Blake always takes excellent care of our pup and our house. This last trip was extra, as we left town for a week during a stretch of severe winter weather. Chewie enjoys spending time with Blake. And we appreciate having someone on site when the weather drops below zero!

Carol took great care of Charlie while we were gone! She played in the yard with him and took him on walks. We would definitely use her again!

Taylor was very communicative which I find one of the most important attributes of my sitter. Of course she was very good with Kona. I recommend her services.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life; big medium small. I have always been able to create connections with furry friends by giving them lots of love and attention. I’m very attentive when it comes to taking care of senior dogs and their needs. As well as being just as playful as puppies are. I’m currently on summer break before I go to college to become a pediatrician. This being said, my schedule is very available for a long while! For my dog at home, I treat her like family! I walk her daily, feed her twice a day, and give her snuggles and lots of love. I take her outside in the backyard about every hour in the fenced in backyard and she’ll run around and go nuts chasing her ball, and running after rabbits.

Lizette was absolutely amazing! She watched Harley and Tatum and truly went above and beyond in every way. She accommodated us last minute without hesitation, which was such a blessing for our family. From the moment she walked in, our dogs instantly loved her—you could just tell she has a natural connection with animals. She was incredibly attentive, caring, and made sure they were comfortable and well taken care of the entire time. She even sent us updated photos of them the entire time we were away which was a nice touch. We’ve never had an in-home sitter before, so we were a little nervous at first, but Liz completely put our minds at ease. She was respectful of our home and treated everything with care. Honestly, we feel so grateful that she was placed in our path. She was truly an answer to our prayers, and we would trust her again in a heartbeat! Thank you Liz.

About: My passion for dogs has been with me since a very young age. As a child, my dream was to be a vet because of my passion and love for animals. I have 20 years of service, and my approach to caring for my dogs at home has always been holistic and natural. I've reversed my dog's diagnosed disease naturally and have saved his life naturally when vets have told me to put my dog to sleep. I'm thorough with my dogs’ routine, medication, diet, and cleaning eating. That makes me highly prepared for the dogs I tend to. Fun fact: My family and I own 17 pets! Usually, when everyone goes on a family trip, I'm the caregiver for all our pets at once. Hopefully, the background I give of my experience gives you peace in choosing me to watch your babies 🐩🐶🐕 I do freelance work; it's my main source of income. Therefore, it’s easy to create my own schedule and very flexible days and hours. It will be easier for you to book with me as I strive to work with your schedule and needs effortlessly Personally, with my own dog, I'm highly attentive. Even though we have a backyard, I strongly believe in always being present and attentive when taking your dog out to potty. Even in your own backyard! Anytime they are outside, I will be present. I also think it’s important to interact and be present regularly with them; they need attention and love, too. I make sure to spend time with my dog when I come home and make time to play, cuddle, and show him affection . Also, it's important for me to take him out of the house. Even if it's a short walk, cruising in the car to pick up errands or food. It's important for them to explore and experience different environments.

Julianna agreed to a last minute house sitting request for our dog Augie, who suffers from separation anxiety. She made it a point to show up early to meet Augie and ensure she understood everything he would need for the evening. Augie loved her right away and Julianna took great care of him, giving him lots of attention and affection. We highly recommend Julianna and will definitely keep her on the top of our list for future sittings!

About: I have been raised with a pet by side. When I have born we had two brittany spaniels that have since passed on. In 8th grade, after they passed, we adopted another puppy brittany. A year later, we adopted another, to have our current pair of brittanys. So I have experience raising puppies as well. I play with them outdoors and indoors, brush them, clean up their poop, bath them, feed them, and train them. They also get taken on walks at the local forest preserve for stimulation. I have experience in caring for fish and snakes. Between dogs, I had my cat to keep me company. She is solely my cat, so she got the same attention as the dogs, plus I bought her toys, treats, litter, and food. Outside of my dogs I have pet sit goldens labs, goldendoodles, springer spaniels, and many other breeds. As in my headline, I don't think any animal is low maintenance. That just means the pet isn't getting the care it deserves. I had my cat at my dorm first semester, and I fed her breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I made sure to play with twice a day and we played birds on the tv for stimulation as well. I had a weekly schedule to brush her twice a week, and clean the litter box every Sunday and Wednesday. At home I would alternate playing with my dogs, training, and brushing them whenever possible. I can play indoors and outdoors. I can take the animal for walks. Clean up any potential messes, such as muddy dogs or if a cat has a hairball. I can accompany senior pets that need help eating. I can brush the animal. And feed them, and do basic training.

About: I grew up around dogs as my grandma was a verified trainer and breeder. I’ve been around all sizes of dogs ranging from German Shepards to Corgis. I had my own dogs growing up that were professionally trained. While I no longer have my own dog, I am around one constantly and have always had a love for them. I do work the weekends at a restaurant so later at nights but during the weekdays, I am almost always free and in town. I am a night owl but do wake up very easily in the mornings. I plan to follow and abide by any rules or boundaries that the owner sets for their home. I will not able to house any dogs at my own house but will make sure that any doors or yards are locked.

About: I've had the pleasure of caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and ages, and I love getting to know what makes each one special. Whether your dog is energetic and adventurous or prefers a slower pace, I'll make sure they receive attentive care, plenty of affection, and a safe, comfortable experience while you're away. Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine. As a cat owner and experienced pet sitter, I'm used to planning my schedule around feeding times, walks, playtime, medication schedules when needed, and plenty of attention. I enjoy spending time with animals and make it a priority to provide consistent, reliable care that helps pets feel comfortable and loved while their owners are away. I believe pets are happiest when their normal routine is maintained, so I take the time to learn each pet's schedule, preferences, and needs. In a client's home, I provide attentive care that includes feeding, fresh water, walks or playtime, litter box or potty breaks, medication administration if needed, and plenty of affection. I treat every home with respect and keep owners updated with photos and messages so they can feel confident their pets are in good hands.

About: From dogs to turtles to birds. I grew up with animals all my life. I have my own young pup and senior dog. I truly know the time it takes, walking/ exercising, food schedule, and love to give to both! I love love love animals, so I definitely want to incorporate pet sitting into my lifestyle; especially if it means I can help others during their travels and such. I’m a new mom, but I have a flexible schedule most days! If my hubby works during the time of your pet’s care, I will have to bring the baby so he’s not left alone. I know the value in crate training, potty/ food schedules if need be, being in a comfortable space for your pet, and anything to maintain their sanctuary at home.

About: I have had all types of animals my entire life. I had 3 cats in my childhood, then as I got older we had guinea pigs and fish. I was a volunteer at a local humane society for 6 years growing up. I then worked at Kendall County Animal Control as a Kennel Technician for over a year. Then I worked at a highly established Naperville Animal Vet for a year as a Veterinary Assistant/Receptionist. I have been at PetSmart for over 4 years now. I am a active member of Renko Animal Rescue as a volunteer and foster. I specialize in alot of animal care, but if I had to specifically pick one, im a cat person. I do have alot of knowledge about dogs, such as medical, feeding, nutrition, excerise, and behavioral from all my past jobs/experience. I currently have 3 cats, 2 guinea pigs, 2 gerbils, a bearded dragon, a betta fish, and 30 exotic shrimp! I am currently full-time. But I do get to write my own schedules, so I can work around any needs. I can do mornings, nights, weekends, and holidays! My entire care will be completely based around your animals needs. I will ask how their normal day is, and I'd like to keep it very similar, so there's no stress or discomfort. But of course they will get lots of love, because who can resist their cute little faces!

This was the first time we had a dog sitter and the first time using rover. Sierra did an excellent job dealing with the dogs while we were on vacation. They did not make it easy on her but she handled it well and we appreciated all her hard work.
