“I was apprehensive leaving my rescue dog for the very first time in the nearly one year we've been together, but Phyllis and Greg were absolutely wonderful hosts and made the entire experience stress-free. They were warm and friendly and provided a calm environment. Great communication. They'll be my dog's new home-away-from-home.”
“This is my first time using the Rover App and Christina made it an amazing experience. We met prior to boarding so I was very comfortable with seeing the space our puppy was going to stay. This was a great opportunity for us to meet her sweet pup Brydie. Both Dogs hit off from the start and I knew this was a good opportunity for our pup, Marshmallow to have a friend to play with while we are out of town. We had fears about Marshmallow running off but Christina took good care of her. She sent us pictures while we were on vacation on was very easy to work with. Her whole family was great and I knew our baby was in good hands. I highly recommend Christina as she is kind and companionate and you know she will treat your pup as her own. Thanks for such a great experience.”
“Heather ended up taking care of Dempsey an extra day after our flight back to Chicago was cancelled. She was quick to respond and helped make a stressful situation a little easier to manage. She took great care of Demps while we were out of town. Thank you!!”
“Linda and family are wonderful! We really enjoy our time away knowing our Lulu is being so well taken care of. She is happy and energetic when we drop her off and when we pick her up. 💜💜”
“Barbara was great as always. Barbara was able to make some last minute accommodations for us as a result of a last minute change with our schedule. We know our Bailey is in good hands with Barbara when we travel and gladly use her services again.”
“Suzy is fabulous. She asked all the right questions ahead of time, sent messages, photos, and videos throughout my dog’s stay, and has a perfect set-up for pet sitting.”
“Thank you so much for taking care of my Lulu, especially under the heartbreaking circumstances. You were very caring and compassionate. We really appreciated that. Thank you for sending us daily updates of our fur baby and for responding quickly when we had to modify our booking due to the passing of our other loving fur baby. Thaaaank you Susseth!”
“Shirley has taken care of Ripley several times, and she has formed a genuine relationship with our little boy. The photos she sends every day as well as her comments show that Ripley enjoys staying with her. We have full trust and confidence in Shirley as the best person for Ripley when we are out of town. She cares for him and his well-being, physically and emotionally. Thank you, Shirley! Dagmar and Mohsin”
“Sarah was excellent! She sent us photos and updates of our dog Gus while we were out of the country for two weeks. She was understanding and able to care for our senior dog with special needs. Would highly recommend!”
“Wayne was excellent! Very organized and professional with my dogs and his own. I received pics and videos every morning! Very satisfied with his communication and care for my doggie!”
“Matt and family were incredibly great to my pet, Peanut. Mine is a super nervous and shy cockapoo mix who is on anti-anxiety medication. The family was welcoming and understanding. They followed all our recommendations to keep peanut comfy and even gave him a soft fur blanket to make him feel home. They took him out for plenty of walks even during those freezing days. Bless their heart! They shared plenty of pictures and kept us updated about peanut. It was nice to see my peanut hanging out with their pets pepper and peanut. They are wonderful people and an amazing family that truly loves dogs!”
“Tamara is amazing! She picked up Luna for us and even dropped her off before we came back from out of town. Luna had an amazing time playing with Tamara dogs. She has a huge backyard for dogs to play and she loves Luna like she is her own. She even left us some treats for Luna. I recommend Tamara for any services with your fur babies.”
“Michelle and her family took excellent care of my nervous pup. She went above and beyond making him comfortable, giving him lots of walks, and even gave him a bath when he needed it. Would definitely book again!”
“Mike and Joanna were absolutely amazing! I needed last-minute care for my dog, and they responded almost instantly. From the start, they were friendly, professional, and incredibly accommodating. They took such great care of my dog and made the whole experience completely stress-free for me. It was clear that my dog was comfortable and well cared for the entire time. What really surprised me was that they even sent my dog home with free gifts — such a thoughtful and unexpected gesture, especially for such a short stay! I can’t recommend Mike and Joanna enough. If I could give them 10 stars, I absolutely would. Thank you both for going above and beyond!”
“Angelina was amazing with our senior dog! She watched our dog for four days while we took a quick vacation and Angelina sent fantastic photos throughout the trip. She gave her belly rubs and comforted her through thunderstorms. It was such a relief knowing our dog was comfortable and well cared for while we were away. I will definitely be reaching out to Angelina again for our next vacation!”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog received from Ashley! From the start, her communication was clear, thoughtful, and reassuring — I felt totally at ease leaving my pup in her hands. She was so organized and clearly experienced, and it showed in how smoothly everything went. I could tell my boy was well looked after and loved while I was away. I’m really grateful and wouldn’t hesitate to book her again!”
“Elizabeth was very friendly, responded quickly, and kept me updated with texts and pictures of my pups. She took them on frequent walks and they greatly enjoyed their stay!”
“Hank had an amazing time with Melissa and her beautiful family! This was our first tine EVER to leave Hank anywhere, aside from a couple of stays back at the breeder where he was born. Hank will absolutely be seeing a lot more of Melissa, and in fact, we already have his next stay booked! Melissa updated us daily with quick notes to let us know what Hank was up to and reassure us that all was well. Hank came back to us noticeably relaxed and super happy!”
“I have never felt more at ease leaving my baby bentley in someone else's care. Kim went above and beyond to make sure my pet happy and safe while I was away. I appreciated the daily updates and pictures that were sent to me, it really made me feel connected to my pet even though I was far away. I will definitely be using their services again in the future and I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet sitter." Thank you so much kim”
“This is the third time we have used Jill and Nick and Niko had a great time! They have fabulous communication and send lots of pictures and Niko is well taken care of! We will definitely book with them again!”

“Olivia did a great job checking in on my kitty Ruby while we were gone. Very grateful for her flexibility & ability to manage Ruby’s difficult behavior in the wake of our absence. Thank you so much!!”
“Thank you for checking in on our little guys! Sorry they kept pretty much out of sight while you were in the house. They came to us traumatized and very shy. They still seem shy around people other than us. Thanks for the pics you sent and also for rescuing our freezer from a complete meltdown!”
“Ann was so great with our kitten Cosmo while we were away on a 12 day vacation. This is a trip we had scheduled long before we ever knew we’d be welcoming Cosmo into our family, and so we were a bit anxious about leaving her. Ann was so sweet with her, made sure she got plenty of attention and playtime. Cosmo is very social and needed that level of interaction, which Ann provided twice a day for us. Ann was always punctual, communicative, and quick to respond to any notes I sent while we were away. She took care of all her food, water, and litter needs too. Cosmo loved seeing her at every visit and would run to the door as soon as she arrived to greet her. I highly recommend Ann and will definitely be rebooking her for our next trip. Thank you, Ann, for taking such good care of our fur baby!”
“second time requesting sam to babysit my rabbit and she never fails to impress me. she cleaned the cage everyday and hand fed my rabbit. i will definitely book again in the future! thank you so much!”
“Stephanie was fantastic! She was flexible with the schedule and so good with our boys! She sent great photos and updates; it really set our minds at ease knowing she’d be there to take care of their daily needs. The cats were in great spirits when we got back and I know they were happy to have her check in on them while we were away. 10/10 would recommend 🙌🏻”
About: I grew up with animals and currently don’t have any of my own. I’m hoping to fill this gap by pet-sitting for others and taking care of your four-legged family members as my own! I am a full-time therapist at a private practice so my schedule is not typical. I primarily work late afternoons to evenings for short shifts so I am home during the day. I even have Mondays completely off. I will ensure that your pet is able to get their energy out early in the day, so by the evening they are ready to rest, relax, and be loved on. I have a large fenced in yard and already go on daily 1 mile walks, having a pet to join me would be great for myself and your pet’s energy!
“We felt so comfortable leaving our cats in Sarah’s care! She communicated daily with us and sent pictures. The cats enjoyed her visits (even the reluctant one) and came to greet her when they heard the door open only to find it was us returning home! We will definitely use Sarah again.”
“Melanie was amazing with my 2 kitties. One required oral medication twice a day and she was able to get him to take it even though he squirms! I also really appreciated her detailed updates!”
“John was wonderful with our energetic boxer puppy! I highly recommend him. When we came home, she greeted us with excitement and love as usual. Then she ran around our house looking for her new friend, John!”
“We hired Anna to care for our cat while we were on vacation and she exceeded our expectations! She was very easy to work with, very trustworthy and professional, and very communicative. Anna sent us daily updates with photos, which gave us peace of mind that our cat was in good hands, and she took the time to make our cat felt comfortable while we were away. I would definitely recommend Anna if you are looking for a reliable and experienced pet sitter!”
“We are so lucky to have found Phyllis! Our new cat Morty was comfortable right away with Phyllis and her husband. They have the perfect home for animals, beautiful big windows, looking to a park, with tons of toys and spaces to be comfortable. Morty had a wonderful time and we know he was well cared for!”
“Estefanía took awesome care of my kitty Moji! She was always on time to the drop-in, sent plenty of photos, and very quickly converted my shy scaredy cat to her usual sweet self. Thanks Estefanía!”
About: I'm a pet care provider with over 10 years of professional experience in caring for all kinds of animals. I've owned and cared for cats my whole life. I have worked with a TNR rescue the past few years getting pregnant females and unneutered male cats fixed and cared for. I have experience providing subcutaneous fluids as well as oral and topical medications. I have cared for bottle-fed kittens, ailing senior cats and everything in-between. I always care for every animal as if they are my own and I understand how important it is for them to feel safe, comfortable and loved.
“Angelina was wonderful! She took great care of our elderly cat and had helpful suggestions for some of his ailments. We will definitely have her back again the next time we are traveling.”
“Emily was kind, caring, attentive to detail while house sitting and caring for our two cats. I really appreciated how clean and tidy she left everything. She was very responsive and sent updates and photo/videos regularly for our two girls. She took her time coaxing and helping one of our more nervous cats relax and eat regularly. I loved having peace of mind while traveling. Highly recommend !”
About: I specialize in reliable morning pet care that fits busy work and school schedules. I’m available weekdays from 9 AM to 12 PM, which makes me a great fit for mid-morning dog walks, drop-in visits, and consistent weekly routines. I’m especially good at caring for dogs who need calm, patient handling and a steady routine. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior, comfort, and safety, and I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully. I’m also comfortable with senior pets who may need a slower pace, extra patience, or medication reminders (as directed by the owner). I make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and not rushed during visits. What sets me apart is that I focus on consistency and trust—many pets do best with the same walker on a regular schedule, and I aim to build that long-term relationship with both pets and owners. Pet care fits into my routine during weekday mornings from 9 AM to 12 PM, which is my dedicated availability window. During this time, I focus on dog walking and drop-in visits, making it easy for pet owners who need help while they are at work or busy with the day. I plan my schedule around consistency, so I can provide regular weekly visits for the same pets whenever possible. This helps animals feel more comfortable and keeps their routine stable. I’m organized and reliable, so I make sure I always arrive on time and give each pet full attention without rushing between visits. I provide pet care in my clients’ homes, where pets are most comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. My focus is always on safety, trust, and following each owner’s instructions exactly. I make sure doors, leashes, and gates are secure at all times and never leave pets unattended in unsafe situations. During visits, I supervise pets closely, especially during walks, feeding, or outdoor time. I respect each home and keep everything clean and organized, including cleaning up after pets during walks or drop-in visits. I also pay attention to any changes in behavior or health and will communicate immediately with the owner if something seems off. I understand that trust is very important when entering someone’s home, so I am responsible, respectful, and careful with both the pet and the property.
About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life, got a cat and I learned I love them all! Cuddles, care, fun and active! 🥰 I’m free every weekday after 5, and my weekends are open to all the furry friends! Looking forward to meeting some life long best friends! Really whatever is necessary. Keeping them active, giving them their meds, feeding them, taking them to their vets, just making sure they’re happy and healthy!

“Phyllis and Greg, are wonderful dog sitters! They have a lot of experience with dogs and a beautiful park right out front of their house that the dogs walk in. Sugar loved it there and was so happy to see them at her first return visit.”
“Great experience with Ethel. We came in from out of town to watch a Red Stars game and she took care of our bernedoodle, Frankie. Ethel’s place is a very short way from SeatGeek Stadium and Frankie came back to us happy.”
“Lauren was amazing! She was incredibly accommodating and so welcoming and clearly an attentive and dedicated sitter. We received nice report cards letting us know what a good time our dogs had and pictures too! We will definitely be returning!”

“I got my buddy last June 20th and out of the blue I got a trip out of the state for three days...so hard to decide whom could be the one to provide good care of a vizsla that not even you know enough...well, Mr Ken did that and even went beyond that! My hyper dog was incredible happy with him and even learned some orders that didn't knew before. He sent to me pics and videos while I was out and even gave " Pavarotti " his favorite toy during staying with him. So highly recommend! I do take care of human beings in the oncology and renal unit of Aurora Condell Hospital in Libertyville and believe is easy for me to recognize expertise in a care giver. Ken is a Pro! Ah! This guy is bilingual with Spanish as a second language!”
“Our dog loved her time with Ashley. She felt 100% at home which was very important to me. I tried a pet store doggy day care previously and it was overwhelming to my dog, she was not happy when I picked her up. When I picked her up from Ashley she was so happy and I could tell she had a great day. Ashley sent pictures. was very responsive, and she was very accommodating. I will definitely be booking with her again!!!”
“Elizabeth was very nice, she updated me and sent me a pic of my puppy while she took care of him. It sounded like my pup Oso had a great time with her son Leo. I would book her again.”
About: I've owned and taken care of all kinds of animals since I was a little girl. From birds, to cats and dogs, to horses, and even snakes, big or small I love em all! I'm a travel bartender that works different music festivals all across the country. Now that season has come to a close, I couldn't think of a better way to fill my newly empty schedule than caring for your furry loved ones! I have one cat and one dog who is kennel trained. I walk my dog a minimum of twice a day in my quaint suburban neighborhood and my cat is very good with other animals.
“Michelle is amazing, the absolute best! I felt so comfortable leaving my pup with her. She is extremely patient and accommodating. When I was late on pickup due to my crazy hours as a nurse, she was extremely sweet and flexible. My puppy is young and still learning and she was very adaptable with her. I love that my pup was able to socialize with her little ones which allowed her to have fun while getting some energy out. I’m so happy to have found someone that loved and cared for my girl as much as I do! I highly recommend her and will be using her again for daycare!”
“Jill and Nick have a very nice home. They were gracious to accommodate my last minute booking. Chago enjoyed his stay and we highly recommend them. Will use again when in the area.”
About: $25 for first-time bookers! Your Promo Code: GRANTS01745 Hello! My name is Grant, I'm a writer and creative marketing guy who works remotely, am a huge, season-ticket-holding Cubs fan, gay-friendly, and I absolutely love dogs! I have over 16 years experience caring for my own dogs and I'm one of the best Dog Dads out there! I enjoy dogs more than people sometimes, no offense, LOL, and I've always loved dog walking, pet sitting, reinforcing training techniques as instructed by owners (and teaching my own dogs), and playing with man and woman's best friends! I would love to meet you and your best friend, and I hope to have that opportunity to make your life a little easier by letting me take great care of your little guy or gal! I spend a good 45 minutes with your little lovers, including a walk and playtime, sometimes it’s a full hour—I don’t rush. I am responsible, loving and kind, educated, and will give your dog the best care possible outside of immediate family. For longer "day of" stays, where you may be going out for the day and need me for 8 hours or more of playtime and multiple walks, I will charge minimum wage in Illinois, $15 per hour, so for example an 8-hour day at your home with your pet would be $120. Tell me more about your pet and how I can tailor my time to make them happy and take the very best care that they are accustomed to! I can walk your dog up to 3 times daily and feed the pet according to your requirements. I am used to cooking for my dog, with a small kibble supplement, so if for example, you would love me to cook up some chicken with vegetables like broccoli and cauliflower, I can do that if you have the budget to accommodate purchase of the ingredients! I'm happy to play with your dog inside or outdoors, in your yard, or drive to the nearest park to get some great exercise and Vitamin D! A happy dog is a tired dog, and my plan would be for the dog to have a full day of fun and exercise! If your dog has a pal or two, or a day care you like to drop your dog off at where he or she has some buddies they like to play with, I'm willing to drop your snuggle bear off for a few hours, etc., to break up the monotony of being at home. Whatever I can do to match your dog's usual routine -- let me know -- and we'll make it happen!
“Ingrida did an excellent job! Our puppy was worn out everyday from all the play time. She accommodated us at the last minute and sent pictures throughout the day with status updates. We will be using her again!”

About: I’ve been dog-sitting and house-sitting for clients locally for the past 15 years. I’m an avid animal advocate and treat others pets like my own. In my spare time as a health coach, I enjoy researching pet wellness and nutrition. My clients know when they go out of town that their pet is in good hands. My current schedule and availability for pet-sitting is open, as I complete additional training for health coaching. I also work remote but have flexibility on the weekdays and I’m open on weekends. I provide care for your pets based off the directions and specifications provided. All pets are completely unique and have different needs and levels of care. I enjoy providing extra attention and play to dogs/cats who have anxiety. This can get overlooked when families are busy in their routines, and is so important for pet wellness. I have many friends who have pets with “behavioral issues,” that end up being alleviated with some extra attention, love and play.
About: I’ve been around dogs for years and have always had a natural connection with them. Friends and family often joke that I’m a “dog whisperer” because dogs tend to warm up to me quickly and feel comfortable right away. I’ve also been living with my girlfriend’s dog for over 2 years, helping with daily care, routines, and building trust... to the point where the dog now chooses to sleep with me. I’m calm, patient, and attentive, and I make sure every dog feels safe, relaxed, and cared for. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I treat every dog like they’re my own. I’m also happy to follow any specific routines or instructions you have. I have a flexible daily routine that allows me to be available throughout the day for check ins, walks, and quality time with your pet. I’m able to stop by during typical work hours as well as mornings, evenings, and weekends. I make pet care a priority and ensure your dog gets consistent attention, exercise, and care throughout the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I carefully follow all instructions, including feeding schedules, walks, and any specific routines your pet is used to. I’m attentive and make sure your home and your pet stay safe and secure at all times. I also provide regular updates so you can feel confident everything is going smoothly while you’re away.

“Truly the best! Ken has been working with my high energy, rambunctious pitbull mix every week for walks. He is so patient with our baby, and treats him like family. He even spends a little extra time with Kida after his walks to play with him! From the first moment I met Ken, I could tell that he is very passionate with what he does and has a lot of experience working with all sorts of dogs. He is also great with communication and gives me pictures/videos/updates after each walk. Kida blessed to have a friend like Ken around!”
“Anna walked our dog several times a week over 3 weeks in January while my spouse was out of town and I at work. She was always right on time and took great care of our little girl - putting her jacket on (frigid cold weather they both endured!), wiping her paws, giving her treats - and always ensured the house was secure when she left. I'm so happy that I have a go-to person we can count on! Thanks Anna!!”

We would be so pleased to continue to work with you soon.”

Thank you for sending us daily updates of our fur baby and for responding quickly when we had to modify our booking due to the passing of our other loving fur baby. Thaaaank you Susseth!”
“Matt and family were incredibly great to my pet, Peanut. Mine is a super nervous and shy cockapoo mix who is on anti-anxiety medication. The family was welcoming and understanding. They followed all our recommendations to keep peanut comfy and even gave him a soft fur blanket to make him feel home. They took him out for plenty of walks even during those freezing days. Bless their heart! They shared plenty of pictures and kept us updated about peanut. It was nice to see my peanut hanging out with their pets pepper and peanut. They are wonderful people and an amazing family that truly loves dogs!”
“Tamara is amazing! She picked up Luna for us and even dropped her off before we came back from out of town. Luna had an amazing time playing with Tamara dogs. She has a huge backyard for dogs to play and she loves Luna like she is her own. She even left us some treats for Luna. I recommend Tamara for any services with your fur babies.”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog received from Ashley! From the start, her communication was clear, thoughtful, and reassuring — I felt totally at ease leaving my pup in her hands. She was so organized and clearly experienced, and it showed in how smoothly everything went. I could tell my boy was well looked after and loved while I was away. I’m really grateful and wouldn’t hesitate to book her again!”
“Hank had an amazing time with Melissa and her beautiful family! This was our first tine EVER to leave Hank anywhere, aside from a couple of stays back at the breeder where he was born. Hank will absolutely be seeing a lot more of Melissa, and in fact, we already have his next stay booked! Melissa updated us daily with quick notes to let us know what Hank was up to and reassure us that all was well. Hank came back to us noticeably relaxed and super happy!”
“This is the third time we have used Jill and Nick and Niko had a great time! They have fabulous communication and send lots of pictures and Niko is well taken care of! We will definitely book with them again!”
“Loraine was wonderful! She took such great care of our dog, Straya, and we felt completely at ease while we were away. Loraine sent updates and photos, which was so appreciated and helped us feel connected to our sweet girl. Straya was clearly very happy, comfortable, and well-loved. We would absolutely rebook with Loraine again!”
“Mercedes and her family were the best caregivers I could have asked for! I had to leave my 9 week old puppy for 6 days and I felt so comfortable with the level of care she was provided. I got multiple daily updates and photos of my little Luna playing with Mercedes, her cute pup, and her children. They had all the toys, bedding, and comforts my puppy needed. I loved it and it made me feel very confident with my decision in booking, I was worried she would want to stay there forever. :-) Mercedes and her family were very kind, sweet, genuine people and I’m so grateful for them! I will 100% be booking with Mercedes again. Thank you!”
“We are so happy to have met Katie and will definitely ask her to watch our precious Mia again. Katie is very sweet and caring with our dog, gives her a ton of activities and exercise, and sends lots of updates and pictures. Katie is also a pleasure to work with, as she is very communicative and accommodating. Also, Katie’s canine partner is a very sweet and playful and our dog loved playing with Katie’s dog. Thank you so much!”
“I boarded my German Shepard Darla with Ethel and had a great experience. She definitely knows her way when it comes to dogs. Darla came back hope very happy and well fed. Thanks! Will book her again, I got several updates and pics of my baby throughout the week.”
“It was the first time using this site. I have never left Izzy with anyone before, but I was going away for a long weekend. I was so nervous to leave her and she cried when I dropped her off, but I knew she’d get over it because there were other dogs there and she loves to play. Desiree was awesome. Send pictures every day and videos which made me feel ease on my vacation. I would definitely recommend her. She has a wonderful set up and is wonderful with the dogs that she cares for. I will be calling her again when I go away.”
“Well where do I start! She is the sweeetest thing ever! Took such great care of my son and listened I explained the feeding time and what NOT to give him! He will most definitely be back! ✨✨”
“We are so thrilled to have found Laina and Bill. A true home away from home for our two year old lab. He is EXHAUSTED after his first overnight (haha). A true sign of a great time!!! He can have separation anxiety, but they made him feel so comfortable right away at the meet and greet. Thank you for celebrating Blue’s 2nd birthday with us!!!”
“We had a positive experience boarding our rambunctious pointer puppy over Christmas. Because of our flight schedules Judith was very flexible with pickup and dropoff for no additional charge. We would book again.”
“Tyler and his wife took great care of Ernie. They sent lots of pictures keeping us updated on his stay. They gave him his medication and even kept him company when he was hiding from thunderstorms in their bathroom. We would definitely use them again!”
