House Sitting in Highland Park

“Winderful sitter. Very caring and attentive to my senior dogs. Always communicative throughout her stay so you never have to worry about your pets.”

“Kim is THE BEST! She house sat and took care of our dog Lila (120 lbs) and was beyond what we had hoped for. She sent pictures and updates multiple times every day and our shy girl absolutely loved her. We will absolutely be using her again in the future. Cannot recommend her enough”

Clay E.

“Katherine was such a great help for us when we went to Japan. She provided many pictures and updates and took the puppies on many walks. I plan on booking her in the future.”

“Emilie is the perfect sitter for my cat Bunny! I really wanted to find someone who Bunny felt comfortable with and who I could trust to look after her, and I am so, so glad I found Emilie. Emilie has the best energy and they are kind, attentive, and caring to both my cat and the space. Having someone I trust in my home to look after my cat as well as the peace of mind I felt while I was away is deeply invaluable to me. And I love that Bunny now has a new friend! I just got home and Bunny is so relaxed and calm- it just reaffirms that choosing Emilie was the right and best choice. Already booked them for another weekend!”

“William went above and beyond taking care of Hazel while we were out of the country for a week. He kept us posted with regular updates and followed our instructions to a T. Hazel is a relatively high-maintenance dog and William followed our instructions carefully during his time with her. He took her on neighborhood hikes to keep her active and sent us daily pics to keep us at ease that she was being well taken care of. Responsible and reliable, I highly recommend William for dog sitting / house sitting.”

“Avery was so great with my senior gals that require a lot of care and attention. She also took great care of my home while I was away and was very communicative throughout the stay.”

“Excellent! She took care of my puppy like it was her own daughter, taught her new tricks and games and now she loves her more than me LOL! If you want to book a sitter or someone to watch your pet, look no further!”

About: If you’re looking for someone who absolutely adores animals AND is responsible/ reliable then I am your gal! I have a profound love and respect for any animal and would love to share my services/experience with you! I’ve been surrounded by animals since I was in diapers and have developed such a deep respect and love for any pet I’ve come across. I’ve had cats, dogs, birds, hamsters, fish, you name it! I’ve raised the majority of them from their baby stage such as their puppy/kitten stage. I also have had the pleasure of giving them a beautiful life and led them into their senior stage. I also volunteer at cat shelters and have pet sat for friends and family members. I make it a priority to provide a safe and welcoming environment so any pet under my care can feel comfortable with me. I also love to play for whatever time your pet needs and give joy to every pet under my care. My past clients would describe me as very reliable, patient, warm, and very flexible and understanding of certain needs your pet may have. I understand every furry friend is unique and different from one another so any accommodation or request you may have, I am more than open to adjusting! I currently have three of my own. I have a husky, shih tzu and a Siamese cat! So I have a very broad experience with different sized pets and I’ve enjoyed every second of it. I have a very open and flexible schedule and I would love to provide my services to you! As I work with the local district, I have returned back to work for the fall semester. However, my work day ends at 3pm! So it still allows me to have a very open/flexible schedule. I can do weekdays after 3pm and weekends including holidays! I’m available from early noon to late at night. Weekends include anytime after 6pm. I have a gated porch with lots of room for play and a quiet calm neighborhood for long walks and quality time with your pet. I can also administer medication and crate or provide any instructions left by the owner.

About: What sets me apart is how deeply I tune into each pet. I'm an empathetic and thoughtful caregiver — I read the subtle cues and anticipate what a dog needs before they have to ask. I genuinely care for every pet as if they were my own. I also have hands-on experience with: • Puppies (patience, potty training, basic commands) • Senior pets (gentle handling, mobility support, medication routines) • Basic training reinforcement After decades of pet sitting on the side and loving every minute, I've learned that the little things — a calm voice, a predictable routine, noticing when something feels off — make all the difference. Pet care is my full-time focus. My daily routine revolves entirely around the pets I'm caring for. A typical day starts early — morning walks, feeding, and medication if needed. Throughout the day, I schedule playtime and rest according to each pet's rhythm. Evenings are for settling everyone in, sending updates to owners, and prepping for the next day. Because this is my only job, I'm fully present; No juggling meetings or rushing off to a desk. Your pet gets my complete attention. I care for pets in my own home. I've created a calm, pet-friendly space where dogs feel safe and comfortable while you're away. Here's what that looks like: • My home is clean, secure, and set up with pets in mind (no hazards, plenty of cozy spots) • I follow your pet's regular schedule — feeding, walks, potty breaks, medication, and rest • I only take a small number of pets at a time, so each one gets individual attention • I send daily photos and updates so you can see exactly how they're doing For safety, I'm careful about introductions between pets, keep the environment calm, and never leave pets unsupervised in risky situations. Your pet's well-being is my full-time focus.

“Kelsey was a caring, responsive, and capable sitter! Our cat is a tad old but Kelsey was great with giving him meds and all the love he needed (or demanded lol). She made our time away worry-free. Absolutely recommend her services!”

John K.

“Highly recommend Brooke! She’s our go to sitter and she truly cares about our three dogs and always leaves our house so clean. Thank you Brooke!”

Christine J.

“Stephen did an amazing job with Kisho! It was very clear from the beginning the amount Stephen cared for Kisho's well being and happiness He tackled any small issues that came up, and greatly communicated through out. Having peace of mind when leaving your pup is a priceless feeling. We will be definitely be using Stephen going ahead.”

“JAMIE IS THE BEST ROVER I HAVE EVER HAD!!! I’ve had my cat for ten years, and have used rover many times. But Jamie? She’s different. My cat is very particular, high needs sweet boy who needs meds three times a day. He is very attached to me, and leaving him is difficult for both of us. But the moment he met Jamie? He was smitten. She sent me a video of him purring next time her. Genuinely? He’s in love. Jamie was communicative, kind, and so very good to my boy. She is now our go-to sitter. Best rover I have ever had!!!”

Paulina P.

“I was totally stressed out about leaving my two senior cats while I took an extended trip, but Sarah and David were great and I was able to relax and enjoy knowing my girls were in good hands. I also loved getting the daily pictures.”

Lisa R.

“Ruby was great watching our puppy Bob! She followed instructions and played with him so well. He was very happy and tired when we got back home.”

Ashleigh H.

“Karli watched our puppy for the weekend. It’s the first time we had left her with a new person and she did phenomenal. She stayed at our home and left the house in perfect condition. She was responsive, friendly, responsible, and most importantly our puppy loved her. Highly recommend, thanks Karli!”

Kimberly T.

“Alexis is professional, communicative, and detail-oriented. All of these qualities eased my nerves when my pup was in her care. Ivy’s looking forward to the next time!”

Eva S.

“Amanda was a great pet sitter! She watched our 3 dogs and 1 cat like a pro. I felt very happy knowing all my fur babies were in her care. We can’t wait to have her back.”

Christine K.

“Wendy has been fantastic with my Charlie! He’s been going through an adjustment period in his life and has been a little shy, but she’s been so patient and understanding with him. Such a kind person! 🙂”

About: I'm fortunate to have cared for animals since childhood and find true joy in treating others pets as my own. Family, friends and neighbors have relied on my consistency, responsibility and compassion when they need someone to look after their babies. I am very comfortable with multiple animals, senior care and challenging personalities. I am able to remain calm in chaos and understand the importance of communication. My three-year old German Shepherd mix, Pharaoh, keeps me on my toes and engaged with the latest in pet parent world! Currently in between jobs which allows me to be flexible depending on the needs of the client and their pets. While I do have my own boy dog, Pharaoh, our routine can be adjusted without issue. I will follow the exact instructions needed and am very communicative in terms of sending photos, videos and ensuring there are no disruptions to a pets routine. I have a deep understanding of how important consistency is to building trust with an animal and will do everything required to make sure both the client and their baby feel safe and at peace.
