“Jada was great!!! My pets loved her. I loved the peace of mind knowing that they were getting attention during the day & I wouldn't have a "mess" on my new carpet.”

“Kaitlyn was great! Gave all of my animals lots of love. Sent lots of pictures and conversed via text with updates. I have one pup that is skittish and a little extra work and Kaitlyn was patient with her and went above and beyond to gain her trust and progress was made in just a few visits. Really happy that I came across Kaitlyn on Rover and will absolutely be reaching out to her in the future. The consistency is great for all my fur babies but especially the one that is weary with new people. Thanks for loving on my animals! Clearly an animal lover <3”

About: I’ve had dogs in my household my whole life. I am friendly, reliable, and able to take care of dogs in need of some exercise or some belly rubs. I used to train horses so taking care of dogs is nothin! I am a college student home for the summer and am available most days except Saturdays. I am also pretty flexible so whatever you and your pet need I can help with. Just looking to walk dogs and house sit at your home so I don’t have much equipment, but whatever materials you provide I can work with and take great care of your pet!

“Chris came to our rescue with little notice, as we had a family event enter our lives, and I can’t thank Chris enough. Our introductory meeting with Tricksy, our Shar Pei, went very smoothly as Chris was confident and open around her. She also listened carefully to Tricksy’s personal habits and idiosyncrasies. Wee felt positive about having the drop-on visits and Chris kept us well informed with messages and photos. Can’t thank her enough for helping us through this time of grieving for my family.”

About: Hi! My name is Julie and animals have always been a huge part of my life. I previously worked as an Adoption Manager at Anderson Animal Shelter, where I gained hands-on experience working with dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, temperaments, and backgrounds. Through my work, I developed a strong understanding of animal behavior, daily care routines, and how to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I also worked as a manager at Pet Supplies Plus, where I further expanded my knowledge of pet care, nutrition, supplies, and the unique needs of different animals. Between both roles, I’ve spent years helping pet owners and caring for animals in professional settings. In addition, I have experience administering medications and caring for animals with special needs, both professionally and in my personal life. Whether your pet needs extra patience, medical support, or just lots of attention and affection, I’m confident providing compassionate care tailored to their individual needs. I’ve owned and cared for many different types of dogs over the years, from small breeds to large breeds, and I’m comfortable handling pets with varying energy levels and personalities. I also have experience caring for cats and understand the importance of respecting their unique routines and comfort levels. My goal is always to make pets feel happy, secure, and cared for while giving owners peace of mind knowing their animals are in experienced and loving hands. I treat every pet like family and would love the opportunity to care for yours! Im currently a stay at home mom so I have plenty of time to play with your pups. I have open availability most weekends and can stop by after 3PM on weekdays. I give my German shepherd walks every day and lots of play time to help relieve some of his energy. Depending on you pets needs I can accommodate them any way you see fit.

“Lilli and Zachary were wonderfully responsible care takers for our dog and home. Lilli is a prompt, kind, and excellent communicator. Our meet and greet went well, and I could immediately sense we could trust this nice young couple. They provided wonderful care for our 10 year old dog who had never been left alone before (we always had other dogs and in-home overnight care). Initially our dog was a bit shy, according to Lilli, but she ultimately warmed to them and they became fast friends. Lilli’s reports were detailed complete with pictures. I would highly recommend Lilli and Zachary!”

About: I’m different from other sitters because I go above and beyond for the families trusting me with their fur babies! I have 6 years of experience with taking care of homes and animals: I am a college student and part time nanny. I baby sit on Tuesdays & Thursdays 10-4 so those two days are unavailable unless you are okay with your pet waiting 6 hours to be let out. I make sure dogs are being let out every two hours. I will be sure to be changing water bowls and follow the owners feeding schedule. I’m pretty laid back so I love just cuddling with dogs and cats while watching tv or doing homework! I am honored to be trusted by families to take care of their homes and pets

“I was really nervous leaving my 9 month month old kitty and 18 year old cat at home for 5 days while i was gone, but Rachel was such a wonderful sitter, and provided me with wonderful photos and thoughtful, detailed updates while i was gone that really put my mind at ease knowing they were in such good hands. Rachel really went above and beyond to make sure my cats were well taken care of, played with and happy. She even brought a few toys and treats for them to play with! And my 18 year old cat needed a topical medicine in her ear each day, which Rachel applied to her no problem… meaning my cat really trusts her. I almost think my cats were a little disappointed to see me instead of Rachel opening the door when i got home yesterday haha! Thanks so much Rachel - we will absolutely be in touch the next time we need a sitter!! I highly recommend her :)”

About: From mastering basic commands with my own dog to sitting for family/friends, I know firsthand that no two pets are alike . I am dedicated to providing safe, enriching, and fun-loving care that gives pet parents complete peace of mind I am available weekdays in the afternoon and have all the time in the world for your little(s) one on weekends so book with me! I provide a safe and trustworthy environment by making sure I’m following all the clients dog/house rules and most importantly building a friendship with your dog!

About: I’ve been cat and dog sitting for over a decade. I specialize in larger breeds but love animals of all sizes! I have a senior stafforshire terrier and a three year old pit mix, so I am well versed in all ages. I only work four days a week so I’ll have plenty of time to hang with your pups! I have most mornings and evenings free for both walks and making sure they’re comfortable at home! I’ll care for your dog in your home so that they’re as comfortable as possible, and treat both your animals and your home with the utmost respect and care.

About: As an experienced and devoted pet sitter, I take great pride in the unique qualities that set me apart from other sitters. My passion for animals and dedication to their well-being drive me to go above and beyond in providing exceptional care for your furry companions. I prioritize open communication with pet owners, ensuring that they are kept informed about their pets' well-being during their absence. Regular updates, photos, and messages will be shared, so you can have peace of mind knowing your beloved pets are in safe hands. I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to focus on your pet’s care. I’m able to accommodate multiple walks throughout the day, including scenic strolls through my neighborhood forest preserve. Whether it’s potty breaks, exercise, or just extra outdoor time, I love making sure pets get the attention, movement, and fresh air they need. When caring for pets in the client's home, I am committed to maintaining the same level of attention and love they would receive in their owner's presence. I follow the pet's routine as closely as possible, adhering to their feeding schedules, exercise needs, and any other specific requirements provided by the owner. During walks, I ensure that dogs are safely harnessed and on-leash at all times, while also being attentive to their surroundings and any potential triggers or stressors. I use positive reinforcement techniques during walks to encourage good behavior and reinforce basic commands. I make it a priority to spend quality time with each pet, showering them with affection and engaging them in playtime to ensure they remain mentally stimulated and emotionally content. Communication with pet owners is vital, and I provide regular updates, including photos and messages, to keep them informed about their pets' well-being and any notable experiences during my care.

About: I absolutely adore being around animals. I started working in a vet and got a ton of great hands on experience. That means Ive seen it all. Dogs that are shy, hyper, scared, aggressive, happy, they come in all shapes and sizes. One thing I’ve noticed in dog care is they all need patience, and I’ve got a lot of that when it comes to those furry, tail wagging babies. Now, I’d like to take that experience into dog walking/sitting. I’ve grown up having 4 dogs at a time of all breeds ranging from Dochsund to a giant Doberman. I currently have a 5 year old pup named Darla, a Doberman puppy named Stella, and a little kitty named Ace. I look forward to giving your pet/pets lots of love and a healthy, active day while your away! I work from home. I will not be available all hours of the day, but daily drop in visits for a walk or weekend visits would fit just fine with my schedule. I like to enjoy outside or backyard play if accepted at your home. If there is not a fenced yard, we can enjoy the smells of the neighborhood on a nice walk!
