Cathy is so lovely and caring. She has watched our pups in last minute situations and has been wonderfully accommodating. I think one of the dogs might break his tail from wagging it so hard with excitement when we pull into her driveway. Thank you Cathy!

This was our first time using Rover for one of our dogs so I was a little nervous. Janis sent pictures of our dog every day while we were gone. I felt very comfortable leaving Remy in her care. Our pup seemed happy and well taken care of. I would definitely recommend her to someone and will be reaching out again if we ever need a sitter. Thanks, Janis!

It was our puppy’s first time away overnight and we are so happy with the result. He had a wonderful time and is totally adjusted and comfortable with mark, Jackob and Nancy. They did a fantastic job of being flexible on pick up and drop off times and kept us updated the entire time.

Meredith did a great job with my two girls! I was a little concerned at first, not sure if she could handle my 10 month old German Shepherd, Jream, but overall, she did very well even without having a fenced yard. My girls still got a full hour of playtime in a nearby fenced area where they were able to run and play ball freely. Meredith followed all my instructions, and I would definitely use her again.

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!

Shawne and her husband were very welcoming and ready for the dogs upon arrival. They were receptive to the dogs' routines and ready with kennels. They have outdoor space and live in a nice neighborhood. Shawne was really great at keeping us updated with texts and pictures. The boys were happy and had so much fun that they were exhausted when we got them back from all of the fun activities.

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, and dogs have always had a special place in my heart! Growing up, my family had dogs, horses, goats, chickens, cats, birds, fish—you name it. Caring for animals has always been second nature to me, and over the years I’ve become the go-to pet sitter for friends and family whenever they go on vacation. I understand that every dog is unique, whether they’re full of energy and love long walks or prefer cuddles and a relaxing day at home. My goal is to make your pup feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away by keeping their routine as normal as possible. You can expect plenty of playtime, belly rubs, potty breaks, and lots of love and attention. I treat every dog as if they were my own and will keep you updated so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind, knowing your furry family member is in good hands! I currently work full-time from 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM and have an hour commute each way. Because of this, I offer boarding for pets who are comfortable being alone for an extended period during the workday. I am fully available on weekends and can dedicate plenty of time to your furry family members! I also offer evening dog walks and drop-in visits after work. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions about my schedule or your pet’s specific needs—I’m happy to accommodate whenever possible! Your pet will be welcomed into a safe, loving home away from home! I live in a top-floor apartment with carpeted stairs and plenty of windows, perfect for curious pups who love to look outside and watch the world go by. There’s also a private dog park directly across the street from my complex, giving your dog a great place to play and burn off some energy. My neighborhood is quiet and pet-friendly, making it ideal for long walks and plenty of sniffing adventures. I make sure every pet gets lots of attention, playtime, potty breaks, and, of course, treats (with owner approval!). My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable, loved, and cared for while you’re away, treating them like part of my own family.

I can't recommend Monica enough for anyone in need of a caring, reliable, and overall amazing dog sitter. She was incredibly responsive and accommodating, making the booking process a breeze. During our time away, Monica kept me updated with regular photos, a video and messages, which really put my mind at ease knowing that our Gracie was happy and well taken care of. You can tell that Monica has a genuine love for animals. Upon returning home, I could tell that my dog had a fantastic time with Monica and her family. Gracie was relaxed and happy. I will definitely feel comfortable with leaving Gracie at her house again when we need to go away.

My little Delilah felt right at home when we had our Meet and Greet. I had no concerns about leaving her with Madelyn after that. She was still excited to see me when I picked her up, but not so excited that I worried she wanted to leave and had a bad time. I have no doubts that Delilah was well cared for while I was away!!

We have a newborn so we really appreciated the convenience of that! She sent us a lot of updates with pictures and we will definitely use her in the future for our fur babies!!

About: I've grown up living with dogs and have been the primary trainer for my family's dogs. I do pretty well working with new pets and can handle full size dogs. I'm an engineer who gets home from work around 4 or 5PM. My weekends are empty 3/4 weekends a month. I can do overnights on Sunday and during the work week if your dog is used to being alone 9-5. I have a small yard, and live next to the beach. I typically walk my dog to the beach 2-3 times a day on the weekend and she swims often. I usually use a harness to walk dogs, never leave them unattended outside since I have no fence. Make sure they have food twice a day and water always full.

Cole is an incredible and responsible dog sitter that I can trust my pets with. My dogs are very nervous and need some time to adjust to people, especially men, but Cole has went the extra mile to make sure my dogs feel happy and are properly cared for when I can’t be there. He is always quick to respond, easy to work with, and gentle with all my animals. You can tell he truly loves animals and and he has been nothing but kind and professional. If you feel nervous about getting a pet sitter, I would definitely consider contacting Cole for your needs. Thank you Cole for being so good to my Rudy, Po and Beano!

Bowser was given wonderful care for a long day at Jordan's. Bowser can be a bit reactive, but Jordan assured that she had dealt with such and her manner when I dropped him off kept him relaxed. Apparently he complained for a bit and then settled right in, getting to know a small dog and cat. I was camping at the dunes and was able to spend a day in Chicago riding the South shore in from a station not far from Jordan's. I will definitely be doing this again it went so well!

About: Your sweeties are in caring hands 💛 ✅ Experience with pets of all ages & personalities. ✅ Work from home: Attentive to strict care plan. ✅ Happy to assist with training/manners 🐾. As a pet owner of 35 years and a life-long animal lover, I’ve cared for my own puppies, kittens, and elderly pets over the years. Their quirky personalities have brought nothing but joy to our home! I’ve also cared for exotic littles such as snakes, bearded dragons, hamsters, gerbils, chameleons, ferrets, parakeets, Sun Conure Parrots and farm animals (chickens, pigs, horses, “farm sitting”)! Don’t hesitate to ask if you need additional help. We have 2 dogs of our own: One loves to socialize and play with our guests, while the other usually searches for the sunniest window in the house, to nap until the next potty/treat break. Working from home allows me to be attentive to strict potty/medication and walk/play schedules (if your pet is in need of a regimented care plan). I offer drop-in play dates, walks, back-yard potty/play dates and feeding/litter changes, based upon your instruction. I’m also able to host your pets in my home, if you need a sitter. Before booking boarding services with new clients, I request a meet & greet, so that I can get to know everyone and have a clear understanding of your pet’s personality and needs 😁!

Marshmallow had a WONDERFUL first experience at Nancy & Mark’s Day Care! Sooo wonderful she’s scheduled for future Day Care dates as well as an upcoming Boarding weekend. I couldn’t be happier to have found a place, close to home, where my sweet, but scared and anxious, rescue is FINALLY comfortable other than with me!! Due to past trauma, Marshmallow suffers from SEVERE separation anxiety and can be fearful around large dogs, thus the fact that there is always a person present as well as the laid back and comfortable environment provided by Nancy & Mark was ABSOLUTELY perfect to calm ALL Marshmallow and Mommy’s concerns!! I was sent pictures, a video and updates throughout her stay. We truly feel blessed to have found such a GREAT fit!!!

Shannon and her family were incredible with our pup. She came home happy and tired each day. We felt very comfortable leaving Lola with them and we got regular updates. Her kids and Lola became the best of friends! Thank you so much again for caring for her!

About: I enjoy having dogs, and started using this website when I went out of town. Because of this, I know the high standard of care I expect from my sitter, and what you should expect too. I will take the time and care you would for your own dog. I'll give them snuggles, playtime, and lots of outside time depending on the crazy weather we have here of course. Myself and my doggy friends love to take walks, play tug-of-war, fetch and other games your dog enjoys or might enjoy. If your dog comes to our house we have a fully enclosed backyard. It is a great big yard enough to play fetch with a few dogs at the same time. Some just like to sun bathe and watch everyone else run around. Your dogs will have so much fun, and will be well loved while they are here. When my doggie friends come back for a visit the owners tell me the dogs are excited when they turn down my street. I have a Yorkie named Jack, and 3 mini Bernedoodles named Elenor, Dahlia, and Franklin. I am not taking unneutered or unspayed dogs at this time. I have lots of available hours to spend with your pets. My schedule is consistent usually, but fairly open. In the past, I was walking dogs. Not sure if I am going to start doing that or not. I have a fenced in yard and 4 dogs to keep your dog company. We can play in the yard or hang out in the house. I have lots of toys and balls.

Kiana was great. We were visiting from out of town and wanted to bring our fur baby. However, the weather was extremely cold and my daughter and I wanted to go to the outlet mall but had no clue what to do with our pup. I reached out to Kiara and god a near immediate response. We were able to enjoy our trip and our pup was happy too. She got a walk and lots of love and attention and had a blast playing with her dog. She was nice and worn out for our long car ride home. Definitely recommend!

It was a relief with all of our funeral planning taking place in Chicago, to know that Ms. Bernice was going to take care of Niko. This was his first time at any day care and it seems that this will help us as we work with him to socialize with other dogs. Overall, she was very cooperative, reliable and conveniently located to our hotel. We would use her services again.

About: Got a cavalier when kids left 20 years ago and have been in love with and taken care of pups for family and friends ever since! I work part time as a sub at a local school lunchroom. Consequently, I have a good deal of time to do what I enjoy most, spending time with and caring for pups!! (and on occasion, cats!) I live in a lovely neighborhood with a nice balance of open space and paths for walks. My husband (also a dog lover) and I have a fenced yard and pup bowls and leashes and toys and even a small crate (from Harley) if your pup feels better taking a nap in it! (and he fits!)

Alexis was absolutely fantastic taking care of my baby Luna! Luna is only 6 months old, has a lot of energy, is not fully trained and I'm sure was a handful for someone to walk in day-one and manage, But she did above and beyond. She brought toys and puzzles, made sure Luna was fed and properly walked. She updated me on how the walks went, when she arrived and left, told me about the other dogs Luna got to meet along the walks and seemed totally joyful and sincere about spending time with my sweet girl. I will be hiring Alexis over and over in the future!

About: As someone who has grown up with pets of all shapes and sizes from dogs to even a pair of pet rats at one point, I have always loved animals and will take any opportunity to spend more time with them! I have a senior dog named Buddy and a cat named Maple and would love to pour the same love I give to them into your fur babies by playing with them, walking them, and attending to all of their needs. My childhood dog Buddy is also blind, elderly, and diabetic, so I have experience and am very understanding of pets that may need special accommodations and/or medication. Not only do I have experience with the many pets I’ve grown up with and taken care of, but I also have experience working in a pet store and boarding facility taking care of any animals you can imagine. I am currently home for the summer from college and have pretty flexible availability and would love to fill my time taking care of your pets! I promise to give your animals the same love and care I would give to my own pets. I’m excited to keep your pets happy and healthy by walking them, playing with them, snuggling with them, and giving them the undivided attention they deserve.

I have owned pets all my life, both cats and dogs, and have been their primary caretakers. I am heavily passionate about animals! I currently have two dogs and four cats. I am 23 and have a driver's license. I love animals more than anything, and would do whatever it takes to make your pets feel happy and safe in my company! I am currently unemployed, so I have plenty of time to take care of other people's pets! I live in a household with other people, so I'm more than able to housesit, as well! I love to keep animals company, and I will do whatever I'm asked to do to take care of someone's pet. If said pet is undergoing training of any sort, I'm willing to make sure that training is implemented throughout the visit, walk, or stay. I absolutely love giving furbabies my attention and love, but will go at the pets pace. I won't force my affections on an anxious animal.

Meredith did a great job with my two girls! I was a little concerned at first, not sure if she could handle my 10 month old German Shepherd, Jream, but overall, she did very well even without having a fenced yard. My girls still got a full hour of playtime in a nearby fenced area where they were able to run and play ball freely. Meredith followed all my instructions, and I would definitely use her again.

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!

Shawne and her husband were very welcoming and ready for the dogs upon arrival. They were receptive to the dogs' routines and ready with kennels. They have outdoor space and live in a nice neighborhood. Shawne was really great at keeping us updated with texts and pictures. The boys were happy and had so much fun that they were exhausted when we got them back from all of the fun activities.

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, and dogs have always had a special place in my heart! Growing up, my family had dogs, horses, goats, chickens, cats, birds, fish—you name it. Caring for animals has always been second nature to me, and over the years I’ve become the go-to pet sitter for friends and family whenever they go on vacation. I understand that every dog is unique, whether they’re full of energy and love long walks or prefer cuddles and a relaxing day at home. My goal is to make your pup feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away by keeping their routine as normal as possible. You can expect plenty of playtime, belly rubs, potty breaks, and lots of love and attention. I treat every dog as if they were my own and will keep you updated so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind, knowing your furry family member is in good hands! I currently work full-time from 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM and have an hour commute each way. Because of this, I offer boarding for pets who are comfortable being alone for an extended period during the workday. I am fully available on weekends and can dedicate plenty of time to your furry family members! I also offer evening dog walks and drop-in visits after work. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions about my schedule or your pet’s specific needs—I’m happy to accommodate whenever possible! Your pet will be welcomed into a safe, loving home away from home! I live in a top-floor apartment with carpeted stairs and plenty of windows, perfect for curious pups who love to look outside and watch the world go by. There’s also a private dog park directly across the street from my complex, giving your dog a great place to play and burn off some energy. My neighborhood is quiet and pet-friendly, making it ideal for long walks and plenty of sniffing adventures. I make sure every pet gets lots of attention, playtime, potty breaks, and, of course, treats (with owner approval!). My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable, loved, and cared for while you’re away, treating them like part of my own family.

Jess was great! Very responsive with clear communication. Lucy was spoiled rotten with snuggles and outside time. Jess sent tons of pictures and kept us updated with how Lucy was getting along with her friends. She even dropped her off at our house at the end of the puppy slumber party. Highly highly recommend!

I can't recommend Monica enough for anyone in need of a caring, reliable, and overall amazing dog sitter. She was incredibly responsive and accommodating, making the booking process a breeze. During our time away, Monica kept me updated with regular photos, a video and messages, which really put my mind at ease knowing that our Gracie was happy and well taken care of. You can tell that Monica has a genuine love for animals. Upon returning home, I could tell that my dog had a fantastic time with Monica and her family. Gracie was relaxed and happy. I will definitely feel comfortable with leaving Gracie at her house again when we need to go away.

April is the best! I bring my dog to her instead of leaving him with family because he loves her house and dogs so much. Great communication and clearly a massive dog lover.

Shanie was so accommodating to our last minute booking which definitely helped with our stress. It was also so helpful of her to not only pick up our dogs (for free!!) but to also then drop them off! We have a newborn so we really appreciated the convenience of that! She sent us a lot of updates with pictures and we will definitely use her in the future for our fur babies!!

About: I've grown up living with dogs and have been the primary trainer for my family's dogs. I do pretty well working with new pets and can handle full size dogs. I'm an engineer who gets home from work around 4 or 5PM. My weekends are empty 3/4 weekends a month. I can do overnights on Sunday and during the work week if your dog is used to being alone 9-5. I have a small yard, and live next to the beach. I typically walk my dog to the beach 2-3 times a day on the weekend and she swims often. I usually use a harness to walk dogs, never leave them unattended outside since I have no fence. Make sure they have food twice a day and water always full.

Tonisha is very kind, flexible, responsive. I missed my drop off window and she was very gracious. She shared daily photos and asked about Langston’s behaviors to ensure he was safe i.e.going on walks, etc. If possible, we hope to work with her again.

Flexible, conscientious and kind, Angelique cared for my dog as much as her own pets. She voluntarily provided updates which reduced my worries over leaving my dog for the first time. I will choose her with confidence the next time I need a dog sitter.
