Dog Sitting Willowbrook

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. I was never allowed to have a dog growing up so I would help out my neighbors wherever i was living at the time when they were at work. I also volunteered at an animal shelter for a couple years and went through proper training on how to take care of and make both dogs and cats feel as comfortable as possible. I was finally able to convince my parents to let me have a dog and I have been the main caretaker of my golden doodle smudge for about three years now I have recently switched jobs so I have a lot more free time on my hands and am finally able to get started with Rover after wanting to job for years. This way I can take care of and love on all of the animals and I can take some of the responsibilities off of another animal parent because I know it can be hard sometimes. My dog gets two meals a day and a snack around lunch time. We go on a short morning walk and a longer evening walk after dinner. For overnight house sitting my goal is to make sure to follow the routines that clients already have in place for their pets as not to change their schedules. My boyfriend Cameron and I love taking care of the dogs and giving them a special staycation

“Desiree is so nice and did such a great job taking care of my boys. Desiree thankfully took my last minute request and was so easy to work with. So thankful to know they were taken good care of. ❤️ She did way more thank needed and we very much appreciate her!”

About: I enjoy being around dogs. I have taken care of many dogs for my neighbours, friends and relatives. They relied on me to feed and walk their pets for many years. Everyone was happy including the doggies. I have plenty of time available for watching pets. Caring for dogs or cats in owners homes and providing quality care is my main priority. I am very cautious about dog's safety. During walks l choose safe surroundings and make sure that dog gets enough space to play and enjoy being outdoors.

“I forgot to disable my alarm one day and she made tremendous effort to t try to contact me and even stayed longer to keep my pup from hearing the alarm go off. Fantastic person and sitter.”

About: Animals have been a central part of my life for as long as I can remember, but English Bulldogs hold a special place in my heart. I trained and raised my own English Bulldog for 9 years, who grew into a special needs senior: blind in his later years and on multiple daily medications. Loving him through every stage taught me what bulldog parents already know: these dogs are one of a kind, and they need a sitter who understands them. Bulldogs aren't just low-maintenance couch potatoes, and I know the details that make the difference. I understand their stubbornness, heat sensitivities, and breathing issues. I stay on top of daily wrinkle cleaning and regular ear checks to prevent irritation and infections, and I'm happy to apply nose butter and follow your dog's grooming routine if needed. I also have the patience to work with a stubborn bulldog mood. Managing multiple daily medications and caring for a blind senior dog taught me to be organized, gentle, and attentive to any changes in routine, appetite, or behavior. My experience goes well beyond loving animals. I've worked at both a pet store and a local animal hospital, where I cared for a variety of animals, cleaned enclosures and kennels, maintained a sanitary environment, tracked food intake and behavior, and administered medications. Working alongside veterinary teams taught me to notice small changes and flag concerns early, so every animal in my care is safe, comfortable, and closely monitored. Don't have a bulldog? Don't worry! I've had years of experience caring for dogs of many breeds, plus cats, small animals, aquatic pets, and more, and I've provided trusted in-home pet care for neighbors and family members. Whether your pup is a personable bulldog like mine, or any other beloved companion, under my care they won't just be looked after. They'll be understood, loved, and treated like family. A recent Elmhurst University graduate, I currently have a flexible, full-time availability to dedicate to pet care, meaning your pets get my full attention and availability any day of the week. When I visit your home, my top priority is making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and as stress-free as possible in their own environment. I know that unfamiliar faces can be an adjustment for some animals, so I always take a calm, patient approach and let your pet set the pace when it comes to warming up. During drop-ins, I'll follow your routines closely: feeding schedules, medications, behavioral notes, and any specific preferences you've set for your pet. I treat your home with the same respect and care I'd want shown in my own. Everything will be left exactly as I found it. For dog walks, I keep a close eye on body language and surroundings at all times, keeping walks safe and enjoyable. I'm experienced in handling dogs with different temperaments and energy levels, and I'll always make sure your pup is secure before heading out. I'm also happy to provide updates, photos, and notes after every visit so you always know how your pet is doing, because peace of mind for you is just as important as good care for them!

“Jessica truly saved the day by rearranging her schedule to fit in a last-minute visit request, for which I'm incredibly grateful. She was very responsive and communicative throughout the entire process, and she took wonderful care of my cats while I was away!”

About: I am passionate about rescues and helping people with their everyday pet care! I have 4 rescue animals at home, 3 cats and 1 dog. I rescued my dog last year and he is a 90 lb pit bull! I take him to training every week, and we enjoy long walks near the ocean! I also work 3 healthcare jobs, so I know what it is like to be busy and want the best for your pets during the day. I hope to help relieve someone’s everyday stress by providing a walk or play time for their furry loved ones. Knowing my dog is well cared for during the day helps me to have a better day too! I can’t wait to meet many new dog friends along the way!!

“Chelsea was great with Carl. I plan to contact her again if I ever am in need of a drop in or walker.”

“Isabella was wonderful with my very senior pup. Would definitely love to use her services again in the future.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs for over 10 years, helping friends, family, and neighbors with their pets. I’m choosing to offer pet sitting as a source of income, but it’s also something I genuinely love doing. I travel fairly often, so having a dog of my own isn’t the right fit for me right now. Spending time with other people’s dogs brings me a lot of joy, and I’ll give yours the affection, attention, and care they deserve.❤️ My schedule is flexible, so I can make time for walks, playtime, and keeping your pet company. I do travel occasionally, but I keep my availability up to date and only accept bookings when I can give your pet the attention they need. I’ll follow your pet’s usual routine and any instructions you leave for feeding, walks, and care. In your home, I’ll respect your space, keep doors and gates secure, and send updates so you know how your pet is doing.

“My cat loved her and she was very responsive!”

About: I currently work at an animal rescue in Ridgway, CO. Relocating to LaGrange, IL in late July! I have worked at the shelter since February of 2025 as a pet care specialist and have been the animal care lead since February of 2026. I’ve had experience handling and caring for dogs and cats of all ages and sizes. As well as hamsters, bunnies and lizards! I have experience in medicine administration and promise to give your pet the best care! Pet care is a regular part of my daily routine. I make sure my dogs are fed right on schedule, have fresh water, get exercise and attention. I also ensure a clean, comfortable environment. Each week, I also set aside time for grooming, cleaning supplies and living areas, and monitoring their overall health to ensure they stay happy and healthy. I am someone who can keep a schedule consistent whether that means feeding, walks, giving medication, etc. I know basic obedience training and can give said training on walks and with puppies (potty training, basic commands, etc)

About: I love dogs and love taking care of them. I have experience sitting up to three larger dogs at a time for up to a week. I take them on fun walks, make sure they are well-fed and given plenty of water, and I love playing with them and giving them lots of cuddles and love. But I am also firm when I need to be and keep them in line. I also have a kitten whom I absolutely adore, he is 7 months old and I’ve had him since July 2021. He is neutered, and he is full of energy so I’m sure he would love a playmate. Leaving your cat with me you can be assured that he or she will be well-fed, given lots of love and plenty of toys and room to play. I currently work part-time from home and because I create my own schedule, I have plenty of flexibility. My preferred hours are Monday-Thursday, 9:00 am-5:00 pm for walks and playdates. For boarding I can do any day of the week so long as you don’t mind your pet being left home alone for short periods of time. I give pets lots of attention and make sure they have everything they need. If at any point my kitten and your pet are not playing well, I can put my kitten away in his crate or in another room. I will provide toys, and of course you are welcome to bring your baby’s favorite toys. I love playing with cats and dogs so you can be sure they will have a great time. I live in a pet-friendly condo in a quiet, safe neighborhood, and if needed I can take your dog to my dad’s house 5 minutes away where there is a fenced backyard with plenty of room to run around.

“Morgan was fantastic! This was my first time using Rover and I am so glad I chose her. From the moment that I messaged her, she was very responsive. That’s when I knew she was the one that I should book with. She followed all of my detailed directions for both of my dogs and even provided one of them with medication. I booked her 4 times in one day and she always communicated, provided me with a thorough recap and even sent some pictures. I felt at ease throughout the day because I knew both of my dogs were being taken care of by Morgan. Thank you, Morgan!!”

I work as a barista, so I am the perfect candidate to watch your pup for last minute trips. My schedule is very flexible so reach out! I will give your pets my undivided attention while you are gone so that they feel loved and cared for. I have no problem with difficult pets as well, I don’t judge!
