“Victoria has been a reliable cat sitter, they obviously love her which is very reassuring when we have to leave town. She’s flexible with changes in plan which we really appreciate too”
“Heather is the best cat sitter we have ever had. She has been visiting our cats for nearly a year and we are so grateful for her attention to detail and the way she cares for them. She sends the sweetest updates and always goes above and beyond if she notices one of the cats got sick or made a mess. We cannot thank her enough.”
“Ashley did a fantastic job sitting for my two cats over almost a full two-week timeframe. I have never felt this at ease with a sitter and was really able to relax on my vacation. Timely, respectful, and my cats warmed up to her immediately. I'll never hesitate to rebook!”
“Rachel was great! She was super easy to talk to, accommodating, and sent plenty of photos. Upon talking to her, I knew I was putting my cats in good hands and I would not have an issue hiring her again!”
“Dana was so wonderful with our kitty! It was our first time leaving him alone while we went out of town and we were a little nervous because he’s very shy around new people. By her second visit with him it was clear he was perfectly comfortable and so happy to see her. Dana sends many pictures and gives you thorough updates with each visit, so you know your baby is safe and happy. She cares very much about each animal she takes on, and you can tell! Highly recommend her!”
“This was our second time booking with Rachel and she was just as amazing as before! She took great care of our cat Golu during our vacation, stopping by daily and sending us updates and photos. Golu was happy and relaxed when we got back. Highly recommend Rachel—she’s reliable, caring, and our go-to cat sitter!”
“Britt was awesome and took great care of the dogs during her time there. It was a short notice for this booking and knowing the dogs were well taken care of while I was gone allowed me to have a great time away, all thanks to Britt. I was provided with updates during every visit and cannot say enough good things about her! Will 100% be booking with her for all my dog sitting needs”

About: We lost our cocker spaniel of 13 years about 2 years ago so I love to take care of dogs now that we don’t have a dog to pamper. We care for one dog at a time unless two dogs are siblings or good friends then that’s OK. I love to walk around Lake Ellyn Park nearby or just snuggle on the couch and chill with them. I realize how important your baby is to you and will give them love, companionship and special care. We love having a dog around. I’m retired and an empty nester so I am flexible and around all the time. I love to walk around Lake Ellyn Park and Glenbard West HS just down my street. We also like to sit on the front porch in the shade (gated) and watch the world go by. It’s a dead end street; so it’s very relaxed & chill. We are a few blocks from Main Street and town. We love hanging out in the back yard or the porch with our dog guests and take frequent walks.
“Carly: What can we say. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU! Three days of check ins,with our fur baby, and she was wonderful, well fed, and sassy as ever. You put in the extra effort and searched her out, and I know how hard it is to find a kitten. You found her and sent us pictures every day. You made us feel so much better, having to leave her for the first time. Thanks for bringing in our mail and even the package, you even fixed Maggie's swing. Truly the best ever!”
About: I’ve had dogs for my whole life, all pitbulls except for one sweet Boston mix. I have experience with all ages including puppies and seniors. In my neighborhood I dogsit for many of the neighbors and I never lack in love or care regardless if the dog is mine or not. I love to take many pictures and videos to send because I understand the worry a pet parent must feel and I think the pictures ease their worry My mom can watch my dogs when I’m out for days so I never have to worry about them. I’m available 100%, weekdays, weekends, and holidays! Even when I start my job as a canine hydrotherapist I’ll still be available! I’m flexible in my care and happy to accommodate any wishes or needs for your dog, just let me know beforehand so I can prepare accordingly

Kelly is an amazing care taker. She truly spends time with our cats and you can tell she cares. She is professional, reliable, and communicative. We have full confidence that our cats are receiving the very best care possible when we’re away. Highly recommend.
I am so grateful that Kristen was able to care for my cat Sylvester last minute. She took great care of him and he looked very happy and comfortable with her in the pictures. Kirsten has great communication and I felt comfortable and safe having her in my home. I recommend her and would book with her again!
Edgar and his kids did such a great job taking care of my cat Jake that even though he’s so shy with people he started to feel comfortable and safe with them within a few days. He always had plenty of food and water and Edgar was communicative and sent pictures everyday and text messages everyday. I highly recommend him and his kids. Thank you for taking care of my baby so well!
Katherine was such an amazing help for our anxious attachment kitty, Gwen! My husband and I went on vacation for a week, and we were worried that Gwen would starve herself like she did on our last vacation. Katherine gave us daily updates and pictures of Gwen. Gwen even ate all her food under Katherine's care! I highly recommend booking with Katherine!
Alex took wonderful care of our two cats while we were on a two week trip. She dropped in once a day and even volunteered to check in a few extra times to put medicine on our cat that had a skin sore. Alex is great at communicating and sent lots of pictures. I would highly recommend Alex. She does an excellent job!
Hannah took such great care of my two kitties while I was away. She did drop-in visits and sent me pictures. I could see that they really warmed up to her! She sent me reports and everything went really well. She will be my first choice the next time I go out of town. Thanks Hannah!
