I felt comfortable that my two pups were well taken care of and having a blast with all of her dogs. My flight was completely cancelled due to the weather and I had to stay out of town an extra day. Cheyenne was so understanding and just made it work. She is so knowledgeable about dogs and just an all around amazing sitter! Thank you, Cheyenne from Callie, Remi and I!”

Jill went above and beyond to ensure Mia was comfortable, happy, and well taken care of during our time away. She kept us updated with sweet photos and messages, which made us feel connected to Mia even when we were apart. You can tell that Jill is a true animal lover—her attention to detail and commitment to our dog's well-being was evident in everything she did. Mia absolutely adored her, and we are so grateful to have found such a wonderful dog sitter. If you're looking for someone who will treat your pet like family, Jill is the one! Highly recommend!”

“We couldn’t be happier about the care our greyhound Steely Dan received from Derek and his family while we were on a 3-week vacation. During the time we were away we regularly received updates and photos that assured us Steely was being made to feel at home. Derek has a large dog, Ellie, who is quite friendly, and there were no issues with Steely and Ellie spending time together. Steely is sensitive to thunderstorms, and the meds we provided were administered appropriately with no issues. Finally, when we picked Steely up, he seemed relaxed and content. We always felt confident he was in exceedingly capable hands.”

About: Growing up my family raised German Shepard in France. I was surrounded by puppies and adults until my 20s. I trained and took care of them. I also took closer of a cat fir 5+years. Since I moved to Crystal Lake my wife and I have been fostering 30+ dogs through a rescue association. We also have two personal dogs that we are professionally training at NOCI, Bernât a 4 year old mastiff and Eole a 2 year old mini aussi. I have extended experience with all dogs of all size and ages 🙂 I am un a transitional period between two jobs where i have the possibility to work remotely. I am at home and available all the time! At home I have a fenced yard and 2 other dogs plus a foster. I have all necessary toys and can go on many walks. My preference would be to take care of dogs at client’s home.

About: Here’s a warm, friendly, and professional version: I’ve spent my whole life caring for the pets of friends, family, and neighbors, and it’s something that has always brought me a lot of joy. I’ve been on Rover for a few years now and have truly loved getting to know and look after so many wonderful animals. These days, I primarily offer drop-ins, walks, and house sitting, and I look forward to the opportunity to care for your pet. I don’t currently have any pets of my own, so it’s a real pleasure to spend time with yours and give them all the attention and affection they deserve. Here’s a polished, friendly paragraph you can use for your Rover profile: I’m currently enrolled in online school, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to focus on your pets. I’m available to care for your pet in your home five days a week, as well as on weekends, and I’m happy to provide as much attention, affection, and one-on-one care as they need. Your pets will never feel overlooked—they’ll have someone present, patient, and genuinely happy to spend time with them. Here’s a refined paragraph that includes everything: I take the safety, comfort, and routine of every pet in my care very seriously. I follow their daily schedule closely so that—even though they’ll miss you—their days feel familiar and uninterrupted. I also care for your home while you’re away, keeping everything neat, tidy, and just as you left it. With experience caring for senior dogs, I understand the importance of maintaining a clean, calm environment and keeping their personal spaces fresh and comfortable. You can trust that both your pet and your home will be well looked after.

About: I am an animal lover, through and through. Dogs, cats, hedgehogs, birds… you name it. I treat my guest animals like my own and love on them as much as possible. I enjoy taking cute portraits of the pets in my care and I send lots of photos and written updates. I currently have a female Aussie/Pit mix, currently fostering a female Blue Doberman, and have had Doberman Pinschers in the past from puppies through old age until the rainbow bridge. I’m patient with puppies and elderly animals. I check to see which commands they know and how they have been trained to keep them consistent in my care, and have experience administering medications to them. Before joining Rover, I frequently dog and cat sat for friends and family. I am currently fully remote and based at home. I have a lot of flexibility to accommodate your pet’s schedule and needs. My schedule may change in the future but I will update my info when that happens. I have one female 7 year old Aussie/Pit Mix and occasionally foster Dobermans through Illinois Doberman Rescue Plus. I have a spare bedroom to host guest animals with any bedding and belongings but during the day they are with me, within line of sight in my home. My yard is fenced (4ft) and only two steps to the yard from the door. There are no children living in my home. I live is a quiet neighborhood and can go for walks as needed.

“Maple absolutely loves staying with Carolyn. Coco ( a precious little Cockapoo) being there was a real bonus. They took several walks, and the two happy dogs played together all afternoon. Carolyn sent numerous pictures during Maple's stay with her. Thank you Carolyn we will definitely see you again!”

About: I’ve been working with dogs for over 6 years I was a vet tech for 3 years, and now I work as a part time dog trainer. I have a lot of experience with dog behavior and I’m very knowledgeable with any medications and dog health. I love helping or doing what I can making them happy! 🐕🐾🦴♥️ I’m currently working part-time, so I’m home the majority of the day and able to give your pup plenty of attention! I’m happy to go on long walks, have playtime, or simply hang back and relax—whatever makes your dog feel most comfortable. I also offer training for dogs of all ages if you’d like some extra help during their stay! Training can include leash walking, basic obedience, recall, place/bed, crate training, impulse control, jumping, door manners, puppy manners, and more. I can incorporate training into your pup’s daily routine to help reinforce good habits while they’re in my care! I provide a clean, comfortable, and structured environment while closely supervising each pet in my care. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, potty breaks, exercise, medications, and any special instructions. With my background in veterinary care and professional dog training, I’m experienced in reading body language, managing different temperaments, and keeping pets safe around new environments and other animals\. I also make sure every pet receives plenty of individual attention, enrichment, and time to relax so they feel comfortable and secure while in my care.

About: I grew up with animals my whole life, from smaller dogs to big dogs such as Akitas. I have a dog of my own almost 10 years old that I trained and have taken care of and I have had 2 cats, currently have 1 cat now age 10! I've been a nanny for years and always helped with their animals as well, from walking them, feeding them and giving them medicine! Love animals so much and honestly always wanting to adopt more. I currently am a stay at home mom, I want to expand my home to people who need care for their animals. Help checking in on them or feeding them or even having them stay if you're traveling. I have a very nice home with an acre of land to let dogs play in. I’m comfortable with walking them as well too if they need exercise!

About: Here’s a warm, friendly, and professional version: I’ve spent my whole life caring for the pets of friends, family, and neighbors, and it’s something that has always brought me a lot of joy. I’ve been on Rover for a few years now and have truly loved getting to know and look after so many wonderful animals. These days, I primarily offer drop-ins, walks, and house sitting, and I look forward to the opportunity to care for your pet. I don’t currently have any pets of my own, so it’s a real pleasure to spend time with yours and give them all the attention and affection they deserve. Here’s a polished, friendly paragraph you can use for your Rover profile: I’m currently enrolled in online school, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to focus on your pets. I’m available to care for your pet in your home five days a week, as well as on weekends, and I’m happy to provide as much attention, affection, and one-on-one care as they need. Your pets will never feel overlooked—they’ll have someone present, patient, and genuinely happy to spend time with them. Here’s a refined paragraph that includes everything: I take the safety, comfort, and routine of every pet in my care very seriously. I follow their daily schedule closely so that—even though they’ll miss you—their days feel familiar and uninterrupted. I also care for your home while you’re away, keeping everything neat, tidy, and just as you left it. With experience caring for senior dogs, I understand the importance of maintaining a clean, calm environment and keeping their personal spaces fresh and comfortable. You can trust that both your pet and your home will be well looked after.

About: I grew up on a farm, and ever since I was a little girl, I have always loved animals. I’m a grandma with plenty of free time, and I would love to welcome your dog into our family while you are away. Since my grandchildren visit, please let me know if your dog does not get along with kids. Currently, I have a Frenchie and a mini Schnauzer who is paralyzed. They love other dogs, but I do have baby gates to keep them separate if needed. Owning a paralyzed dog has taught me a lot over the past couple of years. If your pet requires any special care, i am more than happy to accommodate their needs. I am never gone for longer than couple hours at a time. I have a very open schedule so your pet with get lots of attention. I will welcome your pet into our family and treat them as if they were our own. Please share your dog’s daily routine, and I will follow it to ensure they feel at home. I understand how stressful it can be when an owner is away, so I’ll make sure to give your dog extra attention, exercise, and love to ease their anxiety and make their stay as enjoyable as possible. I have baby gates and can provide your dog with space away from kids and my dogs if needed. I will take your dog on walks and provide off-leash time in our backyard as well. If your pet requires medication, I am happy to administer it.

About: I am an animal lover, through and through. Dogs, cats, hedgehogs, birds… you name it. I treat my guest animals like my own and love on them as much as possible. I enjoy taking cute portraits of the pets in my care and I send lots of photos and written updates. I currently have a female Aussie/Pit mix, currently fostering a female Blue Doberman, and have had Doberman Pinschers in the past from puppies through old age until the rainbow bridge. I’m patient with puppies and elderly animals. I check to see which commands they know and how they have been trained to keep them consistent in my care, and have experience administering medications to them. Before joining Rover, I frequently dog and cat sat for friends and family. I am currently fully remote and based at home. I have a lot of flexibility to accommodate your pet’s schedule and needs. My schedule may change in the future but I will update my info when that happens. I have one female 7 year old Aussie/Pit Mix and occasionally foster Dobermans through Illinois Doberman Rescue Plus. I have a spare bedroom to host guest animals with any bedding and belongings but during the day they are with me, within line of sight in my home. My yard is fenced (4ft) and only two steps to the yard from the door. There are no children living in my home. I live is a quiet neighborhood and can go for walks as needed.

You can tell that Jill is a true animal lover—her attention to detail and commitment to our dog's well-being was evident in everything she did. Mia absolutely adored her, and we are so grateful to have found such a wonderful dog sitter. If you're looking for someone who will treat your pet like family, Jill is the one! Highly recommend!”

“Cheryl was excellent in her care for my dog Brie. She seems just as happy if she was with me the week. Cheryl updated us with text and pictures as requested. Never had a concern about my dog”

“I couldn’t be happier with the care my fur babies received while I was away from Emily, her sons, and their pup Gertie! She's incredibly attentive and has a genuine love for animals. I received daily updates with photos, videos and notes of their daily adventures. I highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter! She is so kind and loving to our dogs.”

“Autumn came through in a clutch!! I was so worried about leaving my boy with someone for 5 days. She made me feel very at ease when we met. She assured me my boy would be in goods hands. And he was!! Autumn communicated with me throughout his stay. She sent me pics of my boy chilling and having fun at the beach (which he had never been). I’m super glad we found Autumn!! When I need a doggy sitter again, I will definitely be looking for Autumn!!!”

“We couldn’t be happier about the care our greyhound Steely Dan received from Derek and his family while we were on a 3-week vacation. During the time we were away we regularly received updates and photos that assured us Steely was being made to feel at home. Derek has a large dog, Ellie, who is quite friendly, and there were no issues with Steely and Ellie spending time together. Steely is sensitive to thunderstorms, and the meds we provided were administered appropriately with no issues. Finally, when we picked Steely up, he seemed relaxed and content. We always felt confident he was in exceedingly capable hands.”

She sent regular updates and kept me well informed. We will definitely be using her services again. I know my boys love it with her.”
