. I have worked full time from my home for years, and have routines in place that my pack and visiting dogs appreciate. We have plenty of breaks during the day for a backyard play and sunshine in my fenced back yard. During inclement weather, we have a basement play area. With 11 years experience fostering every demographic of dog, I have the experience to assure my fur baby guests are safe, needs met and are happy. I have a detailed client profile that I ask my client's parents to complete that helps me to provide the very best environment based on their unique needs. I am unable to accept unneutered males (medical exceptions may apply). Dogs must be dog and human friendly. For the most part, we are a cage free environment where doggie guests are able to interact and be safely socialize with each other.

“Pamela watched our pup Winnie for the second time and Winnie was so excited to see her when I dropped her off! Pamela was great about sending pics and updates throughout the day which we really appreciated”


“The best Rover caregiver! We feel so lucky to have found her! Camille sincerely enjoys having our pup stay with her. She welcomes him into her home and treats him like family along with her sweet dog Rosie. Our dog enjoys a stress-free day being at home and part of a second family, taking leisurely walks along their quiet tree-lined neighborhood, sniffing for squirrels and rabbits in the park, indulging in play with Rosie anytime he wants in her grassy back yard along with songbirds to boot. What more could a dog ask for? We couldn't be happier having our dog stay with Camille. Thank you!”
