1. Giada W.

“Giada went above and beyond our expectations. She came out after a horrific weather event here last week in Palatine. She even sent us pics and updates of the storm damage done to our property too as well as telling us our kitty was safe!”


2. Leora R.

“Leora took such good care of my cat. He was on the mend from illness when I had to go on a work trip. My mind was at ease knowing he was in Leora’s hands. She went above and beyond.”


3. Erica G.

“Erica was amazing with our kitties. She was a huge help and helped by adding extra visits since I biffed on the scheduling. We didn’t have to cut our trip short. I will always book her moving forward.”


4. Anthony P.

“Anthony cared wonderfully for our cat!!!”


5. Brianna L.


“Brianna was the BEST cat sitter I’ve ever had! She cared so much for my cat Panther and it showed through the pictures she sent. He opened up so much to her, he loved playing with her and laying on her lap. I could tell Panther really loved spending time with her. Panther and I say thank you so much Brianna! 😊🐈⬛”


6. Jason K.

“Jason took wonderful care of my cats while I was away! He kept in contact, took great pictures, and left the house just the way he found it (if not cleaner!). I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”


7. Abigail D.

“Abby did a great job! My cats are quite picky with their people but they took to her straight away. She sent photos and videos every day, played with them, and followed care instructions to a T. I will definitely book with her for my future vacations. 5 stars! ☺️”


8. Emily S.

“Emily was great! We were out of town for a few days and so glad we had Emily check in on her. She gave our fur baby lots of love and attention which she needed since she was alone for a bit”


9. Jessica M.


“Jessica is absolutely the best! She showered our cat with so much love and attention while we were away for a few days. She sent pictures from each visit and the last 2 days she had him on her lap. I’m so jealous! 😁 We highly recommend Jessica!!!”


10. Jennifer M.

“Jen was great! She took very good care of my three cats when I was gone, fed and changed litter, played with them and gave mentally updates so I didn’t have to worry. She even took care of my fish in tank as an extra bonus! She is very personable and friendly and conscientious, and I would highly recommend her husband f you are looking for a good pet sitter!”




11. Maria W.

“Maria is friendly, great on communication, and obviously cares for animals. We've used Maria a few times and our three cats, who are shy, have been warming up to her. On our trips we've felt much better about leaving our cats behind with Maria checking in on them and providing updates. Thanks Maria!!”


12. Anna K.

“Anna was absolutely fantastic! She checked in on our cat Teddy everyday while we were out of town. She sent the best pictures and was really good at communicating. He is a typical sassy kitty and she was very patient and sweet to him. We will definitely be using her services again!”


13. Yamile C.
“Yamile is an amazing, kind and caring person. I can’t recommend her enough! Yamile absolutely has the magic touch when it comes to pets. She is very gentle and cares for all pets like if they were own. She very comfortable with all pets. Yamile clearly loves all animals and understands all their quirky ways and you couldn’t be leaving your pets in better hands!”


14. Daniel D.

“Daniel was great with our cat, Alaska! He visited her six times while we were out of town and was so sweet and patient with her. He kept us updated after every visit, which made us feel really at ease while we were away. Would definitely recommend him and will absolutely book with him again!”


15. Emily T.

“My cat was happy when I arrived home and it was because of the affection and enrichment Emily provided. She cares for others four-legged members of families as if they’re part of her’s. I’d highly recommend to anyone as a cat sitter!”


16. Serafina P.

17. Chantelle M.
“I’ve had the pleasure of trusting Chantelle Marsh with the care of my pet, and I couldn’t be more grateful. Chantelle is not only incredibly professional but also deeply caring—her love for animals truly shines through in everything she does. She provides the best service with attention to detail and genuine compassion. It’s rare to find someone who treats your pet like their own, and Chantelle does just that. Highly recommended!”
