“Haley was very friendly, and kept us well updated each day on how out cat was doing. Gus warmed up to her instantly. We would highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a pet sitter, and look forward to using her again in the future.”

“I am very glad that Manuela helped with my cats during our vacation. Manuela came before my trip to meet Mia and Aska, and then came on all the appointed days. Sent me photos and videos of them playing together. I can recommend Manuela as an excellent nanny for kittens :)”

“Beverly did a fantastic job taking care of our cat! She was attentive with pictures and messages on each visit. She even double checked with us about the cat's food routine to be sure she was giving him enough. Lovely experience with a lovely person!!!”


About: I’ve had the joy of working with dogs of all sizes at the Homewood Adoption Center, where I learned to care for every personality—from playful puppies to wise seniors. I love helping each dog feel safe, happy, and loved, and I bring that same dedication to every pet in my care. I am available to care for pets all week and can adjust my schedule to meet your needs, including overnight stays if required. Your pets’ comfort and happiness are my top priority!

I also give updates and photos so you can feel connected and reassured while you’re away.

“Erin was a great help for us on short notice. She was promptly communicative, reliably on time, followed instructions perfectly, and most importantly treated my bunny with care and affection. Thank you Erin!”

“If you love your pets, you’ll love Coretta! The amount of love she gave to my cats seems like she treated them as her own! She was very informative and gave very detailed follow ups after each visit! I don’t think anyone would disagree that she’s VERY good at what she does. We will be looking for her every time we need a sitter! Thank you again Coretta and we hope to see you again!”

“Evan did a wonderful job watching our cat for a long weekend. He was communicative and responsive, which made us feel comfortable and confident that our cat was in great hands.”

About: I Love animals. Especially dogs and cats. I have over 20 years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all kind. Your pet will be staying in my home, so they will have the whole house to themselves. I take extra long walks to the park and the beach often. You will never find anyone more invested in your best friend. Every hour of every day is dedicated to caring for your best friend. I am very active. I go to the gym 5 days a week. Working with dogs and cats gives me what we need in order to stay fit and mental stable. I will have your doggies tired at the end of the day!! The doggies and kitties have the entire house to their self. I have a big home with 4 floors. I also have a large yard that is fenced in and totally secure. No one gets in or out unless I decide to.
About: I’ve had my maltipoo since 2020 and have taken care of dogs since then as well. I’m very organized and attentive to your animals needs!

I love having new energy around me at all times :) I have a very safe apartment complex with an enclosed backyard. Lots of toys for them as well to make them feel comfortable! I’m attentive and a very good listener to all of their needs
“T’Wanna was amazing! She went above and beyond to make sure that my cat had plenty of company and lots of pets and cuddles. She communicated well with me each step of the way letting me know how much food he had eaten, she replenished the water in the litter and let me know how he was doing overall. It meant so much that she spent so much genuine time making sure that my cat was comfortable and well cared for during her drop in. I would definitely recommend her and will be booking her again”

About: I have always cared for the cats of my neighbors in Chicago, let alone other cats. Since my young adult years, I always have had cats and have been learning how to care for them from personal experience, reading online, and visiting vets as well as volunteering at shelters in Chicago over the years or supporting fundraisers! I am available nowadays to care for your pet at my home for a short period of time. Or I could visit your home! I am aware of territory adjustments and super careful about health issues. I have experience working with children and understand how important it is to supervise and engage with pets all the time! Also, it is important to pay attention to them in terms of health and behavior and provide a healthy routine of meals and clean litter boxes, among other things.
About: I grew up near a farm and have been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. Within the past 5 years, I’ve started caring for other people’s pets, just as I would my own. I have experience with a variety of sizes and breeds! I am available for both short and long walks and drop-ins on weekday evenings and weekends. If you need a recurring service, take a look at my availability! I am a lover of all pets, young and old, big and small. No matter what your needs, I’m sure I can pamper your pet and treat them how I would treat my own. I am an active listener, extremely adaptable, and always strive to go above and beyond.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - South Shore
Im a first time user of the Rover app and was extremely nervous, to trust someone with my dog! Carmen eased every fear. She extremely patient, compassionate and detailed oriented. Chloe can be a real sour patch, yet she took on the challenge & Chloe loves her now. 10/10 definitely recommend & would book again. THANK YOU So much for a great first experience.

Maya took great care of both my indoor and outdoor cats while I was away. She was in regular communication with me about whether or not the cats were visible during her drop-ins, as well as how open they were to getting some rubs and TLC. She even brought my dumpsters back into my yard on trash day and made sure packages delivered to my home made it safely inside. Maya is a sweetheart and I absolutely plan on having her care for my babies for my next extended out of town trip!
