House Sitting Chatham

“This is the second time I’ve asked Shakira to watch my Doberman, Laila and could not be more pleased. My dog can be super energetic and Shakira does a great job with her. I’ve even received compliments from my neighbors of how good she is when I’m away. Shakira is very responsive , detail oriented and sends daily updates and photos. HIGHLY recommend!”

“Jayden always does such a phenomenal job with my senior cat. My kitty is rather incontinent and very old, so naturally it is difficult to leave her with many people, but Jayden always treats her so well. They always ask specifically what my cat needs, keep me well updated, and my house cleaner than I left it. I never feel like I'm bothering them when I text and ask for updates. They really understand how hard it can be to leave your pet and that makes it so much easier to relax on vacation. Jayden is the only pet sitter we will use!!”

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up surrounded by dogs of all sizes and breeds, from a beloved Cocker Spaniel to two Giant Schnauzers and later a Pit Bull. Each one helped shape my love and understanding of animals and taught me how unique every pet’s personality can be. Today, I’m the proud owner of a French Bulldog who keeps me on my toes and a pet snake, giving me experience caring for both traditional and exotic pets. I’ve also spent time around cats through friends and family and am comfortable caring for feline companions as well. While attending Ball State University, I volunteered at local animal shelters, helping care for animals and supporting their daily needs. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, playful, or senior, I understand the importance of providing patience, attention, and loving care. I treat every animal as if they were my own and strive to make them feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Pet care is already a part of my daily routine, as I currently care for my own pets and understand the importance of consistency, attention, and reliability. I work as a State Farm agent in Chicago’s West Loop, and because it is a family-owned business that my family manages and operates daily, I have some flexibility within my schedule when needed. During the week, I am available for pet care before work, after work, and during my lunch break. Depending on the day and my workload, I may also have additional flexibility to accommodate specific care needs. On weekends, I typically have more availability and can provide extra time and attention for walks, drop-in visits, overnight care, and companionship. I am careful not to overbook myself because I believe every pet deserves quality care and attention. When I accept a booking, you can trust that I have the time and availability to provide dependable, attentive care and ensure your pet remains safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. At this time, I’m unable to offer boarding services in my home due to my own pets. However, I am happy to provide a variety of other services, including drop-in visits, dog walking, overnight stays, and personalized in-home pet care. My goal is to ensure your pets remain comfortable in their familiar environment while receiving the attention, companionship, and care they deserve. Whether your pet needs playtime, feeding, medication administration, exercise, or simply a reassuring presence while you’re away, I am committed to providing safe, reliable, and compassionate care tailored to their needs.

“Arie is amazing!! This was my first booking with her and she was so great about communicating and sending updates throughout the day, letting me know how Millie was doing eating and stuff, and being flexible fitting visits in with her own dog’s routine and her work schedule. I appreciated having someone so attentive, and I cannot recommend Arie enough!”

“Haley did so great work our pack. She communicated clearly and frequently. She even went above and beyond to rescue our dog when he jumped the fence and went into a creek. It was obvious she cared for them, snuggled them, and loved them.”

Robyn C.

“Grace was tremendous in taking care of Cooper! She made sure to give him lots of love and most importantly, she was very careful in putting him in his crate securely so he couldn’t escape. She sent regular updates and we came home to a clean and tidy house. We already have her booked for future stays and will continue to use her!”

Patrick N.

“Alexis took wonderful care of Cooper while I was away! She kept me updated with photos and videos throughout his stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear that Cooper was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. When I returned, my apartment was just as neat and clean as I had left it, which I really appreciated. Alexis was reliable, communicative, and treated both Cooper and my home with great care. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter, and I would gladly book with her again!”

Byron C.

“Dylan was a wonderful sitter! He was very accommodating to my last minute plans and was able to come to my house to sit my dog Sabu. I think Sabu really enjoyed his time with him and I would recommend him to any pet parent!”

Nikita J.

“Nicole, again, was superb with our dog named Sunny. She has sat for our dog six times in the past year and always gives our dog such loving care. She is someone that you definitely want caring for your pet. SHE IS THAT GOOD!!! I can't praise her highly enough!”

Dawn K.

“Danielle took great care of Lavender during her sit. She was patient and followed all of the instructions. Really appreciate her looking after Lavender.”

“Destiny is a true gem! My dog has separation anxiety and cannot be alone. He is also slow to warm up to strangers. But Destiny had him calm and wanting affection in under two minutes. :) I will definitely call on her again!”

“Joanna did a fantastic job caring for our dog and cat while we were away. Lots of pictures and videos! She was very responsive to our messages when we had a momentary panic about scheduling. She reassured us all would be well and it was. Thanks Joanna!”

Emiko M.

“Bryan did an excellent job taking care of RB and Frida. He was on top of everything, making sure the girls had their meals, walks, potty breaks etc. He is not afraid to ask anything (which we prefer rather than assume). Girls seems very happy and our apartment was spotless and well taken care of when we returned back. Definitely recommended for when you are away!! ❤️🐶”

“Kaleigh went above and beyond to help my sick kitty girl. My cat normally has medications, but at the last minute Kaleigh had to give an antibiotic twice a day plus the other medications injected orally. She did it with ease and flexibility. I could tell my cat really liked her since she was so happy in the photos she sent me. She even came by after she was done to make sure my cat wasn’t suffering without the AC on. She’s wonderful, caring and so reasonable. I highly recommend her.”

“Dominque was so kind and communicative. We have two large dogs and she handled them so well! We will definitely rebook with her in the future”

Betty T.

“Would give 10 stars if we could!! Gem did an amazing job connecting with our dog. She is very communicative, sent the cutest pictures of our baby, and clearly has a great love for pets. We’re so glad to have found her and will happily continue trusting her with our dog <3”

Julianna L.

“Kathryn went above and beyond taking care of ALL our animals. We received pictures and updates daily. Our pets always looked so relaxed and peaceful in all the pictures. We had a stress free vacation knowing all our babies were well taken care of. We highly recommend Kathryn and will definitely use her again in the future.”

Joisa

“Kat was such a great sitter! She house sat for us over a holiday weekend and took such great care of our two cats. She was very communicative and provided great updates throughout her stay. She left our home extremely clean as well. We will definitely plan to book Kat again!”

“Tara is fabulous with my cat. I appreciated how much time and energy she spent playing with Jim Catsby. She sent me awesome photos and a video of their time together. Tara really cares about Jim, and leaving him happy. I’m grateful for her passion for pets and their care. She is motivated to give our pets the best experience possible.”

“Dominique was friendly and a great sitter for my girl Millie! I was only gone for a couple days but she still sent updates throughout the weekend, letting me know what they got up to together and how Millie was doing with her meals and potty time. I appreciated her communication and flexibility as she balanced Millie’s routine with her own dog’s needs. Thank you Dominique!”
