“Great experience with Ethel. We came in from out of town to watch a Red Stars game and she took care of our bernedoodle, Frankie. Ethel’s place is a very short way from SeatGeek Stadium and Frankie came back to us happy.”
About: Drop-off for overnight is at 5 PM or later. If you need to come earlier that day, add day care for that day. Pick-up for overnight is at 10 AM or earlier. If you need to come later that day, add day care for that day. Potty Trained Only!! You will be charged $20 for EVERY "accident" inside our home. Sorry to make this addition but we had too many people representing their dogs as "potty trained' only to clean up after them several times a day. For your peace of mind: 1. We only take one dog at the time. (unless related and requested by owner) 2. No kennels or crates in our house. Dogs have full house and backyard access at all times. 3. Only take dogs up to 25 lbs. Work from home family with kids in school during the day. Everyone loves the animals. 24 hours a day dog supervision. Do not own any pets, only annual membership to Brookfield zoo. 20x25 yards Fenced backyard. Work from home family with kids in school during the day.

“Mercedes is incredible with our puppy Ellie! I could not recommend a better sitter! She keeps us updated and sends pictures as much as possible! Ellie has come back very happy both times that Mercedes had her! I cannot wait to continue working with Mercedes!”
About: Animals are freakin awesome and I love them! I've had snails, a bird, frogs, co-owned cats (one at a time), as well as cat sit. I grew up with a dog, and spent 15+years with my beloved baby Shiba Inu Kenji. He had one eye, lots of arthritis, kidney issues, and half his teeth in the end but was full of life! Very familiar with meds and schedules and special needs, natural food etc. Not ready for another and didn't know much about this service. I wish l'd have known, so let me help YOU! (Note- i cannot take dogs over 60lbs, check box options are limited. Thanks for understanding) I work from home so can be available for full days, or as needed. Weekends I may have some things to do but will prioritize where needed. I do not have a crate, but you can provide. Otherwise I have bowls and beds and cones of shame as well as soft flower cone where needed. I also have gates and a pen, and multiple doors. I treat my animals (mine or family friends) like a kid. Safety always, lots of love, and a fun time!
“Barb is very nice person!! She watched my dog last minute and was awesome! He seemed to have a good time at her house playing with her pups. She sent over pics and videos thru the day. When he left she even gave him a gift with a toy inside which was extremely thoughtful of her. We will definitely be using her again.”
“Amy was absolutely wonderful with my puppy, Bambi! She was extremely flexible with my schedule, had excellent communication throughout the day, and made me feel completely at ease while I was at work. It means so much to know my fur baby was in such caring hands. Thank you so much, Amy, for taking such great care of Bambi. I will definitely be using you again!”
“Susseth was very accommodating and gave constant updates and made sure my youngest dog felt comfortable in her home as he’s somewhat timid. Would definitely you Susseth again. Highly recommend .”

About: I love dogs. I have had one Doberman, one mutt who was the best, and two English Mastiffs. I had a dog everyday of my life until five years ago when my 200 pound English Mastiff named Max died. It broke my heart and hasn't felt right to replace him. But I love dogs and cherish watching the relationship people have with their dogs. I say hi to every pooch on the street that I pass. Rest assured, your dog will be treated with the utmost friendliness and care imaginable. I work from home so your dog will always have a friendly companion around. A side note. No Pit Bulls, No Rottweilers, No Stafford Terriers, No Husky of any sort, and No Doodles of any sort. I'm sure if any of these five dogs are part of your family that you are a wonderful person and so is your dog. However, they are far from my cup of tea. I work from home. I'm home basically all the time. And other than that, I just work on landscaping my front and back yards. I have a fenced in yard. Your pet is in great hands. I work from home.

“We are so grateful to Emily for the excellent care she provided our pup. Every morning he was excited to see her, and every night he came back tuckered out, but in great spirits. Her updates and pictures throughout the day gave peace of mind that he was in great hands. Will absolutely be booking her for all future sitter needs!!”
“Jason is amazing! Our pup Lucy is very shy around both people and dogs and Jason has provided the perfect combination of comfort and fun for her to come out of her shell more. His dog Ava is playful, sweet and well trained. Jason communicates well and sends pictures/videos throughout the day. Highly recommend Jason! Your dog will be happy and well cared for.”
“Melanie was great. We had Zoey for one week, and Melanie took great care of her, making sure that she adjusted very well. We will definitely use her service again. We had no problems with communicating, she sent picture updates, and we trusted her with our little puppy.”
About: I've lived with dogs all my life and raise a few by myself from puppies. I'm all about safety and mutual respect. I hope I can be a friend and even a teacher for your pups. I find dogs are more easily trained once they've had adequate exercise. I'm happy to take your guy or girl for a long walk, to the dog park, or even to the dog beach. Also, if you're going out of town or just need a quiet night, I'm happy to watch over your loved one as if they were my own. I'll make sure they feel comfortable and well taken care of. I'm happy to host at my apartment or at yours. Let's connect and see if it's a good fit. Thanks!
“Amazing care for my Butters. I was completely comfortable leaving him in Danny’s care. Daily pictures and a lot of space for Butters to run around. Will be coming back to Danny for future service! 5/5 Recommended!”
About: I have walked and taken care of mine and several of the dogs in my neighborhood for several years now and have experience with most breeds. I work with a flexible schedule and am especially free those cold months you don’t want to go outside. I am also for longer periods of of care for vacations and whatnot. I myself have a very friendly labradoodle and there’s plenty of space for them to run or walk on leash. I live near miles and miles of walking trails.
About: I’ve had a dog in our lives for the past 12 years who passed away a couple months ago. We rescued 3 kittens in 2021. Jack is our oldest cat and he is quite a character. Luz is our middle cat and she is the sweetest little thing to look at/she loves to talk. Baby is our not so little baby and is such a friendly loving cat. I’m currently working 80% remote from home during the week and available on the weekends. Having my cats at home have kept me company and make the day go by faster. My cats have free range of our home and no restrictions. They have their favorite spots to nap during the day which is our bathroom, under my teenagers beds and on my bed while I work. We have snack and play time but mostly love to lounge during the day. We’re looking to add some additional character in our environment. Our home will be your pets second home.

Palos Park dog parents share their Rover experiences
I recently hired Natalie to do doggy day care and she was fantastic with my dog Bruce! He is a Chow Chow and is very fearful with new people and she was so patient and loving with him. She agreed to a meet and greet ahead of time to make sure my dog was comfortable and she spent an entire hour with him giving him time to warm up to her. During his stay, she also sent me multiple updates with photos and videos which I greatly appreciated. I will definitely use Natalie again in the future.
