“Stefanie gives such thorough (and cute) updates and adapts to my dog’s needs so much! She has been able to accommodate last minute requests due to a crazy work schedule on top of being thoughtful, responsive, and kind with my pup. I recommend her for any dog sitting needs!”

About: One of my top specialties is last minute visits, with as little as one day's notice. Since I have 15 years of experience with cats and dogs of all ages, I find it easy to care for them and love on them like my own. I can do visits at pet friendly Chicago hotels, especially cats.I can give pets pills (in treats) and topical medications. I must do meet and greets or see video clips of dog's energy levels for all of the ones that need to be taken out for potty breaks, to ensure safety. I do part time afternoon, evening, and weekend work, but I can be flexible about late mornings. I can do a few overnight visits per month. I adjust my routine for each animal's unique needs. I take a proactive approach to safety and trust including doing live meet and greet trial runs with dogs to ensure I can handle their energy levels. I have pet sitter insurance. I scan the home for potential hazards and alert pet parents to any problems.
“Emily is the best! It’s great knowing Cat has such a caring and thoughtful sitter checking in when I’m not around. Love the updates and pictures/videos uploads each day!!”

“Shan was absolutely wonderful! Her communication was excellent from start to finish—she kept me updated and was always quick to respond. She’s incredibly kind, thoughtful, and clearly loves what she does. I felt completely at ease leaving my furbaby in her care and would happily book with her again. 🐾”

“Elizabeth is wonderful! She was so attentive, loving, and communicative throughout the entire stay. My cat was relaxed and happy when I returned, and I could tell he was well taken care of. Highly recommend!”

“Kacy is our regular Cat Sitter. She is incredibly reliable and trustworthy and the cats warmed up to her immediately. She does an excellent job of tidying up after one of our cats who likes to kick litter around. Highly recommend Kacy!!!!!”

“Diana took amazing care of my high energy cat! She spent ample time playing with him and took tons of adorable pictures of their time together ❤️ can’t wait to book her again!”

“Conner was great! Salem isn’t always brave with new people but Conner managed to get Salem to warm up to them and sent some adorable pics in the process. Instructions were followed to the tee”

“Madilyn was super communicative and sweet with my cat! Went above and beyond to check on things around my home as well. Will definitely book again!”

“Kimmi was the best! She was punctual, communicative, and checked in consistently while caring for Ralph. She was also flexible when needed, which I really appreciated. Handling an 11-week-old puppy in the middle of his teething stage isn’t easy, but she did it with so much patience, care, and love. I felt completely comfortable knowing Ralph was in great hands and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful sitter.”

“Emily was amazing, my cats warmed up to her quickly! She was very proactive about pet updates and keeping things tidy when the cats made a mess. Will definitely book with her again the next time I’m out of town!”

“Erica was very attentive and went above and beyond to take care of my cat. Most sitters think just because it’s a cat they just need to show up and do nothing so I appreciate when someone actually takes care of my cat and makes sure he’s good. Definitely highly recommend!”

“Cassi was amazing! She was on time, quick to respond, and my cat was in the best mood after spending time with her. Will definitely book with her again!”


“Annie was extremely communicative and helpful while she watched my cat while I was traveling. I could tell she took great care of my little guy. Would greatly recommend!”

“I am so happy with the service Andrea provided to check on my cat, Theo. Being new to Chicago I was nervous to leave him, but Andrea sent photos and followed all the instructions I left. I came home to a happy cat!”

“Reema was great as always! A great communicator and took great care of my cat. She cleaned up a mat after he had an accident (I’m so sorry!!) and always made sure he had water, clean litter boxes, and attention.”

“Tara was amazing in taking care of our cat over the holiday and we will definitely book with her again! Our typically shy cat warmed right up to her, and she sent lots of great pictures.”

“Took such great care of my cats, kept in touch, and my place was spotless when I returned home. I can't recommend them enough. Thank you Jason & Olivia!”

Kristi took such great care of my two cats! She followed instructions well and catered to each of their personalities, which I really appreciated. She was also very communicative, took lots of photos, and gave detailed updates. Highly recommend if you're looking for a pet sitter!
Mina is everything you're looking for in a Rover! She was on time every day, sent tons of photos/videos and written updates on our pets mood/state of play! Fantastic communication. Our home was exactly as we left it. Biscotti's food and water was full when we got back. We were away for quite some time, and she provided our pet the consistency we were looking for during our trip and made us feel confident our pet was in good hands. This was our first time using Rover and we will 10/10 be requesting Mina again in the future. Thank you!

Lauren was amazing with Nala and so communicative with me and my boyfriend. We had to coordinate a few last minute schedule changes and Lauren was always understanding! She is kind and considerate. It literally does not get any better. Book her for a walk or boarding, you will NOT REGRET IT! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Kelly is honestly the best Rover sitter. Part of me does not even want to leave a review because I want to gatekeep her, but she deserves it! She is thorough, reliable, prompt, and so communicative. What stands out most is that she genuinely spends time with my cats and gets them engaged with toys they would normally ignore with me. It is clear she pays attention to their personalities and makes sure they are comfortable, cared for, and having fun. I leave knowing they are in the absolute best hands, which is such a relief. I would recommend Kelly to anyone who wants someone who will truly care for their pets, not just stop by and check a box.

Katie was great. She did everything that was asked. She played with the cats, sent photos and was able to give my cat medicine which isn’t the easiest of tasks! I would recommend her to any cat owner and in the future if she is available I would hire her again! Thanks Katie!
