“Couldn’t have asked for a better person to watch my two aussiedoodles for the week. Christina was so caring and very professional. I was able to book on short notice and pickup and drop off when it worked for me. She treated my pups like they were hers and sent pictures of them going to the park, playing basketball, and cuddling up with her. I’m so grateful for such an amazing sitter that truly has a passion for caring for animals.”

“Lindsay took care of our little guy for 10 days and he was so well cared for. This is our first time using rover or leaving our dog with anyone outside of family. I cannot begin to tell you how pleased we are with the love and care he received ? He had friends (other dogs), a huge fenced yard and lots of love while we enjoyed our vacation. We received regular photos and communication about him while we were gone. We will definitely be back…highly recommend Lindsay and her son!!”

About: My whole life I have always preferred animals over humans so as an adult my goal has been to turn it into my profession. I have cared for all kinds of animals from bugs to sheep, the least being livestock but i would love to learn more and better my skills in every way I can. With animals I am always down for whatever can or will come my way. In the most recent years I have been doing a lot of work with the pups that are a little extra spicy✨ after finding my own dog in a corn field and her ending up with reactivity and aggression, it really opened my mind to not just be a dog lover but someone who understands dog behavior to be able to keep them happy☺️ Unless I am out of town(rarely happens) I can almost always make it work! Even if it’s adding an xtra visit to make sure your baby gets everything they need🫶🏻 I care for every animal like I would my own babies. I like to keep things as close to normal for them as possible so never feel like you are telling me too much!

“Ben took such great care of our dog Paisley on our wedding weekend! It was great to have someone experienced with animal behavior and care to trust with her. We appreciated the picture and message updates of how she was doing throughout her 2 day stay - really made us feel super comfortable in that she was being well taken care of! We also very much appreciated the meet and greet we could do with him and his dog before to ensure that it would be a good fit. She seemed to have an excellent time and we would absolutely book with him again and encourage others to as well :)”

About: I have taken care of pets ever since I was a kid. I have experience in babysitting children. I also take care of Laya our family pet. I also have previous pet sitting experience in Wisconsin. Iny previous experience in Wisconsin, I have asked owners for written instructions on medications, favorite toys, play schedule, vet contacts as well as inquiring about safe ways to enter the house. I have given the quality care for pets including snuggles, walks, and fun games like fetch with their favorite toys and time at the dog park- if permitted by their parents. I am a substitute teacher. I frequently do half days, I'm doing mostly afternoons at my subbing jobs. I am available in the mornings and at 330-8pm for drop in visits and walks I will ask for written instructions on feeding, rules, any medications, and anything else I should know. I will send pictures and videos of what we are doing-walks, how much your pet has eaten, treats, playtime, and playtime.

Heather asked about making a judgment call that would allow better comfort for my pets as well. I have not known another pet sitter who cared more for my pets. Next time I am away, Heather is my pet sitter again.”

About: I’m a pet owner in Decatur offering weekday dog walks and drop-in visits for dogs and cats. If your pet needs a potty break, a meal, or some company while you’re at work, I’d love to help. Along with caring for my own pet, I help care for horses at 2 local ranches. I enjoy the everyday work that comes with caring for animals, including feeding, cleanup, exercise, and attention. I take time to learn your pet’s routine and personality, follow your care instructions, and send photos and updates so you know how your pet is doing. Morning visits: 7:30–10:30 a.m. Midday visits: Noon–4 p.m. Evening visits: 5–9 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays. Overnight stays are accepted on a case-by-case basis. I take a limited number of bookings so I can give each pet consistent, attentive care. I prefer to care for pets in their home so routine and stress levels are kept consistent and low. I follow instructions closely, adjust to each pet’s needs, and prioritize safety. You can expect dependable communication and updates while you’re away.

This is the first time I've used Rover, and it was so reassuring to have detailed reports and several pictures per visit. She also scheduled a pre drop-in meeting with me to get a feel for the space and meet my cat. I will definitely hire her again and would recommend her to anyone looking for drop-ins!”

About: I’ve had pets in the home my entire life; cats, dogs, fish, hamsters and Guinea pigs. I have been the proud owner of a pit bull, pit bull mix, boxer, lab and a St Bernard. I currently have a German Shepherd, Zeus, that is my whole heart. My son and I with help of tons of videos and research have taught our boy 20+ commands/words. I run/walk/hike with him 3-4 times a week in snow/rain/cold/humidity. We actively play and train daily. I put every effort into giving my fur babies the best life possible. I mean, we chose them, they didn’t choose us. I have owned short and long haired cats. I am familiar with the daily grooming for long haired felines. I currently am a cat mom also to a short and long haired. I am very familiar with kitten and puppy care as well. I have a full time job Monday through Friday. I am available week days after 3:30 and all day on Saturday, Sunday and major holidays. I will follow the instructions given to me for drop ins. I certainly wouldn’t put your pet in harms way playing indoors/outdoors or on a walk.

About: First off I have owned dogs/cats since I was 8 and I’m a huge pet lover! I have 2 dogs and a cat which are all very loving and well socialized with all types of pets and people! My husband and I have been happily married since 2018 and have 2 children. I am a stay at home wife and mom and love to spoil all fur babies and give them lots of lovings. I’m a big walker and love a good game of fetch, tug of war, frisbee, or just running around with everyone! I have a reliable car so I’m offering at home sitting where I’ll take your pet out every hour if needed and play/take them on walks. I’m also available to just stop by to walk/play with your pet for any desired amount of time. I am completely open and offering doggy day camp where we will play, go for walks, and socialize with other pets and people. My biggest hit is overnight care so if you go on vacation, need a couple nights/days to yourself, emergencies... I’m available to keep your fur baby over night and for long periods of time no matter the circumstance. I do not require your pet be crate trained if I’m sitting at my house or during doggy day camp but if they stay over night I require they be crate trained or atleast potty trained. I’m completely open to sitting/caring for cats or other pets you may have except for reptiles. While your pets are with me I will be working on training them and perfecting manners with consistent treats and praising for good behavior. I’m very patient and love working with animals! I’m extremely flexible and don’t need much notice for thoes times you’re in a pinch! If you choose to leave your pet with me then I guarantee your pet will be well loved and treated with much respect and gentleness!! I am currently a stay at home mom and will have plenty of time to give your fur baby the attention and care they need. We live in a smoke free environment and have 2 dogs and a cat for your kiddos to play with. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I respect your personal space while taking care of your fur baby!

About: I started pet sitting when I worked at my first vet clinic. And, because I love animals so much, I have never stopped. I grew up with dogs, cats, ducks and every pet in between! Currently, I have 2 dogs, a Jack-Russell mix named Jake and a Beagle mix named Macy. They are extremely pet/people friendly and they love new company! Also, I worked as a veterinary assistant for a a few years, so I am very comfortable with administering medications and taking care of your pets special needs. I will provide whatever accommodations that are needed and I will make sure that your pets feel safe and comfortable. Most of all, I will always keep an open line of communication with you. I know how it feels being away form your pet and I know the importance of regular updates and pics. I look forward to hearing from you and I can’t wait to met your pets! :) 🏡 House Sitting + Boarding 🏡 (Overnight) Evening - Morning; I do offer some flexibility, however there could be an additional fee if check in/out times are drastically different from what I have set. I currently work from home full time. This means I can fully dedicate all of my time to your fur babies and their individual needs. I will care for your pet/pets the same way every single time. And, I will always treat your pet/pets as is if he or she were my own.

About: I am a lifelong animal lover living on a working farm, so caring for animals is part of my everyday life. I own dogs of my own as well as livestock, giving me hands-on experience with animals of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. Being attentive, patient, and proactive with animal care comes naturally to me. My farm provides a calm, safe environment with plenty of room to explore, run, and play. Dogs staying with me will enjoy lots of fresh air, exercise, and enrichment throughout the day. Whether your dog loves long walks, free time to stretch their legs, or just relaxing in a peaceful setting, I tailor care to their needs and routine. I treat every animal as if they were my own and understand that each pet is unique. From high-energy pups to laid-back companions, I focus on comfort, safety, and plenty of love while you’re away. I am available 7 days a week for boarding. Taking care of animals is my daily job so adding in a few more is no big deal around here. Here is an idea of a daily schedule for your pet: -Morning potty break, breakfast, and walk -Supervised outdoor play with room to run -Midday rest, check-ins, and enrichment -Afternoon walk or playtime -Dinner, evening potty break, and wind-down -Final potty break and bedtime Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. Living on a working farm, I am experienced in supervising animals and maintaining a calm, structured environment. Dogs are always monitored during outdoor time, with secure areas for play and exercise. I follow each dog’s individual routine and needs, including feeding schedules, walking preferences, and activity levels. Whether your dog enjoys active play or a quieter pace, care is tailored to them. My farm offers plenty of space to move, explore, and relax in a safe, stress-free setting. With years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and livestock, I understand animal behavior and take trust seriously. You can feel confident knowing your pet is cared for with attentiveness, consistency, and respect—just like one of our own.

About: I’m a pet owner in Decatur offering weekday dog walks and drop-in visits for dogs and cats. If your pet needs a potty break, a meal, or some company while you’re at work, I’d love to help. Along with caring for my own pet, I help care for horses at 2 local ranches. I enjoy the everyday work that comes with caring for animals, including feeding, cleanup, exercise, and attention. I take time to learn your pet’s routine and personality, follow your care instructions, and send photos and updates so you know how your pet is doing. Morning visits: 7:30–10:30 a.m. Midday visits: Noon–4 p.m. Evening visits: 5–9 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays. Overnight stays are accepted on a case-by-case basis. I take a limited number of bookings so I can give each pet consistent, attentive care. I prefer to care for pets in their home so routine and stress levels are kept consistent and low. I follow instructions closely, adjust to each pet’s needs, and prioritize safety. You can expect dependable communication and updates while you’re away.

About: I started pet sitting when I worked at my first vet clinic. And, because I love animals so much, I have never stopped. I grew up with dogs, cats, ducks and every pet in between! Currently, I have 2 dogs, a Jack-Russell mix named Jake and a Beagle mix named Macy. They are extremely pet/people friendly and they love new company! Also, I worked as a veterinary assistant for a a few years, so I am very comfortable with administering medications and taking care of your pets special needs. I will provide whatever accommodations that are needed and I will make sure that your pets feel safe and comfortable. Most of all, I will always keep an open line of communication with you. I know how it feels being away form your pet and I know the importance of regular updates and pics. I look forward to hearing from you and I can’t wait to met your pets! :) 🏡 House Sitting + Boarding 🏡 (Overnight) Evening - Morning; I do offer some flexibility, however there could be an additional fee if check in/out times are drastically different from what I have set. I currently work from home full time. This means I can fully dedicate all of my time to your fur babies and their individual needs. I will care for your pet/pets the same way every single time. And, I will always treat your pet/pets as is if he or she were my own.

About: I am very conscientious and caring. I have owned and cared for a lot of different animals. I will put your mind at ease and will work with you for the top quality care of your pet. I have a wide open daily schedule. I am an early riser and very flexible to meet your needs. I have a horse I visit and want to fill the rest of my time helping others with pet care. I have experienced firsthand how hard it is to get someone you can trust to look after your furry family and realize it is a need in the community. I currently work with my own two dogs every day to ensure they get the exercise needed and make their dog food from scratch so they remain healthy. I understand that your pet needs interaction and breaks from being by themselves while you are away. Commercial pet boarding just doesn’t cut it and takes them out of their safe familiar environment. Raising their stress levels. They don’t need that in your absence. I can take that stress away and make some friends in the process.

About: I truly love all animals! They are just as important as us! But sometimes you, who are an animial lover too, may need someone who can be there to keep an eye on your loyal companion when you are'nt able to! Thats where I come in! I'll make sure that your pet will get the best treatment and care, just as great as you take care of them! I make sure they are well occupied, fed on time, given potty breaks when they need them, taken on fun walks and any other request you have for them, i'll follow through! And I always aim to be a punctual person so I'll always do my best to stay on schedule with you! Also, should you have any suggestions to what i can improve on with my services, I am open to it! Late mornings and Afternoons are the times i am most flexible with my schedule. So it that time frame works for you, it works for me! I have a flexible schedule and usually do not have many obligations during the week. I prefer that daily walks are scheduled no later than 5-6 pm but Drop ins are more flexible. I make sure to be a guest my clients home and make sure nothing gets damage. If a mess is made I will do my best to clean up, So if need be please share with me where the cleaning supplies are ahead of time so I know where they are in case something does need to be attended to.

About: My whole life I have always preferred animals over humans so as an adult my goal has been to turn it into my profession. I have cared for all kinds of animals from bugs to sheep, the least being livestock but i would love to learn more and better my skills in every way I can. With animals I am always down for whatever can or will come my way. In the most recent years I have been doing a lot of work with the pups that are a little extra spicy✨ after finding my own dog in a corn field and her ending up with reactivity and aggression, it really opened my mind to not just be a dog lover but someone who understands dog behavior to be able to keep them happy☺️ Unless I am out of town(rarely happens) I can almost always make it work! Even if it’s adding an xtra visit to make sure your baby gets everything they need🫶🏻 I care for every animal like I would my own babies. I like to keep things as close to normal for them as possible so never feel like you are telling me too much!

About: I have taken care of pets ever since I was a kid. I have experience in babysitting children. I also take care of Laya our family pet. I also have previous pet sitting experience in Wisconsin. Iny previous experience in Wisconsin, I have asked owners for written instructions on medications, favorite toys, play schedule, vet contacts as well as inquiring about safe ways to enter the house. I have given the quality care for pets including snuggles, walks, and fun games like fetch with their favorite toys and time at the dog park- if permitted by their parents. I am a substitute teacher. I frequently do half days, I'm doing mostly afternoons at my subbing jobs. I am available in the mornings and at 330-8pm for drop in visits and walks I will ask for written instructions on feeding, rules, any medications, and anything else I should know. I will send pictures and videos of what we are doing-walks, how much your pet has eaten, treats, playtime, and playtime.

About: Nothing is too good for our pets. There’s nothing I wouldn’t do for my pets. You can bet, I’ll do the same for yours! Dogs are my specialty but I love them all. I’m currently earning my Dog Obedience Certification from Animal Behavior College. I’m almost finished with school! I currently hold six certifications, including dog walking, pet first aid/CPR, and pet nutrition. My final certification will be in obedience. I’m happy to do whatever your pet needs and what you’re comfortable with. Let them out mid-day, clean up litter boxes, or refill food and water bottles for animals in tanks and cages. I have a little experience with giving some types of medications as well. I’ll throw a ball for your dog, dangle a string for your cat, and help your fish get unstuck from behind the filter.

About: Hello, and welcome to my page! I have been a dog sitter with Rover for several years now. I absolutely love getting to meet all breeds of cats and dogs. Every single animal has their own personalities, which makes the job all the more fun! I provide a service to put your mind at ease, while you’re away, that your pets are in good hands and well taken care of 🥰 I treat each pet as their my own, and take the time to follow your request to a T. Im a stay at home momma, my husband runs his own company. I run around a lot with the babies and for our company but I still have a lot of time throughout the day to make sure your furry one is taken care of. I love being outside and walking with your pet! Walking distance will vary depending on the shape the dog is in, and the area we are walking! I am able to pick the dog up, to take to a walking park near the home or spend time in the home of the pet.

About: I know what it takes for a dog to have a wonderful time! Too many dogs spend their days stuck in a kennel, and it breaks my heart. I also believe that it helps a dog to stay in familiar surroundings. I offer in-home pet-sitting, not just for your convenience, but for the best interests of your dog. I’ve raised dogs all my life. Over time, my interests turned to breeding and showing. I presently have my own dogs, Stanley and Stella. 2 mini shar pei. These experiences have made me deeply aware of what a dog needs to be happy and healthy. Meet-and-greets are essential for obtaining all necessary information in advance of the sit and making sure everyone gets along well. You’re entrusting me with both your dog and your home, and I treat that responsibility with the utmost seriousness. I’ll be punctual, and will ask about everything I need to know during the sit. During the stay, I will maintain a daily diary of what your dog and I are up to, so that when you return, you’re assured we had a fantastic time. I have been showing and breeding for over 30 yrs. we had a thriving pet sitting/transport company for many years before retiring to Wisconsin. Don't trust your pets to just anyone. Trust in my experience!! I am able to administer meds either orally or via injection. I am safety conscious and care for your beloved pets! I provide drop in service and house sitting. Iprovide additional services like watering plants and bringing in mail at no additional charge. I pet sit for bogs, cats, birds and horse. Little friends also like gerbils or snakes !! Trust your pet care to an experienced pet sitter ! Feel free to contact me with any questions or for more information. I work full time with Rover. I have a busy schedule so let’s chat and see if I’m available during your time of need a pet sitting or housesitting. I only do care in your home. I do not do any boarding. My belief is your pet will be more comfortable in his own surroundings. This makes for a stress-free pet sitting

About: I am a proud mother of a 9yr old son and an 15 yr old daughter.. My daughter is usually at school for most of the day. However, caring for both full time I have come to notice animals stimulate both kids and teach them respect, responsibility and routine. We are excited to em"bark" on this new chapter in life and cant wait to start. Together, I believe all 3 of my family unit would not only love, but sincerely enjoy even the smallest and largest pets while their 'parents' are away or just need some attention. With summer upon us - my schedule (and helping hands) have become more flexible. Currently, I am available every day from 6am to 7pm. Holidays, weekends, and every day that ends in "Y"! With respect to the pet , clients home, and specific care needs, I try to always keep an open mind and heart but keeping respect in the foreground.

About: I’ve taken care of my own dogs since they were puppies my oldest was 15 years old he’s finally crossed over the rainbow bridge ! I’ve worked at a doggy daycare for a year and 2 months as well where I specialize in cleaning after the dogs taking care of them and of course having fun with them as well The Animal Keeper is the name of the place I work at. I work with dogs on a daily basis, my job entitles me to work with all types of dogs from small little cute dogs to big Great Danes who think they’re still lap dogs. I will watch over them closely, if I sit down to watch tv they’ll be right there with me, if I go out to grab something to eat they’ll be right there with me, if I go out into the backyard( if you have one of course) they’ll be right there with me they will have the most enjoyable time in my care!

I was able to book on short notice and pickup and drop off when it worked for me. She treated my pups like they were hers and sent pictures of them going to the park, playing basketball, and cuddling up with her. I’m so grateful for such an amazing sitter that truly has a passion for caring for animals.”

We appreciated the picture and message updates of how she was doing throughout her 2 day stay - really made us feel super comfortable in that she was being well taken care of! We also very much appreciated the meet and greet we could do with him and his dog before to ensure that it would be a good fit. She seemed to have an excellent time and we would absolutely book with him again and encourage others to as well :)”
