About: i’m patient, detail-oriented, and genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality. i take the time to make shy or anxious pets feel safe and comfortable, and i adjust my approach depending on their energy level and needs. i’m also very reliable with routines and communication, so you can trust your pet is getting consistent care and attention. pet care is part of my everyday routine, as i currently care for two kittens with consistent feeding, cleaning, and play schedules. i’m used to planning my day around their needs, so incorporating additional pet care is something i can do reliably & consistently. when caring for pets in a client’s home, i focus on keeping their routine as consistent as possible. i follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, litter box cleaning, playtime, and any specific preferences your pet has. i take the time to understand each cat’s personality—whether they’re social or more independent—and adjust my approach so they feel comfortable in their own space. i also keep the home tidy and provide regular photo and message updates so you always know how your pet is doing.
“Tamara is awesome! She’s always communicative and punctual. Our dog Archie loves walking with her and waits by the door for her to come on the days she walks him.”


About: I've had pets since I was 9. From 9 till now I've had cats, dogs, fishes, and guinea pigs. I have experience with dealing with pets that may have previously trauma issues also with pets that may need careful care like medince or special needs. Even pets that don't need extra care just pets that wants to have long walks or need a lot of play time . I am currently in school. So I will be working part time for Rover. Evening and nights works best for the weekdays and for the weekends I am open for anytime you need. For cats do have multiple cat bags if they need to brought to a appointment or any where else. And foot dogs if you don't have a leach I can get one but I would prefer for you to have leeches and rates of pets need to be taken out of the house .
“Mariam has been a great dog walker for our senior dog Hannah- she is attentive, observant, caring and a great communicator. She goes above and beyond by giving our cats some attention as well and picks up on small details with our dog who is on medication which brings us such peace of mind.”

About: I cared for and helped train my family's Australian Shepherd and have cared for dogs of all ages and breeds. Comfortable working with all dogs. Open to various tasks and responsibilities. Able to accept both one-time and recurring bookings for both cats and dogs. Happy to accept new bookings as needed. I make sure to follow the wishes of the owner to ensure the dog's routine is disrupted as little as possible. I am happy to follow instructions to ensure the dog is comfortable.
“My boy seemed happy in every photo. She took great care to keep me updated before and after every walk. She even cleaned him up after an accident. I would definitely book with her again!”

“Namira is AMAZING with Hazel! She's a great communicator, super great to chat with, and, most importantly, my dog loves her. She even helps reinforce training, which is so important for my 5 mo old pup. Can't wait to rebook with Namira!”

About: Hello!! My name is Julia I’m 23 and I love animals. Ever since I was little I’ve always had a special interest in nature and animas especially cats! One of my favorite childhood memories is rescuing feral kittens in my neighborhood and finding homes for them. In my teens years I started dog and cat sitting for friends and family and ever cared for horses and rabbits in my high schools FFA. As of now I’m a painter and artist with a lot of time on my hands and would love to spend some quality time with your pets! When staying with a pet I like to follow a schedule for potty and feeding times since familiar routines can calm pets that might be anxious around new people :)
About: I’ve loved animals since I was a kid. My many years of pet ownership has trained me for this opportunity. My Chewy is both happy and healthy. I’m recently retired. My daily schedule is built around the needs of my boy, Chewy. He’s walked at minimum three (3) times a day; my friends and family know the routine. I have a secure deck to allow fresh air and free movement with guaranteed security. I have a crate if needed, but think all dogs should have free movement daily.
About: What sets me aside from other sitters is the love i have for animals. Since i was a little girl I've always loved being around animals they were and still are very therapeutic to me. I've had big dogs from Pitbull's, Dobermann, American bullies, all the way down to tiny dogs; yorkies, shitzu etc. even different kinds of cats you name it. As I've gotten older I've gained sooo much experience to the point I've had at home births with my dogs and cats all by myself; even home training my own animals as well. My goal here is to gain a work related reputation where i can truly start doing what i love and make a name for myself until i can become that super Veterinarian I've always dreamed of being. So far all i have is personal experience with dealing with animals at home and at my job(My residents animals). This would truly mean a lot if i can show off my skills and how genuine i am with animals and even people. Pet Care currently fits for me during the week days. I work doubles every Saturday and Sunday; whereas for school i do online Vet courses which is self pace. Which means i am free during the week Monday-Friday between 9am-5pm if communicated at least at least 30min-1hr in advanced i could stay later if needed. Although, I am a mother which means i can not do any services past 7pm nor any over night services. I also am located downtown Chicago but I am willing to travel!! One thing about me i will spoil your baby(s) haha; I am very hands on and affectionate with animals unless they require space lol. I have never been a crate animal person BUT i know every household is different and every animal requires different training. Again, animals bring a lot of joy to my heart; very therapeutic for me and if given the chance you wouldn't be disappointed i promise!.

“Kim did a fantastic job handling and walking my very active yellow Labrador. She was very friendly, communicative, prompt and she followed some of the direction we had left her. Really appreciated her last minute help in caring for our dog! Highly recommend”


“We have been consistently using Beverly since our pup was 3 months old. Beverly does weekly walks for us as well as daycare and overnight stays. Charley loves her Beverly and she has quickly become part of our family.”

If not for Erin moving away we would not let her go :) Erin has been walking Harry every week for several months and Harry knows and looks forward to the days where he gets to see her! We appreciate her consistent care and patience with Harry, who is a sweetheart but can be reactive, and Erin has always handled him wonderfully. And I so appreciate the sweet notes and model shots Erin sends each walk! 100/10 rating!

If only I can gate keep. I'm so grateful Madison accepted my walk request, She is by far one of my favorite interactions with Rover and my Bernedoodle's favorite walker. Your pup is definitely in great hands with Madison. She's provides prompt updates on walks. It's evident she enjoys being around the fur babies. I will be using booking her again if she's available. Thank You Madison!!!!
