“This was my first time using Sharon and all went well. She sent photos and videos of Lily and took Lily on frequent walks. She was quick to respond to my texts. I really appreciate Sharon’s responsible and professional nature. And when I picked up Lily at the end of her stay, Sharon gifted her a bag of treats and toys and a thank you note! I will definitely use Sharon again.”

About: I’m fortunate to have experience with a wide variety of animals thanks to my cousins, who have two cats, three dogs, a turtle, and a horse. I help care for their pets regularly, so I’m comfortable meeting the unique needs of animals of all kinds and treating each one like family. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I’m currently finishing up breast cancer treatment and have intentionally chosen pet sitting as my primary work. This gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I truly enjoy spending time with animals, and being able to provide reliable, loving care while I’m in this season of life has been incredibly rewarding. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their routine as consistent as possible. At my home, pets have access to a securely fenced backyard for supervised play, exercise, and potty breaks, along with plenty of attention, affection, and a comfortable place to relax. In a client’s home, I follow their pet’s established schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any other care instructions. My goal is always to help pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away.
About: I have both a cat and a dog. Recently moved out to steger/monee. I can't wait to meet some of your fuzzy friends and help out! -Sarah Just moved to Edgewater and available from Mondays-Friday and before 4pm on Weekends! Anywhere that I can commute via CTA to walk, sit, or feed your pet. I have 3 cats in my apartment, although I have previous experience with a family dog.

About: Hi! I’m a Veterinary student with experience in animal behavior, dog training, pet handling, and more. I’m passionate about providing a safe, loving, and stress free environment for pets in my home. My veterinary education helps me recognize health concerns, understand animal body language, and ensure every pet receives attentive, knowledgeable care. I will care for your pets with all the love in my heart, treating them as if they were my own and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved throughout their stay. 🐾❤️ As a Veterinary student, pet care is already a big part of my daily routine. I am available to care for pets during both weekdays and weekends, and I can provide plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I live in a secure apartment building with controlled access and a safe environment. There are several nearby parks and walking areas where your pet can enjoy regular exercise, enrichment, and outdoor time. I typically accept only one pet (or pets from the same family) at a time. I do not board pets from different households together, which helps prevent conflicts, anxiety, and unnecessary stress. This allows me to give each pet my full attention and ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and at home during their stay.
“Wow! I am so thankful that Jennifer was able to watch my dogs this weekend. She is incredible! It is very clear she has a deep love for animals. She was so kind and gentle and understanding. She has a fenced yard so the dogs could run around and play. Her son was so amazing! He takes after his mom with his love for animals. I highly recommend them! You will not be disappointed. I felt at ease knowing they were with someone so loving.”
“He’s amazing. He took care of my 3 dogs. He has a loving family. He treated my dogs like they were his very own. He has a very easy manner about himself. He answered any question I may of had. He continuously sent me photos of the dogs. There’s so much I can say about him, but I don’t feel that I have enough words to do so. I would definitely have my dogs be with him again if I ever need to go anywhere.”
“Absolutely Wonderful ❣️ Mercedes & her family welcomed my SaxyPoo into their home 🏡 with big hugged & sloppy kisses👄. They kept him active with plenty of walks & play. Mercedes kept me abreast of my baby with a collage of pictures & messages. She is very organized & intentional about the care for each pet while demonstrating her knowledge of the family with homemade treats.”
“Ericka was great! She was available for a last minute trip I had and saved me - she sent daily updates and photos and I am confident my dog and her had a great time. Would absolutely book again! :)”
“I will 1000% use Meaghan again. She accepted my dog into her home and treated her like she was part of the family. From family outings, to walks, to hanging out with her and her children, my dog was always included. I love that she sends morning updates with pictures. Being able to see that she is calm and comfortable with Meaghan and her family is very reassuring. My dog is very anxious, especially when we go out of town, and tends not to eat when we are gone. Meaghan was consistent and patient with her and finally was able to get her to eat on the 2nd or 3rd day.”
“Kate is the best! I knew it was a match the first time I met her. My baby made new friends and had a great time at his "sleep over"😊 THANK YOU Kate for understanding my anxiety about leaving him with someone other than family.🥰”

“Emmi was great! She has tons of experience caring for cats and was comfortable administering medications to our two older cats…who don’t always love taking their meds. We loved getting lots of cute pictures and detailed reports after every visit.”
About: Ive owned so many variety's of pets from cats and dogs to gerbils, hamsters, mice, and turtles from 8-18 years old. I love animals and will always put their well-being first in any situation. I am currently a student at Fox working towards my Veterinary Technicians License. I speak Spanish and English!
“This was our first time using Rover. My husband and I went on a week-long trip, and we couldn't find anyone to watch our 2 kitties overnight. I was nervous because I usually like to have family watch them, as I know them. After meeting Khalia, I could tell she cared for animals, and it made me feel better. She did a great job with our little chaos gremlins, and they felt safe with her! She left everything nice and clean, respected our home, and gave us updates with pictures. The pics meant a lot! I'm a worried cat momma, so this helped with us being so far away. We'll continue to reach out to her when we need a cat sitter!”
“Erica has babysat our cat Domino in our home several times now. Domino is a cat that we took several months to rescue earlier this year. Consequently, she is shy and a bit skittish around new people. She bonded with Erica almost immediately! Erica has two cats of her own, so she knows a lot about them and their finicky nature. Erica has a warm and caring nature that comes across in the way that she communicates with Domino. She calls Domino her niece! Erica is fastidious with Domino’s litter box and feeds her twice daily. She sends us regular posts and updates regarding Domino’s antics. Erica spends time with Domino and plays with her. We miss Domino when we are gone, but never worry that she will be too lonely without us. We feel secure when we are away. We trust Erica with having the keys to our home. We have the utmost confidence that Erica will take great care of our fur baby.”
“Thank you for caring for Baby. It gave me such a peace of mind while I was away. Thank you so much for the toy for baby, that was such a kind gesture! Would hire again”

“Jacquelyn and Ryan have given me hope that great customer service and great skills can be the cornerstone of great service. They gave me fantastic service on every level when they kept my dog Roxie. Oh, did I mention that Roxie came home smelling like a rose and her toenails were clipped; courtesy service! I love the fact that they picked up our pet and brought her back, WOW! I would not hesitate to recommend their service to anyone. Thanks for keeping hope alive!”
“Kristen is wonderful with my German Shepard. Kristen treated her as if she was her own pet. I am very lucky to find a great Rover walker for my pet. I would definitely recommend her and use her services on the future!”
“Jazz was so very awesome. This was the first time we used Rover and she was a definite awesome choice for our cats. We had a video call before to discuss everything and make sure we both knew what was to be expected. I got a text and photos and video of her visit with the cats, so my mind was more at ease. We will definitely recommend and rebook Jazz 😊”

About: I come from a long line of dog lovers. I have a friendly spoiled 2yr old pit bull who would love some four-legged companionship. I have a young child in the house so dogs do have to be child friendly. I have a small home and any dog that stays here would have free run of my home, that includes laying on couches and beds. I do not have much of a yard so dogs will have to be leashed and walked for potty time, otherwise inside the house they are free to play and do what ever their heart desires. Why I love dog sitting I have always been a dog lover. I have had at least two dogs as pets since I was 2 years old. My current dog Boo is like a child to me. I love to spoil her with walks, toys, treats, and car rides when ever possible. About my yard No backyard but have plenty of room and beautiful scenery for walks. My experience administering medication Yes, I can adminster medication if needed. My dog is currently on three different me ds after suffering a severe allergic reaction back in August.
“Bayli far outdid herself taking care of my furbabies. They got a little rambunctious while their humans were away and created a bit of a mess, with knocking items over and what not. Bayli cleaned up the mess and vacuumed up their sheddings(long hair cats). Not only would I highly recommend her, I will always use her to take care of my littles in the furture!!”

“AWESOME SITTER - HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! Will be very happy to use Lynda again! I contacted Lynda the day before I was going for a spontaneous day trip to Michigan and she agreed to a last-minute booking for my dog Bob. Lynda was so gracious and invited Bob & me over to meet her, her husband, and their daughter's dog, Teddy. I was so thrilled Bob had a playmate for the day and the two pups got along very well! Lynda & Mark are fantastic people and even said to drop Bob off that night so I could start out early the next morning! Wow, did I appreciate that as it certainly made it easy for me! Lynda checked in with me the next day and all was well with Bob! I truly appreciated the update on my boy, Bob! My day trip ended up going a little later than planned and when I contacted Lynda to let her know I'd be late, she was wonderful! I felt genuinely fortunate to have Lynda and her husband watching Bob! Bob seemed very happy & content staying with them and I was extremely comfortable with this hospitable couple. I would highly recommend Lynda & Mark in a heartbeat and won't hesitate to have them watch Bob again!”

“Kate is the best! I knew it was a match the first time I met her. My baby made new friends and had a great time at his "sleep over"😊 THANK YOU Kate for understanding my anxiety about leaving him with someone other than family.🥰”
“Our pup was so well-loved by Patricia and her family. From the second she met our dog I knew she was in good hands and the regular updates and pictures she sent reassured us of that. Could not recommend her services more highly!”
“Thank you Kimberly for taking care of Ripley! We really enjoyed the pictures and the updates on Ripley! Also, we really appreciated you making sure Ripley ate something while staying with you! You made our trip away enjoyable knowing Ripley was taken care of! We would definitely book with you again!!!!😊”
“So great! They took such great care of my dogs and made them so comfortable in a loving wonderful home. They eased my mind so much knowing my dogs were in such good hands. Will be booking again!”
“Archer had a wonderful time at Karen’s. With his puppy behavior and not being around other dogs much I was a little worried. Karen was kind and reassuring. She kept me updated on his behavior through our trip. Archer settled in and made himself at home. She will be at the top of our list next time care is needed for Archer.”
“Michelle and Christy make me feel so comfortable about our dogs wellbeing while we’re out of town. They are great communicators and let you know what’s happening at home. I have used them many times and will continue to do so in the future.”
“Desiree was incredibly accommodating to my dog's needs and very understanding of her anxiety. Since this was Bell-A’s first time being boarded, I was naturally nervous, but Desiree took excellent care of her and made the experience as stress-free as possible. She sent daily updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that Bell-A was in caring and capable hands. I truly appreciate the attention, patience, and love she showed my dog, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter.”
“Highly recommend Rachel. Meet and greet was very good - she asked numerous questions so she would be fully equipped to handle any issue. We left our sweet Stella with Rachel for 7 days and we received several photos and updates throughout the entire week. Rachel is kind and sweet and clearly loves taking care of the world’s furry friends. We plan to book with Rachel the next time we go out of town. She did a great job!!”
“I am so glad to have had the pleasure to meet Stefanie. I was in a real bind trying to find a last minute sitter for my dog Shelby. Although I was a bit nervous because my dog usually travels with me, Stefanie assured me that all would be OK. I left feeling totally comfortable and confident that I would be leaving Shelby in good hands. Except for a small hiccup in times, everything was GREAT!! I would definitely recommend and l, will for sure be using her again. Thanks Stefanie!!”
“Sheree H. is the BEST!! It was our first time getting a dog sitter for our fur baby MILO and we were nervous initially. However, Sheree put our minds at ease by sending updates throughout the day she even sent video footage. I highly recommend Sheree for your dog boarding needs.”
