Brandi was great with our dog and two cats! She even got our shy cat to come out for pets. She sent lots of pictures and treated our animals like her own! It was so nice to leave and know our animals were in good hands.

Jaymee is awesome. She keeps us posted and sends pictures everyday. Our babies get excited when she comes to visit. She just watched them for a week. She washed all the bedding and emptied the garbage before she left. We will continue to work with Jaymee for all our overnight needs.

I wholeheartedly recommend Connie McCoy as an outstanding dog sitter. Over the course of caring for my dogs, Connie has consistently demonstrated a high level of professionalism, reliability, and genuine affection for animals. She always ensures that my dog is well-cared-for, receives plenty of exercise, and adheres to any specific instructions I provide. Connie is trustworthy, communicative, and goes above and beyond to make sure that my pet is comfortable and happy while I'm away. I have full confidence in her ability to care for my dog and would not hesitate to recommend her services to others.

First time ever using a service like this. Brittany and Branson made the whole experience easy and worry free. Getting updates from them gave us piece of mind. We would definitely like to use them again in the future. We can not thank them enough for caring for our little girl like their own.

Theresa did a great job with Ramoncito. This was Ramoncito’s first time with a sitter and he needed some time to adjust. Theresa was patient with him and helped him be comfortable with her. We are extremely grateful for Theresa and we will definitely use her services again in the future.

Emily has cared for my dogs on numerous occasions and done a fantastic job. One of my dogs has some emotional/aggression issues and Emily handled it with ease. She stuck to their feeding schedule and did a great job walking them. She made sure to check in frequently and send pictures to put my mind at ease so I could enjoy my vacations. I would have Emily dog/house sit anytime! :)

About: I have been caring for dogs and cats since i started volunteering at the animal hospital in freeport il. I started doing that when i was ten years old. I have attended just under two years of schooling towards being a zoologist in the past as well. I started fostering with my grandma when i was 14, and I have successfully adopted out 12 pit bulls that would have been put to sleep :) I have pet sit since i was old enough to babysit kids, my grandparents on my dads side were missionaries and would always have me take care of their three cats Lucy,linus, and peanut. I have also helped Noah's ark and Winnebago country with fostering off and on for many years (20 ). I look forward to snuggling your pooch! I work for myself, and can usually be be available almost anytime you need me to be. I am a very responsible and responsive person. I have a fenced yard, harnessed leads and two smooshy olde English bulldogs to keep your fur baby company. I also have cats they can play with , my cats aren't scared of dogs.

Sandy has been wonderful watching over my two dogs. I was in Indiana traveling when I found out that the Rover dog watcher couldn't watch my two dogs anymore. When Sandy found this out she came to my rescue. She was able to watch over them at my house. I was so relieved that she was available and willing to do so. She took real good care of them and administered my labradoodle's medicines. I received updates throughout the day for several days until I got home. Thank goodness she was there for me and my two dogs.

Lili was a pleasure to work with. She was very responsive and always kept me posted with pictures and videos of my 2 cats. We were gone for 10 days and she stayed at our house, I felt very safe with knowing she was there. The cats both got their medications and I will use her services when we travel. Highly recommend her to take care of fur babies. She is very sweet, thank you Lili.

This was my very first experience using a pet-sitting service. I chose Estefanny because of her very high ratings and she did not disappoint. My ancient kitty Larry doesn't do well staying by himself anymore. Estefanny not only assured that he had regular meals, water, and meds, but she also stayed with him at night so he wasn't lonely. Larry clearly loved her. She sent an update and photos every day, many of which showed him on her lap or in the spare bed, so he was obviously comfortable sleeping with her. To be honest, I expected her to be great with Larry. What I didn't expect was, after 5 nights sleeping at my house, I couldn't even tell she had been there. The place was exactly as I had left it - I swear she packed out her own garbage! Estefanny clearly cares for pets and is pleasant, reliable, and responsive. The highest recommendation I can give her is that I'm headed out of town again next month and I've already booked Estefanny to take care of Larry. The whole experience was just terrific!

We absolutely loved having Maggie dog sit Tilly and Hazel! She was on time and very thorough and kept us updated! We got tons of pictures and that made us so at ease being away from our dogs! She even assisted with meds and some other things! 100% would have Maggie back and would ask her again!

About: I’ve owned and taken care of various breed sizes my entire life, as well as provided pet sitting. I have experience with staying in the clients home, providing a unique diet, and caring for elderly animals. I am currently working part time, only 20 hours a week. I have some days in which I am less available which we could discuss, but typically am free a majority of the time. My house is a very pet friendly home with one small dog in the home. I live near a dog park and would feel more than comfortable taking them!
