“Linda and Michael were absolutely great! They were so easy to communicate with and took fantastic care of our girls! We also got great pictures on each of their visits. I would highly recommend them to anyone and will definitely be using their services again!”


“What a fantastic experience! Marissa looked over my two cats during our extended honeymoon stay. Marissa was so easy to work with and allowed us to add four additional days onto our honeymoon thanks to her flexibility and professionalism. I truly cannot give a high enough rating for the experience and piece of mind she provided.”


“Deidre came to the rescue when our plans fell through for our dog last minute- she was able to come care for and let him out for a few days! She sent lots of pictures- and took good care of him.”


About: I've had pets for ages, cats & dogs. Right now I don't have any, home is lacking! I have a special heart for smaller dogs! Right now, I'm working from home part time. So am pretty flexible watching your pet. My preference is to have your pet here in my home. I have a large fenced in back yard, dogs seem to love roaming in it! I prefer to crate at night and have always crated my dog when leaving home. I find dogs seem more secure when crated.

“Nicole was amazing!! Our son was getting married so we needed someone to check in, they had a full water bowl when we got back late at night and it all went off without any issues!! Nicole is a keeper!!”


“Maddie is great! We have hired her for two vacations now, she is reliable for check-ins with my group of kittens and takes photos to let us know they’re doing well. We will definitely be using Maddie again in the future!”


“Morgan did a great job caring for Mr. Thick Whiskers. She provided helpful daily updates and found a new hiding spot for his food after it became apparent that we have an acrobat cat. I would highly recommend her.”


“Maia and Brent did a fabulous job taking care of our 2 boys (ie. our cats) while our regular pet sitter was out of town. We appreciated the flexibility of booking last minute for a holiday week. She was very professional and showed great knowledge when we introduced her to our dog (who we were taking with us on our trip). We won’t hesitate to leave all of them with her in the future. She sent us photos with updates at each check-in and even hunted down a missing package in our mailbox to bring it inside for us.”


“Manda was awesome! She kept me up-to-date on her visits and how my cat was eating (even sent me pics of his food bowl). She took the time to talk to him and make him feel more comfortable. Usually my cat does not eat when I am away, so this was reassuring to me! I highly recommend Manda for your pet(s) - she cares for them as if they were her own!”


About: I have taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember. Family, friends and neighbors have trusted me to take great care of their fur babies and I have always loved doing so! No dog is too big or too small I currently work full time mostly night shifts so my obscure schedule will allow to me to do late night or early morning pet sitting ! I can always try to accommodate to some day sitting. I can easily learn feeding and walking schedules. I have experience giving vitamins/medications. If your fur baby needs any special care I am happy to help.

“Joanie was wonderful dropping in to take care of my cat. She's very dependable and sent many pictures and detailed reports so I knew how my girl was doing. Kitty was relaxed and happy when I got home so I know Joanie was very kind to her.”


About: I've worked at a few different clinics and shelters throughout the years. I foster for the local shelter and help friends with their fur babies! I work full time during the day, but work 5 min away from my home and I can go check on things throughout the day. I have a house with a fenced yard. I have a cat that sticks to herself mostly. I have foster dogs coming and going. I use gates to separate if needed

About: We have been watching dogs for over 10 years now and have been the “go to” person for excellent dog care. We began when we were both 13 watching friend’s dogs while they left for extended vacations. We’ve watched dogs for 4 months while the family moved down south temporarily. We have also been trained with multiple sizes and breeds of dogs as well as many ages of dogs. We both were working as part time dog walker/sitters in Chicago while we attended school. I (Isaac) have owned three dogs in my lifetime. I have owned a golden retriever, a golden lab, and a golden retriever/lab mix. We both are available in the evenings and on Saturdays. Special skills would be keeping your dog entertained and loved. We take our job seriously and want to ensure the greatest safety when watching dogs! I only work at most 7 hours a day for 5 days a week. I have a wife who stays at home and is willing to take over when needed. She also has 10 years of experience with dogs and is a certified dog walker. I have a standard golden doodle which we keep on a fairly strict schedule. We make sure he gets tons of rest, make sure he eats what he needs to eat, and exercise the amount required for his breed and age. We always make sure that objects in the house that could potentially be of harm to him are kept away and if we do have to leave the house, he always is put inside his kennel after being let out to use the restroom. We always have save time throughout the day to train and time to play. I have a part time job on the side so if I cannot be there to care for the dogs during their set schedules my wife is also a certified rover sitter. Our main priority is to take care of our clients animals and make sure they stick with their schedules! We always make sure they are given proper amounts of food, water, and of course daily exercise and mind exercises. This of course varies on the dog, but we like to stick with our clients recommendations on how they like to keep their dogs healthy.

“Alex was great! I felt completely comfortable leaving my dogs with him. Knowing he had dog training experience gave me peace of mind while I was out of town. And he was great with both of them - even my high energy pup that doesn't always take to strangers. He took to Alex right away!”


About: I have always loved animals and love to meet everyone’s fur babies! I have two dogs who have anxiety. One who is reactive so I’m familiar with fur babies who may be nervous around new people. I can be patient and calm to help your baby feel more safe. I also have a cat name Georgie. I have experience with reptiles if you need any help with those. I work remotely so have more flexibility for drop ins and walking. I can also do overnight stays if required. I would love to be able to spend time with your fur babies I am willing to go to your home so your dog feels safe in their environment and able to do walks in parks or around your neighborhood.
