Pet Sitting Port Barrington

“We’ve been using Doug as a pet sitter for a while now, and we highly recommend him. Doug is not only reliable but also genuinely enthusiastic about caring for our cats. We never have to worry about anything when they’re in his care. He ensures they get plenty of attention, including playtime and cuddles, which helps keep them happy while we’re away. Our cats require daily medication, and Doug handles this with ease, showing he’s comfortable with more complex care needs. I highly recommend his services to anyone—your pets will be in excellent hands, and you’ll have peace of mind knowing they’re well cared for.”

“Megan was so wonderful in checking in on my dog Chewie! She sent lots of updates and pictures and he seemed very happy after she visited. I look forward to using her services again!”

“Dorothy was outstanding coming to our house to feed and let out our 2 dogs. She was great with the dogs, responds quickly to questions and sent many photos while we traveled out of state for a wedding. We trusted her and did not worry about our dogs. I would highly recommend her services.”

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a young girl. I have grown up with them and have had 10 dogs in my life. I typically stay over night or do drop-in visits. I have pet sit for neighbors, family, and many friends. I am not currently working. I am available for drop in visits after 10am. I am also available for overnight sitting on weekends or weekdays, with proper notice. I am not able to bring dogs to my home, unfortunately. I am always respectful of other’s privacy and do what is needed for the pet.

“Rachael was very communicative & patient. She helped to alleviate any anxieties I had while traveling away from my senior cat. She sent lots of photos & kept me in the loop about my cat’s behavior, eating patterns, and overall mood. 10/10 service, glad i already have her booked for my next vacation!”

“This was our first time having Jacob watch our dogs. I would highly recommend him. Communication is A+. Our older dog can be a bit bossy and he handled her just fine.”

Jennifer H.

“Becca was an excellent sitter — reliable, communicative, and great with our pup. I appreciated the updates and photos while we were away. Highly recommend and would absolutely book again!”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I currently have an elderly Jack Russell Terrier and a spunky Chocolate Lab, so I understand the unique needs of both senior dogs and energetic pups. I’m comfortable caring for puppies, adult dogs, and senior dogs, including administering medications, following feeding schedules, maintaining training routines, and providing individualized care based on each dog’s personality and needs. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or a slower pace, I’m happy to adapt to what makes them feel comfortable and happy. I have experience with quirky personalities and understand that every dog is different. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I treat every dog as if they were my own and believe in providing plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and consistency. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! I have a flexible work schedule, which allows me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs throughout the day and week. Whether your dog needs a midday walk, early morning care, evening check-ins, or weekend visits, I’m often able to adjust my schedule to provide the care they need. Every dog and family has different routines, so I’m happy to communicate with you to create a care plan that works best for both you and your pup. My goal is to provide dependable, consistent care while keeping your dog’s routine as normal and stress-free as possible. Feel free to reach out with your scheduling needs—I do my best to be flexible and accommodating whenever possible! 🐾 Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities. I understand that trusting someone with your furry family member is a big decision, and I take that responsibility seriously. I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise needs, and training preferences. I believe consistency helps pets feel secure and comfortable while their owners are away. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing how your pet is doing. Whether your dog is energetic, shy, senior, or still learning the ropes as a puppy, I strive to create a safe, positive, and loving environment tailored to their individual needs. I treat every pet in my care with the same attention, patience, and affection that I give my own dogs.

About: I’ve taken care of a variety of dogs since I was little and have loved every second. I was always helping out my family’s and neighbor’s pets - and now I finally got my own puppy in August of 2025. Trained him all on my own and he is the sweetest boy! I work at a kindergarten with special education during the school year. Once June hits, I will be officially out for summer break and plan on focusing all my attention on Rover. I will have all the time on my hands to drop in and take care of your pets! My 10 month old dachshund is very well taken care of. He is my pride and joy - always getting all the cuddles and exercise he needs. I believe that all pets require the same love and attention that humans do and I treat them with that idea in mind.

About: I grew up on a farm surrounded by puppies, kittens, and all kinds of animals. I was there when my first dog gave birth and helped raise the puppies, learning how to train them along the way. This past year, I’ve cared for my senior dog when she had trouble walking and caregiving. I’ve also had the pleasure of walking and caring for dogs of all sizes for several families. With my lifelong experience with dogs and cats, I know exactly how to make sure your pet gets the best care! I currently have two dogs of my own and absolutely love spending time with them!! They are my babies I am available for pet care during the evenings and early mornings, and I’m also available on weekends (Friday, Saturday, Sunday) for dog walks or weekend dog sitting. I take care of pets in a cozy, safe space. I make sure they get their walks, playtime, and plenty of love. I stick to their feeding schedule and keep things clean—making sure they have their favorite toys around and giving them the love and attention that they need! When I’m at your place, I follow your pet’s routine to keep things as normal as possible—feeding, walks, playtime, and bathroom breaks. I’ll also make sure the place stays clean and tidy, and your pet gets all the attention they need while you’re away!

About: I’ve been caring for animals throughout my whole life and using Rover since the middle of 2022. I don’t have any pets of my own and my home is quiet and peaceful. My genuine love for animals, experience with various breeds and special needs, beautifully fenced in yard by the water, and emphasis on love and patience collectively set me apart as a dog sitter who provides exceptional care and creates a loving environment for the dogs entrusted to me. Let’s set up a meet-and-greet so I can meet your pup and you can see how much fun we’ll have together! I like to start the day with a quick potty break followed by some playful yard time to get the wiggles out, then it’s straight to breakfast. During the day we’ll stroll around the neighborhood, and sniff out some new spots. By evening it’s all about winding down, cozy vibes, and a yummy dinner to wrap up a tail-wagging day! I care for pets by observing their behavior, exercise, play, walks, and snuggles. Please bring along any favorite toys, crate, blankets, or other comfort items they love.

“Angela is a real pro! She did drop-in visits for our dog while we were on vacation. She was always on-time and gave him plenty of attention! She provided updates and photos. I would book her again and recommend her to others!”

Lisa C.

“This was our first time using Rover and Heather went above and beyond our expectations! We looked forward to her updates nightly and absolutely loved the pictures. We were able to enjoy our vacation more fully knowing our little fur baby was in wonderful hands. We would you request Heather again in a heartbeat!”

Holly W.

“Couldn't be more happy with Masha. She's always on time and not afraid of my big girls.”

About: Hi! I’m Delaney and I hope to be your new pet sitter. I’ve been caring for cats, dogs, and other animals since I was young. I have volunteered at animal shelters, fostered kittens, and pet sat for friends/family. I have a disabled cat myself, so I’m used to providing specialized care. I grew up with pets that needed daily medication, so I feel confident in that skill as well. Looking forward to caring for your babies as if they were my own! I work part-time so I have plenty of free time to spend with your pets. I can drop in twice a day or more, depending on my schedule and what you’re looking for. Caring for your pets is a huge responsibility and I assure you that I will prioritize them as my own. You can trust that I will treat your pets as my own. I will spend as much time loving on them as they are comfortable with, but if they are shy or territorial to a stranger in their space, I will respect that too. I will keep everything tidy when it comes to your pet. Nobody wants to come home to a stinky house!

About: I love dogs of all shapes and sizes! I had two labs growing up and another lab in my early twenties who I still grieve for today. I currently have no dogs of my own so I pour all my love into my friend’s dogs. The dog I had my twenties had behavioral issues and required patience and understanding in a short amount of time he went from being withdrawn and antisocial to a complete love bug! I’m unemployed but I take care of my disabled mom. Because of this I have a very flexible schedule. I have always loved dogs and miss having one of my own. I’m always excited to spend time with my friend’s dogs. I don’t plan on boarding any dogs at my own home. With how my mom’s health is now it wouldn’t be a good idea to do so.

“Ally is always so great with my cats and even got my really shy cat to trust her very quickly. She is super communicative and trustworthy, and she makes me feel really safe leaving my cats in her care while I'm gone.”

Jacob S.

“Dayna is fantastic. My dogs really liked her. She was extremely flexible as my plans changed several times. She sent lots of pictures and let me know what was happening with my fur babies every step of the way. I will definitely trust my babies with her in the near future. Highly recommend her.”
