About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats my entire life—everything from playful puppies and kittens to senior pets with special needs, including administering medication and providing gentle, attentive care. I truly love spending time with animals and enjoy walking dogs in my free time—it’s one of the highlights of my day! I currently share my home with a sweet three-legged black lab, so I’m no stranger to pets who need a little extra love and patience. Whether your furry friend is high-energy or needs a slower pace, I’ll make sure they’re safe, happy, and well cared for. I work remotely and have free time in the mornings, lunchtime and evenings to care for someone’s pet. I would love to walk dogs throughout the day. I will make sure the pets have plenty of water and food. I will also ensure pets are secure and play with the pets, if requested.

“Sam is the best babysitter in the area. I would not trust anybody else honestly. I've tried half a dozen sitters in this area and she is the absolute best. She provides detailed notes in lots of pictures by request. I'm truly thankful to have found her.”



“Lori was great. Even our shy non social girl cat was comfortable enough to come out when Lori was in the house. The pictures where icing on the cake.”


“Megan is absolutely wonderful! She keeps our kitties very entertained and sends the cutest pictures and funny details about their silly adventures 😻🥰 We are so thankful for the great care and attention that she provides for our silly kitties. 🐈⬛ 🐈⬛🐈”



“John was incredibly reliable and very attentive to our furry family member. He provided frequent updates and ensured our cat was well cared for. We know we can count on John!”


“Adaline is AMAZING! We’re so happy to have someone we trust to come visit our puppy during the day while we’re gone for work. She not only ensures that our girl gets her potty breaks, but she also provides exceptional care with so much affection and patience with our very energetic pup. We couldn’t be happier!”


“Ana did such a fantastic job! Thank you for taking such great care visiting my babies. I really appreciate how you take such amazing pride for how you care for animals. It shows and I am so grateful for it!”


“Kellie was absolutely amazing. She went above and beyond to help us during one of the most difficult times in our lives. She was patient, understanding, flexible, and gave us such peace of mind allowing us to focus on being with family during the loss of my father and one of our fur-babies. I couldn't have asked for a better individual to come into our lives at our lowest point. She did such a great job with our fur-babies as well! It's not always easy working with stray/feral cats (which both out girls are), but she was amazing with them. I will definitely call her again for our next trip!”


“Jessi was amazing with my pups. They can be a handful, but she was extremely patient and professional. I will definitely rebook with her in the future.”


“I am so thankful that Virginia was able to take care of our rescue doggies in our home. They get scared when we take them to a kennel because they think we've returned them to the shelter. She takes amazing photos of our pets that I want to have printed. Our boys were happy and relaxed when we got back home. We are all very grateful for the care Virginia gives our pets!”


“Janelle jumped in and helped with a last-second booking and was absolutely wonderful. She provided photo updates and a detailed description of events with each visit. I felt very assured that my energetic dog was in good hands. Highly recommend and will definitely book again!”


About: I’ve had dogs from a young age. Staying with me, they will get attention, love, play time and cuddles. They will also get to play with my dog Lexi. I work from home full time so I’m always here. I’m able to go outside and play with your pups or give them extra attention. I have a fenced in yard with locks on my gates. I have a doggie door and the back door is always open. I have a 5 year old pup that is very calming and caring. She has been great with other dogs. She is very nurturing and always makes sure those in her space are safe. I have a couple of stories I can provide about her. I am very hands on and constantly checking on my girl and will do the same for your furbaby. Safety is very important to me, not only for your furbaby but for myself and my furbaby as well.

“This was our first time ever hiring a pet sitter so we didn’t quite know what to expect. We picked Lindsay based on her profile and reviews and we liked that she lived really close. We met her and immediately knew that she would be great with our two cats and dog. They all immediately took to her as well which was a great sign! We only did a two day one night trip but we will definitely look forward to having Lindsay watch our pets again! She communicated how they were doing and sent lots of great pictures. Thank you so much for taking such good care of our pets while we were able to go on a quick trip. Looking forward to longer trips in the future and I’ll know that our pets are in great hands!”

I get a lot of pictures and updates that I enjoy, so the constant communication is so comforting. Prior to utilizing Jennifer's services these past couple of years, I had used a boarding service. Juliet never did well there. She is so much happier in the comfort of home services. I cannot recommend Jennifer any higher!”

“Cassidy is amazing!! She took such good care of my dog and sent great updates after every visit - I would highly recommend her to care for your furry ones”
Oakwood Park pet parents share their Rover experiences
First time using this app I was extremely impressed with the app and service I received from Laurie! Laurie was very thorough and thoughtful from everything to the meet and greet to the last day she was with my cat. Throughout my vacation she would send me pictures and updates of her time with scratch (my cat) and because of her background she was able to read my cats body language and know when he was starting to get comfortable with her or not. Laurie cleaned the litter box and was on top of feedings and treats. Overall if I had to do this again I would have no hesitation in using Laurie again. She honestly differed every star I gave her!

Jessi was amazing with my pups. They can be a handful, but she was extremely patient and professional. I will definitely rebook with her in the future.

Can't thank Megan enough for the care she provided to my babies, such thoughtful notes and pictures. It made me feel at ease leaving them for so long. 💜

This was my first time using this app. We went back and forth if we were even going to leave town due to our dogs (and weather). Sam was quick to respond, follow up when I asked her to, and on-time to meet and greet. At the meet and greet she asked good questions. I could also tell that she genuinely cares about the services she offers, which when you have pets that are a part of your family, that’s extremely important. To the first visit, she was punctual. She send detailed information after the visit with photos of our girls. This also made me less anxious about the overall experience. I will definitely be using Sam again as I go back to work and when I travel in the future. It’s great having one less thing to worry about.

Dominic did a great job taking care of my dog while I was on vacation. He is very communicative and my dog loved him. I strongly recommend his services.

Shoshana was amazing! Took great care of our fur babies while we were out of town. Communicated perfectly with photos and updates. Thank you so much!

Misti was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of our animals. I’ve never felt more at ease leaving my animals with someone. We have peace of mind when out of town that our fur babies will not only have their basics cared for, but loved too!

Madison was very sweet to my kitty, made sure to give me frequent updates daily, along with numerous pictures. I look forward to booking her again 😊.

This is the 2nd time we've used Nicole and she once again did an amazing job with dogs! Highly recommend!

Virginia is great, we know our pets will be in great hands with her! She is easy to work with & super accommodating!

Ana is so wonderful! She is caring, understanding, and very considerate. I feel lucky to have her watch my babies!

Dustin does a great job with our 2 older dogs! He spends extra time with them giving cuddles and letting them outside several times during each visit. He also checks in to be sure we don't need anything extra before leaving the key after his last visit.

Janelle is amazing! She’s so great with my dog and sends the best updates. It gives me a little peace when I’m out of town knowing she’ll be there to visit with him. I’ll definitely use her every time. I’m so grateful we connected with her. ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
