Highlights
Pet care experience
Professional pet lover & sitter!
I understand how difficult leaving your pet with someone else can be! They are, after all part of our family! I’ve had pets all my life, from goldfish to parakeets, guinea pigs to bunnies, cats and of dogs from big to small, and special needs rescues. I have experience in dog walking, overnight stays, administering medications, seniors, and special needs pets. I can assure you that I will not only complete any and all tasks you request of me, I will also do them with love, patience, and above all, safety. My goal is to make sure your pet feels as comfortable, safe, and loved as my own! I will pay close attention to your instructions and keep your pet on its routine to ensure as little stress as possible while you are away. I am big on communicating, sending pictures and videos, and making sure YOU are as stress free as I intend your pets to be! 😌 I am also highly aware of how worrisome leaving the care of your home to someone is and can assure you I am respectful in each and every home I stay in, keeping it tidy and cared for as per your instructions. Besides adoring animals, I am passionate about my family, the outdoors, music and working on growing my other businesses. I was the owner of a small mani/pedi business and boutique in downtown Hinsdale, IL for 25 yrs.during which time I also studied and offered foot reflexology. It was also during this time that I first started caring for clients pets and homes while they traveled. Unfortunately due to health issues and the onset of Co-Vid, I was forced to close my shop. I do however continue foot reflexology massage for die hard clients in their homes today! My love for creativity also lives on in a hobby turned hopeful business of painting small pieces of furniture. A particular niche of end tables turned into pet beds is becoming my new favorite 🤩. I would love to schedule a meet and greet with you and your pet! It is an essential part of the process for first time clients, as forming a bond with your pet and establishing a good fit for everyone is a top priority!

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
While I currently am not able to board animals at my home, a good portion of my business is caring for them in yours. They are treated with patience and compassion, and receive all the love and attention that I give my own with safety being my number one concern. I will look after your home and be happy to help out with any extra needs you may have (water plants, check mail, take out garbage, etc.)
Ratings and reviews
Betsy did a great job house-sitting for us to look after our two cats. They seemed to get along with her very well! She kept us well updated as well. Would definitely recommend Betsy and would use her services again!
I felt comfortable leaving my dog with Betsy. She is very friendly. I look forward to having her stay with Miyagi in the future.
We loved having Elizabeth stay with our little, old man. She took excellent care of him and our home while we were away for Spring Break. Very glad we found her!
Elizabeth is amazing! Took wonderful care of my very high needs dog and was great at communicating. We will definitely be using her again!
Betsy was fantastic with my cat while I was away and followed his routine. She sent photos and videos which greatly reduced any stress I had about being away.
Beth is an amazing person who showers our dogs with love. We are so grateful to have found such a trusting, caring dog sitter.

Schedule
I currently work part-time both from home and out of clients homes as described above, and have flexible hours. Traveling more than 8 miles from my home base of Villa Park for dog walks and drop ins are a bit more tricky, but overnights are not a problem for a distance up to 15 miles.
