Cat Sitting Cicero

“We have booked Leslie several times already and she does NOT disappoint!! Excellent service and no worries at all about our kitty when we leave town. Her check-ins are always thorough. Our kitty remembers her and comes running whenever her friend Leslie visits. We'll continue to book with her as long as she'll want to visit.”

About: I've cared for all kinds of fuzzy friends since I was little; I've been around everything from horses, to goats, to chickens, to dogs of all sizes, to llamas. I have a 5 year old Wheaten Terrier named Dash that is my entire world. I work from home, so I'm able to assist you with walks and drop-ins during the way when you're away! I work from home, so I'm available to help while you're gone throughout the day and into the evening! I have regular availability Monday through Friday and am happy to drop by for a visit or a walk. Regular walks, plenty of attention, and a clean, comfortable environment while I carefully follow each pet's routine! My Wheaten has quirks, so I'm happy to accommodate whatever you need for your family.

About: Growing up with a veterinary technician mother, I have seen how crucial animal care is up close. I have also spent years working in animal foster care and of course, caring for my own babies. I grew up with multiple friends and family who had everything from dogs and cats, to lizards, to horses and am well prepped to take care of your furry friend too! I only work part-time several days a month as my job is currently moving into off-season. My schedule is therefore quite open right now until the season shifts but I will communicate and update as things change. I would love to fill my time with both pet care and the exercise of dog walking! When possible, I visit clients homes prior to their departure so we have a mutual understanding. This helps me see the owner and pet interactions in person, understand the home, and ask any upfront questions as well as answer any that may immediately come up. It is easy for me to find a relaxed activity to do that can keep me with the pets and at their attention at all times.

“Mica did a great job house sitting and watching my two cats when I was away for a weekend! She kept me updated and sent lots of pictures, which really helped keep my mind at ease. I would definitely book her again!”

“Natalee is such a sweet and caring person who genuinely loves the animals in her care. She took the time to come meet us and our cat before the visits started which made us so comfortable. We were gone for an extended period of time and I couldn’t have been happier with the experience. We greatly appreciated all of the photos, updates, notes, time, care, attention and love she gave our fur baby. Will absolutely use her again in the future.”

About: I have had black and white labs, collies, mutts of all shapes and sizes. Currently only a cat dad so I have lots of walks, fetch and love to give to your pet while you are away! My work schedule allows lots of flexibility to visit your furball so I can be available for any and all of your pet needs while you are away! I have an orange tabby named Sully and he is your typical orange cat with limited brain cells and lots of love to give. He was raised in a two dog household when he was a kitten so he thinks he is a dog! He plays fetch, drags toys up and down stairs and likes outdoor walks in his harness. I’ve dealt with many cat and dog emergencies over the years and have a good eye for your pet’s health and any changes.

About: I’ve loved Dogs and Cats for as long as I can remember. I’ve had cats since I was 5 years old, and they’ve always been an important part of my life. I had my 1st dog in middle school so ,I grew up playing with them, sleeping next to them, and caring for them every day. Being around cats and dogs brings me so much joy, and I understand how to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I will care for your cat or dog as if they were my own. Cats are part of my daily life. I don’t have dogs but I love it and also was my daily life when I live with my parents. On Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays, I’m home most of the time, so I can give them plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles. During the week, I’m available from 5 PM until the next morning, and I love spending my evenings relaxing with cats by my side. In my routine, cats are never alone—they are always with me, receiving love and care. Having a dog should not be a probleem :) When caring for cats and dogs in my home or in a client’s home, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow their feeding schedule, keep their litter box clean, afternoon walks,play with them, give them plenty of attention and affection, and respect their personality and routine. I enjoy spending quality time with cats, whether they want to play, cuddle, or simply relax nearby.Trust me i will not fail:)

“This is my first time ever using Rover. I think that Steph was amazing. But I realize I did not know to tell her that my girls are very talkative girls and the more she talks the more they respond to her. We had one miscommunication, that the food upstairs was already upstairs. But I will learn to do better! She did a great job for me!”
