House Sitting in Pesotum

“We had a great experience with Emma caring for Midnight over the past week. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly very caring with him. During the first few days, she checked in and asked thoughtful questions to make sure everything was going well, which we really appreciated. It gave us real peace of mind to know he was in good hands while we were away. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for cat and a house that was well looked after too. We’re very grateful and would gladly have her stay with Midnight again.”

“Carli took amazing care of our dogs and cat. She was very flexible with us given the somewhat short notice of our request, very good at staying in touch, and sent plenty of pictures of the kids! They loved having her over to keep them company. We would happily recommend her services and will definitely be coming to her first in the future!”

About: I bring years of hands-on animal care experience from veterinary clinics, kennels, and long-term pet sitting, including special-needs care for a senior dog who requires diapers, hourly potty breaks, medication management, and a strict diet. My background in veterinary support and my 5-year commitment to caring for three dogs from one family means I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and fully comfortable supporting pets with complex routines. I treat every animal with patience, confidence, and genuine love, giving owners peace of mind while they’re away. Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine because, with school wrapping up, I have plenty of time to focus on consistent, reliable visits. I plan my days around each pet’s needs, keeping feeding, walks, and medications on schedule while balancing a few prior commitments on set days. For the most part, I’m available daily, which allows me to offer flexible booking, dependable check-ins, and attentive pet-focused care that never feels rushed. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routine exactly, keeping feeding, meds, and potty schedules consistent while maintaining a calm, clean environment. I provide gentle companionship, monitor behavior and health closely, and send regular updates so owners feel connected and reassured. My goal is to respect the home, reduce stress, and ensure every pet feels safe and understood.

“Kylie was amazing, checked in every day, suffered through a storm with my big, wimp of a beast dog and my house was spotless when I got home. Highly recommended, but I’d like to save her for myself.”

“Ashley was absolutely fabulous taking care of my Old English Sheepdog Whimzy while I was away in France for almost 2 weeks. I hope to have her take care of Whimzy again soon. Highly recommend!”

About: Ive been around dogs a lot. I have 3 of my own. One named Hope. She’s more active, and needs alot of playtime. So I’m definitely good at managing that. One name is Oakley, he likes to be babied and cuddled. Ones name is Hank, and he is just the chillest dog haha. I already have dogs so I work 24/7 with my own. I have a lot of time on my hands so I’m free whenever. Anytime you just need a break I can come help, when you’re gone. I’ll do it. I give baths, I walk them, I play ball/fetch with them. I take them potty, feed them, give them treats. I do all the things it takes to take care of a dog, the same way you would treat a baby.

About: While most of my pet care experience has been with cats, I have also spent time caring for dogs belonging to friends and family. I enjoy spending time with dogs, going on walks, playing, and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. I may not be a lifelong dog owner, but I am responsible, attentive, and committed to following each dog's routine and needs closely. Because I work part-time, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. Whether your pet needs a midday visit, a walk, or some extra company while you're away, I can often accommodate different schedules and provide attentive, reliable care. Your pet's safety and comfort are always my top priorities. At this time, I am unable to host pets in my own home, but I am happy to care for them in their familiar environment. I will carefully follow any instructions and safety guidelines you provide, including feeding routines, medications, walking preferences, and household rules, to ensure your pet feels secure, happy, and well cared for while you're away.

“Jen is the perfect pal for your pups! She stayed at our home overnight and gave both our dogs lots of snuggles and walks. She even made homemade treats for them. Jen tidied up our home and washed the bedding where she stayed. Her communication is superb- if you like a lot of updates and pics, look no further!”

“Abigail was great, we appreciated the updates and pictures while we were away. She communicated well and took good care of our sweet girl (13 year old dog). We will book again :)”

About: I have been raised around all sorts of pets ranging from hamsters to dogs of all ages. My parents always expected me to help take care of our dogs and it has always been my responsibility to take care of my own animals. I have also learned a lot about pet care and animal behavior through my own research! I am currently an undergraduate student at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign and living at home. I commute to and from school everyday and my weekends are usually free! I am happy to share my class schedule in order to make sure we are the right fit! I always make sure to meet your animals in a way that they feel comfortable prior to services in order to ensure everyone’s safety. I usually bring treats or a toy so they know I am someone they can trust! I also am able to accommodate to any needs for your pet whether it’s medicine, a specific diet, or if you are working on any specific training with them.
