House Sitting in Pullman, Chicago

“Jayden was amazing with our two dogs Lola and Phyllis while on a week long trip. Their communication was great, sent great pictures, and updates, and took care of our house during a week of snow. They shoveled and salted even. Jayden was accommodating to a flight delay as well. Our dogs seemed happy and well taken care of when we got home. Highly recommend Jayden. We will use them again!!”

“Alexa did a wonderful job taking care of our dog in our home over a long holiday weekend. She was communicative, made sure Beau got his walks and play time, left our home clean and our dog happy. She followed our instructions on everything and asked questions when she wasn’t sure about something. We hope our dog wasn’t too crazy for her, but we would gladly welcome her back! So grateful we found Alexa.”

“Shakira is the absolute best and just a amazing lady! This was my first time hes I g him with a stranger. Both she and Benzo fell in love with each other and he was looking sad when she left. She took good care of my boy and kept me updated on his activities during the day. Couldn’t ask for a better experience or sitter for my puppy. Do not hesitate ti book her if she’s available; you won’t regret it I promise. She is a dog whisperer!!?”

About: Since I was little I always loved all kinds of animals especially dogs being my favorite. They are truly a wonderful creation on earth. I been having a pet basically my whole life and once I moved out I had to get a me a little companion or two. When I was searching for houses to buy, one of my main requirements was a house with a big back yard for my dogs to play in. I have two dogs Dakota who's 3 husky mixed with pitbull and a 8 month german shepherd who loves to play and make friends. But once again I am a very huge animal person and if you choose to let your companion stay with me I will treat and love him like my own I currently do security and most of my shifts are overnight, so your pet would be taken care of greatly throughout the day and would have plenty of outside time depending on the weather I have big fenced back yard with cameras for your dog safety and to have plenty of outside time, I also have two dogs who would love to keep them company and I am currently making a room just for the dogs to relax from everyone if needed.

“Our pet sitter had to cancel last minute, but it was a blessing in disguise because he did a fantastic job with my three dogs. I loved the pictures throughout the visit too.”

About: As a lifelong animal lover, my experience with dogs dates back to when my family adopted our first—a golden doodle—when I was six years old. In the time since, I've helped care for a multitude of critters, big and small. I have experience handling elderly dogs and the strength to lift and assist them with getting down the stairs, using the bathroom, putting on clothes and booties, and changing diapers. Additionally, I'm well versed in administering medication to animals, whether it be a pill, injection, or liquid. As a writer, copy editor, and artist, my schedule reflects my career choices in its flexibility. With few set deadlines and the ability to work from just about anywhere, I'm free whenever you need me to be, including on short notice. I require a clean environment to thrive, and my treatment of my clients' homes aligns with that requirement. You can expect to return home to a healthy, happy animal and an abode that appears exactly how you left it. Any accidents, spills, or other messes will be cleaned promptly, and any damage that occurs will be reported to the client as soon as possible.

“It was our first time getting a sitter to stay in our home and care for our 3 dogs for 2 days and Kathryn did not dissapoint. She was very attentive, sweet, patient, and understood all the directions on what to do for our 3 fur babies since they all have different eating habits and personalities. She made sure she texted me throughout her stay if she had any questions and sent us plenty of pics to keep us updated. She was very respectful of our home too. Her price is completely reasonable and I felt like the kids were in good hands with her. I would ask for her help again in the future and I definitely recommend.”

“Anais was very communicative - she sent lots of pictures. She kept the place clean and was respectful. I would book her again. She was accommodating with special needs of my dog.”

Allison W.

“Anyah is the greatest dog sitter ever!! She is great with my dog and always on time. I highly recommend her.”

“Samantha was great! She really saved us when we were put in a bind by a last minute cancellation by another sitter. She sent us daily updates and pictures of our pups, and endured their puppy energy. We came home to a clean house and happy puppies. We would definitely book Samantha again!”

“We moved to Chicago just a few weeks before a two week trip to Australia, so needless to say we were a bit worried about leaving our cat. I got in touch with Nicole before we even moved and she was great right from the start. Throughout our trip, she sent pictures at least twice a day and was very communicative. She asked if her boyfriend could stay with her and since we were gone for two weeks, we agreed to that. They stayed at our apartment for two weeks and treated both our cat and our apartment with care. You could barely tell anyone had stayed there when we got back. I also left them a novel of instructions and they followed it all (although I could've been more clear on how many treats he should get, he got spoiled!). As soon as she got to our house at the start of our booking, our anxieties about leaving our cat were gone. Can't recommend booking Nicole enough.”

About: Hello! I work remotely, therefore I am always home. Your dog will not be left unattended. I also have a flexible cancellation policy. I know life can be crazy! I am the ultimate dog lover and will treat your dog like family. I keep my dog healthy with lots of snuggles and daily walks. Your dog will receive that same care that my Fur baby receives. I can also accommodate more than one pet; the more the merrier. You can call any time to check on your baby. I am always available to talk. I have a big fenced yard and a cozy home. Your dog will always be welcomed on my lap and couch. ❤️ Since I work from home full time I have lots of time to hang out with the dogs in my yard. They are like my little coworkers! I usually take the dogs on 2 walks a day but if you have a preference on more or less, I can do that. How do I ensure your dog is safe during their visit? I have a small friendly chihuahua. He loves making new friends and sharing his toys. My yard is treated monthly for fleas and ticks (All pet friendly treatments). The yard is secure with a tall fence and no gaps. My dog is up to date with his vaccines. Please let me know if your furbaby has a set schedule if not they will follow our routine. They get plenty of supervised play time and potty breaks throughout the day. I regularly vacuum and mop my house. All furniture also gets vacuumed daily. I use pet friendly flea prevention methods inside and outside my house. We get our house and yard professionally treated to avoid ticks and fleas. But I ask that you also keep your pet on flea preventatives. All dogs that come in must be vaccinated. Please do not bring your pup if they are showing any symptoms. (Runny stools, coughing, runny nose)

“Elizabeth took amazing care of our dog and our home while we were away for a wedding this weekend. She is a great communicator, updated us every day on how our dog was doing, and our dog was in great spirits when we returned! We will definitely ask her to watch our dog again in the future and would highly recommend to a friend.”

About: With respect and kindness, I’ve yet to me an animal that I didn’t love and didn’t love me back. No relationships comes easy, especially with our non-human community members. I love to get to know all pets and seeing their individual personalities. I am currently a part time urban agricultural apprentice. While I love plants to the moon and back, the let’s I grew up with and continue to care for are what brings meaning to my life and I’d love to care for more. Contrary to popular belief, animals are very good at telling you their needs. The small details in their body language are there way of trying to speak to us. Outside of generally keeping them in a physically safe environment, I think it is essential that they are in an emotionally safe environment as well. I seek to make sure, outside basic needs, they their lives are abundant in security emotionally.
