House Sitting Naperville

“Amanda was great at sending pics and she took care to understand Ollie’s needs and schedule. She brought in all the packages left the house clean.”

About: My parents have a farm with three big dogs and many small ones, I’ve taken care of them many times over the years. I have neighbors and friends reaching out to care for their furry friends while they are out of town. I promise to give your loved furry one the love they would expect on a day to day basis I work from home so if I need to spend the day with your pet I can be there for them as I work! Outside of work hours I can give long walks and tons of play time. If you pet needs extra attention I can provide lots of head pets or give them space if they like to spend their time alone.

“Glen took the time to get to know each dog and let each dog get to know him before agreeing to take us on as clients. We returned home to find a peaceful, clean home and, more importantly, very happy pups.”

“Bonnie communicated with us every day and sent pictures and videos of my dogs. They are senior dogs and need a little more attention which I know that she gave to them. They seemed very happy when we got home. I know that’s because she took great care of them. We would definitely get Bonnie to sit for us again.”

“Ashley took good care of our beagle Lucy while we were out of town. She was very patient our Lucy, who is on the nervous side when her people are away. This was the 1st time Lucy had been left at home with a pet sitter. By the 2nd night she was sleeping on the bed with Ashley! We were very happy with our experience having Ashley stay at our home taking care of Lucy. Would definitely book with Ashley again in the future!”

Susan B.

“Sandra was amazing. She was very responsive with communication. Our girls were so well taken care of. Enjoyed seeing the pics she sent showing our happy girls. She left the house in perfect order. Will reach out to her again.”

“Alexandria watched our puppy and we had zero complaints. She offered and initial visit to make sure we were a match, and to get to know us and our dog before booking. She was very professional about all her questions and listened thoroughly to our pups routine and schedule. She kept us updated with pictures and was very flexible with us. I appreciated her very much and will rebook when needed.”

“Gabi had a great time watching after our house and dog Sonya! She was respectful of our home and we recommend her to everyone. Especially big dog owners!”

About: Are you looking for the BEST pup 🐶 sitter look no further! Want someone who knows dogs inside and out! I’m your girl! I will love your pups like they are my own. Don’t DELAY bookings go fast! Filling up already for holidays no more summer bookings available!If you want to secure a booking with me don’t wait! My repeats alone are huge. See what sets me above all others❤️ What’s sets me apart from other sitters LOVE 💕. When your fur baby is in my care they are truly loved when they are staying here in my home. This is their home when you are away! My repeat customers alone are numerous because of this exact love we give them. I have rescued dogs and cats for over 12 years!! Our household is an animal heaven. Our family truly bonds with your fur baby. I love caring for our four legged family members. I am trust worthy and patient. I have a large yard fenced in yard with lots of room for play. (There also lots of animals who are in the area fyi. Some dogs have been known to grab what’s leftover from hawks or coyotes). I am great with puppies and puppy training lots of positive reinforcement. I do not take care of senior pups with mobility issues or are blind. Will play with them and give lots of attention to. I have boarded dogs, cats, bunnies and hamsters. I understand when attention is needed. I however do not allow anyone in my home during meet n greet or at time of drop off. Meet n greets are held outside in my front yard. I also do not pick up or do drops off unless you are local. Please know I only crate if the owner crates. Pups are free to roam home and are never confined or restrained in any way shape or form. I am vetted and background checked unfortunately owners are not so please understand. Also at time of drop offs and picks they will all be done outside. DROP Off and P/U times are somewhat flexible as I have teenagers to drop off at school and athletics. If your flight leaves in the am drop offs are the night before as to not stress the entire family with trying to get out the door. If your flight is afternoon again drop offs are between 5am-7am. IF your flight is early morning I require drop off the night before. Often it’s too stressful on the family and pup for rush drop offs. Accurate TIMES that are entered is critical. If you enter for instance 5am-7am and that is fine but if your flight is leaving at 7:45am please please correspond with me the day before in an accurate time as I know airlines love to change times on their customers. 😂. I base my day and my families day around what you enter. Also sometimes I may have to ask for an accommodation from you on my end if one of my teens has an appt. I am a widow trying to raise my three teens on my own. So please understand. I try my best to accommodate if you get a late start because you are getting ready and fall behind but please also understand I have my families commitments also and it might end in me not being able to take the reservation last minute. Communication is much needed on both of our ends. Emergencies happen. Illness, hospitalization and flights totally get it and I’ve often waived extra days for pup owners. I’ve actually had people who dog sit also who decide when they will drop off or arrive at their convenience even though we had agreed on a time in the messages. I ask for mutual understanding and respect of both of our timelines. If you enter a time frame of 1-8 pm it needs to be revised to a more accurate time. I have specific times in the am and pm for drop off. Again I do not do pick ups or drop offs. Pups need to be brought to me. Many pup owners are anxious and are first time Rover. Drop offs would be like a child always best to let me bring pup in alone. Long good byes simply aren’t good for your pup as you linger. Please no peanut butter cbd as my teenagers have peanut allergies. I can provide pictures of house. I am pretty flexible and can attend to your pets needs. I am able to take in pet families with more than one. I have the space to place pups on separate floors. There are times when drop offs and picks ups overlap with other pups. It is inevitable that this will happen. I am constantly busy. Circumstances do come up and some pet owners need emergency help so at times more then one pup might be in home. Flights get canceled etc. and I wouldn’t toss any pup out. Rest assured I won’t ever expose your pup when cross over times happen. So please understand as your flight might get canceled or traffic is horrible. Some things are out of ones control. I am a widowed mom and some things pop up and some flexibility is needed on my end from time to time. Please be sure to leave or update times of drop off and pickup as your travel approaches. I plan according to your times on any other commitments. If your dog requires brushing I will charge for grooming. I do not groom unless it’s been booked. Also please review my 7 day cancellation. It is also crucial that your spouse/partner has access to the pet reservation should your phone break/get lost. Provide emergency contacts and vet. Please consider me for your pets needs. Thank you for your consideration. Have a great day. Also please no peanut products my teenagers are allergic. I also don’t do pick ups or drops offs unless u are local DG. Also as for senior pups, this is crucial as many senior pups who are experiencing anxiety will often have loose stool and experience anxiety on a a different level since some are experiencing doggie dementia and do not understand being with another family. A senior pups stay no matter how much we love them and care for them can experience a difficult stay. If your senior pups have difficulty walking and have doggie dementia a long stay sometimes can be hard on them. Doggie anxiety meds are needed. My routine begins at 5am. Outside time begins along with feedings. Lots of yard time during the day. Simple routine with lots time for fur babies. I’ve been taking care of fur babies for over 12 years and have no problem fitting a fur baby into a routine. I do prefer early am drop offs. Between the hours of 6am-8:30(at the latest or after 4:30/5pm. I do keep to a time schedule and I often have other commitments planned around when you give a time for drop off or pick up so it’s important to keep this in mind. I also have three teenage mini adults. So there are times or things that can come up such as dr appts I may need to bring them to. In general pics and updates are in the am and late afternoon/pm. I do not allow anyone in my home for meet n greets or drop offs/pick ups. As I am vetted pup owners are not and I unfortunately have had some unfortunate experiences. So please understand I am a widow raising three kids on my own and safety is my utmost priority. I do run kids to and from school along with other appts. So I do ask for time forgiveness at times as I would do the same for unexpected situations on your end as well with flight cancellations and traffic delays. Pups are never ever crated unless specified from the owner. Pups are free to roam home. I typically do not drive to pick up or drop off unless u live within a 5 minute radius of my home. Also no peanut treats or peanut butter my teenagers are allergic. I take the utmost care for your fur baby! Huge fenced in yard for pups to roam, run and Play! We have lots of frisbees, tennis balls and toys! They are taken outside several times a day for lots of outside time depending on weather. They are never left alone in the fenced in yard (please be advised I live where there are a lot of animals in the area coyotes and hawks have been known to leave leftovers in the yard). I am out there with them but cannot guarantee that by the time I get to the back of the yard it’s not consumed. I cannot guarantee a tick might not attach as this is just life and it happens. Please make sure to have your pets up to date on shots and flea and tick prevention. Especially since the bigger dogs are free to roam the fenced in yard. You can feel confident that the safety and environment while here in my home will be taken. Remember to always include a paper bio as well as all important information for your pet. As I always do my best to adhere to your times of being fed sometimes feedings times are adjusted to our daily routine. Senior pups can experience depression, if they suffer from mobility and are on meds sometimes the vet is the best place for them. Please understand many pups who suffer from doggie dementia, mobility issues have a very hard time away from you and will not eat, take meds or drink water. They are best with a vet. Please always consult your vet for proper care anti anxiety meds etc if you decide to board your n someone’s home. I have seen some pups who suffer from mobility issues prior to their visit, doggie dementia have a slight decline to to confusion etc. please board your senior dog with any of these issue at your vet for the best care when doggie dementia, mobility issues and anxiety is present. senior dogs: • Stress and anxiety: Senior dogs, especially those with cognitive decline, can be more susceptible to stress and anxiety when they're suddenly removed from their familiar surroundings and placed in a new environment. This stress can manifest in various ways, like pacing, barking, refusal to eat, and even worsening of cognitive symptoms. • Disruption of routine: Dogs, especially older ones, thrive on routine. Boarding facilities, while aiming to provide consistent care, may still have different schedules for feeding, exercise, and interaction compared to what the dog is used to at home. This disruption can be unsettling and increase anxiety. • Difficulty navigating a new environment: Senior dogs with mobility issues or vision/hearing loss may find a new environment disorienting and challenging to navigate. This can lead to fear of approach and handling, irritability, and decreased activity levels. • Increased risk of illness: Stress senior dogs: • Stress and anxiety: Senior dogs, especially those with cognitive decline, can be more susceptible to stress and anxiety when they're suddenly removed from their familiar surroundings and placed in a new environment.

About: I am newer to the pet care game but I have had experience taking care of my friends pets while they are out of town. I will always make sure they have been fed, walked, and whatever special requests the owner has. I work full time so I’m mostly looking for stuff do on weekends or evenings right now. I’m looking forward to meeting your pets and helping give them the care they need! I will not be able to keep pets in my apartment, but I will try to be as consistent with your schedule as possible so your pets can feel more stable as long as you’re gone.

“I can't recommend Jed highly enough! He truly saved the day by accepting my booking at the very last minute. He was incredibly accommodating, friendly, and professional. Most importantly, Mazi adored him. I will definitely be booking with him again!”

About: I have been around dogs my entire life, starting when my mom and I rescued a Corgi when I was ten years old. In College, I adopted a German/ Sheppard Pit Bull Mix named ACE and he taught me a lot about taking care of animals on my own and growing as a human being. Not just walks, but attention, exercise, discipline, and sacrifice 24/7. I am a genuine, reliable person that has a lot of free time as a hockey broadcaster in my summers and I want to help you take care of your dog in a loving, reliable, and most importantly flexible way for you or your family. I live in Naperville, IL and willing to accommodate close to 10 miles:) I Only work weekends, so I can work through the week! Sundays are also a good day for me too usually, I am a sports broadcaster so I have weird hours haha but free a lot in the summer :) Big walking guy, with trails and local suburb paths for us. Water is always out, and toys and calm music if need be. Treats and fun always.

About: While I'm new to Rover, I’ve grown up with pets my entire life, from dogs and cats to all kinds of pocket pets, so caring for animals has always been a big part of who I am. I genuinely love being around animals and making sure they feel safe, happy, comfortable, and cared for. I've committed my career to caring for pets, and for the past five years I’ve also worked in client services at an animal hospital, which has given me even more experience understanding pets and their individual needs. I’ve learned how important patience, kindness, attention to detail, and communication are when caring for someone’s beloved pet. I’ve cared for dogs and cats for family and friends over the years, and I currently pet-sit for an adorable senior dog multiple times a week. I’m comfortable with everything from walks, feeding, playtime, and cuddles to giving medications and providing overnight, in-home care. I know that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I love getting to know those little quirks that make them who they are. Whether your pet is playful and energetic, shy and needs some time to warm up, or a senior who needs a little extra patience, I’m committed to making sure they get the care and attention they need and building trust with the client. Most importantly, I understand that when you hire someone to care for your pet, you’re trusting them with a member of your family. I take that trust seriously and want both you and your pet to feel completely comfortable with me. I’ll treat your pets with the same love, patience, and care I would want for my own, while keeping you updated so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I’d love the opportunity to get to know you and your furry family members! Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine! I work full-time at an animal hospital, so caring for animals is already a big part of my day. I’m available for pet care every day after 7 PM, as well as all day Tuesdays, before noon on Thursdays, after 2 PM on Saturdays, and all day Sundays. If needed, I'm also available for an early morning drop-in before my shifts. • Monday (off for Labor Day 9/7): 7:20 AM–7:00 PM • Tuesday: Off • Wednesday: 7:20 AM–5:00 PM • Thursday: 12:30 PM–6:00 PM • Friday: 9:00 AM–7:00 PM • Alternating Saturdays (starting 9/5/26): 7:50 AM–2:00 PM I’m happy to work with pet parents to find a schedule that fits their pet’s routine, whether that’s an evening walk or drop-in, medication administration, quality time, or overnight care. I currently provide pet care in my clients’ homes, where I can help pets feel comfortable by keeping them in their familiar environment and maintaining their usual routines. I’m happy to provide drop-in visits, walks, feeding, playtime, medication administration when needed, and plenty of quality time and attention. I’m also available for overnight pet sitting in your home if your pet would benefit from having someone there with them overnight. Because I have a cat at home who isn’t comfortable around unfamiliar animals, I typically don’t offer boarding in my own home. My focus is on making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away.

“Sarah was amazing with our dog who isn’t always the easiest! She followed instructions and was so great with communication and sending lots of pictures. Our house was spotless when we returned as well. I feel like our dog was in great hands the entire time we were gone. She is such a professional and we will definitely contact her in the future when we need a dog sitter!”
