About: Something that sets me apart is that I’m a dog trainer, actively pursuing to achieve certification for professional dog trainer. I participate regularly with dog training and actively see a dog training mentor weekly. I have loved dogs since I was very little. I do a pretty good job at reading their body language and how to anticipate their next moves.I’m able to reduce the anxiety a dog might have being away from you and with a new person. I use positive reinforcement by being gentle and firm and I try to be fun and playful with the dog or puppy. I have two dogs. I actively take them out, I feed them every morning and night. I bathe when they need it. I walk them and take them to dog classes or improve any behavior issues they might have or come across. Apart from my dogs, I participle imagine dog training classes as a student and to demonstrate dog training techniques. Such as: Sitting, downing, standing, staying and walking nicely in lead, etc. Maintaining owners schedule such as feeding, walking, medications, etc. Ensuring the cleanliness of the dog and dog waste in the yard or other properties. I will actively play with the dogs to tire them out and do what I can to ensure the health and enjoyment of the dog.

About: My doggies taught me everything I know. They are no longer here - they went to doggy heaven and we miss them all the time. My teens and I have a lot love to give and want to share with your doggy. You can rest assured we would treat your doggy as if it were ours. Also, anything under 10.5 miles for more than 1 day I offer pick up and dropp off. I work from home and have a very tight routine in our home that will help your pet feel calm and secure. Since pets thrive on routine it will bring them peace and calmness. I can give extra walks when it's a nice day and make sure we stay active if need or relaxed and enjoying a lazy "dog day". I have a quiet, grassy backyard that gives dogs a calm place to sniff, stretch their legs, and enjoy fresh air. It's a low-stress space that's great for potty breaks and relaxed outdoor time. I'm very mindful of which dogs are a good fit for my space and always put safety and comfort first so that your pups feel happy and at ease while they're with me. Doggies are allowed on our beds and couches and even our bathrooms :) - we keep a light sense of humor

About: My love and experience with animals starts at home with my own two pets, who I care for as part of my family. I’m very hands-on with their health and happiness, from preparing homemade dog food and treats to making sure they receive plenty of exercise, attention, playtime, and love. Over the past three years, I’ve also had the rewarding experience of fostering approximately 33 dogs with Border Tails Rescue, Tiny aln Tall Rescue, Chicago Rescue Authority and Anderson Humane. Fostering has given me experience caring for dogs with different personalities, backgrounds, routines, and needs. I understand that some dogs need extra patience and time to feel safe and comfortable, especially when adjusting to a new environment. Whether I’m boarding your pet, taking them for a walk, or pet sitting, my goal is to provide the same level of care, patience, and affection that I give my own pets. I want every pet in my care to feel safe, loved, comfortable, and right at home. 🐾❤️ I am currently a Special Ed Paraprofessional at a local high school therefore I'm available late afternoons, evenings and open weekends. I’m comfortable giving pets plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and care while making sure they feel safe and happy. My schedule does vary, and on certain weekdays, weekends, school breaks, and days off, I may be available all day. I keep my Rover calendar updated so you can easily see my current availability. I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pet, and I’ll always do my best to follow your pet’s normal routine and any special instructions you provide. I’m also happy to send updates and photos so you can know how your pet is doing while they’re in my care! Over the past three years, I’ve fostered more than 30 dogs through organizations including Tiny N Tall Rescue, Anderson Humane, Border Tails Rescue, and Chicago Rescue Authority. This experience has allowed me to care for dogs with many different personalities, backgrounds, and needs, teaching me patience, consistency, and how to help dogs feel safe in a new environment. In my home, pets are treated like family with plenty of love, attention, playtime, and cuddles. I also have a private, fenced backyard where dogs can safely enjoy outdoor time and play. I follow each pet’s normal routine and strive to make their stay feel like a comfortable home away from home.

About: We have experience of raising our 4 year old pitbull since a pup! She loves company and we work from home allowing us to provide all the care to any dogs in need! We work from home so our schedule is super flexible. Any specific routines or schedules that your dog needs just let us know and we’ll make do! Our dogs are allowed throughout the entire basement and first floor. We have an unfenced yard for them to play and also have an additional crate. This is a dog-friendly neighborhood with perfect paths to go on a walk.

About: I am reliable, flexible, and energetic, and know what your pet needs to be well cared for and happy. I can even train if needed. I work full time during the day, but not far from home, so I can swing over anywhere first thing in morning, at lunch, dinner time, and bed time. I can feed, check on, let out, and walk pet breakfast, lunch, dinner, and/or bed time during the week, and on weekends, anytime day or night!

About: I’ve taken care of my dog, Leo, for the past 14 years. I love dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages and would be so excited to spend time walking and playing with any dog! I have extensive experience caring for senior pets. I am a recent graduate of the University of Wisconsin-Madison. While looking for a full-time position, I am widely available for all your pet care needs! I can follow any care instructions provided for me to care for your pet. I’m comfortable walking, playing, watching, feeding, and much more with your dog.

“Carly did a great job and was flexible with the plans. My dog loved her. Even my maid met her and spoke how wonderful she was. Will use her again and will recommend her to anyone. Ray. Sylvan Park.”

About: I've taken care of my family pets since I was a kid - we had both dogs and cats. I've taken care of my own mini Aussiedoodle for the past 2 years now since she was a 16 week old pup. And I’ve now watched 10+ different dogs on Rover over the past year, of all different sizes, ages, and needs. I have several repeat customers and promise to always take the best care of your little pup while you’re away as I know it can be sad to leave them behind. I’m welcome to accepting new customers all the time! I will send plenty of pictures and videos on the daily if you wish! I tend to get obsessed with the dogs I’m watching since they’re so cute that I end up taking photos of every moment they look cute (which is pretty much all the time) If your dog happens to need any medications, I will gladly do so and have done this in the past for a couple Rover stays. I also have experience taking care of a dog recovering from surgery - I often had my dog (Indie) in a onesie to protect her stitches, on schedule for her medications, and relaxing as much as possible. I've also been around a couple senior dogs that need special accommodations. I’m home Friday to Monday so I’m flexible during the days on these dates. Otherwise, I’m free after 6pm on Tuesday to Thursday. We go on plenty of walks throughout the day to make up for the missed sniffs and activity that the dogs would find in a yard. Whenever we leave the house my dog - Indie - always rides in a dog car seat with a seat belt, and an extra seat belt can be used for another dog as well. I bring my dog for a ride every. single. time as long as I don’t have to go inside, so they are always welcome to come in the car and get buckled up for a ride :)

About: I’ve taken care of every kind of dog since I was 15. Neighbors, friends, family have all relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their fur babies. I’m an animal lover who used to be a jr. Naturalist; I love all animals. I’m currently working a before school care program and an after school care program with the park district. I am available for walking pets starting at 9am-3pm (Monday- Friday) all year round. For pet setting it depends on the time and date. I live in a townhouse with a family friendly neighborhood; I don’t have a fenced in yard, however, I do have a park that we can let them ran around. Your pet won’t be lonely in our home we have a fur baby ourselves, Nigel (west highland terrier). I would look after your fur baby like my own, walks three to four times a day, fed as often as needed, play time, love and compassion. Your fur baby is apart your family and will be cared for that way.

About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I’ve helped friends and neighbors by providing dependable pet sitting, dog walking, and daily care while they were away. I’ve also been a pet owner for over 15 years, caring for both a small Shih Tzu and a large Golden Retriever weighing over 80 pounds, so I’m comfortable handling pets of all sizes and energy levels. My experience includes feeding, walking, playtime, basic routines, and making sure pets feel safe and loved in their home environment. I also have experience caring for cats, including feeding and cleaning litter boxes. I treat every pet like my own and understand how important it is for them to feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away. I currently work part-time from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to be available both during the week and on weekends. This means I can provide consistent care, regular walks, and plenty of attention throughout the day, depending on your pet’s needs. I care for pets as if they were my own, whether they are in my home or in their own familiar space. I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved by sticking closely to their normal routines for feeding, walks, playtime, and rest. I enjoy spending quality time with them, giving them attention, affection, and exercise based on their needs and energy level. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all care instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, litter box cleaning, walks, and any special routines. I always make sure pets have fresh water, a clean environment, and plenty of companionship so they never feel lonely while their owners are away. My goal is to help every pet feel happy, relaxed, and well cared for.

About: hello! my name is charlize i’m 22 i’ve grown up with animals my whole life and now i currently work at an animal hospital helping taking care of the dogs and cats that come in to see the vet. i’m very experienced with animals and taking care of animals and i love all different kinds of animals. i’ve worked at the animal hospital now for two and a half years and its been the most amazing two and a half years of my life. i am also going to school to practice becoming a veterinarian so i am really excited to meet all new furry friends for more experience. i am good with administering medication, i am good with dealing with aggressive dogs, i am good with any diabetic cat or dog with dosing insulin. you name it and i can do it!! i work part time hours at the animal hospital during the summer months and full time during fall and winter but i am extremely flexible, as i work on my terms and conditions. i am willing to fit last minute accommodation if it works with my personal schedule but i can also take time out of my day if needed to walk a dog etc. i unfortunately cannot have pets in my building but i am more than willing and able to go to anyone else’s beloved home to pet sit, or walk, or feed animals. i come in with a soft expression and wait for the animals to get used to me and my scent and then i wait for their approval to come further in their home/space. i am very careful to not touch them when they don’t want to be touched and i am always patient with animals especially if they’re new to my route.

About: The phrase man’s (or woman’s) best friend is extremely fitting for me! I connect so well with animals, and have always been a reliable source for family, friends, neighbors, and more! I have dog walked, pet sit for cats and dogs, and taken care of pets (including my own dog) since I was 10 years old. Animals are a huge part of my life and I want to surround myself with them more! I currently am a sports photographer so I only go in at most once per week to capture photos and videos, and then I edit at home. Sometimes it gets lonely, so I would absolutely love to take care of a pet whenever I can! I have a perfect dog park in my neighborhood, a nice walking path where sometimes there are other furry friends out for walks so we can meet them if they are interested, and a cozy home that welcomes any pet!

“Thank you for the last minute YES!”

About: Hi there! I'm a lifelong dog lover who recently relocated to the USA. While I love it here, I deeply miss the family dogs I had to leave back in my home country. Having grown up surrounded by dogs, I'm so excited to open my heart and home to your furry family member! What sets me apart is the personalized attention your dog will receive. I am currently home full-time, so caring for dogs is my main focus. My husband also works from home, which means there is almost always someone in the apartment, and your pup will rarely, if ever, be left alone. I live in a comfortable apartment with wonderful green spaces nearby for walks and outdoor time. I'm happy to adapt to your dog's unique personality and routine. If your pup loves to stay active, I'd be delighted to take them on walks or runs. If they prefer a slower pace, they're welcome to curl up on the couch with me for plenty of cuddles and relaxation. Having grown up with dogs, I understand how difficult it can be to leave your beloved pet with someone else. I'll care for your dog as if they were my own and keep you updated with regular photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you're away. I can't wait to meet your pup! I am home during the day, which allows me to provide attentive, personalized care throughout your dog's stay. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, so I can easily follow your pup's established feeding, bathroom, exercise, and medication schedule. I take care of all daily walks, playtime, and one-on-one attention to ensure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved. My husband works from home full-time, so while I am your dog's primary caregiver, there is almost always someone else in the home as well. This means your dog will have plenty of companionship and will rarely, if ever, be left alone. With our flexible schedules, your pup can enjoy frequent potty breaks, regular exercise, and lots of affection throughout the day. Your dog's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I live in a quiet, peaceful neighborhood in a ground-floor apartment, which is ideal for dogs since there are no steep stairs or elevator rides to navigate. We also have a securely gated balcony where your pup can safely enjoy some fresh air and watch the world go by. I keep my home dog-proofed, free of hazards, and calm so every guest feels comfortable and secure. While I am the one providing your dog's care, my husband works from home, so there is almost always someone in the home as well. During walks, I always keep dogs securely on a leash, stay aware of our surroundings, and prioritize their safety at all times. I treat every dog in my care with the same love, patience, and attention I would give my own.

About: I have cared for animals all my life, I work with both large and small dogs, as well as cats. In recent years I have also worked in elder care. I am a stay at home pet-sitter. I am available for boarding and dog-walking. I am available for day care as well. Available all day long. I have no pets of my own and I have no little kids. There is a backayrd, but it's not fenced. I have a possibility to take out your pet as often as needed.
