Pet Sitting in Maple Park

“Kamron was a wonderful sitter. We needed a sitter last minute after our other one never showed up, and she was more than willing to step up! Our dog Lyric loved being with her too, as she was really attentive to him. She also gave us great updates, eliminating any doubts or worries we had! <3”

“Rae’Na is the best there is! She takes wonderful care of our puppy during drop in visits. She is always very attentive, detail orientated, and professional. Would recommend her to anyone!”

About: I've had a dog for nearly 14 years and have always been well acquainted with animals. Over the past few years I've also animal sat for many family and friends. Looking after dogs, cats, and even a rabbit. I'm currently a student at Kishwaukee College and looking for part-time work over the summer to pair up with my internship. My schedule is pretty flexible so pet care is an easy way to work. I'm well aware of how cats and dogs try to bolt through the door when it's opened, or knock food bowls out of your hands, and all of their own unique personalities. So I am prepared to work with pets and owners to make sure everything goes as smoothly as possible.

About: I've spent over a decade caring for dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes and personalities and I absolutely love it! Whether it is a high-energy pup who is ready to chase squirrels through imaginary forests, a wise senior pet who perfers sun soaked naps, or a tender-hearted rescue dog who needs a safe, calm environment, I tailor my care to honor each pet's unique rhythm and soul. My priority is to always provide safe, loving and personalized care so your pet feels comfortable, joyful and truly at home. I am reliable, communicative and detail oriented so that you can relax knowing your pet is in capable, caring hands. The services I provide range from walks through leafy paths, nourishing meals, enchanting playtime, cleanup and administering daily medications. I treat each and every pet like family and I would be honored to welcome yours into my little circle of tail-wagging magic. My schedule is open and flexible, typically from 7am to 8pm every day of the week. I am happy to tailor my availability to suit your needs, whether it is for an sunrise stroll, or a quiet evening check in, I'll be there with a calm reliability and a gentle presence that puts both you and your pet at ease. I take my time to get to know each and every animal I provide care for, whether it is walking, drop in vists or housesitting so they feel safe, understood and truly at ease. I strive to create a calm, secure environment that feels a little magical where your pet can relax, play and be themselves. Think of me as a gentle guardian, frolicking through the day with your furry companion making sure their needs are met with kindness and care.

About: Dogs are my absolute favorite creatures on earth. I have almost 40 years experience with dogs. I have owned dogs, trained dogs, helped deliver puppies and most importantly loved & spoiled dogs. I currently have a 6 year old little girl Montana that I helped deliver. She is my whole heart. I have a flexible work schedule allowing me to be available for dog walks when needed. I am available every day of the week and on holidays. I am just joining Rover and look forward to building trust & getting regular clients. Fur babies rely on us to take care of them. My babies are loved, spoiled, played with and talked to every day. Yours will be too while in my care. I also have 4 Granddogs that I care for when needed. Gramma spoils them when their Mommy & Daddy are away. I love taking dogs on walks. It's the equivalent of taking children to the playground. Their happiness makes me happy.

“Kellie handled our four senior kitties with ease. Came home to everything in its place and clean. She even got our kitty Koona to finish her meals (she had been not eating for a day before we left). I could tell by the pics the kitties were happy. Thank you Kellie!”

“Elliot was fantastic, and I highly recommend them if you need anybody to drop in on your pets, and give them some food, attention, and playtime!”

About: I treat every dog like they’re my own—with patience, love, and lots of play! What sets me apart is my hands-on experience caring for both energetic puppies and senior dogs who need a gentler touch. Hi!

Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine, and I truly enjoy spending time with pets, it’s a fun and relaxing break from school and work.

Whether it’s a walk, a cuddle session, or just keeping them company while you’re away, your pets will be in loving hands! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I will try to stick closely to their usual routine feeding times, walks, playtime, and any special instructions you provide. I will make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and stress free while you’re away. I always keep things clean, stay respectful of your space, and give your pet the attention they need to feel comfortable. Whether your pet loves cuddles, playtime, or just quiet company, I adapt to their needs and personality to ensure they’re happy and well cared for.

About: My neighbors and friends have relied on my to take their dogs out for walks and cat sitting since I was in elementary school. I have cared for and owned dogs, cats, and reptiles including a special needs one and am confident I can follow every routine your pet has.

About: I have taken care of cats, dogs, lizards (and even hedgehogs for a couple years!) since I was 10 years old. I love all pets and am happy to go out and play or sit and relax, all depending on the pet’s needs. I have administered medication to senior cats, middle-aged to senior dogs, and lizards. I do not mind helping to clean your house if there are any accidents or messes made while I am there! I am looking for a summer job as I have a couple smaller, less frequent opportunities throughout the summer. I am going to do my masters at NIU in the fall, so I will be in the area for a while! I would love to get out and do lots of walks to enjoy the summer weather. I have two cats at home that get played with daily and enjoy relaxing with me at the end of the day. Because my cats will eat anything and everything, I am very aware of what is left out in my house as well as other spaces. I am happy to clean up any messes or accidents made while I am at your home and make sure everything is the same or better than you left it for an overnight stay. I have pet sit for many friends and family and have had no complaints! I will make sure to take pictures of your pet so you know they are happy and safe, it’s what I would want from anyone who takes care of my cats!

“I have a cat that requires subcutaneous fluids and I needed someone to drop in while I was on vacation to give those to her and I couldn’t have asked for anyone better than Meg! She did such a great job, communicated well, I trusted her completely, and her care meant that I could relax and enjoy my vacation instead of worrying about my cat. If I ever needed someone to look after my cat again, I’d happily rebook with Meg.”

About: I've taken care of pets since I was a teenager. Pets that belonged to my sister to pets that have belonged to my neighbors. I have experience feeding and walking dogs. I'm currently in between jobs at the moment, but that'll change in a little while. So, take advantage while you can. Of course, when I do get a job, I'll still make time to care for your pet! I'm always dependable to feed your pet on time and walk your pet for however long is needed. I also enjoy playing and interacting with your pet.

About: One of my greatest joys in life is meeting new Dogs. There isn’t a dog that I won’t stop to greet and I’ve never turned down a chance to puppy-sit for a friend. In fact my experience outside of my own pets probably starts around 8-9 years old, I used to help my grandma feed her two large huskies, kennel them and clean their dog run. I’ve cared for everything from large German shepherds to small chihuahuas and a lot of in between which has given me years of experience caring for every different type of personality and energy level. I’ve cared for foster dogs from bad situations, high energy dogs with special care needs and even senior dogs who may need a little help now and then. A lot of people can walk a dog but only a few special people can care for your dog as much as you would. I believe I’m a person who would care and protect your dog as much as I would my own. I work full time Mon-Fri til 230 with my free time running til 7 pm everyday but Wednesdays. I’m available all day on Saturdays and Sundays with exceptions. I will always try my best to care for your dogs exactly as you need or specify. I’ll spend as much time as I can with them and put off crating til necessary. I want your dogs to get the most out of this experience seeing as they’re the ones being cared for, so I will always treat them as you would.
