Pet Sitting Mylith Park

“I don’t have enough positive things to say about Megan!! She did such a great job with our sweet babies and we had no worries about the safety and security of dogs in her care. We had some issues with our garage door opener (our fault) and Megan was quick to call us and jump through the hoops to get into our house!! We are very grateful for her care and attention to our dogs and when we travel again… we will absolutely reach out to Megan again!! Thank you so much - Margaret & Jim”

“Great experience with Dorothy. Kept my 2 dogs and 3 cats well loved and cared for while I was away. She provided helpful updates and pictures. Would seek out her services again in the future.”

About: As a proud dog mom of three, I know firsthand that dogs are family! I have experience caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities, from energetic pups to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and attention. My own dogs include a Labrador mix, a Pitbull rescue, and a Chihuahua/Dachshund mix, so I’m very familiar with different energy levels, temperaments, and exercise needs. I understand the importance of safe walks, consistency, positive reinforcement, and paying attention to each dog’s individual needs. Whether your dog loves a brisk, adventurous walk or prefers a slower stroll with plenty of sniffing, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and cared for. I’m dependable, attentive, and treat every dog with the same love and respect I give my own. I also understand how important communication is, so you can expect updates and photos while your furry family member is in my care! As a proud dog mom of three, caring for dogs is already a big part of my everyday life! I understand the importance of regular exercise, consistency, and giving dogs the attention they deserve. I enjoy being outdoors, staying active, and making sure every dog gets the physical activity and mental stimulation they need. Dog walking fits naturally into my lifestyle, and I love the opportunity to help other pet parents keep their furry family members happy, healthy, and well cared for! Your dog’s safety, happiness, and well-being are always my top priorities. As an experienced dog owner, I understand that every dog has a unique personality, comfort level, and routine. When caring for your dog, I follow your instructions closely, use secure leashes and harnesses, and stay attentive to my surroundings during walks. I’m mindful of weather conditions, traffic, other animals, and each dog’s individual physical abilities. I respect your home, maintain your pet’s established routine, and make sure they receive plenty of patience, affection, and positive attention. I also believe communication is essential, so I’ll provide updates and photos to give you peace of mind. I treat every dog as if they were my own, because I know how much trust it takes to put your beloved pet in someone else’s care!

About: I have had dogs, cats and pets of all types since childhood. Often referred to as “The chosen one” in my own home because of my relationship with our dog and cat. I am frequently asked to look after our neighbors dogs. Experienced at administering injections and IV fluids as well. I am recently retired and find myself with far more free time. Weekdays are a particularly good time for me to be available to care for animals I have a dog (Bandit) and a cat (Dublin) who are given love and attention to the point of being spoiled rotten. They are fed regularly and responsibly with the highly sought after treat from time to time. Walks are non negotiable for Bandit and both get a heavy dose of play time as well as some quality chill time together.

About: I've been around dogs since I've had a working memory. From friend's, family's, neighbor's to my own I've watched and cared for many different dogs of many different sizes and needs. Dogs are a joy and a privilege to care for and deserve the best. I've worked with pups to pops and enjoy both :) I currently work part time in the mornings. Whether your pet/s need to be fed/let out, walked or just needs company I know I'll find time to give them the attention and care they deserve. If I'm pet sitting, I'm able to stay in you're home and give your pets all the attention they could dream of. Chill, lazy dog? Nothing like relaxing outside or watching TV getting pets and cuddles. Adventurous hounds? Lots of walks and play. I tailor the pet care your fur babies need to fit their lives and personalities. I work 1:1 with pet families so that your pets get all of my attention.

“EXCELLENT person to hire for your furry loves! He is so attentive, caring and a true dogs man! Beyond trust worthy and always sends awesome photo updates! He brought our dog to our Wedding Ceremony for us, above and beyond service and care!!!!”

“Ashley took great care of my cats, followed instructions, and sent pictures each day of their play time. One of my shy cats came out to play with her each day. Would book again!”

About: I grew up with dogs for 20+ years. Large and small. I love animals and care about providing the best care for them! I have watched and lived with small, medium, and large dogs. I currently work from home and have a very flexible schedule to be able to drop in. I can make any time work! I do generally have 1-3 work calls a day where I may have to flex the drop in schedules by 30 minutes. Whenever sitting for my neighbors' cats, I always make sure to try to match their energy. I also try to provide a calm environment. If the cats are up for playing, I always make sure to spend quality time and help get their energy out each day. I also take their health and safety very seriously.

“Great job. On time, dogs seemed contented. He also carefully observed our request that he not get his face close to Bertie's (he sometimes nips), yet managed to show him affection, etc.”

About: I truly believe every dog deserves to feel loved, comfortable, and understood. I have experience caring for dogs through all stages of life, including seniors who need a little extra patience and attention. I’m dependable, attentive to their individual personalities and routines, and I’ll treat your pup like they’re my own. 🐾❤️ Dog care fits naturally into my routine! I love getting outside for walks and spending time at the nearby dog park, which is just 5 minutes from me. I’m especially available for evening walks and weekend visits, and I enjoy giving each pup plenty of exercise, attention, and love. 🐾 I keep things comfortable, safe, and consistent with their normal routine. I follow feeding and walking schedules, give plenty of attention and playtime, and make sure they feel comfortable in their own environment. Fenced in back yard. I’ll always treat your home and your pets with the same care and respect I would my own.🐾❤️

About: I've had pets all through late childhood and into adulthood. I currently live in an apartment that makes owning pets difficult, but I love nothing more than to snuggle up on the couch with a fluffy friend and a book. I've been able to get my "puppy fix" by petsitting for friends and family. I'm the one they call when they'll be out of town or working late to take care of their fluffy family member. I'm looking for more dogs and cats to add to my life long friend list. I currently work full time, 1 evening a week. I don't have any pets of my own to take care of, so I'm pretty flexible when it comes to taking care of others' pets. I love taking dogs for walks or hikes. I'm available to come and visit a pet to give companionship, meals, potty breaks, etc. I have experience with puppies as well as senior pets.

“Jessica is an amazing lady! She is dependable and her communication is great. My boys love her. I have such a comfort knowing that she is the one taking care of them while we are away. We will be using her services in the future.”

About: I have always had dogs and cats in my life, currently have three dogs and three cats at home. Have always wanted to work in animal care it’s my dream job. Love being around them all. will always make sure dogs are happy when you return. Will bring new toys and treats if need be. Have been through training with dogs to learn how to get basic commands down and to learn how to walk better with any size dog. A little about me is I work at an animal hospital, so enjoy caring for all animals. enjoy talking with people and getting to know people, I enjoy being outdoors so being able to be outside with dogs makes it that much better. Would love to be the next person to care for your pet!

“We were so lucky to find Kaitlyn! She responded quickly and was able to take on the job with very short notice, which we really appreciated. From the start, her communication was incredible—she sent detailed updates every visit along with adorable photos and videos that gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Not only did she take great care of our cats, but she also went above and beyond by bringing in our packages and even cleaning up without us asking. It’s rare to find someone so thoughtful and thorough. We’ll absolutely be using Kaitlyn again and couldn’t recommend her more!”

About: I've been a lifelong dog lover and currently have a Golden Retriever/Irish Setter who keeps me active with plenty of walks, playtime, and adventures. Caring for my own high energy dog has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and giving each dog the attention they deserve. Whether your pup loves long walks, belly rubs, fetch, or simply having a companion nearby, I'll make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. I treat every dog as if they were my own and strive to provide the same level of care and affection I'd want for my own pet :) I currently work part-time on some weekends in Huntley, IL (Friday–Sunday), but I’m generally very flexible and available during the week! I just ask for a few days’ notice whenever possible so I can make sure I’m able to give your pet the time and attention they deserve. 😊 I’d also love to set up a meet & greet with you and your fur baby before our first visit! It’s a great opportunity for us to get acquainted, learn about your pet’s personality and routine, and make sure they feel comfortable with me. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. While I do have a spacious corner lot with a secure tie-out area for supervised outdoor time, the majority of my services take place in your home where your pet is most comfortable and can maintain their normal routine. During walks and drop-in visits, I'll follow all care instructions closely, ensure your pet has fresh water, exercise, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention. I'll treat both your pet and your home with the same respect and care that I would my own, and I'll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident knowing your furry family member is in good hands.

“We couldn't be happier with the care Melissa provided for our sweet girl, Sophie, over the past few days! Right from the initial meet and greet, Melissa impressed us. She was extremely patient and knew exactly how to approach Sophie, letting her get comfortable at her own pace (having training treats in her pocket certainly didn't hurt either!). Throughout the stay, Melissa excelled at communication. She kept us in the loop continuously, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. The regular updates and absolutely fantastic photos she sent made our day every single time. On top of that, she was wonderfully flexible with timing based on our schedule when we arrived back home. It is completely clear that this isn't just a job for Melissa, but a genuine passion. Our precious pup was happy, comfortable, and truly treated like family in her care. If you are looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and skilled dog sitter who truly loves what she does, hire Melissa. We will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”

About: I am DEFINITELY an animal person! I live a very active lifestyle so I am more than happy to go out and play with your pets, but also just as satisfied relaxing and cuddling! I have had dogs my entire life and think they truly are a mans' best friend. Growing up, I have taken care of the two dogs I have had (maltese and pitbull) a lot, as my parents have gone out of town for work.

About: I am a lifelong dog parent, with over 4 decades of experience with many different breeds; ranging from Terriers to Labs, Shepherds, Huskys, Bully Breeds, Hounds, Herding dogs, Sporting and Working breeds, Toy groups, and many mixed breeds. I am home nearly around the clock, and committed full time to giving great care and attention to my highly -valued dog guests. I have spent decades frequenting the lake county dog parks; studying their behaviors and interactions with other dogs and with people, which has been an invaluable learning experience for me. I have a very laid back and easy-going approach and style that I have had great success with in relating to and connecting with dogs and their pet parents. I am very tuned in to their body language, and very adept at reading their emotions. My home is on a 1/2 acre fenced in wooded lot with a cabin like interior and country atmosphere that is both welcoming , safe, and fun for my dog guests, and I make it a top priority to treat your dogs like family. I also have lake access with a private beach if your dog(s) like to swim. I frequent the lake county dog parks and would love to take your dogs along if that is something you are comfortable with. I am very flexible - and typically available 7 days per week. I am available nights, weekends, and holidays. Ideally allow for two days advance notice. Safety is my top priority. I have a 1/2 acre fenced in lot, and a very warm and comfortable dog friendly home, that was once a summer cottage close to Round Lake. I am on a quiet dead end road which is very safe for walks, as well as freedom to roam the yard. My goal is to customize my services to meet your dogs needs, whatever they may be. I will treat your pets as I do my own- like family- lots of fun, exercise and plenty of TLC.
