“Jeff and Ron took care of our standard, 4 1/2 year old Bernedoodle. It was our first time leaving her and we were cautious in who we chose to care for her. Jeff. And Ron lived up to their highly rated reviews! We set up a meet and greet and also decided to have our pup spend a day with them before leaving on our 4 day getaway. Jeff’s friendly demeanor with us and our pup put our minds at ease. We felt comfortable knowing our dog was in good hands!”

“Unfortunately our plans changed so Penny (our dog) did not end up staying with Sophie. However, we had a wonderful meet and greet ahead of time. Sophie was great with Penny who can be a little shy with new humans. She showed care and concern when I described Penny’s schedule and needs and she was extremely flexible when our departure time kept changing. Her apartment was well set-up to accommodate Penny as well. We would not hesitate to book with Sophie again should the need arise.”

“Julia was absolutely wonderful with my dog, Sammie. Sammie is very shy and can take time to warm up to new people, but Julia was so patient, understanding, and gentle with her. She sent frequent updates, photos, and videos where I could easily see how comfortable and happy Sammie was in her care. It’s clear Julia truly loves dogs and treats them like her own. I felt completely at ease while I was away and would trust her to watch Sammie again in a heartbeat!”

“Susan was absolutely wonderful with Jasper. We first met her in August when she watched Jasper for our wedding and she was just delightful. Her dog Isla and Jasper got along so well and Susan even sent us video and photo updates as requested. When we return for another visit with Jasper in October Jasper was so excited, he knew exactly where he was and was ready for some more time with his friends. We highly recommend Susan as a care taker as she is kind, responsive and her love for dogs is just wonderful. Thank you so much Susan and looking forward to the next time”

“The absolute best! We do not live close to Kimberly but the level of care and love she and her family give to both our babies makes the travel absolutely worth it. She makes our pets apart of her family and they absolutely adore staying with Kim. Highly recommended!”

“Rico is an excellent dog sitter for our dog Snow. He is reliable, he sent us daily photos of Snow. We feel so comfortable leaving our dog in their care. Our dog feels at home with them. They have a well-maintained backyard that Snow can play and run around. Rico loves hanging out with our pet and takes extra time to show some love and cuddles. We highly recommend him.”

“Our Teddy had a great time with Jacob and his dog Murphy! It was our first time to board our dog and I was very worried being gone for a long time and hike it would affect him. Jacob is very experienced and took good care of Teddy and sent pics and videos. I could enjoy our vacation knowing he was being well cared for, safe, and getting stimulation. He came home unphased by our absence and in good spirits. I would recommend Jacob!!”

“If you have an anxious dog like mine, who needs a quiet, less-stimulating environment, Karla is perfect. She is reliable, communicative, and understands a dog's needs. I'm a repeat customer and highly recommend her.”

“He provided multiple updates and pictures. My dog was not only super excited to meet him, but looked happy and well taken care of in the pictures I got. I trust my dog was in great hands, and I'll definitely be booking with him again!”

“Diane was amazing. I have two small Maltese dogs with separation anxiety, so I was very nervous about leaving them. From the moment we met, she made me feel at ease. She welcomed them into her home and went above and beyond to make sure they felt comfortable, safe, and confident. It was a wonderful experience, and I could tell my dogs were happy and well cared for. I’m already booking with her again for future stays. Highly recommend!”

“My two dogs have differing personalities, one of them is very cautious around new people. Cynthia won her over almost immediately! I will definitely rebook when the need arises.”


“Sky was super responsive and helpful! She was flexible too. She took great care of the pups, which isn’t the easiest with our 14yo yorkie 💙 she played with our energetic Honey and took sweet pictures for us of both. Appreciated her care and will book again when my parents are in town and need a sitter!”


“HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!! Jen is the best she has watched our baby twice now and each time he is excited. Will be using her in the future for sure. She is very accommodating and flexible. A+ sitter!”


“Megan was absolutely amazing!! She took such good care of Harrison, was communicative, and sent updates constantly! I cannot speak highly enough of her services :)”

“Brian did a fantastic job watching my dog, including giving medication 2x per day, and dealing with her anxiety being away from home. He was also flexible and accomodating when my travel plans unexpectedly fell through. Would definitely use Brian again in the future!”
“Sophia and Andy were super accommodating. Never had to ask for a picture because they were on top of it. You can tell how much they care for pets. Made me feel like my dog Morrie was really well taken care of. Morrie came back happy and content :) Definitely recommend. Thanks so much again”

“Thomas did an incredible job watching my mischievous kittens. He took their shenanigans in stride like a pro while I was out of town. I could rest assured that they were fed entertained and cared for. I would definitely consider Thomas in the future.”

“I’m writing this review as I prepare to move from Chicago to New York, two and a half years after I adopted my cats (then kittens) Susan and Grover. In those two and a half years, Megan is the only cat sitter they’ve ever known. This is because they love Megan, because Megan is amazing at what she does. She’s responsible and always responsive, and always went above and beyond to make sure the cats were well cared for. I can’t recommend Megan enough, and I am very disappointed that I won’t be able to hire her to look out for Susan and Grover in New York.”

“Eli was a wonderful sitter. This was our first time ever using a sitter for our cat (Who is not the friendliest) He made sure she was fed and spent some time with her providing updates along the way. He showed up everyday he was scheduled for and even helped with a small emergency that came up during our trip. I would highly recommend Eli to anyone cautious or hiring a new sitter or just looking for someone new to watch their fur babies! We will definitely be using him in the future for both of our pets now.”


“Coral was great!! I have a nervous cat but she had a calm energy that allowed my cat to have some socialization when I was gone. She was also clear and communicative. Totally recommend!”


“jason was so incredibly kind and sweet to our cats! he was also so accomodating when we had a last minute schedule change. definitely will book again!”

“Brenda has been very kind and considerate to my cat and her needs! My cat is pretty shy but opens up to Brenda whenever she visits so easily! Very happy knowing my kitter is in good hands when I am out :)”

“Orlando is the best! At this point he's practically family. He's looked after my cat several times now. His communication is incredible. He's always so kind and caring. He sends wonderful updates with pictures and videos. He makes sure that all her needs are met and makes me feel very assured my little one is in the best hands. He is very respectful in my home and treats it just as well as he would his own. I'll always look to Orlando first when I need support while I'm away.”

“Shante is such a great catsitter for my skittish cat! It brings me a ton of peace of mind to know that my cat will enjoy her visits and that she’s in safe hands with Shante.”


“Emily demonstrated so much empathy for my geriatric cat. She met him where he was, and he responded to her well. When I returned from my vacation, he wasn't needy or anxious -- just gave me a look like, "you were gone?" That really says it all. Emily takes great care. And her daily progress reports gave me peace of mind while away. Thank you!”


About: My most fond memories of cat sitting are of Kane, a three legged, elderly cat with diabetes. I spent a few years with him and absolutely adored every moment. No matter your cat’s needs, I have you covered.

“Amanda was so great with my two kittens while I was away! She gave lots of updates and sent the cutest pictures. So grateful to her for taking such great care of my cats while I was away!”


“Georgette was a rockstar. My little one loved her and we came home to my cats dirty dishes washed which was absolutely a surprise and so so so so kind. We will definitely be regulars thank you so much!!!”


“Luna did absolutely amazing with my kitten! She kept me updated throughout the day with plenty of photos. She was also very informative and kept me in the loop about how my kitten was behaving throughout the day. I felt at ease leaving her with Luna and would definitely book again!”

“It was our first time leaving our cat alone and we were very nervous. However, Lee was great and made us feel much better, sending updates and pictures daily. We were happy to see that she was able to get our timid girl to come out of hiding for pets and even to play.”


“Lucy was so amazing, she communicated the whole time, sent the cutest pictures of my babies, and really eased my anxiety while I was away. She cared for my two cats and I will definitely be using her again in the future. Again Lucy, thank you so much for everything!”

“Our favorite cat sitter! This is Jaclyn’s third time taking care of Natalie and she is always reliable, communicative, and amazing with our baby! Can’t thank her enough for the peace of mind :)”

“Emilie is a great dog sitter! She's conscientious, a good communicator and very caring. We have a senior dog and Emilie graciously adapted to his needs and abilities. We will be contacting Emilie again!”


About: Alexis and I specialize in pug, bulldog, and short-nosed breeds! We've also pet-sitted for friends and family on a near weekly basis for years, caring for the biggest to the smallest the animal kingdom has to offer us nature lovers! No two are the same and that's what makes it an adventure each day! To witness the adorable and fascinating personalities of these beautiful beasts is a gift! And every walking pup gets a smile from me and you can bet your dollar I want to give each other their daily scratches, if I'm allowed of course! 😁 Both my girlfriend and I work from home and are able to step away to care for, and dedicate time to, whatever your little one may require - including getting their random, afternoon zoomies out! Your animal will not go without attention, in fact, they may get used to TOO MUCH attention within our care! 😅 We have a fenced in courtyard for safety and live directly across from a school so our neighborhood is calm and quiet! We also have access to two nearby vets in case of emergency! Plus, given that both my girlfriend and I work from home 5 days a week, your pet will never be left alone as someone will always have eyes on them.
“Cynthia was welcoming, communicative, professional, and genuinely cares about the dogs in her care. It was great to see the dogs playing together and enjoying her house and yard, so we'd absolutely have her dog sit for us again!”

“Cheri's place itself is the perfect refuge for our two pups. It's rare to have so much off leash space at someone's house so near our city dwelling. But Cheri and the playmates themselves make it an extra special treat for an occasional day of doggie daycare.”

About: Hello! I've enjoyed working with animals for all of my life. I lived in Chicago for 12 years before moving to Japan for the last 5 years. I recently moved back to the Chicago area and am looking forward to helping local pet owners! I recently moved back from Japan, so I've been searching for temporary employment in the Champaign area before starting graduate school in the fall. I have time available during the day, evenings and on weekends to provide care for pets. I can follow instructions on what care you need for your pet! I am not able to offer care in my own home, but I'm happy to do what it takes to meet your needs.
“Michelle is so awesome with our French bulldog Toby! She came over for a meet and greet because we needed someone to watch Toby while we’re away for 2 weeks next month. She made us feel so much better about leaving our pup because she is very knowledgeable, kind, and Toby loved her immediately! She came over to walk Toby today and provided multiple updates and photos. She is very communicative. We know Toby will love being with her for our upcoming trip and knowing she is taking care of him gives us so much reassurance!”

“Victoria has been walking Ollie regularly over the past month and Ollie loves her! She is very responsive, and always sends sweet photos/updates. I highly recommend her!”

“I really enjoyed Georgette as a walker for my dogs. She took the time to meet with me and the dogs for about an hour meet and greet. That was great to get all of the information needed for their care, and the time to discuss any preference we had.”

About: I cared for my beloved Shang, a wonderful stray dog (Collie, Shepherd, Golden Retriever mix) that adopted my family, when I was a teenager. He was the "dog love" of my life. Since then, I have adopted 8 lovely cats, as I have always lived in small condos or apartments. Six of the kitties have crossed the rainbow bridge. And I am as a big a dog lover as I am a cat lover! I am now retired, so I have plenty of time to devote to any pet that needs walking, care, attention, and play! My schedule is very flexible. Although I don't care for others' pets in my home (my roommates and I have two kitties), I am flexible with clients who require pet care in their homes. I am a mature, honest, trustworthy, dependable adult, and will consider all reasonable client requests.
“Shante helped me out when I was in a pinch and realized with short notice that I needed a dog walker. She was very responsive and from the pictures looked like my pup loved his time with her! I will definitely use Shante for future walks.”

“Morgan was able to accommodate me last minute and I’m so grateful. She was incredibly responsive and made me feel at ease knowing my dog was in great hands. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life. My best friend Murphy, and before that Cricket and Benji. I love dogs and cats, and I am quick to form bonds with them. Whether that be with friends/family, or my years taking care of the neighborhood pets while their families were out of town. I have plenty of experience with animals of all age groups and sizes. I have a special fondness for older doggies, and understand that they may require some extra care and love. My only schedule constraints are my full-time undergrad classes, but my classes are spaced out throughout the day. If we talk through a schedule beforehand I can almost always make it work. I’m very patient with dogs, and I understand that unfamiliar faces can be scary for them—especially when their parents are away. I give lots of love, and I am experienced with positive reinforcement training. I never get mad or upset, and I’ve learned that my emotions often influence theirs. Your pets are your heart, I completely understand that. I’ll treat them like the precious parts of your lives that they are.
“"I found Amanda through the Rover app, and I couldn’t be happier with her service! My dog is an Akita, a breed that can be challenging to adapt to strangers, but Amanda was incredibly patient and understanding. She took the time to earn his trust, and thanks to her patience and care, he eventually felt comfortable enough to let her take him for walks. Amanda kept me updated throughout my vacation, and I returned to a happy and relaxed dog. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dedicated and trustworthy pet sitter. Thank you so much, Amanda!" AAAAAA+++++++”
