Pet Sitting in Elgin

“Katelyn was very friendly and attentive. She was kind enough to come and meet the dogs before our trip. There were several pictures of the dogs each day for us to see how well they were doing. She took really good care our three dogs. Our pups loved her.”

“Jessica & Luis saved us when our original sitter fell through last minute. They were a joy to work with. Communicative, friendly, and our pups loved them. We will definitely be calling them again!”

“Carson is awesome with our big dogs! They really put in the time to get to know the dogs. It has been a real bonus for us to have them come while I'm laid up with a broken ankle.”

About: I have five years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. Neighbors and family trust me to keep their pets safe, happy and well-fed. Pet care fits perfectly into my flexible daily schedule. Because I have plenty of open time throughout the week, I can easily prioritize regular feeding, walking, and playtime routines. When caring for pets in a client's home, safety and trust are my top priorities. I respect your space, double-check that all doors and gates are securely locked, and keep a close eye on your pet at all times.

“Madeline was so great with our dogs, Wilson and Bailey! We could tell immediately that she was an animal lover and that our dogs would be well-cared for. Would absolutely book her again!”

“It is a pleasure to have Brianna as our pet sitter. She takes the time to acknowledge your pet's needs while keeping them busy and entertained while they are under her care. Having Bri watching your pet while you are away from home is a peace of mind.”

About: I love animals. I used to have three Shar Peis, which can be fairly temperamental, but I think I was their favorite walker. I've walked dogs with Wag for years and have cared for dogs ranging from tiny pups to large Anatolian Shepherds. I work from home most days, so having a dog or two in the house is not an issue. And, i don't mind sitting at other folks' homes, if the dogs are more comfortable in their own environment. I've recently fenced our backyard with a 6 foot privacy fence, so that visiting dogs will be secure during off-leash play. I live in a quiet neighborhood and there is a large park down the street, so walks can be quite lengthy, if the dog is up for it. I have a few chickens in a coop / run in the backyard. The app asks about my pets but then when I said ‘yes’ only allowed me to pick either ‘dog’ or ‘cat’ - and I couldn’t list birds so I couldn’t update it. 😕. Apparently Rover thinks there are only two kinds of animals??? Visits to the backyard are always supervised to keep everyone safe.

About: Have had dogs and cats my whole life. True animal lover who will take great care of your pet! I have also watched friends and family's pets while they were away. I am returning to my full-time job in August. I will still be available to walk after school into the early evening and then possibly some Saturday mornings. I will update my calendar. I loved doing this over the summer and I hope to continue on throughout the school year.. My cats are very spoiled and want a lot of attention. They love that I can be with them during the day. When I had dogs, I spent a lot of time walking them and also playing with them in the yard.

“Jamie was exceptional! We started with a meet and greet the week before with my new rescue dog Hera, and she was great with her knowing that she was very afraid of strangers. Hera had some stomach irritation 2 days before the booking and our vacation, and the first day Jamie came she let us know that Hera had gotten worse and was throwing up/had loose stool and should be taken to a vet. She was amazing with her communication and letting us know everything that was going on. We got a friend to take her to the vet and get medication and Jamie continued her visits and administered the medication and hand fed Hera. She was so sweet with her and was very understanding of the situation and even had to do some extra clean up of Hera that was not planned for. We would definitely recommend Jamie and would use her again with no question.”

About: I provide reliable, compassionate in-home pet sitting and drop-in care for pets of all kinds. I’m especially comfortable with anxious or sensitive pets and take time to build trust at their pace. I care for every pet like they’re my own, prioritizing their routine and lots of loving attention. Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine, so I can be available for frequent drop-ins as needed. I plan my schedule around visits so I can be fully present for your pet. I care for pets in my clients’ homes by following their usual routines as closely as possible. This includes feeding, litter box or potty care, walks, playtime, and administering medication when needed. I take a patient, gentle approach (especially with pets who need time to warm up) and always prioritize safety and comfort. I respect your home and provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident while you’re away.

“Great energy! My dog absolutely loved her and it felt like he got all the attention he needed! Would definitely come back to Vicki to have her watch Kovu again!”

“We’re so grateful to Amy for taking such amazing care of our dog Max. She treated him with so much love and attention it truly felt like he was with family. Amy kept us updated, was super reliable, and went above and beyond to make sure Max was happy and comfortable. We came home to a very content pup and complete peace of mind. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to look after their pets.”

About: I would take my dog out for walks everyday since I was 13 and would make sure she was cared for, played with, and properly groomed I am currently working two jobs part-time, but I am often available to walk dogs (morning, day or afternoon) or cat-sit in my free time. In my home, we make sure our cats are fed at least twice a day and we scoop their litter everyday. When we had my senior dog, we would let her outside often to get some exercise and would bathe her at least once a month when she got dirty.

About: I have cared for dogs ever since I was little. I am a collegiate athlete and very active, I will take your dog(s) on long walks and play with outside frequently! Caring for pets is more than just watching, feeding, bathing and walking. It is loving and showing up when they need it, just like kids! I care for animals the way I care for kids, and I am a part time babysitter. I make sure both of my cats are always comfortable, well fed, played with and loved always. I will care for your pets the way I care for my own.

“Stephanie did a wonderful job with our dogs. We were gone 5 days all went weil, got some nice pictures of the dogs during her visits. We trust her and will use again.”
