⸻ 5-Star Review for Lisa – Our Amazing Dog Sitter! We recently used a pet-sitting service for the very first time while we were away on vacation, and we couldn’t be more thrilled with the experience—thanks to Lisa! She watched our dogs, Sasha and Malia, from Friday through Sunday afternoon, and she went above and beyond in every way. Lisa not only fed and walked them on schedule, but she also took the initiative to clean their food bowls after each meal and took care of several thoughtful details we didn’t even think to ask for. It was clear from the moment we returned that Sasha and Malia felt loved and cared for—they absolutely adored her! It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they had someone kind and attentive to talk to and keep them company while we were away. This was our first time using this service, and because of Lisa, it certainly won’t be our last. We’re looking forward to booking with her again in the future. Thank you so much, Lisa, for your care, your attention to detail, and the genuine love you showed our girls. We truly appreciate all of your hard work!

Kaylyn was fantastic! She was very communicative and ensured Chloe was enjoying her stay while getting in a good mix of cuddles and exercise. I cannot recommend her enough to take care of your fur babies!

Katharine was amazing and very patient with Isla. Isla can be wary with strangers, so it was comforting to know time to adjust to a new person was provided! Communication was also excellent throughout the visit.

About: I have owned dogs my entire life. Aside from my own pets, I went to Wilco and did their Vet Assistant class my senior year. I took care of a variety of animals, including ferrets and bearded dragons. I loved health care, but would like to go into Radiology once I complete the prerequisites. I am currently a pharmacy technician in training. I work evenings Sunday-Thursday, so I am perfect for mid-work walks or weekend sittings. If given advance notice, I am able to adjust my schedule. I own 2 dogs, one is a pitbull mix and the other is a husky. I am comfortable with high energy dogs and enjoy long walks. I had a senior dog who passed last year at 15.

About: As a long time dog owner, I can care for dogs of all different ages-or just visit with them for a bit! I am experienced with my own pets and am sure I can care for yours in the same way. I’m currently in a hybrid setting at my job so I work from home Monday and Friday and am flexible throughout any point of the day at that time. Tuesday-Thursday I get home at 6:30 or earlier so I can take your dog on a little afternoon stroll as well. I have a partially fenced yard and am able to crate dogs if needed. I can keep them company at your home as well if needed!

Angela took such great care of our 2 cats. She made sure to give them interactive play, cleaned their boxes and even got some brushing in. She was very communicative and asked so many questions to make sure she knew exactly what our cats needs were.

About: I've taken care of pets (dogs, cats, hamsters, birds) since I was young. Friends and family have been relying on me to care for their pets. I also have a cat of my own that I adopted. I'm currently work from home so I can keep your pups and kitties company while you're away. I'm not available to board as my home is a single cat home. I can keep your pets company and walk your dog during the time you're gone. I love to play with dogs and cats and can keep them entertained easily.

About: Asst in training service dogs, have had dogs for the past 25 years. I have also had cats but do not have one currently. I watch my neighbors' animals, to include a bunny and other small animals as well. I currently work from home and am able to work from anywhere with my laptop if I am needed to stay at your home. This also gives me the availability to leave for breaks to take your animal out for small walks or potty breaks during the day. I have always had 3 dogs at a time, but I just lost my last fur baby this month and am looking to care for other animals until I am ready to get a new baby. I care for my animals as family, not pets, they sleep with me and my husband and go with us when we are able to take them with me. I provide more of a motherly service and will care for your fur baby as if they were my own. To include playing and snuggling.

About: I have experience caring for both dogs and cats. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, and playing with animals. I enjoy spending time with all kinds of pets whether that be a playful kitten or laid back senior dog. I make sure to remain attentive and ensure every pet is happy and safe while in my care. I’d love the chance to meet your pet soon! As a college student, I do classes in the morning and do gig work in the evenings. I could drop in and check on your pet anytime in the afternoon and evening. In your home when dropping in on your pet, I will provide you with anything you may need. Whether that be feeding them, letting them out, or even just sitting on the couch with them.

About: I am available for drop in visits or walks in the Shorewood and Minooka area. I am also available to watch your dog(s) in my home. I have a fully fenced yard, a very friendly Boxer mix, and plenty of time to spend with your fur baby. I have been around dogs all my life. I recently had to let my Saint Bernard cross the Rainbow Bridge just shy of his 13th birthday. I volunteer and foster dogs/puppies from a few local rescues. I am very responsible and will treat your dog like I would my own. I love dogs of all sizes and all personalities. I can send you updates and pictures of my visits with your dog so you can see they are well taken care of. I am a teacher so I am off for the summer. I work one mile from home so can come home during my lunch time if your dog needs a potty break. My yard is fully fenced, my dog has free roam of my house and so will yours. I do have crates here in case your dog is used to being crated.

During the meet and greet, Blue took an instant liking to Kisha which was great to see. Kisha sent us pictures for every visit and we felt very confident that Blue was in good hands. This was our first time using a service like this and Kisha made the experience a positive one and we look forward to using Kisha in the future.

It was our first time using Rover and we have a cat that needs daily medication. Kayla kept us informed of how our pets were doing on a daily basis and we could see from our cameras our cats looked forward to seeing her! I have no reservations about hiring Kayla again.

Katie was wonderful. She took great care of our cat Kali! She spent time making sure she felt loved. She provided her with food, water, treats, grooming and even her twice a day asthma inhaler treatments. I highly recommend Katie and will use her again without hesitation.

Lexi did a great job checking on my dog. She was prompt to both the meet and greet and the doggy check-in. She was very friendly, and I could tell she loved animals. The “Rover Card” was a nice perk. It was great seeing my dog having fun and also receiving a summary of the visit. Lexi was great, and I would definitely book her again.

Thank you Lisa — we needed someone to let out our German Shepherd dog. Lisa came over. Met our dog and took excellent care of her. I would highly recommend using Lisa in the future. We will definitely be using her going forward as our dog sitter. Thank you for all the last-minute changes with our crazy schedule.

Danielle was so incredible!! We had a meet and greet first and it was clear that the pets were comfortable and she really cared about their needs and routines. She sent so many pictures (and got some really good shots!) and lots of updates. We were so happy to know that the dogs were not only getting fed and let out but also getting play time and snuggles. Our cat also likes to go in the backyard (with supervision) and she did great with him! Would absolutely recommend her and we’re hoping to have her back for our next trip!
