1. Coretta S.
“Coretta did a great job again! She provided detailed notes and photos immediately after each visit. She described my cats’ behavior and let me know if anything unusual happened. My cats are very comfortable with her, which reduces a lot of the stress I have when going out of town.”
2. Abi S.
“We are the happiest cat parents because we went with Abi. She is reliable and very communicative which is very important to us. We are usually not a nervous people but being new to Chicago and had to leave our cats for a couple a couple of days we were terrified because so far they always traveled with us. Abi made us feel comfortable from the first time that we reached out and I knew that we could count on her to be very communicative. Great experience with Rover. Thank you. Great experience with Abi.

“I was so pleased with the service Ashely provided to our dog kola. Ashely kept Kola while we were on vacation for four (4) days. When we retrieved him from her he didn’t miss a beat. His demeanor was the same. He didn’t have an adjustment period once home. She kept up with his toys and I can’t wait to use her services in the near future. Thanks Ashley for helping us enjoy our time away from Kola knowing he is well cared for in our absence. Pat D.”

13. Megan D.
“I trust very few people with my furbaby, Von. Megan is one of the few people I trust to care for him, and she has watched him twice now in our home. Megan is gentle, responsible, and kind. She sends regular photos and updates about how Von is doing when he's in her care, and she makes him feel loved. She also takes nice care of your home when you're away. Megan genuinely loves dogs and cats (she's a cat mom to two rescues!) and has much experience caring for animals. You will be able to trust Megan to take good care of your beloved pets!”
14. Delajah G.
“Delajah is such a friendly person who is amazing with pets. If I ever need a pet sitter I go directly to her. She is so trustworthy and I feel completely comfortable leaving her with my dogs. Delajah is so genuine in her care for pets and I can always rely on her to be a remarkable dog sitter!”
15. Alma G.
About: My friends, family and neighbors have all counted on me to look after their pets since I was 15 years old. I grew up volunteering in dog shelters and caring for my own pet growing up. I treat all pets as if they were my own! I work full time at a fitness center, but my hours are flexible and I have Fridays and Saturdays off. I typically work later in the mornings and get off in the evenings, but I am able to adjust hours accordingly. I have a cozy apartment with a huge park and dog park 3 minutes away. I make my space work for them and really spend time with them outside and playing as much as they need. My neighborhood is great for those much needed walks!
16. Samantha E.
“Samantha is such a great sitter! She’s super communicative and sends great updates during her visits. It definitely makes traveling/having to leave my cat much easier knowing that she will be in Samantha’s care ☺️”
17. Harrison S.
About: Hello! I’ve grown up loving dogs, and have been around many doodles in addition to my own. I’m looking forward to meeting your pup soon! As a young adult, I have plenty of time to play with your dog in between classes and part-time work. Contact me in advance about longer stays! There is a beautiful park outside my apartment that dogs love to run around in. I’m also happy to come to you for walks and/or bathroom breaks.
18. Madison W.
“Madison took the most amazing care of our babies, we will 100% be asking her to take care of them again. Our dogs are typically shy with strangers but they loved Madison as soon as they met her and had a wonderful time with her. She was super nice, responsible and took such cute pictures of her day with them, I’m so glad they were in such good hands with her. Thank you Madison!”
