“Highly recommend Zhiyang S for pet sitting! She was professional, attentive, and treated my dog Peggy with so much care. I especially loved the photo updates she sent—it was so reassuring to see Peggy doing well while I was away. I'm very satisfied with the experience and will definitely be a returning client. 5 stars!"”

“Wayne watched my 7 month old puppy for 10 days while I was on a trip overseas. Wayne did a fantastic job of making sure my dog would get the attention and safety he needed so I didn’t have to worry about him while I was gone. The fenced in backyard with other dogs around was very beneficial for my puppy’s stay with his energy levels. He gave me daily updates with videos and photos to show how my dog was doing. He also followed all my instructions and made sure to keep away any bones or toys that would have an issue at the home. After the stay, my dog has been behaving well and seemed very satisfied with his stay at Wayne’s.”

“Leslie was AMAZING with our dog! She sent so many photos and updates and my dog was so comfortable with her! I felt like I was leaving my dog with a close friend. She was always communicative and very flexible. Leslie took great care of my dog and I would recommend her to anyone looking for an exceptional dog sitter!”

“Morgan was amazing with my dog! From the moment I dropped him off, I felt totally at ease. She kept me updated with photos and messages, and it was clear he was having a great time playing, socializing, and getting lots of love. Her home was clean, welcoming, and dog-friendly. I could tell she truly cares about the animals she watches. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”

“Michelle did a wonderful job caring for my puppy, Mabel. She was an excellent communicator, kept me updated and sent the cutest photos throughout Mabel's stay. As anyone with a puppy knows, they can be full of energy and a little chaotic at times, but Michelle handled Mabel's craziness with patience and confidence.”

“Judy was great. This was my first time using Rover and her responses were all fast and professional. Her house is a beautiful, comfortable setting and my dog had a great stay. I was out of town for 3 days and received plenty of pix and updates. She's awesome. Highly recommended!”

“Alexandria went above and beyond while watching our dog! It's obvious how much she loves dogs and that she's very attentive and responsible. Never worried about our dog for a second while we were gone, could tell she was having a great time from all the pics. We'll be back!”

“Leaving Beau with Hannah gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. He was so well cared for and came home happy and tuckered out. Amazing communication and a truly wonderful environment. We will definitely be booking again!”

“Tim was great and treated Mila as one of his own. He was great at communicating updates and sending photos throughout the day. He was really flexible with the drop off and pick up time. Will definitely be booking again with him in the future.”

“Katharine did a fantastic job with our 2 dogs while we were away on business. They can home happy and tired! The dogs played in the back yard and got several walks as well. She even kept us updated with lots of photos. I definitely recommend Katharine!”


“Dave is amazing! We had our dog stay with him for a day. Dave took a great care of our boy! I would highly recommend him to anyone who wants their dog(s) to feel comfortable and happy. I will be going back to him for all future help. Thank you so much!”
About: Hello my name is Yesica, you can call me Yesi. I am down to earth, friendly, and caring. I am soft spoken and polite, but can be stern when needed. I am a reliable person who is willing to go above and beyond what is asked of me and what needs to be done. I have been a dog owner since I was in 4th grade but animals have always been a great passion to me. I currently have a Chihuahua and Shih Tzu of my own. They are my whole heart, I see them as family and I hope to care for yours like I care for mine. I want to provide your pet with the most comfortable experience I can. I have helped with dogs from birthing of puppies to caring of senior dogs. I have more experience with small dogs and other small animals but I love to work with larger dogs as well. I am a big believer of proper animal care. An animals well being is the greatest concern I have while watching it. Animals are family, they deserve the best care we can provide. I am always open for constructive criticism, and welcome you to address any issues you may have. I work a full-time job Monday through Fridays 8:45 to 6. But after work I am able to give your companions my full attention. I do step away at times on weekends to complete some of my life tasks but I do not stay away for long. I am a big believer of attending to a pets needs to the way they require. I prefer sitting pets at their homes to stress them out the least possible and keep part of their routine. But I am also very accommodating and can make my home feel welcoming.
“Trish was terrific. She really embraced Charlie as part of the family and made allowances for his age. I really enjoyed and appreciated the daily reports and pictures that she sent.”
“Susan was absolutely great in takin care of Ethel. Ethel felt very comfortable with Susan and I was in peace to carry on with other activities. Susan provided continuous updates with photos on Ethel during her entire stay. I will be a repeat customer with Susan as long as she is available on the dates for future needs.”

“Patricia was very responsive and sent plenty of pictures. She took very good care of our gentle giant, 7yr old golden doodle, and I would definitely seek to use her services again. She is awesome to work with. I would highly recommend.”

“Jeannie and her family were awesome! You can always tell how a dog was cared for by their condition when you take them back home. Our dog was relaxed, and in great condition and spirits when we got him back. The daily update pictures are really great too. We will be using Jeannie again in the future.”

About: Hello, I’m a mother of one, and we own a Siamese cat named Atlas. We had a dog a couple of years ago and he has since passed due to an accident and as we’re opening our hearts to the thought of a new member we’re also opening our doors to care for pets while we go on our own journey of finding our own Canine Best Friend. We reside in a a very safe- family friendly neighborhood.( Elgin, IL) Our cat; Atlas stays indoors and in his own room as he likes his privacy so there is no worries about anccidental ill encounters. Since I am a home-maker, a have a lot of time on my side. My regular routine with a toddler is very active in terms of going outside, going for walks, running etc and we wake up everyday with the same goal. “Be tired by the end of the day” 🏃🙏 Yard is UNFENCED. All dogs will be on their leash when playing in the yard. If they have an EXTENDED length leash, it’d be great for them to run around more freely!
“Freya was fabulous and open with communication about our pet. They constantly sent us pics and updates on the status of our Waffle. I feel they went the extra mile on caring for our baby. This was my first experience using this app and now I am willing to keep using it! Thank you Freya!!”

This is now our 4th time leaving our dog in Robynn's care. She takes excellent care of him and I never worry while he's with her. I appreciate the updates and videos Robynn shares daily and I can see that our dog is comfortable and enjoys the environment. Also, he is on several medications and I really appreciate Robynn's great care with administering his meds.

Sheila truly loves the dogs she watches! While she was watching my German shepherd someone was shooting off fireworks nearby. She let him lay on her so he could stay clam, he is over 100lbs! Will definitely book with her again, I could see through the pictures she sent that he had a blast and was very comfortable with her!
