“This was my first time using a paid service to take care of my cats, and I am so happy with Melinda. She spent time with them and took great pictures of my boys, which I looked forward to every day I was gone. She was wonderfully respectful of my home. I would gladly book her services again.”
About: I have experience taking care of a high medical needs cat. I also have experience with deaf and blind cats. I understand each pet is an individual and will adjust my care as I get to know them. Some pets love human interaction and others need their space. I’m absolutely ready to kiss and hug them or give them the distance they need to feel safe. Nothing like the smell of fresh litter in the morning! I am a cat mom to 2 playful, cuddly adopted babies. I recently became a volunteer at a cat shelter, which gives me so much purpose. I have a full time job Monday-Friday. I am looking to occasionally pet sit on weekends and early mornings on weekdays. Home is a sacred place. I will treat your pets and your space respectfully. I can send you all the photos you need to feel comfortable, or video call you. I am comfortable cleaning up after your pet, and giving them all the cuddles and words of affirmation they need while you are away.

About: Hello! My name is Brenna and I am a speech therapist in the Chicago area. My husband and I have a Frenchie, Albert, and a cat, Frank, who are very spoiled! Also they are both fully up to date on their vaccinations. I have 2 years experience watching dogs on Rover of a wide breed, size, and age range. Additionally, I have a year of experience volunteering at an animal shelter, walking dogs and feed and caring for cats. I grew up with labradors and I adore dogs of all sizes!

About: With seven years of experience as a dog owner and currently caring for two cats, I've developed a deep understanding of animal behavior and needs. I've learned the importance of patience, persuasion, and kindness in fostering positive relationships with all pets. My experience extends to babysitting dogs during playdates and comfortably walking dogs that aren't my own, always prioritizing their safety and enjoyment. You can trust that your furry friend will be in compassionate and capable hands. My flexible remote schooling and part-time cafe work on Williamson Street allow me ample availability during the week. Weekdays are generally wide open for walks! While weekends can be tighter, with a week's notice, I can often accommodate your dog's needs. Let's chat to find a perfect time for your pup. Your dog's safety and your peace of mind are my top priorities. I come fully equipped with my own leash and eco-friendly poop bags, ensuring responsible and prepared walks every time. I am committed to creating a trustworthy and positive environment for your beloved pet, treating them with the same care and respect I give my own.
About: I have been caring for all types of animals since I was 10 years old. From energetic puppies who need daily adventures to shy cats who crave quiet companionship, I’m here to keep your pets safe, happy, and well loved while you’re away. Do you own a pet that isn't a cat or dog? No problem! I have owned dogs, cats, hamsters, gerbils, frogs, geckos and fish! I am currently attending college to become a registered nurse. Starting September 29th, I will be available every Tuesday and Thursday until my classes change in January. Most weekends are free for me as well if you're away on vacation. I will be free during Thanksgiving. As for now, my availability is limited and accurate to what I have open on the app. I am working part time as a dental hygiene assistant, and attending college. I would love to provide care to your pet during the weekend, and limited week days! I'm willing to make my schedule fit yours. My top priorities are comfort, consistency, and connection. I follow your routine closely to ensure your pet experiences familiarity. I respect your space and pet's preferences. Whether they need a peaceful walk, a high energy play companion, or just someone to sit with them, I'm here for it all!

About: I will absolutely spoil and love your pets like they are my own! I am a recent graduate from UW-Madison in Wildlife Ecology where I gained animal experience. I also graduated from Madison College with an Associate Degree for Veterinary Technician. I worked in the veterinary field for over a year before attending UW-Madison. I take pride in my ability to care for animals and the love I have for them. My schedule is currently completely open to take care of and spoil all the pets I can. I have a Chocolate Labrador named Jake that would need to come with me when house sitting. He is good with dogs and cats. I might not have a fenced yard, but there is so much space near my apartment for dogs to play and run. There is also a trail close by that I have taken my dog on, which she loves. I have a truck that can transport them. If I am caring for pets in the client's home I have no issue with taking them out to play or on walks. I absolutely love being around pets.
“Gilberto saved the day for me by stopping by rather last minute to give my dog her dinner and a potty break. He was very communicative! I appreciated his detailed updates on my dog’s food consumption and potty routine. He included photos too, which is always nice and gives some peace of mind.”

“Vanessa is great with pets! She's a cat mom, with a dog mom heart. Our dogs, Pinky and Livi, can be shy around other humans, but Vanessa's warm and kind demeanor quickly melted that away. Now they run in excitement when they see her. She also help take care of our cat Cleo when we were away on a trip. Cleo is blind and elderly, so the extra effort and TLC Vanessa gave her was very appreciated!”

“Jessica would be a wonderful addition to the Rover team! Not only is she an animal lover; she has a wonderful fur baby, Maya, that she would move mountains for.
