Pet Sitting in La Grange

“Lauren & Joseph took great care of our GSD russ while we were out on vacation! Photos of every drop-in were provided and communication was excellent. They went above and beyond by cleaning up after our dog in his backyard area!! Would definitely suggest going with them if you’re looking for exceptional care and will definitely be using them in the future!!”

“Caitlin was so great with our babies! She was able to get my super shy cat to eat, which is always difficult to achieve with a new person. She was very communicative and made us feel totally at ease.”

About: Every week I take shelter dogs on enriching field trips, helping them burn energy, explore new places, and just be dogs. That same care and attention is what I bring to every client's pup. I hold a Dog Shelter Handling Certificate and have my RECOVER Pet CPR certification, and I've worked with all kinds of dogs: high energy wrestlers, anxious sweethearts, and everything in between. I have experience with puppies, adults and elderly dogs alike, big and small! With me, your dog gets: -Fun, enriching outings tailored to their personality -Plenty of affection and individual attention -Detailed updates with photos after every visit My goal is for every dog (and their humans!) to feel happy, safe, and cared for. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend! I work pet care into my daily routine and plan my schedule around walks and drop in visits. I prioritize reliability and consistency so pets stay comfortable and on their normal routine. I enjoy being active and flexible, so it’s easy for me to fit pet care in consistently during the week. I focus on making pets feel engaged through exercise, play, enrichment toys/treats, and lots of attention. I always try to stick closely to your pet’s normal routine and any instructions you provide including crating and I’ll send detailed updates with photos so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.

About: Not only have I worked with animals my whole life I also work with dogs specifically with a rescue organization called AdoptMeBluegrass. I help with their animal care weekly and am part of their foster program. My family and my own dogs have welcomed hundreds of others into our home and always provide excellent care. I am a local landlord and typically only go out to work at the pet adoption center for AdoptMeBluegrass. I have no set work hours. I spend my time with the dogs. I have a double fenced property on a dead end street. Dogs love the 3/4 dedicated dog yard for them to play on our 6 acres of land. We have crates and can make your pet feel right at home. I’m a treats giver so let me know if there is something they can’t have or any other dietary restrictions. I can also come to your pet for services while you are away.

About: As a graduate student and lifelong animal lover, I bring both reliability and genuine care to every pet I work with. I have experience caring for dogs and cats, and I’m especially comfortable with larger breeds and pets with unique personalities. I have my own 8-year-old chow-shepherd mix, so daily long walks, patience, and attentive care are already a huge part of my routine. I also have experience caring for senior pets and understand the importance of slower pacing, medication routines, mobility awareness, and extra comfort and patience. Whether your pet loves active walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply calm companionship, I tailor my care to their individual needs and personality. I’m dependable, observant, communicative, and committed to making sure your pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine since I already spend a lot of time walking and caring for my own dog every day. I currently have full availability on Wednesdays and weekends (Saturday and Sunday), and I’m also available for evening walks and drop-ins on weekdays between 7–9 PM. I genuinely enjoy being active, spending time outdoors, and giving animals attention and care, so incorporating pet care into my weekly schedule is something I truly look forward to. I adapt my care to each pet’s individual routine and needs to help them feel as comfortable and stress-free as possible. Whether that means long walks, playtime, feeding schedules, giving medicine, potty breaks, check-ins, cuddle time, or simply providing calm companionship, I’m happy to do it all. I know how important consistency is for pets, so I always aim to follow the owner’s instructions closely while giving every animal plenty of attention, patience, and care.

“Ashley is amazing!!! She took such great care of our kitties while when we gone! I never worried about our fur babies because I knew they were in great hands! We will definitely hire her again! She is just awesome. My husband calls her the cat whisperer. To our kitties, she is now Aunt Ashley.”

“Lynn visited our young cat each day and sent updates and photos even if it was just the kitty running by! ? We appreciate her help during our trip.”

About: I have always had a huge heart for animals and genuinely love spending time with them. I currently volunteer at a local humane society, where I help clean, care for animals, and make sure they feel safe and loved. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every dog and cat like they’re my own. Whether it’s playtime, feeding, potty breaks, medication, or just sitting quietly with a nervous pet who needs reassurance, I show up with patience and kindness. I’m dependable, detail oriented, and great at following instructions. You can count on updates, pictures, and clear communication during every visit. My goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable and you feel completely at ease while you’re away. I am currently working from home and have a flexible schedule. I can come before work, on my lunch break and after work! I am off on the weekends! I primarily provide care in my client’s home so pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications, potty breaks, and home access guidelines. I am respectful of your space, always ensure doors are securely locked, and keep your home just as I found it. I provide detailed updates and photos during each visit so you can feel confident your pet is safe and well cared for. My goal is to create a calm, stress free experience for both you and your pet.

“Molly was fabulous with our big doodle Snickers!! Professional, dependable,and lots of great pics daily! I would highly recommend Molly and we will definitely use her again!”

About: What truly sets me apart is the level of hands-on experience I have with dogs who need extra care. My wife and I have had rescue dogs for over 20 years, and almost every one of them has come to us with medical or emotional challenges. Our first boy developed seizures right after we adopted him, and we gave him medication twice a day for his entire 14-year life. We’ve also cared for dogs with cancer, managed daily medications, and even administered at-home IV treatment when one of our girls needed it. Right now, one of our dogs is going through cancer treatment, and we handle multiple medications, special routines, and close monitoring. Because of this, I’m extremely comfortable giving meds, following detailed care plans, watching for changes in behavior, and providing calm, patient support for senior or medically fragile dogs. In our home, dogs aren’t “pets”—they’re our kids. I bring that same level of love, attention, and respect into every home I care for. Your dog will be treated with the same care, patience, and compassion I give my own. After selling my business, I finally have the freedom to spend my days doing something I genuinely love—being there for dogs who need real attention, not just a quick stop-in. If your pet is older, recovering, dealing with health issues, or simply happier with someone calm and consistent around, I provide steady, patient care right in their home. With an open, flexible schedule, I can stay with your dog as much as needed—perfect for pets that need regular meds, mobility help, special meals, or just someone who won’t rush them. I’m comfortable handling messes, encouraging slow or selective eaters, and adjusting to whatever routine your dog is used to. Light play, companionship, and several relaxed walks (when appropriate) are always included. I take your trust seriously—both with your pet and with your home. I know it’s a big deal to let someone into your personal space, and I handle that responsibility with real respect. I don’t go through anything that isn’t mine, and I keep your home exactly the way you left it. I’m also happy to help with the small things while you’re away—bringing in packages, watering plants, keeping things neat, and making your place look lived-in for added peace of mind. My approach is simple: calm, dependable, and focused. I’m not rushing in and out or checking the clock. My attention stays on your dog and what they need, not on squeezing the visit into a tight schedule.

“Jim was so easy to work with when we needed someone to come let Hershey out late at night with little notice. He arrived on time, sent us pictures, and was so sweet to our baby! I would recommend him to anyone and will definitely use him in the future!”

About: I have over 18 years of hands-on experience working with animals and take pride in providing safe, knowledgeable care for every pet I work with. I’ve trained multiple dogs in behavioral rehabilitation and personal protection, which has given me strong skills in reading body language and handling a wide range of temperaments. I also have experience working as a veterinary technician, so I’m comfortable monitoring pets for health concerns and administering medications if needed. In addition to dogs and cats, I have extensive experience training and handling horses, which has helped me develop patience, consistency, and a deep understanding of animal behavior. I truly care about the animals in my care and believe every pet deserves attentive, reliable, and compassionate treatment while their owners are away. I work from home so I have all the hours to dedicate to your pets and provide the best care possible. Book with me today! I have a full fenced in farm with the ability to keep your furbaby separate from other animals or the ability to let your fur babies play with others. Crates are available as well.

“Abbey was so accommodating to watch our cats last minute. And she was great with notes and photos every day. We will want her to come again next time we travel!”

About: I have 2 dogs of my own, a boxer and a black lab. I’ve had dogs my whole life and I love them. I’ve taken care of my neighbors dogs, cats, chickens, etc. multiple times throughout the years so I’m experienced and reliable! Im available throughout the week and weekends. I am able to be home in the afternoons and evenings and I have my mornings free as well. I have a fenced in back yard, and 2 dogs that love to play. I have 2 crates so my dogs can be put away if needed. I love my dogs and I love having the opportunity to look after other peoples as well!

“Heather provided us with exceptional service and kept us updated with information concerning PD. We are very happy with the services provided. Our situation is unusual since PD is a stray cat and is only comfortable with me and after a vet visit and requesting boarding the vet made it clear that boarding could do more harm to the health of PD so we had to look to alternative care which Heather provided. We can't thank her enough for keeping an eye on PD and providing daily water and food. I could breath a bit easier while away knowing Heather was monitoring PD.”

“Nothing but good things to say. She is fantastic.”

About: I have taken care of many animals my entire life. I have been pet sitting for my family for many years either for adult dogs or puppies, cats and kittens. I love all animals and throughly enjoy spending time with animals. I love playing fetch, going on walks and cuddle times. I am currently a stay at home mom. Both my children are in school now so I have time to spend loving on animals during the day. I am available on weekdays 7:30am-2pm and 6:30pm-9:30pm. On weekends I’m pretty much available all day. I have a large fenced in back yard, I have one dog and one cat. I can crate a dog if needed. I am happy to feed, water and walk your animals.

About: I’ve always been around animals, and caring for them comes very naturally to me. I currently work at Happy Hounds, a dog daycare, where I’ve been caring for dogs for nearly two years. During this time, I’ve gained hands-on experience with dogs of many different personalities, energy levels, and needs, including feeding routines, walking, cleaning, playtime, and making sure dogs feel safe and comfortable in my care. I’ve also volunteered at the humane society, which taught me how to work patiently with animals who may be nervous, shy, or adjusting to new environments. I understand the importance of reading body language, moving at the animal’s pace, and providing calm, consistent care. At home, I have my own dog, a pug, and my own cat, so I’m very familiar with daily pet routines, different temperaments, and the individual attention pets need. I’m comfortable caring for both dogs and cats, and I am able to administer medication when needed, always following instructions carefully to keep pets healthy and stress-free. Whether it’s walks, drop-in visits, or extra attention and cuddles, I treat every pet like they’re my own. Pet parents can count on me to be reliable, communicative, and attentive, and I always strive to provide safe, loving care while you’re away. Pet care is a consistent part of my daily routine. I plan my schedule carefully around work and school so I can provide reliable, attentive care. On days when I have class or longer work shifts, I’m available in the mornings or evenings, and on lighter days and weekends I have more flexibility for visits, walks, and extended care. Because I care for my own dog and cat every day, I’m very familiar with maintaining routines like feeding, walking, and playtime. When I have school, my dog attends the dog daycare where I work, so she stays active, socialized, and well cared for instead of being home alone. This allows me to fully focus on the pets I’m caring for and keep everyone comfortable and happy. I prioritize consistency and communication so pet parents can feel confident their pets are receiving dependable, loving care throughout the week. Availability: Mondays: Available mornings and evenings (unavailable 9am–3pm due to class) • Tuesdays: Available evenings only (message for actual times) • Wednesdays: Available mornings and evenings (unavailable 9am–3pm due to class) • Thursdays: Available evenings only (Message for actual times) • Fridays: Available late afternoons/evenings (working 7am–1pm and class 2pm–3pm) • Weekends (Saturday & Sunday): Generally available and flexible I prefer to care for pets in their own home, as it’s less stressful for them to stay in a familiar environment and routine. Caring for pets in their own home also makes it more convenient for clients, as there’s no need to transport your pet. I adapt to each pet’s personality and needs, whether they’re energetic and playful or calm and shy.

About: My husband and I have had dogs our entire life both big and small. We currently have a medium dog who is a dream to walk, and a large dog who walks us but we love both just the same! We would love to host your fur baby at our house or drop in just to give them some love! We have 2 kids who have been raised around animals. Our normal attire is dog hair so we’re not afraid of some shedding. We haven’t been able to stretch our legs out in our bed in 10 years because no matter how comfy our dogs bed is they always end up on ours so we don’t mind if they are on our furniture or bed!
