About: I’ve been caring for my neighbors’ and friends’ dogs and cats for over 15 years. I’ve also provided house and pet-sitting services, so I’m comfortable caring for pets in their own home and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I’m currently a student with a flexible schedule, so I’m able to accommodate a variety of pet-care needs. I’m happy to work with your schedule and provide reliable, attentive care for your pets. I keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible while you’re away. I follow your instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and other care needs. I also make sure they have a clean, comfortable environment and plenty of attention. Most importantly, I respect each pet’s personality and boundaries, allowing them to feel safe and comfortable in their own home.
“Kate has walked my two pups twice now and she’s been great! Very communicative and flexible even with last minute requests. And I can tell my dogs have had a great time with her! 100% would recommend Kate!”
“Josh is the best of the best. He is knowledgeable, patient and intuitive. When you have a big dog who can be a bit reactive to squirrels, having a walker like Josh makes a big difference:)”
“Chloe was amazing!! She stepped in at the last minute and I am so happy that she did!!! She was prompted on time for all of her visits and gave my dog Charlie all the love in the world in addition to some fun extra long walks! I’m so excited to have found her and will definitely be using her again”
About: I bring years of consistent, hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats in both my own home and others’ including feeding routines, daily exercise, basic training reinforcement, bathing, and companionship.

About: I’ve loved and cared for dogs my whole life and have experience with dogs of various breeds, ages, sizes and personalities. More specifically I have spent most of my time providing care for senior dogs and puppies. I am also comfortable administering medication if needed. I am new to the area and eager to start caring for new pups. I am available 7 days a week from 8am-8pm for walking and drop-ins. If you are looking for services outside of those times, I am open to discussing other hours/schedules to fit your needs. I love providing care in your pets own home where they feel most comfortable!

About: Hey! My name is Alyson and I’m ready to get your dog snoozing and waiting for your arrival. Been pet sitting for years!!

About: I’ve taken care of pets since 2022, when I realized that I was not in a place to have my own dog/cat. So, I decided to help out others with their pet sitting needs, to provide a service as well as be around furry friends again! It truly is something that brings me much joy, and I love every opportunity I get to hang out with dogs and cats alike. I currently work during the day with a mixture of weekday/weekend days, so I let the dogs out after an 8-hour shift. If the dog needs to go out more than that, I will try to be as flexible as possible to adhere to your needs. For my client’s home, I understand that I am residing in someone else’s space, so treat it as such. I believe the dog/cat is most comfortable in their regular setting, this maintain all cleanliness and care for the home included in my price.
About: Having experience with so many different dogs has taught me that every dog is different and has their own personality, energy level, and routine. I try to get to know each dog and understand what they’re comfortable with. When it comes to walking, I’m happy to adjust to their pace and needs. Some dogs love a long, active walk, while others enjoy a slower walk with plenty of time to sniff and explore. I’m patient, responsible, and always make safety a priority. I’m comfortable following specific instructions from owners and making sure their dog’s normal routine is kept as consistent as possible. I also pay attention to their behavior and will let the owner know if I notice anything unusual. I enjoy sending updates and photos during walks so owners know their dog is doing well. Most importantly, I genuinely love being around dogs and treat every dog like my own. I want each dog to feel safe, comfortable, and happy while they’re in my care, and I want their owners to feel confident knowing they’re in good hands. As a sitter, I provide attentive care including feeding, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, fresh water, treats, and companionship. I’m comfortable following specific care instructions for diets, medications, and daily routines, and I make sure each pet’s needs are followed carefully. I also pay close attention to their health, behavior, and safety, and will communicate with the owner if I notice anything unusual or concerning. I believe communication is an important part of being a great sitter, so I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos while you’re away. I want you to feel comfortable knowing that your dog is safe, happy, and being well cared for. Most importantly, I treat every dog like my own. I take the time to learn what your pet likes, what they’re used to, and what makes them comfortable. Whether your dog is energetic and loves walks and playtime or prefers to relax and get lots of cuddles, I want them to feel loved, comfortable, and at home while they’re in my care. Building trust with both pets and their owners is very important to me, and I strive to be someone you can rely on. Hi! My name is Fayth 🐾 I love dogs because I truly believe they’re more than just pets—they’re our best friends and part of the family. I have two dogs of my own: a Havanese and a Malti-zu.

About: I've owned, walked and helped train dogs for 17+ years. I enjoy providing dogs of all breeds and sizes exercise and enrichment, and always put safety first. I carry an extra leash, water bowl, loud handheld horn in the event we encounter stray animals or critters, and also have pet crates in my vehicle should I need to transport a pet to a park or local greenspace at a pet parent's request. I'm currently super flexible as I'm starting up a dog related business from home. I am available M-F with some availability on weekends and after working hours with some notice. Having had many dog walkers and caregivers for my rescue pit bulls over the years, I know how important it is to treat each dog (and their home) like my own. I will provide exercise, TLC, fresh water and food (if food is requested), and plenty of snuggles before I depart.
“Sydney has been a lifesaver! She has been very patient with my older dog who, although very friendly, can be pretty shy on first encounters. She has gone above and beyond of what is expected of her and has always made it a point to communicate with me throughout the day. I work very long hours and I have noticed how happy my dog has been since welcoming her into his daily routine 😊”
About: Dogs have always been a part of my life. I've cared for my own dogs from playful puppies to their senior years, giving them love, structure and companionship every day. Although I'm new to offering pet care professionally, I know how important it is to trust someone with your family member. I'll treat your dog with the same patience, kindness and attention I'd expect for my own, providing a safe, comfortable and loving home while you're away. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive care throughout the day to supervise, provide companionship, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention. Your dog's safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I believe every pet deserves patience, kindness, and individualized care. I'll follow your dog's routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special instructions. I provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away, and I'll treat your dog like a member of our own family.
About: Grew up with dogs and cats and and have been caring for my own pets and watching/housesitting my friends animals for many years. A pet turns your place into a home! I work from home with a flexible schedule, therefore I can give full attention to your fur baby. Having a routine is important to dog's and cat's wellbeing - keeping the same schedule every day is key. My place has a closed-in patio and a yard just a few steps away. It is safe and quiet. The neighborhood is great for walking.
About: I've been a dog owner my entire life. I love all animals and I am so happy to play and love your pet like it's my own!

So I have a range of caring for all ages of dogs. I have 10 years of experience with training and obedience. I'll make sure they get out their pent up energy and you will come home to a happy pup!

About: I’ve been taking care of animals, especially dogs, since I was 9. I love animals and have sat for various types of pets— occasionally I will also get help from my lovely boyfriend.

If needed, I can request an extra set of hands, my boyfriend, to help at no cost to you. I have 2 dogs that I care for on a daily basis. I feed them twice a day, the same time, every day. I make sure they get at least 30 minutes of exercise every day and give them baths once a week.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Villa Park
Mia took excellent care of my dog Raiken when she came to check on him and let him out while I was at work. It’s obvious Mia is an animal lover with a lot of experience being around pets and caring for them which is so comforting as a pet owner. She is also a great communicator and very responsible. I will absolutely have Mia back again and I know Raiken can’t wait to see her! Thank you Mia!
I had a wonderful experience with this walker! They took great care of my beagle, Bear, and made sure he had a great walk. They were reliable, communicative, and kept me updated with photos and messages. It was clear that they genuinely cared about Bear and treated him like their own. I would definitely book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their pet!
Rylan, thank you so much for walking Bruno, he had a wonderful time! Bruno says, "Thanks for letting me stop and snuffle, that's the best part of walking!" I also appreciate that Rylan started walking Bruno a little early, since Bruno and I arrived at the park a little early. 😎👍🏻
I had a great experience with Isabella! She arrived right on time and was very personable from the start. My dog can be a bit timid with new people, but she was wonderful with her — patient, kind, and clearly experienced. Willow returned happily tuckered. I really appreciated the thoughtful feedback Isabella shared after their walk, too. I’d definitely hire her again!

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Villa Park. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins.

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
