“Michelle took great care of our dogs! Very responsive, handled minor issues with aplomb, gave us frequent updates. We (and more importantly our pups) could not ask for anything more! A+++++”

“Alyssa did an awesome job house sitting with our 2 dogs while we were away for 5 days. The dogs bonded with her right away, and she took great care of them. When she came for a meet and greet she was very attentive in learning about their personal needs. She was also very responsive via text and sent updates throughout the stay. Our house was in great shape when we got home. We would definitely rebook with Alyssa in the future and she has our full recommendation!”

“Casey Is Great! This is my first time using rover so obviously I was really nervous about this, but after talking to her she made me feel so much better! Responds fast, updates you throughout the day &’ is a sweetheart I would definitely book again!”

“Mya did a great job with our 2 dogs while we were out of town. She made sure they got outside a lot and received plenty of attention. She also took good care of our house. I would definitely recommend her services and we would be happy to book with her again!”


“We came home to a very happy dog thanks to Kimberlee. She kept me updated as she came and went and when she was in for the night. It was a great relief to find Kimberlee. Highly recommend.”
“Sarah was awesome. I would highly recommend her services. She took great care of our pets and house. The whole experience couldn't have been more pleasant. If you are looking for someone to watch your pets, look no further!”

“Destiny did a fantastic job with the dog sitting over the weekend. Very communicative and everything worked out nicely. Dogs were great and she treated my house and animals with respect. It was so clean when I got back and I couldn't be happier. She said she does cleaning on the side. Next time I will take advantage of her deep cleaning while I'm gone. I know my pups loved their time with her.”


“Rachel did a great job with our 3 pets! She sent lots of pics and videos and kept us up to date on what they were doing; she even vacuumed for us! We are very satisfied and definitely recommend her!”
“Once again Nick took amazing care of our home and dogs. We wouldn’t trust anyone else with this most important job. Nick is communicative, trustworthy, responsible and professional. As a repeat client, he feels like family now!”

About: I have many years of experience with household animals, family/friends pets, and various types! I am fluid with service animals as well as with animals requiring special care needs! I am currently open to job opportunities and have a pretty flexible schedule for the foreseeable future. I currently have a 14 year old maltese boy Unless specified otherwise, feedings are routine and scheduled based. Any medicines that need to be administered are taken care of. I have a big backyard, unfenced but have space to let pets out and roam on a long leash.
“Because of a family emergency that took us out state, Jeremiah stepped up and took care of our fur babies with very little notice. He stayed at our house overnight with our pets. He sent daily photos of both our pets and answered any questions we had. When we got home, our babies were happy and the house was clean. We would absolutely hire Jeremiah again!”

About: Hello, my name’s Anna. I have been taking care of dogs since I was 26. My family got a golden doodle several years ago and he has definitely been a joy and a task. Having a dog such as mine has made me more comfortable in my dog caring skills and fairly knowledgeable about what needs dogs have. I’m also very well equipped to handle puppies as I recently got a cocker spaniel several months ago. But given that, my passion for dogs continues to grow. I now as an independent adult have 2 dogs who I’ve had the pleasure of raising as puppies to where they are at now. I work full time but like to stay active and adding furry friends to the mix on my days off is no big task. I would love to see more dog friends and help them socialize and make someone’s life easier. I don’t have a fenced in back yard, but I am capable of taking dogs on as many walks as needed. I am also capable of putting dogs in a crate and preparing them for crating as long as needed.

About: I’ve had the pleasure of interacting with medium-sized dogs in my family, neighbors and friends! I don’t discriminate against any dog size, and I’m also open to taking on larger dogs. I work full time a 9-5 but I always make time! In the evening and weekends are open to new adventures! Some weekends and low key! I need/prefer a fenced in yard. Dog must be potty trained and leash trained. My home is tick and flea free ! This will vary depending on services requested.

“Thanks again Michaela for taking good care of Fryd and Bjork when we eas in Norway. This is second time You help us out whit dog sitting in our house and I am sure if would be the last:) Merry Christmas to you from Livvand Ole”

“We cannot recommend Edna highly enough! She recently watched our two mini dachshunds, Tux and Moo, and exceeded all our expectations. From the moment we met her, we could tell how kind and caring she is, and she made us feel completely at ease leaving our dogs in her care. Edna kept our home spotless while we were away, and she consistently checked in with us to provide updates. She even sent us the sweetest pictures of Tux and Moo, which made us feel so connected and reassured. It was clear they were happy, comfortable, and well-loved under her care. If you’re looking for someone who will go above and beyond for your pets and treat them like family, Edna is the person for you. We would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible, thoughtful, and caring pet sitter!”

“For the first time in many many years, I did not worry at all about my furry friends at home, while I was on vacation. Jamie is great and my guys love her. I know she took care of them just like they were her own. And she put up with all of their unique personalities.”
About: Passionate about pooches from childhood, I've devoted years to loving and caring for our four-legged friends. After college, I became the proud primary caregiver for Lilly, a delightful dog I had the joy of looking after for five wonderful years. My journey continued as I fostered various dogs through a local shelter for two years, gaining invaluable experience with a diverse range of breeds and personalities. After a short pause, I'm excited to re-enter the world of dog caregiving and share my lifelong passion and expertise with your beloved companion! Dog caregiving seamlessly fits into my lifestyle, complementing my full-time job in Northbrook. I am dedicated to providing the best care during early mornings and evenings, ensuring your dog starts and ends their day with energy and happiness. For those midday moments when your pup needs a break, I am available for walks or check-ins if your location is within a 10-minute drive from my office. This schedule allows me to combine my professional commitments with my passion for dog care, giving your pet consistent and loving attention throughout the day. I am out of town most weekends, but with a week or more of notice I can also accommodate weekend care. With my extensive background in dog caregiving, I am fully equipped to provide tailored care that aligns with your pet's needs and your expectations. Whether it involves walking several miles to keep them healthy and engaged, or playing games that stimulate their mind and body, I am ready to ensure they have a fulfilling day. My experience in simple training techniques allows me to reinforce good behavior and maintain consistency with your usual commands and routines. Additionally, I understand the importance of a structured environment, so I can effectively use crating when necessary and mimic your typical schedule to maintain a sense of normalcy for your dog. My goal is always to create a seamless experience for your pet, mirroring their home life as closely as possible to keep them comfortable and happy while you're away.
