About: I have been around animals ever since I was born. I have had 4 dogs and 9 cats throughout my life. I have been trusted to watch family, friends, and neighbors pets. I love going on walks with dogs and working on basic commands such as sit, lay down, and paw. I enjoy playing with cats and giving them all of the pets if the cat seems like they want them. I canât wait to help you take care of your pets! I have a pretty open schedule so I am available to take care of your pets throughout the day, any day of the week. I will have plenty of time to walk and play with your pets. When on walks Iâll make sure your dog is close to me when other dogs are present and make sure interactions with other dogs are limited to insure your dogâs safety. When itâs just your dog, I will give them time to sniff and go to the bathroom as they please. Inside of the home Iâll make sure they donât have access to items that will harm them. If there are multiple dogs Iâll make sure they are fed separately and monitored. Iâll also monitor them while playing to make sure everyone is safe.
âMara made an instant connection with my shy girl Prima! She did a great job taking care of Prima while I was away and always made sure to send me videos or pictures when she was doing her drop in to visit and care for Prima. Her communication was good and she was flexible with things like scheduling the meet and greet and returning the keys to my apartment.â

âBriana has been great with my mini Australian Shepherd puppy. Very reliable, she gives updates throughout the visit and follows any instructions I give her. Highly recommend!â

Melrose Park cat parents share their Rover experiences
Nevaeh is wonderful! My big dogs loved her, my guinea pigs appreciated her, and my cats even decided that she was a friend. She respected my home and followed all of the instructions for them. She communicates quickly and kindly. I will choose her again and again.

Lindsay was amazing! She checked on my three cats over Thanksgiving week/weekend and did such a great job. She was reliable, trustworthy, and communicated every visit with pictures and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My cats were well cared for and happy when I got home. I highly recommend her and will definitely book her again!

Veronique provided excellent car for my cat while I was away. She sent me so many cute photos and videos during my trip. I loved getting them every day! I really appreciated Veroniqueâs flexibility and her communication. Highly recommend and would book her again.

Kayla dropped in on my two cats a few times over the weekend. She was reliably there at just the right time and left my house in great condition, and the cats seemed calm and happy when we returned. She sent pictures and videos, which I loved. Communication was easy and fast. I would recommend Kayla and will ask her to watch my cats again!

Simone will take excellent care of your pet! He treated my kitties like they were his. Sent pics everyday of them and their litter boxes. He went above and beyond and I am very grateful. Very trustworthy and committed. Finally I can go on vacation and have peace of mind that my babies are well taking care of.
