House Sitting Lasalle Area

“Nicolas responded promptly to communications and did what we'd asked, even dealt with a rather complicated feeding process with grace! As a bonus, he was even already familiar with Litter Robots. Thanks for taking good care of our pets while we were away.”

About: I've had pets since I was a kid and I'm a huge animal lover — the go-to person for pet care among family and friends. I currently have three cats of my own, so I'm very comfortable in multi-cat households — reading their individual personalities, sticking to feeding schedules, and keeping stress low when routines change. My biggest test was house-sitting for a neighbor for a full week, managing 4 dogs and 3 cats at once — juggling different feeding times and exercise needs without missing a beat. I'm calm under pressure, detail-oriented with instructions, and treat every home with respect and care as if it were my own. I work full-time (9–5), so I'm available for in-home visits, dog walking, and in-home overnight care before work, after work, and all weekend. I'm also an early riser, so morning visits work well too. I'm flexible and can accommodate most feeding, play, or walk schedules around my job. I live in an apartment set up specifically with cats in mind — window perches, a self-cleaning litter box, and a wall-mounted cat jungle gym with climbing shelves and hideaways. My own cat Milo also enjoys supervised leash walks outside, so I'm comfortable and experienced with that if your cat is leash-trained too. Your pet's safety and comfort always come first, whether that means sticking closely to their routine or just giving them space to settle in. While cats are my specialty, I also have real dog experience — I've taken dogs outside to play in open spaces, and I know how to walk them confidently and keep them engaged. I once house-sat for a neighbor for a full week, caring for 4 dogs and 3 cats together. I'm also not afraid to set boundaries when needed, so your dog gets both playtime and structure.

“Alexis was great with our pups. She kept us updated with photos and checked in regularly. Also was very responsive.”

“Sarah was awesome. I would highly recommend her services. She took great care of our pets and house. The whole experience couldn't have been more pleasant. If you are looking for someone to watch your pets, look no further!”

“Victoria is the very first person we ever tried on Rover and she will be our ONLY choice from now on! She stayed in our home with our two pups. One of the boys has a daily medication and requires special attention. Victoria took them for walks each day. She sat with them while they played in the backyard and she let them have lots of snuggles while we were away. They were both happy and well cared for. Victoria sent lots of updates and pictures each day so we could see them. She cared for our home and left it spotless! Such an animal lover and we are happy to have found her!”

“Lydia was amazing! She was the perfect companion to our two dogs and cat over the holidays and also kept an eye on things at home. She’s super communicative, clearly loves animals, and sent us lots of updates to ease our separation anxiety. We’re so glad to have found her and will be booking again!!”

“LeeAna did an amazing job with our older dog. She left our home in great shape and took our girl on walks and made her feel comfortable. We would definitely have LeeAna dogsit for us again.”

“Casey Is Great! This is my first time using rover so obviously I was really nervous about this, but after talking to her she made me feel so much better! Responds fast, updates you throughout the day &’ is a sweetheart I would definitely book again!”

About: I've been caring for dogs for over 10 years and have experience with dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. As a dog owner myself, I know how important it is to have someone you can trust caring for your pet while you're away. I'm comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, bathing, and following each dog's normal routine and care instructions. My goal is to make your dog feel safe, comfortable, and at home while they're in my care, while also giving you peace of mind knowing they're being well taken care of. As a stay-at-home mom, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I'm home throughout the day, which gives me plenty of time to provide pets with attention, playtime, walks, potty breaks, feeding, and companionship. I have a flexible schedule and can easily adjust to each pet's normal routine and needs. Your pet won't be left alone for long periods and will have someone around to make them feel comfortable and cared for while they're away from home. Safety and trust are extremely important to me when caring for someone else's pet. I make sure pets are supervised, comfortable, and given plenty of attention while in my care. I carefully follow each owner's instructions regarding feeding, routines, walks, medications, and any special needs. I also understand that every pet has a different personality, so I give them the time and space they need to feel comfortable in a new environment. I want every owner to have peace of mind knowing their pet is safe, happy, and being treated like part of the family.

“Bethanie took great care of my 4 year old cavapoo Lucy on a 4 day housesit! She sent updates and pictures each day (including of my girl snuggled up in bed with her), reassuring me that Lucy was doing well. She was flexible with my schedule and asks and my home looked just like it did when I left! Thanks Bethanie 🖤”

About: I’ve had the pleasure of interacting with medium-sized dogs in my family, neighbors and friends! I don’t discriminate against any dog size, and I’m also open to taking on larger dogs. I work full time a 9-5 but I always make time! In the evening and weekends are open to new adventures! Some weekends and low key! I need/prefer a fenced in yard. Dog must be potty trained and leash trained. My home is tick and flea free ! This will vary depending on services requested.

About: I have had and taken care of dogs ever since I was little. Around my neighborhood, many dog owners would ask me to take care of their pets. I also go on dog transports with National Brittany Rescue and Adoption Network (NBRAN). I have worked with senior dogs and taken care of one for about 3 years. I am available Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Sunday after 12:30 till 6:00. I can also check in after 9. I am currently in college at the University of Notre Dame, and a part of the marching band which makes my schedule a little odd. When given directions for care/maintenance of pets, I will follow it to a T. I have three dogs and a cat of my own, so I have a good basis knowing when they need space or want to rough-house. I love being able to play with animals to see their personality shine through.

“We always contact Debra to take care of our 2 cats when we are out of town. She takes really good care of them and they like being around her. She sends lot of pictures so we do not miss them either. I 100% recommend her to take care of your furry babies.”

“All I can say is “Wow!” Nick not only cared for our cat but looked after our home. He watered the outdoor potted plants and picked tomatoes for us. He even washed the towels and bedsheets. I truly believe he left our house cleaner than it was when we left. If you want complete confidence that your pet and home will be well cared for, we highly recommend Nick!”

About: I have always grown up with pets, from dogs to rodents I’ve always had some fur little friend in my life. I adore being able to make a pets life more enjoyable and bright, whether that means going out and about or being a couch potato, I want to be there. I just recently got accepted to a master program at Notre Dame (crazy excited), due to that I have class from eight to noon Monday through Thursday and for the month of August and partially into September. I will have a Friday class however most afternoons I should be free and if not, I will always work with my schedule and your schedule to find the best time that works to see your pets! I personally love having a directions list, something that I can follow to keep both your mind and my mind at peace knowing that what is written down will make sure that you pet will be safe and still have a good time. I would also love to be able to meet you and your pet before any bookings so that both you and your pet feel comfortable with who I am!

“Absolutely wonderful! My husband and I felt very comfortable with Rachel and the dogs liked her from the start! Rachel kept us updated the entire time we were gone and even went the extra mile to water my plants since I was gone for so long! She even sent photos to us as she spent time with the dogs. Again, absolutely wonderful. I would recommend her to anyone with a dog, and who is picky about who they have watch their dog, as I was. Rachel was great. I will be using her again, definitely!”
