“We couldn’t be happier with Archy’s stay! He came home relaxed and happy, and it was clear he felt right at home. The frequent updates and adorable photos were such a thoughtful touch and really put our minds at ease the whole time. We’re so grateful for the care, attention, and patience. Thank you for handling him with such kindness. We truly appreciate everything and will absolutely book again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet sitter!”


“We normally have family or a close friend watch our sweet pup, but they were not available for our spring break trip this year. So, we very nervously set out to find a sitter for our dog. We found Leigh and her wonderful family on Rover and are so grateful! This is definitely a family that loves dogs. Leigh sent us pictures and updates every day so we could see how our dog was doing. They exercised him daily and kept him active! We are very grateful for Leigh and her family and would definitely book her again.”



“Thank you Julia for everything! She sent updates on how my dog Autumn was doing. I felt comfortable leaving Autumn with Julia and we will continue booking with her for when we go out of town 😊”


“It was a pleasure having Ace with Marta and family. She took great care and shared regular updates. Ace came home happy and that speaks for all the good things. We look forward to working with Marta sometime soon.”


“Arpita was wonderful and took great care of our golden ret while we were traveling. We loved the constant updates and photos she shared with us. We will definitely be boarding our golden again with them !”


“Katie took amazing care of our girl Maisey while we were away for 2 weeks. Each day we received great photos and videos of all her puppy hangouts, walks, and cuddles. Katie was so sweet and caring it really helped us feel comfortable away from our pup for so long. We can tell she loved all her time during her stay, especially playing with Sprout! Can’t recommend Katie enough.”


“I am so happy that we found Erena! Her love of animals and constant stream of written updates and photos made us feel our pup was taken care of all weekend. Cooper had a wonderful time, made new friends and will be back with Lorena again!”


“As usual, Balaji and his wife took care of Bunny as if their own pet . Feeding lunch and dinner by hand including required medication. Bunny enjoyed her company with Mocha. They played all the time together as siblings. Thank You Balaji and Sanna . Kali& Bhagyam”


“Kristal took great care of our fur baby while we went on vacation for a few days. She sent pictures regularly and when we picked up our little dog, she was happy and not at all stressed like she gets if we board her at a kennel. Communication was regular and clear. I highly recommend Kristal for your pet sitting.”


“Monica is awesome with our Sky. She genuinely loves dogs and takes really special care to give ours the attention that she needs. The communication is great and she has been very flexible with our erratic schedules. We’re very happy to have met her and we feel very comforted knowing our Sky is in her good hands”


“Mike and Mary were great with my Bingo. They set up a cozy space with his favorite blanket and toy, and to help shy Bingo adapt well to new environments. Highly recommend them!”


About: I am a Special Education teacher who works at a Therapeutic School by day and an animal lover all day and night. I do not have kids but I have 3 cats and babysit my friends and families fur babies any chance I get. Pets have free range of my home, they can relax on the couch, chair and bed whenever they want. I have experience watching dogs from pups-elderly. I volunteer at a local animal rescue in Palatine and bring in therapy dogs to visit my classroom. I rescued and adopted a deaf kitty with one eye, and I've always had animals in my home. I am a non-smoker and vegan (vegans really do love animals). For any overnight/weekend stays, I will be home and available to play, go for lots of walks and hangout all weekend long with your fur baby. Regular walks, feedings, playtime and relaxation based on your dogs needs is my priority. I have three loving cats who will keep your dog company. I have a small backyard that is away from cars/traffic and a large front yard. I have a dog tie out and spiral stake for dogs that want to roam around my unfenced front and/or backyard. Playdates with neighboring dogs is always an option or solo, quiet time if they prefer. I can keep your pet on their walking/feeding/play/sleep schedule as you request.

“Karina took great care of Paisley so much so that she felt at home. The whole family is very welcoming. As Paisley is a fussy eater, she made sure to hand feed her daily and allowed her to be on the bed. She was well fed, provided bath when she got dirty, taken out for walks, sent us timely updates with photos and videos, which kept us relaxed during our vacation. We are extremely happy to have found a perfect place for Paisley in the future. Overall, a great experience and there is no doubt that we will continue to use Karina's services going forward. Thank you, Karina for taking care of Paisley and for keeping her happy throughout her 2+ weeks of stay!”
