“Kim was such a wonderful host to Pepper. We love all the pictures and her attention and care for ppper was greatly appreciated. Pepper has a great time and we were so happy with her. We definitely will use her service again.”
“Jacob is amazing! He puts the dogs and the owner at ease! He was so great with our Sophie and sent pictures each day!:). We can not say enough good things about him!!:)”
“Angela is great!!! She sent pictures and updates. There was no need to worry because she kept me posted. Her family treated my furbies as if they were their own and took great care of tbem. I feel like I found them a home away from home. Just hope they are available when i need them.”
“I was very anxious about leaving my large elderly bulldog with someone new. Chisato kindly allowed us a meet and greet prior to our reservation to alleviate my concerns and allow my dog a chance to visit her home. During my dog's stay, I received very regular text updates with lots of pictures, video, and descriptions of her day. She took my lazy pup out for many slow walks, and did a wonderful job managing her medications and dietary needs, including a medicated bath. I am extremely happy with the care our dog received, and will absolutely recommend her to our friends and family.”
“The absolute best! Jordan cared for our Bowie and especially our Senior Lola with the utmost care and attention. He was amazing with both dogs and we will use him again without question.”
“Kelli was fantastic! We felt so safe leaving Tinkerbell with. We loved the updates and pictures we received. We will definitely use Kelli again andwould wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone”
“I was so lucky to find Stella! Boarding the girls in a loving home was exactly what I wanted. Having a fenced yard was a great vacation for them. The updates and photos were great. Highly recommend!”
“Debbie & Tom are wonderful! They love Cooper like he is their own and are great about sending us pictures of him each day. They took such good care of our dog that we didn’t have to worry at all. We will definitely have Cooper stay with them again. 🐾”
“Mary and Norman watched our fur baby while on a week’s vacation and they exceeded our expectations! Not only were they very accommodating with our schedule, they also sent daily updates and made our dog feel right at home - they treated her like their own! Mary and Norman will be the first we call whenever we need a pet sitter.”
“Anna was super kind and accommodating. She did take pictures (which I so appreciate) including on walks. My dog was a bit high energy and Anna managed well - I know because he came back tired. Also, super helpful when we had to cut the trip short. TY Anna!”
“Jordan stayed in contact with us on how our dogs were doing through texts and videos. One of our dogs is a five month old puppy, and I was a bit nervous about leaving him, but she took great care of him with lots of attention and snuggles! I would definitely use Jordan again.”
“We were really happy with our decision to have Monica care for our two dogs during a weekend away. She was super responsive, flexible, and accommodating and it was obvious she loves animals and took very good care of them. Her house is very clean with lots of places for the dogs to relax, and her fenced backyard was perfect for playtime. Highly recommend!”
“Jody was a wonderful host for our dog! She took very good care of her, and also allowed us to extend our dog’s stay due to airport weather delays. I highly recommend Jody, and am so thankful we found her!”
“Julie and Tom did an amazing job watching my senior pup. I was in a pinch and needed someone to help last minute. My dog is almost 16 and needs a lot of assistance including being carried around (he’s a lab/Weimaraner mix). I was worried about leaving him but they sent me tons of updates, pictures, and videos. My pup was actually so comfortable there he almost didn’t want to leave when I came to pick him up. Thank you so much for what you do! You are appreciated!”

“Swagata is one of the best pet lover and sitter in Chicago area. She entertained an early drop off before my travel. Took care of my cat the most caring and loving way. She assured my cat’s comfort and provided treat for my cat’s teeth clean regularly as complementary. She had lot of toys in her place. The stay of my cat was a great learning experience for my cat health and hygiene as well. I would love to find her again for my cat boarding and highly recommend her as your best pet sitter and wish her success endeavor.”

Elisa is truly caring nature, and I felt totally at ease leaving my baby with her. She treats your dog like it’s part of her own family, and on top of that, her home is spotless! She also kept me posted with texts and photos though out each day. I will continue working with Elisa and happy I found her and Fiona (her dog). ✨✨✨
Yolanda and her Husband are great. Hunter felt right at home and loved. They asked for suggestions when needed and assisted when I suggested hand feeding cuz hunter wouldn't eat. I was able to go camping and know hunter was being cared for like he was home with his momma. They even provided picture updates. Will definitely recommend and return.
