About: I've taken care of dogs since I've been able to drive, along with owning dogs all my life! I enjoy taking them on walks, playing with them and comforting them when their owners are away! I also volunteer at the Weat Suburban Humane Society! I'm pretty flexible with hours, Mondays and Tuesdays are the only days of the week that I can't walk dogs during the day, however late afternoon still works! I have extra leashes, harnesses and creates if needed, but will treat anything with respect and care as if it were mine own. I'm flexible to a range of schedules and dog personalities
“Jennifer is great! Super flexible, which works great for our ever changing schedule. Our dogs love her, and they are much more content and relaxed now that they are getting regular walks.”
“Sarah is nothing short of incredible & amazing!! From the way she communicated on the first day, to her positive, sweet & energetic demeanor with both me & my dog Dixie. She was on time, thorough in telling me about their walk & it's easy to see she enjoys what she does. As a company, Rover is very fortunate to have someone like her, a part of their team!!”
About: My goals is always to give the pet the best care possible. I have taken care of pets that have special needs such as assisting with walking with a harness, medication administration, as much TLC as they need. I am an absolute animal lover and my goal is to achieve trust, with the pet parent and the pet. Also, to provide the best care as though they were my own. I currently work as an oral surgeons assistant, and my hours change each week. I’m open for walks or sits throughout the week with boarding on the weekends. I am very flexible with the pet parents needs! I always establish trust with the pet first, they need to feel comfortable first and for most. And I make sure that the pet is on the leash prior to leaving and or starting a walk. If I am boarding I have a fenced in back yard along with a very loving French Chow to keep your pet company. If need be she can always spend time elsewhere in the home if you are not comfortable with you’re pet being around another pet.
“Jacob was great with our dog Millie! He took the time to get to know her and her needs - was very attentive and put our someone anxious dog quickly at ease!”
“Megan is great with my dog. She is great about in touch before, during and after her time with him. I really like that she had a background in animal sciences. Makes me feel really comfortable knowing someone so good with animals is walking my dog :)”
About: I can run, walk, or bike with dogs. I love playing with animals anywhere- whether on a trail or in a dog park. I can also play with multiple dogs at once. I’m currently working part time, so any days off I will use to dog walk nearby! I work 3 days a week on a varying schedule, but I will input off days as soon as I’m made aware of them. I have a cat and a dog who are very loved and cared for. My cat doesn’t go on walks, but loves looking outdoors and laying in the sun. My dog usually goes on 2 walks daily and loves playing fetch and tug of war.
About: I have owned/cared for animals my entire life. I have owned all types of animals, including: dogs, cats, frogs, geckos, horses, and fish. I have cared for other animals, including: pigs, goats, sheep, geese, and chickens. I volunteered at a veterinarian hospital for 2 years and my wife is on the board of “Real Dog Moms of Chicago”. I currently walk/dog sit for a military family that has a senior dog and a 1 year old dog, both with very different needs. I work full remote from my home and am very flexible. I also have experience with both large and small dogs (Mastiffs to Chihuahuas) and all types of cats. I have also walked and dog sit for a rescue pitbull that was a former fighting dog, that the owners will only let me or themselves walk. I love animals and will do anything to make them comfortable, loved, and cared for. I genuinely love the animals I care for. I take care of my own 2 cats and 3 dogs, have continuously helped friends and neighbors with their pets as needed and genuinely love animals. I am flexible with time and work from home with a car. My pets are spoiled and loved for with true care, compassion, and attentiveness. Just tell me exactly what you need, what the animal needs, and I will take care of the animal so you can feel comfortable when you are away. I always send updates and pics with every walk, homecare, or visit. You will always be kept up-to-date and in the know.
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life. I volunteered at humane society in high school (to take care of dogs and cats and as a walker). I started dog sitting in the past year and it works great with my schedule. I don’t currently have a dog, so it’s nice to see their smiling faces! I work from home so it is easy for me to drop by for a walk, to let your pets out, for meet and greets and to be here for drop offs and pick ups. I do live in a one bedroom (no roommates, family or pets of my own). There isn’t a yard which is part of the reason I haven’t gotten a dog but I live super close to a park or if the dog is more energetic and needs a run, I’ll take them to closer off baseball field to play fetch. When I dog sit at people’s houses, I follow whatever schedule they ask me to (in regards to when and what to feed the pets, how often to walk, if one is crated, etc). I usually meet them at their house a few days before they leave to go over where everything is and to meet their pets.
“Karli has been so helpful. She is the first person we have used from Rover, and I am thankful for how helpful she has been. She was available to take my dog for on short notice and is extremely friendly. I will definitely be using her services again.”
About: I have grown up with dogs and have been dog sitting since I was 13. Though I don’t have a dog of my own I understand the work and responsibility to care for one and I do not take that lightly. I love these for legged friends and would love to be able to help! I work a 9-5 remote job. This does allow flexibility to walk dogs in the morning, during the day and after work. I am most available during the week however depending on the weekend I can be available as well. Unfortunately I do not have enough space to care for your pet in my own home, however when caring for your pet at your home I will be respectful of your space and ensure your pet stays on their routine.
“Stephanie was amazing to work with. Very responsive, good communication, and patient. Fozzy had a great walk that he didn't want to go back inside the house! I'm looking forward to working woth her again in the future.”

Whether it’s a quick walk or a longer outing, she always makes sure the dogs are safe, happy, and well cared for. Zoe treats every dog like her own, and they absolutely love her for it.

William S.
“Bill (William) is the best! We absolutely love him and trust him with our fur babies! He always goes above and beyond and has helped our family more than I can count. He walks both our dogs daily M-F with extra walks when needed. He also helps in the evening with them when other family stuff comes up. He went above and beyond when I was swamped with kids and work and one of our pups (she’s actually really old) decided to stop eating. Honestly, you can’t find a better person to care and love on your pets!”
