About: I have always loved animals and during my middle school years up until now (18) have been pet sitting and dog walking for family and friends. I am extremely experienced and have not only taken care of dogs and cats but also fish, rodents, and reptiles. I have owned guinea pigs and fish in the past and I currently have three lovely cats. I will be sure to leave you and your pet happy at the end of my service! My schedule is very open and flexible. I am also willing to wake up early for your pet if needed. I am often available on holidays and weekends as well. I spend time with the pet both indoors and outdoors to make sure that your pet gets their energy out while outside and the loving in while inside. I make sure to keep your pet safe and healthy while your out so you don't have to worry about your fur baby for a second.
About: I’ve been able to manage and care for pets since a kid. For some reason dogs love me and the feeling has been very mutual. I work during the day and go to schools on the weekends early mornings. It will be perfect to fill in the blank spots were I feel I’m bored I care for all pets with their safety and health in mind. Treat the pets the same way I would want someone to treat me and
About: I have experience caring for dogs of different ages and sizes, from playful puppies to calm senior pets. I focus on safety, exercise, and creating a fun, loving environment. I am patient and responsible, and I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully to make sure each pet feels comfortable, cared for, and happy while under my supervision. Pet care fits into my weekly routine around my job. I am available on Tuesdays at any time, Wednesdays in the morning, and weekends (Saturday and Sunday) at any time. Even with my work schedule, I always make sure to dedicate reliable time for walks, playtime, and pet care. This routine allows me to stay consistent and provide attention and safety for pets when I commit to them. I always make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and happy whether they are at my home or their own. I create a calm and caring environment, provide fresh water, and ensure they get enough exercise and playtime. I also pay attention to their routines and follow the owner’s instructions carefully, so pets feel secure and loved while in my care.
About: I have worked in Veterinary medicine for over 14 years. I started out as a kennel attandant and worked by way up to become an uncertified veterinarty technicican. I started pet sitting when I was in high school for my neighbors and have done it part-time ever since. I have experience with all sorts of dog and cat behaviors. I am flexible and can accommodate for most things. I do work 4 10 hr shift right now. I am available in the early AM and late PM. I do have weekends off right now as well. Depending on the location, I can stop in on my lunch breaks if it isn't too far from my work. I will be able to do anything a pet owner asks of me. I think it is good to keep the pet's routine as close to their norm as possible when their owners are away. This helps limits the stress for the pets.
About: Have taken care of dogs since I was young. Neighbors and family friends alike. I’ve also always had a dog since I was younger as well. Pet care is a part of my daily life since I have my own dog and help with my sisters. Dogs can’t talk so sticking to a routine helps them out. I’ve taking care of both small and bigger dogs so the level of care and exercise varies. I’ve taken care of dogs who need to take meds and not exercise too much as to not hurt themselves. Along with active farm type of dogs who have needed an hour or two walk.
“Great experience for my puppy learning to be left alone during the day! Faith kept our training habits going and was even conscientious about checking her water before leaving. So grateful to have someone helping our little family out!”
About: I have grown up with cats and currently have a 6 year old German Shepard named Jamie :) My girlfriend also has 2 cats that I love to hang out with and help take care of! I have a full time job outside of Rover, but am often at home during the day: able to do dog walks or drop ins for your pets. I have full day availability on Saturdays. Treating your pet like my own. On walks I’ll always make sure they’re on a leash, while staying alert to my surroundings, and check in for cues about tiredness/energy levels while making sure they get their activity in! At home will make sure they get all of the attention and care they need.
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: I am a dog lover, I’ve had many pets throughout my life. I had a dog named Bella for 12 years so I have a lot of experience with dogs. I’ve also had other family members ask me to watch their dogs. I potty trained her and thought her tricks and I can do the same for your dog. I love dogs and I will make sure your dog is well fed, walked and given enough affection while you are away. The neighborhood I live in has great places for walks and dog parks as well. I look forward to meeting you and your dogs in the future have a great day.
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ If I could put 6 stars I would! Amna is so kind and attentive. She sends thorough communication and is always early. She is so understanding and takes very good care of my dog Zeus. When she’s with him I know he not only is in good hands but that he’s having fun with her. I feel so confident in her and would recommend Amna to anyone. I always know that she is going to take amazing care of my little fur baby!”

Rayzel did well with my new rescue Kellie. She spent time getting to know her in advance. On the date, Rayzel arrived on time, took Kellie for a productive walk and then fed her. They got along well even though Kellie is still a bit skittish around strangers. I was very pleased with the service we received from Rayzel.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Libertyville. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
