“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.”
“Doug & Deb are wonderful pet parents! With short notice, they took in my senior dog and made her feel home. Well cared for and exercised. We will definitely come back!”
“Janette and Charlie were so thoughtful and caring in their communication regarding my dog. I appreciated their daily updates, pictures and even a video! We'll definitely use Janette and Charlie again!”
“Lauriann and Sven were wonderful sitters! They sent pictures and updates every day. They made sure my Shar-Pei mix felt comfortable through the rain and fireworks, which she can get anxiety about. I felt so safe leaving her in their care and I would definitely book them again.”
“Angel was great. We spent about 11 days in Europe and she took great care of Mayla. Mayla has separation anxiety so we were happy to find a sitter who has dogs at home and regularly sits other doggies. We 100% recommend Angel.”
“Rico and his wife were such a great hosts for Wylie. We felt so good about leaving him in good hands. They played with him in their yard, walked him, and just overall took great care of him. He is excited for his next stay and we are definitely booking with Rico again.”
“I’m so grateful I found Julia! She is so reliable, kept me updated, sent lots of photos and really gave me peace of mind when watching my fur baby! I’m absolutely booking her again for anytime. I need a puppysitter!”
“Nicky was amazing. He was so kind and totally went the extra mile to make sure our dog was comfortable. She loved spending time with him and going for walks and cuddling. I would definitely rebook with him.”
“Robert did great! Even though Logan was there for a shorter stay, I got plenty of pics and Logan looked happy/comfortable in all of them! I picked him up this morning and he's exhausted so I'm sure he had a good time”
“Camille provided exceptional care to our sweet Annie. We felt confident and comfortable after our meet and greet where Camille answered all of my questions. W were very pleased to receive pictures and comments that affirmed our decision to have Camille watch her for a long weekend. Camille shared that she enjoyed watching Annie and it is clear that Annie loved being at her place, too!”
“Once again , Jax was able to spend time with Eileen and her adorable dogs. He is super blessed and happy and we are so so ever thankful for her support and help during his stay.”
About: I love all types of dogs! I grew up always having a dog in the family, and also have been caring for friends' and neighbors' dogs since childhood. I have experience handling larger dogs, and caring for senior dogs. I have a flexible schedule and am able to work around caring for your dog as needed. My husband also works from home full time, so one of us will always be around to provide love and care. I have a fenced in backyard and two senior dogs who love to have visitors. They get along easily with most dogs, but we'd want to do a meet and greet to ensure everyone gets along well!
“Erin was absolutely amazing! My pup had some medical needs that Erin took care of perfectly. Opal was so cared for and loved. I will definitely reach out to Erin in the future! :)”
“Shout out to Jasmine! Such a great experience with her! My dog Bulleit is a high-maintenance Border Collie who needs a lot of attention from his humans, so finding the right sitter has always been challenging and honestly gives me a lot of anxiety. And Bulleit said Jasmine is his favorite sitter, since he usually roasts me and barks at me for at least 1mins upon his pickup from daycare/boarding, but this time there’s no complaint🤣 Jasmine made everything so easy for me😭She’s incredibly caring and loving, and she kept me updated on how my dog was doing with lots of cute pictures. You can also tell that she has plenty of experience with different kinds of dogs and really knows how to make them feel comfortable. And doggos don’t lie, you can simply tell from their behavior whether they like their sitter and whether they’ve been treated well. I could tell that my dog felt genuinely happy, comfortable, and secure staying with Jasmine. For the first time, I was actually able to relax while I was away instead of constantly worrying about him. Highly recommend!! ❤️🐶”
“Hi , Kichu had a great time with Mario. He texted me and also replied my text in a timely manner so I could solve the problem easily . I was able to enjoy my trip peacefully. He sent me Kichu’s pictures and videos.I highly consider Mario next time. Thank you for your service.”

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.
