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 great, and took great care of my dog! She stayed at our home during the stay, and we came back to a tidy home. She was friendly and kept us updated about our dog throughout our short trip. We’ve already booked another stay with her! :)

Bethany did an amazing job watching my puppers. She was communicative the whole stay and provided many updates throughout. She stuck to schedules and routines to a tee. I would definitely have her watch my pups again and recommend her to anyone searching for a sitter!

Bethany did great with my 15 week puppy Ziggy. He was tired out and a happy guy when I got back. I’d recommend Bethany anytime she took great care of my pup!

Bethany was extremely communicative and a pleasure to work with. My dog Zoey it’s always a little standoffish with someone new. However, Bethany gave her the space to earn her trust. She took her for many long walks daily and made sure she had plenty of pets and snuggles when they became friends!! Bethany was very professional and super helpful while I was away. I hope to work w her 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.
