What can we say, but Josh and Anja were amazing again! Josh stayed with our pups just over the evening this time and as always, he did a fantastic job with the dogs and the house! Knowing that our dogs are so well cared for puts us completely at ease. Looking forward to another great stay again soon!

Morgan was great at communicating and sending photos on how her stay was going with our dog, Boston. We were able to relax knowing Boston was in great hands while we were hours away.

Megan is a kind, compassionate, and loving person whom I am fortunate beyond words to have as my partner. Her cats, Meila and Gluestick, are just about the luckiest two pets in the world — Megan has decked out her space with all sorts of gadgets to keep them engaged and healthy. From automatic litter boxes and food dispensers to the usual assortment of toys and treats, Megan has invested in a top-notch lifestyle for Meila and Gluestick. Megan would be a perfect fit for offering services through Rover!

My wife and I really adore Angela. She is extremely professional and caring towards our boys. We don’t look at them as pets, they are family members and this is exactly how Angela treated them. We were able to go away with the peace of mind that our boys and home were looked after and in good hands. Thank you Angela and we look forward to seeing you again. Kate & Derek

About: Hello! My name is Maria. I have owned dogs all through out my life, all breeds and sizes, and I am the first person my family and friends call to watch their pups! I have always grown up with dogs and had family dogs since I was a kid. I have my own rescue named cooper who is an 6 year old Australian Shepard, pit bull mix. He is full of energy and sass! Experience with many breeds and sizes, elderly dogs with specific needs, separation anxiety, leash aggression etc... I have training experience with leash walking, basic training, tricks and certain behavioral training experience. Your furry friends will get lots of love and care. Weather you need someone to keep an eye on your pup, take them for a run, or provide some play time, I am your gal! I am available Wednesday and Fridays as well as weekends and Tuesday mornings. I am very flexible so just ask for whatever you need! I am looking forward to taking care of your best friends! I am currently working part time so I love to fill my extra time with furry friends and helping out busy pet owners! I am also an online student so I am able to be flexible and make my own schedule outside of work. I will be sure to accommodate any needs or requests you have for your pets particular care while I am looking after them. Just ask!

About: My dog have always been apart of my family. These furry friends definitely have a special place in my heart and I love all types of dogs. I have had 4 dogs since I was young and took the responsibility to adopt my own once I moved away from home for school. He is my best friend and we do everything together from going to the beach and the dog park almost every day. I have two year old dog that I take everywhere and I have a 6 month old puppy who permanently lives with my family. They are best friends and your dog can join the party. I give my dogs a bath about one a week after the park or every other week if they do not go anywhere. Your dog can become apart of the fun! I have the summer off so so am available when you need me to be to take care of your pups! My schedule is very flexible which is perfect for your needs. I am in an am apartment, however I live across the street from a park and can take the pups their to give them all the exercise they need.

Morgan took the best care of puppy golden doodle. He was flexible to our timing needed and went above and beyond to even stay at our house for us with her. He had wonderful communication, had true kindness and care for our little puppy and her puppy energy and he took incredible care of our home while we were away. He is trustworthy and absolutely the best choice for anyone needing someone reliable & honest. He gave our puppy the best love and attention. Hands down he’s the best for your family, home and loving pet! There’s no price on peace of mind and Morgan provides that!

About: I am very kind, responsible / organized, punctual, and I just love animals, especially dogs. I grew up with dogs of all different sizes.

I have previous experience with handling medicine with dogs. I will make sure your dog feels comfortable and loved. I have a very flexible schedule. I am available to work full-time hours if needed, and I am available on the weekends if that is needed. I treat all animals with love and respect. For my client’s home, I am willing to crate their dog or do whatever works best for them. I can spend time a lot of time outside with their dogs. If the dogs come to my place, I am willing to accommodate their needs, so they feel comfortable and more at home.

About: I have lived with dogs all my life. I love playing and cuddling with the sweet ones. Once I can I will be getting a dachshund or pitbull. When my neighbor of 2 years is out of town, I take care of his 2 pit bulls, both over 10 years old. I work Monday to Friday 8:30-5:30pm with an hour lunch starting at 12:30. If your house is close enough to my warehouse I will be able to visit them during my lunch hour. In my house, the pets are fully inside cats. We make sure to open blinds during the day so they have places to lie in the sun, which they love. They are dry food once a day and wet food every other day. Whatever the client needs to be done for the pet I will do to the best of my abilities.

James (Jim) is kind and has a great time with my two dogs. He is responsible, trustworthy, and keeps in communication so you know what your pet is up to while you are away. My dogs are happy when "uncle Jim" is taking care of them and it is peace of mind for me.

Meghan stayed with my dogs for 4 days while we were out of town for the holidays, last minute. She did a fantastic job, and I'd highly recommend her!! Her communication stood out from the beginning—she was quick to respond and provide helpful information. When we left, the dogs were immediately comfortable staying with her. Meghan had sent multiple updates throughout the day while we were gone. She's incredibly responsive, responsible, trustworthy, and great with animals. Would absolutely asked her to help out again and would highly recommend her!

About: I have always had a special connection with animals, dogs especially, and grown up being called an animal whisper. Ive had dogs of all ages my whole life. I have experience with puppies, adults and senior dog care. Currently learning more and more about training dogs and using thoes techniques on my husky mix. Im all for giving your furry friends the care they deserve❤️I dont have any cats! I am currently working at an Assisted Living and Memory Care Facility in Yorkville and my shift is 6am-2pm. My schedule changes every other week. Although my boyfriend works the 3pm-11pm shift so someone is home most of the time. I am not totally free but I would be willing to work something out! My house has a front and back yard-not too big. We use a tie out for our dog and we have a few extras if needed for your dog! Me and my boyfriend live in a two bedroom duplex. Most areas of the house is dog proofed and we have plenty of toys for both to play with. My dog does really good with other dogs and loves to have company and a friend to play with. He is still younger so he can be hyper at first but will eventually calm down:)
