“Melissa did an amazing job boarding my cats over the Christmas holidays. Timely updates and cuddles were provided to me and my cats respectively. Highly recommend & appreciated.”

“Anastasiia did an amazing job taking care of our pup while we were out of town and I highly recommend her for boarding! She made drop off and pick up a breeze and she sent me plenty of updates throughout the week which was so nice! We will definitely be booking her again for our next trip. Thank you so much Anastasiia! :)”

“Monica took the best care of my dog and provided several video updates each day. Her communication is prompt and she followed all the instructions I gave her. Highly recommend!”

“Autumn was great at taking my dog LD into her house. She came and picked her up with no issues. Sent me update pics and texts. Dropped my dog off at designated time and was hassle free. I already booked her again!!”


“Our two doodles LOVED their time with Jill. We received photo updates during their stay that really let us relax. We knew our girls were in good hands. When we got home, the dogs were happy to see us, but they missed their doggy friends from Jill's house. Everything was hassle-free and we came home with healthy and happy dogs.”


About: I have a wide range of expirence with all types of breeds since I was 10. I work from home so I am around most of the time. I am currently training for a hiking marathon and my dog cannot make all the miles I need in a day. Love active dogs and all their quirks. I am up at 4:30 every morning. Walking my first dog at 5am. I get my teenage son off to school. I work in my home office until 2pm. During this time my dogs have full run of the house and my large fenced in yard. They have full access to toys and water throughout the day. Then time to walk 2 other dogs. After dinner I am walking my senior dog on his personalized walk. He loves to play with other dogs but also loves his evening walk solo. I have a large fenced in back yard. Poop is regularly picked up. I have 2 dogs and they are treated like one of the family. They have their routines and enjoy the many pampering they get. My dogs are allowed anywhere in the home. They have many toys, treats, and snuggles.

“Chris watched our dog over a long weekend and was an amazing caretaker! Chris sent us daily updates with pictures and was very responsive. Chris has a natural ability to engage with new pets. We highly recommend Chris and will definitely inquire again in the future!”
“I was super nervous about leaving my dog reactive baby but Jenny made me feel at ease while Queen was with her. She followed my rules and provided the specific communication I requested. I will definitely use Jenny again :)”

About: As a long time animal owner and lover, I'll always take care of your pet like they're my own. It's so important to me that you feel safe when you leave your fur baby in somebody else's care. I also have lots of experience with dog breeds with varying behavioral issues - from terrified chihuahuas to leash reactive german shepherds, horses, fish, and tons of lil guys inbetween. Whether it’s a drop in, walk, or overnight boarding, We’ll work together to make sure your pets needs are 110% met. 🫶🏻 I work from home on a decently flexible schedule so nobody is getting left alone for hours. We also have a gorgeous fenced-in backyard for roaming and play and are close to trails so dogs can go to the forest preserve with us if they'd like for extra nature time. 🌲 I currently work completely remote so my schedule is highly flexible and I’m happy to accommodate your needs or come keep some company for a while. During drop ins, I'm always happy to refill water bowls, feed, walk, play, cuddle, and whatever is needed to make sure your pet stays stimulated and has some trusted company while you're away.
“Veronique, was/is fabulous. Knowledgeable and kind. She watched out fur baby at her home, AJ instantly felt comfortable and Veronique showed such kindness and compassion for our older pup. Her two dogs are just loves and welcomed AJ with friendly tails and smells. So thankful we found Veronique will definitely book again.”

“Kyle did a great job watching Bailey. There were times in the past with other sitters where Bailey would come back traumatized and take a few days to get back to normal. After being with Kyle for four days Bailey was fine returning home. I think being the only dog at Kyle’s house is a big plus. We received periodic picture and video updates which help relieve our anxiety during the trip. We have no reservations in asking Kyle to watch Bailey again.”

“Ewa doesn’t disappoint! Olive loved her stay and feels so at home with Ewa. She loves the big fenced yard and all the attention and playtime, and I love getting all the updates, photos and videos. Ewa was flexible in allowing me to extend Olive’s stay as I was recovering from surgery. I really appreciated that. I’m so blessed and thankful to have such a wonderful environment and sitter for Olive!”

“I cannot express my deep gratitude and appreciation for Balaji. He treated my Mocha like a family, she was treated like she is their own. Lots of playtime, exercise and love. As a bonus Mocha found her soul sister in Mocha ( Balaji’s own) .It is like a playdate everyday! He has the ideal set up to host furry babies. He sent me lots of photos throughout the day, it felt like I never left her side. Balaji exceeded our expectations, I think no one can top the services he provides. I picked Mocha up and she looks immaculate and she smells so good, one of the proof she was well taken care of. He even sent toys ( which Mocha adores❤️) and treats. Balaji, you are the best!!!”

We are so grateful for Danielle and her family and the wonderful care they provide for our Ella whenever we’re out of town! Danielle is incredibly patient and always gives Ella the time and space she needs to settle in and feel comfortable. She sends daily updates and photos throughout her stay, and it’s always so reassuring to see how happy and well cared for Ella is. They truly treat her like part of their own pack! Danielle is also incredibly flexible, accommodating, and understanding. During this most recent stay, we experienced unexpected travel delays and were unable to pick Ella up at our scheduled time. Danielle was so understanding and willing to work with us, which took a huge weight off our shoulders during an already stressful situation. We truly appreciate the love and care Danielle and her family give Ella and the peace of mind that comes with knowing she’s in such good hands. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her!

Our dogs had a great time with Jill. We are so happy with how well Jill cared for our two dogs and genuinely loved having them at her home. Jill was very communicative and friendly along with sending us frequent pics while we were able. We couldn’t be more appreciative to have felt so ease while we were away and could tell our dogs were in good hands.

This was our first time leaving Piper (our 70 lb. Golden retriever) with Alicia. The choice was easy. She had experience and there was a fenced yard. Piper is difficult to walk. Ali asked all the right questions during our meet and greet. Ali was an excellent care giver! She sent daily pictures which were greatly appreciated! Piper looked happy and right at home. It appears her children enjoyed having a dog around! She said Piper would be welcomed back anytime. We will definitely book with her again.

From start to finish, Barbara was helpful and welcoming to our family and Kylo. Kylo definitely missed her and wanted to say goodbye. We will definitely use Barbara again because she took amazing care of our family dog. Thank you for all the updates and for looking out for our dog.

Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

Many sitters in IL ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
