“Migle was amazing with our dogs (who can be a lot)! Great communication, GREAT pics throughout our trip -- we felt super confident the dogs were happy and in good hands.”


“We’re so happy we found Elizabeth! Both our dog and our cat trusted her right away, and when we came back from our trip, they were both calm and relaxed. It gave us so much peace of mind to know they had company while we were away. She stayed at our home, everything was great with the house too, and we absolutely recommend her 🙌🏻”



“Cheryl did a wonderful job taking care of our little Yorkie! We LOVED getting pictures and updates. We can back to a clean house and a very happy dog. We were definitely able to enjoy our vacation knowing our dog was in good hands! Thank you so much!!”



“Jenna did an absolutely amazing job. I sent her so many details about the animals and she was so laid back and relaxed. She made them so happy. Thank you so much!”


“I can not recommend Elise enough! She watched our dogs during our wedding and even helped organize them for pictures. She was SO kind, patient, and loving with our dogs. Even with the chaos of the day, she was a ray of sunshine. She made our wedding stress-free and we can not thank her enough for that!”


“Justin is great! I just started booking him this month and have already used his services twice. Banksy is a sweet girl but has some issues with other dogs but Justin hasn’t any problems with her so far. He’s responsive, respectful, and I’ve always come home to a clean house and a happy dog. I’m so glad I found him and will definitely be booking with again soon!”


“Jared came through for us when a previous Rover sitter bailed less than a week before our scheduled vacation which we had been planning for a year. He came over for a meet and greet within a day or two of contact. The pups really seemed to like him. We booked him and he showed up which was a great relief after being let down several times before from Rover sitters. We left him detailed instructions and our contact info if there were any problems or questions. He sent us a pic of the dogs when he arrived for the first day and was communicative throughout the stay. He took great care of the pups and was very respectful of our home. Would definitely recommend him to anyone who is in need of a reliable sitter. We will use his services again.”


“This is now my third time booking with sweet Joree and she has just been the absolute best dog sitter ever!!!! She takes care of my dog so well, is attentive, and communicated perfectly. She is my go to sitter, and everyone should book with Joree!!❤️❤️”


“Karen was fantastic!! We were due to fly to an out of state wedding less than 24 hours after Francine rolled through. It took the city awhile to get power back and Karen happily offered to stay anyway, even without power the first night. It was a huge relief knowing our cat Pixie was in good hands and we were still able to see our friends get married. Karen communicates wonderfully, left our house spotless, and most importantly took the best care of our cat! She sent plenty of photos and Pixie was clearly very happy the whole time. Thank you again Karen, we would love to have you back to watch Pixie again in the future! :)”


“Andy is the BEST!! I was far away and felt so comfortable with Andy being at my home but even more importantly with my dog! Great treatment of my dog and great communication!!! I will definitely ask Andy to care for my dog again!! Thank you Andy!! I completely recommend!!”


“Arissa was wonderful to work with! Our pup wasn’t so sure about having us gone initially but Arissa was super patient and kind. They ended up having a great time cuddling and playing. We’d definitely rebook with her!”


About: I have always been passionate about animals and grew up being a "Dog Girl". I would opt to study dog breeds before bed instead of bed time stories and quiz my parents on walks and car rides. I've cared for Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, Yorkies, and French Bulldogs all the way up to Giant Schnauzers, Bernese Mountain Dogs, and Labradoodles! Once I moved out on my own and moved into a studio apartment I realized that I may not have room physically for a dog but I would be able to help out cats who are waiting for their furever homes. I have been fostering cats for 5 years and have been able to help cats in both Chicago and New Orleans acclimate to home life as they await their adoption. I have "Foster Failed" and do have my own cat, Dolly, who is my constant companion. I often care for my friends animals in the area and look forward to meeting your fury family member! I do have blocks of time through out the day where I can check in and spend time with your fur baby. I have a pretty flexible schedule but it does fluctuate. I would be able to work with your animal's schedule but it will depend sometimes week to week or month to month. I have a lot of free time in early morning, around lunch and late evenings every day with most days having free afternoons and/or evenings. I will not be hosting animals in my home at this time but I do have space for animals as I often foster shelter cats in my home.

“Emily took such great care of our pack (including our senior diabetic cat and senior pup with special needs) and home while we were away. We appreciated the regular updates and adorable photos and felt totally at ease knowing everything and everyone was in great hands. 🥰”

“Vallie stayed in my home with my elderly dog, Birdie, while I was away for a week and did a great job! I trusted that Birdie was in great care while I was away and returned home to sheets washed, trash taken out, and everything as it was when I left. She was extremely understanding and flexible when there was an unexpected leak issue right before her visit that required repair during her stay. Highly recommend Vallie for your rover needs!”


“Super communicative and flexible! Aileen took care of our cat for 4 days while we were gone and sent us really cute pictures and updated us on everything. She was able to administer oral medications too. Would rebook her again”
