“This was my first time using Rover as a client. This was my first time using Sarah. Sarah did a great job of taking care of everything. She had a lot of items to check for functionality. Sarah did an exceptional job in dealing with my daily changes that occurred as I had to find the perfect routine for my outdoor cats. Some things went off line but she went with the flow and was able to transition nicely with the issues. I hope she will sit for me again if asked”


“My 15 year old pup,Trevor,was comfortable and well taken care of during Erika’s two drop in visits on the same day. I booked kinda last minute but Erika was able to come take care of Trevor exactly when he needed to be let out and visited. I appreciated the detailed visit notes and many photos Erika took of Trevor. I highly recommend Erika for doggy care and hope to be able to have her come help with Trevor’s care in future. Thank you!”

“I reached out to Evelyn on short notice due to an unexpected funeral and on a holiday no less. She responded very quickly, came by for a meet and greet, and took care of our girls for 2 days. She was great and our dogs were happy to be at home instead of boarding. Evelyn was great and I certainly recommend her. We will definitely use her again!”

“Rae’Na is the best there is! She takes wonderful care of our puppy during drop in visits. She is always very attentive, detail orientated, and professional. Would recommend her to anyone!”

“Kamron was great! My husband and I were away overnight for a friend's wedding and so we had her do check-ins every few hours. She sent pictures and was great with communicating. She was also great during the meet-n-greet with our dog, which is usually when he goes the most berzerk with meeting a new person! I would definitely book her again.”

“Amy is wonderful with our cats and they seem very comfortable with her. She always spends time playing with them. And she always seems to get the best photos of them, too! I've got some great shots! My babies are family, and we consider Amy part of the family, too!”

“Doreen was a huge help when I went on a week long trip. My two cats have automatic feeders so she came to keep them company, refill their water, and clean the litter boxes. Her updates were very helpful while I was away and put my heart at ease that my cats were doing great! I would definitely love to use Doreen again in the future!”


“Kimberly was amazing. She did drop in visits for a week for my two dogs and took excellent care of them. She is professional, courteous and communicative. I highly recommend her!”


“I would like to thank Stephanie for stopping by and looking after my two cats! I appreciated the pictures and updates I received while I was away. I highly recommend Stephanie to anyone looking for a cat sitting service.”

“Kellie was wonderful! Great communication and took amazing care of my cat Cleo. Very thankful for her help, especially with additional check-ins scheduled. I highly recommend Kellie!”

About: I have been pet sitting for several years ever since I was around the age of 13. Additionally, I work at Anderson Humane in South Elgin as a kennel tech and have been working there since August! I have worked with many different animals as a Kennel Tech, I also have experience with administering medicine and I am Fear Free certified. My animal experience is very important to me as I plan on majoring in animal science on the pre-vet track this upcoming fall when I head off to college! :) I work part time but I have plenty of time to care for your pets otherwise. My availability is open most of the time so just let me know when I’m needed and I should be able to accommodate! I look forward to meeting your pets! I am experienced in ensuring your animal stays comfortable and happy even if they may get nervous meeting someone new for example... I have lots of experience working with shy and reactive dogs and am comfortable with all temperaments because I can handle them well! I know how important your pets are so I am well prepared for anything!
About: I'm located in Sycamore, IL and am familiar with the surrounding area. I’ve been caring for dogs of all ages and sizes for most of my life, from puppies to senior sweethearts. Whether it’s playtime, long walks, or just plenty of cuddles, I make sure every dog feels safe, happy, and loved. I understand that each dog has their own personality and needs, and I take the time to get to know them so they feel right at home with me. Your dog will be treated like family—with patience, kindness, and lots of belly rubs. On each visit I can spend 30 minutes or a couple of hours, even overnight - whatever your fur baby needs. I'm currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to give your pets the love, care, and attention they so richly deserve. I'm happy to spend a quick 30 minutes, a few hours, or overnight - whatever your fur babies need! Some holidays are available, but do fill up quickly. I will provide your pet with the same care and consideration that you do. I'll make sure they not only have their food, water, and bathroom breaks, but plenty of playtime, walks, and love on the schedule you wish them to have. Keeping their routine as close to normal is my goal while your pets are in my care.
About: When I had roommates, they have a cat who has wobbly cat syndrome (Cerebellar Hypoplasia) which makes him walk a little funny! He can’t go more than two to three steps without falling over, and eating is quite a challenge. Having cared for him has made me really patient and understanding of animals. I recently just left a data entry job, so I have all the time in the world to care for your pets! I love animals more than people so they are going to fit perfectly into my daily routine. I would spend time with your pet as much as you’d like! I love spending time with animals whether that’s playing with them, giving them pets, going on walks or just being next to them giving them company!

About: I have had family dogs all my life. Currently I have two senior cats and two Belgian Malinois who are part of my family. We’re a very active family and enjoy being outdoors. I’m a stay at home mom which allows me to have a flexible schedule, unless I have appointments for the kiddos. I’m part time military so I won’t be available those weekends but I’ll let you know in advance 🫶 I’m a stay at home mom and a weekend warrior, iykyk. Availability is open unless I’m scheduled for drill and I’ll give an advanced notice or if I have appointments scheduled. I’ll follow your instructions to the T. My dogs have taught me a lot about dog behaviors and what to look out for. Either way I tend to avoid anything that may upset any dog. Cats are much more independent and they usually just need feeding and cleaning.
About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my eight years of hands-on experience with a wide variety of animals—not just dogs and cats, but also birds, chickens, and horses. I bring a calm, confident presence that helps animals feel at ease, even those with special needs or unique temperaments. I understand that every pet is different and take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and personalities. My background in animal care goes beyond the basics, and I treat each pet like my own—with patience, respect, and genuine love. Whether it’s a cuddle session, a long walk, or specialized care, I’m here to provide reliable, attentive service you can count on. Pet care is part of my daily routine, both at work and at home. I’m a kennel attendant at a veterinary clinic, so caring for animals is literally what I do every day. Before and after work, I’m already on a routine with my own two Aussies and three cats — feeding, walking, and playtime are built right in. That means I’m used to early mornings, late evenings, and structured schedules, and I’m happy to work around what’s best for your pets. I always follow your instructions whether that be taking your dog out on a long lead, or constant watching in your fenced in yard. I make sure they get fed on time, potty breaks if they need them a certain time apart, ie every hour, etc.
About: I have been taking care of my Australian shepherd since I was twelve years old. I've been grooming her, walking her, training her, and feeding her since I was a child. Throughout my life I have gotten two more dogs and many more animals that I have loved taking care of. My college classes have all been online so I have had plenty of time to be at home and spend time with my three dogs. At my home I have three dogs. Two that usually keep to themselves but one Husky that loves to play. I have a large fenced in back yard with plenty of room to run around, as well as cages to crate dogs if needed.
