“Ursa had a great time with Mercedes. I know she received lots of attention and exercise. I really appreciated the frequent communication and pictures. Mercedes is the sweetest person, and we'll definitely use her again!”
“Our last rodeo with Tanisha & Darrius was great per usual. They’re always so welcoming & attentive, making my fur baby feel so comfortable. We’ll truly miss them as they take some time away to refocus on their family. & looking forward to when they’re back to accepting intakes for boarding again. 💕”
“Manuel was an amazing dog sitter for my pup, Swoosh, and I couldn’t have been happier with the care he provided. From the moment we connected, Manuel was responsive, kind, and clearly experienced with dogs. Throughout the stay, he sent me regular updates and adorable photos of Swoosh, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Swoosh looked so happy and relaxed in every picture—it was clear he was being treated like part of the family. I’m so grateful for the love and attention Manuel gave to my pup. I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to book with him again. Highly, highly recommend! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”
“Chloe is a shy and cautious puppy. Janet sent me updates frequently during her stay. She cared about her happiness and went above and beyond to become friends with Chloe. I really appreciate her love for Chloe. I will definitely book with her again in the future. Now I can travel guilt free knowing my puppy is in good hands.”
“Kyla was the first stranger I’ve ever trusted to keep my Dylan and I am so glad I chose her! She took great care of him while I was away and he warmed up to her instantly. I am very appreciative and will be booking again in the future.”
“I have never let anyone watch my dog overnight but when I met Barbara for a meet and greet I felt very comfortable with her and her love and knowledge of dogs, especially pit bulls put my mind at ease. She was very communicative and sent pictures and videos to assure me that Lily was having a great time and Barbara and her family enjoyed keeping Lily company. I have an upcoming trip which I’ll be gone for 9 days and this really puts my mind at ease knowing Lily will be in good hands. I would recommend Barbara to others.”
“Cari did an amazing job we were able to go over there a week before and have a little mini playdate to meet her and her family and that made it so much more comfortable for me to leave my two babies behind for a few days. She kept me up to date and sent pictures while we were away and we were very happy and comfortable with her decision to use her”
“Dara was wonderful! We are always apprehensive leaving Nala with someone new, but Dara made us feel super comfortable with lots of updates and was communicative the whole time we were away!”
“Ann took such good care of our puppy! She sent daily updates, took her on walks, and I know her family all gave our pup attention. She was willing to give her eye drops when we found out an infection we thought would be cleared by the weekend wasn't, and was so generous in providing a crate and toys so we didn't need to cart our stuff back and forth. We'd love to use her again.”
“I can’t say enough good things about Shayna. She watched our 2 dogs at her house for a week. One of our dogs gets very nervous around new people and can be reactive. He reacted well at our meet and greet and Shayna felt comfortable that he would do well and he did. I felt at ease seeing how well they were doing with her daily updates and pictures. She really treated them like they were her own. We will definitely be using her services again and would highly recommend her to others.”
“I want to acknowledge how professional and well organized Iman handles her business. I am a first time pet owner and Rover user. I had to leave town for 6 days for a vacation. I had anxiety around who was going to care for my pet. I did a google search and stumbled across this platform. Iman picture was highlighted for me. My spirit felt like she would be the one to choose. I’m proud to say that I was not wrong in following that inner voice. Iman took care of my pet better than me. I enjoyed the warm welcome with a personalized sign. I was able to walk in the house to see Ace also had friends to play with and a doggy play area. My Ace normally barks at strangers but he seemed comfortable with Iman right away. He received high quality luxury style care. The activities, videos and pictures updates were comforting and entertaining to watch. I don’t want to give all her secrets away I love that she celebrated his birthday with a paint party. I also love how happy he looked the entire time. I was impressed with the level of experience Iman has. I also appreciate that she makes dog food and my pet seem to like her food more. I will be ordering food for him. I will also use Iman for all my future pet needs. I think I have hit a goldmine with her services. I have no need to seek out anyone else. I am throughly satisfied with the love and care provided to my Ace. My trip was extended a day due to unforeseen circumstances at the airport and Iman did not hesitate to provide extended care. I recommend her services to anyone who needs it. I promise you will not be disappointed.”
“Kori obviously had a great time at Jim’s. Jim is very organized and attended to my senior dog’s needs well in the quiet and relaxed environment she needs. I would feel comfortable having Kori stay with Jim again.”
“I can’t say enough great things about Kamiah! She took such amazing care of my dog, Autumn, and made the whole experience stress free for both of us. Autumn absolutely loves her, and it was clear from the start that Kamiah treats her like family. She kept me updated throughout Autumn’s entire stay with plenty of pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was so reassuring to see how happy and comfortable Autumn was in her care. I highly recommend Kamiah to anyone looking for someone reliable, loving, and attentive to care for their fur babies. She’s truly the best!”
“I love the attentiveness to all the fur babies and keeping them on a schedule - Katie and Teddy were playing with the others fur babies which is wonderful. These guys are my go-to boarders from this day forward 😊”
“This is the second time Harper has stayed with Bola - she is amazing with him. Whenever I drop him off, he just forgets about me. She's super attentive, ask questions when she's unsure, and checks in enough to give me comfort. Would return asap!”

“SO amazing!!!! Gionna is so friendly and such a pleasure to work with. Not only did she take care of everything we needed for our kitty while we were gone but she went above and beyond to accommodate our kitty’s initial shyness and with Gionna’s patience and knowledge of cats, she was able to get her to come out and play/cuddle too!!!

I appreciate Tara’s great flexibility and understanding of my house, schedule, and cat! Thanks for being kind and encouraging, Tara!”
“Taylor took excellent care of our kitties. One of our cats is diabetic and requires twice daily insulin plus some additional medications.

About: I love dogs. I have had one Doberman, one mutt who was the best, and two English Mastiffs.

“Mara is simply the best—highly recommended! My husband and I have never trusted anyone outside of family to care for our two senior dogs. One requires medication, and the other is extremely anxious, so finding the right person felt overwhelming. Mara immediately put us at ease. She took the time to meet with me and my dogs before her scheduled visits and was incredibly patient while I learned how to use the app. Not only is she kind and attentive with my pets, but she is also very capable and handled their somewhat complicated care with confidence. She communicated clearly, letting me know when something came up without causing unnecessary worry, and managed every situation thoughtfully—even things I hadn’t anticipated. Mara is responsive, flexible, and truly easy to work with. When I needed to add a service last minute, she responded right away and accommodated my request without hesitation. I can’t say enough good things—she is trustworthy, compassionate, and incredibly reliable. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my dogs.”

About: What truly sets me apart is my deep empathy and understanding of a dog's emotional needs. Having loved and cared for my own Pomeranian, Cujo, for 10 beautiful years, I am highly experienced in the gentle, attentive world of all kinds of pet care. I know how to spot subtle changes in comfort, maintain daily routines with patience, and provide the soothing environment that older, younger, or anxious pets need. I love not only watching pets, but bonding with them. Because I understand the profound heartbreak of leaving a beloved family member behind, I dedicate myself to giving your baby total, undivided companionship. Whether they need a patient listener, late-night comfort, or just someone to sit nearby and keep them safe, they will receive the same devoted, soul-deep love I gave my own best buddy. Because I am an empty nester and pet sitting is my full-time focus, your fur baby will have my absolute, undivided attention. My schedule is exceptionally flexible and open, meaning my entire daily and weekly routine revolves completely around the pets in my care.I am home throughout the day, allowing me to maintain your pet's exact feeding, bathroom, and medication schedules without interruption. Whether your dog needs frequent potty breaks, midday companionship, or an extra-long afternoon walk, I am fully available to provide it. Because I don't work an outside job, your pet will never be left alone for long stretches, giving you total peace of mind that they are safe, loved, and constantly supervised. I am home full-time, so pets are under constant supervision and are never left unattended. I have a spacious backyard with grassy areas for potty breaks, playtime, or just to relax in fresh air, all surrounded by a privacy fence with secure locks at points of entry. This is a non-smoking home. No candles or harmful cleaning chemicals are EVER used when pets are in my care and I always make sure their food/water stays clean and fresh. Pets are always safely leashed for neighborhood walks. I also have a fully finished basement that is perfect to provide plenty of extra space. If I am visiting the pet-owners home, I promise to treat your home with the utmost respect, and will double-check that all doors are securely locked every time I exit your property and all other guidelines given are followed. I will always provide regular photo, video, and text updates throughout the day, so you always know exactly how your baby is doing. Ultimately, I care for every pet with the same deep love that I gave my own best buddy.
“She is such a great person inside and out! Did a doggy date care to have my puppy aquatinted with her kids and other dogs she was boarding and everything went well! She even gave my puppy a bath. I was very comfortable and satisfied to know my dog was and is in good hands! Highly recommend!!!”
“Valeria is wonderful. She welcomed our baby in and took great care of our pup Peanut. She even noticed a sore on her mouth because she gave such good cuddles and petting. She was flexible and kind. Highly reccommend.”
“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.”
About: Hi! I’m Jocelyn, a dependable and caring pet sitter based in Chicago. I have experience caring for cats, dogs, turtles, and guinea pigs, and I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or just lots of love and attention, I’m committed to making them feel safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away. I understand every pet has a unique personality, and I take the time to learn their routine so they feel at ease. I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to provide attentive care throughout the day.

I can easily accommodate their normal routine to help them feel comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I provide a clean, calm, and pet-friendly environment where they can feel at home. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and routines.

“Julian is very good with my sammy. He was gentle and kind and got my sammy to do things he was never doing in the house and that’s with one day with him! Julian kept me updated with messages and pictures throughout the day which really reassured me and my peace of mind. Definitely will be returning with sammy in the future!”
“Jim was great, the dogs ran right in his house and started inspecting. Kinda like when you think your kid is going to want to stay with you on the first day of preschool and they run in without looking back. Jim will definitely be first choice going forward.”
“Amy was the most attentive, caring, and responsive sitter we have had for Alfred. Alfred loved playing with Amy's fur babies and enjoyed his stay. The backyard is such a great perk!”
About: I can guarantee your pet is cared for and has everything they need to be comfortable. Their needs will be prioritized and met. My whole life pets have gravitated towards me and felt safe next to me. Pet care is in my everyday routine because I have my dog Oreo. From the time I wake up, my Oreo is there and ready to start the day with me. He loves going outside first thing and then coming back in to eat and relax. We also have daily walks and enrichment activities to keep him healthy. I care for pets by providing fresh and clean food and water, clean litter or outside potty breaks, attention and enrichment through playing, and a comfortable place to sleep & relax. (and of course treats!)

About: I have been a dog lover for many years and had the privilege of taking care of a chihuahua and a pug throughout their lives. Being a pet owner taught me the importance of patience and paying attention to each dogs needs and personality. I understand that pets are family, and i know how important it is to find someone you can trust. Whether we’re going for a walk, playing, or just relaxing together, I’ll provide attentive and loving care every step of the way. I’m currently working part-time, which gives me flexibility to provide care to your pup after work during the weekends. I’m completely available on wednesdays and weekends. Your pets safely and comfort are my top priorities. I have a calm, secure environment with a fenced yard for supervised outdoor time. I currently do not have any animals so your animals can enjoy an stress-free environment. As for in-home visits, I follow all instructions closely to maintain their routine and ensure they feel secure and cared for in their home.
“I recently adopted a rescue who is having a hard time adjusting to new people. Kathryn did a great job with him! Despite him growling at her she was patient with him and helped him calm down so she could walk him. She was reliable and understanding. I then asked her if she could come again last minute and without hesitation she agreed! I would definitely work with Kathryn again!”
“Gionna was great! From the first message I sent to inquire through the last message after her last walk with Roxy! Her communication was spot on and her care for Roxy was very assuring. She came for a meet and greet since she was Roxy’s first walker. They hit it off and had great walks while I was gone making me more relaxed and less worried to enjoy my weekend away. Thank you Gionna, we can’t wait to work with you again!”
“Matt is !absolutely great with Luca!! He’s very accommodating with unexpected requests. He’s very easy going and reliable. Luca (my dog) loves him and looks forward to his walks with Matt!”
About: I enjoy being with pups and getting them outside! I have a 13 year old chihuahua mix who is anxious and dog-reactive so no stranger to dogs with specific needs. I work from home full-time with a flexible schedule. I am available to check in on your dog or take them for a walk during the day, most days. My own dog has specific needs (senior, anxious, dog-reactive) so I will be sure to follow any directions to the tee. I want to make sure you feel good about leaving your pup in my care.
About: I have 4 dogs that I’ve owned for 5 years now. I adopted two of them as puppies, so I potty trained them and taught them how to sit, lay down, walk off-leash, etc. I adopted my other two as adults, but I did train them how to walk off-leash as well. I care for them every single day, which includes feeding them on the same schedule every day, walking them, playing with them, bathing them when needed, taking them to the vet when needed, cleaning up after them to ensure a healthy and clean environment for them. I’m currently a college student who is out of school for the summer, so I am available 7 days a week at all hours of the day! In my client’s home, I will complete any task they ask of me in the way they ask to do it, as I completely understand that certain dogs need certain routines and strategies. I respect my client’s homes and the way they operate their home lives, and will do all I can to ensure their pets are happy and healthy.
“June can be nervous initially but warmed up to Patrycja quickly! I can tell June enjoyed her walks by the pictures and updates sent! Patrycja really went above and beyond to make sure June was comfortable! We both appreciated the help today! Thank you!”
About: The dog in my pictures was Winnie. She was my first dog and was a rescue from Tuscaloosa while I was finishing up my last year at The University of Alabama. Although she was more of a couch potato, she was a great learning experience for how to handle shelter dogs and dogs in general. We had another dog and a cat as well in the house with never any issues….even whenever Alabama lost believe it or not. I prefer the later afternoon and night shifts due to the fact I work in an office every day. Weekends and holidays I am free all day. I prefer to use the client's yard or take them to a park. My yard is only size appropriate for smaller dogs but still fenced in if your dog is not very active.
“With the busy schedules my husband and I have, we use Melissa weekly for recurring walks. She is great about picking up extra walks when we need, so our fur baby has some consistency with all traveling I do for work. Bruno loves her and I love the peace of mind she gives us! Thanks Melissa for all you do!”

About: I’ve always had a natural connection with animals, especially dogs, and finally welcomed my own pup, Leia, into my life five years ago. Since then, I’ve handled all of her training, walks, feeding schedule, etc., myself. I learned a lot from years of watching "It’s Me or the Dog," and put what I've learned into practice with my dog, Leia. What sets me apart is my mix of genuine love for dogs, hands‑on training experience, and a calm, reliable presence. I’m excited to meet your pup and give them a walk they’ll remember; one that’s safe, stimulating, and tailored to their personality. I am a college student at DePaul University, majoring in Finance and Criminology. I commute on Tuesdays and Thursdays, so I am free to walk your furry friend any day that isn't Tuesday or Thursday :) I have one energetic five-year-old Wheaton terrier whom I have trained by myself. I walk her at least once a day, feed her, play with her, and train her when time allows. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow your established rules and routines to ensure your dog feels comfortable and stress‑free. I pay close attention to safety — from securely leashing during walks to double‑checking doors, gates, and feeding instructions. My goal is to treat your pet and your home with the same care and respect I give my own.
About: I have over 13 years experience doing vet assistant and vet technician tasks and skills as a volunteer at The Animal Welfare League in Chicago Ridge, IL. I have been employed as part of the membership and philanthropic department at Lincoln Park Zoo from which I learned a great deal, stemming from my biology classes on taxonomy to zoology, to specific animal facts and conservation of threatened animals. I therefore know a great deal of educational background on animal behavior. I studied psychology and comparitive human psychology/animal behavior with a bachelors in science from IIT. I have grown up with dogs, cats, and ferrets. At Southwest Animal Care Center, I bathed, fed, walked, medicated, and cared for boarding and patient animals. I graduated with my veterinary assistant certificate in 2018. After graduating from IIT, I became a kennel attendant and learned a great deal about how to care for animals. Pet care is a daily task for me as I take care for two little fuzzbutt ferrets, Icarus and Agatha. Icarus often wakes me up with his bushy tailed excitement. I'm lucky to have such wonderful critters in my life. Right now, I am only offering dog walking and off-site at client's home services. From what I've read from the anthropologist book "Inside of a Dog" by Alexandra Horowitz, animals, especially dogs, crave human attention so being attentive to an animal's needs is to me, what's most important. This includes communicating with animals to know when they need a bathroom break, when they want play, when they want affection and cuddles, when they want nappy time, being fed according to what their schedule is, and of course, offering healthy treats (if allowed) and new novel smells, toys, etc. I can manage 4-5 walks per day with one or multiple dogs at a time 5-6 days a week. This is my main job and I'm dedicated to providing top care as if they are my own. I take extra care to be a courteous and contentious guest in the owner's home. I treat my stay with respect and humbly care. You can trust me to provide excellent care and keep everything tidy and clean.

I have been in the animal field for 6+ years, working in shelters, emergency hospitals, surgical units, and general clinics as a veterinary technician. I am highly experienced with anxious/reactive pets, senior pets, neonatal pets, or even pets with medical needs.

“Megan was a wonderful addition to our extended pet family! She was on time and always sent every update on every walk with photos. She’s a very kind woman and my pets loved her! She took my one dog on walks and helped my senior dog go outside and was successful in keeping my escape artist cat in the house. She fed them right and was just very accommodating to their every need. I will definitely use her again and I recommend her to you! Thanks Megan!”

“Ursa had a great time with Mercedes. I know she received lots of attention and exercise. I really appreciated the frequent communication and pictures. Mercedes is the sweetest person, and we'll definitely use her again!”
“Manuel was an amazing dog sitter for my pup, Swoosh, and I couldn’t have been happier with the care he provided. From the moment we connected, Manuel was responsive, kind, and clearly experienced with dogs. Throughout the stay, he sent me regular updates and adorable photos of Swoosh, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Swoosh looked so happy and relaxed in every picture—it was clear he was being treated like part of the family. I’m so grateful for the love and attention Manuel gave to my pup. I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to book with him again. Highly, highly recommend! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”
“I have never let anyone watch my dog overnight but when I met Barbara for a meet and greet I felt very comfortable with her and her love and knowledge of dogs, especially pit bulls put my mind at ease. She was very communicative and sent pictures and videos to assure me that Lily was having a great time and Barbara and her family enjoyed keeping Lily company. I have an upcoming trip which I’ll be gone for 9 days and this really puts my mind at ease knowing Lily will be in good hands. I would recommend Barbara to others.”
“Cari did an amazing job we were able to go over there a week before and have a little mini playdate to meet her and her family and that made it so much more comfortable for me to leave my two babies behind for a few days. She kept me up to date and sent pictures while we were away and we were very happy and comfortable with her decision to use her”
“Dara was wonderful! We are always apprehensive leaving Nala with someone new, but Dara made us feel super comfortable with lots of updates and was communicative the whole time we were away!”
“I can’t say enough good things about Shayna. She watched our 2 dogs at her house for a week. One of our dogs gets very nervous around new people and can be reactive. He reacted well at our meet and greet and Shayna felt comfortable that he would do well and he did. I felt at ease seeing how well they were doing with her daily updates and pictures. She really treated them like they were her own. We will definitely be using her services again and would highly recommend her to others.”
“Kori obviously had a great time at Jim’s. Jim is very organized and attended to my senior dog’s needs well in the quiet and relaxed environment she needs. I would feel comfortable having Kori stay with Jim again.”
“This is the second time Harper has stayed with Bola - she is amazing with him. Whenever I drop him off, he just forgets about me. She's super attentive, ask questions when she's unsure, and checks in enough to give me comfort. Would return asap!”
“Chelsea is such a wonderful sitter !!! My dog absolutely loves her and her family. It’s great knowing that my dog is in great hands when I’m away and Chelsea always takes great care of her. Highly recommend Chelsea !!”
“Liz was awesome! Our puppy had an unfortunate accident the day we dropped him off by houdini-zing out of his crate and subsequently stealing ALL of his training treats off the shelf. Needless to say, he had some tummy issues that Liz was so patient in dealing with. We felt terrible but her positivity and patience with him made us feel like he was in such good hands. Liz sends pics and daily updates. We’re so thankful!”
“Tonisa did a wonderful job taking care of my doggies. This was my first time using this site and was not disappointed. She went above my expectations and I’m a really anxious person when it comes to leaving my dogs in someone else’s care. Will definitely love for her to care for my dogs in the future. This is better than boarding facilities!”
“Shani (and her kiddos☺️) LOVED on my pup while I was away. Shani was an excellent communicator and sent update photos and videos, too. I really appreciated such good communication and how well Lady was taken care of. When you see your dog smiling in the update photos, you know it’s real. I’ll be looking to book Shani for my next trip away.”
“Bridget was amazing with our dog, Miller. Miller has separation anxiety and can be a hit or miss with sitters, but he warmed up to Bridget and her family right away. Great communication and felt extremely comfortable. Would highly recommend to let your dog stay with her family and pup of her own who is both adorable and friendly.”
“She was amazing and so sweet with our two dogs. It was their first time being away from home and we were super nervous, but she sent us photos, videos, and updates everyday while we were gone. Will definitely be using her again.”
“Sandy was exactly what I was looking for and I'm so glad we found her. She communicated regularly about how Bubbles was doing, and I felt she really listened to everything I said. Before we came to do a meet and greet, Sandy had obviously read the profile I had made for Bubbles, as she asked questions about it. She and her husband seem very adaptable to different types and personalities of dogs. Will book again.”
