“We had an excellent experience with Malcomn while visiting Chicago! He took amazing care of our two large dogs, keeping them happy, exercised, and loved while we were away. I highly recommend him for anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive pet sitter!”
“It was our first time getting a sitter to stay in our home and care for our 3 dogs for 2 days and Kathryn did not dissapoint. She was very attentive, sweet, patient, and understood all the directions on what to do for our 3 fur babies since they all have different eating habits and personalities. She made sure she texted me throughout her stay if she had any questions and sent us plenty of pics to keep us updated. She was very respectful of our home too. Her price is completely reasonable and I felt like the kids were in good hands with her. I would ask for her help again in the future and I definitely recommend.”
“Another amazing stay with excellent care of our beloved pups! Laurel went above and beyond for us while we had travel delays and kept us updated during our entire trip! We couldn’t ask for a better pet sitter!”
“Alexa did a wonderful job taking care of our dog in our home over a long holiday weekend. She was communicative, made sure Beau got his walks and play time, left our home clean and our dog happy. She followed our instructions on everything and asked questions when she wasn’t sure about something. We hope our dog wasn’t too crazy for her, but we would gladly welcome her back! So grateful we found Alexa.”
“My Dog Dottie loved Ava! Dottie has tons of energy and Ava spoiled her with long walks and lots of dog park trips. I felt so relieved that my pup was in great hands. Ava sent lots of pictures and updates and left the house nicer than she found it. The best! Already booking her again”
“I had the pleasure of hiring Patrick W to care for my beloved furry friends, Ray-Ray and Wyatt l, and couldn’t be more thrilled with the experience. From the moment we met, it was clear that Patrick has a genuine love for animals. He immediately connected with my boys, making me feel at ease leaving my dogs in his capable hands. Throughout the duration of the dog house sitting service, my dogs were well cared for and Patrick generally stuck to the feeding and walking schedule I provided, and I received regular updates and photos, which brought me comfort during my time away. Patrick genuinely cared and took the time to play with the dogs and give them the attention they need, ensuring they received plenty of exercise and affection. If you’re in need of a trustworthy, dedicated, and caring dog sitter, I highly recommend Patrick W. He exceeded my expectations and I will be reaching out to him for future pet-sitting needs. Thank you, Patrick, for being such a wonderful caregiver to my four-legged family members!”
“Travis did a wonderful job with our dogs. We had all confidence in his abilities from our initial meeting. We kept in touch during the trip through Rover, and Travis was quick to respond, we never had any concerns.”
“Margaret was amazing! She was so wonderful to work with. She took such good care of our zoo family which consisted of 4 dogs and 2 cats for 5 days. She also took care of our home. She made sure our babies felt comfortable while we were away. I will definitely be booking with Margaret if she's available!”

“We were very pleased with the service Stephanie provided for our Jack. I knew he was well cared for as she kept us updated with progress and pictures. We will be glad to use Stephanie as Jack's caregiver in the future. Kathy M.”
About: So far, the longest I’ve taken car of a dog is 10 years. Other than that, I’ve been around many other dogs who seem to like my presence. I currently am part time and my schedule is usually pretty flexible so I can stop in whenever is needed to let the dogs outside or to walk them. I always want to make sure that the animals are comfortable with me so I think a meeting before the job would be beneficial. Any schedule you have would be appreciated and followed to the letter.
About: I've taken care of dogs of all kinds since I was in Grammer school. At one point in my life I shared a home with four roommates with pets. All together we had 3 dogs and 4 cats at one time. I have had 3 cats in my lifetime as well. My family, wife and daughter, currently have no pets,(our family Doberman passed a few years ago)so it seems the perfect time to provide care for your pets in your time of need. I currently work part time in the music industry and real-estate. I have flexible days to offer for your pets. My wife and daughter are also very good with pets. In a way, you get 3 care givers for the price of one! I have a spacious backyard that has a secure 6 foot wooden fence all the way around the property. My family and I currently do not have pets besides our fish, Blueberry, so all our attention can be focused on your loved one.
About: Dogs gravitate me & vice versa I have loved and cared for two Wheaton Terriers for a total of 18 years and don’t plan on stopping One day at a time, one week at a time I can adapt to any schedule. I like to stay busy so I am capable of juggling several jobs. I will earn your trust quickly The dogs will like me right away because I am playful. I will keep them active & occupied to make sure they are healthy and happy.
“Sara was amazing! We set up a meet and greet so she was able to meet Lela. There was a very comfortable feeling with the interaction with her and my dog. She came into my home and not only took care of Lela but played with her outside. I got updates, because I was the one feeling anxious. I will continue to use Sara for future sittings.”
