Pet Sitting Bourbonnais

“I cannot say enough great things about these ladies! So professional and made me feel so comfortable leaving Zora for the weekend. This was her first time being cared for by someone else & I was so nervous. But Leslie & Marisol really did fantastic with getting her to open up to them. Definitely will use again!!!”

“Jeff is great! Last time I booked with him had to change the battery in my garage door key pad to get in, and he was so kind about it! He’s always available, even last minute, such a life saver!”

About: I've helped take care of my fair share of family dogs throughout my childhood and have grown very fond of playing, caring, and overall taking care of the needs of dogs and a few senior dogs as well. I'm currently looking for any part time or Full-time pet sitting jobs available. (Ex: coming to a home periodically to walk feed and water dogs/pets, or longer term pet sitting where I stay at the owners home (overnight) to take care of pets everyday/night while owners are away for a few days/weeks.) Thanks to plenty of experience with my own pets and family pets I am very well prepared to take care of the average needs if cats, dogs, kittens/puppies, as well as senior animals/disabled pets that may need additional help and gentle care.

About: I’ve spent the past 6–7 years caring for animals through the Kankakee County Humane Foundation, where I’ve worked with dogs and cats of all different sizes, personalities, backgrounds, and comfort levels. I also currently care for boarding pets at VCA County West Animal Hospital and have been pet sitting for several years. I’m comfortable with everything from energetic, playful pups to shy, nervous, or more reserved pets. Being around such a wide variety of animals has taught me how important patience, body language, routine, and earning an animal’s trust truly are. I genuinely adore animals and treat every pet in my care like they’re one of my own. 🐾 I currently work in animal care, so my schedule is consistent and easy to plan around. I’m at the shelter Mondays and Fridays from 7:30 AM–5 PM. Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays I work split shifts at VCA from 7:30–11 AM and 4:30–7:30 PM, leaving me available for walks, drop-ins, and pet care during the middle of the day and later evenings. Saturdays I work 7:30–10 AM and 5–7:30 PM, with a large window available in between. I’m also generally available on Sundays and am happy to work with your pet’s routine whenever possible. As I grow my Rover clientele, I’d love to dedicate even more of my schedule to pet sitting and caring for your pets! 🐾 I live in a quiet, friendly neighborhood in Bradley with a fully fenced 4-foot chain-link yard. I have two dogs of my own who are incredibly sweet and friendly, but I understand that not every pet is comfortable around other animals. Introductions would always be done slowly and carefully, and I have a spare bedroom that can be set up as a cozy, quiet space for your pet if they need their own area to relax. Your pet’s safety and comfort will always come first. I’m happy to follow their normal feeding, potty, walking, crate, medication, and bedtime routines as closely as possible. Pets will be supervised while outside, and I’m comfortable keeping animals separated when needed based on personality or comfort level. Because of my years of shelter and animal-hospital experience, I’m used to reading body language, working with nervous or shy pets, and adjusting my approach to what makes each individual animal feel safe. My goal is for your pet to feel secure, comfortable, and cared for while they’re with me. 🐾

About: Pet adventure guide with a talent for river walks, snack negotiations, belly rubs, and earning the trust of even the sassiest cats. I only care for one “pack” at a time, so your pets get my undivided attention and personalized care—whether they’re boarding with me or just stopping by for the day 💜 After a career shift, I found myself with more flexibility in my schedule—and I decided to dedicate that time to doing something I LOVE 🐾 Safety First, Shenanigans Second! I adore every furry friend in my care and give each one the same love and attention I’d want for my own Lucy. I tailor my care to your pup’s unique personality and comfort level—whether they prefer extra cuddles, energetic playtime, or a little space to settle in. My yard is unfenced, so outdoor time is always supervised with a secure ground lead or long line in hand. I also have a room where pups can retreat whenever they need a little space of their own to relax and feel comfortable. I believe in building a trusting connection with every pet and truly value the companionship they bring. I know choosing a sitter can be difficult, so I strive to make the transition easier by helping your pup feel right at home.

About: With over 5 years of hands-on dog watching experience, I provide more than supervision I provide stability, attentiveness, and genuine care. Over the years, I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes, breeds, temperaments, and ages. From energetic puppies who need structured activity to senior dogs who thrive on a calm, predictable pace, I understand how important it is to adapt to each dog’s individual needs. What truly sets me apart is the balance I bring between structure and affection. Dogs feel most secure when their routine stays consistent, so I make it a priority to maintain their normal schedule as closely as possible. My daily routine typically includes on-time feedings, fresh water refresh, bathroom breaks, and exercise tailored to your dog’s energy level. Whether that means long walks, active play sessions, enrichment activities, or simply relaxed companionship, I adjust based on what your dog needs that day. Beyond the basics, I focus on mental stimulation and emotional well-being. I reinforce positive behaviors, engage in interactive play, and ensure your dog has both active time and calm downtime. I work overnight shifts during the week, and I dedicate my weekends fully to pet care. This allows me to provide focused, unrushed attention from Friday through Sunday. I intentionally keep my weekend availability open for pet sitting so I can give each pet consistent, quality care without overbooking. Weekend care includes structured routines with feedings, walks, playtime, enrichment, and calm companionship tailored to your pet’s needs. I make sure their schedule stays consistent and stress-free while you’re away. When caring for your pet in your home, my goal is to keep everything as normal and stress-free as possible. Pets are most comfortable in their own environment, so I prioritize maintaining their routine, respecting their space, and creating a calm, consistent presence while you’re away.

“Caitlin visited our cat Snoopy over the course of a week. She was always quick to answer any questions, took pictures on any visit, and did a wonderful job. We will definitely use her in the future and recommend you do the same!”

About: I’ve had dogs, bunnies, and other animals my whole life! I just graduated college, and am looking for a good way to spend my extra time right now:) I currently have a very open schedule, so there’s not much that wouldn’t fit into my routine right now. Pet care would be the perfect addition to my routine:) I have a lot of experience caring for pets in other peoples homes. I love taking dogs for walks, and playing with them especially when the weather is nice!

“Krista was great!! She came over exactly as scheduled to take our dogs out, feed them and give them some love while we were away for the day. She even came over before our booking to do a meet and greet which helped put our mind at ease leaving the dogs with someone new. They seemed to really love her and I was impressed with how knowledgeable and caring she was! We will absolutely use her again when the need arises ❤️❤️”

About: Dog mom of 7 years to a reactive Aussie and a 4yo Pomeranian. Trained both from puppies, as well as groom both at home due to reactivity issues. I am currently a SAHM so I’m available for walks, runs and drop by visits at all times during the week. Weekends are for soccer but we can set a schedule! I have a fenced yard for both my dogs with plenty of yard space for running around and playing. My dogs are also crate trained so we are willing to have overnight guests if needed without any worries.

About: I love to spend time with them , I like to play with them, I like to take them to the park. I will always keep them on a leash. I can teach them some tricks, sit , stay roll over. I can take them out every two hours, to go potty. I can keep them over night. I took care of a one eye cat, I took care of a blind dog. I have had dogs in diapers. I took care of a Yorkshire, who was pregnant, she went into labor at my house, and my mom and I delivered three little babies they came out every forty minutes. We help clean the babies, and my dog Chuckie helped to. Give them kisses, hugs.

“Luz was an excellent care taker for our baby boy! She was very detailed in her updates and sent plenty of pictures! Her knowledge of caring for dogs definitely came in handy since our boy suffers from a bit of anxiety. She was able to asses when he was a little nervous and give his medication when needed. Our corgi can very hyper and insistent, so he needs someone with a calming and centered personality to bring him some peace and that's definitely what Luz brings to her caring service. He enjoyed her undivided attention and walks. We 100% would book again and recommend her to anyone looking for someone to take care of their hyper but sweet dog 🐶 ❤️. Thank you Luz!”

About: Hi, I’m Mia! Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and I’ve been caring for pets for over 10 years through dog walking, pet sitting, and daily care. I truly believe every pet has their own unique personality, routine, and needs, and I take the time to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. I’m located in the South Suburbs of Chicago and proudly serve dogs of all ages, sizes, and energy levels. I’m comfortable caring for puppies, senior dogs, large breeds, and administering medications when needed. With a flexible schedule, I’m able to provide reliable walks, drop in visits, feeding, playtime, companionship, and personalized care based on your pet’s routine. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, learning new skills, or simply relaxing with company, I’m happy to tailor my care to what makes them happiest. Safety, patience, and communication are my top priorities. I follow all care instructions closely, keep pets active and engaged, and provide regular photo and video updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I treat every pet as if they were my own, and my goal is simple: to make sure your furry family member feels safe, comfortable, loved, and stress free in their own environment. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine since I have a flexible schedule. This allows me to plan my day around walks, drop in visits, feeding times, and playtime so each pet receives consistent attention and care throughout the day or week. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely to maintain their normal routine. This includes feeding schedules, walks, medication if needed, cleaning up after pets, refreshing water, and keeping their environment safe, clean, and comfortable. I also make sure doors and leashes are secured and I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior to ensure they are safe and relaxed while their owner is away.

“Janette was amazing, 10/10 recommend her! She accepted my last minute booking on a very busy weekend, communicating quickly and kindly to coordinate the drop-in. She did an amazing job of communicating before, during, & after the drop-in even when I wasn't able to promptly answer her. Janette even went above & beyond - going out on a limb to greet my very scared cats with treats!”
