About: I’ve been around dogs of all sizes and personalities since I was six years old, having grown up with a variety of breeds. For the past 8 years, I’ve been actively pet sitting and dog walking, caring for everything from tiny terriers to giant breeds. I currently have a large dog of my own with a big personality and unpredictable behaviors, so I’m very comfortable handling excitable, quirky, or high-energy pets. I’m also experienced with administering medications—oral, topical or injections—as my own pup requires daily meds. Whether your dog needs a calm presence or someone who can match their playful energy, I’m here to provide safe, reliable, and loving care. I truly love working with dogs and treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. As a full-time student with a flexible schedule, I can easily accommodate daytime visits, walks, and special needs. I have some days where I am busier than others, however I still manage my time well. I am available for drop ins, daily walks, and/or spending a little extra time with those who need it (or want it of course). Your pets will be in great hands!
“Shin provides excellent service, great communication, and is very flexible. My two cats absolutely adore her as well 🥰 I’ve booked with Shin several times, and the service is always amazing. I’ll definitely continue using her services, she’s awesome!”

“Stevie is absolutely fantastic. It is very obvious that she cares about our dogs with each interaction. She more often than not stays longer than she has to just so the dogs get some extra hang time. Stevie makes it so I can actually stop worrying about my pups while I’m away. She sends loads of great photos every time with a little paragraph telling me about the drop in. 10/10 would recommend”
“Tiffany gave us such peace of mind by watching our cat during our wedding weekend!! I knew he was in great hands. She sent lots of photos and detailed updates which we loved. I highly recommend her!”

“My little girl was taken care of and got to stretch her legs mid day! Definitely gave me so much peace of mind to have such a kind hearted person care for my best friend.”


“Mylene is kind, enthusiastic, respectful and dependable. Rudy is thriving with her attention! Mylene communicates promptly and leaves detailed, informative reports along with photos that ensure that Rudy is happy and well cared for while I am at work. She is top notch…highly recommend!! Thank you Mylene😁”

“Elizabeth is so great with Miss Rosemary always! My sweet girl enjoys the drop in visits. I feel so at ease knowing Elizabeth will be checking on her making sure all is well when I am away!”

“Mo was awesome! I needed a last minute sitter for the 4th of July holiday weekend, and Mo took the job quickly! Prompt communicator, punctual, and an amazing cat photographer, and I was able to enjoy my trip knowing my baby was taken care of. I will definitely contact Mo next time I need a catsitter!”

“We booked Chelsea in a last-minute situation because I was concerned our pets needed a little more time outside. This was truly the best decision we've ever made! Chelsea is incredibly organized, detailed, and prompt. Her attention to detail is unmatched; she noticed and addressed even the smallest needs of our pets, ensuring they were comfortable and happy. She went above and beyond to give us complete peace of mind while we were on vacation. We received beautiful photos of all of our pets, along with detailed updates on their water and bathroom breaks, playtime, and overall well-being. Chelsea's communication is exceptional—she's extremely responsive to all messages and clear about scheduling, making the entire process seamless and stress-free. Chelsea's dedication and passion for pet care are evident in everything she does. We will be booking fully with her on all future trips from now on. If you're looking for someone who provides exceptional quality care and treats your pets like her own, Chelsea is the perfect choice!”


“LeNai was absolutely fantastic with Moses. I swear, he’s found a new best friend and this finicky old man turned into a cuddle monster with LeNai (which he does not do!). I will definitely booking with LeNai again.”
About: I've always been a pet lover and once I became a nanny I had the opportunity to not only care for the children but the pets as well. I then started pet/house sitting. I have experience in administering medicine. I walk, bath, love and play with the pets I care for. I am a single mother and my daughter is with me all the time. We would love to take care of your fur babies who are good around children. . I'm available for morning walks/feedings. I'm also available all weekend. I work part-time as a nanny in the early afternoon till 6 but I'm free to do check ins. At the moment I am unable to provide care in my home. This is temporary and I'll offer those services again mid June, thank you.
“I loved and appreciated Paige’s updates throughout her visits to my cats, and loved her energy when we first met. I know she gave my girls lots of attention and look forward to working with her again!”

“Sage is a great pet sitter! Our two cats took to her quickly during the meeting, and she provided great updates each visit. Sage was also very communicative while cat sitting during a bad thunderstorm, helping make sure the babies were okay if power went out. Our home and cat areas were clean and well-kept when we returned. Thank you, Sage!!”

“Thank you Teresa for taking such great care of my bunnies. I absolutely loved all the pictures and updates she sent me. It gave me a lot of peace of mind knowing they were well taken care of. I loved how detailed the updates were and all the questions she asked to take the best care possible for them. Excellent service and I would recommend Teresa to everyone needing care for their pets.”


“Very friendly, our pups loved her! She also made sure to contact us when she was worried about one of our dogs whose eating habits changed, and was very easy to stay in contact with. She also brought in some delivered packages for us which was very kind. Would highly recommend!”

About: I’ve taken care of a dog ever since I’ve got my first one when I was eight, and now that I’m older and living on my own I have my own dog who is almost 3, who still acts just like a puppy. Since joining Rover, I have taken care of a variety of different dogs of all breeds, and sizes with all kinds of different needs. Im currently only doing Rover so im available full time! I enjoy going out during the day and running errands so I'm more available at night and can provide your baby with as much love and attention as they want!! No matter what neighborhood you may live in, I promise your pets will always be safe with me, I am very observant and watchful of pets and I always do my best to make sure that they are very well taken care of as if they are my own.
Oak Forest pet parents share their Rover experiences
I cannot recommend Kimberly enough! She does weekly visits with my pup and has also watched him for both short and long stays, and I always know he’s in the best hands. She truly cares for him like he’s her own, and it shows in the love and attention she gives him. Her pup is also an amazing playmate, so I know my dog is not only safe and cared for, but genuinely happy while I’m away. She’s reliable, thoughtful, and treats every dog as she would her own!

My pets love Chelsea! And so do I! My dog was hesitant at first but Chelsea was patient and let Marley warm up to her at his pace. Now he gets the zoomies when he sees her! I love the daily updates. She writes about her visits and takes pictures and it’s so comforting while I'm away to see and hear how well the pets are doing. I would definitely recommend Chelsea. She’s kind, professional, knowledgable and does all the things with my pets that they love to do!

Harmony was so sweet and loving towards all of my animals, even my fish. You can tell she cares and she does a wonderful job. I’m so glad she helped keep my babies company while I was away. I know Rosie loved the cuddles and Panini enjoyed playtime. Thank you Harmony!
