4. Joanna K.
“Joanna has sat for both my dogs more times than I can count, and let me tell you that these dogs are a handful! One is a senior dog and the other is a large 70 pound mix, both who require unique and special attention. Joanna has always been extremely reliable and has taken the best care of my babies. She is attentive, responsive and the dogs get so excited to see her every single time. I highly recommend Joanna for all of your pet sitting needs, I trust her 100%.”

“Dalila was great to work with! She came over and did a meet and greet with my cat before the visit which helped me feel really comfortable with her. She was extremely professional and sweet. I came home to a very happy kitty 😊”
6. Emily N.
“Emily is an AMAZING cat sitter. She was super communicative, treated our cat so well, and went above and beyond. She would even bring in our packages and one time our cat made a mess and without even asking her to, Emily vaccummed our apartment. If you want truly exceptional care for your cat, please hire Emily. She is the cat sitter we will use moving forward. Thank you, Emily!!”
7. Martha G.
“Martha took great care of my kitties while I was out of the country. She was also very respectful of my home. I never had to worry about if they were fed and loved. Will absolutely hire again!”
8. Josie S.
“Josie was amazing with our older cat Kim while we were away. She spent plenty of time getting him to play, made sure he was eating enough each day, and gave him plenty of brushes. She went above and beyond what we asked and I'd be lucky to book her again next time we are out of town.”
9. Yaneris A.
“Yaneris is a very caring and attentive dog owner and dog sitter. With her dog Arya, Yaneris has organized a routine for Arya in terms of the meals and walks. Yaneris has also taken the initiative to attend dog training programs with Arya, where her dog has learned how to behave well. Arya is a very sweet dog that gets along with other dogs and I believe this is due to Yaneris’ loving care towards Arya. More importantly, Yaneris tenderly reminds Arya that she must play nice with other dogs and Arya always listens to her. Yaneris ensures that Arya goes to the vet very frequently to stay up to date with her vaccines. When Arya is not feeling well, Yaneris either calls the emergency dog care number or makes an appointment with the vet. If Arya needs to take medication prescribed by the vet, Yaneris sets reminders on her phone to let her know when it is time for Arya to take the medicine. Even though Yaneris is currently in school, she makes time to play with Arya, especially on the weekends. Yaneris is always looking for dog events in Chicago, where Arya can meet other dogs or simply just have fun outdoors. Aside from taking care of Arya, I have seen Yaneris dog sit for her friend’s two dogs. Before taking care of the dogs, she asks the dog owner for the dog care plan - the meals, their walk routine, any reminders she must be aware of, etc. Yaneris has a great balance when going on walks with 3 dogs. Before going on walks with the dogs, Yaneris reminds them that they must listen to her. At the park, Yaneris does a great job in getting the dogs to come back to her in order to put on their leashes and return home. She also checks in regularly with the dog owner to let them know how their dogs are doing. During the time the dogs are at Yaneris’ home, she makes her space cozy for them, so they also feel the same loving care that Arya receives. I believe Yaneris will take very good care of any dog that is placed with her. The dogs will definitely feel at home with her.”

“Jenny is a thoughtful pet sitter and all around great person. During the holidays and throughout the year I travel a lot, Jenny is fast and coordinated throughout the city and has taken my two cats: one was 18 months old and the other was 6 months. Jenny was a pro, followed all the directions, and made me want to become a even better parents to my two fur babies. Thanks Jenny!”
11. Stacy B.
“Stacy is a phenomenal dog sitter! She has a lot of knowledge about canine and feline nutrition! Not only that, but she also has experience with handling reactive dogs by providing them consistent training and a safe place to be themselves. I highly recommend Stacy as your dog sitter!”

17. Sydney S.
“We love Sydney! She communicates quickly, gives us thorough updates, and loves on Pepper. She sends plenty of good photos, too. She’s flexible and helped us out in a tricky situation when we needed a sitter last minute. Pepper is sweet but a very particular dog who needs a sitter that understands that—Sydney gets it! I would highly recommend her.”

“Was super helpful! Able to commit last minute and came to meet the dogs in advance. Came when he said, saw how happy my dogs were to see him (have a pet cam) and was super helpful! Will be hiring again!”
20. Faith L.
“Faith is the best pet caregiver!! Whenever I go on a trip and need someone to watch my Yorkshire terrier, Wilma, I always know that she will be in good hands. Faith is the type of pet caregiver that not only reads and follows your pet instruction manual but makes sure that she spends quality time with your pet. Wilma loves to go in backpack rides and walks in the park. She has a bit of anxiety and in general just likes her quiet time. Faith not only takes her for back pack rides and walks but also gives her plenty of relaxing time in her bed without loud noses. She is kind and gentle and super attentive and truly enjoys spending time with Wilma. If you want a pet caregiver who will give your pet undivided care and attention, you want Faith!”
