“Stacie was awesome, she took really GREAT care of my kitties. We've only had them 3 months and didn't know what to do. We were so glad to have found someone so caring of animals. Loved the selfies, we would use her again. Thank you so much!!!!”


“Kelera was great! She played with our cats and gave great updates with photos and videos. I have an older cat that is scared of everything and she did her best to check in on her. Our younger cat was so excited for playing”


“Jazz was so very awesome. This was the first time we used Rover and she was a definite awesome choice for our cats. We had a video call before to discuss everything and make sure we both knew what was to be expected. I got a text and photos and video of her visit with the cats, so my mind was more at ease. We will definitely recommend and rebook Jazz 😊”


“Lisa has watched my two cats, twice now and I cannot emphasize how amazing she is. She is so professional and always checks everything off my list. She also sends very detailed updates and photos. She makes my time away from home so easy because her service gives me such peace of mind. She has easily become my best sitter experience! Please book her! You will be so glad you did! ❤️”


“Erica has babysat our cat Domino in our home several times now. Domino is a cat that we took several months to rescue earlier this year. Consequently, she is shy and a bit skittish around new people. She bonded with Erica almost immediately! Erica has two cats of her own, so she knows a lot about them and their finicky nature. Erica has a warm and caring nature that comes across in the way that she communicates with Domino. She calls Domino her niece! Erica is fastidious with Domino’s litter box and feeds her twice daily. She sends us regular posts and updates regarding Domino’s antics. Erica spends time with Domino and plays with her. We miss Domino when we are gone, but never worry that she will be too lonely without us. We feel secure when we are away. We trust Erica with having the keys to our home. We have the utmost confidence that Erica will take great care of our fur baby.”


About: I have extensive experience in pet care, having spent several years looking after a variety of animals including dogs, cats, and small pets. My responsibilities have included feeding, grooming, administering medication, walking dogs, cleaning litter boxes and cages, and providing companionship to ensure each pet feels safe and loved. I understand the importance of routine, patience, and attention to detail when it comes to animal care. Whether caring for energetic puppies or senior pets with special needs, I always prioritize their well-being, comfort, and happiness. Pet care is a natural and consistent part of my daily routine. Since I’m available every day, I’m able to dedicate plenty of time and attention to each pet’s unique needs. Whether it’s feeding, walking, grooming, or simply spending quality time with them, I make sure every task is done with care and patience. My flexible schedule allows me to adjust easily to last-minute needs or extended care, which helps build trust with both pets and their owners. Being fully available means I can maintain a reliable and steady routine that keeps pets happy, healthy, and comfortable. I care for pets in their own home to ensure they stay comfortable in a familiar environment. When I visit a client’s home, I follow their specific care instructions closely. I make sure to keep the pet’s routine as consistent as possible to reduce stress while their owner is away. I’m respectful of the home, always keeping things clean and organized, and I stay in touch with owners through updates and photos so they know their pets are safe, happy, and well-cared for.

About: I’ve had pets my whole life ranging from fish, amphibians, rodents, birds, cats, and dogs. I love connecting with animals and giving them all the love they deserve! I also am a former vet assistant (I now work at a vet lab) so I have experience with pets of all ages, temperaments, and health statuses. My priority is the pets’ safety and comfort, and will work with them to ensure we have a foundation of trust. I also can work enrichment into my visits to get their minds more stimulated or just give them a 15 minute belly rub if that’s more up their alley. I’ve also trained many of my pets so I can help introduce basic commands to puppies or reinforce commands and manners from older pets. I’m available pretty much every day for the summer. Once mid-August comes around, I’ll be available Sunday-Tuesday at all times and Wednesday-Saturday from 9-11 AM I can come in let the pets out, clean up messes from them, feed/water, play enrichment games or work on training, and give them lots of love!

About: We have always had pets growing up. Both cats and dogs. I've had a pit bull in my early teens and had also adopted a 10yr old senior dog. I have experience giving my senior medicine and being extra gentle when it is needed. I currently have a reactive German Shepherd so if you're looking for someone to watch your big dog that pulls a lot, I have tons of experience and am strong enough to hold him or her. Basically I have had experience with animals in different stages of their life. Im still learning as Odin has training classes and I use what I learn to help with other pets. I've watched pets for friends and family in the past and have done drop in visits for years now. I am able to travel further distances if you aren't able to find someone local just send a message. I do work full-time so I can come before or after work through out the week. I'm off two days out of the week and if you would like to schedule a weekly walk schedule or drop in visit I will work closely with you to make my schedule accommodating for your pet. Ex. If you would like a certain day or if the week for me to walk and visit your dog I can request those days off if far enough in advance. Currently I am not doing overnight visits or day care but it's important to keep pets on their original schedule. For drop-in visits and walks, I think it would be best to stick to their original route and if they don't yet have one, a walk with a nice game of fetch is usually good enough to tire them out a bit. I will always send pictures when your pet and I are on our adventures together.

About: I was the neighborhood baby/dog sitter for most of my teens and even now I do the occasional dog sitting for a week or so for family friends. I have taken care of dogs ranging from Chihuahuas to Great Danes. I recently started fostering kittens and have a newfound love for those little guys too! I’ve owned bunnies and hamsters, watched a snake, taken care of a bird. You name it I’m sure I’ve had some sort of experience with it! I’d be so happy to take care of your critter too <3 I work from home! Rest assured your little buddy will get lots of attention in my care. If they have a more strict letting out schedule that’s absolutely no problem! I have a small mix dog, with two friendly cats. I work from home and can spend more time than the average person with your pet. I have a non fenced in yard, but am happy to take out on walks or on their leash in my yard.

“Sammi is very attentive. She listened to and followed through with the tasks requested, even when I had a tendency to change a few ideas from time to time. I definitely felt a lot more comfortable going on my trip with her watching my cats. There are also many other positives I can point out such as her having excellent communication, keeping up with updates, having exceptional people skills (which is still needed when dealing with pets) and truly making an effort to take care of my cats and ensure they and I were comfortable. I appreciated this greatly.”



“Cindy was absolutely amazing! I was so uneasy after missing my meet and greet with the original scheduled sitter. But Cindy came and met my dogs and took the time to warm up to them in my absence. She’s really kind and sweet. I would definitely use her again. What a great service that allows the opportunity for dogs to stay at home in an environment where they feel comfortable or go out and enjoy something new! Thank you so much ?”

“JeTaun is super sweet and our kitties immediately took to her. We have cats with some tummy issues, so they don't always go in their litterbox, and this didn't bother her at all. She stayed at our house for a week while we were out of the country, and you couldn't even tell anyone had been there. We will definitely be booking her again!”


About: I both work from home and can accommodate a clients needs. It is important to me that your pet is comfortable and can feel right at home. I aim to make sure that schedules or other owner guidelines are followed and maintained. I enjoy playing in the yard and taking long walks in the forest preserve. I'm alwsys open for cuddle seesions as well. I have 10 years experience raising and caring for pets. We are open to site visits and meet and greets. Please reach out if you have any questions about us, our schedule, or service provided. We are here to help! We know your pup will feel like part of the family! We look forward to meeting. I work from home so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pet. Because of my flexible schedule I can accommodate all your pet needs. I maintain any regular schedules or restrictions that you may have in your home. Ve assured me that their safety is my first priority as well as having fun!

I know my animals can cause messes (I have 4 of them) and I always come back to my house clean and no sign of any messes (which I know she is covering for them). :) I would highly recommend Tori to anyone looking for a pet sitter. She will take care of them as if they are her own.”

“Chris and Paris are the perfect dog sitters. My dog Mazal loved hanging out in their backyard, and got lots of love and attention from them and their two kids. He is a very active dog so it was nice that they went to the forest preserve daily. I loved getting all the pictures during the day. I am definitely going to use them again.”
