“Kimberly took good care of Lumi. Thank you for doing that! She is very energetic when coming back. The only suggestion is if she could send us pictures of our cat once a day which would be perfect.”
“When Noodles is with Doug and Deb, we rest easy on our trips knowing he is well cared for and entertained. We’ve experienced short stays and a longer stay recently for one week. I love to see how responsive he is with them, telling me he enjoys spending time in their home. The pictures we receive from Doug & Deb show Noodles around their home, happy and content. Doug & Deb are truly amazing and a stay with them feels like being at home!”
“Gabriela and Richard were so kind and sweet with my toy poodle! They even took her on little adventures to get doggie ice cream and nice walks around the neighborhood, aside from plenty of outside time in their own fenced-in backyard! Gabriela was super great about texting updates and super cute pics of my girl! And they even got her to eat a good bit while I was away even though she usually tries to go on a hunger strike in my absence. Gabriela met us for like 15 mins at the local park before boarding and got to know my dog and garner some info from me, which I really appreciated and not a lot of boarders do that! My girl was very happy when I picked her up and I would absolutely rebook Gabriela and Richard! Highly recommend!”
“This was our second time leaving the pups with Arlene and she was wonderful as always! She was very accommodating when we had to travel last minute for a family emergency and we are grateful for her support. The dogs were happy campers and I appreciated the photo updates she sent when she got a chance!”
“This is the second time we have had Rico take care of our dog for the weekend and we felt so great knowing that Odin was in such good hands. Rico sent lots of pictures each day and truly made Odin feel welcome and comfortable in his home. We highly recommend Rico and his wife!”
“Julia was incredible with my dog Kiwi! He had so much fun playing with her and the other dogs and I am so happy with our decision to leave him with her! Leaving him for 2 full weeks felt so scary but she constantly sent pictures and updates and took great care of him!”
“Jonelle was great with stella, and replied msgs on time and updated me about how Stella was doing. I would definitely recommend and rebook with jonelle for future. Thank you jonelle .”
“Jamie was a great sitter for our dog Bonks! She sent regular picture and video updates which we loved. Our dog got along great with their pets, and we will definitely use Jamie again when we need a sitter in the future!”
“Nicky was great with our Frenchie. Lots of communication and photos. Would recommend if you need someone that can care for a fussy dog that needs lots of attention!”
“We are so grateful we found Eric to watch our dog Sammy! He was so great at sending pictures and updates, it made us feel so much better about being away and Sammy had so much fun playing with Harvey!! We will definitely be reaching out to Eric in the future”
“Reuben took great care of our pup! He checked in and updated us often and made sure that we knew our dog was in good hands. Reuben was also very accommodating when a flight delayed and we picked up our dog a little later than anticipated. He is a kind and knowledgeable individual and we will book with him again!”
“Rob was so great with our dog Rory! He was very attentive and sent along tons of great pictures and updates. She definitely had a great time at his house, playing in the yard, and snuggling on the couch. Thanks Rob!!”
“Once again Joerg and Lake, and Lizzie, took excellent care of Riley. It was more difficult this time because her mobility is getting worse with age. I know she's always in good hands when I leave her the with them.”
“Jackie and her family were amazing with our dog. They took amazing care of him, and even took him out to play a few times. Jackie kept me updated with pictures and videos though-out the weekend. Our dog enjoyed his visit and I will be booking Jackie next time we’re in need of a sitter!!”
“Eileen is great! Our Molly spent a weekend with her and I think she really enjoyed Eileen and being with the other pups.

Michelle was phenomenal with our puppy! She provided updates and gave her excellent, hands-on, truly sweet care. She bought her little toys to match her breed and sent them home with us (so kind) and was so polite, professional, flexible, and quick to communicate. We can’t wait to work with her again!
Cindy was great! She was open to meeting before the booking to make sure Dexter and her got along. During Dexter's stay Cindy sent photos and kept me updated on how he was doing. Cindy eased some nerves, only hung out with Dex, and we would definitely book again!
I found Amanda for a fill in when my regular sitter was unavailable. Amanda's love for your pet shows in her thoughtful updates. She took great care of my Sr dog with medical needs and even brought to my attention shifts in behavior over just 3 short days with her. Would absolutely book again. Thank you for your care!
Kaitlin was fantastic! Great communication and updates during my dog’s boarding stay. She was able to help out last minute when I had a caregiver cancel. She took my dog for walks and he was a happy pup when I picked him up. I would definitely board with Kaitlin again!
I can't say enough good things about the care Teddy & Bear received. Teddy & Bear can be a handful, but Mariana handled them with so much patience and love — they came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well looked after. Trustworthy, communicative, and genuinely great with the boys. I wouldn't hesitate for a second to book again — highly, highly recommend.
Courtney was terrific with my dog. My dog has anxiety and doesn't eat good when I'm away. Courtney went above and beyond to help her eat. She's very laid back which is what my dog needs. Really knows her dog stuff as her career has always been working with dogs plus her vet tech degree. I would recommend her to anyone.
Yuliya was wonderful with my pups! She’s a phenomenal communicator and kept me updated with plenty of pictures while I was traveling. From the jump, it was easy to see that my boys were super comfortable with her and made themselves at home in lovely space. Thanks again, Yuliya!
Sarah did such an excellent job dog sitting both of our dogs. She sent regular updates and adjusted to their personalities (one social and one shy). Our dogs had enough time to play/socialize, nap during the day, frequent potty breaks, and a comfortable place to sleep. It was such a great peace of mind knowing our dogs were well taken care of in a loving home while we were on vacation. Sarah is also very responsive and timely in communication which was well appreciated. Thank you for a great stay! We highly recommend Sarah!!
I’ve used Rob several times over the past couple of years to watch my two pups, and I couldn’t be happier with his care. He’s always great at communicating and keeps me updated, and my dogs always come home happy and well cared for. It’s such a relief knowing they’re in great hands while I’m away. Thanks so much, Rob!
Thank you so much for the wonderful care you gave Junior. He is a senior dog and can suffer from separation anxiety and at time refuse to eat, but your frequent updates and attentive care put my mind totally at ease. Seeing how sweet your children were with Junior made the stay extra special. He absolutely loved the kiddos, playing in the backyard, and going on his daily walks. Junior came home incredibly happy. You will absolutely be our go-to sitter moving forward! Review Highlights * Anxiety-Free Stay: Handled senior dog worry with gentle, loving attention. And frequent photo and updates * Kid-Friendly Cuddles: Junior loved snuggling and bonding with the children. * Active & Happy: Great backyard playtime and daily walks kept him thriving. * Future Booking: Officially our new permanent, go-to pet sitter.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Norridge home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Norridge.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
