“Absolutely recommend Nichole, she was so kind and very accommodating accepting a last minute booking and even offered to pick up my dog Riley when I couldn't drop her off. She kept me updated, sent pictures and even gave her a bath. Thank you Nichole! Will definitely book again with her in the future.”
“Debra and Mike are just the best with my little old lady. They play with her and take her on walks. She loves all the snuggles and attention they give her. We will always book with them for our girl. The best for our needs!”
“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!”
“Excellent care. Our senior dog was well cared for while staying with Barbara. Daily updates and photos let us know our pup was happy. Highly recommend Barbara and we will definitely book again!”
“I highly recommend Nancy and Mark. We received updates including pictures throughout Bailey’s stay with them. I could tell Bailey was comfortable the first time she met them. We will definitely use them again.”
“We booked with Ellie for a meet and greet and a 6 hr daycare experience! Our very shy beagle warmed up to her and her dogs on her first visit! Ellie kept us informed throughout the day and sent lots of pictures too!”
“Emmitt had a good time with Mandy and her family. Her house was perfectly set up, great yard. Daily updates with photos. Emmitt had a lot of playtime and exercise. First time using Rover, I feel like Mandy was the right caretaker for my pet. She made us feel comfortable and I would definitely use her services again.”
“Najah was so great with Kash. So much so, he didn't act like he wanted to leave her. She kept me updated on his behavior and how ge was doing the entire time with texts & photos. I will definitely be boarding with Najah again.”
“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.”
“Noel was incredibly accommodating, especially considering our last-minute request. She kept us informed and shared lovely pictures of our fur baby throughout his stay. He appeared so happy and relaxed! Thank you for everything!”
“Holly was great with my shih tzu. My little guy is very chill when he’s around humans but gets anxious when he’s home alone. So it was great for us that she works from home. She shared updates and pictures with me throughout his stay which was very helpful for me to see he was doing well snuggling and relaxing with her. I plan to keep her in mind for the future.”
“Moppet really enjoyed his time with Bernice and playing with the other dogs his size in Bernice's beautiful back yard. He is looking forward to spending Thanksgiving with her and Cheddar. Bernice sent several pictures of him. Not only did he look happy and playful, but she actually got some really good pictures of him! (When I get out my phone to take pictures of Moppet, he turns his back to me like he doesn't want his picture taken.)”
“It’s so cute to see my Chaseypoo interact with Amia and Joshua, the kids and their pups. They adore her and she comes home happy and tired and ready for a nap.”
“The nicest person I’ve ever met, She treated my problem child ( chocolate lab Henry ) like a pro and one of her own family. She can handle anything. And deserves 10 stars.”
“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.”

“Hannah was amazing! This was my first time hiring a sitter off Rover and naturally I was a bit nervous to do so but when I came across her profile and saw how much experience she has with all kinds of animals, I knew my kitties would be taken great care of! She was always available and dropped in every day to give me updates and pictures. I would 1000% hire her again and would recommend her to anyone looking for a 5 star sitter! Your babies will get the best care in Hannah's hands! :)”

About: I’ve had my own cats for over a decade. I know how to engage their playful behavior with toys and cat nip. I’ve had years of experiences to draw from, and dealt with everything from fleas and ticks to old age and emergency clean up of pet accidents.
“I highly recommend Hannah. She did a great job caring for my cat while I was out of town for several days. I just moved into a new house so I was concerned leaving my cat alone and she spent a lot of time here with him. Communication was great. She sent me a lot of pictures. And I could tell that Bruno was in really good hands. I would for sure recommend her to anybody that needs their pet or pets cared for.”
“Cindy was great with our dogs while we were on vacation. She was very good at communicating with me how things were going with them and it made me feel so much better knowing our dogs could stay in the comfort of their home while we were gone and receive amazing care.”

On top of that I do potty breaks first thing in the morning and before bed. I have a puppy proofed home since I have a pup of my own.

“Amber is awesome! Our second time working with Amber. We had previously worked with her back in October and when a trip after Christmas came up, she was the first person we thought of. She's super awesome about checking on the little ones and making sure all was right with them. The kids and I loved the updates with the photos of our little ones. While we always worry leaving our pets home, we felt good knowing they were in great hands with Amber.”

About: My husband and I have been dog owners for many years. We recently lost our Yorkie, Sage, at age 12 to cancer. We decided to not get another dog at this time, but would love to be a pet sitter for your precious pup. Both my husband and I are retired and have regular availability. One of us is home at most times. We would require to meet your pup before the stay to ensure good compatibility. We would walk your dog on a leash. Our yard is large, but not fenced. Easy access for potty breaks. We will have open access to our home unless crating is your preference.
“Needed a dog sitter last minute and Mandy was not only quick to respond and communicate, but gave updates and was flexible. Could not recommend enough! Thank you so much!”
“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: 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.

I offer daily walks and lots of play time both outside and inside. I have a fenced yard to offer lots of fresh air and outside playtime, weather permitting. We have plenty of toys to share.

I strive to make this a fun vacation for the pups and create a stress free, fun environment. You will receive daily updates and pictures of all the fun and relaxation of your furry friend.
“Our dog Milo had so much fun at Patty’s! He was super happy and clearly well taken care of while he was there. We will most definitely be coming back in the future!!”
“Very accommodating on such short notice! Sent plenty of pictures of our precious Charlie boy during his daycare stay to let us know he was doing ok! Our dog seemed really comfortable and calm in her care! We will use her again in the future!”
About: My name is Hannah, and I've been taking care of pets since a very young age. I love going on walks, no matter what the weather is, I will walk in any kind of weather just as long as the dog will walk. I like to take my time and build the pet's trust, even when they are shy at first. I always make sure I understand the information that is given to me. I love it when a pup gets used to seeing me, remembers my car, and gets so excited to see me. I did move from IL to Indiana, and i do have about 4 acres to run around to get some energy out. I use to work at a doggy day care. I stay at home taking care of any animal that i have for a petting sitting when i do not have a pet sitting I try to look for walks to meet new pets I have a fenced-in yard and also have about 4 acres of land. I take the pups out to use the bathroom and run them around to tire them out
About: I’ve had pets my whole life and love animals of every kind. I love playing and snuggling with animals and have always loved to care for friends’ pets. At parties, you can usually find me talking to the dogs or cats! After May 31, I will be free all day and will be able to provide continuous care if needed. My husband and two teenagers will also be around to make sure your pets have the best stay ever. I have a fenced in yard and currently, we don’t have any pets after our rescue dog crossed the rainbow bridge this year. At my house, your pets are welcome on beds and couches, though we will also respect boundaries you have at your house. I have two teenage boys who love to play and snuggle with animals. I am also happy to come to your house, as I know many pets are comfortable in their own space.
About: Dogs have always been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Currently, I care for two of my own—Sparky, my sweet 13-year-old Bichon Frise, and Shelby, my playful 1-year-old Miniature Goldendoodle. Having both a senior dog and a young, energetic pup has given me a wide range of hands-on experience, from managing health needs and gentle senior care to keeping up with puppy energy, training, and teething phases. In the past, I also cared for an American Pitbull Terrier for 5 years, and over the years I’ve looked after many dogs for friends, neighbors, and family members. Some of the breeds I’ve worked with include Chihuahuas, Beagles, Golden Retrievers, Pomeranians, and a variety of lovable mixes. Every dog is unique, and I truly enjoy getting to know each one’s personality and quirks. Whether they’re shy or outgoing, young or elderly, I’m patient, gentle, and always happy to provide the care and attention they deserve. I’m usually available Monday through Friday, which means I have plenty of time throughout the day to walk, play with, and care for your pup. Whether they need a midday stroll, some company while you’re away, or just a little extra love and attention, I’m happy to be there for them. I’m home often, so I’m able to keep a close eye on the dogs and make sure they’re always safe and cared for. While my yard is open and unfenced, I never leave dogs outside unattended—they’re always on a leash and supervised, with access to a sunny, enclosed sunroom for extra comfort. For smaller dogs, I have a crate available if preferred by the owner, and I’m also able to provide transport in case of a vet emergency. My home is stocked with cozy blankets and toys that are always available for dogs to borrow and enjoy. Located in a quiet, beautiful area, the home offers plenty of space to explore, bird- and squirrel-watching opportunities, and nearby parks for peaceful outings. The spacious living room and multiple rooms allow for safe separation if needed, ensuring every dog feels comfortable. Most of all, your pup will enjoy peace, safety, and lots of love while in my care.

“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: I truly believe pets have the sweetest souls and can form the best bonds with us, which makes them not just our babies, but our best loyal friends. I have had pets in my home my whole life and I can't imagine it any other way. From snuggles to playing or walking your dog ( if hired for dog walking) I will treat them as if they are my own, with love and attention. I love the many personalities of each fury friend and getting to know each one and connect with them. I do not charge per pet, I charge per visit no matter how many pets you have. I am currently working part time during the day but can adjust my schedule to do drop ins in the early morning, afternoon's and evenings! Feel free to message me so we can work something out! I am Available on most weekends as well. I am not currently offering pet care in my home however I am happy to come to your home for drop in visits and dog walking! I charge per visit, not per pet.
About: My 17 years of experience as a dog owner has given me a deep understanding of each dogs unique needs and behaviors. Over the years, I’ve had the pleasure of caring for dogs of all ages and sizes—whether in my home or theirs—tailoring my care based on each dog’s unique needs. Whether it's providing extra attention for senior dogs, teaching a puppy basic manners, or adapting to any special requirements, I make sure every pet feels loved, safe, and well-cared for. Since my Australian Shepherds don’t have a flock of sheep to herd, I’m their "job" instead! When I’m at home, they’re my loyal little shadows. They’re surprisingly chill for Aussies, but I like to think it’s because I’m an awesome dog mom... and they’re technically working most of the day as my supervisors. They make sure everything runs smoothly by reminding me if I'm even a minute late with their meals, when it’s time for potty breaks, when to wake up my son, when it’s time to play—the list goes on! I offer caring and reliable dog sitting and walking services tailored to keep your pup happy, healthy, and engaged. As a proud owner of two Australian Shepherds, I understand the importance of attention, exercise, and companionship for dogs. Whether it's a stroll around the neighborhood, a quick potty break, or some fun playtime in a safe and nurturing environment, I’ll make sure your dog feels right at home while you’re away. I provide both in-home dog sitting, so your dog can remain in the comfort of their own space, as well as dog sitting at my home for longer care needs. My dogs are friendly and enjoy making new friends, so your pup will have plenty of companionship during their stay. While I do have a crate available if needed, please note that I do not have a fenced-in yard. My dogs love off-leash play, so if your dog needs to be kept on a leash outdoors, please provide clear care instructions to ensure their safety and comfort.

“Absolutely recommend Nichole, she was so kind and very accommodating accepting a last minute booking and even offered to pick up my dog Riley when I couldn't drop her off. She kept me updated, sent pictures and even gave her a bath. Thank you Nichole! Will definitely book again with her in the future.”
“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!”
“Emmitt had a good time with Mandy and her family. Her house was perfectly set up, great yard. Daily updates with photos. Emmitt had a lot of playtime and exercise. First time using Rover, I feel like Mandy was the right caretaker for my pet. She made us feel comfortable and I would definitely use her services again.”
“Noel was incredibly accommodating, especially considering our last-minute request. She kept us informed and shared lovely pictures of our fur baby throughout his stay. He appeared so happy and relaxed! Thank you for everything!”
“It’s so cute to see my Chaseypoo interact with Amia and Joshua, the kids and their pups. They adore her and she comes home happy and tired and ready for a nap.”
“The nicest person I’ve ever met, She treated my problem child ( chocolate lab Henry ) like a pro and one of her own family. She can handle anything. And deserves 10 stars.”
“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.”
“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!”
“Jordan took such care to make sure Patches felt comfortable and safe. She took her time to integrate her into the household, and then sent me pictures every night with her and Jordan's pup as well as her kid. Patches will skip meals when her routine is disrupted, and Jordan went out of her way to correspond with me and encourage her to eat. Very caring, organized, and accommodating. Highly recommend.”
“April was amazing with Korra! She had such a fun time and was clearly so loved during her stay. We got pictures and updates everyday. Again, could clearly see how much fun she was having! This was Korra first 4th of July as well, so we weren’t sure how she was going to react to the fireworks. April did an amazing job at letting us know what she had planned and how she was going to create a safe and calm environment for the dogs. We got pictures and updates on how she was doing/did. I am so glad Korra spent her first fireworks season with April. She was so well cared for. I could not recommend April more. She has so much love and care for her own dogs that she shares with other dogs. Korra is so happy to be apart of Petey’s and Shawna’s friend group!”
“Mariah and her fam were so awesome with Rhea! They were attentive and made sure to keep me updated with pics/ videos and messages. The whole family was warm and receptive! I will def rebook whenever we’re in town again!”
“Lali was awesome! Being new to the area. We had a hard time putting our trust in someone who could watch Rusty. He came home clean and happy!! Her dogs played really well with him. No issues whatsoever.”
“I can’t recommend Nicole enough! She was extremely communicative and it was very obvious how great of a dog mom she is. I felt so happy knowing my baby was in her care. Moose had the best time!”
