“Milo appeared to have a wonderful time with Sarah and Todd. I have no reservation to leave him with them again. The proximity to their home and mine is also a positive factor. They were so positive in showing pictures of him to me. They also made comments about his behavior which I appreciated and gave me much comfort. I had no worries about his care. He enjoyed playing with the other dogs that they boarded and experienced his first cat! All went very well with his first home boarding adventure with this family.”
“She was very attentive to the individual needs of both of our dogs. The daily pictures and full report after were both appreciated. Our dogs will be back.”
“My chihuahua mix Rudy loves going to Karen’s. She takes great care of him and he feels right at home and enjoys socializing with the other dogs. Karen is very responsive and easy to communicate with, and she is very flexible and accommodating if/when plans change suddenly. With Rudy at Karen’s, I feel total peace of mind when traveling without him.”
“Shannon picked up and dropped off Buddy (as I cannot drive). She sent a few notes letting me know he was adjusting and eating well. She assured me he was "a Good Boy" while he was on vacation!”
“Kari is a rare find!!! I am new to the area and have used Kari a few times. Her and her husband are very kind and great to my dogs. My dogs used to come home from being boarded at a facility and sleep for days from being so stressed. I pick them up from Kari’s and they are ready to play!?!! Highly recommend ❤️❤️”
“I would HIGHLY recommend Vernita. She goes above and beyond to make sure your pet is well cared for and is having a fun and enriching time while you’re away. She sent me so many cute photo and video updates of my dog throughout his stay, helping to put my mind at ease. I will absolutely book Vernita again for pet sitting in the future!”
“Grainne loved these sitters. She was well cared for. When I picked her up, they (tactfully) asked about her wheezing (I’d forgotten to tell them). I think that showed me their love of animals. I would definitely ask them to sit again. They also worked with me on pick up and drop off times. Nice people.”
About: I have experience with all kinds of pets. From reptiles, felines, and mixed breed pups, to Pit Bulls and German Shepherds. I love them all 🫶🏾 I work from home for a minimal contact tech company. After my little ones leave for school at 8:30 AM, my schedule is completely flexible. We miss having fur babies around and will treat them as part of our family. I have mild mannered boys 8 and 6 that love nature and animals.
About: I have had animals from the time I was a toddler. I have cared for small and large dogs, cats, lizards, rabbits, fish, gerbils, and various farm animals. I will love and care for your animals like my own! I have plenty of availability to care for your animals, just call me or send me a message and I can get to you asap! I will respect your home and make sure the animals are cared for as well as I care for my own! If you need me to clean up anything, I can do that as well. A clean environment always helps me have a fresh mindset!
“It was comforting to know that Pepper was in a comfortable space, room to run outside, with plenty of people and pup friends to keep him occupied while we were on vacation! Kyle and Lyndzie sent lots of updates throughout the week too! Gave us peace of mind and we would definitely book with them again!”
About: I’ve had dogs since I was 5 years old! Currently I have a 85 lb lab/pit mix, and a 65 lb mut! I love to play with your dogs by playing with their toys with them, talking them on long walks, giving all the cuddles the want, loading them up with love and pets, and staying on their routine like they would if you were there! I’m a stay at home mom so my schedule is flexible! Willing to work with all routines and schedules. Also willing to bring them to the dog park! Your fur babies are in great hands with me! I almost always have open availability, just let me know what you need! Available as early as 8 am and as late as you need for the rest of the day. I have a fenced in yard and two fur babies of my own to keep them company. I also don’t mind animals being in my vehicle so I can take your fur baby to the dog park. I also love exercise so long walks are perfectly fine with me. Since my schedule is open I can keep up with your fur babies routine.
“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.”
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!
“She was wonderful with Radar! Had no problems, walks went well, even got pictures of his stay. She kept us up to date on how he was doing on his stay. We did not have worry one bit. We are definitely using her again for future stays for Radar. Highly recommend her!”

“Laura took such good care of our 3 kitties while we were gone on vacation and sent us pictures of them every time she visited them. I would definitely recommend booking with her and I would trust her to watch our kitties again any time. :D”
About: I have had cats all my life! Long hair, short hair big or small all need care, from pets and scratches to clean boxes and play time! I have cared for new born kittens when the mother was gone and elderly cats that need a little extra love.
About: Hi I’m Tatum! I currently have 5 cats with my partner. I recently moved to Illinois, originally from California! My partner and I raised 3 of the cats since birth. 4th cat was rescued around 6 weeks old, and last cat was adopted from shelter at 5 months old. 3 of my cats are very social and 2 are very shy (1 having psychological difficulties). My energy is always going up and down all day long, catering to each of my cat’s attention needs. I have not experienced cat sitting on Rover yet, but I have cat sat outside of Rover! I’ve cared for cats of all types of behavioral traits and issues. I’ve also cared for cats with dog siblings. I have only experienced elderly cat once, but I have multiple kitten experiences. Can’t wait to care for your furrbabies! I’m very flexible and open to different needs. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or concerns.
“This was our first full weekend trip away from our four senior cats for a long time. From the beginning, Jade made us feel confident that our fur babies were in good hands. She sent pictures and gave reports everyday. Two of our cats require meds including insulin shots 2x daily. We were so pleased when we returned home to find our kitties looking happy and healthy. Jade is going to come back in a few weeks for our ten day trip. We know our fur babies will be in good hands which gives the gift of “peace of mind.””
“Laura was fantastic as usual with our cat Axel. It was the holidays so it was a bit frenetic as I traveled abroad, but the videos and check ins for my elder cat aided my anxiety. For an overnight sitter, Laura is the best :)”
“Loved having Mary take care of my cat! She was very communicative from the beginning. 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!”
“I needed a last minute sitter for an unexpected event and Caylin jumped in to assist, easing my mind so I could be away. Her calm demeanor, and attentiveness is exactly what I needed so that I knew my cat was well taken care of. Thank you, Caylin!”
“Shadia maintained timely communication with us which took away a lot of the anxiety of leaving our pets for a week. He took our dog out for a walk twice a day even though that was not a part of our request and provided additional help when we needed it. He also offered to help with other tasks even though we did not ask for it. I am happy we got we got the opportunity to work together and I would gladly work with him again.”
About: 🐾 Labor Day bookings are still available! 🐾 We’ve been hugging dogs since we were kids, and we’d love to hug yours! Penny, Ciel, and our family enjoy hosting furry friends - we take care of them and our pups play hard with them! Please note: *We cannot currently accept bookings for unneutered/intact male pups *We host a large, rambunctious group of pups throughout the week - small pups and those who prefer quiet, calm environments may not have an enjoyable experience here, and we will happily recommend sitters who may be a better fit for your family Hosting pups is our full-time job - your pups become part of our family while they’re here! We spend our days with our guests, playing and chatting with them, and can attend to everyone’s needs regularly throughout the day. Our 24/7 dedication to giving your pups the best experience while away from your home makes us a great choice for day care and socialization opportunities! We accept bookings between 7am and 7pm; we will consider bookings outside these hours on a case by case basis, potentially for an additional cost. Our availability for picking up and dropping off is limited but we aim to be as flexible as possible. Reach out with your needs and we’ll work out an arrangement that works best for all of us! Our entire yard is fenced in - there’s room to run full speed! We can adjust feeding schedules as needed to accommodate your dog’s diet. In good weather, pups are free to go inside and outside at their leisure. We don’t require pups to use crates while we’re gone or overnight, but if you prefer your pup be crated at any time, we’re happy to do that and have multiple available. Male pups will wear a belly band for the first 24 hours of their stay, at minimum - this soft, absorbent band fits around their belly and attaches with Velcro on their back. Belly bands reduce marking behavior, especially in unneutered males. You may bring your own, but we can supply them, free of charge. Using belly bands keeps our home calmer, cleaner, and fresher by eliminating marking behavior and reduces anxiety for future pups by giving them less reason to want to mark over the scent of previous pups. We have indoor and outdoor security cameras in many locations that can be helpful to review if any safety situations arise. The safety of all of our pups is very important to us! (They’re also great for catching fun footage!)
“Tristen was always prompt and timely wirh her check ins and sent me adorable pictures and videos. My cat was very well taken care of! Would definitely recommend her.”

“Lisa was a fabulous caregiver for my cat, Rizzo! She is a loving and caring person and went above and beyond the perimeters of our engagement and spent extra time with him, bought him toys, and watched over my house and watered flowers too in my absence. I highly recommend her for any pet care or house sitting or both.”

“This was our first time leaving our dog with anyone other than my parents and Shadia was so great! Judy usually takes a minute or two to warm up but was drawn to his energy right away. He was communicative and patient with her. Highly recommend him! Thanks again Shadia, you’re a lifesaver! PS I’m so sorry she pooped in your house!!!”
“We were in town for work. Clyde spent the day with Samantha and her kids and dogs and he was so tired when I picked him up. It was exactly what we needed for Clyde. Samantha was very nice and communicated well with us. She took good care of our dog so we can enjoy some of our time while here for work. Samantha has a fenced in yard which made me feel safe with Clyde as he is a runner. Haha”
“Kari was very quick to respond to my request for doggy daycare. She was ready for us when we arrived & greeted us in the driveway so we knew where to go. Kari & her husband are very kind, friendly, and welcoming. Highly recommend!”

About: As a dog owner, I understand how important it is to have someone dependable and attentive caring for your pet. My own dog can be anxious, so I have experience recognizing canine body language, respecting a dog’s boundaries, and helping nervous dogs feel safe without forcing interaction. As a massage therapist, I am patient, calm, observant, and comfortable following detailed care instructions. I treat every dog as an individual and will provide reliable walks, plenty of attention, and updates so you can feel confident while you’re away. I am flexible and open to different schedules. Shoot me a message to see what we can arrange for you and your family to accommodate you appropriately. I provide pet care exclusively in my clients’ homes, where pets can remain comfortable in their familiar environment. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, bathroom breaks, playtime, and the pet’s usual routine. With the owner’s permission, I am also happy to take dogs to parks or on other outings suited to their personality and activity level. I prioritize safety by keeping doors secure, using leashes as directed, and respecting each animal’s boundaries. I also keep the home tidy and provide regular photos and updates so owners know their pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for.

I Have cared for new born puppies and kittens when the mother was not able and elderly pets that need a little extra love. Pets that are very energetic or relaxed. Pets that are having a hard time medically and need fluids or pain medications. I have cared for wounded animals and healthy ones. I'm available most days during work hours. When your fur baby needs love and care during the day while you are away. I can be there for pets, walks, snacks, medications, a simple check in and more. Every animal is it's own self and all need different care. When pet sitting while friends or family are at work or on trips I always make sure the pet has a good long session of play, affection, walk or forms of exercise, clean and full water and food dishes. Check for any accidents that need cleaned up or litter boxes that need tending. Then always be sure to double check the yard and home locks are secure before leaving.

About: I have 3 German shepherds, and I know how much care goes into making sure they are well-fed, trained, and taken care of. Your pets are family, and I would treat them as though they were my own. I also am a runner, and I run with my own dogs - up to 3 at a time (size and temperament dependent). If you have a dog who loves to run (or who needs to), I would love to have them join the crew. I also do graphic design work specifically for people and their animals. Happy to produce some pictures for you for an additional fee! I generally can do morning and PM visits for the pets! My schedule is NOT a 9-5, but I work around what I need to. Spending time with the pets is my favorite work I do! I treat every animal as if they were my own. That means lots of play time, attention, and overall just good fun.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities for over 15 years. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets while they’re away. I’m attentive, patient, and great at reading animal behavior, whether that means giving energetic dogs plenty of exercise or providing calm, gentle care for seniors or anxious pets. I treat every pet as if they were my own. I work part-time and set my own schedule, which allows me to be very flexible and accommodating to my clients’ needs. I’m able to adjust my availability for walks, drop-ins, or extended care, including weekdays and weekends, and I prioritize clear communication to ensure your pet’s routine is followed as closely as possible. I have a fenced-in yard and prioritize a calm, safe environment for all pets in my care. I have two cats who are kept comfortably separated with their own space when dogs are visiting, as I understand transitions can be challenging. I’m very mindful of introductions, happy to crate dogs if needed, and always follow owner preferences and routines to ensure pets feel secure and well cared for.
“I’m thankful that I found Andrew on here! Lady, our rescue has issues with strangers. Andrew and I scheduled several meet & greets along with a trial walk. I was extremely impressed with how gentle and patient he was with her, it seemed like a perfect fit. I went from being completely nervous booking to complete relief after her first walk with him. I definitely recommend him!”
About: I have grown up around all kinds of animals and had very many of my own, gaining much experience with pet care. In the last few years I have helped my mom with boarding and walking back home in particular. I also helped raise and train a puppy for 2 years so I am familiar with training and safety procedures for dogs of all ages. I also love cats—currently have one of my own—and can navigate other pets in the home if required! I am currently work 3-11:30p so I am available during the mornings and early afternoons to do any care tasks during the week and weekend! I like to be shown the home/property by the pet owner prior to first individual experience with the pet. This enables pet parents to ask any questions and provide any important information about the home or the pet. This will also reduce accidents on the property if I can be made aware of possible exits to watch for pets. These all help to familiarize the animals with me so we all feel safe and can work effectively. I also try to take the pets lead when I’m in their space, more so than when sharing a walk, for everyone’s peace of mind.
About: I have been a proud dog owner my entire life, which has given me a deep, natural understanding of canine behavior and needs. Over the past 5 years, I have channeled that lifelong passion into dedicated pet care, managing everything from structured daily routines to specialized behavioral and medical needs. Raising my own dogs has taught me how to handle multi-dog dynamics, maintain precise feeding schedules, and provide a safe, loving environment. I pride myself on treating every guest pup with the exact same protective care and attention I give my own, ensuring you have total peace of mind. I work a consistent part-time schedule on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays until 4:00 PM. This leaves my Tuesdays, Thursdays, and entire weekends completely wide open for dedicated, full-time pet care! On my workdays, I am fully available for evening check-ins, walks, and overnight boarding. Because my routine is highly predictable, I can easily adapt to your dog's specific feeding, walking, and potty schedules to ensure they never miss a beat. Safety and total peace of mind are my top priorities. In my home, visiting pups receive active supervision and slow, controlled introductions with my two friendly German Shepherd mixes. In your home, I strictly honor your established routines, keeping feeding times, exercise habits, and home security checks precise so your pet feels completely safe, secure, and comfortable.

Am very responsible, dependable, and absolutely cool under pressure. Am also very flexible and more than able to accommodate last minute and or emergency requests as well. Each and every client will be treated as my own! Thank you for your interest and time. I am very flexible and available 7 days a week- all hours of the day. Will also travel , within reasonable distance. Thank you- Stefan Currently am only available to take care of pets in their home, not my own. In emergency situations will consider my home or other options.

“Milo appeared to have a wonderful time with Sarah and Todd. I have no reservation to leave him with them again. The proximity to their home and mine is also a positive factor. They were so positive in showing pictures of him to me. They also made comments about his behavior which I appreciated and gave me much comfort. I had no worries about his care. He enjoyed playing with the other dogs that they boarded and experienced his first cat! All went very well with his first home boarding adventure with this family.”
“She was very attentive to the individual needs of both of our dogs. The daily pictures and full report after were both appreciated. Our dogs will be back.”
“My chihuahua mix Rudy loves going to Karen’s. She takes great care of him and he feels right at home and enjoys socializing with the other dogs. Karen is very responsive and easy to communicate with, and she is very flexible and accommodating if/when plans change suddenly. With Rudy at Karen’s, I feel total peace of mind when traveling without him.”
“Kari is a rare find!!! I am new to the area and have used Kari a few times. Her and her husband are very kind and great to my dogs. My dogs used to come home from being boarded at a facility and sleep for days from being so stressed. I pick them up from Kari’s and they are ready to play!?!! Highly recommend ❤️❤️”
“Grainne loved these sitters. She was well cared for. When I picked her up, they (tactfully) asked about her wheezing (I’d forgotten to tell them). I think that showed me their love of animals. I would definitely ask them to sit again. They also worked with me on pick up and drop off times. Nice people.”
About: I have experience with all kinds of pets. From reptiles, felines, and mixed breed pups, to Pit Bulls and German Shepherds. I love them all 🫶🏾 I work from home for a minimal contact tech company. After my little ones leave for school at 8:30 AM, my schedule is completely flexible. We miss having fur babies around and will treat them as part of our family. I have mild mannered boys 8 and 6 that love nature and animals.
About: I have had animals from the time I was a toddler. I have cared for small and large dogs, cats, lizards, rabbits, fish, gerbils, and various farm animals. I will love and care for your animals like my own! I have plenty of availability to care for your animals, just call me or send me a message and I can get to you asap! I will respect your home and make sure the animals are cared for as well as I care for my own! If you need me to clean up anything, I can do that as well. A clean environment always helps me have a fresh mindset!
“It was comforting to know that Pepper was in a comfortable space, room to run outside, with plenty of people and pup friends to keep him occupied while we were on vacation! Kyle and Lyndzie sent lots of updates throughout the week too! Gave us peace of mind and we would definitely book with them again!”
About: I’ve had dogs since I was 5 years old! Currently I have a 85 lb lab/pit mix, and a 65 lb mut! I love to play with your dogs by playing with their toys with them, talking them on long walks, giving all the cuddles the want, loading them up with love and pets, and staying on their routine like they would if you were there! I’m a stay at home mom so my schedule is flexible! Willing to work with all routines and schedules. Also willing to bring them to the dog park! Your fur babies are in great hands with me! I almost always have open availability, just let me know what you need! Available as early as 8 am and as late as you need for the rest of the day. I have a fenced in yard and two fur babies of my own to keep them company. I also don’t mind animals being in my vehicle so I can take your fur baby to the dog park. I also love exercise so long walks are perfectly fine with me. Since my schedule is open I can keep up with your fur babies routine.
“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.”
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!
“She was wonderful with Radar! Had no problems, walks went well, even got pictures of his stay. She kept us up to date on how he was doing on his stay. We did not have worry one bit. We are definitely using her again for future stays for Radar. Highly recommend her!”
