Cat Sitting Lincolnwood

About: I’ve always had a deep love for animals. Their loyalty, companionship, and energy make them so special, and they deserve the same care and kindness in return. I’ve been around animals my whole life and have hands on experience raising and caring for both dogs and cats. What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give to every pet. I treat them like my own and take the time to understand their personality and needs. I’m very patient and comfortable with dogs and cats of all ages, from playful puppies to senior dogs who may need a slower and gentler approach. I also have experience with cats and understand that every pet has their own unique personality and comfort level. Whether your dog or cat loves to be active and go on walks or prefers to stay home and relax, I’m happy to match their energy and make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. I also like to keep owners updated with messages and the occasional cute photo so you can feel at ease while you’re away:) I have a 7 year old Boxer who lives with me. She’s very friendly, loves other dogs, and would be happy to have some company. I’m easy to get along with, responsible, and always do my best to make sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for. If there’s anything specific your pet needs, I’ll always try my best to accommodate. I’d love to be a great match for your furry friend! A little bit about me! I live in the Albany Park area and have my own reliable transportation, so I’m dependable and able to get to your pet when needed. I work freelance, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to plan my day around your pet’s routine. Whether it’s walks, drop-ins, longer stays, or even last-minute help, I’m able to adjust my availability to make sure your pet gets the attention, care, and consistency they need. Whether I’m caring for your pet during walks, drop-ins, or overnight stays, their safety and comfort are always my priority. I politely ask that all clients have a fully completed and updated profile with recent photos of their pets, information about their personality, routine, behavior, and any special needs, as well as some information about themselves. This helps me feel more comfortable and confident accepting a booking and gives me a better understanding of you and your pet beforehand. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine and any instructions you provide as closely as possible, whether that’s feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, or just keeping them company. My goal is to make sure your pet feels happy, safe, and comfortable in their own home while you’re away.

About: I’m an extremely mobile pet sitter: I have a car - let me visit your home or take your pet to their desired destination! I work remotely full-time - I can provide more indoor attention if needed! I live a very active life style - I can run, play fetch, and/or wiggle a string all day long! Since I work remotely full-time, I can relocate myself to the pet’s house easily and bring my work, or host pets at my place. Either way, I can provide extra attention to animals in need. I believe in respecting the pet and matching their energy - if they are friendly and seeking attention, I’ll provide it; if they need time to warm up, I’ll give them space. I also want to respect the wishes of the owners - any instructions owners want applied to their pets in their presence, I will honor in their absence.

“Karli is amazing— she had an excellent rapport with our kitten and played with him the entire time, which is exactly what he needed. I felt confident leaving our little baby in her care, and I will absolutely hire her again. Highly recommended!”

Rachel M.

“I recommend Tony and will rehire.”

About: I have had a variety of pets and have cared for a variety of animals (dogs, cats, birds and a turtle). A variety of breeds and ages. I am available most weekdays after 4pm. I am available most Saturdays in the AM and PM. I also am available Sunday afternoons and evenings. I make sure my dog has plenty of food and fresh water throughout the day. I take her outside to go to the bathroom in the morning and right when I come home. I take her on a walk. I play and cuddle with her a lot.

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember! I have worked in an animal shelter and vet clinic as a veterinary assistant caring for a variety of animals. I have had the privilege of fostering 100 animals (mostly neonatal and orphaned kittens!). I currently have three cats and an 18 year old Crested Gecko. Two of my cats are fosters that never left- both have cererbellar hypoplasia, or better known as wobbly cat syndrome! I have pet sat for many kinds of animals including cats, dogs, guinea pigs and reptiles. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend! Please note: I do not use flexi/retractible leashes to ensure safety. I am happy to bring my own slip lead or standard leash. Please, let me know if you have questions! I work from home and have a flexible schedule! I typically have afternoons and weekends free. I would love to learn more about what your pet’s specific care needs are! I want to hear all about your pet! What do they like, what don’t they like? What are their quirks and preferences? I want to learn about them because I want to make sure I am caring for them the way you would.

“My cat loved Gail. I have had a few sitters, but Mars bonded with her. He was happier than after any other vacation. I plan on asking her to come back in October.”

“Ellie took fantastic care of my cat Rufus. Her updates were very detailed and she took plenty of great pictures. I have already booked with her twice and would not hesitate to book again or recommend her to any of my friends with pet sitting needs!”

About: I offer in-home pet sitting and dog walking for local clients, providing feeding, exercise, and companionship for both dogs and cats. I'm comfortable administering medications and following individualized care instructions for pets with specific health or dietary needs. I've built lasting relationships with repeat clients through reliable scheduling, attentive care, and regular updates on their pets while they're away. I manage all bookings and client communication myself, balancing multiple pet-sitting clients alongside full-time work in animal care. Since I'm not currently working a set schedule, pet care fits easily into my day-to-day life. I have flexible availability throughout the week, including daytime hours, which means I can stick to a pet's normal routine without rushing, whether that's multiple walks a day, mid-day feedings, or checking in on medication schedules. I'm able to be consistent and present, so pets get the same reliable care and attention every visit. I treat every home like it's my own, securing doors, following the pet's normal routine for feeding, walking, and litter boxes, and sticking closely to any medication or care instructions. My clinic experience helps me catch early signs if something seems off, and I know how to let anxious or senior cats warm up at their own pace rather than forcing it. For dogs, I double-check leashes and collars and stay attentive on walks. I keep owners updated throughout, so they always know their pet is safe, comfortable, and cared for.

“Morgan checked in on our cats and they loved her! I appreciated knowing they were getting care and attention and treats. She was good about communication and directions on where things are, etc. Would definitely ask her to watch them again!”

About: I love animals deeply and treat all pets like my own. Family, friends, coworkers, and neighbors have always felt safe leaving their animals in my care. Plenty of free time as I have just moved back from London completing my masters and taking this summer off and would preferably spend it with more animals! Caring for pets is a natural part of my routine—I’ve always made space in my life for animal companionship (even as I was abroad). Whether it’s morning walks, midday play sessions, or evening cuddles, I genuinely love making animals feel safe and loved throughout the day. Spending time with pets isn’t just a responsibility or a job for me—it’s something I look forward to daily and consider a joyful part of my lifestyle. In the home of my clients I will always look out for choking hazards and ensure I see the animals in my care drinking water. I approach each pet's care with attention to their routine, personality, and comfort. I follow feeding and medication instructions carefully, keep their environment clean/enriched, and make sure they have companionship and mental stimulation. Clear communication with pet parents helps me tailor care to each animal’s unique needs.

“Hanna was communicative, prompt, professional, warm and highly competent! She helped administer fluids to my senior dog and I am so grateful.”

Nicole G.

“Cookie & Peanut thoroughly enjoyed their time with Angelica. It was so cute to see how the cats progressively looked more comfortable/silly with her throughout their time together.”

Ally K.

“Cheryl was amazing, she communicated if anything was needed. My cats loved them. Will be booking her soon again on our next trip.”

Jessica S.

“MELINA IS THE BEST! I was gone for two weeks and she made daily visits to my fur baby. Mind you my cat isn’t the friendliest but she made sure he was well fed and looked after. She was so patient and friendly and made the process so smooth. She sent me photos and updates daily that made me feel so relieved being out of town for so long. Definitely rebooking her each time and recommending her to everyone!!! You fur baby is safe with her! Thank you so much Melina!! 10/10”

About: Your pets deserve more than just a sitter; they deserve someone who genuinely loves them. I’ve spent my whole life surrounded by animals, and for more than a decade I’ve turned that passion into a profession as a dog walker and cat sitter, while volunteering at local shelters along the way. I’ve cared for every personality under the sun including the shy ones, the wild ones, the velcro dogs, the aloof cats, and I love them all. What sets me apart? I treat every pet like my own. Not as a catchphrase, but as a promise. Accommodating each pet’s individual needs comes naturally to me, and every animal I care for gets the same love and attention I’d give my own. Your pet’s comfort, happiness, and safety are always my top priority. If you’re looking for someone reliable, communicative, experienced, and truly passionate about animals, you’ve found them. I hope to meet your pet very soon! I work from home during the week, so my schedule is pretty flexible! For drop-in visits and walks, I’m available after 4pm on weekdays and anytime during weekends. During our meet and greet, we can discuss all the ins and outs of your pets needs! Depending on the service, how I care for your pet in your home is variable. Dog walking includes 25 minutes outside, and 5 minutes inside for a little time to refresh their water, and playtime, or cuddle time, depending on what your dog is feeling! Cat visits inside, I tend to go by what one communicates during our meet and greet. Usually it will include cuddles, water refresh, and/or playtime. I will always take my shoes off, and double check to see if I locked your door correctly! :)

“Karen was excellent, took such good care of my boy. Highly recommend!!!”
