House Sitting Prospect Heights

“We had Erica house sit for our two senior dogs for 9 days. We are extremely pleased with the outstanding care she provided. Both dogs have some special needs and required some medication/supplements which she was able to administer. Also, while we were gone there were several rounds of severe storms, which cause both dogs to get very anxious and scared. She went above and beyond to make them comfortable, providing me with updates and asking questions to make sure she was doing everything she could to help them. I received pictures and updates on the dogs and the house while we gone, which I really appreciated. I have a lot of plants and she made sure they were protected from the storms. When our flight home was delayed, she offered to go back and check on the dogs. She left the house neat and clean and offered to wash the linens and towels! We also have fish which she also feed twice a day. I highly recommend Erica!”

“My pup was right at home with Brittany and she was great at sending pictures and daily updates. I would highly recommend her for dog/house sitting.”

“Karina is truly the best! She provided immaculate care for our senior dog. I have no doubt that Lilly felt safe and loved with Karina while we traveled. Karina provides multiple updates and pictures throughout her stay. She is also extremely responsive to any messages or questions. We will absolutely be booking with Karina again to watch our senior gal!”

“Scott did a great job with our XL pups, especially the one that is slow to accept new people. Communicated each day (w/ pics), and left the house & yard clean. We would use him again (and plan to) in a heartbeat”

“We were contemplating on how our 2 dogs were going to be taken care of while we were on vacation for 4 days. We have a 9 year old Dachshund and a 4 month old German Shepherd and were skeptical of boarding them in a kennel due to the fact that we didn’t want to put that stress on a puppy. We usually have a family member stay at the house to care for the dogs while we are gone for a long period of time, but we didn’t have this option during this time. We came across Rover and said to ourselves, “Let’s meet a sitter and see what happens”. We came across Carolyn and chose her because of her background working with animals. When we met her, we knew instantly we liked her and our 2 dogs enjoyed her. So we moved forward with booking her and when we returned back from our trip, our 2 dogs were happy and well taken care of! We’ll definitely be using Carolyn in the future!”

“Sarah took care of our cat for four days at our house while we were away. He has to be given medication at certain times during the day and also loves human attention. Sarah was caring and responsible, spent time hanging out with him, and made sure he got his meals and medicine at the right times. She also checked in with us, asked good questions, and responded quickly when we checked in with her. We hope to hire Sarah again, and highly recommend her for petsitting and housesitting.”

“John was wonderful with Odie! Sent many updates and pictures to let us know our boy was doing good.”

“Ryan was an amazing asset while we were away. He is communicative, kind, and truly goes the extra mile—leaving a wonderful impression on both us and our pets (even our cranky rooster!). He asked thoughtful questions and took great care in looking out for our entire household. He’s hands down the best pet sitter we’ve had, and we will absolutely be using him again! Our home was better than how we left it.”

“Can’t say enough good things about Carly. She won over my skittish pup right away. I got great updates and pictures and both pups absolutely loved her. Can’t wait to have her back!”

About: I’ve been taking care of pets for as long as I can remember. I grew up in a household with multiple animals, so I’ve always had a deep love and respect for them. I now have my own little fur baby and truly understand the responsibility and care our pets deserve as part of the family. With me, your pet will be in loving and attentive care, always treated with patience, affection, and respect. 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I enjoy staying active and spending time outdoors, so walks, playtime, and keeping pets company are activities I genuinely look forward to. I care for every pet as if they were part of my own family. I make sure they are in a safe, clean, and comfortable environment while following their normal routines as closely as possible. I pay close attention to their behavior, energy level, eating habits, and overall comfort so I can recognize when something seems different.

About: I’m a well equipped pet sitter and walker, I take excellent care of every dog and cat I’ve watched. My neighbors rely on me and I’ve never let them down! I want to take care of your pet next! I’m available Monday- Sunday at anytime that works for you! I’m currently in online school, and have an extremely flexible schedule for your pet sitting needs! I have a fenced in backyard that my 2 dogs run around in all day. I also walk my dogs 3 times a day for 30 minutes each, they’re small dogs. I am able to give medication, walk bigger dogs for however long you decide, and of course play with your furry friends!

“Luciana is an amazing person . Compassionate and caring. She took care of Bubbles like no one else”

“Monica took wonderful care of our fur babies and our home while we were away for a week! We have a puppy and senior dog and Monica was great with both! She even worked on some training with our pup! She provided great communication and sent lots of pictures to reassure us our girls were doing well while we were away. If you are looking for someone you can trust to take good care of your fur babies (and your home) while you’re traveling, I highly recommend Monica. We will definitely be requesting her again in the future!”

“We couldn’t have been happier. Traci was very upbeat and friendly. Great with communication. She went above and beyond with caring for our baby as well as our home. She did many thoughtful things that were not expected of her, and they did not go unnoticed. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. We highly recommend her to anyone in need of help with their fur babies.”

About: Cat sitting and drop-in visits in Elk Grove Village and nearby suburbs. I'm a cat mom and cat-care specialist—the sitter cat owners call for shy kittens, senior cats, and cats who need medication. A recent client called me "hands down the best cat care professional we've had." I follow a detailed daily checklist, send photos/videos plus a written summary after every visit, and leave your home tidy: bowls washed, litter area swept, food and litter trash taken out. I know the feeling of standing at the door with your suitcase, looking back at your pet, wondering if they'll be okay. Here's why you can stop worrying: my cat Wall-E came to me feral. He trusted no one. Today he walks on a leash, comes when I call him, and asks for cuddles. That's the skill I bring to cats: reading body language, respecting fear instead of pushing through it, and letting your cat set the pace. Shy, anxious, reactive, or "difficult with strangers" cats aren't difficult to me. Trust earned slowly is the kind that lasts. Your cat won't be squeezed between errands. I work from home, so cat care is already the shape of my mornings and evenings. Drop-in visits, daily feeding schedules, medication visits, and vacation care fit naturally into my day—and I don't book back-to-back visits that leave your cat rushed. The details matter to me because they matter to your cat. Exact feeding routines, portion sizes, prescription diets, medication timing, the bowl that has to be in that one spot, the hiding spot your shy cat prefers: I follow your instructions to the letter, not approximately. Litter boxes are scooped every visit, water is refreshed, and I pay attention while I do it, because changes in appetite, water intake, or bathroom habits are often the first sign something's off. You know your cat best. My job is to keep their world exactly the way you built it. And if the worst-case scenario in your head ever became real: I'm CERT emergency-response trained through our village police department. I handle medications, supplements, and senior-cat health monitoring calmly and precisely. You'd have someone who acts first and panics never. I'm cat-first, but I also offer limited dog drop-ins and walks on request. If you're traveling and need cat-first drop-in care, message me with your dates and your cat's needs—I'm happy to answer questions before you book. I run my own business from home, giving me flexible availability throughout the day. I can accommodate drop-in visits, daily feeding schedules, and extended sitting arrangements. My routine already includes dedicated pet care time morning and evening, so your cat will fit naturally into my day. My home is a cat-friendly environment where my two well-socialized cats live. I’m experienced with managing multi-cat introductions if boarding is needed. For in-home visits, I follow detailed care instructions and send photo updates so you always know your pet is happy and safe. I’m also experienced with administering supplements and monitoring health needs.

About: My genuine love for dogs, patience, and dependability. I treat dogs like family, make sure they feel safe, happy and loved! I love playing with dogs. I enjoy spending time with animals, providing walks, feeding, playtime, and affection. I’m dependable and flexible, I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I provide loving, reliable care by following each pet’s routines for feeding, walking, playtime, and cuddles. In a clients home I respect their space and follow all instructions to keep pets safe, comfortable, happy, and cared for like family.
