“Caitlin was phenomenal. My little dog has a complicated food and medicine regimen. She cannot walk. What was also really great is that Prin, who loves attention, got a lot of it. She and the cat bonded quickly. Caitlin's children loved Prin, and showered her with love. I asked Caitlin if she would give Prin a bath, and she did. Prin has a sore on her leg, and Caitlin did a wonderful job of keeping it clean. I highly recommend Caitlin.”
“Mirriam and Terrell were the best rovers we’ve ever had! We received plenty of updates, pictures, and videos of our dog being spoiled, playing, and sleeping! They were also kind enough to watch our dog last minute with no issues while we went on a camping trip. We felt very relieved and safe that our pet was in good hands. We highly recommend them!!!”
“What a wonderful time my Sasha had with Dominic! Would recommend him to ANY dog owner! I felt safe as my girl was attended to, walked, cuddled and kept in a safe fenced in yard! Going to bring my girl back again for our next trip!”
“We loved Tonja and her family. Leaving our dog, Moe with them was so easy and I had absolutely no worries the whole time gone on vacation. Moe became part of their family from sun bathing and swimming to sleeping! Pictures and communication from Tonja was amazing. Moe Loved the family and so do we. Thank you so much for taking such good care of Moe. We will definitely be back!!!”
About: I have been pet sitting for neighbors since I was a child and am a major animal lover. I live in Yorkville with a large fenced in backyard and plenty of love to share with your fur babies. I currently work from home around my own schedule and can be available anytime to care for your pets. I am also available to pick up and/or drop off if needed. I have a large fenced in yard and 3 friendly pups of my own to keep your furry friends company. I also have plenty of space to keep them separated if needed, including a separate fenced in area.
“Mera did an amazing job taking care of our nervous and anxious dog. She did her best to comfort her on the days she was caring for her. I would definitely recommend her services!”
“I honestly can’t thank Kathleen enough for watching my baby! She sent pictures and videos throughout the weekend. I know my boy was loved. He played all weekend and was absolutely worn out after playing in Kathleen’s backyard all weekend. Aside from taking such great care of my boy, she was super flexible and understanding of my schedule. My plans had changed last minute and she ended up taking him a second night. We also got into town a little later than I thought and she was kind the entire time! Kathleen thank you so so much for making my weekend stress free and taking such amazing care of my fur baby!”
“Kimberly was WONDERFUL! She was so sweet to our dogs, sent us communication throughout the stay and was just a very kind person. Max and Muffin had a wonderful time and we will definitely be using her services again. Just a note, our dog Muffin is 17, blind and going deaf and she took wonderful care of her. Her family also loved on our dogs which was so comforting to know as well. Thank you so much!!!”
“Susan was absolutely wonderful with our girls. When a health issue arose with one of them, she handled it like a pro and kept in close contact to assure we knew how she was doing. She was very easy to work with and went above and beyond to accommodate some unexpected changes. We would definitely trust her with our girls again and recommend her wholeheartedly.”
“We loved having Barbara watch our 5 month old puppy, Hannah. You could really, really tell she cared for her (and all her pets!). She sent updates and funny stories, Hannah ate, played and slept well, and Barbara made sure she was safe and loved. We would highly recommend having Barbara and her family watch your pup any time!”
“It was our first time using Rover, and Norma & Kane made it a great one! They took care of my baby on a last minute notice and sent me photos and updates everyday. My baby was sad leaving his new found friends when I picked him up. Definitely gained my trust and will be my go-to people for my Blue every time we need the help :)”
“Phenomenal Experience with Michele G.! Michele went above and beyond to make sure she had everything in place for a smooth, happy weekend with our fur baby. From the moment we arrived, we could tell she was a genuinely kind and caring person—Skye immediately warmed up to her, tail wagging and full of excitement. Throughout our trip, Michele was always available for quick, friendly communication, which gave us great peace of mind. When we returned, Skye greeted us in high spirits, clearly having enjoyed her time. We’re so grateful for Michele’s attentiveness and warmth, and we will absolutely be rebooking with her in the future. Highly recommend!”
“My dog Rylee had a great two nights with Tracy. Loves having other dogs to play with. She also loves the home environment much better than a boarding facility. Tracy will be my first choice anytime I need boarding for my pup.”
About: I love interacting with pets and getting to know their personalities! I'm getting over the loss of my dog, and taking care of your fur baby will give me the love I'm missing from mine. I'm currently working in management full-time, I have flexibility to take half days and can be available M-F 3pm-8pm. I'm free almost every weekend 5am-7pm or overnight boarding in my home. I have a zip line to tether to if needed, my yard is not fenced in. I live in a quiet neighborhood with very little traffic; it's a dead end street. I'm happy to crate your pet if needed. I am willing to explore local dog parks if permitted. I also enjoy longer walks if your pup is up for it! I can let your pet out for potty breaks several times a day and provide play time, too. I'm happy to follow any specific training protocols you are working through for consistency!
About: I’ve always loved taking care of dogs or any sort of animal. If my closed one’s ever needed someone reliable and trustworthy to watch their dogs they always call me first! I’m currently not working or going to school at the moment so whenever you need a sitter i’ll always be there to make sure your dogs get a sitter! I’m very passionate about dogs so i always make sure they are getting full attention at all times and getting the proper care they need!
