About: Hello! I'm Jozelin. I'm a super fun and caring individual and am always that person at any get together who is laying in the corner with the house pet and i'm not ashamed! I grew up around animals of all kinds (including four pitbulls at one time) and had parents who stressed the importance of taking care of our animals by feeding them, walking them, and giving them attention and love. I understand that some people with pets don't have as much time to be around them as they'd like (gotta get the paycheck to pay for more pet toys) and so i'm here to fill the important role of caretaker while you are away. I don't discriminate because of breed or size, i just love 'em all! I just moved to Chicago and won’t be starting a job for awhile. Even when I do though, I’ll be working part time and am willing to work with my job so I can still walk dogs. I don’t currently offer boarding but I do try to be a safe handler for dogs (and cats). I am all about making them feel safe and happy!

About: I think animals are amazing. I've watched, walked, and cared for pets throughout my life. I'm playful with animals. I'm not opposed to getting dirty, talking like a cartoon character, and breaking a sweat to make your pet comfortable with me. Your pet will appreciate my calm and silly demeanor. I work Sunday thru Thursday 7am-3pm. So I'm available after then. Saturdays and Sundays are completely available for helping out with animals. And I live near Chinatown, which means I'm close to the loop. N/A I won't be having pets in my home. I work Sunday thru Thursday 7am-3pm. So I'm available after then. Saturdays and Sundays are completely available for helping out with animals. And I live near Chinatown, which means I'm close to the loop.

About: I’ve had dogs since I was 16 and have been volunteering at local Humane Societies ever since for both dogs and cats. I currently have 2 pups of my own. One of which has given me great experience with reactive big dogs. Her name is Camilla and she is a staffy and husky mix. She is the sweetest girl but gets spooked easily but with training lots of love and a steady routine she is doing great. And my small pup Mateo who is just happy to be around and he is a havenese mini poodle mix. I have had him since he was a puppy so I know all about what it takes to watch and care for a puppy. I have a lot of experience and am great at following directions to make you and your fur baby comfortable. I schedule my day around my pets routine and I would do the same with yours as well. I start my mornings early and can adjust as needed! I do work full time however most days I am able to work from home which makes it easier to do walks and drop ins! I do have my own two dogs as well, so if okay with you I do prefer to sleep at my own place during pet sitting especially if you are requesting more than a weekend of sitting. However we can discuss and come up with a plan comfortable for you and your pups as well. I believe in respecting you and your pup or cats space. As someone who owns a reactive dog I do not let dogs meet on walks, I am very good at redirecting and ensuring all parties are safe. I refuse to put any dog any dog in a potentially compromising position.

Jay and Lisette have been so good with walking Bunni and Sharki for a whole week, they are not only consistently on time and always walk them a bit more time than allotted, but also take the time to wipe their paws especially when it’s nasty outside. Would absolutely recommend them to others!

About: I have always had pets, but I have been dog walking since middle school and pet sitting since high school. I have cared for many different breeds, sizes, and ages of dogs and cats, as well as some fish, lizards, snakes, bunnies and birds. I am able to learn and adapt quickly, and am always happy to care for a new species, big or small. I am experienced with caring for pets with special needs or medicines. I have experience with all aspects of dog and cat care, from puppy training to caring for senior dogs with limited mobility, and I am willing to learn about anything I have not yet experienced, including caring for exotic pets. I am comfortable caring for up to a farm's worth of pets at a time, depending on their needs. I have a soft spot for really big dogs, especially rowdy ones! I am working freelance at the moment, so my schedule is completely open! I am available to petsit overnight, to walk dogs during the day, or even to give occasional rides to the park or the vet! I generally prefer to care for pets in their own home. I like to match my routine to yours to minimize stress for your pets, so I am very flexible. I will want to meet with you and your pets prior to sitting to familiarize myself with your routine and needs, and to make sure I am a good match with your pets. I can be as relaxed or energetic as needed depending on the number and energy level of your pets. I will spend as much time petting and cuddling your animals as they let me!

About: I have several years of experience in the biomedical research field where I took care of mice. Administering drugs was a daily task for me. I have also taken care of my romantic partners' pets throughout the years. I am vegan now for several years, so I am deeply committed to treating animals well. I just completed my first cat boarding service, and I discovered that I am very happy taking care of pets at home. I am excited to start hosting more pets! I work from home, so it will be convenient for me to care for your pet(s) throughout the day. I am a freelancer, so I make my own schedule. I can make my schedule around your pets' needs! I maintain a clutter free home where your pet(s) can run inside! There's plenty of light with windows in all rooms. I am vegan for the animals, so you can trust me that I will care for your pet(s) to the best of my ability!

About: Hello everyone! My name is Shannon, but I go by Amii, and I recently moved to Chicago—it’s been almost a year now—to pursue college. Before relocating, I lived in Florida, where I cared for my family’s and friends’ pets whenever they were out of town or had busy work schedules. I also grew up surrounded by animals—neighbors and friends all had pets with unique personalities. There were always stray cats roaming my old neighborhood, and I had a beloved childhood dog for many years before he passed away. Currently, I have an ESA cat, so I’m very familiar with the responsibilities that come with caring for pets and understanding their needs and wants. Some of the tasks I regularly handle include: • Nail trimming • Brushing teeth • Cleaning litter boxes (including Litter-Robots) • Applying topical, oral, and eye medications • Post-surgery aftercare routines (my cat had surgery last year) • Most importantly, staying attentive to their moods and sensitivities While it’s been a while since I’ve lived with a dog—so I might be a bit out of practice beyond walking, playing, and feeding—I’m excellent at following instructions and adapting to each pet’s routine! If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to reach out. Reviews are always appreciated, and I can’t wait to meet you and your fur-babies!! <3 Available :) •Everyday at anytime! Not Available :( •April 30 from 12pm-5pm •May 2-6 •May 14 from 9am-12pm I’m currently unemployed but I do plan to start college in the fall of 2025, so until then; I’m pretty much free the majority of the week :) If something does comes up like traveling plans, classes/studying at certain times, or if I have friends/family that will visit. I’ll make sure to communicate my schedule with you if something can’t or can work. <3 When visiting the clients home I make sure to take pictures and send updates of what I am doing, for example if I’m arriving later than expected, or if the walk is taking longer than expected. I’ll take the dogs out to a specific place if instructed by the client, and I always keep things as is, unless again, instructed by the client. If I need to use a set of keys, I’ll make sure to put it back to its original spot and resetting the lockbox numbers. Please let me know if there’s anything specific you wish to let me know. I wish I could host pets in my home as I have 2 parks near me and one of them is fenced! So if the client is ok with it, I can take your dog of the leash and free play with a tennis ball or sticks, but I have a cat at home who isn’t comfortable with other animals at the moment. If she changes or gets better with it through training I’ll update this in the future. <3

About: Hello! I've been a happy dog owner for over twelve years. I grew up with five dogs at home. My best furry friend growing up was a pug named Chachi--she was the best. I re-homed two animals at the beginning of the pandemic, a cat and a mixed pup. Unfortunately, I lost Cow (my pup) due to unforeseen medical reasons. I'm lucky to still have the company of my long-haired cat named Juneau. I've participated in many volunteer efforts to benefit animals, from hours spent at the Animal Welfare League to donating to organizations such as AWL and ASPCA. On the other hand, I have also taught kids; I feel your furry friends require as much attention and care as children do, so they are bound to be in good hands! I believe animals are a gift to mankind, and deserved to be treated with the same love and respect as a child!

Chauntrell has done a few multi day house sits and several walks with of our 2 Old English Sheepdogs. We have an anxious, senior dog that requires a lot of extra care and compassion. Chauntrell took wonderful care of him while also entertaining our high energy, 3 year old Sheepie. He was super communicative with updates and left detailed notes. He even treated us to photos of our pups while we were away. We arrived home to happy, healthy pups and a spotless house. I would highly recommend Chauntrell to anyone. He's professional, friendly and our pets loved him!

We found Lindsey through a FB group and she came over and met our babies and the rest is history! She is so kind and gentle with them but firm when she needs to be. The dogs love her so much and actually look forward to spending time with her. I swear they know when she is coming to play with them! When Lindsey went away to get her masters in another country, we were devastated to lose our favorite pet sitter, but happy for her new journey. When we learned she was coming back after completing her degree, we couldn’t be more thrilled! She is such a gem, and loves our babies like they were her own!

I have known Nefise for the better part of two years. It has been a pleasure getting to know and employ her. First and foremost, she is polite and respectful. She always communicates in a timely manner and is never late. Furthermore, she always leaves my basket of dog toys and supplies better than she found it. Nefise truly shines when working with large and giant breeds. People are always intimated by my large dogs, Newfoundlands, but she is not disturbed. She is patient and gentle, but firm and in command. My dogs are always been super excited to see her. If that was not enough, she is even good with the alley cat. Its amazing. I could not recommend her and her services enough!

About: I have several years of experience in the biomedical research field where I took care of mice. Administering drugs was a daily task for me. I have also taken care of my romantic partners' pets throughout the years. I am vegan now for several years, so I am deeply committed to treating animals well. I just completed my first cat boarding service, and I discovered that I am very happy taking care of pets at home. I am excited to start hosting more pets! I work from home, so it will be convenient for me to care for your pet(s) throughout the day. I am a freelancer, so I make my own schedule. I can make my schedule around your pets' needs! I maintain a clutter free home where your pet(s) can run inside! There's plenty of light with windows in all rooms. I am vegan for the animals, so you can trust me that I will care for your pet(s) to the best of my ability!

Shannon is phenomenal! She watched my two energetic dogs while I traveled for a long weekend, and I couldn't be happier with how everything went. Shannon showed up exactly on time, immediately connected with my pups, and had no trouble managing their high-energy personalities. She took them for regular walks and made sure they got plenty of exercise and attention. Shannon even sent photo updates regularly, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. When I returned, my home was spotless, and my dogs were clearly happy and well cared-for. Shannon is trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely loves animals—my dogs adore her, and I’ll absolutely book her again! Highly recommended for any pet parent looking for someone caring and reliable.

To whom it may concern, Minerva is an ideal dog caregiver for Rover. She is an honest, hardworking individual who has experience with taking care of animals. She has great time management, organizational and communication skills. Minerva has the ability to remain patient and objective within stressful situations. Minerva also has an impressive background with a variety of dog breeds that she has looked after and cared for. She is passionate for animals, she remains active and engaged within her pet’s life. She has always dedicated her time and expenses into caring for her pets whether it be training or any necessary products to keep them satisfied and healthy. As a dog owner myself, I would trust Minerva to look after my companion if it were necessary for me to travel for work or vacation. She is someone who can easily follow and execute any necessary itinerary or dog schedule. I hope you consider Minerva to represent Rover as a dog caregiver, walker, etc.
