“Shannon is always reliable and on time. She is very good with Sequoia and is always great about communicating with us on our pup's status. Thank you, Shannon! We appreciate you!”
“Cathy started caring for our black lab, Wendy, last week. She responded so quickly to my messages and was able to do a meet and greet within days of my first message to her! Our dog loves Cathy and it’s been going really well when Cathy comes to let her out at lunchtime. I would definitely recommend Cathy to care for your pet! She has a lab of her own and a lot of experience.”
“Brianna took care of my cats while my fiancée and I were out of town. It’s a bit difficult to find sitters that can administer oral medicine to cats, and Brianna was able to meet the task, give love to my 2 cats and make sure their area was well kept. She responds quickly to texts as well. If you need a cat sitter, I would recommend her to any client!”
“Kaylee did a great job. Very communicative and flexible when there was issues with our garage door opener while we were away. Glad to have her able to check in on our dog while we were away for a trip.”
“Nicole did an incredible job! We were gone for two weeks in Italy and she gave us peace of mind that our two kitties were in great hands. She was attentive and communicative. We came home to two happy cats :) If you want to have someone of good character watch your precious little ones, Nicole should be your choice!”
About: I have taken care of dogs for over 15 years now. We always have had one dog at a time but love them dearly! We have a fenced backyard safe and clean for the dogs to roam around. If you need walks, let us know the schedule. We also rescued a puppy in Dec 2025 after our previous dog of 6 years passed away (from cancer). We have gated areas to keep pups apart for their alone time and get together for playtime! I am currently at home full time so I’m very flexible with hours and routine. I will work around the schedules to meet your dog’s needs. I have a FENCED backyard and our backyard is regularly cleaned. We have a gated area in the home to keep the dogs separate for their “me time” if needed. We also never let our dog upstairs or in the basement so if yours needs to sleep in the bed, we can’t do that. We also don’t let dogs on our couches. We love our furry family members and they should have their own furniture:) We have an XL crate if you prefer we can use it for your dog. We have several safe toys for the dogs but let me know if your pup has a tendency to get into things. We will always keep an eye out! We also have pet safe indoor plants throughout the home. If your dog has a habit of digging into pots, please let me know.
About: I’ve been a lifelong animal lover and have years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages and personalities. After losing my own beloved senior dogs, I’m not quite ready to bring another dog into my life permanently, but I truly miss having animals around and would love the opportunity to care for yours as if they were my own. I’m comfortable with everything from energetic dogs who love walks and playtime to senior pets who simply want companionship, cuddles and a cozy place to nap. I’ve also cared for large dogs, including my 100-lb Boxer, so bigger pups don’t intimidate me! I understand how important it is to know that your pets are safe, loved and getting plenty of attention while you’re away. My goal is to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible, with plenty of affection and updates for you along the way. I work full-time from 7:30 a.m.–4:30 p.m., but I have flexibility that works really well for pet sitting. I’m available to stay in your home during the workweek as long as you have reliable Wi-Fi, which allows me to work remotely and be there with your pets throughout the day. I’m also available for walks and drop-in visits after 4:30 p.m. on weekdays and have more flexibility on weekends. I love having furry coworkers! I know how much trust it takes to leave both your pets and your home in someone else’s care. I will treat your home respectfully and your pets as if they were my own. I’m careful about doors, gates, leashes, feeding instructions and medications, and I’ll follow your pet’s established routine as closely as possible. Their safety and comfort are always my priority, and I’m happy to send plenty of photos and updates so you can relax while you’re away!

“We were out for a few days, and Kayla stopped by three times to take care of our dog. She attended to all our requests and more, very friendly and easy to work with. She kept us updated throughout the process. I highly recommend Kayla to all my friends who need a pet sitter or just drop-ins.”
“Karina is the absolute best she takes such great good care of my cat Aster. I love all the pictures and updates throughout the booking. I would highly recommend booking with Karina”

Also, she is very interactive with you and let you know everything that’s going on with your animal so you never feel left out or you have to worry.

About: I've owned and cared for dogs since early childhood. One of my childhood dogs, a silky terrier named Minnie, lived to be 16 years old. I have experience taking care of dogs of all ages, sizes, and needs. My current dog is leash reactive and requires special attention on walks. I can also provide care for other pets such as cats, fish, frogs, geckos, etcetera. I am very flexible on evenings and weekends to provide care as well as some early mornings during the week. Even though I have a full time job outside of pet care, I want to dedicate as much time as possible taking care of animals. Your dog's safety is my priority, and we will either play outside in your fully fenced in backyard or take a walk in an area safe for us. I can handle many different behaviors for leashed dogs including dog reactivity, squirrel or small animal chasing, etcetera.
About: Something that sets me apart is that I’m a dog trainer, actively pursuing to achieve certification for professional dog trainer. I participate regularly with dog training and actively see a dog training mentor weekly. I have loved dogs since I was very little. I do a pretty good job at reading their body language and how to anticipate their next moves.I’m able to reduce the anxiety a dog might have being away from you and with a new person. I use positive reinforcement by being gentle and firm and I try to be fun and playful with the dog or puppy. I have two dogs. I actively take them out, I feed them every morning and night. I bathe when they need it. I walk them and take them to dog classes or improve any behavior issues they might have or come across. Apart from my dogs, I participle imagine dog training classes as a student and to demonstrate dog training techniques. Such as: Sitting, downing, standing, staying and walking nicely in lead, etc. Maintaining owners schedule such as feeding, walking, medications, etc. Ensuring the cleanliness of the dog and dog waste in the yard or other properties. I will actively play with the dogs to tire them out and do what I can to ensure the health and enjoyment of the dog.

I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family is happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. 🐶💕 Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine—not just a job.

“I was able to book Hannah on short notice and was so glad I was able to! She asked a lot of questions beforehand and was up for the occasion considering my dog just got neutered. During the stay, she was in contact with my to make sure he ate and took him for a walk, all went well!”
“Brittany took great care of my cat while out of town! It was clear from the get-go that she’s an organized, responsible pet sitter who loves animals and takes their personalities/routines/preferences into account. We appreciated the detailed updates and pictures from each check in, it was reassuring to know our cat was in good hands. Highly recommend Brittany and we’ll definitely work with her again!”
About: 🐾 I’ve been caring for dogs since I was a young child, and it’s been a lifelong passion. Over the years, I’ve looked after pups of all sizes - from a tiny 8 lb mini dachshund to a brawny 100 lb pitbull mix. My experience includes everything from energetic puppies to slow-moving seniors, each with their own needs and personalities. I currently live with two spayed female dogs who are well-socialized and have peacefully cohabitated with several foster dogs since last year. I regularly volunteer with Border Tails Rescue, providing a safe, nurturing home for dogs in transition. Through fostering, I’ve gained deep experience with behavior observation, gentle training, and helping anxious or shy dogs feel secure. I’ve managed feeding routines, administered medications, and supported dogs through recovery and adjustment periods. I’m especially mindful of canine body language and group dynamics, and I only accept dogs who are friendly with others to maintain a safe, peaceful environment. Caring for dogs isn’t just something I do... it’s something I truly love. I treat every pup with patience, respect, and the kind of attention I’d want for my own. 🐶 When dog sitting, I am home most of day so your pup will have lots of attention. On occasions I do leave the house, your pup will be crated or separated from my dogs in a segregated area for their safety. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I share my home with two friendly, playful dogs - Miley, a 50 lb pit mix, and a 75 lb American Bully. They are well-socialized and enjoy respectful canine company. My securely fenced yard provides space for supervised outdoor play, and my middle school children, who are also well-versed in watching and caring for dogs, help ensure everyone feels safe and supported. I only accept pups who are crate/house trained, non-reactive, and dog-friendly to maintain a positive, secure environment for all.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Rolling Meadows
This was our first time using Rover and I am so happy we found Shannon. My cats are generally very shy until they get to know someone. It usually takes someone new being a guest in our home multiple times before the cats come out of hiding. Max ran for the back bedroom when the doorbell rang for our Meet & Greet with Shannon but a few minutes later he was rubbing up on her asking for affection. I was more than a little surprised. He knows who he can trust. I was very happy when Shannon sent pictures of both cats walking towards the door to greet her when she came over every day just as she said she would. We will be contacting Shannon again as soon we know we'll be away from home - we are confident we will be leaving the cats with someone who cares about animals.
Leah is an amazing dog sitter!! Her communication was amazing!! Loved getting pictures of my pup while I was away! I have a dog who is very anxious, and she warmed up to Leah so quickly! She is great with dogs and very caring! It gave me piece of mind and I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing Blue was is great hands and well taken care of!! I will definitely be using her again!! Thank you Leah!!
We had Nicole drop in on our 2 shorthair cats for around a week and a half while me and my (now) husband were getting married, and she was famtastic! She was receptive and quick to respond, and it felt like our babies were well taken care of when we returned. I would absolutely boom her again!

During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
