Noemi was an absolute pleasure to work with and I felt completely at ease trusting her with our cat, Dusty. She went above and beyond by sending regular photos and updates, and even brought in packages for us while we were away. Her care and communication gave me great peace of mind. I would highly recommend her to anyone in the Peoria area looking for a reliable and thoughtful pet sitter!

I am ecstatic with Mandy's help with my dog, Jesus. He is naturally timid and he has warmed up to her in less than a week, even after a cross country move. When I come home from work, I can tell that a responsible, caring person has paid him a visit because he is relaxed and happy. Mandy is very quick to respond and communicates very well. I would highly recommend Mandy and greatly appreciate her support!

This was my first time using Rover. I was very skeptical to be honest. Allie did great with both of my dogs. She showed up when she told me she would and she sent me pictures and notes which I appreciated very much.

About: I have had a dog all my life. Growing up we had Boxers. In my adult married life we have had Labrador Retrievers . These dogs have not been dogs but fur kids. I have taken them to obedience classes so I have experience in commands and working with them. I believe that fur kids need plenty of exercise on and off leashes. Dog parks are a good way to socialize them and get in exercise. In the home mind games are fun too. Sniffing out a treat to playing with toys on the floor with them. I love taking pictures and document what we do. You will know what your fur child is doing. I am currently working for home during the week day so being with them during the day works. I am able to take breaks and go on short walks. Play with them in our fenced in yard. I plan on retirement in May so I will be available 24/7, 365 days a year. I am willing to come into your home if you would feel more comfortable. If they come to my home we have a fenced in yard and will be able to play with our 2 fur boys. One is an 8 year old chocolate Labrador and the other is a 5 year old German Shepherd/Great Pyrenees. Both have had other dogs come into the home and stayed with us. They love having visitors. In your home I will attend to their needs as you have outlined.

Glenn took excellent care of my Dallas, who is a bit difficult, but he kept me updated and seemed to be happy to deal with her cranky personality. I will definitely book again.

I couldn't be happier with Serenity's care for my dog! She was attentive, reliable, and treated my pup like her own. It was clear she has a natural love for animals, and I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in her care. Serenity sent regular updates, which made the experience even better. I highly recommend her for anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter!

Angelique was great! This was our first time leaving our pets with someone who wasn't family or friends, so we were nervous, but she did an amazing job! She even got my super skiddish cat to come out of hiding 😊 I would definitely recommend using Angelique!

About: With over 10 years of hands-on pet care experience, I’ve had the joy of caring for my own pets as well as those of family and friends. I grew up in a pet-loving household, and animals have always been an important part of my life. My 7-year-old French Bulldog has faced her fair share of health challenges, and caring for her through countless medical issues has taught me patience, attentiveness, and how to handle special care needs with confidence and compassion. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or requires a little extra TLC, I’m fully prepared to provide the care and comfort they deserve. I treat every pet as if they were my own — with love, understanding, and respect. You can trust that your furry family member will be in safe, capable, and caring hands. I am working full-time in insurance. Outside of that, I am free in the afternoons and all weekends. I am open to stepping out of the office around lunchtime to walk your pet/s and after work. I have open availability through all weekends. I have three small dogs that we have raised from puppies. I keep them on a healthy routine with regular walks (and lots of play time and belly rubs of course). My French bulldog is unable to eat normal dog food due to her allergies. Therefore, I cook her meals with fresh ingredients lists provided by her skin specialist (yes, our dog has a dermatologist at the UofI)! I have a lot of experience pet sitting large dogs (a golden retriever and Australian shepherd) through my aunt.

Once again Linden was a great walker to stop by and check on my dog Brody while I was away. She sends a great photo and check in after every walk to let me know how things went which i really appreciate. Would continue to recommend her and I already plan to reach out to her for my next trip!

About: I am an animal lover! I have raised all types of animals - cats, dogs, goats, pig, horse, guinea pigs, snakes, and even a couple of free range indoor oppossums. I currently have two indoor cats (female, spayed) and a young male foster. We regularly have my daughter’s two young male cats over for week long play dates and everyone is great after the initial hisses and booty sniffs. I have multiple litter boxes that are cleaned daily and feed pets separately. I can also separate animals for the duration of their stay if preferred. Can’t wait to meet your four legged bff! I’m an active middle aged woman with grown kids and have plenty of time to care for your pet. If desired, dogs will get morning and afternoon walks during their stay. Cats will get daily brushing an and snuggles (if they want them, that is 😬). I have a fenced yard and three cats who are dog friendly. Dogs can be crated or free range - your preference! I’m flexible and want to make the “boarding” experience a vacation for your pet!

About: I have own 4 dog over the years. I had them from pups to senior. Most of the time they are in the back yard but they were given love and plenty of attention. With the lose of my last dog I have decided not to own any more but take care of a ferret instead. They are just as much of a hand full as a dog is but smaller then a dog. I do still like dogs but with how thing are own a new one would be heart breaking if I lose it so I have decided to help dog owners with the care of their dog and rover is the platform that help matching me with dog owners that are looking some I work flexible hours. I am available at night during the week to look after pet at the clients home. I will also care for pet on the weekends if needed I prefer to take care of pets in there home environment because that is what the pet is use to. A new environment will make the pet not want to open up to someone new

I was away from my babies for almost 2 weeks and was really nervous leaving them but was so reassured with Ivory!! She was so sweet and always went above and beyond with her communication and care! I always knew what was going on and always had plenty of pictures. I’ll definitely be using her again and would recommend her to anyone!

This was the first time we used a pet sitter that wasn't family. Our dogs loved Sheri from when they were introduced. We just got back from our overnight trip and I can tell they were very well taken care of. We will be using Sheri again! She was great!
