“I would love to say that Ethel is the only sitter I have tried, and I am honestly never going to try another person. My cat is always well taken care of when I am gone. Ethel communicated with me everyday and always has. Thank you!”

“Patrick took excellent care of my senior cat. He proactively sent me photos and let me know when he checked in on her. He sent photos almost daily which I appreciated. It was great to come home to a clean home and love on my cat. I'm grateful to have a great sitter closeby.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for 10 years now. I’ve taken care of many dogs from my moms clients dogs, my family dogs, my sisters dog and her friends dogs. This is something that I enjoy doing and I will make sure that I give the care that your dog deserves. To keep them entertained and engage with them. I’m currently working part time. So I have plenty of time on my hands and my schedule is very flexible! I also have a car so I haven’t problem commuting. I have a big fenced yard to keep your fur ball safe and a lot of room for them to run around. I’m very detail oriented so I’ll follow any schedule you give me and keep their dietary needs in mind.
About: I've owned and cared for all kinds of animals my whole life. Professionally, I have experience working as a dog handler, kennel attendant, dog bather, and groomer. I also have extensive experience working and caring for cats, horses, and various small animals. My +3 years working at a dog daycare facility had me safely handling a pack of up to 25 dogs; providing exercise & engagement, soft corrections, and positive reinforcement. To do so, it was necessary to be observant and in tune with the dog's behavior and always on the lookout for any signs of stress or aggression. As a bather and groomer, I was focused on hygiene but a large aspect of the job relied on my knowledge of dog behavior and training techniques. I've owned cats my entire life and have worked with a TNR rescue the past few years getting pregnant females and unneutered male cats fixed and adopted. I also have pet care insurance with animal baliee coverage in case of emergencies. I always care for every animal as if they are my own and I understand how important it is for them to feel comfortable and loved. I work part-time on the night shift, so I'm usually out of the house between 9:30pm and 2am Monday through Friday. Outside of that- my schedule is flexible. I am available on most weekends and holidays. I only book one client at a time for pet sits and boarding, so your pet(s) will have my full attention. I live in a quiet suburban neighborhood with a huge, unfenced yard. I own a variety of animal care supplies and equipment.
“Amanda was amazing and so considerate of making the schedule work when she came to take care of our car while we were away! She was so helpful with things she noticed in the house that needed to be taken care of that other people would have paid no attention to and it made our coming home after a long trip so much easier. A million stars and we will be calling her again for sure!”

“Desiree is so great! I felt super relaxed on my trip knowing she was checking on my cats. My cats really seemed to feel comfortable with her too, even my really nervous cat! Absolutely recommend, and will rebook in the future :)”

“I hired Melanie for 1 hour per day for a week while we were out of town and our son was working during the day. I was attracted to her profile and the fact that she lived nearby. We have a 90 lb doberman, so I needed someone who would be active with her as she needs lots of exercise. Melanie fit the bill! She came over a few times so she and Kai could become comfortable with each other, and we left town with little concern. Melanie gave Kai all the required attention And sent me videos and pics of the walks/runs and play each day. From what I could see and her daily logs, Melanie looked as forward to seeing Kai as Kai was to see her. I would 100% have Melanie back the next time we are out of town.”

“Shayna was Absolutely awesome. Met up before I left to meet Finn and he already took a liking to her. Went above and beyond to ensure he had everything he needed. The pics were reassuring and glad he was able to get some love. Would absolutely recommend”

“Tatyanna was amazing! She took great care of my pups while I was out of town for 3 days. She is also a dog trainer which is wonderful, and my dogs quickly warmed up to her! She was very flexible with her schedule and able to accommodate to my dogs needs all weekend! I will definitely be using her again! Thanks, Tatyanna!”

About: I am careful to heed owners instructions on how to care for their furbaby to create peace of mind and maintain a respectful relationship between the animals and humans. I work Full-time on the weekend. I can accept reservations and check-ins starting by 3PM on Mondays. Pets must be checked-out/picked up by 3PM Saturday. Currently have 2 Siberian huskies to entertain your pooch. Both huskies are well-socialized and engage very well with other canines. House is cleaned and sanitized on the daily to prevent any contagious illnesses. Exercise is done through nature trails in the area. If owners are comfortable with dog parks, I am a member to multiple private dog parks to ensure privacy and freedom to run around from other unauthorized/stranger canines.

About: Hello, my name is Ryan and animals always have been a huge part of my life! I am certified in dog training by A.B.C( animal behaviour college). I have had my fair share of animals in my life, big dogs small dogs, birds,cats and fish. I am comfortable with all shapes sizes and temperaments with animals. I tend to be on the relaxed side. As i let them on my couch bed and generally wherever else they want to go. I do not have a yard but am a firm believer in multiple walks a day. A tired puppy/dog is non destructive! I am realiable and trust worthy and will honor any wishes you may have when it comes to your pet! I am not a screamer as i believe animals are extremely sensative. I have worked in just about every pet store and I'm very familiar with all types of leashes,food, toys, basically anything sold in pet stores. I do not have children and work from home, so i have 100 percent open availability. My main goal is to have both clients happy and satisfied and that means you and your animal! I tend to spoil my animals, so let me spoil yours as well! I hope to hear from you and let me become your animals new best friend!!
“Hades loved being taken care of by Melanie! She attended to his needs and followed all our notes! Easy to talk to and trustworthy. I'll be hitting up Melanie for an future cat sitting!”

About: I’ve always had dogs in my home, from puppies to big German shepards and old animals. I have a nice sized yard for several pets to play in. Dogs who visit always feel at home, with toys to play with and treats to eat and dog beds to lay on. I’m a devoted and obsessive dog lover who would love to meet new dogs and provide care for them when they need it! I also have two cats who get along with other cats, but if your dog hates cats, don’t worry! My cats know they’re best hiding places. I’m available all day on weekends as well as week day nights. I have a big love for animals and I would love to care for yours!
About: I treat every pup like my own. If your dog isn't napping or resting, we'll be active and engaged. That may include playing with their favorite toy, going on a walk, or getting plenty of belly rubs and pats. I believe dogs thrive on love, attention, and activity. Therefore, I make sure they're never bored or lonely. I'm currently a student at UIC with one class online and one class in person. My schedule is very flexible, which allows me plenty time for walks, drop-ins and overnight care. Your dogs safety and comfort are my top priorities. On walks, I let your pep lead the way so they can explore at their own pace. I love finding nearby parks where they can burn energy. It I'm caring for a pet in your home, I'll always follow your instructions closely to maintain their normal routine.
About: I absolutely love animals. I have previously worked at a pet store where I had the responsibility of taking care of cats, kittens, dogs, puppies, reptiles, and exotic animals. I am heavily involved in the fitness world currently and I occasionally go to the gym and do my home workouts which my schedule can always be adjusted. Pet care will be no problem at all! Spacious fenced backyard. I can accommodate to any need that you or your pet may have. Your pet will never be alone and will have so much fun in my care. Frequent potty breaks and walks.
“The fur babies love being at Jenifer’s! She is home away from home for them. I always feel at ease when Blue (and now Sheba) are there. She loves them like her own. Very kind and trustworthy. Our extended family.”

“Melissa was great!! Like most I was so anxious to leave my dog while at work all day. She was awesome with my dog and sent pics of him looking so happy and gave him treats. I video chatted with her prior and knew she truly is an animal lover.”

Hickory Hills cat parents share their Rover experiences
Noah was amazing with our cats, Asher and Luna. He took such great care of them while we were away, and it was such a relief to know they were in good hands. He even gave Asher his inhaler without any issues, which we really appreciated—it’s not the easiest thing to do! We came home to two happy, relaxed kitties, and we’d definitely trust Noah to watch them again. Highly recommend!
