“Erica has babysat our cat Domino in our home several times now. Domino is a cat that we took several months to rescue earlier this year. Consequently, she is shy and a bit skittish around new people. She bonded with Erica almost immediately! Erica has two cats of her own, so she knows a lot about them and their finicky nature. Erica has a warm and caring nature that comes across in the way that she communicates with Domino. She calls Domino her niece! Erica is fastidious with Domino’s litter box and feeds her twice daily. She sends us regular posts and updates regarding Domino’s antics. Erica spends time with Domino and plays with her. We miss Domino when we are gone, but never worry that she will be too lonely without us. We feel secure when we are away. We trust Erica with having the keys to our home. We have the utmost confidence that Erica will take great care of our fur baby.”

“Emmi was great! She has tons of experience caring for cats and was comfortable administering medications to our two older cats…who don’t always love taking their meds. We loved getting lots of cute pictures and detailed reports after every visit.”
About: I’ve own a pet since I was 5. I had all types: dogs ( small - large), cats, rabbit, turtles, fish, bird, gecko. I loved them all. Taking care of animals gives me joy and great experience to be a veterinarian. I have a flexible schedule. I am currently in school but that will not affect my dog sitting schedule. I’m easy to work with for you and your family . My neighbor is safe and pet friendly. However, I prefer caring for a pet where they’re most comfortable in their neighborhood. ( If I have permission from the owner).
About: I love animals. I have owned a horse, birds and fish. Although I never owned a dog or cat, Friends and family have always asked me to pet sit and I have always been more than happy to ablige. As a former letter Carrier, my favorite customers were four-legged. I am retired and want to stay active. Who can keep you more fit and active than a dog that is waiting for a walk-date? When I have dog sat, I usually go for multiple walks. I can walk all day. The dogs love it and it makes them tired. Animals need mental stimulation outside of their house or yard just like people. I try to find things to keep us both busy and happy.
About: I grew up in a household of large dogs, I am very good at reading body language, and I have an incredible amount of free time to dedicate to any extra needs! I am currently available everyday and any drop off hour works for me. I wake up with the sun so morning walks will be a breeze as I also live down the street from a park and down the road from a forest preserve. I live in a 6-bedroom house, occupied by two adults, backyard is not closed in, but there are many nearby parks available for playtime. 3 pets, 2 bearded dragons enclosed in a separated terrarium which is located upstairs, and a 7 month old cane corso. All are incredibly friendly and curious but can be given their own space if need be.
“Natalie continues to take care of our cats while we enjoy our vacation, we were worried to travel and leave the cats for extended period of time, but Natalie made it all easy and stress free!! Very professional and highly recommended.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since a little kid now I’ve grown to love the fur babies!🦴 I treat them like my own kin every pup is important and never left behind!🐾 Only thing I have to do during the week is school im currently going back to school for a degree however, I will have a lot of free time on my hands for whenever im needed. I have a fenced yard, huge backyard for the pups to play in and have fun as well as toys and more my neighborhood is pretty secure and safe. As far as pups being in my home they will be treated as my own food water the essentials many belly rubs playing around and naps so much more. I currently have a very small pit bull he’s very friendly and he’s just a baby so he’s harmless.
About: For the past ten years, I've had the privilege of working with a diverse range of canine and feline companions, from energetic puppies and kittens to serene senior dogs and cats. My approach is always rooted in patience and love, ensuring every animal feels comfortable and cared for. I have extensive experience in administering medications, a testament to my ability to handle sensitive situations with gentleness and precision. My dedication extends to understanding the unique needs of each animal, fostering a trusting and supportive environment for all. I’m currently working from home and have a lot of flexibility to provide pet sitting in my home , dog walking and drop in visits. I have a gated yard. I can crate your furry friend if needed. I always use a Lesh when walking. I will follow your pet schedules just the way you would at home. I will provide plenty of one on one play time. I am constantly sanatizing and cleaning my home to keep your fur baby safe
“Thank God for good people in this world! We've booked twice with Jacqueline and Ryan and we've been more that pleased with them. They take such good care of our dogs, it's amazing! They are very flexible and accommodating in every way. Jacqueline always returns your calls/messages in a timely fashion and they are very pet conscious! Like their motto says..."we love dogs"... is definitely fitting and it shows. Convenient pick up and drop off. Very reasonable pricing. Excellent care...our dogs come home exhausted from playing and running around in their yard. We are very happy with their services and they are now our new dog groomers as well! Sincerely, Dawn & Paul”
“Lisa is attentive and reliable! I had never used Rover before but we needed someone to feed our cats while we were away. I booked Lisa for multiple drop-in visits based on her reviews and I’m very glad I did. She is communicative and caring. Definitely recommend!”
“Bayli far outdid herself taking care of my furbabies. They got a little rambunctious while their humans were away and created a bit of a mess, with knocking items over and what not. Bayli cleaned up the mess and vacuumed up their sheddings(long hair cats). Not only would I highly recommend her, I will always use her to take care of my littles in the furture!!”
About: My family has had dogs since I was young. I also pet sit for friends and family while they are away on trips. I will care for your pets as if they are my own! I am a teacher so I am off during the summers. I do tutor but am happy to work with you to see what times will work best for us and your pets :) I am more than happy to play with your pets inside (and outside if able) your home, crate if necessary and take walks as needed.
“Gianna is absolutely wonderful! She took such beautiful care of my kitty, and was so understanding and communicative with some last minute unforeseen changes. I’m looking forward to my next trip so Tom (Kitty) can visit with her again!”
“Amanda did a wonderful job with our two cats this weekend! She was very responsive and available pretty last minute, which was amazing. She has lots of cat experience with all ages, and she made me feel very comfortable leaving my cats in her care. Thank you Amanda!”
About: I've taken care of dogs, cats and even reptiles for quite a while now. From caring for my own pets to helping with others, I've had a variety of different experiences. I'm able to walk, feed and/or bathe and take care of any needs you make have. Your pet will truly be in great hands and welcomed with open arms. I work from home so I have greater flexibility throughout the weekdays and weekends. My calendar is published a few months out in advance, for up-to-date, reliable information. I treat all clients' homes with respect when providing care. I complete requests successfully and adhere to all guidelines. Maintaining a safe environment is also a top priority of mine.
About: I grew up around all animals but mostly dogs my whole life. Having up to five dogs at a time as a child, and raising some of them from puppies. Not to mention cats at the same time, some ferrets along the way too. Anyways I love dogs, I'm 100% the person at the party hanging out with the dog instead of the people. I'm a Fairly in shape/active person, so if your dog likes to go for runs and not just walks, I can keep up for a bit. I can also play fetch with the dogs if your looking to get them a little active besides a run/walk. So Hopefully your dogs will like me as much as I probably already love them! When consistently working my late afternoons during the week are available. While I am not working as much I have full availability. My weekends on a regular are open. We go on long walks and she gets a treat when we get back. Play with her fetch, tug o war. She’s not a let’s wrestle type dog but still very playful.

Kiana took great care of my 5 cats while I was gone for 10 days. She sent me daily updates and photos of my cats. She took the time to play with them. She followed my feeding and cleaning instructions to the letter. My house looked exactly as it did when I left. I will no longer hesitate to go out of town now that I know I can reach out to Kiana.
Sammi is very attentive. She listened to and followed through with the tasks requested, even when I had a tendency to change a few ideas from time to time. I definitely felt a lot more comfortable going on my trip with her watching my cats. There are also many other positives I can point out such as her having excellent communication, keeping up with updates, having exceptional people skills (which is still needed when dealing with pets) and truly making an effort to take care of my cats and ensure they and I were comfortable. I appreciated this greatly.
Thank you. Great pet sitter. Reliable and consistent. Even out skittish cat came out for her. She was very patient with him and let him be untill he was ready and brought his food upstairs to make sure he felt.comfortable. She cleaned all around the litter boxes too so we came home to a clean house.
