House Sitting Minooka

“Sarah was amazing with our pack of geriatric pets! She sent pictures every day, and she communicated everything really well. Taking care of our pets is somewhat complicated because of their ages, but Sarah took detailed notes and nailed everything perfectly. Our house was nice and clean when we came home. Sarah was also flexible with our flight delays and stayed an extra night to make sure there was no gap in care while we were struggling to get home. We really couldn't have asked for a better, more trustworthy person to take care of our babies. Thank you so much, Sarah, you were amazing!”

About: I have been caring for animals my entire life and have experience with a wide variety of pets, including dogs, cats, birds, fish, bearded dragons, hamsters, and guinea pigs. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have provided pet sitting and house sitting services for friends, family members, and neighbors over the years. I am available to walk, feed, and care for your pets while you're away, as well as clean up after them and provide companionship to help them feel comfortable and loved in your absence. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy and dependable. I currently have a 6-year-old Great Dane/Saint Bernard mix, a 7-year-old Red Heeler/Pointer mix, and two cats, giving me hands-on experience with pets of different sizes, breeds, and personalities. I currently work part-time, I stay home with my kids during the week. They are in school full time during the school year.. I have a lot of free time I would walk the dogs or let them out. Whatever is preferred. We can discuss scheduling and the needs of everyone involved. Flexible and reliable

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover! I grew up with two wonderful dogs and I’ve raised my three cats since they were kittens, so I understand just how much care, patience, and attention pets need to feel safe and happy. They’re part of my family, and I treat every animal I care for with that same level of love and respect. I also really enjoy spending time with pets and getting to know their unique personalities. Whether your pet is playful and energetic or more laid back and cuddly, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at and make sure they feel comfortable while you’re away. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I take that responsibility seriously. You can count on me to provide reliable, attentive care for your furry loved ones! I work full time remotely, so as long as I can bring my laptop I can work from anywhere with wifi. I take frequent breaks so I can play with and give your pets plenty of attention. I take careful attention to detail when it comes to care instructions and the things that make every pet unique. I’m very flexible and adaptive; always happy to accommodate their needs.

“Jason did a great job watching our German shepherd and our Lab He came out to meet them before and stayed 2 days and nights. Jason is reliable and a great sitter we will definitely use him again”

About: I have plenty of free time to give your pets the attention they deserve. I treat each pet like family, offering personalized care, companionship, and comfort. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or cuddles, I ensure your pets feel safe, loved, and well-cared for while you’re away. I enjoy having a routine, and caring for a dog fits perfectly into my day. With my current schedule as a full-time online student, I have plenty of time to give pets the attention, care, and companionship they need. When caring for pets in my home, I keep my own Shih Tzu (8-year-old female) in her own room and take each dog out separately when needed. I ensure they get 2-3 walks a day, feed them as directed, play with them, and allow them to roam freely. I make sure all their needs are met. When taking care of pets in a client’s home, I follow the owner’s instructions, taking their pet out 2-3 times a day on a walk and feeding as directed.

“I cannot recommend Diane enough! She is everything you hope to find in a caregiver for your little fuzzy family. We will keep having her as long as she'll have us.”

Erin M.

“Jennifer was very patient with my three dogs, and took care of them as of they were her own. She managed their medications and even gave shots every other day. I would have appreciated more updates from her, but if she needed anything, she did reach out.”

“The highest number of stars we could give Christine is 5 but she deserves many more. We planned a last-minute trip and our usual dog/house sitters weren't available. We went to Rover and found Christine. We met with her prior to our trip and instantly knew that our pups would be in the perfect hands with Christine. She went above and beyond any expectations we had. She kept in close contact with us and cared for our Emma and Fergus like they were her own. We rescued Fergus a year ago and, other than my husband and me, he is afraid of humans. Christine is the first "stranger" to be able to pet him which is huge progress in getting Fergus to overcome his fear. The day we left, Christine sent us a video of Emma and Fergus running and playing in our yard, so we knew that they had adjusted quickly. It didn't take long for them to warm up to Christine! Christine will always be our go-to when we go out of town. We completely trust her with our fur-babies and in our home.”
