Availability

I work full time Monday through Friday, so I'm primarily available for weekend and overnight stays. For weekday drop-ins or sits, I'll need advance notice to arrange time away from work. These work best for independent pets who are comfortable being alone for 8-10 hours during the day. But if you have specific dates in mind, please don't hesitate to inquire, as my primary employer is quite flexible.

Pet Sitting with a Personal Touch

Pet care experience

I'm passionate about keeping tails wagging and whiskers twitching! I believe in positive reinforcement because every pet deserves patience and encouragement. After spending two years with a well respected Chicago pet care company, I've had the joy of caring for all kinds of dogs and cats, from energetic puppies to senior sweethearts, anxious rescues to cats with attitude. I'm also trained in canine CPR for added peace of mind. You can count on me to be reliable, punctual, and to treat your furry family members like my own.

Bethany was both a fantastic animal caregiver and house guest, making sure our dog and cat were well cared for. Our house was spotless upon returning home. Bethany also went above and beyond when our flight home was delayed, staying “on call” until she knew we would make it back to our animals in time. Can’t recommend Bethany highly enough and hope to have her stay with our animals again in the future.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
