“Xavier is reliable punctual and fantastic as always. He is detailed oriented and follows instructions well. I will book him again and I would absolutely trust him with my dog. I'm glad that I can have someone as reliable as him with my dog. We have communications so you can rest easy leaving him with your fur babies.”

About: Growing up, I’ve always had a ton of animals in the house. Since I was a teenager, I have house-sat/animal-sat for family members and family friends. If I take care of your pet, they have my attention and of course love <3 I work fully remote, so I have tons of flexibility in my schedule, including availability during the weekday, evenings, and on weekends! Happy to hang out all day with your pet. Your pet’s safety is always my priority. As someone with pets myself, I understand the stress that occurs when you need someone else to take care of them for a time. That’s why I do everything in my power to reassure owners that their pet is in great hands and that we’ll have fun together! For example, if I’m taking your dog for a walk I will be incredibly mindful of my surroundings, including traffic and other people, so that your dog remains safe. If I’m staying overnight to watch your pet, I will be considerate of belongings in the property and happily play with the pet(s) in the home :)

“ariel was great with my kitty! her reviews were thorough and lots of great, cute pictures. super reliable and trustworthy- definitely recommend!”

About: I am a retired woman with plenty of extra love to give. I’ve babysat and taken care of numerous dogs and cats. I have a very quiet demeanor, which animals seem to appreciate. I know how important your pet is to you, it’s an extension of your family. I will often send videos or pictures of your pet when we are together. I am retired so my day is pretty much open. I have a very flexible schedule. Petra family members I will take care of yours as an extension of my own family For the taking care of pets in my home, or at the owners home, whatever the rules and regulations are per the homeowner are the rules that I go by

“It was the first time we called on Stuart to walk Clare, not just once, but twice in a day, and we’re glad we did. Stuart was conscientious from the start, offering to stop by the day before we needed him to meet us and Clare. We highly recommend him!”

About: I've cared for animals my whole life, including those with medical needs or on specialized diets. I'm used to the dirty work and want your pet to feel extra cared of! I'm used to friendly pets or those who need more space. I can handle it all and will communicate all updates to you quickly. I have early and evening availability until mid-August and then open availability. I'm happy to do early early mornings or later nights, and have a vehicle so can get wherever you need. I've been a house-sitter for years and respect your space immensely! I'm a trusted caregiver in my day-job (all my jobs have required background and CORI checks) and I communicate any and all changes, so you never feel left out of the loop.

“Grace is amazing. She has gotten along great with out reactive cattle dog mix. She has been able to accommodate our ever changing schedule almost 100%. Extremely personal and would recommend to anyone.”

About: Pet Care Experience: I’ve been raised with dogs my entire life, and I also have three years of hands-on experience at a doggie boarding and daycare facility. I’m comfortable working with dogs of all types, from reactive dogs to high-energy pups. I understand the importance of positive reinforcement and am experienced in meeting the dietary and exercise needs of dogs. What Sets Me Apart: What truly sets me apart is my genuine compassion for animals. I offer a personalized experience, whether it’s hiking to burn off energy, providing calm and comfort for reactive dogs, or ensuring senior pups get the special care they need. My expertise in stimulating high-energy dogs and my knowledge of their specific needs makes me the perfect choice for your dog’s next adventure or stay! Pet care is an integral part of my daily routine. I make sure to schedule time for walks, play sessions, and one-on-one attention for each animal I care for. Whether it’s getting up early to take a dog on a hike or spending extra time with a shy cat to build trust, I always prioritize their needs. I’m flexible and able to adapt to different schedules, ensuring pets get the love and care they deserve, no matter what else is going on in my day. In my home, I create a comfortable, pet-friendly environment where animals can thrive. For dogs, that means daily hikes, interactive play sessions, and plenty of cuddle time. I make sure each dog gets the exercise and attention they need to feel happy and secure. For cats, I adjust the atmosphere to their personality—whether it’s quiet, cozy space for a shy cat or active playtime to keep a kitten entertained. I’m also experienced with dietary needs, allergies, and administering medications if necessary. When caring for pets in your home, I treat it as an extension of my own. I make sure their routines are kept intact, from feeding schedules to favorite activities. I believe in providing consistent care that allows them to feel safe and comfortable, just as they would in their own home. Whether it’s a dog who loves to hike or a cat who needs extra TLC, I’m committed to offering personalized care tailored to each pet’s needs. I’m also skilled at handling reactive animals, training, and ensuring each pet’s emotional well-being is prioritized. My years of experience with both kittens and senior cats, combined with my ability to train and manage high-energy dogs, makes me stand out. I’m not just a pet sitter—I’m a pet caretaker who goes above and beyond to ensure your pets are happy, healthy, and loved while you’re away.

About: I've had a dog in my life for the major majority of it. I've had 2 Shitzus, a German Shephard and an Akita. Quite the range. I traveled across the country with an Akita and that was such a great experience. I am very patient by nature and will care for you furry friend and give them all my attention and love. I have a somewhat flexible schedule. There are 3, sometimes 4 days a week where I’d be away for 6-7 hours. I like to be as transparent on everything. I’m not concerned about the dog having an accident in the house, it’s more of making sure they won’t be overly stressed out or anxious at that amount of time. I have a very secure fenced in yard that your pet will enjoy. There is a park directly across the street as well and I will also walk your dog around the Elmhurst neighborhood. I have a modest sized home with hardwood floors. Your pup is allowed on the furniture if its ok with you. A tired dog is a happy dog and I plan to play with your dog inside and outside the home. Your dog(s) or cat(s) will be my top priority. Other than work a few days a week which is stated above I’d be spending plenty of time playing and relaxing with your fur babies. I have a fenced in yard and live in a safe neighborhood. I have outdoor camera security system as well. I will take great care of your pet.

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life: dogs, cats, bunnies, chickens, you name it! My smallest dog ever was a chihuahua and my largest is a cane corso. My home was also a foster home and we had many litters of puppies and kittens come through on their way to their forever families! I work full time so I am primarily available on weekends, but I do work from home once a week if you need a last minute walk or check in on a pet! I am happy to take your pet outside, feed them, play with them, go for a walk or to get some exercise! I am unable to take them in my home but happy to work with you to fit you and your pet’s needs.

“Shawn was great, making drop in visits for our two cats over several days. We came home to everything spotlessly clean, feeding dishes washed and litter boxes scooped. She communicated well and asked lots of questions in our meet and greet. I highly recommend Shawn!”

“Honestly Heidi was the best Rover sitter we have had. She was responsive, loving to the pets, followed our instructions and truly did what she said what she'd do. She kept us in great contact with our pets through pix and reports continuously. She took care of them when I was at a funeral and mostly out of touch. Her proactive reports gave me nothing but a carefree day which I really needed. I would highly recommend Heidi!”

Michelle D.

“Megan was a very kind and caring sitter for my cat tess. She followed all my requests without failure. If you need a cat sitter. Shes your girl!”

Patti S.

“Maricela was great with Hootie! She communicated with me when she was coming and going and in the end I came back to a happy, healthy dog. Will definitely book her again if I need help watching him.”
