Pet Sitting in Hinsdale

“Jen is an absolute gem! She has been caring for our pups three times a week, and I couldn’t be happier. Her love and attention for them are unmatched. Every visit is like a little spa day for our fur babies—they are always happy, relaxed, and well-cared-for when we get home. Jen is reliable, professional, and has a special way of making my dogs feel loved. Highly recommend her to anyone who wants peace of mind and happy pets!”

“I have a high maintenance, rescue cat who is not nice to anyone. But he loves Cara! I am so glad I found her. She is very personable, trusting, and knows how to work well with cats. I highly recommend her!”

“Joey is amazing with all my animals. My Cane Corso takes special introducing and not everyone I introduce him to takes the job. He liked Joey from the first day. I actually have a little farmstead with several types of animals, including a horse, a goat, an emu, over 50 chickens and other types of fowl. I even feed some of the wildlife! Joey does all of it. I get great pics and I'm always so happy with the detailed list he leaves of all the chores and extras that he does. He even remembers things that I forget to mention sometimes! Number one call for me all the time is Joey. Besides, he gave me a very reasonable farmstead rate. I highly recommend this sitter, especially if you have animals not listed on Rover!”

“Sydnee was wonderful! The cats were exceptionally well cared for, and happy. We have never left our cats with a sitter and felt at ease and confident in their care as we did with Sydnee. The cats sensed her genuine love for animals, too. They have never been as taken with a sitter as they were with Sydnee. The photos she provided are beautiful. The reports were so real and personally directed to our cats that we felt as if we were there with them. She did exactly what we asked and so much more. When we returned home after a week away, the house looked great! Nothing about the house was mentioned in our request. However, she took great care to clean up after the cats. Everything was clean and neat. More importantly, the cats looked and acted great! They were well fed, meds administered as required and mostly they were loved. So, we returned to happy kitties. Not the nervous cats we find after other pet sitters. Sydnee is exceptional. I can’t say enough good things. Just know that she is everything you want in a pet sitters, and so much more.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all kinds through years of rescue volunteering and truly love all dogs. I also have some years personal assisting so I have experience being in people’s homes and respect the trust that requires. I’m currently working part time from home so I have lots of time for your pets! I’m available for boarding any day of the week the times are negotiable I live in a ranch style home so not a lot of stairs to navigate, I have a large yard that I can walk your dog in, and I have no other pets or children in the home so your dog gets all of my attention.

About: I offer pet photography! I am a photographer and would love to get your dog professional photos while I am pet sitting. I’ve had animals my entire childhood. We have never been without a dog in our home. I am experienced in dog walking, over night stays, check ins, and belly rubs! I am currently not working so I will have all the time to care for your dogs any day! Weekdays or weekends I will be there for your pup! I will follow any directions you give me based on your dogs needs. I am very rule oriented so anything you have to do for your pup will be done by me!

About: I have never not had animals in my life, I have 2 dogs, 2 cats, a fish, chickens, turkeys, and ducks. From dogs to ducks, I can do it all! I would love to take care of your furry and feathery family! All day every day I am living with and taking care of my animals, it is simply a way of life! Whether it's feeding, cuddling, bathing, or playing there is always an animal within arms reach. While I am taking care of your pet in your home I will respect your rules and your space. I will do my best to keep your pets comfortable and happy.

About: I grew up with family dogs, cats, lizards, rats, etc. Basically we always had pets in the house! Huge animal & dog lover of all shapes & sizes. I've raised two puppies on my own, so have experience with young dogs and training. I have one dog, Kinley, at home and I'd definitely adopt more if I could afford it! Foster to adopt lots & lots of pups would be an awesome retirement plan. So I'm trying to live vicariously through you and visit with all the amazing breeds out there. I love to go to the dog park and test my breed knowledge! I have a fenced back yard and a lot of walking trails around my house. Kinley loves other dogs and would enjoy the company!

“Elizabeth is capable and friendly, and easy to communicate with. She clearly knows how to care for animals, and my two dogs and cat took to her right away. I feel secure in leaving my pets in her care.”

About: Spent my adult life loving on others’ pets to make them feel at home when their humans can’t be there. Currently have 4 parrots and 2 guinea pigs of my own but have previously had dogs, cats and exotic fish. I currently work 7-3 Monday to Friday. When allowing me to watch your pets they would be taken care of before work then directly after. Home evenings and all day availability on weekends. I ask pet parents to write down your fur kids daily schedule so that I can keep to the routine as much as possible while you’re gone.

About: I quickly became a dog mom when my partner moved into my house with his 5 year old dog Sampson. I fell in love with our daily walks in the field behind our house, as well as having something to take care of in the house. Sampson listens, he is a dog I can walk off leash and the best cuddle buddy. Because of his good nature I soon found myself growing our family by the addition of two puppies. Hank was our first pup - he is a Great pyreenes mixed with a Bernese Mountain Dog. Think fluffy, slobbery, and 140 pounds. I wasn't sure how a big dog and myself would get along but I found his size comforting. Stella was a dog we failed at fostering. She is a smaller terrier mix and is teaching me the true purpose of crates and leashes. I learn every day how to be better for my dogs. It is chaotic, messy and unpredictable living with three dogs but I wouldn't change it for anything. I am by no means a perfect dog owner but I understand the complexities and uniqueness of each dog and their personalities. I rely on being consistent and predictable for my dogs so they continue to trust me to take care of them. Their health and happiness is my priority. I am a school teacher. When school is in session I am free after 5pm. When we are on break for holidays or summer, I am free anytime. At my house, I don't have a fenced in yard but we have over 20 acres to walk. I am comfortable walking dogs on a leash. I have a crate for a medium to small sized dog and an outdoor "doggio" for warmer days or if a furry friend wants some time outdoors relaxing. I have three dogs, one of which is a very large and enjoys rough housing with other dogs. We have lots of toys and a house that that continues to become dog proof. We let our dogs on the couches and they have a large living room to play in.

About: My family owned an animal kennel rescue for a few years. It has given me very useful knowledge of what to do in emergency situations. It gives me a respect for the animal(s). I have had to act quickly before when an animal was hit by a car or bitten by another animal. So as drastic as those two things are I just want you to know I have been in those types of situations so if anything would happen to your fur baby I am ready to respond. I will go above and beyond to make sure your little baby comes home just as happy if not happier. I know how being away from mom/dad can make them sad. I want the owners to enjoy their trip or their day at work to the best of their abilities and not have to worry if their pet is being taken care of correctly. No more wondering, book me!! I look forward in meeting your pet. I am currently a full stay at home pet mom so I am here to watch your pet any time of day any day of week. We have a fair size yard for the dogs to play in. Some is fenced in and we are working on getting the rest of it enclosed. I do allow pets on the furniture. I will respect your rules though. I don’t want the animals to get confused. As long as they didn’t just play in a mud puddle, We will continue to follow your rules. I do not want them to get confused when it times to go back home or for you to come home. I will respect anything you would want me to follow. I am a very easy going person. And we look forward in meeting your pet.
