House Sitting in Channahon

“Sarah is fantastic! We got so many photos and our pups were healthy and happy when we came home. She also picked up around the house so we came home to a cleaner house than we left! Will definitely hire her again for future needs.”

“Rachael was honestly THE BEST pet sitter ever!!! She routinely provided updates with pictures of the pups multiple times a day, which truly put my heart at ease and made us so happy, as we miss our pups when we're gone from them! Not only were out pups taken care of, played with, and loved on like they were her own, but she even left the house clean as well! We are SO happy to have found Rachael!!!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and currently have three large dogs, so I’m comfortable caring for pets of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I have experience helping raise and train puppies, including one who recently turned one year old, and I’m comfortable with everything from feeding schedules and administering medications to walks, playtime, treats, and cleaning up after pets. As a student-athlete home for the summer, I’d love to spend my extra time caring for animals and giving them the attention they deserve. My love for pets started at a young age—I even ran a homemade dog treat business to help earn money for my first two puppies! Since then, I’ve always enjoyed spending time with animals and treating them like family. Pet care fits very naturally into my weekly routine. I currently work part-time, which gives me flexibility throughout the day to provide walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, medication administration, and companionship. As a student-athlete, I’m used to managing a busy schedule and staying organized, so I always make sure pets receive reliable and consistent care. Between work shifts and practices, I have plenty of availability to give pets the attention, exercise, and love they deserve. I believe pets are most comfortable in their own environment, so I focus on providing care in my clients’ homes. I follow each pet’s normal routine, including feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and lots of love and attention. My goal is to keep pets happy, comfortable, and stress-free while their owners are away. I do not offer boarding in my home, but I’m happy to provide drop-in visits, walks, and in-home care tailored to your pet’s needs.

“All of the dogs seemed to do well and be happy while we were away. Andie was good at communicating and keeping me up to date on how they were”

“This was the first tine Jennifer stayed with Kale'a. Kale'a is a slow moving 12 year old Lab - Jennifer walked her several tines a day, gave Kale'a her medications and lots of love. In addition, my house was also well-caref for. I can't express how happy both Kale'a and I were to have found Jennifer!”

“We had Sammy stay with our 3 Goldens. They loved having her here. We will definitely book with her again. Thank you.”

About: I've had the pleasure of caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and ages, and I love getting to know what makes each one special. Whether your dog is energetic and adventurous or prefers a slower pace, I'll make sure they receive attentive care, plenty of affection, and a safe, comfortable experience while you're away. Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine. As a cat owner and experienced pet sitter, I'm used to planning my schedule around feeding times, walks, playtime, medication schedules when needed, and plenty of attention. I enjoy spending time with animals and make it a priority to provide consistent, reliable care that helps pets feel comfortable and loved while their owners are away. I believe pets are happiest when their normal routine is maintained, so I take the time to learn each pet's schedule, preferences, and needs. In a client's home, I provide attentive care that includes feeding, fresh water, walks or playtime, litter box or potty breaks, medication administration if needed, and plenty of affection. I treat every home with respect and keep owners updated with photos and messages so they can feel confident their pets are in good hands.

“Holly is so great!! She responds quickly, is reliable, responsible and on time. She left my house immaculate and really bonded with my cat (who hates people) and my dog. Highly recommend!! 💫”

About: Ive grown up with pets my whole life from puppies to seniors. This makes me versatile in taking care of any pet age, even training. I love any and all breeds of dogs with no preference. I also have had multiple dogs at the same time my whole life so caring for multiple pets at a time is no problem. I am currently home from college for the summer so my schedule is almost always open. I work at a restaurant in Plainfield a few nights a week for a couple hours otherwise I’m always available for your fur babies. I am very flexible in your personal rules of watching your pet. Crating, walking, or even supervised outside time are all things I respect along with anything else you specifically need for your pet. I have also had large and small dogs. I would love for your pet to stay in routine so I will try to follow that as closely as possible

About: Longtime pet owner and animal lover here! Nice to meet you :) From one pet owner to another, I know the anxiety that comes with leaving your pet while you are on a trip. That is why I feel so passionate about easing those worries and taking the best care of others pets for them. It is so special to be able to spend time with your fur babies, and to assure you that they will be taken care of so you don’t have any worries! It is my mission to take care of your pets as if they are my own. I always make sure to include lots of play and cuddle time. I include daily walks as well. I especially love to play games with them to tire out those active brains and make things more fun! Hide the treat is a favorite. I am currently in school part time. 3 days out of the week I am gone for about 5 hours. Every other day I would be there most of the day, and never gone for more than a couple hours. During drop in visits I always make sure to spend a few hours with the animals. Playing with them, taking them for walks, and of course giving them all the pets and loving. I know how hard it must be to be away from their family so I make sure that they have the best time while you are away and do not spend too much time alone. Whatever safety measures you require in your home I can make sure to accommodate! I can crate your dog if needed. And I always make sure walks are safe.

About: I’ve overnight babysat puppies and dogs and have fostered cats and kittens with the lovely organization Anticruelty. I’m currently taking care of my three fur babies. I’ve personally trained my dog Koda basic and more advanced commands, (sit, stay, paw, bow, speak, wait, high five, to potty on a potty pad and outside, etc.) I’m on the road to success with my other dog Zulu. He has achieved commands like sit, stay, roll over, paw, down, being potty trained, etc. Additionally, I’ve worked with my cat Darla on not getting on countertops, no curtain climbing, no couch scratching and being gentle with humans around her! I currently work a part time job as a swim instructor as well as attending school as a senior. Weekends work best for me but weekdays are doable! If you’re willing to work with what i’ve got, i’m willing to work with you and compromise! I strongly believe in respect and security. No matter what, I will treat you and your fur baby with the respect that I would want my own to be treated with. I would never purposely violate the privacy you’ve entrusted me with. Besides that, I have a fenced in yard and two very social dogs to keep your fur baby company!

About: I have a lot of experience with dogs as both an owner and as a foster home/parent. I recently had a foster dog that was used as a breeding Mom dog for 4 years and was terrified when we got her. I have pet sat at my home for family, friends, and neighbor's dogs. I would go multiple times a week to my neighbor's house to take her dogs out and play with them while Mom & Dad were working late. I have also volunteered with humane societies over the years, even flew down to FL to volunteer with a rescue after a hurricane. I have experience transporting foster dogs to their new homes with a rescue group out of Missouri where we adopted our foster fail from. I am an Independent Photographer so I only work when I have sessions or editing to do, leaving me with lots of time to dedicate to the pups 😀 The dogs wellbeing is my top concern always! If I am coming to walk or play with your dog while you're at work I will make sure your family member is happy and content before leaving.

“Kayla was a wonderful sitter - very communicative, really thoughtful, and was the sweetest with our pup. Highly recommend!”

About: I have taken care of dogs and all kinds of pets since I was a child, for friends and family! I have experience with many different breeds of dogs ranging in different sizes as well as many different ages. I currently am only pet sitting/dog walking so I have plenty of time for drop-ins and dogs walk to keep your pets happy and healthy. I have a fenced in yard with lots of room to play your pets, as for in your own home I can play fetch in back yards as well as take your dogs on walks!

“Alison was great to work with. We appreciated her flexibility with our schedule, was very responsive and sent pics of our fur baby. Everything was neat and in order when we got back home and Keke looked very happy. We will definitely use Alison for future bookings.”

About: Dogs give us their love, loyalty, and undivided attention. So why shouldn’t we. Nothing would bring me more joy then to help make sure that happens! I have had dogs around me all my life I have taken care of or owned dogs of different sizes and ages. I follow instructions well and take into account tips I’m given on what each dog prefers. I would not mind Using some time I have with your pet(s) working on tricks or training that you think they might need practice on. My overall Goal is for you and your pet(s) to know that I can be trusted and they are safe and being loved When you’re not around to do so! Hope to make your pets day!

“We can’t thank Ally enough for watching our sweet boy. Our dog had an upset stomach over the weekend & Ally went above and beyond to help clean up an accident he had. She was very communicative & thoughtful!”

About: My passion for dogs has been with me since a very young age. As a child, my dream was to be a vet because of my passion and love for animals. I have 20 years of service, and my approach to caring for my dogs at home has always been holistic and natural. I've reversed my dog's diagnosed disease naturally and have saved his life naturally when vets have told me to put my dog to sleep. I'm thorough with my dogs’ routine, medication, diet, and cleaning eating. That makes me highly prepared for the dogs I tend to. Fun fact: My family and I own 17 pets! Usually, when everyone goes on a family trip, I'm the caregiver for all our pets at once. Hopefully, the background I give of my experience gives you peace in choosing me to watch your babies 🐩🐶🐕 I do freelance work; it's my main source of income. Therefore, it’s easy to create my own schedule and very flexible days and hours. It will be easier for you to book with me as I strive to work with your schedule and needs effortlessly Personally, with my own dog, I'm highly attentive. Even though we have a backyard, I strongly believe in always being present and attentive when taking your dog out to potty. Even in your own backyard! Anytime they are outside, I will be present. I also think it’s important to interact and be present regularly with them; they need attention and love, too. I make sure to spend time with my dog when I come home and make time to play, cuddle, and show him affection . Also, it's important for me to take him out of the house. Even if it's a short walk, cruising in the car to pick up errands or food. It's important for them to explore and experience different environments.
