House Sitting in Round Lake

“Ju-lie is an amazing pet sitter. I am very particular about who watches my dog. I had no worries leaving her in Ju-lie’s care. She was very attentive to my instructions for caring for her. She sent me pictures of her and let me know how things were going. She left my apartment clean, and exactly how I left it. I look forward to having Ju-lie watch Miah again for me! I highly recommend her as a pet sitter.”

“A 5-star rating just isn't high enough! Angela truly loves dogs and this is her calling. She welcomes your list of your dog's routine, foods, walks, and the words you commonly use with your pup. The house is cleaner than I left it. I finally took a vacation because I knew my dog was in loving hands. Thank you Angela!”

About: Calm, Reliable Overnight Dog Sitter with Large-Breed Experience. I understand that every animal is different. Some dogs love long adventures, others prefer quiet walks. Some cats demand attention, others just want you to refill the food and leave them be. I adjust my care to match your pet’s needs — whether that means a hike, a cuddle session, or just respectful presence and clean routines. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and small animals with all sorts of temperaments — anxious, energetic, elderly, or aloof. I offer overnight stays, dog walks, drop-in visits, and special outings (like private Sniffspot walks for dogs who need extra space). I provide consistent updates, clear communication, and take your animal’s physical and emotional safety seriously. If you’re looking for someone who will meet your pets with kindness, attentiveness. — I’d love to help. I’m happy to accommodate longer stays or multiple dogs — just send a message to discuss your needs! I work part time and make my own schedule. I am frequently available and aside from house sitting I can offer anything from early morning walks to late night check-ins I have reliable transportation and I make sure to provide updates as needed, extra treats and supplies always on hand. Long walks in safe places are a specialty.

“Evelyn was fantastic with my senior dog, and pup that can be lazy and have spurts of energy. Additionally, she was great with our cats, giving very detailed updates throughout the trip. I really appreciated the level of care, the attention to details, and the extra mile she went to ensure a smooth trip for not only her but myself. Incredibly grateful to have found her!”

About: I have been sitting for years and currently have two dogs of my own. Our older dog had ear cancer so I am familiar with how to care for sick dogs and how to give medicine and the treatments of such nature. I currently work during the work week so I am free most nights during the week week do stop ins and then have much more open availability on the weekends! I am very attentive to the needs set out by the parents and make sure I am following instructions! I love taking the pets and walks as it’s good for both me and them! I would love to play and also can be down for a good cuddle as well.

“I couldn’t recommend Net (Stephanie B) anymore! We went away for a few days for thanksgiving and left her with our 2 dogs, 3 cats, lizard, and chickens and she was absolutely fantastic. She followed our feeding walking directions perfectly and had excellent communication. Our house was left nicer than we left it and our pups were clearly happy and well taken care of. She even made sure to give them a walk before we got home so we could unpack and relax. Don’t hesitate, book Net!”

Elise P.

“My dogs absolutely loved Alexa! She did a great job with them even though they can be difficult to walk. She took great care of my house and sent pictures throughout the visit. We’ve already booked her again!”

Maureen G.

“Onyx took the best care of Pearl and we are so grateful! She was responsive and attentive and we knew that Pearl was extremely well cared for. We would absolutely book Onyx again and would recommend her to anybody!”

Madi C.

“We were so grateful to have found Anna for this stay!! She was very helpful and stayed in touch with updates and photos. We were extra worried about leaving Lexi for this trip, as it was our first time away after our other dog passed. Anna was so understanding and took great care of our baby (and house!) while we were gone!! Thank you so much Anna!!!”

“Laina is a FANTASTIC sitter and friend to animals! My grandfather passed and we desperately needed a sitter. Luckily for us, Laina had availability and met us for a meet-and-greet at our convenience. She drove through a blizzard to stay with our cat and dog. She was thorough, sent us several reassuring updates with photos, and treated our fur babies (and home) with care! I’ve never felt so comfortable leaving my pets and look forward to working with her in the future. 10/10!”

Kate A.

“Kayla was AMAZING! She gave me peace of mind while I was away, knowing that Tucker was with someone who really cared for him. Kayla watched my pup for a few days over Thanksgiving and was very communicative and flexible. Definitely will be using her again!”

About: I've been pet sitting for many years and now will be expanding onto Rover.

“Lauren stayed with our dog while we were away for a few days. She is very nice, prompt, and professional. She sent pictures and kept us updated while we were gone. We came home to a happy dog. We got back later than we expected due to airline issues and she was very accommodating by staying until we got home. I highly recommend her.”

“Haley was a lovely sitter and house guest. She was on time, sent lots of updates and photos of Raven. Raven also has some very specific needs that Haley was able to accommodate. Haley was also very thoughtful with the space and even started the dishwasher and put her sheets/towels in the laundry machine. I would definitely book Haley again.”

About: I am a college sophomore on the pre-veterinary track. I have extensive animal experience, including, but not limited to, giving medications to special needs and elderly dogs. I have worked with animals with all different temperaments and am able to work with each one at the level that they are comfortable with. I won't just watch your pup. I will make sure that they are happy and exercised! I will maintain communication and provide regular updates to assure you and your family that your pets are doing great! I'm currently working full time, but I will still have lots of time around my work schedule to make sure that your pet is getting all the love and attention it deserves! When I care for pets in their own home, I keep everything as close to their normal routine as possible. This helps reduce stress and keeps them feeling secure. I always: - Follow your instructions carefully (feeding, walks, meds, etc.) - Keep your home tidy and clean up after pets - Provide companionship, cuddles, and playtime - Maintain their usual sleep, potty, and exercise habits - Bring in mail or water plants if needed - Send photos and updates so you know they’re doing great My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and happy while you're away.

“I am so glad that I found Angela! She took such amazing care of my 3 little loves last weekend. I don't leave them often and if you knew how adorable they are you'd understand why. I also am super protective of them and my first born is on a whole lot of meds because he is 16. This did not faze Angela at all ... she was so conscientious with reading the notes and making sure my baby got all his meds at the right dose and at the right time. One of my other little ones struggles with strangers. Angela wanted to do everything she could to help him adjust by stopping by tow more times after the meet and greet to help him get acclimated to her. My other baby just wanted to be her best friend and Angela gave him that time and attention. I came home and I could tell my pups felt good and were happy and that was so important to me. We love our new babysitter!!”
