“Heather was a very pleasant surprise when I was in a tight bind for time. She not only did a splendid job looking after my two kitties spoiled by my presence nearly all the time; she also tended to a couple of household issues in my absence. Both my high-needs geriatric cat and my rambunctious kitten loved her and were quite obviously happy with her care. They presented no signs of distress upon my return, and my home was a pleasure to return to. She is a lovely woman whose help I will seek whenever I need a cat-sitter. Oh! And she also gave me a sweet gift of a book!”
“Jennevy is amazing! One of my dogs is a rescue and very challenging, he doesn’t like anyone and can be aggressive. She won him over, and he doesn’t even bark at her anymore. I felt very comfortable leaving my fur babies in her care, I trusted her completely. She’s very knowledgeable about dogs and dog behavior, and very conscientious and concerned for their well being. This was my first time leaving them with a stranger and she passed with flying colors. I highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs.”
“Dana did a great job with our girls who warmed up to her really quickly. We appreciated her sending us photos and giving us updates how they were doing. Thank you again Dana!”
“Ashley is awesome and very reliable! My kitten is a little trouble maker and Ashley was so sweet to clean up after he broke two of my plant pots. I am grateful to work with her!”
“Ashely ways goes way above and beyond to care for my cat and home! Sweeping up litter, watering my plants. I always so appreciate her kindness help and my cat really likes her too.”
“Jennifer is an incredible sitter! We have had her watch our cat Charlie a few times and she goes above and beyond for him while we are away! She brings extra toys and sends the best photos of him and treats him like a pet or her own. We would recommend Jennifer over and over again”
“It was our first time using an outside dog walker. Beth showed up on time and send us cute updates and photos! She will definitely be our regular walker moving forward!”
“It was a wonderful experience! Janet checked in on time, kept me updated, and ensured Draco was happy and well-fed. I felt completely at ease knowing she was taking care of him!”
“We are so happy Carly was available to look after our cats while we were out of town. I appreciate her loving and thorough care for our cats!! Highly recommend and can’t wait to work with her again. Thank you!”
“Rachel is so great! She is attentive, friendly, and so good with the cats! She followed our instructions perfectly and she is communicative throughout the entire process. We felt safe leaving our cats with her and we will be booking with her in the future. We would give her 6 stars if we could!”
“Britt was absolutely amazing!! Our dog doesn't like new people taking her out right away, but she took to Britt within just a couple days. Very easy to work with and 100000% recommend!”
About: Dog owner for 17 years, cat owner my whole life. I’m very active love long walks and cuddles. I just lost my 15 year old dog so I’m familiar with senior care and we currently have a puppy so I’m dealing with that so I can handle anything. I work from home so I can do before work (early mornings), midday and afternoons. I can stop in for feedings and or walks. Maybe just cuddles if that’s needed. Fenced yard, 2 friendly dogs. I can stop by for feedings/walks. Very trustworthy mom of 3 grown children. My pups are my world and I know you feel the same about yours.
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.
About: Looking for a reliable, loving pet sitter? I provide personalized care in my home, ensuring your pets feel safe, happy and comfortable while you’re away. I offer one-on-one attention, tailored routines and regular updates with photos. Whether it's walks, playtime or special needs care, I treat every pet like family. I have two young, friendly cats who are used to other pets and are very playful, loving and curious! I will work from home while watching your pet. While you're away, I will provide attentive, loving care for your pets in a safe and familiar environment. I prioritize their well-being, ensuring they feel comfortable, secure, and stress-free. From feeding and exercise to companionship and routine care, I’ll follow your instructions carefully. Trust is key—I’ll treat your pets like family, keeping them happy and safe.
About: Hi, I’m Grace! I’m a college student with over 4 years of pet care experience. I spent more than 2 years volunteering at my local humane society as a dog walker, and I have two dogs of my own at home. I love all animals and would be happy to care for your furry friends. I’m home for the summer with plenty of time to play with your pups. I have a very flexible schedule and am available throughout the week. I follow your pet’s routine, provide walks and playtime, keep them safe and happy, and give plenty of love and attention while keeping you updated.

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!
Im absolutely thrilled with Agnieszka! I hope she will always be free to take care of my fur babies when I travel. Not only did she take excellent care of them but she sent me a lot of gorgeous pictures. The only problem with telling you that you too will be thrilled with her care is that she might be busy the next time I need her. 😊
