Kimberly was absolutely amazing to our babies- we booked drop-ins with our 2 kitties and they adore her! She even offered to go check on them outside of our scheduled visits during the icy weather. She’s kept in contact the whole time and send the best picture and updates. We highly recommend Kimberly and will definitely continue to her for our fur babies! THANK YOU Kimberly :)

Heather is such a wonderful cat sitter! This was our second time having her do drop in visits for our 3 cats. She does a great job communicating and we love the pictures she sends. Our cats are happy and aren't anxious at all when we come home. We highly recommend her and will continue to use her services! Thank you, Heather!

I was really nervous leaving my 9 month month old kitty and 18 year old cat at home for 5 days while i was gone, but Rachel was such a wonderful sitter, and provided me with wonderful photos and thoughtful, detailed updates while i was gone that really put my mind at ease knowing they were in such good hands. Rachel really went above and beyond to make sure my cats were well taken care of, played with and happy. She even brought a few toys and treats for them to play with! And my 18 year old cat needed a topical medicine in her ear each day, which Rachel applied to her no problem… meaning my cat really trusts her. I almost think my cats were a little disappointed to see me instead of Rachel opening the door when i got home yesterday haha! Thanks so much Rachel - we will absolutely be in touch the next time we need a sitter!! I highly recommend her :)

About: I’ve taking care of animals, specifically dogs and cats since I was about 10 years old. Whether that’s taking them for walks, feeding them, taking them to the groomer or vet or just spending time with them. I’ve dealt with animals with anxiety as well as animals that don’t get along with others. I have also pet sat for multiple friends and family’s and always treated their pets like my own. I’m currently unemployed so I will have more than enough time to care for your pets. Whether that is just letting your dog out or pet sitting for a few days, I’m there. I have two dogs of my own who are spoiled and loved beyond words. They are walked regularly and fed fresh food. They get more than enough cuddles and they are great protectors. I will be sure to spoil your fur babies too.

Kaitlyn was great! Gave all of my animals lots of love. Sent lots of pictures and conversed via text with updates. I have one pup that is skittish and a little extra work and Kaitlyn was patient with her and went above and beyond to gain her trust and progress was made in just a few visits. Really happy that I came across Kaitlyn on Rover and will absolutely be reaching out to her in the future. The consistency is great for all my fur babies but especially the one that is weary with new people. Thanks for loving on my animals! Clearly an animal lover <3

A first rate job taking care of my elderly cat. She was fed exactly on schedule and her dietary considerations were met as directed. My pet was played with, cuddled and visited by a conscientious and kind caretaker who I felt confident was respectful of my property. Chris is a treasure.

Declan clearly dedicates his time making sure our dog is mentally and physically engaged during his visits, which is not an easy feat with an energized 6mo lab! We are very grateful to have an enthusiastic and experienced handler like Declan around.

CHRIS did a great job even when one of the dogs decided that he wanted to run the house and not go on walks. Quickly, switch gears and made sure that all the animals were safe and still tried to make friends with Luke. And in the end, CHRIS did make friends with him so I believe we’ve got the start of a beautiful relationship. Thanks Chris and happy new year

About: ’ve grown up with both cats and dogs and have always had animals in my life. I currently have two cats of my own and foster whenever I’m able, so I’m very comfortable with a wide range of personalities and needs. I also have hands-on experience caring for senior cats, including administering medication and supporting their daily routines. Whether your pet is playful, shy, or needs a little extra attention, I’m patient, reliable, and happy to provide care that keeps them feeling safe and loved. I work from home, which gives me plenty of flexibility for morning, lunchtime, or evening drop-ins and walks during the week. Weekends are also very open, so I can usually accommodate whatever your pet needs. Safety is always a priority. I keep a calm, clean environment and pay close attention to doors, gates, and routines. My home has a fenced in backyard. In clients’ homes, I follow instructions carefully and make sure pets stay secure, comfortable, and supervised during every visit.

About: I've been taking care of my own animals since I was 9 and have watched my neighbors and other family dogs ever since, I spend lots of time with the dogs while still working my own job. I love getting to know the dogs! I currently work a part time jobs but will be able to manage my job with playing with your pets and spending time with them while you're away! I care for clients pets by allowing for them to have time to run around, swim (if they like water), and by taking them on nice adventure walks! I also give the pets lots of attention when I'm there!

About: As an experienced and devoted pet sitter, I take great pride in the unique qualities that set me apart from other sitters. My passion for animals and dedication to their well-being drive me to go above and beyond in providing exceptional care for your furry companions. I prioritize open communication with pet owners, ensuring that they are kept informed about their pets' well-being during their absence. Regular updates, photos, and messages will be shared, so you can have peace of mind knowing your beloved pets are in safe hands. I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to focus on your pet’s care. I’m able to accommodate multiple walks throughout the day, including scenic strolls through my neighborhood forest preserve. Whether it’s potty breaks, exercise, or just extra outdoor time, I love making sure pets get the attention, movement, and fresh air they need. When caring for pets in the client's home, I am committed to maintaining the same level of attention and love they would receive in their owner's presence. I follow the pet's routine as closely as possible, adhering to their feeding schedules, exercise needs, and any other specific requirements provided by the owner. During walks, I ensure that dogs are safely harnessed and on-leash at all times, while also being attentive to their surroundings and any potential triggers or stressors. I use positive reinforcement techniques during walks to encourage good behavior and reinforce basic commands. I make it a priority to spend quality time with each pet, showering them with affection and engaging them in playtime to ensure they remain mentally stimulated and emotionally content. Communication with pet owners is vital, and I provide regular updates, including photos and messages, to keep them informed about their pets' well-being and any notable experiences during my care.

Haley and Alex were fantastic! Super reliable and responsive, and they were also incredibly friendly. Our dog is a husky and pitbill mix who gets bad separation anxiety and is also high strung around new people. He warmed up to Haley and Alex right away, and they were well equipped to deal with a more high strung dog. Highly recommend them!
