“Amazing sitter! I will definitely be using her again! Keep me informed and was very responsive when I was running late. My dog loved her and enjoyed being around her pups.”

“Audrey was a gracious host for my dog. She took excellent care of him and his needs while I was away. She even enlightened me that my dog was fond of cats 😳 I had no idea, but I think her care and introduction had something to do with it 😉 I’m not looking forward to leaving town again but when I do, I hope Audrey, and her family, are available to care for my fur kid..”

“Sarah and her daughter were so kind and nice to work with! They took on Henry last minute so that I could make some travel plans, and were really patient with my late night pick-up. They were so kind and Henry had a great time. We would highly recommend sending your pup to spend some time with them!”


“AMAZING! Nicole was so sweet and caring! She took great care of our puppy and made us feel so comfortable since this was our first time doing something like this! It was awesome getting sent pictures of Jax as well!”

“I can't say enough great things about Ruth! She took excellent care of our 2 dogs while we went on vacation for a week. She provided them with snuggles, walks, and social time and provided us with peace of mind so we could relax. She sent us a few pictures and even some videos! I highly recommend Ruth and we look forward to seeing her again in the future!”

“Taylor is amazing! She helped me out when I found myself in a pinch with my elderly moms health and had to travel out of town. She took my pups in without even thinking twice, and even let me add on an extra day or two because the health condition of my mom was unpredictable. She sent me pics every day and let me know how great they were doing. This was our dogs fist time staying with someone they didn't know. My mom has been our petsitter for many years. I will definitely utilize Taylor's services without a 2nd thought. She is really fast at all replies too. Thank you Taylor! So happy and thankful to have found you. 🤗🙏❤️”

“Cassandra is awesome! She’s kind, responds quickly, sends pics, and genuinely seems to enjoy my dog! My dog feels right at home at her place with her dogs. We will use her as often as we can!”

“Angela was great! She treated Nino like family and is very genuine about her love of dogs. She also sent a few pics during his stay which was very comforting and appreciated. We will definitely ask Angela to care for Nino again!!”
“Katie and her family have been a true blessing for us and our pup, Stormy. The way they shower her with affection and take care of her needs is truly remarkable, making us feel grateful and relieved that she's in good hands. It's no wonder that we affectionately refer to them as Stormy's second family, as she has grown to love them as her own. Without hesitation, we highly recommend Katie to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter.”

“Erika was wonderful taking care of our Lance during the holiday. We would have loved to take him with us, but it is too stressful for Lance. Lance was very happy to stay with Erika as she has a pup of her own. Yay for a playmate!”

I spent 34 years caring for young children so I come well equipped with patience, understanding and compassion. Book a sitting with me today for an excellent, safety conscious visit for your sweet fur baby! I work during the week so this leaves me open to schedule sittings on Friday and weekends.I can come to you or well behaved dogs are welcome in my home on weekends. My schedule can be flexible. Generally Friday- Sunday evening but flexible. I care for the fur babies in the manner they are accustomed to. This keeps everyone happy. I try to do whatever the pup is used to.

About: I've sat for many different breeds and species over the years. I grew up always having some type of animal in the home, especially dogs. I have two dogs and a cat now. I love cooking for them and knowing exactly what is going in their food. I love making home made treats for them as well. I even sew for them at times. I've made boots, coats, beds, Halloween costumes, toys, etc. Right now, my schedule is pretty flexible, which means I have lots of time to dedicate purely to furkids. I am close with a professional dog trainer and am able to ask any question, which is always a big help. My vet has great hours and very accessible as well for any questions or concerns.
About: I have cared for puppies and senior dogs within a doggy daycare setting. I have administered medication/insulin. I always make sure they use their energy. I currently am working part time at a doggy daycare. So I will have plenty of time to make sure your animals are cared for. I always make sure they are well taken care of and always get the utmost amount of love and care they deserve. Along with treats.
About: I’ve had dogs ever since I was a young child & doggos have always been a special part of my life! They become important family members who give & get the unconditional love we all deserve! It’s hard some times when life takes us away from home & our doggies for longer than we’d like. Exactly the reason I would be the perfect person to love, snuggle, take care of & give your dogs the attention they want and need while you’re away or busy! puppers will always be able to depend on seeing my kind face and caring hand at times like these. Just as they support our emotional needs on a daily basis, I have come to love returning the small favor for them! I am home full time & dedicate my day to taking care of my kids, my doggo, my 2 docile kittens & my household. My time is not limited. My kids and I love to take walks with the dog, go to local dog parks occasionally when they are empty & clean, & play fetch in our large, clean yard!

About: I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes and personalities, including feeding, walking, playtime, and providing companionship while owners are away. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable in their routine, and I do my best to keep things familiar and stress-free. I’m reliable, attentive, and always treat every dog with care and patience. I maintain a very flexible routine and am home the majority of the day. I do volunteer a few hours daily, but I’m otherwise available to care for pets, provide attention, and keep them on their normal schedule. Dogs in my care will have a stable environment, regular potty breaks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment for every dog in my care. I make sure pets are always supervised, comfortable, and kept in a clean, secure space where they can relax and feel at home.

“Tammy and her family are awesome. Our guy had a nice big fenced in yard to run around in and he had plenty of attention and playtime. Communication with her is quick and easy. She is also very good about asking for info on my dog when she needed something and giving us an update as the day went on. Definitely planning to rebook with Tammy.”

About: Nestled in the quiet countryside, I offer loving, in-home boarding for dogs and cats in a peaceful, natural setting. With plenty of fresh air, daily walks, and attentive care, your pets are treated like family while they’re away from home. Able to care for animals at all stages in their life. I love taking long walks with canine companions! Your dogs will not be unleashed on a walk unless your specify! A client’s cat or dog fits naturally into my daily routine because their care is built around their needs, not a rigid schedule. Each day follows a calm, predictable flow—morning feedings, medications if needed, fresh air, walks or supervised outdoor time for dogs, and quiet check-ins or play for cats—mirroring what they’re used to at home as closely as possible. Throughout the day, I weave in one-on-one attention, enrichment, rest, and observation, so pets aren’t just “fit in,” but thoughtfully included in a rhythm that keeps them comfortable, engaged, and well cared for from morning to night. Tailoring your services starts with seeing each pet as an individual, not a “one-size-fits-all” guest. Begin with a detailed intake or meet-and-greet to learn the pet’s routine, personality, energy level, medical needs, fears, and preferences. From there, you can adjust care in a few key ways: • Routine-based care: Match feeding times, walk schedules, playtime, and sleep habits as closely as possible to what the pet is used to at home. • Personality-aware handling: Offer extra quiet and space for shy or senior pets, more structured play and exercise for high-energy dogs, and gentle, low-stress interactions for anxious animals. • Health-focused support: Follow specific instructions for medications, mobility limits, special diets, or senior care, and keep careful notes so nothing is missed. • Environment choices: Decide whether a pet thrives with social interaction or prefers solo time, indoor lounging, or outdoor exploration in your country setting.

“Our dog Oliver had his first Rover experience two days ago. It couldn’t have been any better. Angy has a little 5 lb dog so the two dogs played and cuddled all day. Angy and her husband showed genuine concern for our dog’s well being. Oliver came home a very happy and tired dog. Finding Angy was a big blessing.”


“Mya was great! She helped out fairly last minute dog sitting while we had movers at our house. Ollie had a great time playing with the other dogs, but was given some indoor puppy naptime/snuggle time too. She sent photo updates throughout the day. Highly recommended.”
About: Hi! I am an owner of a smart, service, doodle named Brody. I love all animal & have cared for many dog breeds and ages. I am currently working from home and have plenty of spare time. I am available weekdays/weekends & overnights to care for your furry friend 🐾 We live in a great, peaceful neighborhood with plenty of backyard space for your pup to exercise, play & have plenty of potty breaks. I have undivided love for animals and believe they deserve the best care. I have a young boy that love dogs. Our home is very pet friendly. If your pup likes to relax on the sofa, sprawl out on the floor or snuggle in bed it's all 100% acceptable!
“Heidi is treated like family at Katie's home. That gives me peace of mind while I'm gone. Heidi is not stressed out when I get her, unlike some other places I've tried.”

About: I am open to most pets. Cats, Dogs, Horses, Calves, Lambs, Guinea Pigs, Turtles, etc..... If extra special care or out of state, I do charge travel fees. I do have experience with older pets and young ones. I have been known to raise Opossums from the size of mice to adults. If that gives you an idea! I am open to new proposals and willing to negotiate new situations! (Unencountered situations when it comes to pets) I also House-sit, plants, pets etc... I do travel out of state to Illinois (Mostly the North suburbs of Chicago) and Wisconsin. This is where I have done house-sitting. Pets and Plants can be included in this care. I do add travel expenses, mainly for gas, when traveling for house sitting. I get up in the morning and get my coffee going and then tend to pets that are around. They get fed first thing, inside and outside. Feral cats seem to be present in the morning. Litter boxes are checked. Water Bowls. Mostly I go to people's homes and care for the pets at their houses, but I have had people bring them to me. I have an extra room set up in my barn if there are anxieties or stress with animals and they need a quiet place. I am in the process of updating that room a little more. It is heated for the winter months. I do have hand brushes and combs for extra attention and I do go talk to whoever is around. If dogs come, they can be walked. Although I live in a small town, I am close to nice places to walk on the edge of town.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. Family and friends rely on me to watch their dogs overnight, feed and give them love. I’m currently not working, so I will have tons of time to play and care for your pups. I’m available for boarding through out the week. I can give your dogs walks and have plenty of time for play. I would give your dog the same love as if it was my own.
About: I'd like to start by saying I am located in Whiteside County for the time being. Please feel free to reach out with any questions!!! Take a look at my reviews also for extra confidence. If you choose me your fur babies will be in good hands! <3 I'm flexible as I work from home. Right now over the summer I'm only accepting smaller dogs, two a day -only- (I have a few dogs myself). As long as your dogs get along with others and like children we should be good 👌 I prefer to do drop ins and right now I'm not able to stay over night in anyone's home so I apologize in advance. I have a smaller fenced area and a huge yard. I also have dogs of my own so lots of friends to be made! My dogs are the friendliest dogs and have plenty of experience with other animals. :)
