House Sitting in Nachusa

“My pups took to Samantha immediately upon meeting her! Given that one of them can be real standoffish with people, we were shocked! Both of them sensed that she truly was a dog person and immediately bonded with her. She's mature and reliable and kept up wonderful communication with us throughout our trip. It gave us so much peace of mind seeing them. So happy in the pictures and knowing that they were being loved. Highly recommend she will be our first person we go to for future bookings.”

About: I have been a dog/cat/house sitter for my family and friends for over 20 yrs. I will take care of your pets like my own I currently have a lot of time on my hands. I had to say goodbye to my dog last year and wanted to help other owners with theirs until I’m ready to adopt one of my own. That’s going to take some time. I’m I will have a lot of fun with pet(s). I enjoy going to the park or a hiking trail or staying in the backyard. They will be cared for and receive many hags and kisses. I understand the importance of a routine for some pets and will do whatever I can to keep them safe and happy.

About: With five-years experience I have worked with a variety of pets that include: small animals; such as hamsters and guinea pigs, small and large breeds of dogs, and cats of all ages. I'm currently working a full-time job Monday through Friday 6:30am to 4pm and Saturdays 6am to 11am. I am available during the evenings starting 5pm and on Sundays. When it comes to care for your pets my top priority is creating a safe, calming atmosphere where they are free to be themselves. Proper play, some lite grooming, and a variety of other services are provided in my care.

About: multiple years in animal shelter care, experience as a veterinarian assistant, aspiring veterinary student wide variety of experience: puppies - senior care, as well as experience with fearful/reactive animals As of now, I would be able to walk or drop in on dogs as needed. I am a student having summers off, which makes my schedule flexible. I understand that our animals may feel more comfortable in their own home. Unfortunately, my own pets don’t allow for play dates at my house. I am more than willing to spend time with your pups in the comfort of your own home.

About: I’ve taken care of many animals for some time now whether it be lizards, cats, dogs, or fish. Family and friends could always put their trust in me when I take care of their pets. I own a cat so I take care of him daily, feed him twice a day, give him toys, bathe him ever so often (depending if he goes outside), brush him because he has long fur. So he fits right in with my schedule and I give him cuddles all the time! I care for my pet everyday! I feed him twice a day ( morning and night) maybe a few treats, I’ll bathe him when needed but not too often cause it hurts their fur coat, clip his nails when needed, brush him just about everyday. I will especially give him cuddles whenever I see him!

About: I would be a great choice as your pet sitter because I have extensive experience in pet care, particularly with cats and dogs, ensuring they receive the attention, exercise, and affection they need. I am highly responsible, detail-oriented, and committed to following your pet’s routine, including feeding, administering medication if needed, and keeping their environment clean—especially when it comes to maintaining fresh and odor-free litter boxes. Beyond basic care, I love engaging pets in fun activities, whether it’s interactive play, walks, or simply providing companionship to ease separation anxiety. With me, you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in caring and capable hands Caring for your pet is a key part of my daily and weekly routine, from feeding and grooming to playtime and cuddles. Most importantly I will be ensuring their health and happiness while balancing my other responsibilities I will provide attentive care for your pet by ensuring they are fed, exercised, groomed, and given plenty of affection while following any special instructions to keep them healthy and comfortable

About: From nose ears to little pads I know what's going on with my little guys being very big on doing things myself so that way I catch when things are not right with them.

“We cannot recommend Angela highly enough! Angela provided peace of mind during our vacation and our four furry kids were calm and happy when we returned. It is clear that they were happy, cared for, and stress-free while we were gone. One of our dogs is a bit more nervous than the others, so Angela dropped in a few times leading up to our trip to help our pup get used to her. I cannot imagine this experience going any better!”

About: The first time I had to pickup dog poop, I cried; 32 years later, I can scoop poop without shedding a tear. I’ve had dogs and cats since I was 4 years old — I currently have one dog (Walter, 2) and two cats (Diane, 17, and Babycat, 13). Walter LOVES other dogs and wishes I would get him a permanent sibling, but it’s not in the cards just yet, so we’re on Rover to fill the void! I work from home, so Walter’s new best friend/your dog will have my undivided attention and most likely be annoyed with my constant affection in no time! I have a fenced in yard for quick potty breaks & playtime. My dog Walter will be a constant source of entertainment and friendship, while my cats will perch in high places and watch your dog from afar. (Basically, they’ll just… be cats???)

“Stephanie was great. Kept in touch about our kitty every day and sent photos over text. I highly recommend”

About: I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m really patient, whether it’s a puppy still learning or an older pet that needs things slower and a little extra care. I’m comfortable sticking to routines, giving meds if needed, and paying attention to small changes so nothing gets missed. I want you to feel at ease while you’re away, knowing your pet is safe, cared for, and getting lots of love. my flexible school schedule allows me to easily prioritize pet care around classes, ensuring your cat receives dedicated attention and reliable visits exactly when needed. my routine focuses on maintaining their specific feeding and litter schedules while providing professional medical monitoring, play and quiet companionship without the stress of travel.

About: I have always had a special connection with animals, dogs especially, and grown up being called an animal whisper. Ive had dogs of all ages my whole life. I have experience with puppies, adults and senior dog care. Currently learning more and more about training dogs and using thoes techniques on my husky mix. Im all for giving your furry friends the care they deserve❤️I dont have any cats! I am currently working at an Assisted Living and Memory Care Facility in Yorkville and my shift is 6am-2pm. My schedule changes every other week. Although my boyfriend works the 3pm-11pm shift so someone is home most of the time. I am not totally free but I would be willing to work something out! My house has a front and back yard-not too big. We use a tie out for our dog and we have a few extras if needed for your dog! Me and my boyfriend live in a two bedroom duplex. Most areas of the house is dog proofed and we have plenty of toys for both to play with. My dog does really good with other dogs and loves to have company and a friend to play with. He is still younger so he can be hyper at first but will eventually calm down:)
