“This is my first time using Rover and Jordyn exceeded my expectations. Jordyn was the perfect fit for my two French bulldogs. She always communicated throughout the day to let me know how they were doing & even sent photos. I would highly recommend her and I look forward to using her again for our next trip.”

“Rachel watched my family's 4 dogs while we went on a week long vacation. She was great, updating us daily with pics and a brief note on how they were doing. Will definitely use her again next year!”

“Haley and Alex came through for me in a very last-minute and stressful situation due to a family emergency. They stayed with my Boys and kept them happy and cared for in my home while I was out of town. They were great about keeping me updated, especially knowing how stressed I was since this was the first time anyone besides my immediate family took care of my pups. I would definitely book them again and will recommend them to all of my pet parent friends! 🐶🐾”

“Grace was great! She was responsive, sent videos and pictures, and made me feel comfortable. My dog got sick before we left town and she was sensitive and kind and gave extra attention. We will have her again the next time we go out of town.”

About: Caring for dogs has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. With 3 years of vet tech experience and 2 years at a doggy daycare, I bring both professional knowledge and genuine love to every dog I care for. I understand dog behavior, medications, and individual needs, and I treat every dog as if they were my own- so you can feel confident your pet is safe, understood, and deeply cared for. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. While I'm currently in school Tuesdays and Thursdays, most of the time I'm home, which gives me open and flexible availability for pet care. I enjoy staying active through walks and hikes, so daily exercise and outdoor time with dogs is something I happily incorporate into my routine. Being home allows me to provide consistent supervision, attention and a calm, caring environment where pets feel safe and well cared for. I care for pets with a calm, loving and attentive approach, whether in my home or a client's home. In my home, dogs have plenty of space to relax and play, including a large fenced-in yard and a comfortable, spacious house. I also live near several forest preserves, which allows for enriching walks and outdoor time when appropriate. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, including feeding schedules and medications, and any special needs, to ensure comfort. Because I may be caring for other dogs and I have a dog of my own, I always ask about a pet's temperament and how they do around other dogs to make sure everyone stays safe, happy and stress-free.

“Megan is amazing!!! She took care of my 2 dachshunds! She went above and beyond for me! I contacted her 6 months ago about watching my dogs for my wedding day. She brought my dogs to my wedding for me! She took amazing care of both my dogs and sent so many pictures! I would highly suggest her as a dog sitter! Our pups were so taken care of. Thank you Megan!”

“Christine was hands down the best dog/ house sitter we could have asked for! We have 3 large dogs and one with a seizure disorder that takes timed medication. We were able to enjoy our vacation because of Christine being so communicative and capable. I cannot recommend her enough!”

Mandy A.

“Michele did a great job watching our Livia while we were in CA. We were very comfortable knowing she was well taken care of. Michele took Livia for a morning walk daily and kept us updated with pictures and notes. She is highly recommended and we wouldn't hesitate to use her again.”

Jim B.

“Our dog isn’t a people person but clearly loved Kara from the very start! I would leave him with her again in a heartbeat. 💕”

Stephanie N.

“Darla was AMAZING while dogistting our two black labs!! We were across the country for a wedding and one of my dogs started getting sick. She was great with communicating with me and keeping me up to date on how my dog was doing while also going the extra mile to provide extra care by cooking chicken and rice so that my dog was able to settle its stomach. Darla was up multiple times during the nights caring for my sick pup and I can't thank her enough for showing so much care and love for my dogs while we were away. I will absolutely be going to Darla for future dogsitting needs. She's so GREAT!”

Crissy M.

“Zoe was great with the dogs and with our home. She was very prompt with her timeliness when meeting for the meet and greet and when coming to take care of our pups.”
