Pet Sitting in Rockford

“Erika was great! It was so comforting to know our dog was left in good hands. She was prompt to all visits, left great notes and took great photos!”

“Sarah is nice and cares well for my dogs! They so happy when I get home.”

“Amy is amazing! It’s always nerve racking leaving your babies but when you have someone as awesome as Amy all your worries disappear! Updates, pictures, seeing them running around and playing, so wonderful. I am forever grateful ♥️”

“Above and beyond is an understatement for how well Kelsey cared for my cats and my home while I was away. She was patient with them, adapted to their needs/personalities, and sent regular updates assuring me that they were doing well. I felt so much more relaxed when I was away knowing they were in her care. I’ll absolutely be booking her again, you couldn’t ask for a better, more trustworthy and caring person to watch your pets!”

“Bella has been a great help by dropping in and giving my dog, Nilla, a potty break during the day! She gives me awesome updates and I don’t have to worry about any accidents while I’m at work. I know Nilla appreciates hanging out with Bella and getting some social time in! This has been my first time using Rover and I’m appreciative to have found someone as sweet and reliable as Bella.”

About: I have been a dog, cat, and rabbit parent for most of my life and I love animals. My beloved cat recently died and I am missing the love of a pet but I’m not ready to get another one at this time. I will take very good care of your fur baby. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, cats, and rabbits. I work 9-5 but can walk a dog during the day and my nights and weekends are mostly free to care for your pet. Any dog or cat is welcome! I have a two-level townhome with a balcony for outside enjoyment. I live in a semi-rural area so walks will include lots of trees and green areas.

“Ashley is a responsible and loving pet caregiver! She loves all animals and there was an instant bond with my two dogs. 10/10 recommend for your all animal needs!”

About: I grew up with a dog, cat, and every small animal you can think of. I’ve lived alone with my two cats for the last several years, and I pet-sit for many of my friends. I’m working from home full-time, but with the ability to step away often for short periods, or over lunch. Available early mornings & after work most weekdays, and available some weekends. I’m used to being anxious about my own cats escaping, or getting into trouble, so I’ll be sure to prep for every scenario for your pet as well! I have a pet-proofed bedroom dedicated solely to your pet if I ever need to leave my house for a short period.

“Dan did a great job taking care of Lola and Beans! It’s so convenient to take a day trip and know the dogs will be taken care of while we’re gone. We are already signed up for another visit!”

“Taylor was great with my Blue boy! He has some special dietary and medical needs and I was worried about leaving him for so long, but Taylor took great care of him while we were away. Would definitely recommend her to any kitty owners!”

“Laura was amazing with Loki! Loki is very shy and wary of strangers, especially since her big 120 LB ‘sister’ (really mama bear) crossed over the rainbow bridge a few weeks ago. But Laura was able to get her to warm up to her, and took wonderful care of her while we were away. We will absolutely have Laura as our ‘go to’ for all of our pet sitting needs!”

“Ruby loves Chrissy to stop by and play!”

“Jessica is wonderful! She has done several drop-ins for our dog, and we always feel reassured she is in good hands when we are gonel! She is very thorough, detail-oriented, fun-loving, and a great communicator. We will absolutely continue to use her to watch our pup in the future.”

“Lisa Harvey is the kindest soul that I know!! Her love of animals is amazing thing to see. Her cats and dog are well cared for doted on like family!! Cannot recommend her enough to watch your pets.”

“Corin was very responsive throughout her visits and provided a lot of details. She took great care of our older dog while we had to be away!”

About: I have 2 dogs. Remi and Zeno. They are very friendly and large. I walk them about 6 times a day and I work full time from home. I have a large dog play room in my basement to keep them cool during hot days and mostly let them roam the house. Looking for 1 or 2 dogs at most to help you out during the day or overnight. ✌️ I work from home so I walk my dogs several times a day and they mostly hang out with me when I'm not on a meeting. We chill on my screen porch most of the day. Walking them about 6 times a day, taking them to Lake Sarah dog park, just letting them hang out around the house with me and lots of attention

About: I frequently watch my family members dogs. I take the neighbors dogs for walks all the time. I’ve cared for dogs of all different sizes, cats too! My pets get fed twice a day. My dog gets a walk or plays ball at least once per day. My dog also goes to the park frequently to go to the beach, followed by a shower. I always keep a close eye on what ever pet im watching and am aware of other dogs in the area. I also stay aware of weather or not other animals seem friendly or not and will use that to gauge weather the pet im watching is ok to interact. If you are looking to go through me individually and not through Rover, you can send me a message on here and I’ll send you my phone number and we can contact that way. The both of us can avoid fees this way too!

“Rachel was great with our dogs! She is easy to communicate with and was very flexible with us when we had last minute changes to our schedule. Thank you, Rachel!”

About: I have had a dog for most of my life. My family recently got a puppy, and he is a joy. I have volunteered at the shelter, taken care of family/friends pets and have worked in a daycare for dogs. They relied on me to feed, water, and take their dog(s) out to go to the bathroom. I’ll also help train or reinforce simple training. I have a dog of my own so daily I make sure he has food, clean and clear water. I also make sure he goes to the bathroom. We used to go to daycare, but now we do daily walks! I would love to help do these things for you and your pet plus more! I feed my pets twice a day and make sure they always have clean and clear water. I make sure they go outside every couple of hours, but if they show they need to go out sooner, I take them out. I play with my pets and love to cuddle! When I worked in a daycare, I made sure the pets were fed and had clean water. I also took them out three times a day for two hours each time.

“Sara is very friendly and personable. You can tell she really likes her cats. I would definitely recommend her to anyone!”
