About: Whether your pup needs a place that feels like home while you are out of town or a fun friend to stay with when you are off at work, you will find what you are looking for with me. As an Ex High school teacher, I know how to be patient and still set boundaries. I have been caring for dogs for about 14 years, and have experience with dogs of all sizes. I know how important reliability and consistency is for our four-legged loves. And I will give nothing but love and attention to your cherished friend. I am available to watch your dog in my home Monday through Friday and am around for sleepovers 7 days a week. I currently work part-time from home, so I have plenty of time and attention to lavish on your pup which is what I love to do. I have a fenced-in yard and the ability to give your special friend a lot of attention. I take oodles of pictures and document our walks, so you know your pup is having fun. I also write personalized texts from your furry companion throughout their visit.
“Camille is so sweet and amazing! She really helped me when I had zero help at home. My harley has a new walking friend:) She is so trusting and responsive 10/10 :)”
“Kimberly is the most reliable dog walker and person we’ve ever had on Rover! She’s always prompt, communicative, and attentive to our boy. She goes above and beyond to make sure he’s well taken care of, and helps us keep an eye on his health as he continues to age. We hope to continue with Kimberly for years to come, and would absolutely recommend her to anyone!”
About: I love surrounding myself with pets. I have several of my own pets. I take care of blind, deaf, and reactive dogs. I love taking pets out for walks and playing with them while owners are away. I work different hours depending on the month. I'm currently available in the morning hours up to 1p. On the weekends I'll have more availability. I'd care for your family member like I would one of my own and respect your household. I'd clean up any messes your love one has made and let you know of any damages/messes

“Sergio is great and very compassionate individual to walk my dog Rosie! He listened and in detail about handling Rosie with being a large breed puppy. Highly recommend Sergio!”
“Leslie was amazing with our dog, Bucky! Bucky is a stubborn Shiba Inu, but with her patience and kindness, Leslie won his trust and heart over. She was also very understanding and attentive to his needs. We could tell that she really cared about him like we do. We are forever grateful to her and would definitely rebook and recommend Leslie to our friends and family!”
“I'll definitely book Jackie again. It's hard to leave your pup in the hands of someone you just met, but Jackie made us feel that Cooper was in good hands. We appreciated her consideration and care with him.”
“Thank you Coleen! Coleen was prompt and attentive. She provided the love and care our 7 year old dog needed while we were away. Our family had peace of mind knowing Buddy was well taken care of! When Buddy’s fresh dog food delivery arrived, while we were away, Coleen carried the heavy box inside and put it in the refrigerator for us! I know Coleen will do a great job because she cares!”

“Michelle is great, she communicates well keeping me in the loop in case anything happens. I like that she uses the report card so I know when the walk has started/ended and what my dog did during. Thanks Michelle”
“Andrea was great meeting both my pups for the first time! She asked questions about needs and anything important that would be helpful for walks or interactions with other animals/people. Introducing new people to a household can be stressful sometimes on pets, and my older pet can get protective. However, Andrea was super patient and understanding when it came to my slow introduction process. I appreciate her time and love for pets!”

I've been hired my neighbors, relatives, and family friends before to house sit/ pet sit. I think it's important to be careful and respectful at all times, to report any issues immediately, and treat the pet with the kindness and fun they usually receive from their owner! My family has previously kept a dog, geckos, a chameleon, fish, a rabbit,and a bird. My hobbies include chess, bowling, music and concerts, hiking and running. I'm located in the near-west suburbs but I have my own car so I'm happy to go anywhere around Chicagoland! Take care! currently working a flex position at Camp McKean for community and outdoor recreation. off all day on Sundays Mondays and Tuesdays. Rest of the week I could dog sit before or after work. Early morning or evening. I will always top off a pet's water bowl, take an inventory of supplies like poop bags, toys, where food is, etc. with Rover gigs before I've taken pictures and videos for the client to let them know how everything's going 😀
“Kelly was great walking my two dogs. She was punctual, friendly, easy to communicate, provided us with pictures and details of their walk. I would definitely recommend and use her services again.”
Montclare dog parents share their Rover experiences
Erin is absolutely incredible!!! We have two amazing pups, one who is a nervous, recent rescue. Our newer girl was struggling with a different walker, snapping and growling at each visit. Within minutes of meeting Erin, our little lady had clearly welcomed Erin into the fold. Erin is helping our girl to settle into life and gain more confidence with each walk! I would recommend Erin to anyone!!!!
Suzy has such a gentle aura! Wally made himself right at home. She was great in sending updates and photos. Suzy also made a point to adjust to Wally’s schedule and his training needs; this was a major point for us when looking for a dog sitter. She is reliable, responsive, and incredibly kind.
Mark is incredible, I was in a bind and was called into work last minute. I also just moved to the area and my pup Aura was still getting comfortable to the area. In the coldest negative degree weather, Mark took Aura for 3 walks and each walk was just over 3 miles!!! When I got home, Aura I could tell was so content and happy. Mark even sent the route in which he walked Aura and pictures of Aura's happiness while Mark took care of her! I also informed Mark that we are new to the Area and he assured me that he would take such good care of Aura and completely understands. It is so great to have someone like Mark, who shows interest in your story, and truly cares for the animal and there best interest. It was freezing outside and Mark cared more about the dogs experience and joy to be out and about, then he did over the cold. Thank you so much Mark, you are truly a great person to have in my dogs life!
An outstanding dog walker—reliable, caring, and truly professional. They consistently show up on time, communicate clearly, and treat my dog as if it were their own. Walks are well-structured, safe, and tailored to my dog’s needs, and I always feel confident knowing my pet is in capable hands. It’s clear they genuinely love animals and take pride in their work. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for dependable, high-quality pet care.
Malcomn has been really great with my two dogs, Fred and Rosie. They are both big dogs with a lot of quirks, but he handles it all professionally and is super friendly. I appreciate how he’s always on time and communicates well. I needed him to come daily for a while after having surgery, and he was able to make it happen every day for several weeks. I appreciated the commitment and we’re going to set up regular walks going forward.
Laura is absolutely wonderful with our Fernando! For starters, she’s very flexible and accommodating due to my ever-changing schedule. Secondly, she’s great with taking Fern out for his little walks/potty breaks, and even plays with him a bit before she heads out for the day, updating me on the new tricks they’re practicing! Lastly, Laura is great with communicating with me regarding everything involving Fern and their walks together. Thank you Laura for doing an awesome job!
