“Patricia is absolutely wonderful! Always on time. Very patient. Great communicator—even sends photos of our guys with updates about the visits. They just love her! The peace of mind she provides is immeasurable.”

“Taylor has been very helpful. She has come and walked our very energetic dog on a weekly basis and I have had 0 difficulties getting ahold of her or getting feedback about how everything went. She is very sweet and a great choice for your pet!”

“Fantastic! I shared with Tracy that my dog gets very anxious when new people come to the house. She was very understanding and agreed to meet outside the house and go on a walk for our Meet and Greet. My dog felt very comfortable with Tracy and had no problems when Tracy walked her by herself the next time. I am extremely happy.”

“Just booked Victoria for a second time after she walked my dog last week! She has been great with her and dealt with complications like accidents and surprise kitty visitors very well. Thanks, Victoria!”

About: As an independent contractor, I make my own schedule. This allows me to operate on a very flexible calendar. In addition to being the go-to care taker for the pets in my circle, I also have a lifestyle that allows for me to go the extra mile and hangout longer, play more, and go for longer walks! I currently make my own schedule. So pet care fits in tremendously. I work as a freelance film and commercial laborer. Being in charge of my calendar allows me to schedule accordingly to take care of your pet! Having two cats of my own, while I can't house animals at my own residence, I am very familiar with the needs of pets. Playtime, treats, head scratches, and the like. I love every animal deeply and with a great respect. I treat every space with the utmost dignity and try to keep as small of a footprint as possible when entering someone's home. I have been house sitting, dog/cat watching for many years now. I look forward to ensuring you have an enjoyable, trustworthy experience when working with me.
About: I previously owned a dog walking and pet-sitting business for over four years, and I absolutely loved it! I walked dogs that ranged from 1-16 years of age, and administered oral medication and provided insulin to diabetic dogs. I have also fostered dogs four separate times, ages ranging from 1-6 years. I have 4 years of exotic animal care experience as well! I work from home full time on a very flexible schedule. I can move my daily plans around to fit your needs, and will update my availability to include changes ASAP. There is one other dog and two friendly cats in the home. My partner is experienced in animal husbandry and loves pets just as much as me. We are sure to give them plenty of love, patience, and attention! I can take furry friends on extra walks if requested, and I can send you pictures throughout your pets' stay!

As well as dogs with serious medical issues. I am capable of taking care of dogs of all ages. I am currently in college a couple days a week during the summer and I currently am working a flexible job. Both allow for a lot of downtime. As of right now I only have 1-2 days during the week which are unavailable but other than that I have a lot of free time! I have experience with dogs who have destructive behavior so if your dog needs kenneld or close supervision I am capable. I am someone who pays close attention to my own dogs and when I watch other dogs I try to treat them as my own!

“Michelle was excellent! She walked my two dogs twice in one day and even helped me deal with an unexpected visit from a service technician while she was at my home. She was very responsive and kept me updated on the pups. I highly recommend Michelle and will be booking again!”

About: I've spent over a decade caring for pets professionally across Chicago and Columbus, and honestly, it's one of my favorite things I do. Dogs, cats, big personalities, shy ones, seniors, and pets with medical needs- I've cared for them all, and I bring the same level of attention and consistency to every single visit. As a pet owner myself, I know what it actually feels like to hand your animal over to someone and hope for the best. That's why I communicate proactively, follow your care instructions closely, and treat every pet like they're my own, because I genuinely understand the trust that takes. I offer walks and drop-ins for dogs, and drop-in visits plus harness walks for leash-trained cats. I'm experienced with medications, medical care, mobility challenges, and special needs pets of all kinds. If your pet has a specific routine or requires extra attention, that's not a complication for me — it's just part of the job. I always love a meet-and-greet before the first visit so your pet can see a familiar face on day one. Feel free to reach out with any questions before booking, I'm happy to chat! I'm currently taking a sabbatical from my full-time work to do some personal rearranging in my life. I've always loved animals more than people, so I wanted to get back into caring for other folks fur babies while on my break. Because of this, I have open availability! For me, pet care is like its own personal therapy. I care for my client's pets the same way I care for mine- with undivided attention, structured routine, and love. I want to make sure YOU are comfortable leaving your pet with me, so however you need that environment to look like. I love over communication and detailed care instructions- anything to make you feel that your baby is in safe, capable hands.
Tri-South dog parents share their Rover experiences
Allison and Andrew are absolutely fantastic dog walkers!! They were always on time and happy and ready to walk our excited and energetic mini Bernedoodle Reggie. Reggie loved his walks with them and would stand by the door patiently and a little anxiously every am and pm waiting for his walk with Allison and Andrew ! We were very pleased and will definitely use them again !!!

Karly is THE BEST!!!!! She walks my pup, Fuzzy, every day and takes such good care of her. She has gone above and beyond to help me- Fuz is reactive and takes a good bit to warm up to people, and Karly went out of her way to get to know Fuz, and is amazing at communicating/ returning messages/ reaching out with any questions or concerns. Fuz and I highly HIGHLY recommend!!!

Hannah was absolutely fabulous with my puppy Claire! It was my first time leaving my four month old puppy and I was very nervous but Hannah was incredibly kind and responsible and took such good care of Claire. Claire was happy and comfortable with Hannah, and super tired and satisfied after every walk. 100% would recommend Hannah!
