House Sitting in Joliet

About: I have taken care of friends and family and fellow neighbors pets ranging from yorkies to bull mastiffs. I was responsible for taking them out, feeding, play time, walking, and just spending time with them. I love animals no matter how big or small they are. I work part time at night. I am very flexible with pet sitting needs. I have no rigid schedule which makes it easier for me to take of your pets. I always make sure to keep a eye on your loved pets and make sure all their needs are met. Guarantee you’ll come home to a happy dog!

“Haily was awesome, she took great care of our dogs. She spent time with them in the basement during a tornado warning. My golden Is very afraid of storms and is not fun to be around during them but Haily took it in stride. She communicated with us while we were gone and sent pictures. Would definitely highly recommend her.”

“Elizabeth was so helpful taking care of our two dogs while we were away! She didn't just let them out, but also walked them and was super communicative about how they were doing. We are so grateful for all her help and felt very confident our pups were well cared for in our absence.”

“Sarah was amazing with our pack of geriatric pets! She sent pictures every day, and she communicated everything really well. Taking care of our pets is somewhat complicated because of their ages, but Sarah took detailed notes and nailed everything perfectly. Our house was nice and clean when we came home. Sarah was also flexible with our flight delays and stayed an extra night to make sure there was no gap in care while we were struggling to get home. We really couldn't have asked for a better, more trustworthy person to take care of our babies. Thank you so much, Sarah, you were amazing!”

“Frank watched my baby on Friday. It was the first time I used him. He was very personable, on-time and concerned about Sierra's schedule and well being.He took her on a walk even though it has been brutally cold. I am sure Sierra loved that! Anytime she can go for a walk she's happy. We returned about 10 minutes later than I had anticipated. Frank remained here with Sierra. When I am back in Joliet and need sitter- I hope Frank is available! Thanks, Frank!”

“Emily was great! She stayed at our house for 5 nights, watching our 10 year old great Pyrenees. She was available to house sit with only a week's notice, which we are very grateful for. She had good communication on giving me updates and also very timely whenever I reached out. I had genuine peace of mind while we were out of state. House was just as clean as, maybe even cleaner than, when we left it, huge relief after our long day of flying. We came home to our happy sleeping dog! Our dog just required morning/evening feeding and morning/afternoon/evening potty breaks at a minimum, and Emily definitely put in more than the bare minimum. She gave our dog all the extra weather permitting outside play time and inside loves that I would have given my dog if I was home, so we are very happy with Emily! Definitely would rebook! Thank you Emily!”

About: I've had the pleasure of caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and ages, and I love getting to know what makes each one special. Whether your dog is energetic and adventurous or prefers a slower pace, I'll make sure they receive attentive care, plenty of affection, and a safe, comfortable experience while you're away. Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine. As a cat owner and experienced pet sitter, I'm used to planning my schedule around feeding times, walks, playtime, medication schedules when needed, and plenty of attention. I enjoy spending time with animals and make it a priority to provide consistent, reliable care that helps pets feel comfortable and loved while their owners are away. I believe pets are happiest when their normal routine is maintained, so I take the time to learn each pet's schedule, preferences, and needs. In a client's home, I provide attentive care that includes feeding, fresh water, walks or playtime, litter box or potty breaks, medication administration if needed, and plenty of affection. I treat every home with respect and keep owners updated with photos and messages so they can feel confident their pets are in good hands.

“Kayla was so sweet, she sent me los of pictures and updates on my three big dogs who are very lovable but can be a handle”
