“We feel very lucky to have found Sarah! She watched our 2 dogs and cat for a week while we were out of town. We have never left our 2 rescue dogs since we have had them, so needless to say they are very attached to us. Sarah was amazing! They warmed up to her very quickly and had no problems at all.. Sarah pays attention to details and even sent us daily updates with pictures and/or videos. It was so nice to be able to relax and know our pets were in good hands and comfortable at home. We will definitely have Sarah watch our pets again!”

“The day before leaving town, our senior dog turned up with a mystery paw injury-which meant he had trouble getting outside, eating, everything. Elena didn’t hesitate to take on the extra work and to give him (plus our other dog and cats) the TLC he needed to heal up. Everyone seemed happy and well cared for when we returned!”

“Melanie is absolutely amazing! From the moment we met, I could tell my dog was in good hands. She took such loving care of him, sent me daily photos and updates, and made sure he stuck to his routine. It’s so hard to find someone you can truly trust, but Melanie went above and beyond. I’ll definitely be booking again — highly recommend her to anyone who wants their dog treated like family! 💕🐶”


“My Bella loved Ann the moment they met. Ann was responsible, respectful , kind and calm. I will definitely trust and ask Ann to watch my fur baby again when we go away! She was on time and sent me photos and updates. Thank you so much !!”

“Madison is by FAR the BEST pet sitter we have ever had! She stayed in our home for a week with our dog during our vacation. She followed all care instructions to a tee, and provided multiple, detailed updates and photos each day. She is incredibly communicative, trustworthy and detailed-oriented. And not to mention the absolute sweetest - and our dog loves her! We so appreciate you, Madison!”

About: I have grown up with pets since I can remember. I have had pets ranging from cats and dogs to birds and my daughter even had a hedgehog. I currently have 3 dogs and 6 cat. I love animals. I have pet sat several times for friends, I even kept a friends 2 dogs for 3 weeks when she went on her trip to New Zealand. I have two years of professional pet sitting experience working with another company when I lived in Texas. I just recently moved from there. I recently moved from Texas to Illinois. I have open availability and hope to bring in a steady income once again pet sitting. I worked for a year as a professional pet sitter through a company in Texas. I can follow any routine with your pets in their own homes for their needs. I have the ability to stay overnight with them so that they are in the comfort of their own homes.

“Kim is so sweet !!! As a dog owner I always hate having to leave my girls anywhere but Kim is such a good dog caretaker and I could have ease knowing my girls were in good hands !! Got updates as the day went on ! And she took the time to love and care for the girls !! 10/10”


“Maddie was great! She stayed at our house with our 14 year old, blind fur baby, Liz. She kept us well informed throughout the weekend. It was so nice to have a trustworthy sitter and return to a happy, relaxed dog. Liz was in excellent hands, and we could tell she felt completely comfortable and safe with Maddie. We wouldn't hesitate to book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a compassionate and reliable sitter!”

About: I have deep love, admiration, and understanding for animals and am innately empathetic and intuitive. I have extensive experience caring for all kinds of pets including small to large dogs, cats, small animals like rabbits, fish, and reptiles. I have experience training as well as assisting others dogs with some behavioral and basic training. I am not easily intimidated and can hold my own with bigger dogs or animals with behavioral problems. My schedule is flexible! I work part time helping my mom with my disabled dad, so I have plenty of availability during weekdays, overnight, and weekends to give your furry family members all the attention they need! I truly enjoy spending time with animals and getting to know them! I have training as a first responder & lifeguard and know animal CPR & first aid. I have a flexible schedule, so I easily adjust to my clients needs. Understanding animal behavior is a major interest of mine and I very easily adjust to animals temperaments and energy levels!
“Scott is a reliable and loving dog and house sitter. Going above and beyond, he even helped with some household tasks while I was away! More importantly, he cared for my dogs as if they were his own, he even was able to win over the more difficult of the two dogs. He was able to patiently manage their more difficult qualities, like leash aggressiveness, and trash picking. I received daily updates and photos, putting me at ease. I confidently recommend Scott, and will be a repeat customer.”

“We were a little nervous, having never used Rover before, about letting a stranger into our home to watch our pups. After meeting Caroline prior to our trip, we knew our dogs and home were in good hands. Caroline was quick to respond to all of our messages prior to and while on our trip. She was amazing and we will definitely use her again.”

“Goka was great. She is trustworthy and obviously loves animals. She took our dog on walks (more than he's used to with just us, which I'm sure he loved), visited frequently and sent us photos of how he was doing. It was really great for him to be able to stay at home.”

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have a genuine passion for them. I have experience in dogs of all sizes from Yorkie mixes to English mastiffs. Most of my experience is with older dogs but willing to work with puppies. I love taking the time to get to know each dog and their personalities. I am a teacher on summer break so my schedule is pretty flexible this time of year! Most of my availability is during the day for walking but can be available at night if needed. I am comfortable putting dogs in and out of crates and administering medication if needed. Not afraid to clean up messes when needed. Comfortable walking dogs. I have my own car so I can drive if needed at any time.

About: I’ve taken care of my dogs for a couple of years now and I want to be able to experience other dogs! I want to widen my variety and learn new skills when it comes to watching/playing with dogs. I am working part time at the Family Fun Center in sugar grove but I am available on weekdays and weekends to pet sit! I will play with ur puppies and check in on them any time you need me to! I will make sure your puppers will be taken good care of and let them out on a leash if need to be. I have two dogs at home that I let out in our little fenced in area.
About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. I grew up with pets in the home—usually a dog, a cat, or both—and caring for them has always been a natural part of my life. My last dog passed away about four years ago, and while I would love to adopt again, I can’t right now because my son has significant allergies to cats and dogs. I truly miss the companionship and joy that pets bring, which is one of the reasons I’m so grateful to care for other families’ animals. When your dog is with me, they’ll get more than just the basics. Of course I’ll make sure their physical needs are met—walks, feeding, fresh water, and safety—but I’ll also give them plenty of affection, attention, and calm companionship. I’m comfortable with larger dogs, and I’m also happy to give basic medications (such as pills with food or treats) as needed. I’ll treat your pup like a beloved member of the family, and I’ll follow your routines and instructions closely so they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I work from home and am available for mid day walks, as well as evening visits and walks. I also am available for pet sitting on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Fridays. I would only be able to care for pets in clients homes. I will meet your pet and you prior to our first visit to ensure I understand your pet's routine and can keep them safe during their time with me.

About: I've watched and cared for both cats and dogs since childhood. I have one lovely cat of my own and have raised and cared for a total of four dogs and three cats from family and friends. I do driver gig work I.e. doordash, postmates etc. My availability is very flexible for this reason, although my wife and I share a car so I ride an electric scooter during the day. I'm a physically fit 25 year old, taking your pups for a walk/jog will be quite literally, a walk in the park haha. I treat my clients as if they're mine, making sure they're safely leashed up before the door opens. When it comes to playtime I find it best to let them show me how rough they want to play.
About: Hello I'm Jenna, I've been working in the animal field for going on 3 years now and it is absolutely my passion! I have worked in multiple pet resorts/daycares and I'm completely comfortable working with all dogs of different sizes/breeds and temperaments. I have some knowledge in on leash dog training and I'd love to take your dogs with me on a walk one day! I very much look forward to hearing from all you wonderful pet parents! 🐾 I am currently a part time worker so I have lots of free time to hangout with your pets! I'm usually free after 1:00pm but I like to try and be flexible so please let me know what works for you! I do have a nice big fenced in yard your dog can run around in and play! I will offer walks as well as fun outings to get pupcups and more! I'm the type who doesn't mind pets on my furniture but I can use a crate if there's a training point trying to he made. Your dog will definitely receive lots of love and affection with me and treats if allowed by their owners. I always make sure theres water available for your dog as it's getting very hot outside! If you rather me come to your home I can always do that as well. I understand it can be more comforting for the pet and owner. (:
