House Sitting in Island Lake

“Megan was amazing and so sweet. She was so great with our pups and took the time to send us pictures and updates. Everything at our house was tidy and our pups were so happy! I’d love to use Megan again in the future.”

“Alexia is absolutely amazing! She went above and beyond while house sitting for us! Our Shadow girl was one happy girl when we got home! House was extremely clean and she even did some house work before we got home! Everyone needs a sitter like Alexia! I could go on and on! But I’ll just leave it at this… HIRE HER! I promise she’s amazing!”

“Ashlee was terrific! I would trust her with Skuttles again without hesitation. She kept me informed and my dog was happy and healthy when I returned home. Ashlee also left my home in great shape.”

“Jeanne is a fantastic pet sitter! She looked after our dog, cat, and birds for several days while we were away. She checked in each night to let me know when she arrived, sent pictures, and walked/played with our pets. Jeanne was easy to communicate with and very professional. She definitely understands dogs and cats! I highly recommend Jeanne!!”

“Taylor took care of my pup and the house perfectly! Received some stellar photos and some videos of bud, and coming home he seems to be well care. Thank you, Taylor.”

“Lauren was absolutely amazing. She took great care of our girls and our home. I highly recommend her and we will be booking again in the future.”

About: I’ve found that pets love massages as much as people do, so I will often give them when I notice they enjoy it. Aside from my own pets, I’ve been taking care of my family’s and friend’s dogs for years. I work part-time, so I can be pretty flexible. As long as I am able to take care of my dog when she needs me, I am free to take care of your loved ones. I can do anything reasonable that’s expected of me while I am working in a client’s home; long walks, baths, feeding, playtime, administering medicine, etc.

“Indre was extremely flexible with her scheduling and was great with the boys. They obviously claimed her while we were gone and everything went smoothly. The house was in great shape when we returned home and”

“Megan is extremely compassionate and is willing to go the extra mile in terms of understanding your pets needs and making sure they are well cared for while you are away. She treats any animals in her care like they are a part of her family, with kindness and love. Would definitely recommend Megan!”

“Haley is a phenomenal dog caregiver and genuine animal lover! She’s helped take care of my two dogs numerous times and they absolutely adore her. Always keeps in touch to tell me how they’re doing and would even send cute pictures. Overall she’s everything you could hope for in a host/sitter.”

“My Puggle Sammy LOVES Brooke and staying with her. She has dog sat Sam at my home and hers, and he’s always accommodated and comfortable. He’s a senior and has a solid exercise and eating routine, and she goes above and beyond! The first day/night she took a lot of time to communicate his adjustment and routine as well as give him an anti anxiety massage, which is such a sweet touch. They play and hang out and she always makes sure he has what he needs. We always go to Brooke first!”

About: Hello! *I currently work at a Petsmart Pethotel where I work overnights mostly, I also work day shifts at times where I am in the play rooms supervising up to 16 dogs at once. My responsibilities vary! I've grown up with dogs my whole life and being surrounded by creatures that love you unconditionally is a beautiful thing. Personally, i love to exercise and run frequently and running with a dog is such a delight, watching them have fun is probably the most rewarding part of interacting with them. I love working hard, and leading by example. Being able to work with dogs is a huge passion of mine. I really appreciate your time and thank you for taking a peak at my profile, hope to see you soon! Petcare is an important part of my life because I work at a pet hotel, I work with dogs on a daily basis! I also have two dogs of my own, raising them and looking after them has been some of the most rewarding work I've ever done. I care for my pets by making sure they get appropriate exercise and exposure to other dogs. I have a 100 pound German Shepherd/Husky and he does very well in public. I've socialized him well, as well as taken him to training classes. I make sure they have the proper equipment/toys. I try to expose them as much as I can to the world, I take them to pet friendly stores etc.

“Rachelle was very patient with my dog, my dog is a challenge to get to know. She hung in their and made friends quickly. She sent photos daily. Would use her again for sure.”

“Dayna is AMAZING!!! She is a true animal lover. We have a 15 year old black lab and a 6 year old chihuahua mix, both pups with much different needs and personalities. Dayna takes the time and goes above and beyond to make sure my babies are well taken care of. Dayna is the only person outside of our family that we trust to care for our sweet fur babies.”

She loves spending time with her pups, and provides a very enrichment filled environment; she is constantly teaching her pups new things! She has watched my dogs several times, and I am always confident that my pups will be taken great care of.”
