About: Being an animal lover, I have taken care of all of my own pets and those of friends and family. From guinea pigs, hamsters, birds, fish, cats, and dogs. I have seen the absolute best with pets and will do anything that a pet parent wants for their pet. While I look for a full-time/part-time job, I am available any day of the week, Monday-Friday, 7 am- 6 pm, and Weekends, any time of the day. I am able to come over you house, to be able to care for your pet when it is required. I am unable to at my house since I am in the process of moving. I am comfortable being in your house to ensure your pet is in a familiar area.

“Yesenia is truly an awesome catsitter. I would recommend her if you want to feel secure that your sitter is taking care of your pets and looking after them. I will be booking with her again!”

“Luis is one of the sweetest and most helpful people around, and I feel so happy knowing my two cats are in such good care with him whenever I travel. They love him, and I get so happy when I see the daily pics from Luis of all of them together. When I come home, my girls barely notice me 😂 it’s very cute and we owe that all to Luis’s thoughtfulness and care!”

“Magdalena is the absolute best — my cat Freeway loves when she comes to watch him! She is attentive, sends a ton of pictures, and ensures he and my home is well cared for when she comes by. I would recommend her to anyone.”

“Michael is an excellent dog walker! He communicates efficiently and clearly, and it’s evident that he has a lot of experience with dogs. We reached out to him for dog walking services, and he had no trouble handling our 80 lb dog, even coming into the house to take her for her walks. We’ll definitely be reaching out to him again in the future. Thank you!”

About: I’ve worked with young kids and dogs for years. I babysit and petsit in people’s homes and I have trained my seven year old dog. I also have experience with cats and giving them space while letting them warm up to me. On weekdays I work full-time until 4pm and then I’m all free to play with your pets or feed them. Weekends I’m free all day to properly care for your pets. I have a fenced grass front yard and a 7 year old mini schnauzer if your pet is okay with socializing, but not necessary for house sitting or walking.

About: I have had dogs ever since I was a kid, I had a high energy yellow lab before and now I have 2 pitbull mixes and one of them is deaf. I use to volunteer at PAWS Chicago a few years ago, so I have been trained with reading a dog’s body language, deescalation tactics, and dog safety measures! I currently am focusing on my education which is fully remote via online. So, my schedule is open unless otherwise stated in the calendar. You let me know what your beloved pet schedule is and I will include them into my schedule if I am not already booked. I have had my previous dog rusty since he was a puppy, so I have had first-hand experience with potting training, teaching them how to sit and stay, and have experience with high-energy dogs. I now have 2 pitbulls / mixed breeds. One since a puppy and the other since 2025 when she found us and ran at me from a alleyway. The alleyway dog "Joy" is deaf, so my experience includes dogs with little to no hearing. I will take your dog out on walks and give them all the pets and attention they want. If they want to play fetch outside, I will do that at a local dog park or in the yard, whatever you are most comfortable with.
“Janiyah is by far the best cat sitter I’ve ever booked on Rover, so let me start there. I was so nervous to let someone watch my babies because it was my first time visiting home after moving to Chicago and I didn’t want to leave Chef & Roux behind. Janiyah was super reassuring and wrote detailed rover cards that helped keep me in the loop throughout my trip. At one point my food started to run out for the girls and I had to deliver more to the apartment. She offered to come back to the apartment early so my girls didn’t get too hungry waiting until her next visit. Her compassion and communication skills really stood out to me and I will be rebooking her. Oh wait, I already did! 😆”

About: I’ve taken care of or have had animals since I was a child. Currently I have a cat named Ida who is very sweet & affectionate. I always strive for a 5-star experience, but my top priority will always be the safety of the pets in my care. I chose to refuse a request to take a cat outside without a harness, as the flight risk was far too high. It resulted in a low rating, but I will never compromise an animal's safety. I just graduated with a Master’s of Social Work. Before beginning my career, I’m taking some down time and taking care of animals. This gives me the ability to prioritize your pets needs! My environment is animal friendly. I have a fenced in back yard and live near a park. I have a cat named Ida who is welcoming to new animals inside our home. I allow animals on my bed and furniture.

About: I've taken care of dogs since early childhood, my first dog's name was Macho. I've learned to be responsible, caring and dependable to ensure a loving growth from my pet. I've also been the go - to friend for caring for pets when a coworker decides to go on vacation. Whether your dog needs a quick walk, a little exercise, or some company while you're away, I'm certainly happy to help. I'm currently working part-time, so I have lots of free time over the weekend to offer care for your pet. I'm extremely lenient and if needed can come to a compromise to suit your needs as well! Being the eldest child I have lots of experience in remaining aware of my environments when out in public. I can affirm to you that safety is my utmost priority. Your pet will be treated as my own.

“Monica & Calvin are always great. We trust that they take great care of our two cats, and we get amazing pictures as well! Thanks Monica & Calvin!”


About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats for over 15 years through my own pets and helping care for family and friend’s animals. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, bathing, playtime, and keeping pets on their routines. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely love animals, and I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I currently work part-time, so my schedule is fairly flexible and I have plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. My availability may change as my work schedule changes, but I’ll always communicate my availability clearly and make sure I can commit to the care I agree to provide. I’m happy to work around my schedule when possible and I’m especially flexible on days I’m not working. I treat every client’s home with the same care and respect I would my own. I’ll follow your pet’s usual routine, make sure they’re safe and comfortable, and keep their environment clean and secure. I’m respectful of your space and will always be responsible, attentive, and communicative while you’re away.

About: I have been a dog parent for the last 13 years. I have experience with dogs with disabilities (I live with a three-legged baby, Mabel) and leash-reactive furbabies. As a sitter, I have taken care of all kinds of dogs but prefer a nice temperament if a dog comes to my home so he or she can get along with my own dogs. I am knowledgeable of dog training techniques and are observant of dog behaviors. I work from phone so your dog will rarely be alone. They will have consistent use of the yard throughout the day (under my supervision, never alone) and will have playmates in my two female dogs, Iris and Mabel (both very playful, mid-energy, mild temperament, zero dog/toy/foodnaggression, spayed, up-to-date on all vaccines). I work remotely so I am usually home. My two dogs are super friendly and love to play. I am also able to separate dogs if needed with dog gates while still allowing for all dogs to be comfortable! I love dogs so it is very important to me to provide everything they need while their parents are away. I live with two dogs myself and they are my life, and I will treat your dog in the same way. As a dog mom who has used sitters in the past, I understand the importance of respecting my client's home and only spend time on site as needed to take care of your angel. My goal is to be the person I would trust to take care of my own doggies (and my expectations of sitters are *pretty* high). Lastly, I am very detailed in following rules and care instructions, no matter how irrational your friends tell you they are. My care instructions for my own dogs is 4 pages long; I understand. Please note that the only caveat to the above is if any rules are abusive toward your dog (shock collars, prong collars, hitting, pushing, choking, underfeeding, other); I will not accept the booking.

“Danna was amazing. She took great care of our cats and sent plenty of pictures. We appreciate how reliable she is. While we only have cats, she also loves dogs. Would definitely recommend get to anyone in the area.”

About: Hi! My name is Judy and I have been pet sitting for several years and enjoy spending time with furry friends. I have a very friendly cat who is great with dogs (but I can keep them separate (if requested). I am a caretaker and have flexible hours, so I will be able to care, walk, and cuddle your pet as needed. My home will be a calm and relaxing space for your fur baby! *Home is located near train station. I currently have open availability but please give me two days notice. Happy to visit your pet at your home or host them in mine. Two level home with a small outdoor space (fenced) for sun-bathing and fresh air. I do have a cat that enjoys cat or dog company, so I can keep pets together or separate them based on your pets openness. Harrison park is a short 6 minute walk ideal for daily strolls.
About: Experience with large/XL breeds, bully breeds, working/high energy breeds, reactive and senior pups. Happy to provide your pup with structured and/or lax sniff walkies. Expert in freesbie, fetchies & tug- I have a working breed at home so very familiar with their requirements. Experience with senior pups, familiar with medication distributing, slow/wagon walkies, and all the extra lovings required. I currently work a full time job with plenty of flexibility which includes working from home. I am able to provide walkies/check-ins Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. Weekends can be arranged upon requests ahead of time. At my house, walks and play time are typically structured and we always have a paw clean up routine when returning home. When someone is caring for my pet, I love to get photo updates as I’m sure all pet parents would. I have a good amount of experience with reactive/nervous pups and especially on walks so I’m aware of how to handle triggers. Attentive to outside factors- other dogs garbage/food on the floor, etc
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a very young. I have experience pet sitting neighbors, family, and friends pups and cats. I’m attentive and will respond all questions, happily providing updates throughout your booking. I have owned two Great Danes and two miniature doxxies; I love dogs in all sizes! I’m also experienced with taking care of cats and love them as well :) I’m currently working part time from home, choosing my own hours so I have the ability to prioritize your pet’s needs. Pet care is something I’m truly passionate about and I promise to care for your pet as if it were my own. I have a mile long walking trail along my apartment property and a fenced in dog park on property. I can easily crate your dog if necessary and have a crate large enough for a Great Dane. I will happily abide by your instructions as you know your pet best!

This is our second time booking with Leila and she continued to be a great caretaker for our fur baby while we were away. She did a great job and her check ins were always one of the highlights of our days! I would recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for their pet.

Janiyah was great with my large pup! My dog had a wonderful time with her! She was on time, communicative and took a bunch of pictures! She updated me how he did on his walk and how he was when they got back. Will definitely have her come back to care for my pup!

Maribel is consistently reliable and trustworthy and always keeps a close eye on our knuckleheads when we go on trips. We are continuously grateful that she makes time for us! Each time she comes around, our little crew loves her even more and it gives us peace of mind

Had a great meet and greet ahead of a weekend sit! Hunter took the time to listen to the different need-to-know things about my dogs and their routine, took notes, asked great questions and is just generally a very pleasant person and patient with dogs which gave me a lot of confidence in booking with him.

Calvin was an amazing pet sitter and we will absolutely book with them again. He was very responsive, asked specific questions about our pets that showed his experience, and was incredibly easy to work with. It was clear that Calvin took the time to get to know our two cats and their personalities. His summaries and the pictures made us feel so much better about leaving for several days in a row. I highly recommend Monica and Calvin to anyone who wants a worry free vacation away from their fur children.
