Cat Sitting in Carpentersville

“Jaimie was wonderful taking care of our cat and the house while we were out of town. She contacted us daily to let us know that everything was ok. She was thorough in asking questions to help care for our cat. She’s very reliable and we had a good piece of mind that things were taken care of. We will definitely use her again!”

“Madeline has always been great checking in our cats. She very reliable and always responds quickly. The visit summaries were thorough and she would try to get pictures even when they were hiding. We're going to miss having her around when we move out of the area!”

“Dorothy was outstanding coming to our house to feed and let out our 2 dogs. She was great with the dogs, responds quickly to questions and sent many photos while we traveled out of state for a wedding. We trusted her and did not worry about our dogs. I would highly recommend her services.”

About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life. Currently live with 2 dogs and 2 cats, and my family has 3 other dogs! I’ve dog-sat for many years, both staying at homes and frequently checking in. I have a natural way of connecting with animals, and I love spending time with them! During the summer, I will have availability to walk dogs, let dogs out, and care for pets during the day and evenings on weekdays. June weekdays I am available after 12, and July weekdays I am available all day. Weekend availability is not consistent throughout the summer. I live with two dogs and two cats. I walk the dogs frequently, feed them breakfast and dinner, and keep their spaces clean and safe! I monitor pets as they chew on toys, and throw away toys that could be dangerous. Managing 4 pets is a handful, but I love it!

“I appreciate Katelynn's flexibility with agreeing to take on my request last minute. She always sent plenty of check in pictures, and it was obvious that all three of the pets were being kept happy in our family's absence. Would book her again.”

About: Been dog sitting for five years for daytime and overnight care. Available for walking, playtime, or just companionship for any size dog who needs some love 💗 I do currently have a part-time job Monday through Friday but am looking to walk dogs in the mornings and weekdays except on Wednesdays and can sit and do visits anytime on the weekends. I live in a very walkable and dog friendly area where your pets will always get the attention and time they need from me while also being safe and accepted.

“great communication!! will definitely reach out again when i need help with my pets!”

About: Hi! I grew up on a farm, so I’ve spent my whole life around animals of all sizes and personalities. Dogs have always had a special place in my heart. My husband and I have had Labrador Retrievers throughout our entire marriage—they truly are part of our family! Because of that, I understand how important it is to find someone who will care for your pet with the same love and attention you give them. When your dog is with me, they’ll get plenty of good walks, belly rubs, and (of course) any treats or snacks you provide. I’ll also send regular photo updates and notes so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. In my professional life, I’m a teacher with 25 years of experience. My schedule gives me some flexibility and allows me to spend time with furry friends when I’m not in the classroom. If you choose me to care for your pet, you can feel confident knowing that a responsible, experienced, and caring person will be looking after them. Feel free to reach out anytime—I’d love to set up a meet-and-greet and get to know you and your pup! I am a teacher- so currently my hours are evenings and weekends- but starting the week after Memorial Day I am off for the summer, so I am available all day! I’ve spent my whole life around animals and have owned Labrador Retrievers for many years, so caring for dogs is second nature to me. Your dog will get regular walks, playtime, and plenty of attention while I keep their routine as close to normal as possible. I’ll also send photo updates and notes so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for. Feel free to reach out anytime—I’d love to set up a meet-and-greet!

About: I started and successfully managed my own dog walking business at the age of 15, serving clients throughout my local neighborhood. Over time, I built a loyal client base of more than 20 regular customers and provided a range of services, including dog walking, drop-in visits, and occasional bathing. This experience helped me develop strong time management skills, reliability, and a deep understanding of pet care. I currently have full availability and am eager to meet new dogs while continuing to provide dependable, high-quality care. As a welcome offer, new clients will receive $20 off their first booking with me. I am also happy to assist with basic dog training upon request, reinforcing positive behaviors during visits. While I do not have a yard available, I focus on providing attentive, active care through structured walks and drop-in visits to ensure each dog receives proper exercise, stimulation, and attention. In addition to dogs, I have hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of reptiles and exotic pets. I understand their unique environmental needs, including maintaining proper temperature gradients, humidity levels, and lighting. I have worked with species such as snakes, lizards, and other small exotics, ensuring their enclosures are clean, safe, and enriching. I am also knowledgeable about specialized diets, including live feeding, supplementation, and species-specific nutrition. I carefully monitor animal behavior and can recognize early signs of stress or illness. My approach emphasizes patience, consistency, and minimizing stress during handling and daily care routines. I am comfortable following detailed instructions and adapting to each pet’s individual personality and needs. Overall, I am committed to providing attentive, responsible, and knowledgeable care for all animals. I currently have unlimited availability and am here to meet all the new pups and help deliver exceptional service and dog training services if requested by owner. Upon arrival at a client’s home, if a backyard is available, I conduct a thorough perimeter check to ensure there are no gaps in the fence and that all gates are securely closed before allowing dogs outside. I follow each pet’s established feeding schedule and ensure fresh water is provided and replenished regularly. For overnight stays, I provide attentive in-home care to maintain your pet’s routine and comfort. If a walk requested during the booking exceeds 15 minutes an additional booking fee will apply for walks ranging from 30 to 60 minutes.  If your pet requires medication, please inform me in advance so I can ensure it is administered safely and according to your instructions.

About: I was a dog sitter for the same dog for 4 years. He was my neighbors dog and is a beautiful golden lab. I would take him for daily walks when my neighbors were working or on vacation. I would feed him his three daily meals and we would play fetch in the backyard. When his owners were on vacation I would stay at their house with him and his cat brother. I would love nights with them being curled up on the couch together. I’m currently a full-time student and part-time Patient Care Technician at a hospital. I have a lot of free time on my hands (surprisingly) and I love animals so why not spend my spare time taking care of others pets! I take online classes so I’m available throughout the day. With my job I only work two days a week overnight, so finding time should be easy to take care of your fur baby. Depending on if you need cat or dog services or both-I’m open to however you would like me to cater to your pets needs. I will keep up with their scheduled feeding times, walks/potty times, brushing their fur, and of course all the cuddles and pets in the world!

“Thank you so much! ❤️”

About: I have felt a calling towards dogs for quite some time now. I have a few dog friends, and feel a very deep, genuine, and pure connection with them. I hope that it's the same with your beloved furry friend, and I'm confident that it will be. Please allow me to respond to your booking request before sending your request to multiple parties.. This is appreciated! My schedule really is pretty packed right now, but mid-afternoons are pretty open most days.. I will take new clients if I am able to find a time slot for you, though! For now, I'd like to keep care either in your home, or outdoors. I will treat your home like it is my own. Thank you!

“Audrey went above and beyond for my three babies while I was away this weekend. She is so sweet and gentle with my animals and followed all instructions perfectly. Took great pictures and spent extra time with them if she was able to. Super flexible hours and days as well. I’ll hire her any time I need a sitter in the future. Thanks so much, Aubrey!”

About: I have always had pets for as long as I can remember. I have raised puppies & kittens, fostered and loved on seniors of all kinds. Some pets include dogs, cats, rabbits, gerbils, guinee pigs, turtles, snakes and geckos. I teach full time from 7:30am to 3:00pm I am available to love on your four (mostly) legged babies in the afternoons, evenings, my days off, holidays and weekends. If there was a need to care for pets in my home I would have a separate space for your fur babies to rest comfortably.
