House Sitting in River Forest

“Abbey did a great job with my two dogs when I went on an overnight trip. She had great communication and sent me some cute pictures of them. I don’t often leave them with someone they don’t know, but Abbey was splendid and I would definitely book her again!”

“Fabulous experience! Jessica was absolutely great. This was my first time using Rover and I was a bit nervous, but Jessica was great with my dogs. I was in a pinch and she took this job last minute. I will definitely be requesting her for future dog care.”

“Zoe took great care of Libby during our seven day vacation. She was punctual, communicated and sent pictures with daily updates. She was sensitive to Libby's anxiety and was proactive in treating it. We would definitely recommend Zoe for your pet's needs.”

“Brownie needs more interaction with people on an ongoing basis without mom around. Kelly did the best she possibly could with a scared dog. Thank you for trying so hard and giving him his treats. Hopefully he will get there soon. Thanks Kelly for the updates and pictures.”

“Bralynn was amazing with our fur family. She treated them like family and they responded well to her. She stayed with them for the weekend and it was so nice knowing someone was with them. She was so great to us with our chaotic weekend changes also. Very flexible and helpful. The house looked the same as when we left. Thank you so much! Highly recommend and will definitely use again.”

About: I truly treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I have experience caring for both energetic puppies and gentle senior pets, and I’m always patient, calm, and attentive to their needs. Whether it’s playtime, a walk, or just some extra cuddles, I make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. I also pay close attention to routines and special instructions, so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands! I’ll be teaching during the day, but before and after school, pet care is my top priority. I always make time for morning and evening visits, walks, feedings, and cuddles. My schedule is consistent, and I’m committed to making sure your pets feel loved and cared for, even while you’re away. I care for pets in their own home, where they feel most comfortable and secure. I follow your routines closely—whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or medications—and always give lots of love and attention. I keep your home tidy and your pet happy, treating both with the utmost respect and care.

“Grace is always so great with our dog Ellie! I don’t have to worry about her knowing she’s in great hands! She always communicates timely and sends great pictures! We use her whenever we go out of town!”

About: I am capable and comfortable taking care of dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments! I’ve helped leash, house, and crate train a few dogs as well! I currently work part time and would love to fill my extra time with animals, so I have plenty of time to take care of pets with almost any needs! Though I’m not able to board your pet at my house I promise to provide quality care at your home and keep them safe and happy

“Absolutely awesome. She arrived at my house at the proper time to ensure the routine my dogs are used to was followed. She sent pictures during the stay and even coaxed my anti-social cat out. Will 100% book her again.”

“We love Alexis! She took such good care of our 7 year old dog. We rescued him and he has always been a little anxious. He immediately felt at ease with her! She took him on lots of walks and he got lots of pets and cuddles(his favorite). She stayed in our home and kept everything nice and tidy! We hope she is available to watch him again in the future!”

“Bella was GREAT with our pup! He can be a bit of a handful from time to time and she managed his weirdness extremely well. She left our home nice and tidy as well. Will definitely be asking her to watch George again!”

About: I have cared for pets for as long as I can remember. My own, families, neighbors or even teammates. Could’ve been something simple as feeding and walking them or even a bigger task, such as bathing them! School teacher here, so my week is usually held up until the afternoon; soon as that final bell rings, I'm all yours (well your dogs)! But my weekends are typically free! We have the sweetest golden to keep your dog company on our walks! She could even tag along with me during a drop in visits!

About: I have compassion for animals, especially those separated from their owners and take special care to make them feel loved. Ongoing attention is my specialty. I am currently home most of the time and have never liked leaving animals home alone. I like to walk as part of my daily routine if you have dogs. I have always been very attentive to pets I am caring for and go the extra mile to be sure they have what they like and need. Ex. I change the bird's water several times a day so it is cool!

“Iris did a wonderful job watching Lola! Lots of photos and video updates which helped me cope with being away ‘cause I knew she was in good hands.”

About: I worked at a humane society for 2 years and am still a volunteer. I have worked with many different types of dogs and cats, administered medications, dealt with emergent situations, etc. I am looking to add pet care in to my life part time, along with my full time job and my current volunteer hours at the shelter. With the services I will be providing, dog walking, check ins, and house sitting, I do not think that the animal will be at my house.

“Wonderful to work with!!! I will be rebooking with Elizabeth!”
