House Sitting in Round Lake Beach

“I had the best experience with Lee. He watched my two dogs while I was away at a conference and took such great care of them! They went on walks, I got tons of pictures/videos and updates, and he even drew me a picture of my dogs! I’m always a little nervous to leave my dogs, especially with someone new, but Lee made it easy. I would absolutely recommend booking with Lee!!”

“Ayla was awesome, sweet, and very attentive. I appreciate her sending me pictures and updates and she followed all of my instructions. Would love to book her again.”

“Jennifer did a wonderful job caring for our 3 dogs and 3 cats while we were gone for the week. Jennifer sent daily updates and pictures and was immediately responsive to our texts. We returned to a happy crew and clean house. She even checked in a few days later to see how the animals were adjusting. We will use her again and you should too!!!”

“This is our second time working with Haley and she was just as great as the first time. Duke clearly loves her and she’s so communicative, responsible, and caring. We are able to enjoy our time away and not stress while she’s staying at our home and caring for our fave furry guy!”

Iveree B.

“Our original sitter canceled the day before our trip, and we were so relieved that Brittany was available last minute. She arranged a meet and greet the same day we reached out and started the booking the very next day. She took amazing care of our two dogs and two cats while we were away for three days and sent regular updates. We’re so grateful and will definitely book with her again!”

About: I am an animal lover to the fullest and your neighborhood pet sitter! Being around dogs is a form of therapy for me; I also give the best chin and belly rubs a pet could ask for... so it's a win-win! I grew up in a dog household. I will properly care for your pet as if they were my own. My schedule is very flexible and I am open to working with your busy schedule and your pets' needs. I have experience with many kittens and full grown cats and puppies as well as elderly dogs. I am learning more about this industry and pets everyday and loving every day of it! I look forward to meeting you and becoming your pets' newest friend!

“Gwen was absolutely wonderful with Chevy! She followed all instructions to a T, sent us tons of sweet updates and photos, and left our home spotless. Chevy was clearly happy and well cared for—we could tell he felt totally at ease. We’re so grateful for the love and attention she gave him and would welcome her back anytime!”

“Neil provided updates when requested and left home tidy upon departure. Animals were in good care during the stay. ☻”

About: I've worked for a dog walking company, wrangled ferrets, and outsmarted wily cats. With nearly a decade of pet sitting experience I'm ready for just about anything your furry friend can throw at me. I'm adept at problem solving and can meet your pet where they need me to be. I have experience administering medication and coaxing the anxious and stubborn out of their shells. I am free most days in the morning and the afternoon if you need a walker quickly. My schedule is flexible and I am willing to work with clients to meet their needs. I will follow any instructions clients give for how much freedom they want their pets to have. I usually like to keep them in sight or in an enclosed area like a fenced in yard when not out on a walk. I like playing and keeping them entertained or sitting quietly together if they're tired. It mostly depends on the energy levels and temperament of each individual.

“We were happy with the accommodations that was provided for us and our pup . It helped us enjoy our day knowing he was safe . Friendly , kind and awesome care was given and we are lucky to have found her”

About: I began doing pet sitting in 2016 for family & friends, and that was most of my sitting experience until I began my dog training certification. Now I’ve been in pet care professionally for two years, and have had my dog trainer certification for half of that. My weeks are based around pet care. I do it full-time and have a customizable schedule based around my various clients & appointments. I have special hours available at request. I make sure to get an exact outline of what is expected/allowed for the pet, and am not shy about requesting elaboration if there’s any confusion on my part. Additionally, I like to do what I can to keep them mentally stimulated with games, activities, and some light obedience training/reinforcement so they can hopefully carry that good behavior over to their daily life.

“Haley and Alex came through for me in a very last-minute and stressful situation due to a family emergency. They stayed with my Boys and kept them happy and cared for in my home while I was out of town. They were great about keeping me updated, especially knowing how stressed I was since this was the first time anyone besides my immediate family took care of my pups. I would definitely book them again and will recommend them to all of my pet parent friends! 🐶🐾”

“Ashlee was wonderful! My pups were well taken care of and she sent me lots of pics and videos so I knew they were in good hands the whole time.”

Tracie C.

“Natalie was the perfect sitter. Reliable and loving, I could tell the dogs enjoyed her.”

Roy N.

“Kim was so great with Captain! She gave us updates and understood he is just a puppy. She took her experience and her patience and gave Captain such a great day of playful fun and naps!”

Ashley B.

About: Though I don’t have as many years of experience, I’m committed to caring for all fur babies as my own! I have previously cared for new born pups and senior dogs, and I love the joys and challenges each age range brings. Some specific things I’ve helped with are support with potty training, and administering medicine. I am currently working part time, and i’m also a part time student, so most of my availability will be for the weekends! But I will have some midweek availability in the mornings and evenings! I’m a very quick learner and will always do my very best to accommodate even the most specific needs for your pets. I’m very patient, and will strive to make your pets feel as safe and loved as possible! I am a great communicator and can provide updates/pictures as frequently as you require.

“Paige did a wonderful job watching over our dog and our home. We were able to have a great vacation knowing our dog was being spoiled and loved on.”

Tony R.

About: I’ve taken care of lizards and dogs. I’ve trained my own dog, and he has been canine good citizen certified. My dog gets along well with other dogs but in the event of an issue I have pens and crates to separate animals with consent. I currently provide time to walk my dog each morning, afternoon and night with play time during the day as I work from home. I am very flexible. 2-3 walks daily, with play time or training once to burn energy. My complex has a dog park which I utilize about once a week

“One of the best we have found on Rove! Please do not hesitate to book Kathy as needed. She’s kind, communicative, competent, and very caring towards our animals, as is her whole family!”
