“Kristen is wonderful! She went out of her way to come meet my dog before ever taking on/accepting being a dog walker. She is now my go-to dog walker and I can’t imagine leaving him in anyone else’s hands! She’s very communicative and professional.”

“Dhanica has been just amazing and the sweetest person to come and help me walk Chico everyday! She was just a pleasure and very punctual and always gave me a complete report every time! She has been an absolute joy and will work with her every time I need help with my doggo Chico”

“I really needed support with a good walk for my dog and they absolutely came through! Very communicative, and clearly incredible with dogs. He was very tired after a long walk!”

“Kendall has been fantastic with Boston. We booked with her on short notice but she is so responsive, it wasn’t a problem. She wanted to hear about any concerns with Boston so she could make sure to address any issues. She adjusts where they go based on how Boston is doing. Kendall is also very observant! She’ll let us know if she noticed something a little off. Lots of peace of mind knowing Boston is in good hands. We’ll definitely be repeat customers!”

“Yasmine is great! She’s very communicative and is quick with responses. She’s great with dogs who can be reactive (like mine) and knows how to handle any situation. I highly recommend her to take care of any pup :)”

“Bryce took great care of my dog and went above and beyond to ensure all of my dog’s needs were met. Communicating with Bryce was very easy and he gave me updates to assure me that my dog was in good hands.”

About: As a lifelong dog lover and responsible pet caretaker, I’m here to make walks the best part of your pup’s day. Whether it's a quick potty break or a long adventure, I’ll treat your dog like family — with lots of love, attention, and tail-wagging fun! I’m reliable, communicative, and always ready for a walk, rain or shine. Let’s get those paws moving! I am currently spending my summer in Oak Park without a full time job so I am ready for a walk at almost any time! I will make sure your dog has a great time and is well taken care of. I will leave them with full water bowl and anything else you might want.
About: I can cover basic commands, housebreaking, and socialization, ensuring a solid foundation for their future behavior. I am comfortable with pets that require special medical attention. I have no current job during the week so I was looking for a job that I could do for a while that was fun and I could put passion into. Freely Space Happily Looking to give the pet a comfortable area and the owner a trustworthy employer who’s best interest is in the pet while they are away.
About: I've loved animals and had a childhood dog, Chubby (a suspected spitz mix). But as a grad student who can't stay in the same place forever, I don't have the stability to have my own dog these days. I would love to help others take care of their babies! I am very patient and love taking walks. During the summer, I'll be working part time teaching Korean in the middle of the day. I am available in the early morning, late afternoon, and evenings Mondays through Thursday, and all day most Fridays and weekends. I am very mindful of pet safety--my cat is indoors only and he's never escaped or gotten lost (except for a 30-second adventure when he was a kitten), and I'm very patient with dogs on leashes and won't let them pull or run off.
About: I bring a fresh, devoted perspective to pet sitting, caring for hyperactive, senior, sibling, and loud dogs with patience, love, and genuine passion unmatched by lifelong dog owners. With classes only on Tuesdays and Thursdays, I have plenty of free time to dedicate to your pups! The rest of my week is wide open, giving me the flexibility to provide dogs with attentive, loving care. I care for pets in their own homes with love and reliability, having dog sat while owners were out of town, always remaining respectful and responsible toward their property. Save & Continue
About: I have walked and dog sat dogs for the last four years. I have walked dogs and stayed at houses for my family, friends and others. I am currently a college student, so my summer is pretty free. I walk my own dog every morning so it would be easy to pick up another dog! I live in town so I have a fenced yard. I also have a kennel if needed. I have a dog who is very friendly.
“Taylor was very good with my dog and was super helpful when I had a sudden schedule change during the week. I really appreciated her picking up the walks when my usual walker was out of town.”

About: I have cared for my elderly dog for 8 years and I absolutely love all animals! I also have job experience caring for children, making me a responsible and trustworthy sitter. As a university student, I am available part-time around classes Monday-Thursday. For the weekends, I would be happy to discuss times to plan around events! I will make sure your pets remain safe and comfortable while you’re away. While sticking close to their routine, I will respect your space and keep everything tidy.
About: I have grown up with pets in my home my whole life. I am a cat and dog lover equally. I have experience with walking, feeding, administering medication, puppy and senior care. My schedule is wide open right now, so I can be super flexible with your pet’s needs! I’m available weekdays, weekends, mornings, afternoons, and evenings — basically whenever works best for you and your pet. Taking your pet for a walk will be fun for both me and your dog, but I will always put your pet’s safety first. Care is my #1 priority!
About: I have watched and cared for my neighbors' dogs, cats and other small pets since I was 16. Petsitting is my favorite and most rewarding job. I have taken care of senior dogs as well as young puppies. I have also taken care of senior cats and kittens. I love cuddling with cats. My favorite thing to do while dog sitting is playing fetch. I am currently in college full time and living off campus. On Saturdays and Sundays I don't have class so your furbaby would get my full attention on weekends. All days besides Wednesday I have only one class, so they wouldn't be left alone for more than 3 hours. I can also attend most of my classes on zoom so I have the ability to work remotely. In my apartment I live with two pet friendly roommates, so your pet would get lots of human attention. My apartment has 4 bedrooms, a large main living area and large balcony so there is lots of space for zoomies/indoor play. I live on the second floor so there is stairs and an elevator. There is also a courtyard inside the building where I will walk dogs if it’s over 95 degrees outside. A lot of other college students live in my complex so there is always friendly people outside to meet while on a walk. If your dog is not friendly with strangers I can keep them away from other people. If you wish to have your pet crated when left alone I can do that.
About: My whole life, I’ve never not had a pet in the house! Growing up, I had 4 cats and a dog, and once I moved off to college I decided to adopt a kitty of my own. Since then, I’ve added another cat to the family and even spend a few weeks fostering a dog. Needless to say, I love animals and have experience with cats and dogs of all sizes and ages. I can administer medicine, adapt to individual play styles, take dogs for long walks, clean litter boxes, and ensure as much comfort and happiness for your kiddo as possible! I am currently a student in my final year of school. I take online classes, so my schedule is extremely flexible! I have a car, bike, and easy access to the train and bus! When it comes to being in others homes, I understand the trust it takes to not only allow care of your pet to someone else, but also to allow that person into their living space. I respect privacy 110%, and will never go into anywhere I shouldn’t. As for my home, I live in a walking friendly apartment community. There are several fenced in grassy areas for dogs, and plenty of places to walk. Cats will have plenty of places in my apartment to explore, as well as access to a wide variety of toys!
About: Caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life. My dog Laila, who was truly my best friend, recently passed away, and home just hasn’t felt the same without her. I know how much pets mean to their families, and I treat every animal like they're my own. My sister is a Rover sitter, and spending time with the dogs she cares for has made me fall in love with this work even more. I love building trust and relationships with every pet I meet, making sure they feel safe, loved, and completely at home, whether it's for a quick visit or an overnight stay. I have experience with dogs with all kinds of personalities, from playful to shy, and I’m always patient, loving, and full of energy to keep your pets happy and cared for! I’m currently home from college for the summer, staying with my parents. I have a part-time job as a cheer camp instructor, but outside of that, I have plenty of free time to dedicate to caring for pets. During the school year, I cheer at ASU, but right now my schedule is super flexible, and I’m excited to spend that extra time giving your pets the love and attention they deserve. We have a spacious home and backyard where pets can play safely and comfortably. If your pet needs medication, I’m experienced and confident in administering it—having cared for my own dog through many health challenges. I make sure every pet gets plenty of playtime, love, and attention in a calm, secure environment where they can feel right at hom
About: Ive had pets as long as I can remember and have always loved animals. Ive had dogs, cats, birds and more. I can't wait to help others by taking care of their beloved animals. I am currently working a full time job Monday through Friday, with weekends off. The weekends are typically for running errands and sitting at home doing homework, as I attend college online. I will feed, bathe, walk and play with the animals whenever they need and do whatever service that is necessary for caring for the animals.
