Reliable Sitter in Roscoe Village

[Update: I’m currently taking new clients within Roscoe Village and North Center only!] Hi, I’m Roxy! I offer attentive, reliable care for cats & dogs of all ages and personalities, from high-energy puppies to seniors needing extra support. I tailor visits based on each pet’s temperament, whether that means playtime or just peaceful company. I take safety seriously and treat every visit like a professional commitment. Whether it’s a short walk or a longer stay, I make sure your pets are mentally and physically stimulated, and your home is respected. I’m happy to include extras like plant care or mail pickup for longer trips. My service area is intentionally small (Roscoe Village and nearby North Center) so I can focus on quality and reliability. Happy to pop by for a meet & greet!

Roxy is a dream! My senior dog was sick earlier in the week and needed some extra attention when Roxy walked him. Think extra food, medicine, walks, etc. Roxy handled the whole thing like a champ AND agreed to watch him on extremely short notice. 1000% would book again!

Roxy was on time, communicated throughout, loving to my pet and my foster. Will definitely be using her as my go to dog sitter/walker.

Roxanne was great and patient with our kitties! They can be a little shy but she made sure they were taken care of and we had great updates! Glad we found her in the Roscoe area!

Henri had another great stay with Roxy. Daily updates and pictures kept us aware of his stay and the fun he was having.

Schedule

I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I’m available for morning, midday, or evening visits depending on your pet’s needs. I have a car for reliable transportation and know my way around the North Side, even in rough winter weather.

Safety, trust & environment

I take your trust seriously. I’m always respectful in my clients’ homes and careful with your supplies and belongings. I communicate clearly, follow instructions, and provide detailed updates. For boarding requests: I live in a tidy, well-stocked condo. I don’t have a yard, though I do live near Hamlin Park. Please note I may not be able to accept boarding requests for big barkers, so as to not disrupt my neighbors who work from home or have young children.

A typical day

I match each pet’s vibe on a case by case basis - playing with their favorite toys, going for walks, or cuddling on the couch. Whatever they’re in the mood for.

I appreciate knowing if your scheduling is flexible or time-sensitive. Additionally, please let me know if your pet has specific triggers (like other dogs, children, or bikes), so I can plan safe and calm walks.
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.
