“Giada was great with my cat, Apollo. She played with him and gave him social interaction while I was gone and also administered his medication. She was very easy to work with and a great sitter!”
About: I have had the pleasure and joy of being able to take care of lots of different animals for over 10 years. I spent some time on a farm where taking care of sheep, pigs, chicken, ducks, and the barn cats and dogs was a daily thing. Later on, I was the proud mama of a german shepherd named Bruno who stole my heart in every way. Unfortunately he is now gone since November of 2023. Since then, my lifestyle has changed and I am not able to have another dog of my own due to long working hours four days out of the week. However I love taking care of pets, especially dogs, and this is the perfect way to still have a connection with these wonderful creatures, even if they are not my own :) I promise to take care of yours as if it was my own! They will be royally treated with me! My Fridays through Sundays are free from other work and I would love to be able to take care of your pets, especially your dogs! I have a spacious home where your pet can feel free to roam and rest. I also have many trails I can take them on walks. There is also a spacious park area where we can play around if that's what your dog prefers! If I am coming to your home, I am more than happy to walk them short or long distances, play with them, or tend to any other pet needs!
“Anna was amazing! My kitty had dental surgery recently and had some dietary restrictions. Anna was super accommodating and asked me if she had any questions. She went above and beyond what I asked her to do for my kitty. She also sends tons of pictures and a detailed report. Will definitely use her again!”
“We have never left our dogs with someone before/had someone come over to do drop ins for our dogs, so I was hesitant on trusting a stranger. But at the meet and greet, I knew Sarah was going to be awesome! She was thorough with her questions, got a great understanding of the dogs, even asked questions I didn't think of! I felt our home and dogs were safe with her the entire weekend. She gained our trust instantly (which is not something that happens often)! The dogs loved her and had the best time with her!?”
About: I’ve taken care of every kind of dog since I was 15. Neighbors, friends, family have all relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their fur babies. I’m an animal lover who used to be a jr. Naturalist; I love all animals. I’m currently working a before school care program and an after school care program with the park district. I am available for walking pets starting at 9am-3pm (Monday- Friday) all year round. For pet setting it depends on the time and date. I live in a townhouse with a family friendly neighborhood; I don’t have a fenced in yard, however, I do have a park that we can let them ran around. Your pet won’t be lonely in our home we have a fur baby ourselves, Nigel (west highland terrier). I would look after your fur baby like my own, walks three to four times a day, fed as often as needed, play time, love and compassion. Your fur baby is apart your family and will be cared for that way.
About: For multiple years I've taken care of various pets, including both cats and dogs. I've done dog walking as well as visiting throughout the day to change food/water. I love animals and will show that love through how I care for them. I do not have a full time job, and have a very flexible schedule right now. I can easily adjust my routine to accomodate pet care. I can't currently have pets in my home, but I've cared for pets multiple times in their own homes, and provide quality and loving care.
“Thea was so meticulous and empathetic to my cat’s needs during my time away. She also provided adorable photos, videos and notes. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great catsitter or dogsitter!”
About: I've had my own dogs and cats in the past 25 years, been a dog walker off and on since 2017, and my first job was caring for neighbors dogs since age 13. I am available for pet sitting on Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays, and Mondays. I have a somewhat flexible schedule on the other days of the week, but work on those days. I care for all pets by following their needs as stated by their owners or Rover's guidelines. I usually greet each and every pet warmly, find out what their usual routine is, and follow that.
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life and caring for them is a passion of mine. I have experience with dogs of many breeds and sizes, reactive dogs, cats, and medication administration. I understand and appreciate that every animal is different and am more than happy to accommodate to their unique needs. With a chronically-ill cat of my own, I understand that being away from your pets can be stressful, and I hope to provide the same peace of mind that Rover sitters have given me. I am nearing the end of physician assistant school and will have a good amount of free time while awaiting licensure and full-time employment. My current schedule is somewhat flexible, so we should be able to make something work! When caring for a pet in their own home, I fully accommodate to their normal routine. I am happy to meet beforehand to discuss the ins and outs of your pet's individual needs.
“Spencer was a blessing. I was nervous to leave my pets for an extended time and he helped ease my nerves and made it so easy. He's very polite and you can tell he loves animals. I got pictures every night and they seemed perfectly content hanging out with him. Thank you Spencer!”
About: I'm a huge dog mom and the type of person who will stop and pet every single dog on the street. A perk is that your pup will have a buddy in the house! Because my apartment is already used to taking care of my little dude, Cooper, I love bringing in other dogs so that he has someone to play with. Cooper is an 8 month old pup that's full of character and loves to play - he gets along with everyone! I’ll love and take care of your dog like my own. I work remotely, so I'm always home! This makes it easy for potty breaks or walks, as I like to do both through out the day. I also have a car if they want to come on errands with me, and a doggy camera for anytime I'm away. We have a fenced in back yard and live on the first floor. Pups are permitted on the furniture and to sleep in bed! Plenty of space and dog friendly.
About: I started my own dog walking service when I was 15 I walked all the dogs in my surrounding neighborhood I had over 20 clients. From walks to drop in and bathing the dogs from time to time. I currently have unlimited availability and am here to meet all the new pups and help deliver exceptional service and dog training services if requested by owner. At this time I do not have a yard for pups to play in would mostly be looking to being the pups on walks and drop ins

Kaitlin W.
“Finding a truly dedicated pet sitter/walker is rare—but Kaitlin is one of a kind! I have known Katie for over 20 years and her love and dedication to animals has always been remarkable. In highschool, she watched our family yorkiepoo for us while we went on vacation. Years ago, she watched our family minpin for us. She raised her own Westie for 13 years, ensuring it was well cared for and truly part of the family. Currently, Katie is raising an 8-month-old Westie, Nigel. Anyone who entrusts their furry companion to Katie, can be sure their pet will receive the same devotion and attention that she's always given her own.”
Tikvah C.
“Tikvah has cared for my two cats multiple times while I've gone on vacation. I always ask her to come back because she does an amazing job! Tikvah clearly loves animals and stays for extra time to play with my cats even though I don't require her to do so. She is very trustworthy, always shows up when she's supposed to, and follows feeding/care instructions very well. I definitely recommend her as a caring and trustworthy pet sitter!”

Wheeling dog parents share their Rover experiences
Claudia has been an absolute lifesaver this past month. She’s easy to coordinate with, incredibly responsible, and her visit summaries are thoughtful and detailed. Reading her drop-in reports is always a highlight of my day. Thank you, Claudia, for taking such great care of our dog!
Stephen and Donna did an excellent job walking our Great Pyrenees mix several times over a few weeks. You could feel their love for dogs from the moment we met them and they were very communicative and kind throughout the whole process. Our boy enjoyed and looked forward to his walks with them and we would definitely recommend and use their services in the future.
