House Sitting in Lake Barrington

“Lauren did an amazing job watching our two dogs. She communicated well, responded fast and followed our directions. She sent daily pictures and I could tell the dogs were well looked after. It’s easy to see she is great with animals! We will definitely use her in the future.”

“Lauren was absolutely amazing. She took great care of our girls and our home. I highly recommend her and we will be booking again in the future.”

“Jeanne was wonderful with our Maggie. I felt Maggie was safe and well taken care of. Jeanne sent us a number of pictures throughout the day. Any fears we had of going away and leaving Maggie were unfounded!”

“As a life long pet owner, the hardest thing to do is go away and worry about your pets care. I’ve left both my dogs, a cat and even a fish with Dayna. I was updated on a regular basis, a few funny photos, but not over the top or incessant updates. Dayna is patient, gentle and well organized. If you are looking for someone to treat your beloved pet as she would her own, look no further.”

About: Caring for dogs is not a job for me, it's a passion. I have had dogs my whole life and absolutely love being around them! Growing up, I trained all of my family labradors in agility. I had the whole yard set up with an agility set my parents let me buy and put in the yard. I also had my own local dog walking and sitting business when I was young and I miss that everyday -- so here I am! I am very attentive to dogs needs and love seeing that tail wag whether it be from just enjoying the outside air, feeding them, or playing a fun game of tug o war! I love getting to know your dog and their personality, what makes them happy, and how I can help them thrive when their family is not home. I have two friendly yellow Labradors at home with me. They are my bestfriends! My home is great for pets because I live with people who love animals just as much as I do. I live on the river so it is perfect if your pup loves the water! I work a full time job but I am fully open Fridays and Saturdays. Throughout the week, I am available in the afternoons/early evenings for walks and other services. I am pretty flexible with appointments and scheduling. I have a nicely sized fenced in yard with 2 yellow labs. I have a small doggy pool, tons of trees for shade and open area for sun!

“Aury was very attentive and asked us great questions during our meet and greet. We came home to a very happy Daisy! If we were not moving to ATL, we would definitely use Aury again! Thanks again! :)”

“Although Bree is new to Rover we felt extremely comfortable leaving our 13 year old dog in her capable hands. She kept us updated daily with their activities and photos. ( I think my dog had a better time than we did ! ) Bree took very good care of our home and left it clean and tidy. We would most definitely recommend Bree to anyone needing help with their pets. I know we will use her again!”

“Jennifer has been watching our two dogs (chihuahua and Jack Russel) for four years now. She takes them on walks, sticks to their feeding schedule, and handles anything else we ask. She treats them like her own and we know our pups are always in good hands with Jen!”

“Megan was amazing and so sweet. She was so great with our pups and took the time to send us pictures and updates. Everything at our house was tidy and our pups were so happy! I’d love to use Megan again in the future.”

About: I am new at boarding, but have owned dogs in the past, recently I had an English bulldog for for 10 years. I have a great house with a fenced in backyard. I would love the opportunity to grow my profile on Rover. I am also available to dog walk, and to housesit I have flexibility now that will allow me to be readily available in my work schedule and be able to accommodate the needs of pet owners I’ve been a dog owner all my life and have a passion for taking care of animals. I follow every direction from the pet owner in terms of walks, sitting at their homes and pet safety.

“We had an amazing experience with Jenn. My wife and I were getting married and needed someone to watch our pup for the weekend and our Rover cancelled on us the two hours before I was supposed to drop him off. Jenn agreed to watch him AND bring him to the wedding for pictures last minute. We are so grateful. I could tell Beamer had such a great time with all the pictures Jenn sent us. I would highly recommend Jenn to anybody who needs a sitter.”

“Joy is wonderful with pets. She developed a good relationship with my Broozer by taking the time to understand what he wants and not being too pushy. She is very loving, which makes Broozer adore her because she always has cuddles and rubs to give. She is good about cleaning up around my house and not letting hair get everywhere.”

“I’d trust David with my puppies any day. He’s a natural and cares for your pets as if they were his own. Your dogs are in great hands with him.”

“Maria is very caring and loving to my dog joejoe who requires a lot of love and attention! Not only did she dog walk/fed but spent the time cuddling w Joe. He seemed very happy after coming home from a long weekend away. She kept me updated several times a day w sweet photos of Joe. I would recommend her and hoping she can spend more time with him!”

“We recently had Rena house sit and watch our dog for the weekend. She was very responsive and kept us informed. She was also respectful of our home and treated our dog well. We would recommend her.”

“Indre was extremely flexible with her scheduling and was great with the boys. They obviously claimed her while we were gone and everything went smoothly. The house was in great shape when we returned home and”

“Holly was available for a short notice overnight stay at our house watching two energetic terrier mix dogs. Dogs loved her and they got plenty of attention. Holly also gave us fun updates on how the dogs were doing. We’d definitely hire Holly again!”

“Magi did a wonderful job house sitting our two dogs while we were gone for an extended weekend. We were worried about finding someone last minute that we could trust watching our 14 week old puppy and 9 year old dog, but Magi fit the bill. She sent daily pics of our two pups, checked in with puppy updates, and left our home spotless. We would love to have Magi back again during our future trips!”
