“Hire her!!!!!!! Mia took amazing care of Wally while we were away on a weeklong vacation. He can get pretty anxious and homesick, but he settled in with Mia right away. He was eating his meals and playing with her adorable dog Bentley in no time. We miss him dearly when we’re away and she sent tons of photos and videos so we could see what a good time he was having. The backyard was great fun for him. 10/10 would recommend working with Mia ❤️”

“Lilliana is a pro! She anticipated every need for our pup. I really appreciate her expertise and communication while she cared for our dog. Our silver lab is nervous and Lily knew exactly how to make Daphne feel at home. I absolutely will hire her again! Thank you!”

“Great relief, knowing my dog Barbie was in great hands for two weeks. Latasha would also send updates and pictures which really was really comforting to know Barbie was being well took care of. Would highly recommend Latasha to family and friends.”

“Janet is phenomenal! The MOST caring and kind dog mom and sitter! She is very patient with my 7 month puppy while he is developing his manners. She provides a lovely home and environment for my pup, who runs to the door whenever he is going to stay with Janet. She is simply the best!”

About: I bring 7+ years of pet care experience, including working in a daycare setting where I cared for multiple dogs at once. I focus on safety, structure, fun playtime, and personalized attention to every during alone time. Making sure they feel comfortable, confident, and excited to see me. I am currently completing an externship for school, which takes place earlier in the day. I have open availability after 2pm on weekdays and flexible availability on weekends, making it easy to accommodate walks, drop-ins, and extended care as needed. I prioritize safety, comfort, and routine whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s home. I closely follow feeding schedules, leash guidelines, and any special instructions provided. I maintain clean spaces, supervise all interactions, and communicate updates regularly so pet parents feel confident and at ease.

“Duane watched our Pomeranian in his home for 4 days while we were out of town. I love my fur baby and am very particular about who takes care of her. Duane is such a kind person and listened to all the details about caring for my little diva. She took to him straight away which she rarely does with anyone so that made me feel comfortable. Duane took her for walks and gave her all the attention that she loves. He reached out to us daily to let us know how she was doing. He even offered video chats! I highly recommend Duane to anyone who is looking for loving care for their dog. We plan to use him in the future when going out of town as well as when we need a sitter for even just a few hours.”

“Best Doggy sitter ever! This is my puppy's 2nd home. Thank you Candace and Francesca for making Sunny feel at home, every time she's with you. She's always so happy to see you.”

“Dwight is professional, kind and great with my Cannoli! Cannoli really enjoys him and you can tell that Dwight enjoys caring for animals. It’s relieving to know that my furry friend is being cared for when I am away. Thank you for everything. ❤️”

“Ra'eesa took great care of my dog. She provided photos, videos and updates of him enjoying walks and the dog park. I am so glad we found her on rover and plan to become a repeat client.”

Lataesha A.

“My Gizelle walked right into Victoria's place inspecting every corner before Victoria could give her a proper greeting! Gizelle was very comfortable and tool to Victoria who sent photos throughout the days I was gone. Somehow Victoria got Gizelle to use a pee pad and play with a toy. Things she never does at home. I am grateful for Victoria's care. Thank you!”

About: Hi guys! Owner of "I Hope My Cat Doesn't Get Jealous " LLC I have own several pets; throughout the years. One of the best feelings as a pet owner/sitter is knowing you are making a difference in that pet's day. Just to see them all happy,relaxed or just fed; gives me a humble satisfaction. I will be there every step of the way for your pets' needs; making sure your pet likes me and is comfortable with me.But don't take my word for it, you will see it through your pets behavior towards me. I have 4 cats that are dog friendly. They really love playing with small dogs. Finally, hope you and your pet(s) have a very bless day. I'm a full time pet sitter, I do walks during the day and house sitting or boarding afterwards. I try my best to fit your fur baby into my schedule. Meet & greets are mandatory for me. That way you can see and decide more throughly if I'm the right pet sitter for you and if your fur baby is comfortable with me.

“When we meet Tanisha I knew she was special. Her interview was thorough and professional. Her credentials were obvious. I was only looking for an occassional sitter, and someone i could board Charley with during my vacation. The next couple of months proved that i had made the best decision ever in selecting Tanisha. We have had consistent daycare since January 2017 and i was so at ease boarding Charley for my 6 day vacation in April. I could not have found a more caring and competent person to care for my Charley. She is so committed to quality care. She provides frequent communications including pictures to keep you at ease with the stay. She notices things about Charley's behavior that I may have been curious about and offers training solutions. We will be with Tanisha as long as she will have us. Since Charley and Zuri are now bffs she can never get rid of us. ”

About: I’ve grown up around big and small dogs all my life! I have fostered dogs with PAWS Chicago in the past, including puppies (2 week old) and dogs with specific medical needs. Since I work part-time, I have plenty of time in the day to go on long walks, play in the park, work on tricks and, of course, cuddle on the couch. Any change in routine can be stressful to handle, so when dog and housesitting, I stick as closely as possible to the dog’s schedule (walks, meal times etc.), to keep them calm and comfortable.

“Alex was amazing! She sent lots of cute photos throughout the stay and made me feel very comfortable leaving my dog with her. I’d highly recommend her to anyone!!”

About: I am a Mother of 4 grown daughters! I am a single woman and I love animals and the love they bring to my life. I had all kinds of pets as a child and in my married household we had a loving and sweet Shih Tzu that was like another daughter to me. I regularly dog sit my 2 Grandoodles Hazel and Daisy and my other daughter has a husky/shepard mix named Charlie. I live alone and have so much time to devote to your pet! I am very patient... (even with the most stubborn of pets) I am available with much flexibility weekly and weekends. Please consider me as your next house/dog sitter! Your pet/home are absolutely my very first priority when house/pet sitting. I’ll keep your pet/pets safe and loved throughout our time together. Nothing is more important. Absolutely nothing comes before watching your pets! I do prefer to watch your pet/pets in their own environment as they are most comfortable in their own homes. I will sleep with your pet if that’s their routine! I follow all the instructions given to me by the pets owner and I take tons of pictures !

About: Every pet has feelings, a unique personality, and a need to feel loved. I believe pet sitting is more than just feeding and watching animals. It’s about making sure your furry friend feels safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I’ll treat your pet with patience, kindness, and attention, taking the time to understand their needs and make them feel at home. Your pet deserves more than a sitter. They deserve someone who truly cares. I work from home full-time, allowing me to provide consistent supervision, attention, and care throughout the day. My flexible schedule allows me to accommodate each pet’s individual needs, including feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship. I strive to maintain your pet’s usual routine while ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I provide pet care exclusively in my own home, which has a fenced-in yard where pets can enjoy outdoor time under supervision. I also have a friendly small dog, and I understand that meeting a new dog can take time. I’ll make introductions slowly and patiently, always prioritizing each pet’s comfort and keeping a close eye on their interactions. I want every pet to feel safe, relaxed, and welcome. My goal is to provide a clean, loving environment where your furry friend can enjoy a true home away from home while you’re away.
