Rebecca was great! I felt very at ease and confident that my dog was in good hands while I was away. The pictures at each drop in visit were awesome. I would definitely rebook with Rebecca!

This was our first time using a pet sitting service and I was very nervous about leaving our dogs. I chose Jeanne because of her location, positive feedback, and repeat client base. She did not disappoint! On our initial meet and greet, she arrived right on time and spent one hour getting to know my pups, taking notes, and reassuring me they would be fine. One of the things I liked best were the check-ins...I knew exactly when she arrived and left. Pictures were included as well as updates on how they were doing. When we arrived back home, my dogs were happy, healthy, and there was a 2 page summary of her time with them. Jeanne is great to work with...flexible and very knowledgeable about dogs. We will definitely use her again!

Chris was amazing, and I’d highly recommend him to anyone needing dog sitting. My pups took to him immediately, and got excited when he’d come over to walk them. They really enjoyed the special attention he gave them, and he was great at giving me updates during my very long business trip. I felt my dogs were in the best hands! Thanks, Chris!!

Sarah is amazing! She communicated thoroughly and updated me with what my pets were up to during her visits. She understood that one of my cats is very shy, but still made sure to find her and ensure she was safe even if that cat didn’t want to interact :) I will definitely be booking Sarah again in the future.

Dayna is fantastic. My dogs really liked her. She was extremely flexible as my plans changed several times. She sent lots of pictures and let me know what was happening with my fur babies every step of the way. I will definitely trust my babies with her in the near future. Highly recommend her.

About: I have 3 years of working in the pet care industry on top of having dogs all my life. I worked a year as manager at a dog boarding facility and I am currently a veterinary technician at a clinic! I am great with puppies along with seniors. I am currently in school and am at most in class two hours a day and my shifts are no longer than 6 hours a few times a week. I will most likely be taking care of pets while doing school work! I can watch pets in your home or my home! I will make sure your pets are well taken care of and are the most comfortable while you’re away. Caring for the pets is making sure they get a potty break ever 2-3 hours during the day and making sure they have water access and get fed their proper meals at the proper time.

Olivia is wonderful with animals. She is very caring, and nurturing. 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.

I have known Bryn since being a child. One thing I noticed now even as a child were the comments she made about being responsible and practical. I have never heard a 7 year old girl say she didn't want a doll sold by one of the vendors outside a musical production as a gift because she thought it was too expensive. Since then I've seen her excel in her school and her activities, balancing both while keeping a high GPA and yet exceling in her activities (she was one of the best players on her HS softball team). This is not something every young person can do. It takes responsibility and accountability. This is on display as she cares for her own pets at home. She regularly takes breaks, even from social activities to make sure she's giving attention to her own dog, Moneypenny. She has carried this work ethic and accountability into her college career, once balancing the rigors of being a member of a collegiate team and maintaining her studies (she's already made the Dean's list as a freshman). I have no doubt any pet owner could trust her with their pet's care.

Jessica and Aaron were SO great with my pups! They spent extra time and gave them lots of love and attention. They even stopped to pick up dogfood in a pinch! I absolutely recommend them and would love to have them take care of my pups again.

Carol is a great pet sitter. She took care of our mini poodle for several days and nights. During that time, she stayed in communication with us on a regular basis, eliminating the stress of leaving our dog and house behind. Carol is trustworthy and very dependable. Our dog loved her and all of her TLC! I would highly recommend Carol and her pet sitting service. You will not be disappointed!

Ally has been helping me care for my animals since I moved to Illinois in October of 2022. Ally is dependable, incredibly kind, and most of all an avid animal lover. Whether it was helping feed my animals dinner or staying at my home for a weekend while I was out of town, Ally was able to provide excellent care to my pets and stay in touch with me while I was away. Ally seems to approach pet care as if she was caring for her own pets - that is to say she always has an unconditional love for the animals she works with and loves to ensure they are safe and happy. I recommend Ally to anyone looking for a solid, dependable, and loving care taker for their pets! She’s truly amazing!
