About: On top of about a decade’s worth of experience taking care of family and neighborhood pets, I’ve spent the last 1.5 years as a professional dog trainer! I have a passion for pets and making sure they’re happy and safe. I have taken care of and trained just about every age, sizes, and personality type. As long as you let me know what your babies need, I’m more than happy to help! I am a teacher currently on summer break! I have plenty of time to focus on your pets and give them the care and attention they deserve! I am open to doing whatever your normal routine is! I have experience with all kinds of care instructions including first aid and medications. Just let me know!

Jaymee took excellent care of our babies. She gave us regular updated and sent pictures every day. It was nice being away knowing our babies were in good hands.

This was my first time leaving my fur babies with someone other than my mom and I couldn’t be happier with how well they were cared for! I know Marla loved them like they were her own, even our extremely moody & needy kitty. I was sent multiple updates & pictures, which was awesome. I will definitely be using Marla again in the future :)

About: I have owned multiple dogs (Barnum, Tiara, Miles, and Peanut were my furry friends) from the time that I was two years old until I started college. I have also pet sat for friends many times throughout highschool. Those experiences gave me a deep understanding of the love and attention that dogs require. I love dogs and would be more than happy to help you care for your four legged furend when I am not in classes since I am a full time college student. I am patient, attentive, and exceedingly open to play time with your dog. It's my goal to make both you and your pet happy by walking, checking in on them, or staying with them. I'll follow any instructions I'm given. I also currently have 2 doggos of my own so I adore pets. I'm looking for ways to make extra money when not at work so any time I'm not working I'm available to help care for your furry family member Pets aren't just pets. They're family. I understand just how adored and important someone's pet is to them so I'll follow any care instructions and otherwise just make sure your fur baby is happy and feels comfortable and loved

About: I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m really patient, whether it’s a puppy still learning or an older pet that needs things slower and a little extra care. I’m comfortable sticking to routines, giving meds if needed, and paying attention to small changes so nothing gets missed. I want you to feel at ease while you’re away, knowing your pet is safe, cared for, and getting lots of love. my flexible school schedule allows me to easily prioritize pet care around classes, ensuring your cat receives dedicated attention and reliable visits exactly when needed. my routine focuses on maintaining their specific feeding and litter schedules while providing professional medical monitoring, play and quiet companionship without the stress of travel.

We left our pups in Kaitlin’s care at our house for an entire week and we couldn’t have been happier!! Kaitlin loved our pups and they were super comfortable with her as well! I was actually jealous because she got way more snuggles than I typically do! We will definitely ask her to come back and I highly recommend her!

Mari took wonderful care of our girls. She came a couple of times in advance to let our older girl get to know her because of how scared Sadie is of strangers. She had a very gentle way with her and gave Sadie time to warm up to her. We will definitely have Mari house sit for us again!

About: I am a mom to a rescue dog who I call my “best friend!” I have had 3 dogs in my lifetime. I also feed and care for cats - my sister has 5 felines! I am very reliable and dedicated to helping animals feel safe and loved while being fed and engaged! I am off work in the summers and have a flexible work schedule during the day time. My daughter enjoyed doing Rover and that’s why I am here! Our good friend is a veterinarian and can supply a reference. I am looking forward to meeting your pet(s)! Thank you for your consideration - our pets are very important family members as you well know! I currently am not boarding pets but possibly in the summer time! Thanks again! Petrea

Roscoe, IL, 61073

About: I graduated in May of 2025 from the Madison Area Technical College Veterinary Technician Program, then passed the VTNE to become a Certified Veterinary Technician. In school we worked with dogs, cats, horses, cows, and lambs. I have had dogs since I was a child, and I currently have 2 dogs and 1 cat. I worked on a farm taking care of horses for about two and a half years from 2020-2022. I've taken care of pets for friends/family for many years as well! I currently work at a vet hospital, though I am out on FMLA. Unfortunately, that means I can only take on pets less than 30 lbs at the moment. If you're looking for someone to take extra care of your pets, please reach out to see if we're a good fit! I'm currently working full time as a certified veterinary technician at a veterinary hospital. I work 40 hours a week with a varying schedule. Generally I work 8 am - 6 pm four days a week (my day off during the week changes each week). I work on Saturday about once per month. My rover clients will be scheduled around that availability. I currently live in an apartment with a cat and will not be able to watch clients' pets in my home. If I am watching pets in the client's home, I will take care of them the way I would take care of mine. I am respectful and conscientious of your personal space and privacy.

About: Animals have been a big part of my life for as long as I can remember. 🐾 My heart belongs to my 8-year-old miniature schnauzer, my little old lady bestie who came from a tough past. Caring for her through trauma and anxiety has made me a more patient, attentive, and compassionate pet parent which are skills I bring to every pet I care for. Most recently, I welcomed three rescue cats into my life, and let me tell you, they have completely stolen my heart! Every day is a new adventure learning their quirks and showering them with love. Dogs, cats, big personalities, shy babies, I adore them all. Your pet won't just be looked after, they'll be loved, doted on, and treated like my very own. 🐶🐱 I can't wait to meet them! Working from home means I have a wonderfully flexible schedule. I already walk my dog multiple times a day and spend a big chunk of my time enriching and engaging my pets. Adding your fur baby to my routine would be a joy, not a chore. There's almost always someone home, which means maximum love and minimal alone time for your pet! 🐾 Your home, your rules. I'll follow every routine, boundary, and expectation you set to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and completely at ease while you're away. My goal is for your pet to barely notice you're gone (okay, they'll miss you but they'll be well-loved in the meantime)!

With my open availability, I am here to provide daily walks, plenty of playtime, and even overnight stays if necessary! When taking care of pets in my home or at a client's home, I make sure to meet all of their basic needs. This involves feeding them according to their dietary requirements, providing fresh water, and taking them for walks or engaging in playtime for exercise. I also ensure to follow any specific care instructions provided by the pet owner, such as giving medication or following a grooming routine. Additionally, I maintain a safe and clean environment for the pets, and give them plenty of attention and affection to keep them happy and comfortable.

Jaymee was an excellent dog sitter! So good and attentive with my dogs, sent photos every day, which really made me feel so much better about being away from them. It’s great to know that Jaymee is someone you can trust to be in your home!

Erin did a wonderful job taking care of Teddy. She spent time snuggling with him and took him for walks. When Erin had to leave Teddy whined and barked... he does that when we leave which shows me he really likes Erin!! I would recommend her to anyone and plan to have her be with Teddy again when we are out of town.
