“Margaret (Peggy) has been wonderful! She is very accommodating, changing the schedule last minute to meet our needs. Our puppy is always happy and relaxed when we arrive home after a long day of work because of his mid-day walks with Peggy. We are so glad we found her. Thank you Peggy!”

About: I've owned and cared for all kinds of animals my whole life. Professionally, I have experience working as a dog handler, kennel attendant, dog bather, and groomer. I also have extensive experience working and caring for cats, horses, and various small animals. My +3 years working at a dog daycare facility had me safely handling a pack of up to 25 dogs; providing exercise & engagement, soft corrections, and positive reinforcement. To do so, it was necessary to be observant and in tune with the dog's behavior and always on the lookout for any signs of stress or aggression. As a bather and groomer, I was focused on hygiene but a large aspect of the job relied on my knowledge of dog behavior and training techniques. I've owned cats my entire life and have worked with a TNR rescue the past few years getting pregnant females and unneutered male cats fixed and adopted. I also have pet care insurance with animal baliee coverage in case of emergencies. I always care for every animal as if they are my own and I understand how important it is for them to feel comfortable and loved. I work part-time on the night shift, so I'm out of the house between 9:30pm and 3am Monday through Friday. Outside of that- my schedule is flexible. I am available on most weekends and holidays. I only book one client at a time for boarding, so your pet(s) will have my full attention. I live in a quiet suburban neighborhood with a huge, unfenced yard. I own a variety of animal care supplies and equipment including lunge-line leashes to keep dogs safely on my property.

“Anna walked our dog several times a week over 3 weeks in January while my spouse was out of town and I at work. She was always right on time and took great care of our little girl - putting her jacket on (frigid cold weather they both endured!), wiping her paws, giving her treats - and always ensured the house was secure when she left. I'm so happy that I have a go-to person we can count on! Thanks Anna!!”

“Sophia took great care of our pup for his walk. She was very responsive and we appreciated her communication. Would trust her with our boy again!”

About: Hi im Angela, I got my first pup when I was 11 (beagle/border collie mix) and my first cat when I was 13 (grey American shorthair), I’ve pet sat for and walked different dogs and cats in my neighborhood/for family members since i was 12 and it’s always been something that’s brought me a ton of joy! I have experience giving oral medication and doing basic grooming (bathing, ear cleaning, paw wiping) and I’m good with dogs and cats of all ages, from kitties/puppies to seniors. If you let me care for your fur baby, they will surely be cared for like they’re one of my own! I currently work another job but my schedule is pretty flexible and can be moved around easily to come help out with any of your pups/cats needs. For safety and peace of mind, I always make sure to follow any instructions left/given as closely as possible, and I always contact the owner If there are any issues unless otherwise noted. As well as sending photos and updates upon request.

“Shelby is awesome. Maci is a very shy very reactive dog. Shelby is a calm and patient with her. I can’t wait for them to continue working on a bond.”

About: I have been a reliable pet sitter for neighbors, friends and family members for over a decade. Over the years, I’ve had huge success in gaining pet-sitting tasks through referrals and word of mouth. I’ve decided to bring my expertise to Rover in hopes of meeting even more fur friends! I try my best to replicate your pet’s daily routine and make sure they are comfortable and having fun at the same time. I often pet-sit at the pet/owners home to keep the pet in their natural environment, but I offer boarding at my own home, too! I am currently working full-time with the option to work remotely. Working remote allows me to provide the flexibility and time needed for pet sitting. I am available throughout the week and weekends for boarding, dog walking, and even check-ins. I live in a pet friendly condominium located in a safe neighborhood. Taking walks in the neighborhood is great. There are several trails for adventurous walks, too!

“Ann has been on-time and obviously loves dogs! Jack is a happy guy!”

“Sam always does a spectacular job, our dogs absolutely adore her and she treats them with such love and respect that I honestly don't even worry when we're away because I know they're in good hands. She goes above and beyond to send pictures and updates and will sit with the pups after their walk to give them pets and talk to them. She always works with us to meet our time schedule needs for walks and treats our home with respect as well. I can't say enough about how much we appreciate that we found such a trustworthy and reliable walker for our two little dogs! They have the best time with her on their walks and when we come home from our trips they're less stressed and more just happy to see us because they've gotten proper exercise and lovins in our absence. Thanks again for the walks, Tater and Abby will be excited to see us leave next time so they can get more! Haha”

I've taken care of dogs after surgeries and kept them comfortable and assisted them getting around safely. I have completed dog training classes with my dogs and have taught them tricks! I have a huge place in my heart for all dogs and will take care of your dogs like they're my own! I am currently a stay at home mom with our 4 year old son. I would be available to take care of your dog(s) throughout the day. Israel, Jaxson and I live in a house with a fenced in yard with our two dogs, 11 year old mixed breed, Annabelle and 8 year old, Sophie, a Wheaten Terrier. We love meeting new dogs and enjoy seeing our dog friends return for another visit! Feel free to reach out to me with any questions!

About: I'm a true animal lover with tons of patience and experience. I have 3 dogs at home and they are my best friends. I rescued Maggie when she was a year old 9 years ago, and raised my 2 Shiba Inu boys from puppies. I used to have 1 cat as well but she passed away due to old age. I work from home so I'm fairly flexible. I recently move to Burr Ridge area and I'm hoping to take advantage of my work from home situation and provide some help to people with a busy work schedule. My home is a single family house sitting on nearly an acer with a fully fenced backyard. So the dogs have plenty of space to run around safely.

“Phyllis has been a godsend!! We have used her twice to care for our dog, Maggie. As soon as we met Phyllis we knew our dog would be in good hands and she was! Phyllis met our dog and us to ensure it was a good fit. She provided consistent update and pictures showing Maggie was doing well. We would highly recommend Phyllis!”

About: I have been pet sitting since I was a teenager. It started with neighbors and family friends and grew from there. I have experience with senior animals, reptiles, rabbits, deer, and medication and pets with special needs! I’m currently in clinicals at the Naval Hospital Tuesdays - Fridays until mid May. Rover allows me the flexibility to still take care of your furry loved ones during my down time from school! With in-home pet sitting, I like to make a visit prior to the scheduled service (although not required). This allows me to get a feel for the home and pet(s), and to sit down with owners and discuss needs and schedules for feeding, walking, etc.

Clients dogs I will do as told so the dogs are in the best care while with me.
