Top rated Virgie house sitters

“Hannah is amazing! One of our cats is diabetic and needs insulin injections and has a special diet while the other is very shy and wary of new people. Hannah was super communicative and understood their needs so well. She worked with me throughout the stay to make any adjustments as needed. When you have a pet with medical needs, being able to have a stress free weekend away is the best compliment I could possibly give!”


“Jen did a wonderful job with our new puppy! She sent many pictures and updates daily. Very attentive to puppy and to the home. We would definitely recommend her to our friends!”


“Kimberly was so attentive to all of our dogs needs! She made sure they were safe, happy, & healthy. We have more high maintenance dogs and she was the perfect sitter for them. In addition to making sure our dogs were perfectly taken care of, she went above and beyond with house sitting too! My house is going to be sad I’m back because Kimberly took such great care of the house and garden! 🥰”


About: I love animals! I’ve had pets all my life. We have always had dogs, my sister has a cat, and when I was younger I also had 2 rodents similar to chinchillas! I just moved back home and have full availability. I can work any day at anytime. I will really be able to provide your pets with my full attention! We walk my dogs every single night. I also feed them and play with them. I will be able to provide your animals with the same level of care that I provide for my own pets.

About: I've been taking care of dog for as long as I can remember. I'm able to take care of/ watch dog from puppies to seniors. I've watched dog with and without disabilities, and I know how to administer medications from pills to shots. I also know how to preform cpr and the heimlich if needed. I currently have a part time job where I get to choose when to work. So I'm able to spend time with the fur babies whenever. I'm very respectful of my clients homes, and I follow rules that they set of me. I like to keep my clients updated on what's going on with plenty of photos, and I always try to make sure the fur babies I'm watching have a good time.

“It was such a wonderful feeling coming home and seeing how well not just my pups, but also my home was taken care of. Highly recommend Heather for peace of mind and will definitely use again.”


“Being a first time dog owner and needing someone to watch Taylor was a bit nerve wrecking for me but I was easily calmed when we met ahead of time and saw how much Taylor enjoyed you. Thank you for caring for her like she was your own. I have no doubt we’ll be seeing you again in our future needs. Thank you!”


About: I’ve lived with and cared for dog my whole life, from labs, Great Pyreneeses, mutts, and others in between! I have supported my hometown neighbors with caring for their animals, whether that’s by walking, feeding, bathing, administering medication - I’m comfortable with it all. Over the past 7 years I have been a mom to two cats and have helped friends and family care for their felines. I truly believe our pets are family to us and I treat all animals with all the love and care they deserve 🤍 I’m currently working part time, so I have flexibility in my schedule to help care for your furry friends! I currently reside in Northwest Indiana and work on the southside of Chicago on Thursdays and Fridays, but if you are needing my services I’m open to discussing how I can meet your scheduling needs 😊 I am not currently offering care for animals in my home due to my two year old cat who has not quite yet met other animals. However I am more capable of caring for your pets in the comfort of their own home.

About: Depending on the needs of your animals, I can come over how many times you need me to and take care of them! This even includes staying overnight if it is what your animal needs! As of right now I am currently unemployed, taking 1 online college course, allowing me to have flexibility to care for your precious animals all throughout the day! Animals are always most comfortable in their home environments and for this reason, pet care in a place where they are used to is best. I do require meet and greets before I take care of your animal, just so you know they are in safe and trusted hands!

“What a great experience we had with Kimberly! She stayed with our Benni for several days and was super attentive to his "senior" needs. She sent updates with photos every day, which really put us at ease. We will certainly use her services next time...”


“I am so grateful that we found Cindy to watch our 3 pets. Our dog is 9 years old and this was the first time we left her with anyone besides my son. As soon as we met Cindy, I knew she would take good care of them. We received updates while we were gone and everything ran very smoothly. If we go on any other trips, I hope Cindy will be available to watch our animals. Thank you!!”

Erin C.
“Finding someone to care for my two Chihuahuas was pretty scary. They can't talk so how will I know the Rover sitter is taking good care of them? It's how the dogs act around her that made me know I made the right call. They just care that she's got treats, but I'm thrilled that she is always on time, happy to see my girls and most importantly, trustworthy. If you're reading this just hire Erin already, you're found the right person! 10/10 highly recommended.”
