“Jasmine was incredible! She is great with communication and taking pictures during her drop in. She spent a lot of time with my kitties which made me feel so much better about leaving them. Definitely would recommend her to anyone!”

“Gail was so sweet and caring to my shy cat! Also very communicative with me through the whole visit. I highly recommend her, and would definitely book her again!”

“Julie was extremely communicative, attentive, and made us feel completely comfortable going out of town for the weekend. The pups were well cared for and we will be using her again!”


About: I grew up with 2 dogs (Polish tatra sheepdog and a miniature poddle) so I am comfortable caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes. I recently moved to Chicago and I miss my dogs at home, so I am looking forward to caring for cute dogs! I currently work a full-time job, but I get home before 5pm on weeknights. I am free to take care of pets on weeknights and weekends! I will take care of your pet in your home with check ins or walks. I am very clean, organized, and respectful when it comes to other peoples homes and my own!
“This is my second time using Brooke and I highly recommend her! She does a great job watching my cat and always sends detailed updates, she is also very easy and communicative to work with for booking and logistics!”

About: Hi! I’d love to care for your pet. I grew up in the countryside surrounded by animals, with a veterinarian dad who taught me to love and care for them from a young age. I’m gentle, empathetic, and connect easily with pets – from playful puppies to shy cats. I take my responsibilities seriously and treat every pet like my own. I’d love to meet you and your furry friend! ☺️🐈🐕🦺🦴🐾 It fits perfectly, I work part time. I have a flexible work schedule. There will be no problems with accommodation. I manage my time very well. I have an apartment suitable for dogs. There is a lovely dog park next to the house where we can have a great time with your dog.
“We love Alison!!!✨was our first time trying the app and I wouldn’t picked anyone else to take care of Aspen 🐶 . Always on time, making sure he was fine and genuinely caring ! 🫰🏻 Thanks Alison.”

About: I have cared for my own shared pets in past relationships and now serve as the regular dog sitter for friends who travel often for work. Dogs under 60 pounds are preferred as I am a smaller frame. I work from home full time and love to have a furry friend to take on walks and get me outside throughout the day. I can accommodate any schedule needs with this flexibility. I have a large patio for dogs who enjoy sun tanning and fresh air, and large windows for bird watching on the colder days. I live on a safe, tree lined street with lots of paths for walking and sniffing. I am happy to let dogs sleep anywhere, but would prefer to have a crate if I run out for errands.

“Austin was amazing with our spicy kitty! Our cat seemed happy and a lot less needy we came back from our trip. Austin was super responsive and sent us lovely reports of her time with Nala. We would certainly work with Austin again and cannot recommend her enough!”


“Thank you Laura for helping us out with our girl! She followed directions great, gave updates, and did everything that was asked! Will be using Laura in the future :)”

“Ashlee took amazing care of our two cats - she was quick to respond and so helpful with our last minute booking. We got tons of pics each visit and she went above and beyond!”

About: I’ve had three dogs throughout my life, including a senior dog we recently rescued who is 13 years old. I’ve also cared for a dog with diabetes, so I understand how important it is to be attentive to a dog’s individual needs, routines, medications, and care instructions. I’ve also dog-sat for family and friends and genuinely love spending time with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. As a sitter, I’m happy to follow your dog’s normal routine and make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away. Depending on your dog’s needs, this can include walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, keeping them company, and giving them plenty of attention and affection. I know every dog is different, so I’m happy to follow any specific instructions that help your dog feel at home. I work part-time and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time to the pets I’m caring for. I’m responsible, communicative, and will treat your dog like they’re my own. I also understand how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet with someone else, so I’ll keep you updated and make sure you know how your dog is doing throughout their stay. I’d love the opportunity to meet your dog and help make their time without you as happy and comfortable as possible! I work part-time and mostly remotely from my apartment, so I have a flexible schedule! I’m available during the day and evenings for walks, playtime, and some extra love for your dog(s). I’ll treat your dogs like my own! I’ll give them plenty of love and attention while making sure they feel comfortable, calm, and safe in my care.
“Cierra was wonderful and very communicative! When my cat had diarrhea while I was away she cleaned everything up and kept me posted on the situation. I really appreciate how above and beyond she went!”

About: Hi, I'm Noah! I live in Wrigleyville, so I'm close by for walks, drop-ins, and last-minute visits around Lakeview and the North Side. I'm active and on my feet a lot, so your dog will get a real walk, not a quick lap around the block. I've grown up with dogs and cared for friends' and family's pets, and I'm comfortable with all types of dogs. I'm reliable and detail-oriented. I'll follow your routine on feeding, meds, and house rules, and every visit comes with photos and an update so you know how things went. I'd love to set up a meet-and-greet so you and your pup can get to know me first. Send me a message! I work remotely, so I'm home throughout the day and can plan my schedule around walks, drop-ins, and sitting. That means I'm very flexible and can usually handle midday walks, last-minute requests, and consistent routines your dog can count on. I live in a walk-up apartment in Wrigleyville with no other dogs or cats, so your pup gets my full attention. There's no yard, so all bathroom breaks and exercise happen on leash, with plenty of walks around the neighborhood. Since I'm home most of the day, your dog is rarely left alone. In your home, I'll stick to your routine for feeding, meds, and house rules, keep doors and gates secured, and send photos and updates every visit.
About: I grew up with a wide variety of pets and when I was young I wanted to be a veterinarian. We had two dogs (a Soft-coated Wheaten Terrier named Wolfgang and a Miniature Wire-Haired Dachshund named Winifred), hermit crabs, newts, and hamsters. Over the past few years, I've watched my friends' cats and dogs both at their homes and hosting them at mine. I am currently in between full-time jobs so I have a lot of availability! I can check in on pets during the day and can host during the work week. I have a nice two-bedroom apartment for hosting and a back porch where a pet can relax outside securely. Making sure your pet feels safe and comfortable is my top priority, whether at my home or yours.
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Lake View is $20

Aaron checked in on our kitty 12 times while we were out of town. As a person who is very anxious leaving my cat while traveling, I didn’t have to worry once about Butternut while we were gone. Aaron was reliable, followed all of our instructions and regularly sent us pictures of our kitty. When our cat threw up he communicated it with us and reassured us that he didn’t mind cleaning it up. We (Butternut included) recommend Aaron!

Ellena is such a thoughtful person. She took excellent care of my cat, and he thoroughly enjoyed her company. I came home to a very happy and healthy kitty, and my apartment looked great. Moreover, when my trip was extended by a day, Ellena was so flexible to cover for me. She’s an amazing sitter and I will absolutely book her when I’m out again!

Kiefer works very collaboratively with us. He’s an excellent communicator, keeps in touch in the lead up to the visit and afterward, and spends a lot of time learning about our dog. We appreciate his trustworthiness and reliability, and our dog appreciates his demeanor and patience. 10/10 would recommend!

Mercedes did a great job checking in on and playing with our kittens while we were out of town for a couple days. She followed all of my (very exacting) instructions, sent many photos, and checked in at exactly the times I requested. I'll definitely hit her up again if we'll be away overnight.

This was our second time booking with Autumn, and she was wonderful once again! She sent detailed updates and many photos after every visit, and it was clear that our cats were getting plenty of love and attention. She’s reliable and communicative, and we always feel comfortable leaving our cats in her care. We’re so glad to have found her and will definitely continue booking with her!

Melanie was amazing with our cats! She was super communicative, asked great questions, and followed instructions. We had peace of mind knowing they were getting such great playtime and care and came home to very happy safe and sound cats. Highly recommend!

Olivia did a fantastic job with our three cats! They are all sixteen years old, two require medicine, and one is particularly finicky. Olivia took care of them for over a week and bonded with all of them! She also provided thorough reports each time she visited. I am glad we found her. We will definitely use her the next time we need someone to take care of our cats! Olivia is reliable and responsible- highly recommend her. Jennifer
