Pet Sitting Oak Park

“We couldn’t be happier with the care that Mary provides for our dog. Bodger aka Huevo absolutely loves her and it’s clear that Mary genuinely cares about the animals she watches. She has also been incredibly flexible and accommodating with our changing work schedules which has been such a help Because our dog is a rescue finding someone we could completely trust was extremely important to us. Mary exceeded our expectations and gave us peace of mind from the very beginning. Knowing Huevo is safe and happy and well cared for when we’re away is priceless. We highly recommend Mary to anyone looking for a dependable and caring and trustworthy dog sitter!”

“Mitzi is absolutely amazing. She sent me pictures of my baby boy during visits. Which were always an absolute delight to receive. I know my baby boy is in good hands. She also provided some general observations for me to follow up on.”

“I was so happy to be able to book Donai again. Second time’s a charm! I knew my cats were in great hands, and I always loved seeing the Rover reports and pictures while I was enjoying my trip. Thanks for your flexibility and your clear communication!”

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a young girl. I also have worked with sick dogs, elderly dogs, and wired puppies. I can assure you I will care for your dog the exact way I would for mine, all the love, treats and pets I have. I work a very flexible schedule at my day job and it is only about 5 minutes away from my home, so I am able to come home at work if need be. We are normally free and around our home on the weekend. We have a very large side and back yard that I would love to provide supervised play time with your dog. If your dog gets along with other dogs, we own the friendliest black lab who will provide some social fun for your dog. If your dog is not great with others we are more than happy to leave our dog inside and give yours a dedicated outdoor space to play. We also have an abundance of dog toys - too many in my opinion for your pet to play with! We love to frequent local parks and go on walks on various distances as well! Whatever your dog enjoys we can aim to make happen!

“Eleanor always takes the best care of our cat while we are away! I always used to stress about who was taking care of him while I was gone and constantly worried about how he was doing. While she has been our pet sitter for the last couple vacations all my worries have been gone! She takes the best care of him and I could not recommend her more!”

“Grace was fantastic! Oliver clearly loved spending time with her! She went above and beyond and relieved my stress of having to leave my pup at home for so long. I will definitely be booking again in the future 😄”

About: I am the biggest animal lover and I would agree that they love me just as much! I am a babysitter and I work as a substitute in the GCCS school system. (Requests outside of my radius may require a travel fee) I am a substitute teacher so with that I do not have to work every single day which gives me extra free time for pet care! I offer care for pets in a clients home by following all instructions and respecting my clients space, boundaries and pets. I understand how much fur babies mean!

“Miranda was so amazing with our boys. Hank (boxer) is too excitable for most people but she handled him with care and love and wasn't turned off by his hyper behavior. Hibbert (bulldog) would bring his toys to her and enjoyed being around her. She is smart, punctual, and you can tell just loves animals.”

About: Hello! I've owned dogs since I was 5 and love being a dog owner. Having 3 dogs now I understand one of the difficult parts of owning them is figuring out their care while you're unavailable. This is where I come in! I have years of experience dealing with other people's dogs through teaching obedience classes and house sitting. With my own dogs, I've trained 3 dogs to compete in agility competitions and enjoy spending time with them. I'm available to walk and watch your dog most week nights and some weekends. I'm also available to house sit on the weekends. I am able to brush and bathe your dog if needed as well! I look forward to helping you and your dog with your pet care needs! I'm available most week nights and most weekends for house sitting, walks, and dog sitting in my home. Your pet will have regular potty breaks throughout the day regardless if it's a weekday or weekend! I have a tall fenced in yard with plenty of shade for those hot summer days. Living in Crescent Hills area, there's tons of walking areas nearby so your pet will get the exercise it needs!

“Emily is great. Super nice, flexible, attentive to our dog, took lots of notes, and asked lots of great questions to ensure their time together went smoothly. She even thought to look ahead to the weather and ask about rain protocol for walking the dog. We’ll definitely book again!”

About: I grew up with multiple pets, we often called it the "Cook Family Zoo". I've helped take care of many cats, dogs, turtles, fish and even ferrets at one point! I currently have two dogs a terrier/cattle dog mix and a German shepherd/lab mix puppy! They both are rescues and love to cuddle. I volunteer with a local dog rescue and am a proud foster fail. :) I’m passionate about protecting all furry friends and finding the perfect home for each loving animal. I love all animals, big or small, and do my best to be flexible and communicate with you quickly and thoroughly. I hope you will consider me to help take care of your loved ones and I will be sure to give them lots of love while you're away. Currently working full time but have availability on weekends and most evenings to help out! I also have flexibility at work so depending on your needs can make drop in visits and walks during the day. I work from home occasionally too so I can usually be flexible as needed. If visiting your home I would respect your wishes around routine training, diet and behavior. I typically provide photos and/or text updates of your pet so you know they’re doing well and we’ll looked after even when you’re not able to be there!

About: Hi, I have been around animals of all different shapes and sizes my whole life. In addition to taking care of my own cat, I volunteer at the animal shelter to provide care and fostering. I would love to meet your furry friend! I recently completed my bachelor's degree at UCLA and relocated to Louisville to begin my professional career. Although I love pets, my lifestyle does not allow me to have a pet full-time. I will give the pets I care for maximal attention and energy. I think it is most important when a dog/cat is in a new environment or in one with new people is to make them feel comfortable and safe. In order to insure this I would spend time with the dog/cat and owner before I care for them on my own

About: Hello! I love looking after family and friend’s pets and would love the chance to do it more often. I’m responsible and caring and I will take very good care of your pets. Hi! I’m a flight attendant on reserve, which basically means I’m on call. So I’ll know a head of time the days I’m off for the following month. The days I’m call, I’ll usually be at home waiting around, so I’ll still be free to do pop ins and walks. I have a fenced in yard for them to play in. I will walk them frequently. I will also make sure they are well taken care of and loved until they are back with you.

“I recieved such peace of mind knowing my fur baby's were in such good hands. I received updates and could tell my pups were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I would definitely recommend!”

About: I’ve taken care of, for one, my own dog since I was young and besides from that my neighbors, friends, and family always rely on me when they’re out of town to take care of their pets:) I’ve taken care of puppies and senior dogs! I’m currently enrolled at the University Of Louisville, and have some in person and also online classes so when I’m available could differ but I’m pretty flexible and I could bring my laptop anywhere! I love pets like they’re my own, I have a deep spot in my heart for them all🥹 I can crate any size dog if need be (I know some worry about that). More than happy to take them out wherever whenever, play/walk with them, or bathe them:)!

“JT came through for me the last minute as I had to run out of town. My dog always seems to enjoy his time with JT, too. Can't go wrong booking him!”

About: Caring for other is my passion. Whether it's people or pets. I love animals and treat them like another member of the family. I grew up with pets and I've cared for them my entire life. I also have a nack for training dogs as well. I potty trained my dog and taught her to open doors and take items to others. I can provide play data as well with family members who have pets as well with other rover customers if desired. I live in a safe and clean environment that will foster a great experience for all parties. I'm looking to build long lasting relationships with all pets and their owners. Choosing me will be a great choice. Have a great day. Thank you for your consideration.
