House Sitting in Riverside

“Bravo Emma!!! She pulled it off! Rocky is old with special needs and I was so worried to go on this trip. House looked fantastic when I got back and he seemed happy and well taken care of. Would recommend Emma’s care for anyone looking for a reliable dog sitter!! Bravo!!”

“Sky was a lifesaver! Our dogs are old and quirky and Sky did such a great job caring for them. Sky’s communication was excellent and I felt so at ease knowing my dogs were being well cared for.”

“Amelia took great care of Ilo, who has some behavioural quirks of his own. She sent us daily updates and we could see that he was very happy under her care. She was house sitting for several days, and the house was left in impeccable state. We really recommend her!”

“Kiyara took care of our 4 month old puppy during the witching hour and survived! She was punctual and communicative throughout the stay and we came home to a tail-wagging, tired pup! I would definitely recommend booking with Kiyara to anyone :)”

“Baeli was great with our dog and cat for the 2 weeks we were gone. She took very good care of the animals and the house, left it clean when we arrived back home. We will be booking her again soon! Thanks Baeli!”

“Kelly is the dog sitter you want! Kind and very trustworthy, the moment you meet her you’ll feel at ease. She stayed in our home with our energetic (but very sweet) dog for 3 nights. We felt very comfortable with her in our home. She communicates well, is flexible, and really goes out of her way to make sure your dog feels safe and loved! Thank you Kelly! We truly appreciate having you as a support for our fur babies!!”

“We were impressed that Kathleen responded immediately to our request for an in home sitter and was available the next day for a meet and greet. She was awesome taking care of our two [rambunctious!] dogs, one being an 11 month old puppy, during our 1 week vacation. She stayed in our home and from beginning to end and was extremely responsive to our questions, and sent us daily updates with photos without us even asking. Kathleen promptly called us to discuss a concern about our pup having an injury when he was rough housing with his big brother. All turned out well. Upon our return, we were amazed at how immaculate Kathleen left our home. Absolutely perfect! Bottom line is that we (and our dogs!) look forward to our next vacation so that Kathleen can come again.”

“Dee was wonderful - she took great care of my home, dogs, and chickens for a week. She sent me regular updates, photos, and a video and took care of things like getting the mail and overseeing a furniture delivery. She is friendly, professional, kind, and was flexible with last minute unexpected changes. I highly recommend her!”

“Tiffany watched our 2 Ridgebacks at our home for 5 days and nights. I have a puppy 8 months old and a senior almost 12. I trust her implicitly with my dogs. They mean so much to myself and my husband and I don’t leave them with just anyone. This was the first time that we would have been away from the puppy more than a couple of hours. She kept us up to date daily and sent lots of pics. The pup adjusted and settled in quickly because of Tiffany’s amazing dog skills. She kept the house and the yard very tidy despite the rain and mud. Next time we go anywhere she will be my first call. She is trustworthy, kind, and genuinely loved the dogs. You won’t be sorry if you book with her.”

“Elijah did a fantastic job! He stayed at our apt watching our dog for a week. He was communicative and took great care of our dog and our apt. When the little rascal managed to rip her way out of her crate while he was out, he immediately got in touch and coordinated with us to go to Petco and get a new crate for her. Will definitely be using Elijah again.”

“We had an eventful day but Nadine was able to handle the situations with expertise. Her care and concerns kept Kharma’s safety a priority which we greatly appreciated”

“Sue was so fantastic with our 7 month pup! This was the first time we were leaving our girl alone overnight with someone else watching her. Sue was super patient with our nervous pup, allowing her to say hello when ready and really responding to how the dog was feeling. Sue provided so many detailed updates and pictures – it was great to see that our pup was doing well (and eased my worries being a nervous dog mom!). Sue was also very thoughtful about being sanitary and taking necessary COVID precautions, wiping down any surfaces she touched. I could not recommend Sue more and we’re looking forward to her watching our pup again!!”

“Maria is so patient with the dogs! We love how she encourages their curiosity while always being attentive and keeping them safe. Would highly recommend!”

“Sophie is a honest and delightful person who adores our dogs. She sent pictures of the pups everyday. She gave our hound dog Buster medicine for his skin issues daily. She took the dogs on walks, stayed with them when they went outside and cared for them 10 days when we went away. I would highly recommend her and we’ll use her again for our pups.”

“This is our 2nd time using Sophie for in home dog sitting. Sophie engages, plays and loves Luna while caring for her & also sends updates and pictures often. Our dog is always happy and very well taken care of.”

“I had an amazing experience with Kelsey. She was incredibly communicative, warm, and friendly. Kelsey followed my instructions diligently, especially considering my dog's separation anxiety. It's clear that she genuinely cares for animals, going above and beyond to make my dog feel comfortable. I highly recommend Kelsey for her professional and compassionate service. Thank you!”

“Yaffa was a camper, CIT and counselor at the summer camp where I was a director. She is throughly responsible, caring and thoughtful. I would definitely hire her to take care of my pet if I had one!”

“Devorah was wonderful to work with! It was nice being able to go away and not worry about my fur babies at all. We will definitely be using your services in the future!”

“Meredith was great with Arlow and Zoey. She sent me photos, kept me informed, the pups had a great time and she's super flexible. I highly recommend her and I'm already booking her for two upcoming trips.”

About: I have a profound love for cats and dogs, stemming from my 17-year companionship with my beloved Cane, who recently passed away. As a passionate pet enthusiast, I've extended my care to the Barrington community, engaging in cat and dog sitting for over a year. My commitment to providing a safe and loving environment for furry friends is unwavering. With a deep understanding of their needs, I ensure each pet under my care receives personalized attention, affection, and the utmost comfort. Having navigated the joys and challenges of pet ownership, I bring a wealth of experience to every pet sitting opportunity. Your beloved companions are not just animals to me; they are cherished members of the family deserving of the best care possible. Count on me to go above and beyond to make your pets feel at ease, ensuring a seamless and enjoyable experience for both them and you. I can work every day of the week until January (when classes start) and on the weekends (Saturdays and Sundays) next year since I’m going to be in college. I live on a boarding school so I can take the dogs for a walk and my home is very safe for dogs and cats.
