“Amanda and family treated our goldens like part of their family, giving them the comforts and cuddles of home during their stay. We also really appreciated the daily pictures and updates to give us peace of mind while away. We will definitely be repeat customers!!”

About: I’m a big animal lover who treats every pet like my own. I’m all about walks, playtime, belly rubs, kisses and plenty of cuddles — whatever makes your pet happiest. I’m comfortable with all personalities and energy levels, and I have hands-on experience caring for a dog with a seizure history, senior dogs with health issues, reactive dogs, blind and deaf dogs so I’m calm, attentive and great at following care instructions. I’m super affectionate, love building trust with pets and genuinely enjoy making them feel safe and happy. Don’t let the tattoos fool you — I’m a total softie who lives for puppy kisses and kitty cuddles! Please Note: Currently, I am unable to walk dogs on leash due to a spinal injury. I am still able to let them in fenced yard, feed, cuddle, & provide all other care. I work from home as a business owner and set my own schedule, which means pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. I’m available for walks, drop-ins and extended visits throughout the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow instructions closely, including feeding routines, medications, walking preferences and house rules. I keep a calm, clean and pet-friendly environment and always monitor pets closely during walks and visits. I’m careful about leashes, doors, gates, surroundings & other animals and I provide updates with photos so you feel comfortable and at ease while you’re away. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone and I take that responsibility seriously. I will always treat your pet as I want my pets to be treated — with extra love! Please ask about additional services I offer such as pet waste pickup, nail trims, pet bathing, pet taxi services, pet shopping, room cleaning, carpet spot cleaning, organizing tasks, furniture building, medication pickup and more! Have a busy schedule? I’m here to help!
“I wanted to leave a 5 ⭐️review and a BIG thank you to this wonderful family who watched my dog . I spent my whole trip getting to see my dog and follow her day through pics and videos. I actually found out my dog likes toys and activities that i did not know about. My dog was treated with love and patience and was so busy with exercise and activities, she was like a new dog when i got her home . I just cannot be more appreciative to this sitter for going above and beyond for my dog, who is my ❤️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ i would give 100 stars if i could . Thanks again for being so kind and attentive to my dog”

“This was the second time I booked with Christina and I was just as pleased this time, as I was the first time! She was kind enough to open up her home to my dog for 10 days while I was on vacation. She updated me with the perfect amount of pictures of my baby and he always looks happy to be there!”

About: Pet Care Experience I have hands-on experience caring for my own dog and understand the responsibilities involved in providing daily care. My duties included feeding and providing fresh water, taking my dog on regular walks for exercise, grooming, cleaning up after them, and ensuring they had a safe and comfortable environment. I also monitored my dog's health and behavior, administered medications when needed as directed, and provided plenty of attention, playtime, and affection to support their overall well-being. Through this experience, I developed patience, responsibility, and a strong understanding of the importance of consistent, compassionate pet care. Pet care is a regular part of my daily routine. I make time each day to feed my dog, provide fresh water, take them on walks, clean up after them, and spend time playing and interacting with them. I also make sure they receive any needed grooming and monitor their health and behavior to ensure they are happy and well cared for. Caring for my dog has helped me develop consistency, responsibility, and a strong commitment to meeting an animal's daily needs. When caring for pets in my home or a client's home, I follow the owner's instructions to ensure the pet stays on its normal routine. I provide fresh food and water, regular walks and exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention. I clean up after pets, keep their living areas clean, and monitor their behavior for any signs of illness or discomfort. If medications are required, I administer them according to the owner's directions. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment while treating every pet with patience, kindness, and care.

“Ana is the BEST. She accepted to take care of Jack on short notice. From the moment we arrived at her home I felt at ease and welcomed. Her attention to detail is amazing (I guess the engineer in her). I had mentioned how Jack loves walks so she made sure she walked him and gave him all the time he needed to sniff. I am very happy we found Ana and Jack looks forward to spending time with her soon.”

“Christian was amazing! My dog loved him and I could tell from all the pictures and videos he sent that my dog was really calm, relaxed and felt safe with him. Christian was an angel and so patient with my baby when he unexpectedly got sick while I was away. He regularly updated me with how he was doing and accommodated his needs. I will definitely book with Christian again!”

“I couldn't be happier with my choice to pick Candy and Charlie to watch my dogs Stu. My dog Stu spent four nights with Candy and Charlie and they sent pictures and answered every question I had for them. I know they spoiled him as much as I spoil him at home and that was important to me. I will definitely use them again.”

“Daniele is awesome. She is super reliable. I like how she sends pictures and text messages of our dogs playing or getting a belly rub enabled us to relax and enjoy our trip. We could see they were in good hands. She is a caring and competent professional. We highly recommend her.”

“We were very happy with the care our dog Chevy received. While we were away, Linda and Gordon would send us messages about how Chevy was doing and we could tell that he was getting lots of love and attention. We definitely will use their dog sitting services in the future and we highly recommend them:)”

“Kristen was very responsive and thorough with her questioning of Zuko's preferences and needs. She followed up once a day as we agreed and it seemed like my doggo enjoyed his time there.”

“I highly recommend Kim. From the meet and greet, we knew Leila, our 12 year old Havanese, will be happy and safe. Kim and her kids are pet lovers. The moment we parked our car, and as soon as her kids saw Leila, they hugged and played with her, so adorable. Kim would send photos every few hours, which I appreciate. Kim lives in a safe and quiet community in Darien, she also has a decent size backyard where Leila can play. Kim also texts me for any updates. Leila loves the attention! Thanks Kim :)”

About: If you need someone to spoil your pets with love and attention while you are away, call me to watch your animals today! Hi my name is Victoria and I am a HUGE animal lover. I am responsible, respectful, and reliable. I can provide as many updates as needed while you are away! And I promise to care for your pets as if they are my own! The animals I have experience with include: DOGS (any size), cats, rabbits, hamsters, rats, guinea pigs, turtles and fish. I have experience with injured, ill, and special needs animals as well. **I am also open to and interested in learning how to care for other pets as well! ** My pet care experience includes: feeding of pets, dispensing of medication when needed, bathroom breaks when needed, cage / litter box cleaning. Cleaning up accidents around the house. Over-night care. Dog walks or runs of any length. Playing fetch or playing with toys with your precious pets. Dog park visits. Dog bathing and / or brushing. Basic command training. Potty training. Lots of attention. And even animal photography! Thanks for reading. I hope to hear from you soon! I currently work part-time, about 12–16 hours per week in 4-hour shifts, which gives me plenty of time and flexibility to give your pups lots of love, attention, playtime, and care! Since my shifts are short, I’m never away for long periods of time and can easily work pet care into my daily routine. I’m also available for boarding throughout the week and on weekends! I live in a clean, cozy townhome in a quiet area with a small private yard surrounded by plenty of bushes for privacy. I have a 25-foot secured lead and ground stake so pups can safely enjoy some fresh air, sniff around, and spend time outside. I truly treat every pup I watch like they’re my own and want my home to feel like their home away from home. Dogs are welcome to cuddle up on the furniture and even sleep in my bed at night if that’s what they’re used to! If your pup is crate trained or you prefer certain boundaries at home, I’m more than happy to follow their normal routine and your rules. I know every dog has their own personality, comfort level, and needs, so I’m happy to adjust to what makes them feel safest and most comfortable. Whether they want lots of attention and cuddles or need a little extra space to settle in, I’ll let them go at their own pace. ❤️
“Tami was friendly and professional. We felt very comfortable after meeting with her, her family and her dogs. She was very sweet to our golden retriever and attentive. She maintained regular connections with little messages and photos each day. Would love to use her again for a future stay.”


About: Hi! We’re a couple who genuinely love dogs. We’ve also spent plenty of time looking after our family members’ pets, so we know how much they become part of the family.

We’re excited to meet some new furry friends, whether that means going for walks, playing, giving lots of belly rubs, or just keeping them company. 🐶❤️ We both work full-time in a hospital, so our schedules vary, but we’re upfront about our availability and only accept bookings we can commit to. We’ll follow your pet’s routine, give them plenty of love and attention, and keep you updated with photos while you’re away. 🐾❤️ Your pet’s safety and comfort come first!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Plainfield
She was wonderful. Our older dog can be anxious and standoff but seemed comfortable and happy in her care. I wouldn’t hesitate to book again if I had to. Communication was clear and responsive. I feel it was much better than using a kennel as my dogs were abused at one.

Clarissa did an outstanding job caring for our 4-year-old Boxer, Tyson, for an entire week while we were away. She kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us great peace of mind knowing he was happy, safe, and getting plenty of attention. It was obvious from the updates that Tyson was having a great time with walks, outdoor play, and lots of love. When she dropped him off tonight, he came home happy, healthy, and relaxed—a true sign that he was well cared for. Clarissa is kind, reliable, professional, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. We are incredibly grateful for the care she provided and would not hesitate to book with her again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their furry family member. Thank you again, Clarissa, for taking such wonderful care of Tyson! ❤️
