“Liz was great to work with. She provided wonderful care for our new puppy as well as our other pups. My dogs were happy to see her and I felt much better knowing our puppy wasn't in her crate for too long. I knew my dogs and home were in good hands. I will definitely look for her again when we need help with our dogs.”


About: I always try my best to make your dog happy. I have an appreciation for dogs, they keep my life moving. I enjoy meeting new dogs and making new friends. I work part time so I’m definitely free for some days. Weekdays I usually work 9am through 5 pm and weekends 6pm through midnight. Text me if you ever need anything, happy to help. I have a big yard to play with your dog and it’s fenced. I also have a friendly dog but usually shy meeting new dogs

“Maricela did drop in visits for us while we were on a cruise. It was my first time using Rover and I couldn’t be more pleased. She was super responsive to messages and always checking in. I have such a hard time leaving our pets for vacation but she made that part of the trip so easy for us. I would refer her to anyone who needed pet sitting services. I can’t thank her enough.”


About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life, ranging from English mastiffs, huskies, to shih tzuhs and Malteses! I’m here to make YOUR life EASIER and to create great trusting bonds with you and your dog! I’m available pretty much 24/7, so whatever you need just ask!! i can do as early as 6am and as late as 10pm. if you need something specific let me know :) I have a very friendly Dalmatian (5yoM) who will LOVE to either run around like crazy with your baby or completely just become one with the couch with them! I have a small fenced in yard for quick potty breaks and ton of grassy areas and paths i like to walk on for longer walks. I usually do a nice long walk in the morning before breakfast, potty breaks during the day and then another walk after dinner. If your dog has different needs just let me know! Simba and I don’t mind, we love doing what our friends enjoy!

“Eleanor did a fantastic job taking care of our fur baby. She answered to a last minute multi-day request. She was very communicative and took pictures that made being away a bit bearable. We'll definitely be using Eleanor in the future. Thanks again, Eleanor!”


About: I have been a nanny/babysitter since I was in middle school and pet care goes hand in hand with that. I’ve taken care of all of my clients’ pets when they are out of town. I currently have my own fur baby (Hank the GSD) so I don’t do overnight pet sitting anymore but I am looking for drop in jobs in my area I am a full time nanny in Arlington heights so I am able to drop in before or after work and on the weekends to check on your pets. I work roughly 8am-5pm M-F I can come check on your pets and play with them. Make sure they have food/water and take them for short walks before work or longer walks after work. On the weekends I am able to stay longer to spend time with them but no overnights.

About: I worked as a veterinarian for the past 5 years in Belarus. In April, I moved to the U.S. and am currently improving my English to get my diploma certified. I adore dogs—they make me happy, and I already miss interacting with them so much! I can walk your pets, play with them, feed them, and provide at-home treatments/medical care as prescribed by your veterinarian. I offer flexible pet care at your convenience — morning, afternoon, evening or night (advance notice required) . Services include walks, playtime and vet-approved treatments. I easily connect with dogs and cats of all temperaments. With patience and a gentle approach, I earn their trust and friendship, always prioritizing animal-friendly care.

About: I’m the designated pet sitter in my family and family friends. I’m able to watch and take care of both dogs and cats. I respect your pets time to gain their trust as well as monitoring their body language and behavior to foresee and issues they may have. I’m able to swing by for potty breaks and brief socialization during the day. After 3pm I’m able to spend time with the pets fully. Depending on what day of the week will impact how long I’m able to care for your pet. For both dogs and cats the treatment is different. I’m able to watch body language and respect your pets time so they can adjust to having a new person touch and take care of them.

About: My boyfriend calls me a dog whisperer. Every dog we encounter on our walks comes to me first and gets so excited to see me. I have a pretty flexible schedule with my kids being in school and only working part time, so I have the time to give your pups some attention. I have a friendly clean home. I have a dog park close to where I live for socialization and expending energy. . I do have a crate if need be.

I also have plenty of outdoor space within my own home for pets.

I’ve got a large fenced in yard with plenty of room for your dog to run and play in. I’ve also got plenty of room in my house if a crate is needed. I’ll take care of your dog as if he or she was my own.

“Dr. Polina Zajtseva provided outstanding post-surgery care for my Chihuahua, Benedict. Not only is she highly skilled (administering injections and wound treatment flawlessly), but she also has a rare gift for connecting with animals—even my usually wary Benedict adored her! Her warmth, patience, and genuine compassion made his recovery so much smoother. We remember her with immense gratitude and affection. 100% recommend to anyone seeking a vet who combines expertise with heart!”
