Over fifteen years providing calm, compassionate care to dogs. Loving caregiver to my beloved Lucy, from puppy to senior.

I offer Meet & Greet video calls and in person visits. I wholeheartedly look forward to providing you safe and genuine care.

“Super flexible with my dog. Made her feel comfortable in her new environment. They took lots of pics and sent to me throughout my time away. My dog came back tired but happy. Thank you”

About: Growing up with pets, I learned how important it is to make sure animals feel safe, happy, and cared for especially when their families aren’t home. That has shaped the way I care for pets today: with patience, attention, and the same love I give my own. For over six years, I’ve been the go to sitter for friends, family, and neighbors. I've cared for pets of all ages and personalities. What sets me apart is how personal I make each visit. I take time to understand what makes your pet feel secure and tailor my care to match their routine. My goal is always the same: keep them comfortable, happy, and make your time away as stress‑free as possible. I work a hybrid schedule and live in a pet and family neighborhood, which gives me the flexibility to care for pets throughout the week. My availability is always current, and I’m happy to offer boarding, drop-in visits and dog walking to fit your pet’s needs. My priority is to provide exceptional care for your furry friend! I’ll keep you reassured with plenty of photo updates, ensuring your pet is safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’m also happy to accommodate any specific needs, including dietary requirements, medication, potty breaks, walks, etc.
“Jorge and family are wonderful people! Stanley had a great time and was well taken care of. Jorge’s home is perfectly suited for our dog’s needs and we will definitely be back when needed in the future. Thank you!”

“Linda and her family were amazing! We booked her to keep our three dogs there for our wedding and they went above and beyond to help us transport them/pick them up so the dogs can be in our wedding photos. Great backyard for playing and great people!”

“Maria and her family were fantastic! She provided daily feedback and pics of our dog Jack. From the moment we met you could tell how much her and family love and care for dogs. They treated Jack like part of their family. I know Jack will be missing them. But we will connect again in the future! Thanks Maria!!”


“This was Benji's first time with Pennie and it went really well. Pennie was great with Benji and I was comfortable leaving him with her. The meet and greet went well and Benji and her dog got along. She sent pictures and kept me posted on how Benji was doing over the course of the stay. We did an overnight as a trial to see how Benji adjusted and will use Pennie again for dog boarding.”

“Kelly and Tariq were awesome! I received regular updates which put me at ease since this was the longest I had left my pup with anyone. Definitely will book with them 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.”

“Arlo had a great time with Kristine and her family! Communication was clear and we received several photos and updates while we were away. It was great to know he was safe and happy while we were traveling!”

“Elise did a great job watching our dog for a week while we were on vacation. She sent photos and let us know how he was doing. We felt very comfortable, knowing that he was in great hands. I’d definitely recommend having Elise watch your pet!”

“Wayne did a wonderful job. His daily photos really exemplified how comfortable she was at his house with her new furry friends while we were away for a week. We will definitely use Wayne’s services again and highly recommend him!”

“Selena did an amazing job and made the whole experience feel effortless. My pup had the best time ever and even better was Selena was incredible about updating me with pictures and videos throughout it all. Selena and her pups were great in welcoming my boy into their home, I could tell my dog was bummed when his stay ended. I would definitely rebook and encourage anyone looking for someone they can trust to take of their pets to look no further”

“Keith was a great host for my Frenchie Nugget. He does interviews and asks all questions you could imagine about your dog. Keith took amazing care of him and Nugget felt like he was at home there. I was nervous he wouldn’t do well but he did great thanks to Keith. 10/10 would and will book again.”

“David and Mary were great in taking care of my rescue dog. He can be a challenge with other dogs and some people, but his stay with David and Mary was perfect. Thank you again for taking great care of him!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - West Chicago
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!

There are 5,484 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in West Chicago. About 91% of West Chicago sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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 sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in IL ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
