I felt so relieved to leave our doggie Whiskey with Susan and her husband. They gave him so much love and attention. She sent us so many pictures of how he was doing and his daily activities. She walked him, played with him and gave him all the love I could ever ask for. We felt so great leaving our doggie baby with her and have already planned another trip in the spring and have it booked. Im so happy I found her on Rover

I honestly can’t thank Kathleen enough for watching my baby! She sent pictures and videos throughout the weekend. I know my boy was loved. He played all weekend and was absolutely worn out after playing in Kathleen’s backyard all weekend. Aside from taking such great care of my boy, she was super flexible and understanding of my schedule. My plans had changed last minute and she ended up taking him a second night. We also got into town a little later than I thought and she was kind the entire time! Kathleen thank you so so much for making my weekend stress free and taking such amazing care of my fur baby!

She was so great at watching our puppy! Her dogs showed our puppy how to ring bells to use the potty which was a huge help as we were potty training her. She sent pictures and updates of our puppy, and always answered the messages we sent! 10/10 I would have her watch our puppy again and recommend her personally to other puppy parents!

Phenomenal Experience with Michele G.! Michele went above and beyond to make sure she had everything in place for a smooth, happy weekend with our fur baby. From the moment we arrived, we could tell she was a genuinely kind and caring person—Skye immediately warmed up to her, tail wagging and full of excitement. Throughout our trip, Michele was always available for quick, friendly communication, which gave us great peace of mind. When we returned, Skye greeted us in high spirits, clearly having enjoyed her time. We’re so grateful for Michele’s attentiveness and warmth, and we will absolutely be rebooking with her in the future. Highly recommend!

We were fortunate to find Shannon. We have a somewhat special needs dog (Sandy) and didn’t think we could find an appropriate sitter. But Sandy quickly accepted Shannon and her two beautiful dogs, Lex and Captain Black. We were able to enjoy a worry free trip knowing Sandy was receiving excellent care. We highly recommend Shannon and will use her service in the future.

About: Hi! I’m a reliable and loving pet sitter with hands on experience caring for both dogs and cats of all sizes, from 20 lbs to 100+ lbs. I’m comfortable handling multiple dogs at once and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, or just extra cuddles, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I treat every animal like my own and take pride in providing attentive, patient, and dependable care. I’d love the opportunity to care for your furry family member! Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I’m home most days, allowing me to provide consistent attention, regular potty breaks, feeding, walks, and playtime. I’m able to stay flexible and attentive to each pet’s needs throughout the day. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any special instructions. I make sure pets feel safe and comfortable by giving them plenty of attention and supervision. In a client’s home, I respect their space while keeping pets’ routines consistent. In my home, I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where animals are treated like family.

Sonja was an excellent caregiver to our 2 12 week Bernie doodle puppies. We were nervous leaving them with anyone but she was very kind and reassuring. We provide excellent communication for drop off and pick up and sent daily messages and pics of them having fun and being loved just like if they were at home. She is a true animal lover and treated our babies as her own. We would not hesitate to call her again when needed. She deserves all 5 stars⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

About: I recently lost my soul dog, Wilson. He was a 14 year old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. He is in the picture with me. I have a second Cavalier named Auggie. I worked with Wilson to become a certified therapy dog. He retired when he was 10. When he was around 9 he became deaf. Therefore, I have years of experience with a deaf dog. I have experience with dogs from puppy through old age. My grown children also have dogs. I have included some of those dogs in the pictures. We have a bulldog, a golden retriever, a boxer, a lab, and several mixed breed rescues in our family! I have decided to offer my services on Rover to help fill a void after losing my beloved Wilson. I look forward to loving your dog as my own! I work full-time but am home on weekends and have extended breaks in my work when I am home. My home is set up for animals but I am also willing to provide services in your home. For care in my home, I have a large yard in a park-like setting. My house is set up for pets with limited carpet, doggie steps to lay on a comfy couch, windows to watch squirrels and keep an eye on the mailman. I am also available to love your pets in your home.

Miriam was wonderful, absolutely wonderful with Katie, our terrier rescue. She let her sit on her lap while she worked. She had a raincoat, then a winter coat, on her when the weather got colder for her trips outdoors. She furnished these coats, I didn't bring any. A 3-page report card was given to me when I picked Katie up. It detailed her potty breaks and told cute little stories about their day together. I received numerous pics and videos that I thoroughly enjoyed. I met Terrell when I was leaving, and he seemed just as wonderful. I would give her 100 stars if I could.

About: I have cared for my pets since young child and have owned my own 4acre farmette for last 27yrs. I have horses, chickens, fish, and an amazing Mail-Dutchie dog. I have a work from home career allowing me flexibility to be home and have also worked for a leading pet kennel/training/boarding/grooming facility that allowed me hands on handling for many different breed, size, difficulty, and aged pets. Trustworthy and reliable and enjoy all the wonderful and beautiful personalities our pets have and embrace them all! Dogs allowed on bed for sleeping time to cuddle but not on furniture. Prefer dogs that can feel comfortable in a roomy kennel should need arise to leave my home for a couple hours as to keep all fur babies safe in their own space while unsupervised. Well mannered pups preferred, Photos and videos provided during days activities. Attentive and loving, I’ll treat your pet like my own! I have a work from home career that allows me the flexibility to be with your fur baby for all their needs and attention during their stay. I also provide crates to be sure all boarders are kept safe if need arises to leave home to ensure safety of all furry friends. I have a well trained and behaved dog that loves the company of our boarding friends. I make sure to have 5x day let out and a tie line that allows them to privacy but security during pottie breaks.

Yesenia was so great. I was in from out of town and I had a gap between when we needed to be out of the Airbnb and when the class I came for ended. I needed some place to take my dog for a few hours. She was conveniently near where I needed to be. She attentively asked about my dog’s needs (she’s dog-reactive and has anxiety) and provided a safe space for her to be. My dog felt so relaxed that she fell asleep while cuddling with her. Would highly recommend Yesenia’s services!

About: I have both personal and practical experience caring for dogs. Raising my own poodle taught me patience, consistency, and how to meet a dog’s daily needs with love. On top of that, I’ve babysat multiple dogs of different breeds, sizes, and personalities, which helped me learn how to adjust to each dog’s unique temperament. I’m comfortable handling playful puppies that need extra attention and energy, as well as older dogs that require a gentler, more careful approach. No matter their age or personality, I make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and cared for as if they were my own. I am available in the mornings, which is a great time for walks, feeding, and playtime. In the evenings, I sometimes work, but I make sure to schedule pet care around my shifts so that every pet receives the attention and care they need. I am reliable and organized, and I prioritize making sure pets feel safe, happy, and well-cared-for while their owners are away. When caring for pets in my home, I create a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where they can eat, play, rest, and get plenty of attention. I make sure routines—like feeding, walking, and playtime—are consistent to keep pets happy and secure. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their specific instructions to maintain their pet’s usual routine. I ensure their home stays clean, their pets are fed on schedule, and they receive love, playtime, and any special care they need. I also provide updates to the owner, so they can feel confident their pet is safe and happy while they’re away.

About: I have always loved every different kind of animal out there, but spent my childhood with mostly just cats. 15 years ago, I adopted my first puppy, a German Short-haired Pointer, at the age of 8 weeks. My ex-husband and I decided to take the "treatless training" approach which was a huge success! Crate training, leash training, obedience training were all a collaborative effort and turned out extremely well. 10 years later, we adopted a sweet rescue named Gizmo who was already 7 years old, but became part of the family immediately. They have both passed on now to doggy heaven, but I am always the first to offer to care for other family member's pets anytime I can :) I'm currently working part-time from my home in Blackberry Creek and always have time for some fur-ball company. My 2 girls, 7 and 10 years old, are with me part time and are also very helpful, gentle and patient with our pets and hopefully yours! I have a fenced back yard with plenty of room for your fur-baby to play and exercise! If it better suits you, I can always come to your home as well for potty and play time :) UPDATE 6/8/26 - Since starting my Rover journey in 2022, I’ve had the pleasure of meeting so many amazing pets and their wonderful families. Along the way, our household has grown and changed in ways I never expected. In 2023, one of my regular Rover pups (actually a senior pup) became a permanent part of our family. Tigger’s owner had rescued him from a Chicago Animal Shelter just months before I began caring for him. As a 100 lb. Staffordshire Terrier, Great Dane, Bully, etc. mix, Tigger was a big boy with an even bigger heart. His owner dedicated to helping him become the best version of himself, especially since he wasn’t always comfortable around other dogs. With patience, training, and love, he blossomed into the sweetest, gentlest giant you could imagine. When his owner unexpectedly passed away, her husband reached out to ask if I would consider adopting Tigger. My answer was immediate: absolutely. I couldn’t bear the thought of him returning to a shelter. Bringing Tiggy into our family was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. My girls and I were lucky enough to love, spoil, and cherish him for three wonderful years before he crossed the Rainbow Bridge. We miss him every day, but are so grateful for the time we had together. Since then, we’ve also welcomed two adorable brother cats into our home. They keep us smiling and full our days with plenty of fun and affection. While our family has grown, we’re excited to have some doggy energy back in the house through Rover! When your pup stays with us, they’ll be welcomed with open arms and treated like a part of the family. We understand how much your pets mean to you because we’ve experienced firsthand just how special that bond can be. Our promise is simple: we’ll care for your furry family member with the same love, attention, and respect that we give our own. I work from home full time, so am able to provide your pup with all of the attention they deserve. They are free to run around in the fenced-in backyard and play at their fullest extent! Every pet owner has a different perspective on how to care for their pets. Some require a special routine for dinnertime or bedtime, while others require basic care with lots of love. I will follow whatever instructions are given to me by the owner…and I promise not to judge 😊

About: I have always loved animals and we have dogs and cats at home. They are our family, and we’d love to have your pets join in on the fun! I work part-time from home and can let dogs out as often as needed. I’m happy to visit your home as well. My schedule is flexible to meet your needs! We are very cautious with doors to make sure no pets get outside without supervision. We aren’t allowed to have a fence in our neighborhood, so I’ll put dogs on a leash or a lead (depending on owner preference) to go outside. Our golden retriever loves to play, and is great at sharing his many toys!

About: I’ve had animals ever since I was born, ranging from cats, dogs, fish, hamsters, birds, turtles.. And since I was young I helped care for them! Once I hit my pre-teen years I began volunteering at animal shelters, helping with animals of all kinds! I once even held a fundraiser in middle school for a local shelter who needed help gathering supplies for their pets. I have experience with animals who need medications or have special needs! I personally have a small elderly chihuahua, a calm fluffy cat, a young playful kitten. I’m currently a college student focusing on my education, so I have plenty of time to assist you with all your pet care needs! I’ll be available to help with your fur babies for as long as you need me to! I do offer services within my own home! I have a small chihuahua, a friendly cat, a small kitten, and a child under my roof as well. But, animal safety is my number one priority! I’ve taught my step daughter the utmost of respect towards animals! I can also keep my pets separate from yours if needed!

About: I grew up exposed to all kinds of animals. Ranging from cats and dogs to a parrot and an iguana. My family taught me that love for and from animals is unconditional. I've taken care of goats, I've had pet rats, built bigger tanks for turtles, created a pond for fish. I have lots of experience with animals and it's all over the spectrum. I feel confident I can satisfy your animal care needs! I work full time, but I personally have one cat and my roommate has two cats so it is a fun and fur filled home. I can care for animals in the client's home. I can take your dog for a walk or spend time playing with your cat. I am confident and comfortable with many needs that are requested.

About: I've been caring for animals for over 12 years, starting with my own dog, Lola. Since both of my parents worked, I was often responsible for feeding her, taking her on walks, playing with her, and making sure she was well cared for. That experience taught me responsibility from a young age and helped me develop a genuine love for animals. Since then, I've cared for pets for friends, family, and neighbors, including dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I always strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for while their owners are away. I am currently home for the summer, which means my availability is very flexible and I have plenty of time to dedicate to your pets. Once summer ends, I will be continuing my pilot training and taking online courses through Lewis University. Even then, my schedule will remain flexible, allowing me to continue providing reliable and attentive care for your pets. I have a fenced yard and one dog of my own, Phoebe, who is incredibly friendly and loves being around other dogs. She can play all day long and does a great job helping other dogs feel comfortable in a new environment! If your pet will be staying in my home, I would be more than happy to arrange a meet and greet beforehand so they can get to know Phoebe and make sure everyone is a good fit. Your pet's safety and well being are always my top priorities, and I will follow any routines or instructions you provide to help them feel right at home!

About: I recently lost my soul dog, Wilson. He was a 14 year old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. He is in the picture with me. I have a second Cavalier named Auggie. I worked with Wilson to become a certified therapy dog. He retired when he was 10. When he was around 9 he became deaf. Therefore, I have years of experience with a deaf dog. I have experience with dogs from puppy through old age. My grown children also have dogs. I have included some of those dogs in the pictures. We have a bulldog, a golden retriever, a boxer, a lab, and several mixed breed rescues in our family! I have decided to offer my services on Rover to help fill a void after losing my beloved Wilson. I look forward to loving your dog as my own! I work full-time but am home on weekends and have extended breaks in my work when I am home. My home is set up for animals but I am also willing to provide services in your home. For care in my home, I have a large yard in a park-like setting. My house is set up for pets with limited carpet, doggie steps to lay on a comfy couch, windows to watch squirrels and keep an eye on the mailman. I am also available to love your pets in your home.

About: My pet care experience consists of having a dog throughout my childhood and adult years. I've always loved the companionship of owning a dog and also visiting or babysitting families and friends' dogs/cats. With having a dog comes a lot of responsibility and attention whether that's feeding, letting outside, physical activity, and training. I'm experienced in all of those qualities. The pet care that I will be using through the new dogs and cats I meet are the basics of giving treats, going for walks, and playing fetch or ball. Those basics are important and useful for dog caregivers because any dog would love the attention and care that you are giving them unconditionally. I'm also experienced in grooming with bathing the pet if needed. Whether that's outside with a hose and soap or inside in a bathtub. Dogs are my best friends and should be treated with love and companionship therefore I would treat the dog and make sure they are happy and comfortable but also safe and calm at all times. My schedule is very flexible and in the case of babysitting or walking a dog, I will be attentive and responsible. Since I currently have a dog at home I take her outside frequently, stay outside with her and walk around the backyard or throw a toy and play fetch or even just sit in the grass and give her belly rubs. My daily routine consists of letting my dog outside and hanging out with her off and on while also letting her have time to rest and chill by herself. My weekly routine is the same as my daily routine aside from additional car rides, pup cups, or cousin visits with other dogs. The safety, trust & Environment of the care for the pet in my home and or my client's home will consist of making sure all doors are shut when entering and exiting the home or garage. Also making sure the dog is on a leash and well equipped when walking through a neighborhood. I also have a fenced-in yard so I'm experienced with fences and the proper precautions if needed. I can easily create your dog too if needed. Also water supply and refilling the water bowl as needed and giving supplements or medicine also. Also will have the clients contact information in case of emergency.

I felt so relieved to leave our doggie Whiskey with Susan and her husband. They gave him so much love and attention. She sent us so many pictures of how he was doing and his daily activities. She walked him, played with him and gave him all the love I could ever ask for. We felt so great leaving our doggie baby with her and have already planned another trip in the spring and have it booked. Im so happy I found her on Rover

I honestly can’t thank Kathleen enough for watching my baby! She sent pictures and videos throughout the weekend. I know my boy was loved. He played all weekend and was absolutely worn out after playing in Kathleen’s backyard all weekend. Aside from taking such great care of my boy, she was super flexible and understanding of my schedule. My plans had changed last minute and she ended up taking him a second night. We also got into town a little later than I thought and she was kind the entire time! Kathleen thank you so so much for making my weekend stress free and taking such amazing care of my fur baby!

She was so great at watching our puppy! Her dogs showed our puppy how to ring bells to use the potty which was a huge help as we were potty training her. She sent pictures and updates of our puppy, and always answered the messages we sent! 10/10 I would have her watch our puppy again and recommend her personally to other puppy parents!

Tracy was beyond amazing! We put her in a very strange circumstance of helping get a foster dog to us. She was truly so great & communicative with us! She helped us sooo much & it apparent how much she loves dogs! I only wish she lived closer to us so we could use her regularly!! 12/10 experience!

We were fortunate to find Shannon. We have a somewhat special needs dog (Sandy) and didn’t think we could find an appropriate sitter. But Sandy quickly accepted Shannon and her two beautiful dogs, Lex and Captain Black. We were able to enjoy a worry free trip knowing Sandy was receiving excellent care. We highly recommend Shannon and will use her service in the future.

Sonja was an excellent caregiver to our 2 12 week Bernie doodle puppies. We were nervous leaving them with anyone but she was very kind and reassuring. We provide excellent communication for drop off and pick up and sent daily messages and pics of them having fun and being loved just like if they were at home. She is a true animal lover and treated our babies as her own. We would not hesitate to call her again when needed. She deserves all 5 stars⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

About: I’ve had cats my entire life, I’ve also had several rodents, mice and rats, and I’ve looked after friends dogs. I have fostered many cats and I’m also very experienced with giving animals medicine. I work remote and will have plenty of time to spend with your fur baby! I just graduated college, I’m looking for an additional source of income to add to my remote job. I’m pretty open week days and may be able to make different times work on Fridays and Sundays. My schedule can be flexible, so feel free to reach out 🙂 I will follow all of the owners instructions, send pictures and text message updates. I can have cats and cat friendly dogs spend the night. I have two cats but they will be kept seperately. Let me know if you have any special requests :)

About: I've taken care of pets since I was young. I've always had a dog growing up! After moving to Sycamore in 1998, I moved into a farm. We had almost every farm animal, as well as cats. I've had all of my dogs from puppies until the end. Come summer, I am free all the time! I work at the school district! Just weekends are softball. My oldest is on a traveling team! I will follow what is needed to be done with your pet! Treat your pet like my own fur baby. Always lots of love and treats (if that’s okay with the treats lol)

About: I have always loved animals and we have dogs and cats at home. They are our family, and we’d love to have your pets join in on the fun! I work part-time from home and can let dogs out as often as needed. I’m happy to visit your home as well. My schedule is flexible to meet your needs! We are very cautious with doors to make sure no pets get outside without supervision. We aren’t allowed to have a fence in our neighborhood, so I’ll put dogs on a leash or a lead (depending on owner preference) to go outside. Our golden retriever loves to play, and is great at sharing his many toys!
