About: I've taken care of pets since I was young. I've always had a dog growing up! After moving to Sycamore in 1998, I moved into a farm. We had almost every farm animal, as well as cats. I've had all of my dogs from puppies until the end. Come summer, I am free all the time! I work at the school district! Just weekends are softball. My oldest is on a traveling team! I will follow what is needed to be done with your pet! Treat your pet like my own fur baby. Always lots of love and treats (if that’s okay with the treats lol)
“Shauna and Peter took such wonderful care of our dog Gracie. Not only did they follow our instructions for her basic care, such as food, medications, daily walks and play, but the whole family gave her so much love and attention. She is a very affectionate dog and they treated her as if she was their own. We were on a long trip overseas and Shauna’s daily communication and photos gave us such a peace of mind that our sweet pup was doing just fine. We feel so blessed to have found them and can not thank them enough for the perfect care they gave Gracie! We highly recommend Shauna and Peter to care for your dog. They are the best!”
“Robynn is just amazing! She is very sweet and cared for my dog so well. Robynn sends many updates and really wants the pets to be comfortable. My family COMPLETELY trusts her in caring for our fur baby. Thank you Robynn!!!”
“I could not be happier that I chose Maria and her family to take care of my Ellie girl for the weekend. Maria sent lots of great pictures and updates. Ellie loved her stay and I would absolutely recommend Maria to anyone!”
“She is so kind and patient with our dog! We knew she was the right one as soon as I saw the house skies in the pictures as we have a Husky. We would highly recommend her!”
“Jill was fantastic! My dog Rue was well cared for over a long weekend. Jill sent many pictures and updates and made clear how much she loved Rue throughout the stay. I’ll definitely have her watch Rue again if I go out of town in the future. Thanks so much, Jill!”
“Since I contacted her she was very responsive and was willing to take care of Leo as a last minute trip option. She took care of my dog Saturday and Sunday and her and her husband were very communicative. Sending pictures and videos of my dog. I was very happy he got the attention he needed. I will definitely book with them again for a next time 🤗”
“Mera was incredible with my dog Winston. He is an older dog and Mera went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable and well taken care of. I am very thankful to Rover for connecting me with Mera!”
“Once again, Jessica and her family are the perfect hosts for my Bear. This is the third time he has stayed with him and I can tell he is getting the very best care I could possibly ask for. She’s great about sending pictures and letting me know how things are going. I can’t say enough about Jessica!”
“Mary was the perfect choice for our dog Max and I am so glad I found her! She had a large yard for him to roam around in and she gave him so much love and attention. She also provided us with daily updates which the kids loved! I felt comfortable leaving him with her and was confident he was well taken care of and being spoiled. I will definitely use her the next time we need someone to care for Max!”
“Jessica & Luis A. was phenomenal. I just moved to Illinois and got a puppy from New York and she helped me while I went on vacation for 5 days. She send pictures and videos everyday. My puppy was so happy with her. She was caring and loving. I will definitely be making her my main sitter from now on. I highly recommend her!”
“First time EVER finding a sitter for our dog that we did not know personally. Our pup Dozer has fear aggression and does not do well with kids. We were worried we wouldn’t be able to find someone to care for him when we are away but Cheryl and Jim pulled through! Dozer relaxed after a few hours and seemed to be the good boy he is. Zero issues and zero calls! He was spoiled while we were away and came home in perfect condition. My husband and I are excited that we found someone to watch our baby that we can fully trust! We will definitely have these two watch Dozer again! 100/10 HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Thank you so much for easing our anxiety and for providing a safe space for Dozer.”
“Melanie was amazing!!! She sent me lots of pictures and videos of my little guy and kept me fully updated!! He looked so happy in all of his pics and videos!! She is great at communicating and super accommodating!! She took great care of my pup! I will definitely be using Melanie again!! I Highly recommend her!! Thank you, Melanie!! Lucky was so happy with you!!”
“Dorene took excellent care of our dog, Roxy. She was patient and attentive to her needs. Her communication was consistent. It was reassuring to know Roxy was in great hands while we were gone.”
“Barb, was absolutely wonderful. Very accommodating and communicative. Our dog is a picky eater and she even went as far as feeding him out of her hand to make sure he was eating enough. We couldn’t have asked for a better care taker for our fur baby. Will definitely book again!”
About: I’ve been walking dogs for over 21 years. I’ve cared everything; birds, fish, reptiles, dogs, cats and rodents! I’m on time and always happy to see your little family members! I am currently looking for a full pet care schedule! I prefer to stick with a pet once we meet to build a strong bond. I will take care of your pets per your request! Just let me know! I also have two medium size super friendly dogs and two cats. If boarding is something you need we have over an acre of property.
“Kristine and her daughter did a wonderful job taking care of our golden retriever. He seemed very happy and content when we picked him up. He takes meds for seizure control and they were able to administer this with no issues. Plus- when I picked him up they had brushed him and had him looking so handsome !”
“Wonderful experience for both us and our dog. She was kind and welcoming making our girl feel right at home. She also was a wonderful communicator. Her picture updates and videos made me feel at ease while we were out of town. I cannot say enough wonderful things about Geraldene!! Her care and compassion for our Luna was top notch!! Highly recommend!”
“Carolyn could not have been more professional, caring or accommodating. First time Rover user and I think I struck gold. If I had to choose between Carolyn's services and a traditional bordering service, I'd choose Carolyn every time. I hope to use her services in the future.”
