House Sitting in Highland Park

“Hadija did a great job taking care of our precious Max. She arrived promptly on time and followed all of our instructions. She communicated with us regularly by sending us updates as well as pictures and videos of Max. Max enjoyed playing fetch with her and it seemed like he really took to her. I would certainly recommend Hadija to take care of your pets.”

“Gianna was fantastic. The pups took right to her. She has the perfect energy for a pet sitter. We all felt calmer when Gianna was in the house. LOL.”

About: I have been dog sitting in different capacities since I was in high school. I started off dog sitting for family and neighbors and now have a base of returning clients, one of which has show dogs. I have even been hired by the IWCA (Irish Wolfhound Club of America) to watch puppies and walk dogs at an international show. I have a base knowledge for training basic skills such as sit, down, stay, come and so on. I also have some experience working with reactive dogs and will work at their pace. Bottom line, I will love your fur babies like they're my fur babies! I work full time, but I am usually home by 4 pm so evenings and weekends are when I am most available. I can be flexible though! My calendar is currently open through 2025. If you want to book in advance for 2026, please message me and I will let you know if I can accommodate your dates! In my home, it's the dogs house and I just live there lol! I understand that how I train my dogs and the rules in my house don't work for everyone. When I am sitting for you, I will follow your rules and guidance for how you want your home run. My number one concern is safety followed closely by respect. Additionally, if you're a new dog owner looking for some guidance I am more than happy to help out where I can!

“Eleanor was wonderful with my 3 dogs. She sent lots of pictures. The girls were happy and well taken care of. They got plenty of outdoor time and playtime with Eleanor. Would highly recommend Eleanor”

“I hired Laura for the first time 10 days ago based on her reviews on the spur of the moment to house and dogsit for four days/nights. I left detailed instructions and received pics of my pooch every day. No problems, no questions, smooth as silk. Happy dog. House in order. What could be better. A very very nice, dog- loving person.”

“Vivian is a rockstar! She did such a thorough job house sitting our two dogs and cat while we traveled. We got so many adorable photos, and so much communication including a daily detailed “pupdate”! I will definitely be booking Vivian again! A+++++!!!!”

About: I've had pets all my life ranging from fish, hamsters, frogs, cats and dogs. They have all taught me appreciation towards companionship and the joys of being a pet owner. I have around 5 years of experience pet sitting for family and friends. I am also an Eagle Scout who loves the outdoors, so taking your dog(s) for a walk or to the park would be my pleasure. I'm currently working part time in the morning of weekdays. I am free to take care of your pets after 12 pm and anytime during the weekends. At home, I take care of my cat Pepe where i attentively pet him when he shows affection. I feed him 3 times a day and clean his litter box everyday. For when i watch your pet, I will love and care for it as if were my own. I have experience caring for and walking dogs in the past 5 years for family, friends and past roomates.

“After I leave this review everyone will want to use him and he might not have anytime left for me. LOL Compassionate, intelligent and an obvious animal lover.I don't know what I would have done without his help..... On the morning of my daughters wedding my dog (Marzipan) out of nowhere and right before I had leave,started showing signs of pain and dicomfort. Mike calmed me down and actually took her to the vet for me. Unbelievable. I would never use anyone else. Thank Mike.”

About: Just know that with me - they will get plenty of cuddles and lots of belly rubs! Dogs are not just our pets I consider them family! I was truly blessed to have taken care of not one but two amazing family members who have since gone to doggy heaven. I had taken care of Scoobs from the day he was born until his very last breath when he was 15 years old so I do have experience with senior dogs. It brightens up my day to see the joy on their face as I walk through the door. I truly have missed that so I can't wait to take care of your fur-baby and I will treasure them and love them as if they were my very own. I am currently on a hybrid schedule with work so my available days to care for your dog would be on Mondays, Thursdays and Fridays. I also do not mind the weekends if I am needed. In your home I will make sure that they are always safe and make sure that they feel truly comfortable with me. I will honestly care for them as if they were my very own.

“We had such a great experience with Toni! She took amazing care of our 3-month-old puppy, Frank, who is full of energy and can definitely be a bit chaotic. She followed all of our instructions perfectly, was on time, and super sweet with him. We got regular updates throughout the night, which gave us so much peace of mind. You can really tell she loves animals. Would absolutely recommend and will definitely book her again!”

About: I grew up in a home filled with animals, which gave me a deep understanding and love for pet care. Over the years, I’ve helped friends and family care for their pets, including dogsitting for my uncle’s dog, who experiences seizures. This experience has made me comfortable handling pets with special needs and providing attentive, compassionate care. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or looking after pets with unique requirements, I treat every animal like my own. I'm currently a server at an Italian restaurant, working part-time, trying to save up money for my college tuition. My availability fluctuates, however I will always find time to care for our furry friends! I have a fenced, nicely sized yard and a quiet, small lab/border collie mixed dog to keep your pups company. I also can provide crates if needed

“The dogs love Aly! They had a great time with her! A+++”

About: I am a former dog owner and current cat mom. Growing up, we had a 100 lb Labrador that I was responsible for feeding, and walking. He could pull too! Now, I help out with my grandma’s chihuahua and I have a sweet cat, Brick. I am new to being a sitter, however, I love all animals and have cared for a variety of different fur-legged friends. I currently work remotely which allows me plenty of flexibility with my day. My apartment is too small for a dog, so I am really looking forward to being able to spend time taking care of dogs while helping out their owners. I look forward to walking and playing with your dog to help them expend their energy while you are away. I am very good with time management, so they will always be fed on time. I am not afraid of a little tussle, so I they need to go to the vet for any reason, I can easily have them in the crate and ready to go.

“Anibet was Amazing.. I really appreciated how she always check-ins to keep me up to date with pictures and videos. Fendi was loving her ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Highly recommend”

“Deni did a wonderful job taking care of our large hound dog Margo and our home while we were away for 10 days. Margo can be fussy about who she likes, and Deni took the time to get to know Margo ahead of time, taking her for weekly walks, to make sure she was comfortable before we left. We got daily pictures and everything worked out fine. Deni even took care of an unexpected spring water delivery for us, putting out the empty and bringing in the full jugs. I had not one worry about my pooch while we were on vacation thanks to Deni. And my home was in tip top shape when we came back. I highly recommend Deni for your pet care needs.”

About: Your dog will be loved while you’re away by someone who is communicative, experienced, and has handled all kinds of emergency situations. I’ve been raising guide dog puppies since 2015 and am well-versed in all things dogs. I have experience with all personalities and temperaments, basic training and exposure, administrating medicine, and basic medical care. Having helped raise over a dozen guide dog puppies, I’m experienced in all things puppy-raising including housebreaking, teaching beginner’s obedience, and manners. I’ve also worked with special needs dogs such as those with trauma, post-surgical care, and special medical administration. Pups are my favorite part of my schedule, so I’ll usually try to work around pup-times, making sure all needs are taken care of throughout the day. I often work virtually so I can check in and spend time with your pups, and like to schedule outings to be animal-friendly as much as possible, so that they can come with me. When it comes to your home, I will take your lead, and be as respectful as possible. Please show me your/your pet’s preferences and I’ll adhere to those wherever I can. I believe in building our relationship with trust and explicit communication. You are sharing your precious companions and home with me, and I cherish that so much. I will take good care of them so that you feel assured that they’re in good hands. I do have a German shepherd that is a career change from The Seeing Eye program, and a friendly and very gentle cat. They can come with me or stay at our home with my partner, depending on your preference.

About: I love walks, movies, reading and hiking - especially with dogs and cats! Looking to give out some belly rubs and help my community take care of their furry family members I work a hybrid work schedule so I have lots of time spent at home and looking to go for some walks! Sometimes I work at a restaurant at night, but I am incredibly flexible. Well Jazzy steals my pillows and my bed, has a set feeding schedule, and expects dog park dates every weekend - so her will is my command lol she gets dog treats whenever she’s a good girl and new dog toys after they get destroyed (which is too often for my pockets - hence a new part time needed).

“Thank you Allison for staying at my place over the weekend. The dogs were in great care and I had no worries at all while being away! Very attentive, provides updates, and overall caring ! Had a great experience with Allison watching my 2 crazy doggos!”
