“Mal did a great job taking care of our four cats! She was responsive, spent extra time there, was able to give our fiesty cat her medication, and went above and beyond keeping everything clean and giving us updates! We will definitely book with her again!”


“Paige was amazing and I am so glad I booked with her. I had some flight complications due to weather and Paige was able to extend care and be flexible to check in on my little guy. I had daily photo updates and could see that he was very happy and cared for while I was away. Very appreciative of Paige and absolutely recommend her to others looking for reliable pet care.”


About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my love for animals and my hands-on experience with dogs of all ages. Growing up, my family had two dogs, so I have cared for pets through every stage of life, from puppies to senior dogs. After caring for both, I gained valuable experience in dog walking and watching. Overall, I am confident that I can adapt to each dog’s individual needs. I am also very reliable and great at communicating. I will make it a priority to updates the parents with messages and even photos. I am currently a college-athlete, so during the school year, I do have to dedicate time each day for class and practice. However, I want to make time for this because I really enjoy spending time with animals. Since I can not be with my own, pet walking/sitting is the perfect opportunity! When I care for a pet in a client’s home, I would follow their routine as closely as possible so that their pet feels comfortable. For dog walks, I would make sure to match the dog’s energy level and needs. As for their safety, I am always alert and off my phone so that they have my full attention.

“Trisha is a gem! She is so friendly and was amazing with Luna. You can tell she really does love animals and treats all fur babies as her own. We will definitely be booking with her again!”


About: I've been taking care of dogs my entire life. My father bred labradors, and I've been sitting for my grandparents for the last 15 or so years. I recently started sitting for a friend and have decided to make it a steady source of income I'm an artist that wants to use dog sitting and walking to have a steady flexible income that allows me to be creative in my personal life. Our pitbull Stella gets the best that we can provide her. As a genuine dog lover, I will provide the best care that is in my ability to provide in your home.

About: Hi, I’m Amaya! I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life and truly love caring for pets of all kinds. I’ve grown up with dogs of all sizes and breeds, and I love teaching them tricks, going on walks, and making sure they feel safe and loved. I also have years of experience working at a pet boarding facility and volunteering at our local animal shelter, so I’m confident handling dogs and cats of all ages, temperaments, and energy levels. Whether it’s snuggles, playtime, or structured care, your pets will be treated like family with me! I work part-time at a restaurant, so my shifts aren’t the same every week. But no worries—I update my Rover calendar regularly, and I’m great at swapping shifts last-minute if I can. Just let me know your dates and I’ll make room for your pets! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I currently live with three cats and three dogs, so I don’t offer boarding or in-home pet care at this time to ensure a calm, controlled environment for everyone. However, I’m more than happy to provide drop-in visits and walks, and I take great care to follow your instructions, routines, and preferences exactly as you leave them. I always treat pets and their spaces with the same respect I give my own. Whether I’m stopping by for a quick potty break or taking your pup for a walk, I’m committed to creating a safe, loving experience every time.

About: I had a senior chihuahua of my own and have helped care for a variety of small to medium dogs for friends and family. I’m familiar with the unique needs of senior pets and have experience handling reactive behavior—especially on walks. My own dog had reactive tendencies, so I’ve learned how to manage challenging situations calmly and with care. I always aim to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m currently working full-time, but I usually have free time in the afternoons or evenings to care for our furry friends and help out as needed. I am flexible and willing to work with different hours. I always prioritize safety and respect in every environment, whether I’m in your home or out on a walk. I follow all special instructions and rules you have for your pets to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Building trust—with both pets and their owners—is always my top priority.

About: I’ve cared for dogs my whole life. You can rest assured your pups, big and small, will get all the love and attention while you’re away. I currently work full-time, Monday through Friday, but have three pups of my own at home and can board additional pups overnight during the week and can do daytime walks on weekends. I have a fenced in yard and keep your pets separated from my household pets unless they are long-time visitors and we know everyone gets along well.

About: I’ve been surrounded by pets for as long as I can remember! I grew up taking care of my own dogs, and family and friends have previously relied on me to walk, bathe, feed, and care for their furry loved ones while away. I believe in building trust with every pet I meet and I love getting to know their unique personalities! I also know how much you care for your beloved pet, so I find it important to send you continuous updates and pictures of how your furry companion is doing! I am available all day/night Thursdays through Sundays. Mondays - Wednesdays I work from 8:30am - 4pm, but I get an hour lunch during the day that I love to take walks on! I am also available before or after work. Safety, trust, and comfort are my top priorities when caring for your beloved pets. Whether in your home or mine, I provide a secure environment where your pet feels safe and can thrive. I believe maintaining a sense of trust, familiarity, and security are important so I maintain meticulous attention to detail. You can trust me to create a loving and nurturing environment where your pets feel right at home!

About: Hi, I’m Olivia! I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life and can’t imagine it any other way. I grew up with both cats and extra-large dog breeds like Newfoundlands and Labs, and now I share my life with two of my own—a sweet GS/Heeler mix named Cinder ❤️ and a lovable cat who keeps us both in check. I’ve been pet sitting since middle school, and I’m the go-to pet person for friends and coworkers. I’m also a passionate animal advocate, and I always aim to treat every pet like they’re my own. Currently, I offer dog walking and drop-in visits. Whether your pup needs an energy-burning walk or your cat just needs some company and a clean litter box, I’m happy to help! I genuinely enjoy being outdoors and connecting with animals of all kinds. I have experience with: • Large and giant breed dogs (Labs, Newfoundlands, German Shepherds, etc.) • Reactive dogs and leash-sensitive pups • Senior pets, medication routines, and special care needs • Cats, including shy or picky personalities Whether it’s a quick drop-in or a long walk, my goal is to make your pet feel safe, happy, and cared for. ⸻ Helpful Info to Share With Me To give your pet the best care possible, please let me know: • Any medical conditions or physical limitations • Behavioral quirks (especially on walks or with new people) • Triggers, fears, or specific routines that help them feel safe Thanks so much—I’d love the chance to meet your furry family member! 🐾 Pet care is a meaningful part of my daily and weekly routine. Every day, I dedicate time to feeding, exercising, and playing with pets to keep them happy and healthy. I also set aside regular blocks of time for grooming, administering medications if needed, and giving lots of attention and affection. Whether it’s a weekday or weekend, I make sure to create a consistent, caring environment that meets each pet’s unique needs. When I provide walks and drop-in visits, I prioritize each pet’s safety and comfort above all else. During walks, I keep pets securely leashed and stay aware of their surroundings to avoid any hazards. For drop-in visits, I follow the owner’s instructions closely to maintain a familiar and calm environment, making sure pets get the care, attention, and companionship they need while their family is away. Building trust with both pets and owners is important to me, so I communicate openly and respect each pet’s individual personality and needs.

About: I have been trained on dog and cat CPR, I have a flexible schedule and love dogs! I have owned and cared for dogs for with high engery, low energy, nervous energy and even aggressive energy. I am a disabled USAF veteran with a lot time on my hands that gives me a flexible schedule to be able to care for any pets needs. I have Military Base Access I have three cats: between cuddles, ensuring they have a healthy diet, yearly checks up and safe outdoors time (my cats all have harnesses and leashes) my cats have a happy life. One of my cats has high anxiety and shy. I have learned how to interact with her where she feels safe and will nap with me.

About: Please use my promo code… https://www.rover.com/sit/rosal48641 I have a Great Pyrenees and am used to large dogs and no issue handling smaller pets as well. I periodically watch pets for friends and family. Distance and time are very flexible most days. Let me know if you need assistance and I can find a way to make it work. Periodic walks are necessary for pets of all sizes and for humans as well. :) Favorite part of my day with my Pyrenees is long walks and sunshine.

“Philip is awesome! He was extremely attentive, sent great check ins, and communicated very well. He went above and beyond to make sure that everything was okay while I was away. I absolutely recommend him and will certainly be asking for his help again! Look no further for a sitter!”


About: Southern Illinois born and raised! I’ve been around animals all my life and have loved every second of it, from puppies to seniors I have all around experience. Tend well to schedules, love walking and playing with the fur babies! I am currently a stay at home mom to my sweet two year old little girl. My husband is in the Marine corps and we just moved back after 7 years of being gone from Illinois and now stationed on Scott! With my husband’s schedule I have the flexibility of doing what I love and that’s carrying for the fur babies! My house is a two story with baby gates at the top and bottom stairs. I have a fenced in yard, with two precious little fur babies. If you crate your animal my laundry room is on the main floor of the home and is quite spacious for crates or if you allow free roam the downstairs is where your little one will be!

About: I’ve had a pet dog before and he was well taken care of up until his passing. Would love some company when I’m not working. I currently work in the military and I’m off every other weekend. When I am off I am just home not doing anything but gaming. My home is fenced in and I live in a very nice neighborhood where your fur baby can feel safe and be watched after every night he is watched.

“Hazel is always so amazing with our two kitties. The thorough updates and pictures each visit helps so much when I’m feeling guilty for leaving them.. especially when I see how many treats they are getting. We have a very fast eater who will try to steal the other’s wet food, and Hazel sits with them to make sure meal time is fair. Play time is really important for our brother/sister pair and her visits with them are always action packed. I’ve been using Rover for years and can say she has been the best drop-in sitter I’ve ever had. Thank you Hazel!”


“Nick did an amazing job watching my dogs while I was away. He is very knowledgeable about taking care of dogs and that out my mind at ease when I was out of town. When I came home, my dogs and cat were completely calm as if I had only been gone for a few minutes instead of a few days.”


About: Hi everyone! I’m Tessa and I’m a stay at home mom to our daughter, 2 dogs, and 2 cats! I am a very big animal lover and I am excited to make a new friendship with all of your furbabies! I assure you that I can meet any and all of you and your pet’s expectations. I have been actively involved with animals of all shapes and sizes ever since I can remember and it has proved to be one of my happiest hobbies. I will care for your pet like my own and cannot wait for the memories we will make together! Since I am a stay at home mom, I usually have more time to carve out of my day to care for your pets! However, the most available times I am able to care for your pets include weekday evenings (M, W, F) and weekends! I will follow any instructions that you need me to tend to or complete. I respect people’s personal space/homes and will not cause any disruption going to or from your home.


“Howard was absolutely superb ! He took great care of Stewie while I was out of the country for 3 weeks. He would send me daily photos of Stewie, and was very interested in my dog's behavior and development. He did his best to make sure that I was comfortable and at ease while I was away and for that I am very thankful. I would HIGHLY recommend Howard as your dog sitter, trust me, he will not disappoint!”
