“Heather has become like a second mama to our cat, Lucy. She takes the best care of her when we are out of town, as if she Lucy was one of her own. Heather’s very detailed visits and photos are a joy to see and read each day. I can’t recommend Heather enough and are so grateful we found her!”
“Dana went above and beyond for our kitties! One of ours is medically needy, plus needed a last minute vet visit. She remained flexible and communicated promptly and made it all so much less stressful for us. She certainly loved on both of the kitties while she did her drop-ins, and we’d use her again!”
“Jacob took such great care of our cat Lilah. He updated us from the start to the end of his visits and sent a lot of pictures. We could tell Lilah was very comfortable with him and liked him a lot! Will definitely book again in future :D”
“Paula is amazing! She knew exactly how to approach our picky German shepherd and adjusted to his needs. She was very calm and comfortable with him. She became his best friend when she walked in with a pup cup in hand. So happy to have found someone reliable we can count on to take care of our fur baby when we go out of town. Thank you!!”
“Great experience! We are so grateful for the excellent care our cats received with Mollie. Her detailed reports alleviated any worries we had about how the boys were doing. She is punctual and communicative, we would absolutely recommend booking with Mollie!”
“Barbara is the best! We ask her to watch our girls anytime we go out of town. Our girls just love her, and we always feel comfortable leaving them knowing they are in great hands. We actually had some unexpected delays and did not return when we had planned, and reached out to Barbara to update and she was so accommodating and understanding. We are so appreciative especially when the unexpected happens we knew we didn’t have to worry about our little ladies back at home.”
“Sahara is a delight. She is communicative and thoughtful. She let's my slow to warm-up dog take her time and truly meets her where she is at. She is timely and makes sure I know how my pup did on her check-ins!”
“Melissa is awesome! It usually takes a while for our dogs to warm up to people they don’t know, but they liked her right away! I’m looking forward to booking her more!”
About: As dog owners we understand the worry and anxiety of leaving your pet behind when you travel. In our home your dog will be affectionately cared for just as if he or she were our own. We are genuine animal lovers here. Your cherished pet will definitely enjoy our securely fenced backyard to run & play in and we also have quick access to various local parks and forest preserves for long walks. We offer care, companionship and mellow walks for those old friends who are less active, too. We recommend that you schedule your pups reservation several weeks in advance, particularly if their stay occurs during commonly busy travel intervals. We're available for drop offs and picks at our home between the hours of 6am - 6pm on a prearranged basis. In order to streamline the drop-off and pick-up process, we request that you indicate and schedule your drop-off and pick-up times when making your pups reservation. Scheduled times for this means that we have reserved this time for you and your pet, and is not available to anyone else. Missing your scheduled time represents a missed opportunity for your pet to arrive when it's convenient for you. We are extremely flexible and generous with our time, however, if scheduled times are missed we can't guarantee that we'll be available and you'll be asked to reschedule. We value your time greatly and we rely on you to be punctual so that everyone's schedules can be met. We're looking forward to meeting you & your furry friend! See you soon! 🐶 Jon & Toni We work from home allowing us plenty of time for cuddles and play time. We're available for boarding 7 days a week, 24 hours a day including holidays. We have a secure 6-foot fence allowing your pup to run, play or just sniff the property without the worry of your cherished pet escaping.
About: I grew up in a family of animal lovers—cats, dogs, birds, even pet cows, turtles, chickens, hermit crabs, and more! Pets have always been family to us, and they were deeply loved and cared for. I’ve been caring for animals my whole life and still do occasional pet sitting. Now, I’m excited to offer my care through Rover! I’ll go any length to keep your pets happy—whether that means giving baths, going on long walks, or showering them with love and plenty of pets. I’d love to treat your pets like the family they are—because they deserve the very best. I’m a part-time college student who also works and babysits, so pet sitting is the perfect flexible gig for me! My schedule changes week to week, but I’m available for morning, afternoon, or evening visits most days, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine. I can do drop-ins, walks, feedings, baths, playtime, and give your pets all the love and attention they deserve. Weekends and some overnights are also available with notice—just reach out, and I’ll do my best to fit your needs! When caring for your pet, I’ll treat them like one of my own—with patience, love, and attention to their unique needs. I’ll stick to their routine as closely as possible, whether that means feeding at specific times, going for walks, cleaning up after them, or just giving them extra cuddles and playtime. I make sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away. My goal is to give your pet not just care, but genuine companionship and kindness every visit.
“Samantha watched our 3 kitties while we were away. She was extremely professional in dealing with us, and super fun with the cats. She spent time playing with them, even trying to coax the shy one out to play/pet. We got tons of great pics every day with great communication. We would definitely recommend her and will hire her again the next time we leave town!”
About: I have taken care of many dogs through dog sitting care as well as 3 1/2 years experience being a dog bathing professional at PetSmart inc. I am currently a college student with lots of extra time to care for your pets! I love being around pets and miss them in my pet free college housing. I am a quiet, calm person who can make your pets not feel stressed when I am in your home, offering them a calm and safe environment.
About: I’ve loved dogs my whole life and have over 10 years of experience caring for them. I grew up watching my neighbors’ and friends’ dogs, and of course, taking care of my own. I also worked at a veterinary hospital for 2 years, giving me hands on experience caring for dogs/cats with different needs, temperaments, and conditions. I treat every pet like family and understand how to provide both loving attention and practical care! I’m currently working part-time teaching tennis lessons and have availability during the week and most weekends. I go back to college September 8th, but before then I would love to care for as many pets as I can! While I’m not able to board dogs in my home, I can provide care in your home and ensure a safe, loving environment. I can also crate your dog if needed and follow any specific routines or instructions you provide.
About: Hi, I’m Sara! With years of experience in dog and cat care, I understand that every pet is unique. I grew up with cats, currently have two , plus a sweet pup, and regularly foster animals, so I’m comfortable with all kinds of personalities and needs. In addition to Rover, I also run a full time, insured, pet sitting service, Sara’s Paws & Claws (find us on Facebook) which gives me even more availability and flexibility for overnight care, and check-ins. I’m here to help make things easy and stress-free. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family! I enjoy walking and hiking with my family. I'm home throughout the week and most weekends & holidays. If it were possible, I'd spend every moment outdoors! When walking your dog, I will require a sturdy leash. I will not walk a dog on a retractable leash due to potential risk of snapping. I will bring my own leash if needed. I will send pics and updates when pet sitting or dog walking.
“Grace was AMAZING and is so knowledgeable about dogs and their unique needs. She was so patient and knew exactly how to get our dog with bad anxiety more comfortable. We really appreciate her help and the updates during the drop- in visit.”

Jake has always been a fantastic choice to watch our 2 cats! We have hired him 3 separate times over the last year and he always gives our cats exceptional care. We think our cats are very unique and with that they bring a few behavioral problems and require unique and complex eating schedules. Jake makes sure they each get the individual care they need. We know we can trust they will have clean litter daily, get fed correctly, and be given the attention they deserve. Jake also takes the time to communicate with us daily. We will continue to book with Jake for our pets in the future!
Paula is amazing! She knew exactly how to approach our picky German shepherd and adjusted to his needs. She was very calm and comfortable with him. She became his best friend when she walked in with a pup cup in hand. So happy to have found someone reliable we can count on to take care of our fur baby when we go out of town. Thank you!!
If you can book Amanda to walk/dog sit/drop-in for your dog, do it. Stop looking, book Amanda! My dog, Caesar, is an 80 lb pitbull and we just recently moved from a house to an apartment, so he is very anxious because of the new sounds and environment. I booked Amanda for walks/pop-ins because I work downtown everyday and I can’t stress enough how incredible she has been! She has been so patient and loving with Caesar, and he isn’t always the easiest dog to be patient with, especially on walks (that 80 lbs is all muscle and if he isn’t ready to go home, he plants his feet and good luck moving him). It isn’t always the easiest to find someone to take care of Caesar due to the stigma that comes with his breed, but Amanda didn’t care about his breed or size. She just cared that a dog needed her, and she stepped up. So if you are looking for someone who will give your dog the love and care they expect because it’s the same love and care you know they deserve, you need to book Amanda.
Catie was able to take my dog on several walks during a weekend that I was out of town. It was short notice and she got back to me promptly. My dog liked Catie despite the dog being a little bit skittish. I was not the one to meet Catie before hand but my girlfriend did and gave her a sterling review so I felt comfortable having Catie stop by the home while we were away to care for the dog. Would use her services again and would recommend to others as well.
