“Thank you again Kayla for having my Lady girl for the weekend! Kayla does a great job caring for my pup and keeping me in the loop on how she is doing. I never have to worry about Lady being in good hands.”
“Michael and Joanna took excellent care of our pets while we were on vacation. Our dog Georgie has a special diet and needs two insulin shots a day, and they handled his feeding and meds routine exactly as we hoped. He also got plenty of much‑needed canine companionship during his stay, which helps keep up his energy as a senior pooch. Our cat Sheba had her own comfortable quarters, and everything was well-organized with the pets’ comfort in mind. They also sent regular pictures and updates, which we really appreciated. Great sitters and a great Rover experience all around!”
“Barbara is an absolutely amazing person! So kind and caring! You can tell how much she loves animals and really treated mine with amazing love. I needed somebody at the last minute, for a work trip, to watch my 16-year-old Bichon with many health issues and medications. She readily accepted and had zero issues providing him the care that he needed. He quickly settled into her place, next to her own dogs. Lots of very cute photos throughout my one day trip! Communication with Barbara was easy, timely, and she was incredibly flexible when I needed to change things up on her a little bit at the last minute. I look forward to using Barbara in the future!”
“Bailey is a caring, knowledgeable and experienced pet owner and caretaker. Freddy was well-cared for and I was sent several photos during the day to let me know how he was doing. Bailey was sensitive in incorporating Freddy into her pack of two dogs. I felt very comfortable and confident that Freddy was well cared for. Thank you!”
“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 could not have felt more comfortable leaving my dog with Katalina and her husband. They seem to love hosting pups, they have a great set up in their home, and my dog was very well taken care of.”
“Manuel was so good to my baby Luna!!! He agreed to a last minute booking for me during a week long vacation. He sent daily photos and updates and was very responsive to messages throughout her stay. We will DEFINITELY book with him again!”
“This was my second time booking with Maria and she was once again great! Provided me with lots of updates and I knew Julio was having a good time. I would definitely recommend Maria!”
“Super sitter! I felt so comfortable leaving my two babies (one with separation anxiety) with Cary and her family. Cary checked in while I was gone, sent photos, and answered any questions. The dogs were super happy. I will definitely call on Cary again.”
“Susan is very flexible and quick to respond. She sends lots of daily photos and was able to follow specific dietary instructions as well as administrator insulin shots twice daily.”
“Lorraine was awesome, It was like I left Chestnut at home she was very tentative to Chestnut he enjoyed her she sent pictures every day. Lorraine was excellent I had no worries about Chestnut while he was in her care I recommend Lorraine she will take excellent care of your pet. Chestnut can’t wait to visit again”
“Judith was amazing, communication was quick and she is great on sending updates on your pet. Leroy came back home extremely happy and would love to go back soon. Highly recommend her for your pet needs.”
“Michelle did an excellent job taking care of our little guy! We booked her last minute and she was so accommodating. She sent great pictures while we were away, which is always so appreciated. Would highly recommend and will definitely book again!”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better person to look after my dog! From the moment we met, my pup immediately felt comfortable, and I loved receiving regular photo updates while I was away — it gave me so much peace of mind. I returned to a very happy, relaxed dog who clearly had a great time. I highly recommend her. I’ll definitely be booking again!”
“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”
“Eliza took great care of Winston. He played a lot and had a lot of fun. She provided frequent updates and was very accommodating. I will definitely leverage her assistance again.”

“Luis did a lovely job with my two kitties when I was on vacation for a week. He was kind, thorough and communicative. When I returned home, my kitties were feeling peaceful and happy! I feel happy and grateful I found Luis, and my mind will be at ease any time I go away and leave my cats in his care. He’s really nice and it was a pleasure to work with him!”
“Agnes was very thorough and helpful with Hot Chocolate. She was patient with our crabby cat while we were away and gave me updates for every visit. Thank you Agnes!”
“Guillermina is such a gem! A true diamond in the rough. She took great care of my two babies and was very understanding when I made a mistake with the dates. She was able to hold them an extra day. Forever grateful for her!”
About: I’m sure all sitters say this but I genuinely have a seat for being with animals. Sometimes I prefer them over people and treat them like they’re my own. I love all of their personalities and quirks. Anywhere I go I ask to pet someone’s dog and respect what the dog’s body language is telling me. I have a Siberian husky so I have had to learn how to read body language and potential environmental stressors very well. I invest a generous amount of time into learning about dog breeds and am always opening to learning more! Currently, I am home for the holidays with plenty of time to care for your pets while you’re away! I have access to a car and am eager to work. Extensive experience with dogs, slightly less with cats but always open to caring! I love giving them constant stimulation and walks. Pets and treats are always given. I treat all dogs like they’re my own. I have an eye on them almost at all times.
“Kimberly was great with our elderly kitty who needs transdermal and oral meds (not an easy task!) We loved her funny commentary and the pictures she sent after each visit. We felt so relieved to have someone taking such great care of our fur baby while we were gone.”
“Natalia was great with Flynn. He can be a little scaredy cat/hisses at strangers but he really warmed up to her. She was great at communication and pics/videos and put my mind at ease. Will def use her again in the future.”
“Edgar was easy to work with and very attentive to my cat. My cat is a senior and I mix meds into her breakfast plate. He was able to accommodate her schedule. I would not hesitate to have him take care of her the next time I need a cat sitter!”
“Great communication, friendly and professional! Has experience with pitties, which is was a determining factor in our booking. Karen was very understanding and supportive of Diesel's needs.”
About: I have been taking care of strays for the past 12 years. I now have two cats of my own, that I took in from outside. I believe they are related (I found them together, and they are both cow cats). I take great care of them, and they return the favor!
“Jessica truly saved the day by rearranging her schedule to fit in a last-minute visit request, for which I'm incredibly grateful. She was very responsive and communicative throughout the entire process, and she took wonderful care of my cats while I was away!”
“The weekend of my son and daughter-in-law’s wedding, Angelina provided care to their cat as well as my three cats, staying overnight for two nights at my home. Prior to that weekend, she came over to meet the cats and myself and run through their daily care routine. Even my shy cat Brody seemed curious about her. Wedding weekend, she was great at providing updates through text and photos throughout her stay, and I appreciated her attention to cleaning up their litter boxes and feeding mats one more time before she left. She has a gift for working with animals and is trustworthy and easy to communicate with. I will definitely use her again!”
“Gaby was attentive and caring with my cat. Itty Bitty was a first timer with pet sitting and was very nervous. Gaby kept me up to date on my pet's status with pictures and text. She went out of her way to make my pet comfortable. Thanks again!”
“Alonso was great and friendly! He came and met our pups before the drop-in to get acquainted with them and their routine. He was on the and sent photos to give us happy updates. We plan on continuing to have him help take care of our pups.”
“Kayla is amazing, she is so good with animals and cares so much that I felt completely comfortable leaving my (very) nervous rescue dog in her care. I would 100% recommend her and am looking forward to working with her again.”
About: I have always been an animal lover and grew up with horses, dogs and cats. I’m comfortable with all kinds of animals and their needs. I have 1 small dog named Ben that I’ve had for 10 years so I understand the care that’s needed every day from walks to attention. I work a full time but flexible job that allows me to take breaks throughout the day for walks/care as needed and am predominately home but do leave for a few hours on some weekdays. I own my own house in Riverside with a big fenced in backyard. We keep everything put away and organized so there are no worries of curious noses getting in to anything

“I can’t recommend Mary enough! She stepped in last minute to take care of our pup, Monty, for a full day, and we couldn’t be more grateful. From the moment we met her, she was welcoming and friendly, giving us a tour of her lovely home, which put us at ease knowing Monty would be well cared for. Mary took Monty out for a walk, fed him, and even has grassy areas in her backyard for him to enjoy. She kept us updated throughout the day with photos and messages, which we really appreciated. It was clear he was having a great time! If you’re looking for someone to care for your pup, look no further than Mary. She truly is fantastic!”
“Dayana was a great dogsitter to our puppy Honey. She sent pictures and videos throughout the day of Honey having fun and being taken on walks, and she was very nice and communicative. I will definitely be reaching back out for more dog sitting with Dayana!”

“Karen was wonderful. Her house is so clean and beautiful, and the yard is secure and well maintained. She was very kind and cared for my pup like a pro! I really appreciated the pictures and updates she sent throughout the day. Absolutely recommend Karen!”
“We had a great experience with them during our stay in Chicago. We had to change our schedule around last minute and they were super accommodating and prompt with responses. Our pup had an amazing time with them. Highly recommend them for your pet care!”
About: I’m a lifelong dog lover with years of experience caring for dogs for friends, family, and neighbors. What sets me apart is the level of care, patience, and attention I give every dog as if they were my own. I understand that every dog has a different personality, comfort level, and routine, and I take the time to make them feel safe, relaxed, and loved while their owners are away. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or calm and cuddly, I adapt to their needs and make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and companionship. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m dependable, attentive, communicative, and genuinely enjoy being around dogs. I’m comfortable following feeding schedules, walks, routines, administering basic medications if needed, and providing updates/photos so you feel at ease while away. My goal is to create a warm, low-stress environment where your dog feels comfortable, cared for, and happy — not just watched. It would truly be an honor to care for your dog and give them the same love and attention every pet deserves. Daily and evening care including walks, feedings, playmate, bath time and bed time with any other activities including the dog park when availabe based on weathe. Pets are free to roam while I am home and crated when I need to run errands. They are treated like the rest of the family.
“Even though she was sick, Kayla took great care of my 9 week old puppy today. She was great about keeping me informed, sharing photos and videos. I was impressed how much knowledge she demonstrated and shared about puppy behavior, my dog’s breed characteristics and nutrition, I feel confident leaving my puppet with Kayla will help her socialization tremendously!”
“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.”
“My dog Coco had a wonderful time with Emily and Amy and their dog, Pepperoni 🌶. I would certainly recommend Emily to anyone needing doggy day care. And I will certainly bring Coco again.”
“Angelina has been amazing! Our boy is so happy and Angelina is so communicative throughout the day, and has made this process so easy. I was definitely a little anxious about Opie going to a new daycare but Angelina has relieved all of that worry. We will definitely be using her in the future!”
“Best experience yet!!! Alex is amazing!! Her residence is a pet paradise!! She is definitely the true dog whisperer. My Dutton was in Heaven with his new pack of furballs!! Alex is such an unbelievable host and truly as good as it gets!!”
“Very personable, inviting, and understanding. The house is clean, organized, and very dog-friendly! I appreciate Samuel taking care of Haku on such short notice as I was needed at work. He’s a great guy!”
“Lorraine was fantastic with Aspen. I had communication and pics through the day. Aspen was relaxed and comfortable at your home. Thank you so much for helping us out today.”

About: Hi, I’m Gabriela! Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember, and I’ve been officially pet sitting since 2023. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and energy levels, from playful puppies who need extra attention to gentle senior dogs who require a softer touch and steady routine. Because I work a standard 9-to-4 schedule Monday through Friday, I’m available for evening visits and overnights during the week, with full, open availability on the weekends. I’m proud to have maintained a 4.9-star rating across 64 reviews, and I always aim to give every dog the same genuine care, comfort, and attention I'd want for my own. Weekday care is ideal for drop ins or dogs that are used to this schedule. Weekends offer complete flexibility for full day care, longer walks, or taking on puppies and dogs with higher daytime needs. I have 1 pup that is extremely friendly and loves to make new friends. This is good for pups that are used to having someone around so that they don’t feel lonely.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I was young. I’ve had many dogs over the years and all were loved, cared for, and given a life they deserve. I’m currently working part time and have hybrid classes. So, I have time to meet the needs of families and their fur babies. I am available to drop in the day, or spend nights to make sure your animals are cared for. I make sure they have clean water and food when needed. I let them out to run around and take pets on walks. I brush animals to make their coats soft, and offer baths.
“Natalia walks both our dogs and she's great with them. They're so excited to see her and she's so courteous when coming to the house or bringing them home. We will continue to have her walk our very energetic pup and older gentlemen for weekly walks and have no reservations about fully recommending her.”
“She is absolutely amazing! She follows instructions perfectly, communicates quickly and clearly, and always prioritizes safety. I really appreciate how she reinforces our dog’s training and handles dogs with so much care and confidence. We trust her completely and feel very lucky to have found her. Highly recommend!”
“Amazing, reliable dog walker! Was able to help me out on short notice. Always is great with my pup who loves her and gives detailed comments on how the walk went which is really nice!”
“Jim has been such a positive addition and our puppy Juno is so excited to see him and her behavior has become noticeably calmer since starting her walks with Jim.”
“I’m so glad Edgar is taking care of my dog during the day. I love getting my message and pictures, and I know he’s getting exercise, a potty break and some attention. I highly recommend Edgar to anyone looking for a dog walker!”
About: I have taken care of dogs for most of my life! I had a puppy as a young girl, and cared for her through her old age. I also have extensive pet sitting experience, and have watched 5 dogs simultaneously. I have a very caring personality and would love to care for your fur babies! When it comes to cats, I have about 12 years of experience. I have taken care of numerous outdoor stray cats, and have rehomed many of them, including taking two into my own home. I am self employed (jewelry artist!) so I have plenty of time to check in with your pets, walk/play etc. I am available anytime during the week (M-F) and usually on the weekends as well. I currently live in a small apartment, and would need to come by you. I am excellent at following directions, and will cater to you and your pets needs.
About: I have worked I Dogtopia Lagrange for over a year now, I have also been a pet sitter in years prior and love to hangout with all different types of pups I do work my morning at Dogtopia of Lagrange Monday-Friday if your pup is already a pup that visit I can take them along with me if wanted but the rest of the day after work ( at 1pm) I have the rest of the day to have the most fun we can. First getting a dog used to a new environment/person is my first priority than, Lots of walks for your pups, if needed can crate, and lots and lots of cuddles.
“Tamara is so patient with our anxious dog! Our dog warmed up so quickly to Tamara and its a relief knowing our pup will be looking forward to walks while we are away at work. Tamara sends great updates and leaves notes to let us know how our dog is doing while we are at the office. She even came for a meet and greet to make sure our dog felt safe with her before her first walk.”
About: I have raised and cared for dogs and cats my entire life, all sizes and ages, several with serious medical needs. As a child, my family bred and raised Irish Setters and kept any pup that was not 100% healthy for adoption. Therefore I have experience with all aspects of pet care and I have raised my kids to do the same. We are Tara (49yr), Jaden (15yr) and Alia (12yr) and have been dog sitting for friends and family for years and really enjoy hosting pups to play with and pamper on the weekends since unfortunately we are not home enough during the week to provide adequate care and attention to a full time pup. Our three kitties are very accustomed to dogs but we have plenty of room to separate them if they overstimulate your doggy. Our three level home, plus large back yard, will give your pup plenty of room to play inside and out! We typically run and play in the backyard during potty breaks and go out for several walks a day. The yard is only 90% fenced so I have several 50ft leashes around the yard to provide the illusion of freedom while maintaining safety. If your pup is high energy, they can also play with the neighbor’s dogs or we can take a trip to the dog park so they can socialize and run with other pups. I assure you they will get lots of cuddles and attention and I will send photos and vids of your pup to you throughout their stay! I am available for boarding in my home on the weekends, beginning Friday evening through Monday morning. I can also board at your home from Saturday morning through Sunday evening. I will treat your pet like a member of the family! If they get muddy in the backyard I have no problem giving them a bath and brushing them. They are welcome on the furniture and will not be left alone while they are in my care.
“Angelina is fantastic with Griffey! She is super communicative, punctual, and makes me feel at ease knowing he is in good hands. Love the updates and photos too; it’s clear she really cares. Highly recommend!!”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is that I can provide expert care for every stage of your pets life , I have knowledge of various breeds and species I have good techniques for safe handling. I start each day by planning in prioritizing my pets care. whether it’s morning walks or feeding schedules or administering medications throughout the week, I maintain a schedule that accommodates both regular visits and any special needs such as training sessions or senior care. I for example, have a snake in my house. I ensure that they are integrated into a safe and good environment. I provided dedicated space for rest for them as usual diet and feeding schedule every two days I give them water And give them two times a month mice, snakes are more tended to grow when they are fed more. For my client that I used to sitter their routine was different it was based on play , tend to their needs and routines. Since their pets enjoyed regular exercise . We would go to nearby parks and maintain usual diet three times a day and around the clock supervision.
About: I’m an animal lover and long time cat mom to rescues. I’ve been pet sitting since I’ve been a teen. Most of my pet sitting jobs have come from families that I babysit for or referrals. I have amazing references. I’m comfortable with all dog breeds and sizes. I enjoy long walks and nature. I’m trustworthy, reliable, dedicated, loving and caring. I treat everyone’s pets as if they were my own. I take pride in walking, feeding, and providing endless affection to all pets. I always provide extra love and care for my clients fur-babies! I have no problem collecting mail or packages, tending to the garden or flowers, and keeping the house tidy. If given the opportunity to care for your pet and/or Home, I will provide the best care possible.
About: I am a human nurse and have a dog with hemiplegia, so I am well-versed in bladder expression and monitoring for injury. Having 3 special needs pets, means I know how to administer oral medication, eyedrops, injections, and topicals I am not an early riser so if you have a late night out, midnight is not a problem! My availability varies upon my work schedule. I will follow the instructions the pawrents have left.

“Ruben took my Anubis on such short notice and if I could give him 10 stars I would. He was very communicative and consistent with updates/pictures. While away on a long business trip, every time I worried I was able to simply check my phone for peace of mind. So glad we chose Ruben and I will be using him again in the future.”
“Jennifer and her partner are amazing! I never worry when Luna is with them. She is so happy and tired from puppy play when she gets back. I love the videos of the pups and makes me feel like I’m right there with her. The drop off van is the cutest like your kid getting dropped off from school 🥰❤️🐶”
“We needed two-night boarding for our pups and we’re so glad we found Susseth! She consistently communicated with us and sent several videos. Next time we need boarding, we’re trusting her again!”

“First timer to book through Rover and it was a smashing success! Juliet seemed well cared for and entertained while her family left her for a long weekend. I would definitely book with John again. I think that Juliet got to hang with another dog put her at ease in a new home. And loved that we received periodic photos of her enjoying her vacation. Thank you!”
“Eniya was great! She was easy to communicate with and trustworthy. Jack had a great time with her and her family - Eniya took him on plenty of walks and they played in her backyard a lot. Eniya sent lots of photos.”
“Roman was Charise’s first ever Rover dog and we were really happy to have connected with her for our 5-day trip. Charise was a great sitter—she sent detailed updates about how Roman was doing with Navi and hope he was settling in while we were away. Her home is very clean and Charise is a very warm and welcoming host. Navi is just the cutest little nugget ever, and I could tell immediately Roman would feel right at home with Charise. Our big GSD is a big baby and throws a bit of a fit every time we leave, but Charise and Navi were patient with him while he warmed up to the idea of us being away—by the time we returned, he was fully integrated into their little family. Roman is allowed on the couch and bed for cuddles, and Charise has a full basement for the dogs to run around and play, a small yard, and she takes them together on long walks. Roman came home fully pooped from a week of playing with Navi and we’ll definitely be using Charise in the future!”
“Kyla was super attentive to kash. I know he can be a handful at times but her patience was amazing. She communicated with me & sent pictures & videos while I went on my cruise. I was gone a week but she made everything feel super comfortable. Will be booking again !”
