“Christine is an excellent sitter, and I look forward to booking her again. My dog, Bentley, is my world and this was the first time, he was going to stay with a non-relative. I was nervous how he would do, but after returning from my vacay, I brought home a happy & healthy dog. His overall demeanor was enough for me to know that he was well taken care of and looked after. Also, Christine’s dog, Chloe is a sweet gentle gal, and it was easy for Bentley who has only-child syndrome to get along with her.”

“Judy was absolutely wonderful to work with for our dog Simba. We felt comfortable and relaxed to leave him for an extended time for the first time. We could also tell that Simba really enjoyed his time with Judy and Bill. They made him feel right at home, and took such thoughtful and attentive care of him!”

“Jae and her family were amazing to my sweet puppy. I could not have asked for a better family to take care of my dog; we felt absolutely blessed to have such a perfect home when we were gone. The entire family treated her like she was part of the family, and I always felt comforted on my vacation to receive pictures of my dog enjoying her days with her interim family. I will absolutely only use Jae now. And our dogs have become great friends too, so what an incredible bonus!”

“Hannah was amazing with our 9‑month‑old puppy, Romeo! She took such good care of him, made sure he was fed on time, and went out of her way to keep him comfortable and happy while we were gone. She kept sending us the cutest pics and videos, which really helped us relax on our trip. Romeo clearly had the best time with her, and we’ll definitely be booking her again every time we need boarding for Romeo. Highly recommend her to any friends looking for a super sweet and reliable pet sitter!”

“Jean was amazing with my golden. I loved getting pictures and videos daily and knowing that he was having a great time. My big guy has terrible anxiety during storms and is on a high dose of anxiety medication that sometimes works. When a bad storm rolled in Jean was compassionate and loving and notified me about his condition. As a very overprotective dog mom I trust Jean and we will definitely be using her again.”
“Deirdre is clearly an experienced dog watcher! She took our dog for several days and was kind enough to even drop her off when our flight was getting in late. Her home is set up to watch dogs- gates back yard, understands how they interact, etc. highly recommend!!”

“Melissa was very responsive, forth right and welcoming to my puppy. She put my mind at ease last night when I dropped her off for an overnight stay. She’s a sweet young lady and happy to recommend her. Lots a parks around and green even through in an apartment. Excellent place.”


“Katerina was amazing! She’s so kind and really cares about your fur babies. She sends pictures and is very accommodating with scheduling. Will definitely be using her services again. Thanks Katerina!!”

“We appreciated the updates letting us know our dog was having a fun time during his stay! Great communication. It always means a lot to know our dog is being well cared for. Already booked a second stay!”

“Jacob made this whole experience so easy, made us feel safe leaving our pet behind while on vacation, and we are confident that our Odie had such a good time! He is passionate about his clients and communicated with us the entire time. I would highly recommend leaving your precious pooch with him and feel great that they are being cared for and kept safe. Thank you Jacob for everything!”


“I was very pleased with my pet sitting experience. Her children were very gentle with my dog. My dog had 2 meals there & she ate both meals without hesitation. This means, for my dog, that she was comfortable in her surroundings. Ariana seemed genuinely concerned & sensitive about my dog feeling comfortable & not nervous while she was their. I wouldn't hesitate to pick Ariana as your pet sitter. We plan on choosing her again when we need a pet sitter in the future.”
“We were really happy with our decision to have Monica care for our two dogs during a weekend away. She was super responsive, flexible, and accommodating and it was obvious she loves animals and took very good care of them. Her house is very clean with lots of places for the dogs to relax, and her fenced backyard was perfect for playtime. Highly recommend!”


“Angela was very welcoming and caring for our Gizmo! From the moment we arrived her and her husband greeted us with open arms. We were going camping and our schedule was a little off but they made time for us. We received pictures and updates daily and were really pleased. Would highly recommend to anyone using this service for the 1st time. Thanks again!”


“Jill took such good care of our sweet, energetic 3yo bernedoodle. It was such a relief to be away and know that he was being well cared for. The daily updates and pictures were so appreciated.”

“Megan took wonderful care of my 8‑month‑old golden retriever during his very first 5‑day boarding stay. She kept me updated every day with pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. He was clearly happy, safe, and well cared for. I’m very happy with her service and will definitely recommend her and book with her again.”

“Kelsey was absolutely amazing! I was in a tough spot — I was getting married and the friend who was supposed to watch my dog, Inc, canceled last minute. I had no one lined up and was pretty stressed. I did a meet-and-greet with Kelsey and her husband, and right away I felt completely comfortable. They were both so kind and welcoming, and their home was perfect for Inc. I truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Kelsey went above and beyond, and I had total peace of mind on such an important day. If I could give her more than five stars, I absolutely would! I will definitely be using her again in the future.”


“Stella put our minds at ease when we had to leave our almost one year old puppy (for the first time) for our wedding/honeymoon. She sends picture updates and lets you know how pups are doing throughout the week, which was always nice to see. Despite our dog having a hard time adjusting to the change, she was great throughout the process. Couldn't have asked for better people to watch our Lily. Thank you, Stella and Jim!”

“The daily updates were so thorough and gave such adorable detail. It seemed like my cats warmed up to her so quickly and she gave them all the pets they requested. She also should work as a pet photographer cause a lot of the pictures I got were so beautiful!”


“Shawna is so sweet and always takes good care of my cat! She has been so flexible to accommodate my additional drop in visit request during this long time visit period. Truly appreciated!!!!”

“Kati did a great job taking care of our cat. She arrived as scheduled. Spent lots of time with him and made sure the house was locked up and the alarm was set. Katie also sent lots of feedback and pictures😊”

“Mallory was wonderful, we booked her to drop in on our 2 cats for 2 weeks. Every day she fed and watered them, emptied the litterbox, gave them some love and treats! It saved us so much stress knowing she was watching them!”

“Kayla was great! We left our cats, Pumpkin and Shadow, in her care for four days while we were on vacation. Kalya's thorough updates during our trip convinced us that she took great care of the cats. Her photos were complete and fun to watch, and her descriptions of her visits suggested that the cats were nurtured and entertained while she visited. I would hire her again!”

“Christina did such a great job taking care of our cat, Sox. It's clear that she is very knowledgeable about animal behavior, and it allowed us to have a worry-free trip. I especially enjoyed her clever and informative updates, the pictures she sent at each visit, and the fun video of Sox at play. He was happy to see us when we returned, and he showed no evidence of stress whatsoever. Christina proved to be very reliable, and I would not hesitate to ask her to check in on Sox the next time we're away!”


“Katerina, Thank you for looking after our cats while we were away! They were very well taken care of and we will definitely be rebooking for our future cat-sitting needs!”

“Becca did a great job watching my cat—super responsive and easy to work with. Everything went smoothly, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again if I need a sitter. Highly recommend!”

About: I am a retired high school educator, artist, outdoor enthusiast, and animal lover. I am a five-star walker and a very reliable and compassionate caregiver for your pet. I often feel we are kindred spirits and I am totally intrigued by their individual personalities. I have cared for dogs both personally or professionally for most of my life and willingly care for your pet and their individual needs. Whether it be exploring adventure, padding the neighborhood (walking or running), gifting belly rubs, or providing hydration & nutrition, your pet’s needs will be personalized while in my care with much love and affection. In the future, I hope to rehabilitate dogs and work with their family members to provide a safe space filled with discipline, affection, and a true sense of belonging. You can depend on me and trust that your pet will feel cherished and loved while in my care. Since retiring from teaching, my hours of 1:1 attention have expanded. I am now available to give full weekday hours to your pet in addition to my time during weekends. While caring for pets in parks and neighborhoods, I keep them on a leash during all walks and runs. If we are lounging in the yard I provide the dog an opportunity to relax on a lead while I am outdoors with them. For owners who allow their dogs to visit Lakewood Dog Park’s expansive exercise area, I monitor those dogs while they run and play off leash under my constant supervision. While indoors, I follow the rules that my pet owners prefer whether it be cuddling on furniture and slumbering in bed with me or crating them within their cozy caves with their favorite snuggle toy. I do everything I can to mirror the eating, playing, and napping comfort with the same positive experiences your pet receives in your living home while throwing in a little extra spoiling 🐶❤️🐶
About: “Dog fever” doesn’t even begin to cover it — my girlfriend and I are counting down the days until we can bring home a new puppy. I’m the kind of person who can’t pass a dog on the street without stopping to say hello, so you can imagine how excited I get around animals. I’m a private contractor working remotely with a very flexible schedule. I can shift my day to day schedule and adapt to most needs you may have. I am a very attentive person with patience and much affection. I hope to keep your pets routine consistent & stress-free with exercise, playtime, or just extra attention.

About: Cat Care Experience In addition to my extensive dog‑handling background, I also have experience caring for cats. For three years I had two wonderful cats of my own—a calico named Cuddles and a sweet, gentle cat named Little Bit. They were part of my daily life, and I handled all their feeding, grooming, playtime, and care routines. Although I no longer have cats due to my husband’s allergies, I truly enjoy them and understand their unique personalities, body language, and need for a calm, respectful environment. I’m comfortable with shy cats, affectionate cats, and independent cats alike, and I’m attentive to their cues so they feel safe and cared for. Whether it’s feeding, litter box maintenance, playtime, or simply offering quiet companionship, I provide the same level of love, intuition, and hands‑on care for cats as I do for dogs.

“Ally took care of our 2 cats while we were away for vacation. She was extremely detail oriented, easy to communicate with, and kind. She made sure to give us reports of what is going on with our fur babies every time she visits. Highly recommended!”

About: I provide attentive, high-quality care tailored to each dog’s needs. I’m experienced with structured routines, leash handling, and reading dog behavior to ensure a safe and positive environment. Whether your dog needs exercise, structure, or just extra affection, I deliver dependable, top-tier care every time. My schedule is currently flexible as I am in between work allowing me to be available morning-evenings. Whether you’re looking for a morning walk or running late from work I can be there. I try to keep things as normal as possible for your dog while you’re gone. I follow your routine, make sure they’re well-fed, walked, and getting plenty of attention. I’m also very respectful of your home and keep everything clean and in order.

“Doug is conscientious and makes sure he knows exactly what is needed to look after my two cats. I have already booked Doug for a longer trip later this year and would recommend him to anyone.”

“Haven is amazing! She is very conscientious, always on time, very communicative and most importantly, she cares very much about the happiness and well being of your pet. She’s the best pet sitter we’ve ever used!”

“Had a really great experience with Deidre. As a nervous cat mom, she put my mind at ease while I traveled and made sure my cat was well taken care of in my absence. Plan to use her moving forward on my trips if she’s available!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was in my 20s. I’ve also taken care of senior dogs, so I know how to handle their special care. I’m very experienced in feeding and grooming, and I love the companionship it brings to a family! I am a stay at home mom, and my husband works from home, so there’s always someone there to watch and play with your fur baby! We always have lots of time for walking and playing throughout the day. I have an extremely safe neighborhood with a little park about a 3 minute walk away, two kids that love playing with dogs, (15 and 8) and an extremely friendly mini goldendoodle!
“Deidre was fantastic! Will definitely use again when we’re in town next! At drop off, my dogs were comfortable with her right away and at pick up my dogs came home tired and happy! Thank you!”

“Just pleasant. I kind of immediately knew I would trust her. And I did. And I picked up a happy dog! I'm also very happy that her and my dog get along very well, which is an extra plus :-). What else can I ask for? 😁”
“Christine was very flexible with my schedule and even helped out by bringing Teddy home for me. She is also very caring and Teddy took to her right away. Plus, Teddy had lots of fun playing with Chloe all day. Definitely recommend!”


About: Dog boarding at The Mutt House in Mundelein! We just celebrated our 12 YEAR ANNIVERSARY here at The Mutt House ! It has been a wonderful adventure and I continue to enjoy meeting new families and their furry family members. This is my passion and my focus- this is not just a side job to me- I take it very seriously and your dogs safety and comfort is my priority. They become part of the family while staying with us. The Mutt House is the perfect vacation destination for the (ALREADY) WELL-SOCIALIZED dog while you are enjoying your vacation with peace of mind. ( See note on which breeds I can not accept).. ( Please include PICTURE OF YOUR PUP with request) —————————— Your dog will enjoy a safe, large fenced in yard and plenty of room to roam around our smoke-free home. They are also welcome to lounge on the couch or wherever they are comfortable. We also take a lot of potty breaks and enjoy the outdoors when weather allows. I will send daily pictures and updates directly to your phone, so that you will have peace of mind while away! A few other things to note: 1) Dogs must be spayed/neutered to stay here. 2) Re: DOGS I CAN NOT BOARD: - I can not board dogs with anxiety issues or dogs that are not already socialized with other dogs. - I can not board Huskies, Pits or Pit Mixes, Guarding Breeds, Extreme High Energy Breeds (Australian Shepherd, Boarder Collie) 3) **Please no late drop offs. It takes a while for the dogs to adjust to each other and most settle down for the night by 8:00...so ideally before 5pm is appreciated...We can discuss at our meet and greet. 4) If you live within 10 miles of Mundelein, I am happy to pick up and drop off your dog for you. (Fee depends on distance ) I look forward to hearing from you! Thank you for your consideration. *********************************************** About my yard: Spacious fenced-in yard (see pictures). The fence is 6” tall and is routinely examined for safety. My experience administering medication: I am able to administer oral medications and injections. I am home all day- if anything, I may run out to the store or to pickup/drop off my children nearby. My focus is to be home for your dog. We have a safe yard in which I keep the gate locked at all times. We also have an extra “catch” gate going out to the garage so dogs can’t sneak out.

I take one client at a time so my whole focus will be on your dog. Just let me know your needs.
“Alesia and ger family were super sweet with Mishka! They let him borrow a tennis ball to play fetch because I forgot to bring his. Her daughter even drew a beautiful picture of him and she is the most talented!! He came home happy and tired.”

“Megan was great with my dog! She sent lots of pictures and I could tell my dog was having the best time ever. Megan was an excellent communicator and so easy to work with. I will book with again and recommend others do as well.”

“Erena is very friendly and personable with dogs. She was able to make our dog Leia feel comfortable in her surroundings and provided timely communication/updates. Overall, Leia had a great stay. We would highly recommend Erena.”

“Juliana was a blessing for us and Molly our Labrador Retriever. While attending an out of town birthday party I needed a few hours of daycare for Molly. I originally thought a nearby PetSmart would be the answer however after viewing their confined and noisy facility I knew Molly would not be comfortable there. Juliana was close by, and on short notice, available to care for Molly. While I was at the party Juliana sent me some photos and videos of Molly happily playing at a nearby dog park so I knew all was going well and not to worry about her. Molly and I would definitely recommend Juliana if you're in need of a sitter for your dog.”
“We had our Pup stay for daycare this time, and it was another successful stay. I can really tell that he loves going over to their house, and he loves Gladiola. We are planning on having several more stays booked for when we go out of town.”

About: Growing up I was raised in a very pet friendly household surrounded by animal lovers. I have kept this quality well into my adult years and have made it my mission to extend love and respect to every animal I meet and care for. Dog or cat, they will be treated kindly and with respect. As I am currently attending school from home, I am available weekdays for visits in the mornings and/or evenings. Unfortunately afternoons I am not available. I make it my duty to learn about every animals individual needs; their likes, dislikes, and sensitivities. I will make sure to keep on hand any emergency information such as general vet and emergency vet details. At the first sign of issue, I will make sure your animal will receive the care they need while keeping you in the loop every step of the way.
About: My husband Ian and I have over 10+ years of pet sitting and dog walking experience. We both are comfortable with animals that require more medical treatment or attention. My husband Ian and I split up our bookings between the two of us typically or share the responsibilities. My husband Ian works M-F 7:30am to 4pm and I recently transitioned to working from home. We have a fenced in yard with two pups at home ourselves to keep your furry friend(s) entertained. We do offer you to bring their crate for sleeping to make them feel more comfortable, but typically we just have them set up in our living room to feel most comfortable. We are flexible!
“Deidre was AMAZING with my with two pups and can’t RECOMMEND her enough! Unfortunately, one of my dogs became very ill before I left for vacation and required extensive, round the clock care. Deirdre was able to administer all of the medications, stick to the strict food regimen, come by every 2 hours to check in, and even cleaned up all of the accidents from my sick pup. :/ She kept me updated throughout the trip with texts and pictures, asked questions when needed, and when my other dog sitter fell through at last minute, she was able to rearrange her schedule to cover. Overall, I am very grateful for her help and it truly put my mind at ease knowing Deirdre could be there to take care of them! Thank you again!”

About: I have worked as a pet boarder and sitter on Rover for about a year. Having previously worked as a certified nursing assistant, I have experience as a caregiver, and one of my greatest passions is caring for pets. Dogs and cats are members of a family, and it is so important to care for them as you would any other family member. I have several years of experience boarding dogs for their owners when they have been on vacation, and have also cared for my own animals throughout my whole life. I also have experience as an animal transporter for West Hancock canine rescue, in which I would work with a team to take dogs and cats from high kill shelters to foster homes or rescues. I also have a wonderful dog I rescued, Ollie, who is friendly and likes to play with other dogs at times. I’m working part-time so have time to play with pups! And our family loves animals, so it’s a great fit for us to pet sit, and we like providing a home environment for owners who need to travel. I provide a calm, safe and fun environment for pets to play. Provide walks and let pets out regularly. I believe it’s important to attend to all feeding and medication needs as a high priority.
“Christine was great! I met her ahead of time and instantly liked her. My dog did too. Everything ran smoothly and I loved getting the photos she sent. I’ll surely use her again.”

About: My dogs were my life! I cooked for them. Researched how to care and feed them. Walked them all the time. Gave them so much love. Retired teacher and both of my dogs have now crossed the rainbow bridge so my heart is crushed. I babysit my grandchildren two days per week. Then I am available! I love dogs! I would make them feel comfortable with me. I will play with them, walk them, talk to them, feed them, and follow their parents directions of care.

About: I’ve had animals my entire life and it’s truly my passion, everyone I know trusts me with their furrbabies! I’ve had dogs (great dane and boston terriers), cats, fish, tortoise, and a bearded dragon. I treat every pet like my own, i’m attentive and patient, and my main priority is making sure your pet feels safe and comfortable! I am a high schooler in online school, a month away from graduating.

During drop-in visits I will take care to follow all of your requests while making sure your pet feels safe and happy!

“Christine is an excellent sitter, and I look forward to booking her again. My dog, Bentley, is my world and this was the first time, he was going to stay with a non-relative. I was nervous how he would do, but after returning from my vacay, I brought home a happy & healthy dog. His overall demeanor was enough for me to know that he was well taken care of and looked after. Also, Christine’s dog, Chloe is a sweet gentle gal, and it was easy for Bentley who has only-child syndrome to get along with her.”

“Hannah was amazing with our 9‑month‑old puppy, Romeo! She took such good care of him, made sure he was fed on time, and went out of her way to keep him comfortable and happy while we were gone. She kept sending us the cutest pics and videos, which really helped us relax on our trip. Romeo clearly had the best time with her, and we’ll definitely be booking her again every time we need boarding for Romeo. Highly recommend her to any friends looking for a super sweet and reliable pet sitter!”

“Deirdre is clearly an experienced dog watcher! She took our dog for several days and was kind enough to even drop her off when our flight was getting in late. Her home is set up to watch dogs- gates back yard, understands how they interact, etc. highly recommend!!”

“Megan took wonderful care of my 8‑month‑old golden retriever during his very first 5‑day boarding stay. She kept me updated every day with pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. He was clearly happy, safe, and well cared for. I’m very happy with her service and will definitely recommend her and book with her again.”

“Kelsey was absolutely amazing! I was in a tough spot — I was getting married and the friend who was supposed to watch my dog, Inc, canceled last minute. I had no one lined up and was pretty stressed. I did a meet-and-greet with Kelsey and her husband, and right away I felt completely comfortable. They were both so kind and welcoming, and their home was perfect for Inc. I truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Kelsey went above and beyond, and I had total peace of mind on such an important day. If I could give her more than five stars, I absolutely would! I will definitely be using her again in the future.”


“Stella put our minds at ease when we had to leave our almost one year old puppy (for the first time) for our wedding/honeymoon. She sends picture updates and lets you know how pups are doing throughout the week, which was always nice to see. Despite our dog having a hard time adjusting to the change, she was great throughout the process. Couldn't have asked for better people to watch our Lily. Thank you, Stella and Jim!”

“Outstanding!! we love that we got multiple pictures and videos every single day. They took care of our pup like she was one of their own. Their dog has a great temperament and I’m sure our dog will miss playtime and naps with him! I will absolutely book again!”

“Leigh and Richard gave absolute impeccable care to my special needs dog for 8 days! I have never been away from Annie (my dog) for that long and I was very concerned. After having 2 meet and greets with them, I realized that Annie was going to be in great hands. They followed all of the guidelines of feeding her 3 specialized meals a day, administrating her daily medicine and taking her on extra walks every day. She even got her daily belly rubs and lap time. They stayed in touch with me daily with phone calls, texts and photos. I don't think my surgical recovery would have gone as well as it did, if I was worried about Annie. I can't give enough praise to this wonderful dog care couple! I will never use anyone again except them!”


“Michelle was awesome! She sent daily updates with photos and updated me on my dogs health and how his day has been. My dog has a lot of energy and she takes him on good walks. She met with us before hand to meet my dog and go over the process of what drop off looked like which made things super easy! Will definitely book with her again.”


“YAQI took such great care of our Latte! She was very attentive and thoughtful, and she sent us lots of photos every day so we always knew how Latte was doing. He was so happy staying with her, and we felt truly at ease the entire time. We will definitely book with YAQI again the next time we.”

“Anna was super kind and accommodating. She did take pictures (which I so appreciate) including on walks. My dog was a bit high energy and Anna managed well - I know because he came back tired. Also, super helpful when we had to cut the trip short. TY Anna!”

“Rhondarose was fantastic! She took wonderful care of our dog while we were on vacation and kept us updated the whole time with messages and photos. It was such a relief knowing my pup was in great hands. I highly recommend her!”

“We were so happy with the care that was provided for our two dogs. We received pictures of our dogs. They looked happy. She alway went the extra mile for our dogs. One of the dogs was licking his paw alot and she provided care for him. She kept us informed and we were confident of her care. We are so thankful and will definitely recommend her with your dog.”

“Buddy was sorry to leave all his new friends but happy to see Mom & Dad. Marta did an excellent job and would certainly recommend her. Thanks Santa and Mrs.Claus 🎅🤶”

“Thanks to Rusty, I was at ease traveling for a few days with the dogs in his care. Rusty has a dog-friendly space indoors and out and was attentive to the dogs’ individual personality traits and needs. This was the first time I’ve left them with a sitter and both dogs responded well and appeared comfortable. It’s a huge relief to know that Rusty is available to care for my dogs if I need to be away.”
