Trina is such a lifesaver. We had a dog sitter lined up who had to bail on us about 12 hrs before we were supposed to leave on our first ever Disney vacation. She responded to my message immediately, was available on short notice and honestly spoiled the heck out of my dog! My dog is a senior citizen and takes 2-4 meds a day. She made sure he got all his meds, followed an intricate feeding schedule, and loved him as her own. She checked in with me daily to assure us he was doing well. She also helped feed our fish and turtle. What a lifesaver! We returned to happy animals and a very clean house. We will definitely be using Trina for all our vacations from here on out!

Faith was our first Rover sitter and will be our go to from here on out. She spent a week with our older dogs who require a lot of patience and care. She met their every need and then some. She goes above and beyond in every way. We received updates and pictures throughout her stay. She left the house clean and even left a wonderful letter and treats. Thank you, Faith, for all you did for our fluffy babies.

I highly recommend Josh to stay with your pet! He stayed with my dog Diesel over this past weekend at my house. When I returned home Diesel was very happy and my home was in perfect shape. While I was away Josh sent several pictures of them taking walks together and playing together. They had lots of fun and Josh really focused on Diesel. I will definitely book him again when I need to be out of town.

About: Hi, I’m Christine! I’ve been a devoted pet parent for over 30 years, and my love for animals is truly at the heart of everything I do. From playful pups to curious cats and every animal in between, I believe each furry (or feathery!) friend deserves love, care, and a whole lot of fun. I currently have an 8 year old Plott Hound who is recovering from her second TPLO surgery. I spend devoted time with her every day completing her physical therapy exercises and doing all I can to optimize her recovery and golden years ahead. She has been a major part of my life and we have had lots of adventures together! She has road-tripped with me to 21 different states and lived for 6 years in the high desert mountains of AZ. I pride myself on being patient, flexible, and truly attentive to every animal’s individual needs. Whether it’s a leisurely stroll or a playful adventure, I can’t wait to be a part of your pet’s journey! I am a certified wellness instructor and make my own client schedule- so- I have lots of flexibility and can work with most client’s individual needs. I am flexible and adaptive to each individual pet’s needs and environment. I love walking and am happy to give extra time to take in the sniffs- or enjoy a snuggle!

What an absolute gem!!! I have 2 Belgian Malinois, a can and fish. Tanya was such a amazing sitter. Our older mal he can be an anxious fella and can sometimes intimidate people but not Tanya! She was a dog whisperer. She stayed overnight for 3 nights and not only helped with keeping my critters safe but also the home. She treated my home like her home and with respect. I couldn't have asked for a better sitter. TRUST HER WITH YOUR FAMILY. My pets mean the world to me and they trusted and loved her from the moment they met. She was consistent with providing updated and pictures. Already a loyal client to her with only just 1 booking. 10000/10 rating. Coming from an anxious mom I highly reccomend.

Elizabeth did a great job watching my dogs while I was away. She handled two pretty demanding dogs with ease and communicated proactively throughout to ensure all my concerns were addressed. I can tell my dogs had a great time with her and would highly recommend her to anyone.

Sydney is awesome. She loves our dogs…and our dogs love her. She gave them all the attention and play time they could handle and were kept on a schedule that they were used to. She is awesome and our boys can’t wait to have her pup sit them again!

About: Hi! I’ve cared for pets for years through feeding, walking, playtime, and providing companionship. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I strive to make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. I currently work part-time, which allows me to maintain a flexible schedule and dedicate quality time to the pets in my care. I strive to provide reliable, attentive care through walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of companionship. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a secure, fenced yard where dogs can play and exercise safely. I also have young children in the home who have been taught to be gentle and respectful around animals, helping create a loving, family-friendly environment for pets in my care.

Our original sitter canceled the day before our trip, and we were so relieved that Brittany was available last minute. She arranged a meet and greet the same day we reached out and started the booking the very next day. She took amazing care of our two dogs and two cats while we were away for three days and sent regular updates. We’re so grateful and will definitely book with her again!

About: Hi! I’m a full-time stay-at-home animal lover with open availability, so your pet will always get my full attention 💕 I’ve grown up with animals, previously studied veterinary medicine, and volunteered at animal clinics, so I understand both the fun and the responsibility that comes with pet care. I have a busy, loving home with 3 kids, 2 dogs, and a bearded dragon, so your pet will fit right in! There’s always plenty of playtime, cuddles, and attention especially in the evenings when my kids love joining in 🐕✨ Whether I’m in your home or mine, I follow routines closely and treat every pet like family. You can count on your fur baby being safe, happy, and well cared for every step of the way 🥰 Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily life because I’m home full-time and already have a structured routine around caring for my own pets. From morning feedings and walks to playtime and evening wind-downs, taking care of animals is already a big part of my day not something extra I have to “fit in.” Adding your pet into my routine means they’ll naturally receive consistent attention, structure, and love as part of our everyday life. 🐾💕 I care for every pet based on their individual needs, routine, and personality. In my home, pets become part of the family right away they get plenty of attention, playtime, and a safe, clean environment. Since I’m home full-time, I’m able to keep a close eye on them, stick to feeding schedules, provide regular potty breaks, and make sure they’re comfortable and happy throughout the day. I also have a very active household with kids and pets, so there’s always engagement, exercise, and lots of love while still making sure your pet has space to relax if they need quiet time. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make it a priority to follow their usual routine as closely as possible. I ask detailed questions about feeding, walks, behavior, and preferences so your pet feels safe and stress-free in their own space. I also keep the home tidy and provide updates so you feel at ease while you’re away. No matter where I’m caring for your pet, my goal is always the same: to make sure they feel safe, loved, and as comfortable as they would with you. 🐾💕

About: I have over 20 years of caring for animals of all kinds. I am very personal, caring, and will treat your animal with the love they deserve. I have a full time job Monday-Friday. I can walk your dog in the morning and play with them until I leave for work. After work we can play and enjoy what new outside adventures have in store! I have the ability to come to your home if that’s your preference. I am very schedule friendly. I have a big common area and a large park with a dog area. I’m close to a walking path or can just stay in home and play. I am very responsible and have over 20 years of experience. I have two daughters 11,8 that could help as well. They love animals.

About: My family used to own 7 dogs when I was a preteen! 6 were chihuahuas and one was a pit bull, so I feel comfortable with any dog size. I would feed, walk, wash, and play with them. Now, I help my friends with their dogs whenever it’s needed. I know when they need space and when they want to be playful. I have a lots of energy, so I can ply with your pup for a long time! I’m a full-time student and work part-time for two days a week, but it only takes up in the morning. On any day of the week, I am available at any time after 4pm, and before 11am except on Tuesdays, Fridays, and Sundays. I’m always observing, partially because of admiration, but also watching out for any signs of discomfort. I can recognize when they need space, are uncomfortable, anxious, or threatened. I’m cautious when it comes to interactions while walking and will walk across the other side of the street from another dog for precaution.

About: I am a firm believer that our pets are our family, and each individual pet deserves individual care, respect and love! I am meticulous with details and ensure that a beloved pet’s routine is kept as consistent as possible under my care. I’ve owned cats since I was 8yrs old, and also had hermit crabs, Leopard geckos, and tarantulas. My family never had space for a dog, so I walked and played with my neighbors dogs while growing up. Once I reached my 20s, I’ve volunteered for years at no-kill shelters back in TN, trained on how to clean, socialize and care for dogs. I have just moved to Northern Illinois and wasn’t able to transfer my job up here. So I want to make my job caring for your family! I am available Saturday - Wednesday. I am very detail oriented and respect every pet owner’s instructions and wishes to the letter. Pets deserve consistency with their established routines! In the absence of instructions or an emergency, I have years of hands-on pet care to fall back on and use reliable judgement so your pet will always receive the best care possible.

Ariana was THE BEST!! I was so nervous leaving my three seniors for the first time, but on initial meet with Ariana I knew I didn’t have a thing to worry about. She kept me updated throughout and sent lots of pics. I had no expectations of any housesitting tasks/cleaning but she went above and beyond having my home tidy. Can’t say it enough, she’s the best !!!
