House Sitting in Glen Ellyn

“Dana is our go to sitter for our dog Felix. He is always excited to spend time with her and her daughter. Our pup has had ongoing medical issues that has made caring for him and leaving him alone tough for us. Dana has taken care of him like her own and I feel confident about leaving him in her care. She is also so accommodating and thoughtful while we have had some tough times dealing with Felix’s health this past year. We truly appreciate all the help she has provided us.”

“Ash was great! We had them stay for one night with our dog, Bingo, and they came to walk Bingo a few days before the stay. Ash was always punctual, good with communication, and the house was exactly as we left it. Most importantly, Bingo wasn't stressed at all when we came home and was his usual happy self. I would definitely use Ash again and recommend them to others!”

“Maria did a wonderful job taking care of Hazel and my two cats. She sent lots of pictures and daily updates, which allowed me to enjoy my vacation and not worry about my pets. Thank you!!”

“Melissa took care of our three babies. Our dog Pita is a bit high maintenance due to her allergies. Melissa was patient and provided excellent care. Dewey, our youngest cat is very shy. It usually takes a while for him to warm up to new people. He had no problem getting to know Melissa within minutes. She gave our other cat Boogie lots of love and attention as well. We definitely will ask Melissa to stay with Pita, Boogie and Dewey the next time we go away. We cannot thank her enough!”

About: There has never been a day in my life where I haven't had a dog, so I will love your dog like its my own. I have experience from training two of my own puppies to caring for my senior dogs. I have been pet sitting since I was 13 so I have a wide range of experience with different types of breeds, personalities, training, etc. I currently work part time during the daytime 11am - 4pm throughout the week so I'm available anytime in the evening or morning to help! I am a very loving person when it comes to pets, so I will do all the things your fur baby loves to do! Whether that's long walks, going to the park, playing with a frisbee, or just hanging out, I will do it! I want to make your pet the happiest it can be!

“Highly recommend Claudia! She was an amazing house sitter and took amazing care of my two dogs. She kept me updated with how they were doing the whole time I was gone and I am very appreciative of the amazing care she provided for my dogs!”

“Vickie was exceptional with our boys (large dog, Indy, and cat, Sprout). She always kept the line of communication open and sent us pictures and updates of the pets every day. She is kind, respectful, caring, and clean, and she will go above and beyond to make sure you and your pets are comfortable and happy. Would highly recommend!”

“Keri took great care of Benny! She stayed overnight and left the house clean. Keri gave updates and pictures along the way. We’ll definitely request her care for our big pup again soon.”

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 12 and have had dogs of my own since I was 4. I have experience with dog socialization including working with local humane societies and volunteering for 4 Paws 4 Ability, where I trained service dogs in training. I have experience with many breeds of all ages and am comfortable handling medication if needed. I will have plenty of time to take care of pups this summer as I just graduated college and am waiting to find employment! I am available to stop in to let your pup out or take them for a walk when you need if I’m in town! My top priority is making sure your dog or cat gets the love and care they need. As a pet owner, I know you expect someone who is qualified, reliable, and will put your babies first!

About: Caring for animals has always been one of my greatest joys. I have a genuine passion for animals and helping others. As a lifelong pet owner and animal lover, I understand that pets are family, and I treat every pet in my care with the same love, patience, and attention I would give my own. Growing up, my family always had pets, including dogs, guinea pigs, rabbits, and hamsters. I have owned and cared for dogs throughout my life, including my beloved Golden Retriever, Rocky, who was my loyal companion for 13 wonderful years. Losing him two years ago only strengthened my appreciation for the special bond we share with our pets. Over the years, I have provided care for dogs-including seniors-and cats belonging to friends, relatives, and neighbors. Whether your pet enjoys walks, plenty of time to sniff and explore, play sessions, or simply relaxing with cuddles and affection, I tailor my care to their individual personality and needs. I understand the importance of consistency and will follow your pet's routines, feeding schedules, and any special instructions to help them feel safe, comfortable, and secure while you are away. I am also committed to keeping pet parents informed with regular updates and photos, so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is happy and well cared for. My schedule is currently flexible during the week and most weekends. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! 🐾💕 I live in an apartment, and unfortunately pet sitting is not allowed. I am experienced in providing drop-in or overnight care in your home. My schedule is flexible as I am currently working part time. Besides the typical 9-5 I'm open to early mornings or late day drop-ins. I'm available most weekends. I will do my best to accommodate your schedule. My clients trust me to keep their pet safe by following the owners care guidelines and I treat them as if they were my own. I enjoy learning your dog's personality and how I can make them happy. I respect my clients' homes and make sure I follow the rules of the house you have for your pet. I will make sure I leave your home in the same condition as when I arrived.

“Katherine stayed with our two dogs over Memorial Day weekend. She kept us updated, shared pictures, handled their allergy meds and somewhat complicated food situation, and was overall lovely to work with!”

About: I've been a full time veterinary assistant for 5 years now. I've loved animals since I was a child. I pet sit friends and family pets. I work really close to my apartment. I am able to take care of your pet before and after work. I can stop by my apartment on my lunch break and take care of your pet, if needed. I do not work on weekends. My apartment has a dog park, but I do like going on long walks. Play time is essential. Giving treats as a reward for training.

“Gavin was fantastic! Communicated very well while we were gone and Mia seemed well-loved. And the house was in great shape when we got home”

Brad O.

“Fantastic sitter! Kept up with communication, sent pictures daily, and made sure the pups were very happy! Our very active pup was TIRED when we returned which is always a great sign of a weekend well played! Couldn’t have asked for anything better!”

About: My parents have a farm with three big dogs and many small ones, I’ve taken care of them many times over the years. I have neighbors and friends reaching out to care for their furry friends while they are out of town. I promise to give your loved furry one the love they would expect on a day to day basis I work from home so if I need to spend the day with your pet I can be there for them as I work! Outside of work hours I can give long walks and tons of play time. If you pet needs extra attention I can provide lots of head pets or give them space if they like to spend their time alone.

About: I’ve had pets my entire life and grew up caring for both cats and dogs. Throughout childhood, my family had a cat and we frequently dog-sat for multiple dogs. In college, I continued pet sitting as a side job and gained even more hands-on experience. I regularly care for friends’ and family’s dogs when they travel. I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes, breeds, and ages, and I genuinely love animals. I especially enjoy walking dogs and making sure they get plenty of exercise, attention, and affection. I am available Friday-Sunday. I am work from home Friday, so I can help out during the day, and through the weekend. I am flexible to your schedule! When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on keeping their routine and environment consistent so they feel safe and comfortable. For drop-in visits, I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, and get plenty of attention and playtime (my favorite!). I always check that doors, gates, and crates are secure before and after visits. I am extremely responsible as I have cared for pets my whole life. For walks, I use secure leashes and harnesses as instructed by the owner and stay aware of my surroundings at all times. I avoid unsafe areas, watch closely for other animals, and make sure each walk matches the pet’s energy level and needs. I have experience with all sizes of dogs. I treat every home and pet with respect and care, follow all owner instructions closely, and provide updates so pet parents feel confident their pets are safe and happy. I would love to care for your pet!

“This is our second time booking with Katherine, and first time having her stay overnight. She is great and reliable and our pup Sky (husky, 12 yrs) has really taken to her. She gives great updates and we feel at ease knowing she’s there. Will definitely book again!”
