House Sitting New Lenox

“Roisin was amazing with Estes. It was her second time watching him when we came to town to visit family. She sat with him for a few hours while we went to dinner. She was prompt and had fun playing games with Estes. Estes takes a while to warm up to people but seems to feel comfortable with her right away. We appreciate her so much. We highly recommend her.”

About: Growing up, I've always had animals in the house. To me, they're my babies! Being around animals is something I genuinely enjoy, and I know how important it is to make sure your fur babies feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Being a dog mom myself, I understand the love (and sometimes anxiety!) that comes with trusting someone else to care for your babies. Having an energetic Boxer of my own has taught me how important it is to keep dogs active and entertained, while adopting a puppy who's nervous around men has taught me how important patience, trust, and letting a dog warm up at their own pace can be. Every pet has their own personality, and I love getting to know what makes each one feel happy and safe. I'm happy to help with walks, feeding, playtime, drop-in visits, overnights, and just about anything else your babies might need! My goal is to make your pets feel right at home while giving you peace of mind! I'm currently in school, but my schedule is pretty flexible! I have classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 8 AM to 11 AM, so I'm available the rest of the week for walks, drop-ins, day stays, and overnights. Having a dog of my own with lots of energy, I know that sometimes they just need a good walk, someone to throw the ball around with, or a little extra attention to keep them entertained while you're away. Every dog is different, so whatever your baby needs, please feel free to ask! Whether it's something simple or something specific to their routine, I'm happy to work with you and figure out what works best. Don't be afraid to reach out! Being a dog mom myself, I know how much love goes into caring for your fur babies and how nerve-racking it can be to leave them in someone else's care. I think it's important to keep their routine as normal as possible while you're away, from their usual feeding times and walks to potty breaks and playtime. I want them to feel comfortable in their own environment instead of feeling like everything has changed just because you're gone. I'm patient and attentive to each pet's personality and needs, and I'm always happy to send pictures and videos so you can see what your babies are up to! I miss my own even when I'm just running to the grocery store, so trust me, I get it. I'll happily send updates so you can feel connected to your babies while you're away.

About: Hello there! After recently saying goodbye to our beloved senior Chihuahua, Moe, our home feels far too quiet without any furry friends. Starting this new chapter in pet care is very exciting, and I'm looking forward to giving your pet a safe and fun place to stay. I am the primary sitter but will be assisted by my girlfriend Sam who lives with me. Your dog will benefit from a multi-person home with plenty of attention and companionship. We have no pets or children so your furry friend will be the king or queen of the house! Whether your pet needs a quiet spot to lounge or energetic play sessions and walks, I am flexible to their personality. I have cared for pets of all shapes and sizes for family & friends over the years. I pride myself in being attentive to your pet along with flexible and easy to work with. My goal is to make your pet feel completely at home while allowing you to relax during your travels! I am happy to provide as many updates you would like. My longtime girlfriend and I both work from home everyday! We have plenty of time to care for your pet. We can accommodate your pets schedule however needed. Our home is free roaming and pet friendly. Doggies are welcome in bed or on the couch if they desire. We also have a very large backyard and enjoy walks if that is your pets preference.

“Jordan followed every instruction to the T. She was very polite, professional, responsive and communicative in the months of planning leading up to our big trip. The only mishaps while we were away were handled adeptly without stress or drama and Jordan even made one more visit to care for everyone when our return flight came in later than planned. We arrived home (from being thousands of miles away for a week of almost no cell service) to find our +20 member fur family happy, well fed and not at all worse for the wear. The house was just as we had left it. We truly look forward our next opportunity to book Jordan. Mahalo nui Jordan- you made a once-in-a-lifetime family reunion happen. We are so grateful we had your care here at home so we could be away to make these priceless memories!”

About: I’ve had several animals in my lifetime that I’ve been tasked with taking care of, my own and others. I currently have an FIV+ cat, so I’m not stranger to special needs animals and am more than happy to accommodate their needs. I’m currently working part time in Chicago on Monday-Wednesday, I’m looking to take care of animals Thursday-Sunday or anytime after 6pm on the days where I’m working. I’m an absolute animal lover and love nothing more than to spend time with any and all animals. My cat is incredibly picky and consistently needs to be hand fed food, so that’s not a problem with me. I also am great at giving pets medication that they really don’t want to take, as I consistently have to administer meds to my special needs cat. I’ll make sure your animal is thriving, having fun, and feels comfort when they’re with me.

“Madalyn was fantastic with our pup, Midna (who absolutely loved her). She’s highly communicative, showed up on time, very sweet, and knowledgeable. Our pup is very high energy and Madalyn knew exactly how to calmly handle her. We couldn’t be happier to have found her. We highly recommend her.”

About: I've been a dog lover my whole life. I've always had Labrador Retrievers and I am loving and caring I will take good care of your dog as if they were mine. Can keep you updated with pictures and anything else you would need at any time. So I'm used to bigger dogs I'm also okay with smaller dogs. My house is very dog friendly. I am also used to giving medications and special diets. I know how special dogs are. Thank you. Let me know what is needed for you and your pup or pups. Would love to help out and make sure your dog is well taken care of. I have a fenced in yard, and at your home I am extra cautious and will make sure your dog is happy and well cared for.

“Very happy with Patrycja. She dog sat last weekend and I felt she gave my Ivy a great amount of attention and exercise. She even washed the sheets before she left, which was an unexpected bonus! Would definitely use her again.”

About: As a pet-mom to two high-effort dogs and a very attached cat, I know how important it is to have a reliable plan in place when you inevitably need to leave your babies. I’ve professionally cared for animals since I was 16, starting at PAWS Tinley Park as Jr. Volunteer. When I moved downtown for college, I transitioned to the PAWS in Lincoln Park and Chicago Anit-Cruelty Society. From these opportunities, I learned the immense patient, hard work and empathy it requires to care for pets of all kinds and at all life stages. From abandoned new born kittens to senior dogs awaiting a home to live out their golden years, I was touched by every single animal who trusted me with their care. There is no better feeling than watching an animal grow to trust you and feel safe when you’re around. My goal when caring for your pet is to give them the same love, patience, and attention I would want someone to give my own. I know how hard it can be to leave your pets behind, especially when they’re such an important part of your family. Whether it’s a walk around the neighborhood, cleaning a litter box, or an extended sleepover, I’ll take the time to learn their routines, understand their personalities, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Your pets deserve to feel at home even when you’re not there, and I’d be honored to give them that care. I currently have a full-time job, but work from home and make my own hours. I have an incredibly flexible schedule, and can be available for short check ins throughout the day, or move my “office” to your home to keep your pets company through the workday. I have a fully-fenced backyard with tons of grass. I have multiple areas in my house where your pet can interact with my two dogs only, with my cat only, or be completely separated with their own space. I can accommodate whichever situation works best for you and your pet!

About: “I’ve worked with dogs at an animal shelter for about a year”. I love dogs with my heart. I can feed, walk and just spend time with your dogs. I’m currently working part time but I’m free to be there for you when needed after 2:30 from Monday-Friday and on weekends I’m free all day long. I have a fenced yard hat so dogs are able to run around the yard and still be safe while having fun. I love taking my dogs to the park.

About: I offer a home-based boarding experience designed for pets who deserve thoughtful, elevated care. My home is calm, beautifully maintained, and intentionally structured—ideal for dogs who thrive on routine, comfort, and personalized attention. I share my home with a 15-year-old miniature poodle, so I selectively welcome only gentle, compatible dogs to maintain a peaceful, low-stress environment. With limited capacity, each guest receives attentive supervision, individualized care, and a nurturing, high-quality stay. I’m enjoying early retirement and have chosen to devote my time to providing full-time, attentive care for dogs. This allows me to be consistently present, unhurried, and deeply focused on each guest’s comfort, routine, and overall well-being throughout their stay. I have a beautiful and clean spacious split level home for your fur baby to freely move around in. My home features a securely fenced yard designed for safe, supervised playtime. Dogs enjoy calm outdoor breaks and gentle activity in a controlled environment, always under attentive supervision to ensure comfort, safety, and peace of mind.

About: Hi! 🐾 I'm a graduate student with a genuine love for dogs, and being a dog sitter is something I truly enjoy! Whether you need dog walking, dog sitting, or boarding, my goal is to make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and cared for while you're away. I believe every dog deserves personalized care, attention, and plenty of love. I treat every dog like my own and love getting to know their unique personalities, routines, and favorite things. I'm always thinking about the dogs in my care and finding little ways to make their time with me extra special! 🐶 **What makes my care special?** - **Daily updates:** You'll receive updates, photos, and videos so you can feel connected to your pup while you're away. - **Personalized report cards:** I love sharing how your dog's day went, including their activities, fun moments, and how they're doing. - **TikTok-style videos:** I enjoy making fun, memorable videos of the dogs I care for so you have something special to look back on! - **Holiday surprises:** For my returning clients, I love giving holiday gift bags and special treats for their pups as a little thank-you for trusting me. - **Birthday celebrations:** If I know your dog's birthday, you can bet I'll be thinking of ways to make their day extra special! 🎂🐾 I understand that your dog is family, and trusting someone to care for them is a big deal. I want you to feel comfortable knowing your pup is receiving loving, respectful, and attentive care. My goal is for your dog to look forward to spending time with me just as much as I look forward to spending time with them! I'd love to meet you and your furry best friend! ❤️🐶 I currently am free most of the week. I love to take care of animals, so please feel free to contact me regarding any questions. When taking care of your pet I will make sure to ask questions regarding any secret hide outs your pet might like to hide in or what their favorite toy is to keep them company.
