House Sitting in Hyde Park, Chicago

“Emily dog/housesat for me, and I can’t thank her enough for coming to my rescue. She was communicative, updated me throughout the day. I appreciated that she took initiative to do a meet and greet with my pup prior to booking. She is thoughtful in the questions she asks and is very attentive to the needs of my pup. I will definitely be calling her again in the future! Thank you Emily!!!”

“Shakira is amazing! I feel like she's part of the family. She did an amazing job looking after my Maltipoo, Dash! She sent plenty of pictures and videos throughout the day. I really appreciate the way she made both me and Dash feel comfortable. Before she left, I had already booked her for another sitting for Dash. She's the best!”

“Alexa did a wonderful job taking care of our dog in our home over a long holiday weekend. She was communicative, made sure Beau got his walks and play time, left our home clean and our dog happy. She followed our instructions on everything and asked questions when she wasn’t sure about something. We hope our dog wasn’t too crazy for her, but we would gladly welcome her back! So grateful we found Alexa.”

“Abi was wonderful!! So respectful of our home and our dog was well loved while we were away!”

“My cat sitter cancelled on me at the last minute. But as it turns out I was meant to find Belicia. She took excellent care of my girl Zuri. Belicia was communicative, kind, and followed all instructions. She sent me messages and photos to absolve any worry and it didn't take long for my anti-social kitty to take to her. Having her care for Zuri was such a peace of mind. When I came back home, I realize that everything worked out as it should have. This is the beginning, as I will be scheduling with Belicia again.”

“Sarah took very good care of our 3 spoiled babies, and took care of our house. We recommend her and will definitely be using her again in the future!!”

“Jasmine was amazing yet again with my dobie, Storm. I had some last minute emergency changes to my trip and her flexibility and understanding really put me at ease during a stressful time, I'm so grateful for her support! Super communicative, Jasmine took great care of my girl and my place too. Also, Storm is reactive to other dogs and I trust Jasmine to know how to deal with that. Highly recommend.”

“Elizabeth was so great! We were able to meet before the house sitting and went over the specifics of my dog. She gave me daily updates and let me know he was doing well which I really appreciated!! I would definitely book again ?”

“Roman was such a great sitter! Arthur was very comfortable around him. Roman was very thoughtful and caring and made sure to send us photos and videos of Arthur while we were away. Would definitely recommend!”

“Dominic is an avowed and passionate animal lover. He is a very gentle, calm, astute, reliable, and friendly man, and animals take to him very well. He has taken care of my cats and my dog (before he died), as well as the pets of some of my friends. He is affectionate and firm as well as responsible.”

“Daniel was great, he’s very reliable and was flexible when I had to make last minute changes. He also comes across as professional and level headed. My dog seemed to be in good spirits when we got back as well.”

“Raeanna house sat for us during Thanskgiving. She fed the cats and left our house the way we left it. Only giving her 4 stars because she came late (6.5 hours after the booking time) and left earlier than the booking time - she did ask me if she could leave early.”

“Alexis was an excellent dog sitter. She played with Nellie and gave her long walks every day that she watched her. She also provided regular and helpful updates with pictures and descriptions. I would trust her to watch my pets anytime!”

“Samantha was great! She really saved us when we were put in a bind by a last minute cancellation by another sitter. She sent us daily updates and pictures of our pups, and endured their puppy energy. We came home to a clean house and happy puppies. We would definitely book Samantha again!”

“Taylor was a great dog sitter for GiGi! She sent photos and made sure she was well taken care of. I would highly recommend Taylor for any pet sitting services!”

“Dear Rover I am writing to wholeheartedly recommend Julia Lambert-Gilliam for any future opportunities. Julia volunteered at Tree House Humane Society every Sunday from 2013 to 2022, where I had the pleasure of working alongside her. During her time with us, Julia demonstrated exceptional dedication, compassion, and responsibility. She took initiative in assisting with various tasks, including helping out at the cafe, supporting visitors, and occasionally lending a hand with cleaning and feeding our feline residents. Her commitment to ensuring the cats' well-being and providing a positive experience for visitors was truly impressive. What struck me most about Julia was her exceptional intelligence, respectfulness, and kindness. She consistently demonstrated a willingness to learn and grow, asking thoughtful questions and seeking feedback. Julia would be a valuable asset to any organization. I highly recommend her for any opportunity, and I am confident that she will make a positive impact. Please feel free to contact me if you require further information. Sincerely, Laura L Poupart Shelter Shift Leader”

“Emma and Emily were wonderful to work with and very communicative while we were away. Our dog and our home were very well cared for. We look forward to working with them again for our next trip!”

“Jamie was lovely. Attentive towards my sick and disabled senior dog, Papito. He was more than willing to do a meet-and-greet, took pictures of Papito, was understanding of his daily needs, and asked questions to better understand my pup's nonverbals. Home was tidy upon my return, which was a welcomed plus. Would work with Jamie again!”
