Cat Sitting in Norridge

“Ray is an excellent guy. He's always available and I trust him 100% with my dog. I went on a trip to Panama City for 4 days and he took care of my pup. He asked all the right questions. Took notes and took my dog to some great places and sent me pics all the time. Don't hesitate to book Ray if you have the opportunity!!!”

“Karli was great! She was really thorough with daily updates and to my surprise, my apprehensive natured cats, felt very comfortable to interact with her. Thanks again, Karli!”

“Kelly is amazing and so good with my pup! She is so kind and flexible and would highly recommend her if you are looking for someone to take care of your fur babies!”

“Coleen was awesome with our two senior cats! We were a little worried leaving them with someone new, but the cats had nothing but pawsome feedback. Both kitties are on medications and very demanding, and Coleen exceeded all expectations. Coleen was quick to respond to any questions and provided thorough details of each visit along with a plethora of photos showing the kitties in their natural habitat which was really helpful. We came home, the house was in one piece, looked a little better than before we left, cats were happy, not overly stressed, had plenty of food and water. What a relief to have someone we can count on to watch our fur babies. I would not hesitate to schedule with Coleen again, as she was stellar! Thank you for looking after our two cats!! We will absolutely book again!”

“We recently went out of town for the first time since adopting our kittens and were so worried about leaving them. Chris was so attentive and made sure to send us detailed updates and photos. She followed our instructions without any issues and our house was in perfect order when we got back. Her care and attention was next level and we will definitely be asking her to cat sit again.”

“Maria is truly the best!! She has been spectacular with my two pups, both with very different needs and personalities! We have an older dog with medical needs and a firm personality and a younger pup that is high energy and low listening skills :) I cannot give a higher recommendation for Maria! She is kind, responsive, and most accommodating.”

Nicole B.

“Nicholas did a great job looking after my cat. She was always very shy and he would make sure to find where she was which would sometimes take a bit longer as she found new hiding spots. He completed all tasks that I asked of him. He was always on time and very professional.”

About: My husband and I have always been dog people. Growing up he had two labradors and I had a beagle. When we bought our house we adopted a senior lab. We spoiled him as much as we could and loved him unconditionally. After losing Ceasar two years ago, we walked into an animal shelter and that's where our baby, Uru-Kai, stole our hearts. I don't work on weekends, I have holidays off and the summer off. I already have a dog so I know how important it is to stick to a routine. Our current dog goes out on four walks a day. If he needs to go potty because he drank too much water we let him in the back yard. If he seems bored he rings the doorbell to be let in the backyard. When we need to leave the house our dog is put in his crate to ensure that he's safe and stays out of trouble while we're gone.

“Karina is very communicative and took good care of our cat, who can be skeptical of strangers. But she accepted Karina really quickly. From the video and picture shared with us, you can tell Karina knows how to approach animals and makes our cat comfortable with her. We appreciate Karina keeping our cat company while we are away.”

“Keri watched my cat for two weeks and did an excellent job. She followed all instructions on cat care, and was mindful of my cat's quirky and somewhat shy and anxious personality - doing low level things like sitting in the same room to give her company while not forcing interaction to build comfort. I had the sense she really cared about my cat, not just the tasks of cat care. I would hire her again.”

Constance M.

“Ann was great with our cats. We appreciated her quick communication, professionalism, and prompt updates. Also, thank you for bringing in our packages!! Our shmittens aren’t the friendliest but Ann even got some pets in. We are grateful we found Ann!”

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats for friends and family since age 8, having been trusted to feed, wash, and play with dogs- I know my way around a dog park or two. ;) I also have house sat for dog owners before as well, so I am always observant and able to make sure your pup feels right at home, and your home stays looking best in show! I currently have open availability, with tons of time to play with and entertain your pups! I am able to house sit as well, if given a minimum of 3 days in advance! While I cannot board fur babies at my house, I am more than able to monitor and play with your furry friends at your home (and on walks of course!), as well as follow any certain rules or procedures one may have for their best furry friend!

About: Hi! My name is Jai (rhymes with pie) and I love animals of all kinds! I've had pets my entire life and one of my favorite things is taking them (yes, even my cats) on walks to explore the outdoors and get their exercise in. I'm a teacher looking for a fun summer side gig and I would love to not only feed and walk your pets, but play with them and show them love and affection. I am currently a teacher on summer vacation with some part-time nannying and babysitting work. My schedule is very free and clear this summer to be able to take care of you pets whenever you may need. I'm a quick learner and once I know where all the pet stuff is I will be able to provide the best quality care for them. I have experience with administering medication, as well as potty training/taking dogs out on a consistent schedule.

“We are very pleased with our first drop in with Jackie. Our dog is very anxious around all people and Jackie understood Nabi’s special needs, was on time and very communicative! We will be requesting more drop-ins with Jackie!”

About: I’ve worked with all kinds of dogs through daily walks, drop-ins, and longer stays — from high-energy breeds to shy or anxious pups who need a softer approach. I’m very attentive to details, routines, and behavior changes, and I always make sure each dog feels safe and understood. My weekly routine is very flexible, which makes pet care easy to build around. I split my time between volunteer work, errands, and studying at the library, and I schedule those things around my pet visits. Because of that flexibility, I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening walks. When I’m doing dog-sitting, I structure my day around the dog’s routine — feeding, bathroom breaks, playtime, and whatever helps them feel comfortable. I’m used to adjusting my schedule so pets get the consistency and care they’re used to. Their routine becomes my routine. I follow the pet’s routine exactly as the owner lays it out. Every dog is different, so I match their needs — feeding schedule, walk times, bathroom breaks, and any special instructions. I keep the home clean, make sure doors and crates are secured, and always double-check leashes, harnesses, and gates before we go out. I pay close attention to behavior and energy levels, especially with anxious dogs or seniors, and I give them plenty of reassurance and calm company. I send updates and photos during each visit so owners feel confident and connected while they’re away. My goal is to make the pet feel safe in their own space and keep everything running smoothly until their family comes home.

“Heather is always an absolute delight to have watch our two dogs. They are so excited to see her, even though they are picky with their people! She spends extra time and gives them so much love.”

About: I am kind, I have experience with pets of any age, I can control 4-5 pets at the same time, I quickly recognize danger and aggression, I adapt to the pet’s mood and temperament, I walk in any weather, I understand the signs of illness, I monitor bowel movements, I know that means vomiting, I control the pet’s ammunition, I don’t allow it to pick up scraps from the ground, licking, I control the time, reliable control and protection. I have a lot of free time, so I’m ready to give it to your pets’ pleasures, games, and walks at their pace according to their age. I am from Ukraine, from the city of Kyiv, I have a quick reaction, I know many animal diseases, I know how a pet behaves, and if something bothers him, I can warn the pet owner about it in time. I have two dogs and a cat, I found them on the street and saved them from hunger and cold, my husband is now in Ukraine in the city of Kyiv with our pets in our apartment, men are not allowed out of the country. I am an official rescue and care volunteer, and I am also looking for good families for rescued and found animals in my country, I have a volunteer registration certificate, and I have many years of experience in my country. I know how to walk pets and I know how to protect your pet from the aggression of other animals, and how not to lose it while walking. I walked with my pets exactly as many times as they asked me to, I am attentive to my pets, I protect them from danger, and I control the entire area while walking with them. If I see that a large pet is coming towards us and I don’t know him, I take my pets away so that a conflict does not occur. I am attentive to all pets.

“Samantha did a wonderful job dropping in to check on my dog when my usual help was not available. My dog was a little wary at fist but Samantha was great and made her feel comfortable. If I need services in the future for my dog, I will definitely reach out to see if she's available.”

Abigail G.

“Absolutely awesome! Great about communication, very friendly and did everything I asked! Highly recommend. Even worked on training a trick I couldn't get down! I will definitely choose Micheal again when I need some check-ins.”

“Emily is a wonderful dog sitter and is always on time and writes detailed notes about her visits, as well she takes many beautiful photos.”
