Highly-rated overnight sitters - Riverside Heights
“Maxine was amazing. She kept me informed on how my pup was doing the entire stay and took him on tons of adventures. She truly loved on my pup and he came home very happy and rested. Will definitely book again :)”
“My Nala loves to go and play with her pal, Himeko! I’m so glad I found these guys on here before summer time, she really seems to like being here! These guys have a great yard, along with a kiddie pool for the dogs to cool off in. Nala seems to come back pooped and happy.”
“I cannot express how grateful we are that we found Cece, she is always our #1 choice if she is available. I get updates everyday on how Cash is doing and he has such a great time when he goes over there. He stayed about a week this time and she even gave him a bath which I was so thankful for after getting home from a long trip. I cannot recommend her enough, thank you Cece!”
“Our fur babies were happy and well cared for in Kristin’s home. They received lots of love which was demonstrated in many photos. We highly recommend Kristin.”
“Kory was a wonderful dog sitter for the second time! Both were long stays around 3 weeks and my pup did wonderfully. I got pictures and updates. The communication was consistent. My pup can be picky with other dogs but Kory made sure we had a meet and greet - I was happy my pup made some friends! Would recommend.”
“Baxter has a great time with Herman! We got pictures and updates during his stay. We felt very comfortable leaving Baxter with Herman and had a very pleasant drop off and pick up!”
“I received many photos showing that Jax was happy, entertained, and relaxed. I liked that he was with other dogs, and that Erving was present most of the time with them. Very happy with the service.”
“I was very lucky to find Sofia to watch my puppy Ruby. I could tell from the pictures she sent that Ruby was being taken care of quite well and that they had a lot of fun together. Normally when Ruby is with someone else in a strange environment, she doesn't eat normally, but judging by what was left over, she pretty much ate normally. I will definately ask Sofia to watch Ruby the next time I go on vacation and need a dog sitter.”
“Once again Reggie came home a very happy doggie! Nicole is always very responsive to my texts and I love the pictures that she sends me of him throughout his stay! I have no worries that Reggie is in great hands while I'm away!”
“Tucker had an amazing time while staying with Margarita and Carissa. We are pretty sure that he had as good vacation as we did. Their son was Tucker‘s best playmate. We would highly recommend Margarita and Clarissa for anyone in the area needing a safe and loving home for their pet. Thank you again for the love and care.❤️. Bonus, they have an amazing backyard!”
“Elena and her family took such great care of my big anxious boys. Daily pictures and updates made the time apart easier to handle. My boys enjoyed exploring the big back yard and the space was kept clean. Will seek services with Elena in the future.”
“Kiran was wonderful. She is very communicative and makes sure that she has all of the needs for your little loved one. Plenty of pictures. Toby was very happy. Will use again. Thanks”
“Always perfect! The petsitters are wonderful, and our dogs had a great time. They were well cared for. They were so happy and probably didn’t want to come home. 😀”
“Absolutely wonderful! We did a meet and greet with her a day prior and she took care of our Lucy! She sent pictures and she looked like she felt right at home! Will definitely use her again!”
“Perfect! Very communicative, send updates and pictures everyday and perfect location, our dog had separation anxiety at the beginning but she managed to calm her down. Highly recommend”
“Rachel was great and took awesome care of my dog! She works from home so she was there at all times and even took him out to the dog park. If you’re leaving your pet with Rachel you are in good hands!”
“Virginia was a WONDERFUL sitter—if I could give more than 5 stars I would! ⭐️ This was my first time using Rover, but won’t be my last! I expressed my anxieties of being away from Bij on a work trip, and she eased them all. I got regular and often updates—she truly treated and loved Bij as if he were her own. And her fur baby is just as precious—Cozy and Bijou became best friends! From letting him sleep in a bigger bed, to sharing all Cozy’s toys, to regular walks and playing all the fetch he could handle—Bijou was on a vacation! Virginia is kind and communicative, and I will happily be booking with her again! ❤️”
“Samuel took wonderful care of Coco. Communication was great from the start, and he kept me updated with photos and videos, which I really appreciated. His home and location were perfect and made drop-off easy, and Coco was comfortable right away. She’ll definitely be back—she already misses him!”

About: Hi! I'm Jade, and I'd love to care for your pet like they're one of my own. Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I share my home with my sweet dog, Zoey, and three cats, so I know every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level. My goal is to make your dog feel safe, relaxed, and loved while you're away. I work for myself from home, so I'm home throughout the day and able to give dogs plenty of attention, companionship, potty breaks, and supervision. My husband and our 13 year old son also live here, so ours is a family home. If your dog is uncomfortable around men or children, just let me know beforehand so we can determine whether we'd be a good fit. Your pet's comfort and safety always come first. I only accept dogs for boarding and daycare, as it allows me to provide a calm, low-stress environment. I intentionally keep things personal so your dog isn't just another booking - they'll receive lots of love, playtime, and cuddle time (if they're into that!) *** Drop-Off & Pick-Up Hours To help keep things calm and predictable for both my family and your pup, my standard drop-off and pick-up hours are 8:00 AM - 6:00 PM. If you need something outside of those hours, just ask before booking. I'm happy to accommodate when my schedule allows, but I appreciate keeping arrival times within our agreed window whenever possible. In addition to dog boarding and daycare, I also offer dog walks and drop-in visits for both dogs and cats. During walks and drop-ins, I can provide exercise, potty breaks, fresh food and water, playtime, affection, and care based on your pet’s usual routine. I’ll also send photo updates so you know how they’re doing while you’re away. I’m especially happy to provide cat care through drop-in visits. I’ll handle feeding, fresh water, litter box care, playtime, and companionship while respecting your cat’s personality and comfort level. Whether they want constant attention or prefer to observe me suspiciously from across the room, I’m happy to follow their lead. I'm dependable, communicative, and happy to send regular photo updates so you can relax knowing your pup is in good hands. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone, and I don't take that responsibility lightly. I look forward to meeting you and your best friend! My schedule is generally flexible with advanced notice, and I do my best to accommodate my clients whenever possible. My standard drop-off and pick-up hours are 8:00 AM–6:00 PM to help keep everyone's day running smoothly. If you need an earlier or later time, just ask before booking and I'll do my best to make it work if I'm available. My home is a calm, pet-friendly environment where dogs receive attentive care, structure, and lots of affection. I offer in-home boarding and make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and included in our daily routine. My cats and dog are both dog-friendly but my cats prefer no other cats. I accept bookings, preferably with advanced notice so I can give each pet my full attention.

“Nigel carried my "baby" home the other day because she couldn't make it back on her own. He let me know and checked back in with between visits to see if she was ok. I knew Nigel was special since he began helping me with my dog but he went above and beyond, carrying a 65 pound pit bull home instead of dragging her and using harsh commands. I'm so glad I found him! He is truly a gift.”
About: I have been taking care of animals, mainly dogs, since I was 11 years old. I have always loved looking after pets, whether it be my family or friends, or the neighbor across the street and I will love taking care of yours as well. I currently have a very flexible schedule, so I can easily check on your pets and make sure they are happy and healthy whenever needed. My pets' daily routines are a part of my own daily routine. I will make sure your pets are taken care of as if they were my own. I will make sure that they are happy and cared for and exercised as needed.
About: Started dog-walking/-sitting in my pre-teens. Owned 3 dogs during this time (two part-Lab and one Great Dane. All rescues). Kept a small, growing business which consisted of walking or being paid to stay a week with a dog. This continued until early 20s. Have since continued to sit family's, friends', and family friends' dogs over the years. No matter the size or breed I always manage to find a friend in new dogs. Epileptic, old, and those requiring medicine are not a problem. Whether or not they adhere to commands isn't a problem. I've had very obedient dogs and known many that ran the house. Either way, we'll get along fine. I'm never out of the house for long. Maybe 4 hours max, but rarely more than 2. Our old lady used to need a lot of attention, so I'm used to life revolving around a dog upon entry, before leaving, and taking a break every 30 minutes to give some love. Fenced in yard. We have a designated spot in a public walkway for food and water but can move as needs depict. Doors to back rooms are shut when not being used. Nothing heavy or sharp that can fall or come in contact with your pet. We had a 17.5 year old so the house was made as safe as possible for her.
“Serena was amazing! She is great at communicating (she responded to my changes and details quickly) and rebel loves her. It is so nice to have someone I can trust when I am unavailable to be there for my dog. She was always on time even when I made changes to the location/details. I would absolutely recommend her and will be using her again in the future for Rebel. (: Thank you Serena!”
“Celine has walked our golden doodle a few times now and she has been extremely kind and accommodating. She is always flexible if plans have changed and our doodle loves her! Will continue to use her for walks ☺️”

If your dog is uncomfortable around men or children, just let me know beforehand so we can determine whether we'd be a good fit. Your pet's comfort and safety always come first. I only accept dogs for boarding and daycare, as it allows me to provide a calm, low-stress environment. I intentionally keep things personal so your dog isn't just another booking - they'll receive lots of love, playtime, and cuddle time (if they're into that!) *** Drop-Off & Pick-Up Hours To help keep things calm and predictable for both my family and your pup, my standard drop-off and pick-up hours are 8:00 AM - 6:00 PM. If you need something outside of those hours, just ask before booking. I'm happy to accommodate when my schedule allows, but I appreciate keeping arrival times within our agreed window whenever possible. In addition to dog boarding and daycare, I also offer dog walks and drop-in visits for both dogs and cats. During walks and drop-ins, I can provide exercise, potty breaks, fresh food and water, playtime, affection, and care based on your pet’s usual routine. I’ll also send photo updates so you know how they’re doing while you’re away. I’m especially happy to provide cat care through drop-in visits. I’ll handle feeding, fresh water, litter box care, playtime, and companionship while respecting your cat’s personality and comfort level. Whether they want constant attention or prefer to observe me suspiciously from across the room, I’m happy to follow their lead. I'm dependable, communicative, and happy to send regular photo updates so you can relax knowing your pup is in good hands. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone, and I don't take that responsibility lightly. I look forward to meeting you and your best friend! My schedule is generally flexible with advanced notice, and I do my best to accommodate my clients whenever possible. My standard drop-off and pick-up hours are 8:00 AM–6:00 PM to help keep everyone's day running smoothly. If you need an earlier or later time, just ask before booking and I'll do my best to make it work if I'm available. My home is a calm, pet-friendly environment where dogs receive attentive care, structure, and lots of affection. I offer in-home boarding and make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and included in our daily routine. My cats and dog are both dog-friendly but my cats prefer no other cats. I accept bookings, preferably with advanced notice so I can give each pet my full attention.
“This is our third time booking dog sitting with Sam, and he always does a fantastic job keeping us updated with pictures of Waffles. He cares for her like she’s one of his own dogs. She comes home happy and tired after a stay with Sam, Moose, and Harper! Could not recommend Sam enough.”
“She was awesome. Very kind and patient with my elderly dog. Kept me posted with pictures and messages. We will see her next month for another boarding! Thanks Ada, we appreciated the care very much!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for decades and will treat your babies like the royalty they are. My home is their home when they are here. I’m home all day with my three babies, so I have the capacity to frequently take your kiddos on walks & playtime out in the fenced yard I have three dogs on my own that are friendly after getting acclimated to other visiting dogs. I have a completely separate room if needed for solitude while boarding.
“Very happy with Debra and family! Got our baby back happy and normal (not the stressed mess she used to be coming back from boarding facilities). They took her on walks, we got pictures every day and great communication on how she was doing. Would go back to them again for future sitting needs.”
“Grace was a wonderful sitter for our boy, Gumbo! She kept us updated every day, which gave us so much peace of mind. Gumbo clearly loved being around her and her family—he came home completely tuckered out and slept like he had clocked in for a full shift. We’re so grateful for how well she cared for him!”
“Christian came in when I needed it most — during Christmas he said he was able to walk the dogs. From the time I dropped off my 2 pups he was receptive and provided me updates. I could tell he was a dog person and I was worry free despite it being my first time with him as a pet sitter. I will continue to use him in the future as he makes the process easy and doesn’t have any other pets/kids, which was important to fit the needs of my dogs. 5 stars”
