House Sitting in Hegewisch, Chicago, IL

“Taryn gave me piece of mind staying at my house and watching after my dog and foster cat. She provided regular updates which is always helpful. I would use her again”

“Alexa did a wonderful job taking care of our dog in our home over a long holiday weekend. She was communicative, made sure Beau got his walks and play time, left our home clean and our dog happy. She followed our instructions on everything and asked questions when she wasn’t sure about something. We hope our dog wasn’t too crazy for her, but we would gladly welcome her back! So grateful we found Alexa.”

“Very happy with Daniela as a pet/house sitter while we were overseas for 2-weeks. We don’t speak a common language, but my pets don’t speak English or Spanish either, so I wasn’t gonna let a language barrier be the sole reason to not hire someone. We used an audio translator app during the meet & greet, and most apps/ txt auto translate. I did provide an emergency contact of a bi-lingual friend. Thankfully we didn’t need to involve her. At the meet & greet, we practice giving my anxious cat’s oral tablet medication with dry kibble, and she was pretty good at it within a couple tries. Reassured me she would be able to administer when we’re gone. She sent regular photos/updates of our pets which always makes us happy and comfortable while traveling. We even had some HVAC issues while we were away, and Daniela was a trooper the whole time. Twice she helped coordinate a technician coming to the house since we couldn’t be there. She left the house very clean, trash taken out, bed made. Brought all our mail in. Watered the few plants we asked. Etc. I hope she’s available next time we travel. Thank you!”

“My Dog Dottie loved Ava! Dottie has tons of energy and Ava spoiled her with long walks and lots of dog park trips. I felt so relieved that my pup was in great hands. Ava sent lots of pictures and updates and left the house nicer than she found it. The best! Already booking her again”

“Rob watched our two pets on a long weekend and was great. We love a lot of communication - and he kept us posted and sent us many pictures. Very professional and our pets loved him. We would definitely recommend!”

“Travis is a fantastic pet sitter. He watched my puppy, my bigger, older dog, and my cat while I was in Detroit for a weekend getaway. This is my second time using Rover as my first time did not go well and now I usually am too afraid to trust anyone else with my animals. I was kept updated (but not too much) and I can tell by their mannerisms that they were well cared for. I am planning on using Travis’s services again later this summer when I’ll be gone for ten days. He is a kind, empathetic, and considerate pet sitter.”

About: I have owned one dog after the other since I was 6 years of age, with my current 2nd dog who’s a boxer. My dog is a very rambunctious type who I can’t get enough of. I am available to work full time however will be working as a door dasher as well. So when I’m house sitting or coming for visits staying for a prolonged amount of time isn’t ideal but I will accept an increased price if necessary. Every morning I take my dog out for a walk followed by a bowl of food. I’m very familiar with wet and dry food, as well as medication taken via orally. My pup is also an aged fella, so any experience with older dogs having trouble getting up and down the stairs I can handle as well.

“Andrew is a godsend. We've had him to sit for our Rhodesian ridgeback and our Staffy twice, for 4 days and 10 days, respectively, and we have both times come back to 2 happy and healthy dogs, who looked at us like we had only been gone a short while. They had neither gained stress weight nor become too skinny, and we could tell Andrew had been diligent taking them out frequently. He had mixed in their favorite food toppers and given them their medicine as we asked. He is a kind person, and you can tell he thinks deeply about things, and people's and pets' feelings. He even swept and tidied up, got our mail from our mailbox, and had our packages all neatly inside. He is as the proverb says, a good traveler who leaves no mark, leaving our house exactly as, if not better than, he found it. I can't say enough about the peace of mind Andrew has given us, especially the second time, since we already knew we could trust him. We were able to go to Disney World and have a truly magical time because we knew he was caring for our dogs and our house as we would have done.”

About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is that I’ve been surrounded by animals since I was a child. I’ve cared for and loved my dog Maya for 5 years and my cat Sombra for 7 years. I also have turtles, and in the past I’ve had parrots and chickens. For me, this is not just a job — it’s a passion that has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Pet care is naturally part of my daily routine because I’ve always lived with animals. I make sure they have fresh food and water every day, give them time for walks or play, and check on their well-being. On a weekly basis, I dedicate time to cleaning their spaces, grooming if needed, and making sure they feel loved and safe. Unfortunately, my pets are currently in Honduras, but in the future we’ll be reunited. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I follow the owner’s instructions carefully to maintain their routine and make them feel comfortable. I provide fresh food and water, daily exercise or playtime, regular check-ins, and lots of affection. I also keep their space clean and safe, and give them extra attention to reduce stress while their owners are away. My goal is to make pets feel as loved and cared for as they do when their family is home.

“Moria was awesome! We got a lot of pictures and they were clearly thoughtful and considerate of our space.”

“Marissa is a fabulous addition to the Rover family, and now also for my pup! She is attentive and responsive, knows how to handle my pup who can be anxious, and needs special attention on walks when other dogs are around. I am very happy to have Marissa as a dog sitter and highly recommend her!”

About: Hello! I work remotely, therefore I am always home. Your dog will not be left unattended. I also have a flexible cancellation policy. I know life can be crazy! I am the ultimate dog lover and will treat your dog like family. I keep my dog healthy with lots of snuggles and daily walks. Your dog will receive that same care that my Fur baby receives. I can also accommodate more than one pet; the more the merrier. You can call any time to check on your baby. I am always available to talk. I have a big fenced yard and a cozy home. Your dog will always be welcomed on my lap and couch. ❤️ Since I work from home full time I have lots of time to hang out with the dogs in my yard. They are like my little coworkers! I usually take the dogs on 2 walks a day but if you have a preference on more or less, I can do that. How do I ensure your dog is safe during their visit? I have a small friendly chihuahua. He loves making new friends and sharing his toys. My yard is treated monthly for fleas and ticks (All pet friendly treatments). The yard is secure with a tall fence and no gaps. My dog is up to date with his vaccines. Please let me know if your furbaby has a set schedule if not they will follow our routine. They get plenty of supervised play time and potty breaks throughout the day. I regularly vacuum and mop my house. All furniture also gets vacuumed daily. I use pet friendly flea prevention methods inside and outside my house. We get our house and yard professionally treated to avoid ticks and fleas. But I ask that you also keep your pet on flea preventatives. All dogs that come in must be vaccinated. Please do not bring your pup if they are showing any symptoms. (Runny stools, coughing, runny nose)
