“Katie and her family were so amazing with our baby dog. She’s like a totally different pup! She doesn’t get upset in the crate, her bitting has dramatically dropped, and she’s much more claim throughout the day. I cannot thank her enough for taking ivy in on short notice and letting her be apart of her family. 10/10 would recommend!”

About: I’ve taken care of my own dogs and other family members dogs for years. I would take them out every hour or so (or when it’s needed) I would feed them on how the owner would want me to feed them if they have a schedule set, I would play fetch with them if they want attention. I’m currently unemployed so I have all of the time to help with others with their pets and I do not mind going by the schedule you make if it’s needed:) I have a fenced back yard but it’s opened for the driveway, I have two chihuahuas but they’re a harmless, I have a son that has a disability that is careful around dogs.
“They treated our fur baby like one of their own. Very responsive and provided updates on his day. I found them as our normal sitter was unavailable, but they will definitely see Leo again!”
“Clarissa was so amazing with rotini! She went above and beyond to make sure he was eating well and having a great time. Her dog, Rue, was the perfect playmate for my dog. Would rebook with her anytime!”

“Our 2 cats, Phoebe and Finn loved having Katharine stop in to take care of them. They were given treats, brushed, and fed. They had their pictures taken and sent to us. They even asked when we were leaving again -- just kidding about that! Katharine sent us notes daily about how they were doing. Made my trip more relaxing knowing they were well taken care of. Will definitely have Katharine here again. Thank you, Katie!”
“Sarah was the best sitter we could hope for for our very first pet sitter! She communicated throughout the day, everyday with pictures and updates. She really cares for your pet as if it were her own! I definitely recommend her!!!”
About: I’ve been caring for cats for years and truly love getting to know every cat’s unique personality. Whether your cat is playful, shy, cuddly, or independent, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I provide reliable care, clean litter boxes, feeding, playtime, cuddles, and plenty of updates/photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your cat is in good hands!
“Kaylyn was fantastic! She was very communicative and ensured Chloe was enjoying her stay while getting in a good mix of cuddles and exercise. I cannot recommend her enough to take care of your fur babies!”
“Amazing sitters, we're truly grateful to have found them for our senior cat who's on daily meds. Sumi & Sohail show excellent & genuine care for our furry kid. Great communication, detailed reports for each visit. We cannot ask for more. They truly made us at ease while away. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and currently have three large dogs, so I’m comfortable caring for pets of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I have experience helping raise and train puppies, including one who recently turned one year old, and I’m comfortable with everything from feeding schedules and administering medications to walks, playtime, treats, and cleaning up after pets. As a student-athlete home for the summer, I’d love to spend my extra time caring for animals and giving them the attention they deserve. My love for pets started at a young age—I even ran a homemade dog treat business to help earn money for my first two puppies! Since then, I’ve always enjoyed spending time with animals and treating them like family. Pet care fits very naturally into my weekly routine. I currently work part-time, which gives me flexibility throughout the day to provide walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, medication administration, and companionship. As a student-athlete, I’m used to managing a busy schedule and staying organized, so I always make sure pets receive reliable and consistent care. Between work shifts and practices, I have plenty of availability to give pets the attention, exercise, and love they deserve. I believe pets are most comfortable in their own environment, so I focus on providing care in my clients’ homes. I follow each pet’s normal routine, including feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and lots of love and attention. My goal is to keep pets happy, comfortable, and stress-free while their owners are away. I do not offer boarding in my home, but I’m happy to provide drop-in visits, walks, and in-home care tailored to your pet’s needs.
“Amanda did a great job with our cats while we were away! She updated us with photos, while she spent time with them and that totally put my two daughters at ease. She also brought some large packages in from our front porch, which was a total help. We'd definitely book with Amanda again in the future. Thanks so much!”
“Laniece was a clear and consistent communicator. She watched my 2 cats for one day. One of my cats is *very* shy. I made it clear to her that I didn't expect her to even see the cats, just to do the chores, because I've had sitters who never set sights on him. Even so, she spent the time to coax both cats out and get them to spend some time with her. This is nothing short of a miracle, I have friends who have never seen him. I sincerely appreciated her commitment to my cats, her clear communication, and her availability on short notice. Will definitely book again.”
“Angela took such great care of our 2 cats. She made sure to give them interactive play, cleaned their boxes and even got some brushing in. She was very communicative and asked so many questions to make sure she knew exactly what our cats needs were.”
About: I have owned dogs my entire life. Aside from my own pets, I went to Wilco and did their Vet Assistant class my senior year. I took care of a variety of animals, including ferrets and bearded dragons. I loved health care, but would like to go into Radiology once I complete the prerequisites. I am currently a pharmacy technician in training. I work evenings Sunday-Thursday, so I am perfect for mid-work walks or weekend sittings. If given advance notice, I am able to adjust my schedule. I own 2 dogs, one is a pitbull mix and the other is a husky. I am comfortable with high energy dogs and enjoy long walks. I had a senior dog who passed last year at 15.
About: I've had cats all my life, taking care of them as if they were my kids! I even spent a couple years volunteering at a local shelter to help their kitties feel less anxious and more loved! This is how I will take care of your cats, too! Less stress more purrs!
About: Ive grown up with pets my whole life from puppies to seniors. This makes me versatile in taking care of any pet age, even training. I love any and all breeds of dogs with no preference. I also have had multiple dogs at the same time my whole life so caring for multiple pets at a time is no problem. I am currently home from college for the summer so my schedule is almost always open. I work at a restaurant in Plainfield a few nights a week for a couple hours otherwise I’m always available for your fur babies. I am very flexible in your personal rules of watching your pet. Crating, walking, or even supervised outside time are all things I respect along with anything else you specifically need for your pet. I have also had large and small dogs. I would love for your pet to stay in routine so I will try to follow that as closely as possible
“Alysa was absolutely fantastic with our cats! She was very thorough, asked questions when needed, the litter box is clean and our kitties are happy and healthy upon our return. We are so very happy we chose her and will definitely be using her in the future!”
About: I have successfully mothered and nurtured many cats, dogs, bunnies, rats , turtles, fish and birds. Loving each and every one has been one of most rewarding experiences of my life.

“It was our first time using Rover and we have a cat that needs daily medication. Kayla kept us informed of how our pets were doing on a daily basis and we could see from our cameras our cats looked forward to seeing her! I have no reservations about hiring Kayla again.”

“It was my first time taking my Rocky to Jennifer. Jennifer was wonderful with Rocky and kept me posted throughout the day of how he was doing. Rocky was able to play with the other pups and sure got his exercise for the day. He was one pooped pup when he came home. We have Jennifer booked for a week for our vacation in August. I feel like Rocky is getting a vacation too! Lots of fun and socialization.”
About: I was raised on a farm and absolutely love animals (see my pictures)! As a nurse, I’m passionate about life and caring for others. My passion for raising and taking care of animals started young and grew immensely with age… hence why we've connected here! I’m gentle, punctual, and truly enjoy dog sitting. I’m skilled in bathing, walking, feeding, administering medications and caring for a wide variety of dogs and cats. I love all breeds and promise to welcome your pet in the same way he/she welcomes you home! Health appropriate bones, balls, and toys always make for a good time. Others would say I’m trustworthy, reliable, and dedicated. I truly believe that through service and by “paying it forward” the world is a better place! Because I have pets of my own, I understand the importance socialization and safety. Although I do work at a hospital, in my spare time I decided to incorporate something I’m passionate about into my everyday routine… dog walking/sitting! As an avid people and animal lover, you can count on me to safely care for your pet. Safety is my number one priority. I always ensure that collars and leashes fit appropriately, fences and gates are closed, crates are secure and that your pup/cat is out of the way of any hazards. I can easily identify signs of heatstroke and I always ensure that your pups paws don’t touch hot pavement in the summer months. Water is also a must after walks! I am transparent and believe that it is best to follow the owners requests so I will work with you to develop a routine that fits the needs of your family and your pet. I also ask that if you are leaving a spare key, it has “do not duplicate” engraved in it. Lastly, I will always ask permission.
About: I love all the furry babies, my own fur babies are treated like my children. I work from home, so your baby would have my attention through the entire day. We would have time to play, walk, snuggle, and bond. I have a large fenced in back yard. Your baby would feel at home and comfortable in my home, they would have full access to roam and wander. They also would be allowed on the couches / beds for snuggles and belly rubs. I work from home, giving me the flexibility to ensure your pup has plenty of time and attention. I have an 11 year old son who is just as much as an animal lover. I have a large fenced in back yard. My foxy girl loves to get her zoomies out back there, and loves playing fetch. My son will love on, play, and engage with your pup also.
“Denise was honestly incredible! It was pretty short notice and some people wouldn’t watch Caesar because he’s a pitbull, she rearranged her schedule to watch him. She gave me multiple updates and pictures throughout. When I came to pick him up, she gave me a painting he made (with the help of peanut butter and plastic wrap I assume)! 1000% recommend”
“I was so happy to find someone that gave my pup all the love & attention!! Enzo looked so happy & I know he had a great time. Ana was great with communication & caring for my dog, we will definitely keep in her in mind for the future. Thank you again!!”
About: I love animals and always owned a pet. I currently have a domestic short-haired cat and a Great Pyrenees and Beagle. I enjoy providing care for any furry friend. I have experience caring for pets with anxiety, health issues, and special needs. I currently work from home. I am able to provide your pup with attention and go out for walks. I spend much time at forest preserves so your pup will enjoy walks with me. I live across a park, so your dog will always be supervised and on a leash when being outside. We only dog sit one dog at time to ensure we are providing all with the proper care.
“LissaCate and family provided excellent care for my dog Buck. He was excited to go to her every morning and it was evident that he got lots of attention and exercise while there. I would absolutely trust her with Buck again!”
About: Hi! I’m Nicole, and I work remotely as a graphic designer while pet-sitting! I’d love to hang out with your baby or take them on walks or just keep them company! The details: I’m currently open for a recurring lunch time walk/drop-in spot! I do have meetings throughout the day and work full-time, so it’s u likely I can accommodate any other weekday times. Weeknights and weekends are open though! I am open to sitting for all types of animals! I love to be outdoors, so walking and playing with your pet will be a treat for both me and them. I’m also cool with a little snuggle bug watching tv on the couch! I’ve walked and spent time with dogs of all shapes and sizes through volunteer work at a shelter in SK. You can count on me to love your pet as my own while I’m with them. I have no problem giving medication or any other special needs your dog might have. - I require meet & greets. - All pets must be up to date on vaccines. - All pets must be in generally good health. - I am not able to offer constant care during daytime hours on weekdays. (Additional costs will be applied for constant care). - Please let me know all about their personality, quirks, and habits! House Sitting notes: Every sitter uses this service a bit differently. For my services, house sitting = staying overnight in your home and caring for the pet between 5pm - 8am and 1 drop in around noon. Any additional needs require additional drop-in costs because I am not able to stay in your home the entire day (I must care for my own pet and another client daily). Don’t hesitate to ask questions if you have any! I'd love to hang out with your pet and work out a schedule! I do work full-time but have some flexibility in my hours. I currently have an opening for lunchtime walks or drop-ins, and I’m always open to doggy daycare. Weeknights and weekends are open! My home has a fenced in yard with lots of room to run and play, our house is small but we live in a quiet neighborhood with lots of good places to walk and sniff!

About: I have a lot of experience with dogs as both an owner and as a foster home/parent. I recently had a foster dog that was used as a breeding Mom dog for 4 years and was terrified when we got her. I have pet sat at my home for family, friends, and neighbor's dogs. I would go multiple times a week to my neighbor's house to take her dogs out and play with them while Mom & Dad were working late. I have also volunteered with humane societies over the years, even flew down to FL to volunteer with a rescue after a hurricane. I have experience transporting foster dogs to their new homes with a rescue group out of Missouri where we adopted our foster fail from. I am an Independent Photographer so I only work when I have sessions or editing to do, leaving me with lots of time to dedicate to the pups 😀 The dogs wellbeing is my top concern always! If I am coming to walk or play with your dog while you're at work I will make sure your family member is happy and content before leaving.

“Pauline was my first experience on Rover with my 10 week old lab puppy. She was very quick to respond, gave frequent updates, and was patient and kind when my puppy had an accident. She really helped me feel like my puppy was safe and in good hands. She even sent home extra treats with my puppy! Would absolutely work with Pauline again - was a great first Rover experience!”
About: I have been a dog owner for 40 years and also have a degree in animal science from Illinpis State University. I have cared for friends and families dogs, so I have decided to venture into caring for dogs whose owners are in need. I am retired and am very flexible. Daytime care and walking will be easy to schedule. Overnight stays are also no problem. Tuesday daytime care is usually unavailable due to my volunteer commitment on that day. I have a 2year old female Shepherd mix who is pretty spoiled. She is crated in our absence. She spends lots of time outside if the weather suits her. We also take her for walks around the neighborhood.
“Taylor was the best. She watched our boys on Christmas Eve. They had lots of fun playing with friends and we got frequent updates and pictures throughout the day. Highly recommend Taylor.”

About: I love animals and have a pretty flexible schedule for boarding, care-taking, or walking services. I love being outdoors but am also a home body at heart, which is why boarding is very fun for me. I’m a teacher, so summers and breaks during the year are great times I can commit a lot of for pet care. I also get off work earlier than most, so I would be around for early afternoon walks. I’m home most weekends which is when boarding would work best for me. I don’t have any other pets at my home so there would not be any issues with other animals. I am also very trustworthy if needed to be at a client’s home.
“Awesome person. Came over to do a meet before just to make sure I was comfortable and everything went smooth. I appreciate her communication and felt safe with her in my house”
About: Hi nice to meet you all! I started doing Rover because I use to work in vet med and have missed getting to work with animals and their owners. I love working with animals and greatly enjoy the time I spend with them. I do work full time so I do Rover on my off days and before/after my full time job. I have experience caring for not only dogs and cats but small pets also(this includes parrots, guinea pigs, rabbits, ferrets, chinchillas, hamsters, rats, mice, gerbils). I am always available to answer questions to pet parents about how their pet is doing in my care, and willing to accommodate additional care instructions as well. While your pet is in my care you will receive a Rover card from each visit/stay with photos provided. I am trained in pet CPR and have experience with senior pets and any medication needs that your pet may have. I am also experienced with shy pets as well and will always allow your pet to take their time to get to know me and warm up to me. My number one goal is that your pet is comfortable, happy and healthy while in my care. I do require a meet and greet to ensure that your pet is comfortable with me and a good fit as well. House Sitting. I have recently reopened up house sitting services in your home. I am available each day to ensure your pets and home are taken care. walks if asked for by the owner(no additional charge for these!), play time, food and water checks and any medications administered if needed. Small Pet Care I also have experience caring for small pets and birds if you need your small furry or feathered ones looked after while you are away. I have experience with birds, guinea pigs, rabbits, ferrets, chinchillas, hamsters, rats and mice. Care for these guys will include food and water checks, attention and if needed a spot clean of their cage as well, along with any medications needed if these are required. Boarding/Day Care I have just opened up boarding and daycare(daycare only on select days when I am not working my full time job). Boarding requirements include any dog under 35lbs due to having cats that can be skittish around larger dogs. Your dog must get along with cats and small animals and be okay with being home alone for a few hours a day. Up to date on vaccines and a trial visit will be required to ensure your dog is a good fit to stay with us. Dog Training. I am currently finishing a course through Good Pup offered by Rover and am so excited to be offering training to existing and new clients once I complete my certification! I do work full time but I do have availability before and after work to care for pets and am available on my off days as well for pet care. I will always ensure to respect your home and ensure it is in the same condition as when you left your pet in my care.
“Haily was absolutely wonderful, and I can’t recommend her enough! She took care of my 14 year old Maltese Poodle, Sisco, for a week while I was in Colorado, walking him twice a day and making sure he was fed and well cared for. Normally, I have family watch him because he tends to get anxious when I’m away, so I was a little nervous leaving him with someone new. Haily completely put my mind at ease. She was so kind and patient with him, and it was obvious from all the updates, photos, and detailed commentary that she genuinely cared about him. Seeing how happy and comfortable Sisco looked in every picture meant so much to me. It made being away from him so much easier, and I knew he was in great hands. Thank you, Haily, for taking such amazing care of my little guy. I would absolutely book with you again!”

I’m especially comfortable with high-energy dogs that need more than a quick bathroom walk, as well as senior pets who benefit from patience, consistency, and calm handling. My goal is simple: keep your pet’s routine stable and send clear updates so you can feel confident while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I currently have full-time flexibility. I’m available mornings, midday, evenings, and weekends for walks, drop-ins, or overnight care. I structure my day around your pet’s needs to ensure consistent attention and reliable service. When caring for pets in your home, I follow your instructions carefully and maintain your pet’s normal routine for feeding, exercise, and medications. I prioritize safety, secure leashing, proper entry and exit protocols, and close supervision at all times. Your home is treated with respect, and your pet’s well-being is my first priority.
About: I have taken care of dogs and all kinds of pets since I was a child, for friends and family! I have experience with many different breeds of dogs ranging in different sizes as well as many different ages.

I have a fenced in yard with lots of room to play your pets, as for in your own home I can play fetch in back yards as well as take your dogs on walks!

About: I’ve overnight babysat puppies and dogs and have fostered cats and kittens with the lovely organization Anticruelty. I’m currently taking care of my three fur babies. I’ve personally trained my dog Koda basic and more advanced commands, (sit, stay, paw, bow, speak, wait, high five, to potty on a potty pad and outside, etc.) I’m on the road to success with my other dog Zulu. He has achieved commands like sit, stay, roll over, paw, down, being potty trained, etc. Additionally, I’ve worked with my cat Darla on not getting on countertops, no curtain climbing, no couch scratching and being gentle with humans around her! I currently work a part time job as a swim instructor as well as attending school as a senior. Weekends work best for me but weekdays are doable! If you’re willing to work with what i’ve got, i’m willing to work with you and compromise! I strongly believe in respect and security. No matter what, I will treat you and your fur baby with the respect that I would want my own to be treated with. I would never purposely violate the privacy you’ve entrusted me with. Besides that, I have a fenced in yard and two very social dogs to keep your fur baby company!
“Marissa as able to fit my Thaddeus in last min and was willing to work with me. He enjoyed spending time there. She kept me posted. Her whole family was incredibly kind. I highly recommend. I plan to use their service when I’m back in the area.”
