House Sitting Bartlett

“Kendall really took great care of our 3 pets(1dog & cats). We had gone out for 5days, she stayed at our home and took amazing care of our pets. She even took the garbage out without us mentioning it on the garbage day. I would highly recommend her without any doubt and will definitely contact her for our future petsitting needs.”

“Skyler was wonderful! She was here for our Poppy girl every night and kept as close to her routine as possible. We will definitely be reaching out to Skyler again for future stays!”

“Lauriel took such great care of our girl Tilli and our boy Chester. We are really looking forward to having more time away and knowing that our fur kids are in such loving hands”

“This was the first time that I had Isaac watch my dogs. I had him house/dog sit for me. I originally chose him because of his professionalism in our texting discussions and his promptness with returning messages. We had an initial meet and greet, which he was on time for, and the dogs seemed to like him right away. While I was gone, Isaac sent pictures and updates of how things were going. When I got home, I was amazed at how clean my house was. Typically when I get home from a trip there is dog fur everywhere because my dogs shed very badly. I usually tell my dog sitters where the vacuum is in case the hair starts to bother them, but I do not expect them to vacuum the house for me. However, I never mentioned any of this to Isaac, he just took it upon himself to vacuum the house. The blankets were folded nicely on the dog beds, and on the couch. He even got my mail out of the mailbox and left it sitting for me in the house. These were all extra things that I never asked of him, he just took the initiative to do these things on his own. It was nice coming home to a house I didn’t have to immediately vacuum! I can’t say enough good things about Isaac, I will definitely check with him first when I have to leave town again!”

About: My love for animals hasn’t changed since I was a kid. I have babysat for several family members, staying at their houses, housing their pets for months and visiting them. I am attentive to their needs, if they need extra attention for house training or have separation anxiety, I intend to help them through it. I will never do something the pets don’t trust and I can follow any request from the owners, if there is something special. I work part-time and going to school, so my schedule is a bit everywhere. However, I keep Tuesdays open all day and can open days up if I’m capable! I will try my best to make time for those who need loving. I am very attentive to my clients pets in their home. I like to go where they feel most comfortable, adhere to the routine they are use to and keep everything safely away. I double check any entrance before leaving, ensure nothing is left on the floor or in rooms for the pets to grab and check the food/ water bowls for proper amounts.

About: While living in Beijing, China, my wife and I raised two Mini Schnauzers from pups to become loving and loyal members of our family unit. This included regularly scheduled walks to accommodate our working hours and took into consideration the dogs' needs. One of the dogs developed diabetes and required insulin shots with the morning and evening meals. Both dogs received a great deal of attention beyond just the walking. This included regular at-home 'fun times' with toys, including hide-and-seek. Weather-appropriate trips to the park were taken whenever time allowed. Both TJ and Toby were treated as well as children, concerning the attention they received and the healthy snacks that we provided at the dinner table. At present, my work schedule is very flexible with a remote occupation. Working remotely leaves a great deal of opportunities to be available on a regular basis. I am normally up rather early (by 6 am) for a morning workout out and the rest of the day I am working on various certifications and work requirements that are scheduled depending on my goals for that particular day. At present, I am more interested in coming to your home to dog sit or walk/play with your dog as opposed to dog sitting at my residence. I would follow directions carefully with the duration of walks and the route of walks. Any type of behavior recommendations (e.g., keep the dog away from other people or other dogs) would be strictly followed. All dietary instructions would be strictly followed. Most of all, the pet will be treated with compassion, patience, respect, and understanding.

“Valerie was great on her first visit. She was very attentive to my nervous pup who wasn’t nervous at all with her. My time away was so enjoyable because of her. Will be rebooking over and over. Thank you!”

“Mya was great with the puppy. She provided updates throughout the day to let me know how the puppy was doing. Would love to have her back to watch over the puppy.”

“Fantastic job with our cat— took the time to play and spend time with him. Our cat got more comfortable more quickly than he does with most sitters. During our meet and greet, you could tell he loves animals. Would book again 100%.”

About: I have had dogs in my life since I a newborn and have been caring for them since I was around 5 years old! Around the time I turned 15, I began dog watching for neighbors and family friends so I have about 6 years of paid experience. I have an abundance of expertise with big dogs as all 7 dogs I’ve been lucky enough to have grown up with have been over 60 lbs with the biggest pup weighing about 110 lbs. I also have several years of experience with senior pups including my oldest pup Walter 😊 He has arthritis and has had several tumors so I am familiar with administering oral and topical medications if needed as well as post-surgery care. Please do not hesitate to reach out with any questions regarding my experience that I can clarify for you! I am a community college student with reliable transportation (if planned) and am available several hours through out the week. I am open to short-notice walks, check ins, and dog-sitting inquiries but please understand I may not always be available to fulfill your request due to me sharing a car with my parent. If you book with me 24 hours prior and I am available there should be no transportation issues. My availability is as follows: Mondays: please reach out for more info Tuesdays & Wednesdays: 9:30 am - 3:00 pm, 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm Thursdays: 12:30 pm - 3:00 pm, 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm Friday/Saturday/Sunday: Any time While I do not offer boarding services because of my senior, I do offer dog-sitting, walks, and check-in services. I promise to love your pup like they are my own! With my own dogs I tend to sit on the floor next to them more than on furniture because I like that they think I am at their level when I do that! I will talk to your pup/pups like they can understand me and are responding which might be weird for some but if you get it you get it 🤗 Also unless otherwise stated by dog mom/dad I always bring a couple treats for puppy to try! As with anything else you have questions about please do not hesitate to reach out!

“Lexi was great! She was excellent with Baba, responsible and responsive.”

About: Animals gravitate toward me and it's made me very familiar with their temperament and upkeep. I can understand them pretty well despite the language barrier and I love spending time with them regardless of whatever nightmares they conjure for me to clean. I am a part time caretaker so that leaves me with flexible hours. I can also be available on short notice. And who wouldn't want to spend their free time with pets? I make sure the home is in order when I arrive and before I leave. I do a final walk through before leaving the home to confirm it is secure.

“We are so glad we booked Bonnie! It was so nice to be able to not worry about our pets and house while we were out of the country. She went above and beyond to care for our pets and sent us the sweetest updates. Thank you so much!”

Savanah G.

“Morgan watched our elderly cat Bear in our home while we traveled. She did a great job with Bears daily syringe medication and took great care of our house while we were gone - it was very clean when we came back. She is a great pet sitter and we’d love to have her back again.”

I care for the pets of friends and relatives on a regular basis. I work remotely part-time, and have a very flexible work and personal schedule. I'm an easy going person, and i'm familiar with most of the parks in central Kane County.

“Sibley was amazing with Francis and Appa. We were away for a long weekend. Sibley sent us pictures and texts a couple of times each day. Francis was in Sibley’s lap the first night😊”
