“They were amazing and great with our dog. She’s 100lbs plus and from photos, she made herself at home with the everyone and enjoyed herself! We will be booking with them again for anything we need to do with our dog.”
“Danielle is the absolute best! She loves her guests and gives them all the attention. Riggs had such a great stay and even got a special treat from Danielle after his stay. Would trust Danielle any day and hope to book her again soon!”
“I needed a sitter for both my pups same day and Eloise accepted the reservation right away. They came back home the same way they left, no scratches no bruises. They were a little hungry when we arrived home other then then that, all went well. I’ll book with Eloise again ♥️”
“This was my first time leaving my 10 year old Charlie with someone besides my parents. The second I met Bridget for our meet and greet I knew it was a perfect fit. Charlie stayed with her for 4 nights. She sent me updates and pictures immediately, and I knew he was in wonderful care! She treated him like one of her own and he had a great time meeting his new friends. I will absolutely book her for my future trips as well as daycare when he needs some extra playtime. I can’t thank her enough for easing my anxiety and taking the best care of my dog. Not having to worry about your animals when you are away is priceless.”
“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.”
“Nicole took wonderful care our our dog, which made going on vacation so much easier. Our dog is old, with health problems (including incontinence), and we were so glad to find someone willing to sit him in their home. When we picked up our dog, Nicole had washed all the towels and bedding we had provided to help manage his incontinence. She went above and beyond in caring for him, and we really appreciated it. For people with younger, healthy dogs, Nicole has a large property with plenty of outdoor space. We highly recommend Nicole.”
“I’ve used so many Rovers and she is absolutely fantastic. Takes care of my pup as if she were my own, and has a way better back yard for them to run around in. Great about photo and video updates, too. Highly recommend.”
“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.”
“Mariah was amazing! Panda loves her so much to the point he cried on the way home. She was very nice, patient with him and sent lots of pictures and videos. She kept me updated on his progress and even if something changes she was sure to let me know right a way. My fur baby loves her , she will always be his number one pick! We will definitely be back!”
“This was our first time using Rover and I'm so glad it brought us to Barbara and her husband. Excellent communication from the first message I sent through the app, to setting up a meet and greet, to her sending the best pictures of our pup during the stay. I would highly recommend Barbara to anyone! Her services are second to none!”
“My beagles came home healthy and happy. I've had them at kennels before and they get stressed. This time, happy to come home, but not stressed. Thank you John, Julie, Alex and baby. It's very comforting to know my puppies were being cared for, and having a grand time.”
“Rolanda was amazing! She kept me updated and sent pictures of Chloe throughout her stay! I can tell that Chloe was comfortable with her and she came back just as happy as she was before i dropped her off! I would definitely book with Rolanda again!”
“Amia,Joshua and family have been nothing but great to my baby Barry. He loves spending time over there, I definitely recommend them. They are the best fit for your fur baby 🙂”
“I am so glad I met Joy and Dan through here! Our regular sitter had to cancel last minute due to being sick and with only a days notice they were able to set up a same day meet and greet. I left their feeling more then confident about them and dropped off my boxer Lola the next day. Within seconds of us dropping off I got an adorable picture of Lola getting belly rubs from her children, she was definitely in doggy heaven. We recieved a couple more pictures throughout her stay and my mind was definitely put at ease and I knew she was in great hands. They will definitely be my go to sitters from now on and I highly recommend them! Thanks Joy and Dan!”

About: I've cared for dogs since I was 16. Having a dog of my own growing up helped with most of my experiences. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets, and I always treat each animal as if they were my own. I currently work part-time, so l have flexible availability for pet care. I'm available for walks, drop-in visits, and overnight boarding I’m always open to last minute changes if that’s what your schedule ever needs it. I take care of pets by feeding them, giving them water, taking dogs on walks, cleaning up after them, giving meds if needed, and hanging out with them to make sure they’re happy and safe. I treat as if they were my own with the love and respect they deserve.
About: What sets me apart is the level of personalized care and attention I give to every pet. I treat each animal as if they were my own—whether that means being extra gentle with senior dogs, helping reinforce training with energetic puppies, or making sure your shy or anxious pet feels safe and loved. I have experience with a wide range of breeds, ages, and temperaments, and I pay close attention to your pet’s unique needs and routine. Communication is key, so I always keep owners updated with photos and notes to give you peace of mind while you’re away. You can trust that your pet will be in a caring, responsible, and attentive environment. As a healthcare worker, I usually work three days a week, which gives me a very flexible schedule the rest of the week to focus on pet care. On my days off, I love spending time with animals—it’s honestly one of the best ways to unwind and bring joy into my routine. Whether it’s daily drop-ins or walks, I have the time, energy, and passion to give your pet the attention they deserve. My healthcare background also makes me dependable, calm under pressure, and very attentive to detail—especially when it comes to routines, medications, or special care needs. What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of genuine care and attention I give every pet. I understand that every dog has their own personality, needs, and routine—and I make it my priority to provide care that’s tailored to them. I have experience with dogs of all ages, from playful puppies who need consistency and structure to sweet senior dogs who need patience, gentleness, and extra love. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and always keep pet parents in the loop with updates and photos. Whether your pup needs a walking buddy, cuddle partner, or someone to reinforce training, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home.
“It was our very first time using this service and we were a bit nervous. Jeff was available even on the short notice. From the first time we met Jeff we felt good. He is an experienced sitter. Cats felt comfortable around him. Jeff was very responsible. He ensured we received photos from each visit. Cats looked good and relaxed. Definitely will be calling him again in the future.”
About: I have had animals since I was a kid. We fostered kittens, dogs, and I have owned dogs and cats my whole life. My sister works at an animal shelter as well and has taught me many things to keep animals safe. I currently work full time so I typically am free at lunch, after work, and all weekends! I am flexible as well in the mornings. I am aware of all doors and locks. I make sure to ask specific questions regarding the needs of pets and what the owner needs such as check ins with photos, scooping cat litter, adjusting air, replenishing food and water, etc.
About: Hello! I’ve cared for dogs and cats for years — including rescues, seniors, and pups with lots of energy! I’m patient, reliable, and comfortable with feeding routines, meds, and special care needs. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I promise to keep you updated with cute pictures and messages throughout their stay. Your fur baby’s comfort and safety come first! 🐕✨ I am currently working part time.

(Chihuahua mixes and a heeler mix.) they are crate trained so if you’re more comfortable with them staying separated from your baby(ies) that is absolutely no problem, depending on the duration of the stay.
“They should have more than 5 stars for her. One of our dogs had a medical issue. She assessed the situation and helped us feel at ease about what happened. You can tell that she cares a great deal about animals. We will book again. Thank you so much”
“Olivia took great care of our boys. She put our minds at ease and did everything we asked. She’s very kind and compassionate. We will definitely ask her to watch the boys again!!”
About: I have had the pleasure of taking care of 9 dogs in my life, 5 of them lived with me (at different times) I have had German Shepherds, Yorkies, Havanese, PitBull/Boxer, and Maltese. I have also taken care of Labradors, Jack Russel Terriers, Pugs, and Chihuahuas. I am not scared of dogs, and I am also a teacher so I have a lot of patience. I don't get frustrated when they make mistakes (people make them too) but I am willing to work with them to correct their behavior. I am available on weekends, evenings during the week during the school year but I am flexible during the summer and other times I am on break. I am a mom to two wonderful dogs, Lola and Groot.
About: Taking care of your animal will be my number one priority. I love animals, I will be more than attentive to their needs and accommodate anything you would like.

I love getting pets toys, and fancy food sometimes to spoil them so expect that (if it’s fone with the owner) of course. I can’t wait to meet you and your lovely pet!
“Samantha is the best! So greatful she was our sitter. Samantha followed all the instructions I had to take care of my senior (18 yr) cat. Her and Noel became friends after a few days. I would definitely trust Samantha with my pets. She was even nice enough to leave additional lights on knowing we were going to come home late.”
About: I have always loved animals, especially dogs! I am a responsible, energetic, caring person that would love to take care of your pet! Your pets are part of the family, just like mine. I have experience dog sitting small to medium sized dogs. I am not strong enough to walk or care for larger dogs (unless of course they are great on the leash walking). I do not discriminate against any kind of breeds. I have two dogs of my own that are chihuahua and chihuahua mix. I have cared for small chihuahuas to larger pit bulls. Just message me with your needs as I work part time as a dental hygienist so I will work around my hours. I, also, volunteer at a wild animal rescue where I get to care for raccoons, foxes, deer, possums, squirrels and rabbits under the supervision of a veterinarian. I love animals of all kinds! Caring for animals is a passion of mine !

About: Lifelong animal lover experienced in river walks, companion feedings, soothing chest rubs, treat distribution, and earning a sly cats trust. I will make sure your pets are happy, SAFE, and completely spoiled while you’re away! After a recent career shift- a friend suggested I try Rover to generate a bit of income. Bonus: an opportunity to do something I LOVE! I’m just getting started (here), but I look forward to meeting your fur family. I closely monitor outdoor time to ensure the pet is secure in the yard. I do NOT have a fence (all neighbors do). I will either clip them to the ground lead (125 lb hold), or long leash them in hand (I prefer your dog wear a harness while in my care). For their safety and security, your pet will NOT be outside without supervision. When out walking I will remain aware and assess surroundings to prepare for any triggers the dog may have and offer redirection. I will closely follow your schedule and preferences to make transition of care easier.
About: I have loved and owned dogs since i was 10, I'm not a professional trainer but i have trained my own dogs in obedience and nosework. I work remotely and am home all day, providing attentive, consistent care and companionship to ensure your dog feels safe, loved, and never alone while your gone. I have a secure 4-ft chain link fence and supervise your pet during outdoor time. My two dogs and a friendly visitor dog provide great company and play opportunities.
“Eloise was great! She has a nice fenced yard that our outdoor loving pup loved. Eloise is clearly a kind dog lover who appreciated our sweet girl. Eloise was flexible and understanding whem our plans inadvertently changed. I highly Recommend her !!”

“Danielle did an amazing job! It was our first time using Rover and leaving our dog somewhere and she made the process as smooth as could be. She walked us through her house , how she handles the dog , and was so patient with us and answered all our questions. Oscar had a blast and can't wait to book her again!”
About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals as long as I can remember! My parents adopted our first dog when I was only 4 years old. Tala was a Siberian husky that I took care of daily from a very young age. Throughout my childhood I grew up with medium/larger dogs such as German shepherds, huskies, pitbulls, and a Great Dane. My love for animals didn’t stop there! As a kid I regularly helped a family friend on her farm take care of wild and farm animals that she rehabbed such as bunnies, raccoons, squirrels, chickens, horses, cows, goats, etc. Now that I live on my own with my husband, we own 2 silly orange cats (4yo) and 2 dogs. Our 2 beagles, Starla(6yo) and Ellie (4yo), are ‘retired research hero’s’, meaning they were lab test animals for human medical research, they even have tattoos inside their right ears! They do great meeting new animals. But due to their life in the lab and awkward lack of learning other dogs body natural language, they require a meet and greet with any pets that plan on staying in our home just to ensure all animals clearly feel comfortable with each other. They are beyond friendly dogs that don’t know what a ‘stranger’ is and will accept love from anyone. Starla has seizures, and because of this I have plenty of experience with handling her during an episode. I would more than willing to board/take care of another pet who suffers from medical conditions! I personally know how nerve racking it is to leave our little fur babies life in the hands of another person that we hardly know. Ellie has a poultry allergy and we’ve become pretty good at checking the labels before feeding anything to her. It was quite surprising to see just how many pet items have poultry in them! I also suffer from a nut allergy, so I also know beyond animals just how dangerous it can be. You can feel more than safe trusting me with your fur babies allergies! I take all forms of special conditions very seriously. I’m currently a college student at ONU, but live in my own home that I own off campus. I do not work at this time and have very few classes that are physically on campus. I love meeting new people and animals especially. I have a fenced in yard where my beagles love to run around. While it is safely fence in, my animals are never left unattended as my animals safety is always a priority. During nice weather I love to take my dogs on walks out at Perry Farms or the Kankakee State Park. These are the places I choose for the safest and cleanest walking paths to keep my pups safe. Before walks I always check the pavement to ensure safe temperature for the little paws. I also spray my pups with Wondercides natural flea & tick repellent to further ensure safety for their health when going on walks. My house is only 1 level. The only stairs your pet would be required to climb are the ones going in and out of the house. While I do have a basement, only the cats are allowed down there. I am still new to the pet sitting world, but I am so excited!
“Bridget did an awesome job with Ardal! She took great care of him and sent me a few updates, which I appreciated. I have a very tired, very happy pup and will definitely be requesting future daycare appointments!”
About: ‼️Please read entirety of bio prior to sending a booking request Please note: My Rover profile information may not always be the most up to date, as I also own and operate my own pet care business - but I still get notifications here! Please message me so we can discuss your specific needs and availability! Hi, I’m Bee! I’m a medically retired police officer turned professional pet care provider. Pet care is my full-time work, not a side hobby. I take a calm, structured, safety-first approach and focus on low-stress care that allows pets to feel secure, respected, and comfortable. I have years of hands-on experience with pets of all sizes, ages, and temperaments, including seniors, rescues, anxious dogs, puppies, large breeds, and special-needs pets. ⸻ What I Offer • In-home dog boarding in a low-volume, structured environment • Structured dog daycare with supervised play and rest breaks • Drop-in visits for feeding, potty breaks, enrichment, and medications • Dog walks tailored to your dog’s comfort, energy level (must not pull heavily on leash) • Care for seniors, rescues, anxious, and special-needs dogs • Slow, intentional introductions and individualized care plans • Solo or one-on-one care options when appropriate for daycare and boarding • Real-time updates with plenty of photos and detailed written notes ‼️I do not provide boarding or daycare for cats, and I do not offer overnight stays in clients’ homes. ‼️Meet and Greets are mandatory to schedule any service. ‼️My two dogs, Trooper and Moose, will NOT be present for the meet and greet for boarding and daycare ‼️Dates are not reserved unless a deposit is prepaid in advance. ‼️Dogs must be crate trained to stay at Bee’s Bed and Barkfast daycare and boarding. This is a non negotiable for safety, feeding, rest and safe transitions. ‼️Boarding can be booked anytime, as long as the dates are within the next 3 months. I do not book out more than 3 months in advance. I am available generally anytime between sunrise and sunset. Due to a vision disability, I may occasionally need to adjust timing on very rainy days, and I do not drive after dark. If weather requires a schedule shift, I’ll always communicate in advance and ensure your pet still receives attentive, high-quality care. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and emotional well-being are my top priorities. I provide intentional, structured care designed to reduce stress, prevent issues before they happen, and create a calm, predictable experience for both pets and owners. This applies whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or in mine. How I care for pets & homes: • Safety-first, prevention-focused handling at all times • Calm routines that prioritize rest, enrichment, and emotional regulation • Respectful care of your home… clean, secure, and exactly how you left it • Doors, gates, leashes, and feeding instructions double-checked every visit • Clear, proactive communication so you’re never left wondering how things are going Boarding & Daycare Environment: • Low-volume, home-based care, not a brick and mortar storefront or warehouse-style daycare • Structured daycare with supervised interactions and enforced rest breaks • Slow, intentional introductions tailored to each dog’s comfort level • Solo or one-on-one care available for dogs who need space or prefer independence at an increased rate • Crate training mandatory to ensure smooth transitions and safety How I differ from other sitters: • I do not force interactions or “let dogs work it out” • I do not overbook or rotate large groups of unfamiliar dogs • I do not take a one-size-fits-all approach Instead, I focus on individualized care, clear boundaries, and calm structure, the kind of environment where dogs can truly settle, decompress, and feel secure.
“Noel was amazing! It was our first time leaving our puppy with someone during the day. He was so excited to see her every morning. We cannot recommend Noel enough. Will be using her in the future!!!!”
About: In the past I’ve had foster dogs from the shelters and they would ask me for more help if they were needing extra help with the dogs. I’m available almost anytime after noon. I am looking for a new thing to start doing I love animals and I have experience with watching dogs and cats. If needed I can train the dogs and watch the house if my clients need me to. I can clean up messes if an accident occurs.
“Alex is an amazing dog handler. I can say that simply having my dog with her once a week for a few months led to a noticable improvement for on leash walking skills. Awesome communication and my dog always runs up to greet her for their day together.”
“She was very warm and welcoming from the very beginning..My dogs took to her! She answer all my questions and concerns.I will definitely recommend her to anyone who needs their dog looked after.”

“I can’t say enough about how well Xena loves coming to daycare with Michelle and Christy. They treat my dog as if it’s their own !! Great communication and highly recommend!”
About: My husband and I are very unique. We would have a farm if we could. We live in a smaller home, but have so much love between our pets and kids. I hope we can raise our 3 kids to love animals as much as we do. I have been a pet sitter for about 15 years, but grew up in a house of animals. My family's huge animal lovers. I have stayed for weeks at a time with families, dog walked, issued medicine to pets, and just simply stopped in to let them out and hang for a bit. We have had dogs and cats stay with us while families are on vacation and made it work perfectly. My kids knowing they are small, are great w the animals too. I am just excited to make your fur baby feel safe and loved while you're away. *Update: We just added bathing and nail clipping as an add on option! My husband's mom owned the Canine Clipper that was in business for over 30 years. He grew up as cheap labor for 15 years in the shop washing, drying and trimming nails of any cats and dogs that came. We do not offer grooming services as that is not in our wheelhouse. Have you pet come home feeling and smelling fresh! I just had our new baby born on August 8th this year. I have three boys that I am obsessed with. I love being a boy mama 💙 I am a personal trainer but have cut back on hours so I can hang w my kids while they are young. I sometimes forget about how I was a nanny for 10 years and a dog sitter for about 15. I would love to do my passion again knowing I have so much more free time at home. My 5 year old is in school all day, my 3 year old has preschool twice a week for 2 hrs, and my newborn just goes for the ride. I'm always home on the weekends, and during the week I'm always looking to do something-which I would love to show my kids how to treat animals. If your pet is not good w kids, I can also drop them off w their grandma for a bit. I always make it happen ❤️ She loves some grandson time. All our pets are spoiled because they are our family too. Our dogs have dog beds all around, even though they sleep on couches and beds w us. The cats have cat towers and toys and get the free range of the house. We used to have a nanny because I wanted someone here for the kids, but also the pets. It always made me feel better knowing someone would always be there for them too.

“Hey there. My name is pattie and Jordan came to walk both of my dogs. He was great! His communication couldn’t have been any better. My dogs are like my children, so I love to know when he arrives, leaves and filled the dog bowls with food and water. He was very attentive. I will gladly be rebooking in the future.”

My work can be done from anywhere so I am available most times. If I’m caring for a pet in a clients home, the first thing I want to do is spend some time letting the pet get to know me. They need to feel us out too!
About: I have had pets since I was very young. I have cared for dogs, cats, bunnies, and even a tortoise! Making sure that an animal is healthy, safe, and comfortable is my priority 🙂 I work from home so my schedule is fairly flexible. I can easily make adjustments to work around a schedule that works well for you and your pet. I live in a secure apartment with double doors at major exit ways. There is also a fenced yard around the building. For animals that are particularly anxious in new surroundings, I usually transform my study room into a safe haven (with cozy blankets, toys and treats galore) until your pet is more comfortable to roam around the house.
About: 🩷 I have been around dogs since I was very young! With that being said, I currently have one of my own and have watched many dogs and cats for friends and family! I absolutely love spending time with animals and making it a priority that they feel special and loved! Your animals will love me! 🩷 *SCHEDULE CHANGE* I am now working Monday-Friday 8AM-4:30PM. I am still available after work and all day on Saturdays & Sundays. Thank you so much! My dog is trained to stay in my yard and has free roam of the house. He is spoiled with treats, many toys, and so much love! I will provide your animals the careful attention they require to meet your unique demands.
About: Hello, call me Shay. I've grown up with dogs and have always wanted to be in a profession where I can work with them. I have always had family rely on me when it came to pet sitting their furry family members. Now I am so happy to do it for you. I love taking dogs on long walks, playing, and even brushing if requested. I am really hoping that with the extra funds I get from this amazing experience, I will be able to fund my future in a career that works with animals daily. I will love and treat your pet like they were one of my own. I am pretty flexible and always willing to take extra time to work with more timid pets. For house stays I always have someone with me so please be sure to let me know if that's something you don't want :) I am currently working part-time, so I have plenty of availability on my schedule to give that time, attention and care to your beloved pets. I find most pets perfer staying in their own familiar home. Keeping them happy and relaxed is a main goal of mine and whether on vacation or working a long day, you and your pet will be less stressed knowing they are safe at home.
About: I’ve grown up around all kinds of animals and enjoy working with them. I’ve bathed, fed, walked, and played with the animals. I’m very trustworthy and my friends and family members rely on me with their pet care needs. I am a full time college student but I am flexible with my hours. I live 2 hours away when I’m not at school so I will go home for holiday breaks and the summer! My friends and family trust me to watch their pets and take them out on walks throughout the day. I have alot of pet experience and can do anything you ask of me!
About: Taking care of your animal will be my number one priority. I love animals, I will be more than attentive to their needs and accommodate anything you would like. I’m available any time you need me and I will take in any animal, big, small, furry, hairless, you name it! I love them all. I’ve had animals my whole life so I know how to take care of dogs, I’ve had cats now for 5 years and kittens and it’s a handful but it has taught me so many things needed to be a perfect sitter! I love getting pets toys, and fancy food sometimes to spoil them so expect that (if it’s fone with the owner) of course. I can’t wait to meet you and your lovely pet!
About: Hello! I’ve cared for dogs and cats for years — including rescues, seniors, and pups with lots of energy! I’m patient, reliable, and comfortable with feeding routines, meds, and special care needs. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I promise to keep you updated with cute pictures and messages throughout their stay. Your fur baby’s comfort and safety come first! 🐕✨ I am currently working part time. Which is Tues-Sat 4pm-11pm tho so I’m anytime free before then. & I am off every Sunday and Monday I rent a home with a fenced in backyard. I do currently have 2 dogs. (Chihuahua mixes and a heeler mix.) they are crate trained so if you’re more comfortable with them staying separated from your baby(ies) that is absolutely no problem, depending on the duration of the stay.
About: Lifelong animal lover experienced in river walks, companion feedings, soothing chest rubs, treat distribution, and earning a sly cats trust. I will make sure your pets are happy, SAFE, and completely spoiled while you’re away! After a recent career shift- a friend suggested I try Rover to generate a bit of income. Bonus: an opportunity to do something I LOVE! I’m just getting started (here), but I look forward to meeting your fur family. I closely monitor outdoor time to ensure the pet is secure in the yard. I do NOT have a fence (all neighbors do). I will either clip them to the ground lead (125 lb hold), or long leash them in hand (I prefer your dog wear a harness while in my care). For their safety and security, your pet will NOT be outside without supervision. When out walking I will remain aware and assess surroundings to prepare for any triggers the dog may have and offer redirection. I will closely follow your schedule and preferences to make transition of care easier.
About: I have been caring for a cane Corso for the past 10 years. I have three cats who I adore very much altogether. I love animals. I must stay at home mom so I’d like to start working, especially with animals. I’m currently a stay at home mom so my schedule is free an open to fur babies to walk or watch for you I’d like to be walking or watching quite often I have a fenced in yard I also have bay gates to keep out of areas when needed we have leashes and everything your pet needs to succeed
About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals as long as I can remember! My parents adopted our first dog when I was only 4 years old. Tala was a Siberian husky that I took care of daily from a very young age. Throughout my childhood I grew up with medium/larger dogs such as German shepherds, huskies, pitbulls, and a Great Dane. My love for animals didn’t stop there! As a kid I regularly helped a family friend on her farm take care of wild and farm animals that she rehabbed such as bunnies, raccoons, squirrels, chickens, horses, cows, goats, etc. Now that I live on my own with my husband, we own 2 silly orange cats (4yo) and 2 dogs. Our 2 beagles, Starla(6yo) and Ellie (4yo), are ‘retired research hero’s’, meaning they were lab test animals for human medical research, they even have tattoos inside their right ears! They do great meeting new animals. But due to their life in the lab and awkward lack of learning other dogs body natural language, they require a meet and greet with any pets that plan on staying in our home just to ensure all animals clearly feel comfortable with each other. They are beyond friendly dogs that don’t know what a ‘stranger’ is and will accept love from anyone. Starla has seizures, and because of this I have plenty of experience with handling her during an episode. I would more than willing to board/take care of another pet who suffers from medical conditions! I personally know how nerve racking it is to leave our little fur babies life in the hands of another person that we hardly know. Ellie has a poultry allergy and we’ve become pretty good at checking the labels before feeding anything to her. It was quite surprising to see just how many pet items have poultry in them! I also suffer from a nut allergy, so I also know beyond animals just how dangerous it can be. You can feel more than safe trusting me with your fur babies allergies! I take all forms of special conditions very seriously. I’m currently a college student at ONU, but live in my own home that I own off campus. I do not work at this time and have very few classes that are physically on campus. I love meeting new people and animals especially. I have a fenced in yard where my beagles love to run around. While it is safely fence in, my animals are never left unattended as my animals safety is always a priority. During nice weather I love to take my dogs on walks out at Perry Farms or the Kankakee State Park. These are the places I choose for the safest and cleanest walking paths to keep my pups safe. Before walks I always check the pavement to ensure safe temperature for the little paws. I also spray my pups with Wondercides natural flea & tick repellent to further ensure safety for their health when going on walks. My house is only 1 level. The only stairs your pet would be required to climb are the ones going in and out of the house. While I do have a basement, only the cats are allowed down there. I am still new to the pet sitting world, but I am so excited!
About: Hi fellow pet owners! I’m a 20 year old college student looking to help you out and spend some time with your fur babies! I’m a pet owner myself, I’ve been around dogs and cats my whole life. I currently have 3 dogs, 4 cats and 2 leopard geckos at home. I’m a responsible and experienced pet owner and animal lover. I’ve pet-sat for many people over the years and look forward to doing it now on Rover. :) I’m a full time college student but I’ll have some times during the day where I’m free and weekends I’m typically available at any time. During the Summer (May-August I’m home for summer break and have more days available!) When meeting new dogs, if they are shy or apprehensive I give them time to adjust to me. Once they’re comfortable I’m more than happy to shower them with affection! I love animals and animal love me. Their safety is my top priority and I make sure they have access to food & water, are brought outside enough, and cannot get into anything that could harm them (chocolate, grapes, etc.) When walking dogs, I make sure to have a tight grip on the leash and stay far from other dogs nearby to avoid any incidents.
About: I have taken care of all sizes and temperaments of animals for 6 years, no one is too much to handle! I am very gentle, playful, loving, and energetic; i tailor myself to the pet's specific personality to make them feel comfortable as possible while their parents are away! As a bus driver, I am available to care for your pet(s) between 10am-1pm, then after 5pm on any given week day. All weekend I can give completely undivided attention! I also have every holiday break and all of summer vacation off. I am only open to sitting at other people's home's; i do not have the space, facilities, or amiable enough cat to take in new animals as it stands! As for clients homes, I am capable of taking care of up to 5-7 animals at one time from experience. Care can look like oral medicine administration needs, basic grooming schedules, potty training clean-up, as many walks as needed, and even weighing out food/having specific foods per animal if necessary!
About: I have always loved animals, especially dogs! I am a responsible, energetic, caring person that would love to take care of your pet! Your pets are part of the family, just like mine. I have experience dog sitting small to medium sized dogs. I am not strong enough to walk or care for larger dogs (unless of course they are great on the leash walking). I do not discriminate against any kind of breeds. I have two dogs of my own that are chihuahua and chihuahua mix. I have cared for small chihuahuas to larger pit bulls. Just message me with your needs as I work part time as a dental hygienist so I will work around my hours. I, also, volunteer at a wild animal rescue where I get to care for raccoons, foxes, deer, possums, squirrels and rabbits under the supervision of a veterinarian. I love animals of all kinds! Caring for animals is a passion of mine !

“This was my first time leaving my 10 year old Charlie with someone besides my parents. The second I met Bridget for our meet and greet I knew it was a perfect fit. Charlie stayed with her for 4 nights. She sent me updates and pictures immediately, and I knew he was in wonderful care! She treated him like one of her own and he had a great time meeting his new friends. I will absolutely book her for my future trips as well as daycare when he needs some extra playtime. I can’t thank her enough for easing my anxiety and taking the best care of my dog. Not having to worry about your animals when you are away is priceless.”
“Nicole took wonderful care our our dog, which made going on vacation so much easier. Our dog is old, with health problems (including incontinence), and we were so glad to find someone willing to sit him in their home. When we picked up our dog, Nicole had washed all the towels and bedding we had provided to help manage his incontinence. She went above and beyond in caring for him, and we really appreciated it. For people with younger, healthy dogs, Nicole has a large property with plenty of outdoor space. We highly recommend Nicole.”
“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.”
“Mariah was amazing! Panda loves her so much to the point he cried on the way home. She was very nice, patient with him and sent lots of pictures and videos. She kept me updated on his progress and even if something changes she was sure to let me know right a way. My fur baby loves her , she will always be his number one pick! We will definitely be back!”
“Amia,Joshua and family have been nothing but great to my baby Barry. He loves spending time over there, I definitely recommend them. They are the best fit for your fur baby 🙂”
“I am so glad I met Joy and Dan through here! Our regular sitter had to cancel last minute due to being sick and with only a days notice they were able to set up a same day meet and greet. I left their feeling more then confident about them and dropped off my boxer Lola the next day. Within seconds of us dropping off I got an adorable picture of Lola getting belly rubs from her children, she was definitely in doggy heaven. We recieved a couple more pictures throughout her stay and my mind was definitely put at ease and I knew she was in great hands. They will definitely be my go to sitters from now on and I highly recommend them! Thanks Joy and Dan!”
About: I have taken care of animals my whole life. Family and friends have relied on me for decades to take care of their animals. Growing up on a farm helped give me a lifelong affinity for animals. I’m a teacher who is off all summer. I have plenty of time to fill and would love to look after your animals, either in my home, as a drop in, or just a walk. I have a fenced in backyard, two amazing labs who love other dogs, and a wife and daughter who love dogs as much as I do.
“Ken and his family were awesome with our Sasha! Super easy to book.. actually the while process was super easy! Sasha’s happy she made some new friends.. and I’m happy I found our new ”go-to” sitter for our random weekend getaways!”
“Noel and his family were wonderful. Everyone gave Tom love and affection. I have no doubt that he felt very well looked after. Every day she didn't hesitate to respond to my messages and send photos. It reassures us a lot when we know that our pet friends are in good hands.”
“Alex was very communicative, sent lots of pictures, spoiled my babies rotten and I could not be happier with the care she and her loving family provided. Pretty sure Bane didn't even want to come home. 😅 Thank you so much!”
“I can't imagine a better person to leave our Parker Boy with! Heather took the best care of our dog and sent pictures and videos to keep our minds at ease while we were apart from him. She made him feel like a part of the family and made sure to do whatever she could to make him comfortable. We would recommend Heather to anyone looking for a sitter for their furry friends!!”
“Lindsey was incredible with our 7-month-old German Shepherd, Luna! Luna is usually scared of people when she first meets them, but Lindsey quickly made her feel comfortable and at ease. This was Luna’s first time away from us, and Lindsey went above and beyond to ensure she was happy and well cared for. She followed all of our instructions perfectly and even sent us regular photos, which gave us so much peace of mind knowing Luna was in great hands. We came home to a happy, relaxed pup, and Lindsey will absolutely be our first choice if we need a sitter again. Highly recommend!”
“Sheree is an amazing dog sitter. I was in a bind because I needed someone to take care of my mom's dog while she was in the hospital. I found Sheree and she was a life saver. She kept me updated daily with messages and photos of how my mom's dog was doing. She did an amazing job of taking care of him. My family will definitely be using Sheree again. I cannot thank her enough”
