“Tracy did a wonderful job watching my fur babies. I could tell that she gave them lots of love while I was out. She was very kind and sent me lots of great pictures during their stay! I would highly recommend! Thank you so much Tracy!”
“Brian and Deb took great care of Luna while we were out of town for the weekend! We loved getting the pictures and updates, knowing she was enjoying her time with them. I’d highly recommend them if you’re in need of someone to watch your dog while you’re away.”
“Rachel was very accommodating. She is an obvious dog lover and I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with her. She has a great setup and I was afraid my dog wasn’t going to want to come home! I highly recommend her and will definitely use her again.”
About: Hello, I have many years of experience caring for animals including, but not limited to, dogs (5 lbs to 200 lbs), cats, fish, reptiles, rodents, and birds. I have lots of experience taking care of special needs and a few of mine are special needs as well. Your animal need extra care? I’m your girl! I work at a local dog training facility so my schedule is pretty flexible and I can provide your pet with the care and love they deserve! I will take the dog(s) on 1-2 walks a day, if weather permits, as well as a little activity throughout the day. If I have other dogs who are similar socially, they will get play time with other dog(s). This depends on if the dog is social and has similar play styles to another dog. I will not put any dogs who would not get along together.
“Taressa was wonderful. I was very nervous to leave my dog with someone for the first time, but Taressa reassured me by sending me tons of pictures of her throughout her stay. I would definitely use Taressa again if I was ever in need.”

“Pepper had a blast!!! She got to hang with some feathered friends. Now we can plan our next trip knowing we can leave her for a few days and she will have fun memories as well. Thanks so much for fitting us in last minute.”
About: I've grown up with dogs my whole life, and naturally when I was old enough to start working with them I did. From the age of 10 I volunteered with the animal clinics; walking dogs, cleaning up after them, medicating them, feeding them, bathing them, even sometimes having to help restrain them. I started learning how to work with dogs from a young age and when I was 15 I started working as a kennel assistant/worker at a veterinary hospital where I eventually gained more responsibilities and experience in the veterinary field and became a vet tech through experience. Even though I work a full time job M-W, I work from home. I am also a stay-at-home-mom, so I am almost always home. When I am not actively interacting with my dogs I like to give them enrichment toys. If were outside we go out for an hour or so every 2-3 hours. If I know it's a stay in the house kind of day we feed through games. I love taking my girls for "adventures" every chance we get for socialization, even if that means we just go sit at the ball park and sit and watch. I have an unfunded yard, however I have 3 tie outs and a large outdoor dog pen. I have a small house, but I have an attached single car garage that has been converted into an extra room for the dogs. I have 2 friendly dogs that will be able to keep your fur baby company.
About: I've had a variety of different types of pets around me my whole life. I have loved and cared for every one of them. I have trained my own dog and have taken care of many senior dogs until their passing. I'm currently working a part-time job, I have plenty of time during the afternoon and evenings to play and care for your pets. I'm available any day of the weekday after 12 and all day on the weekends. I have a partially fenced in yard, and one loving dog and two laid back cats, to keep your pet company. I have plenty of toys and treats to keep your animals happy.
“I will definitely rebook Robyn in the future and felt very comfortable with my baby boy in her care! She sent updates and pictures and videos any time I asked and always responded to all my messages pretty instantly. Biggie gave her a giant hug and kiss goodbye when I picked him up. Thank you, Robyn! 🐾🖤”

“I have 2 cats and it was my first vacation in over 7 years. Pete did a wonderful job. Even my neighbors said I made a good choice with him. I installed cameras just to be safe and we all loved how he talked to them and played with them and their toys. I was so relieved I could enjoy my vacation knowing they were taken care of.”
“Billie has been wonderful with our Oakley and our crazy Ernie! She is so patient, kind and understanding with our duo💕 She has been extra helpful and supportive to me as their owner. We would definitely recommend her to anyone!”
About: I have had pets since I was a kid, and all through my life I have had some sort of animal. Big or small, I have tons of experience with all kinds. Now, I have 14 fur/feather/scale babies of my own and I am going to IVCC to getting my associates in science and majoring in wildlife bio. I am out of school for the summer and looking for anything really. Full time or part time. And any time of the night or day is fine with me. I have 14 pets, no dogs or cats, but I did have plenty of them growing up. Right now we have 6 birds, three different kinds, ((3 of them are house ducks)) a snake and the rest are smaller animals rabbit, piggy's, ferret etc. The rabbit is free roam, the birds and other animals all have their own free roam/fly time. Our house is on a set schedule as soon as the sun peeks through, lol, the ducks let us know, it's time to get the day started. Due to us having this many kiddos, we do plan long days ahead of time so everything is adjusted properly so everyone is taken care of. I am no stranger to getting dirty or dealing with any type of mess. Depending on the weather, we are outside as much as possible with a number of them and always trying to find new ways to keep their little minds engaged.
“Excellent ☆ Thank you so much for taking such good care of our cats Yuki and Spooky. They slotted right back into their routine when the got home, and with minimal stress. We'll definitely find you again when we need a petsitter! ♡”
“I had never used Rover before but Meghan put me at ease right away, and I felt comfortable leaving my cat with her. He looked happy and relaxed when I picked him up and I would definitely use her again.”
About: I adore being around animals and have had many years pf practice with taking care of friends pets. We have also always had pets in our family growing up. I work part time as a wedding photographer so Im usually very flexible with my schedule especially during the week. I also enjoy walking so Im also available for that. I will only walk outside with your pet if they have a leash or a fenced protected area. I won't them alone anytime. I will provide patience and love to them as if they were my own.
About: Currently I’m avaible for dropping in for house visits and dog walking right now. I’ve had pets all my life, from the furry to scaly skin I love all animals! As an avid animal lover I love nothing more than getting to know you and your pet so you can trust that they’re in the best possible care with as I treat every pet as my own. I work a part time job that only requires me to work a couple days a week so just shoot me a message and I can let you know which days I can help out with your pet needs! In your home I can stop by for feedings, go on a walk, play with them, and administer oral medication. I know every dog is different and I love getting to know every dog and their special needs.
“Was nervous as this was my first time using someone I didn't know to watch my kitties but Alayna was wonderful and made me feel very comfortable to leave them in her hands. She took lots of pictures for me and they had a great time with her, will definitely be a recurring customer!”
About: Hi I’m Reise!! I am experienced with caring for cats, dogs, ferrets, birds, and hamsters. I have rescued quite a few furry friends over the years and found them amazing FUR-EVER homes! ❤️ I’m not looking to foster at this time but wouldn’t mind boarding a dog or two here and there while their people are on vacation or work trips! I could also do house visits as well as walking. I’m really down for anything and love animals. I have 2 dogs right now but I love animals so much it’s my passion to make a small difference and find animals close to home to work with and take on walks while their owner may be busy. I’m a stay at home mom, so when I say I have the free time I really mean it and would love to help. I hope you choose me to care for your pet, I really look forward to talking with and meeting you. Thank you so much for taking the time to read this!!! :) I am free all the time!!! I’m a stay at home mom. Sundays we usually have family time for a few hours and like to have breakfast all together.. other than that I am free! :) My dogs have a fenced in yard and run to ensure their safety while playing outside. It’s not that I feel my dogs are unsafe, but you never know how someone else’s dog walking by might react when there are dogs outside already. I use StarMark collars on my dogs, these collars guarantee that they won’t and can’t really slip away, these collars are great especially if your dog pulls, my dog used to pull a lot and I was able to get him to do great while walking. I love being able to work with dogs 1 on 1 at first so they can get learn to trust me and feel safe!! Both of my dogs are extremely friendly. Bear is the most gentle giant and Daisy is just the sweetest girl ever. I would love to get to know you & your animals.
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: I was always the go to person for pet sitting in my family. Growing up, we always had at least one dog in the house. And I was fortunate enough to have had one for 16 years. Her name was Bear. She was the best family dog anyone could ask for and I miss her very much. She is the reason I love taking care of animals so much. Recently, I have become very fond of cats and live with 2 of them. They have stolen my heart and take care of them every day. I also have two reptiles which are my whole world. No matter what animal, I would love to take care of them. I’m the sitter for you! I am in between jobs at the moment so my schedule is very flexible right now. I am very open and honest so I’m very willing to for the schedule that’s best for you and your pet! I am not offering services in my home. As much as I would love to, I rent and cannot have a lot of animals staying with me. I’m sorry for the inconvenience!
“Thank you so much for checking on my babies! I appreciate the updates, communication and pictures! So happy knowing they are safe and taken care of while I’m out of town!”
About: I am an excellent communicator and treat pets as they are my own. I have a heart for helping others and this is one of the ways I do that! I’m currently a college student and am very flexible with my schedule. I have weekends free and can help in a last minute situation! I’m happy to help. I make sure to ask lots of questions about the home before I am left there with the animals. I also make sure to question anything I am unsure of or unfamiliar with! I also prefer my fiancé to accompany me for safety reasons. We are a fun couple who loves dog sitting and taking care of your pups! We’d love to meet you and your furry friends!

About: I would love the opportunity to have your furry friends come visit me. I am there when you can't be! I am a long time Dog loving home. I have adopted 6 dogs and believe they should all be loved like your own. I have been a Foster parent as well for Wishbone Canine Rescue, so have had experience with dogs coming and going and needing a place to lay their paws. I have 2 dogs and a cat that are welcoming to your pets needs and they love company. My home is dog friendly in that they have full access to the house and furniture and beds as well as 2 dog doors to go out into the dog run or fenced in yard as they please. I do also have dog crates as well as a indoor walk in dog kennel if needed to use. I work from home and available for your pets needs as they need them. I have the ability to attend to the dogs needs 24/7 unless otherwise discussed. I have detailed below what are the definitions we use for our 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’ve been taking care of pets since childhood. First it was cats, then dogs, and I’m now a proud owner of a Quaker parrot. I’m willing to walk or pet sit dogs, help pet sit cats at their own home, and the same with exotic birds. Someone is always home with the pet and we also help you dog get socialized with our parrot. When I had dogs, I let them sleep on the bed with us. I also let them sit on the furniture, too. And I do spoil them, also. I work full time in the afternoon shift but my boyfriend works mornings so there is always someone home. He loves animals, too! I do my best to work around my schedule. Our bird Kerry only goes in his cage when we are both out of the house and at bedtime. Otherwise, we let him out. Kerry is used to dogs. He likes to talk to dogs.
About: I have had dogs all my life & have taken care of friends & family’s pets. I tend to adopt “problem” dogs that other people can’t handle. I love a challenge & gaining the trust of the dog. I used to frequent the Dominican Republic to feed & give flea baths to the neglected street dogs out there. I’m currently working from home & was a bartender for the last 20 yrs but now looking for a new career with animals because they are my true passion. I just moved to the Gardner, Illinois for a bigger yard & a 6ft privacy fence to expand my dog sitting business. I also have a small pool for the dogs. I have lots of gates up throughout the house & different rooms I can put dogs in if any need to separated. I also have large crates I can use.

I’m a stay at home mom, so when I say I have the free time I really mean it and would love to help. I hope you choose me to care for your pet, I really look forward to talking with and meeting you. Thank you so much for taking the time to read this!!! :) I am free all the time!!! I’m a stay at home mom. Sundays we usually have family time for a few hours and like to have breakfast all together.. other than that I am free! :) My dogs have a fenced in yard and run to ensure their safety while playing outside. It’s not that I feel my dogs are unsafe, but you never know how someone else’s dog walking by might react when there are dogs outside already. I use StarMark collars on my dogs, these collars guarantee that they won’t and can’t really slip away, these collars are great especially if your dog pulls, my dog used to pull a lot and I was able to get him to do great while walking. I love being able to work with dogs 1 on 1 at first so they can get learn to trust me and feel safe!! Both of my dogs are extremely friendly. Bear is the most gentle giant and Daisy is just the sweetest girl ever. I would love to get to know you & your animals.
“Alayna took great care of our Wolfie! She paid close attention to his needs and made adjustments (like bringing him home from a walk a bit early so she could sit with him while he ate - since he was being a bit finicky about food). She kept in good communication with us the whole time and sent lots of pictures.”
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: Pet owner for 10+ years Used to farm animals and herding breed dogs! When I was a kid I would walk dogs for our local shelter, handling all kinds of dogs of different sizes and temperaments. I can provide 24/7 attentive care for your pet! I am only home for evenings on Tuesday and Wednesday but my Fiancé is home during the daytime :) I have a very large fenced in yard for your dogs to run and play! My dog Guppy can play with your pet or be kept separate. I can feed your dog in the crate if necessary. Dogs are allowed on the couch as long as they are potty trained. We do have a cat in the home, who can be separated to a different area of the house if necessary.
“Kara is reliable, caring, and wonderful with our puppy. We hired her to walk our dog weekly and will definitely rehire for the same service and dog sitting in the future.”
About: I grew up on a farm with many animals. As a child, I had pet sheep, rabbits, dogs, cats, and cows. As an adult, I have always had cats. My 20 year old long hair cat just passed away in January. It was heartbreaking. I miss him dearly. We loved our guy so much. In his last 5 yrs, I spent many hours catering to his elderly issues. Medications and night yowling were issues that I happily took care of as he lived out his twilight years. I have a soft spot for all animals as they go through all stages of life :) I work from home and set my own hours, so my schedule is extremely flexible. I am open to many kinds of arrangements- one time sitting, a weekly routine, daily walks, weekends, etc. I am extremely fortunate to have a flexible schedule. My teen daughter and I live in a large 4 bedroom home, so we have tons of space to accommodate furry friends who need company. We do not have a fenced in yard, but our neighborhood is great for long walks. Our neighborhood has trails through the woods and a home owner’s association that maintains the trails. We have lots of fun walking the trails. I am an avid jogger/walker. I go out everyday, regardless of the weather. I have a very active lifestyle! We recently adopted a cat, but he stays in his own area on a different level of the house. He has claimed my daughter as his and lives in her room. When dogs come to stay with us, he typically stays in his room & pups never see him, although he has made friends with some of our regularly visiting pups 😊 I have a very flexible work schedule. When I do have to be away from home for work, I am gone about 2-3 hrs at a time. My daughter is at home often and also helps with pups. She is great with animals! We both like to take frequent walks throughout the day! In my home, I have a large open floor plan with tons of windows. During the day, I like to have pups next to me in my office, but some like to lay in prime viewing area of all the windows.

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.

About: Hello, I have many years of experience caring for animals including, but not limited to, dogs (5 lbs to 200 lbs), cats, fish, reptiles, rodents, and birds. I have lots of experience taking care of special needs and a few of mine are special needs as well. Your animal need extra care? I’m your girl! I work at a local dog training facility so my schedule is pretty flexible and I can provide your pet with the care and love they deserve! I will take the dog(s) on 1-2 walks a day, if weather permits, as well as a little activity throughout the day. If I have other dogs who are similar socially, they will get play time with other dog(s). This depends on if the dog is social and has similar play styles to another dog. I will not put any dogs who would not get along together.

About: I've grown up with dogs my whole life, and naturally when I was old enough to start working with them I did. From the age of 10 I volunteered with the animal clinics; walking dogs, cleaning up after them, medicating them, feeding them, bathing them, even sometimes having to help restrain them. I started learning how to work with dogs from a young age and when I was 15 I started working as a kennel assistant/worker at a veterinary hospital where I eventually gained more responsibilities and experience in the veterinary field and became a vet tech through experience. Even though I work a full time job M-W, I work from home. I am also a stay-at-home-mom, so I am almost always home. When I am not actively interacting with my dogs I like to give them enrichment toys. If were outside we go out for an hour or so every 2-3 hours. If I know it's a stay in the house kind of day we feed through games. I love taking my girls for "adventures" every chance we get for socialization, even if that means we just go sit at the ball park and sit and watch. I have an unfunded yard, however I have 3 tie outs and a large outdoor dog pen. I have a small house, but I have an attached single car garage that has been converted into an extra room for the dogs. I have 2 friendly dogs that will be able to keep your fur baby company.
About: I've had a variety of different types of pets around me my whole life. I have loved and cared for every one of them.

I'm available any day of the weekday after 12 and all day on the weekends. I have a partially fenced in yard, and one loving dog and two laid back cats, to keep your pet company. I have plenty of toys and treats to keep your animals happy.
About: I have extensive experience with dogs, having grown up with them since childhood. I am fully capable of feeding, walking, entertaining, and caring for all types and ages of dogs.
