“I have used this app throughout the years and Nicholas is by far THE BEST! He is reliable, on time, communicates very well and leaves no trace. As a matter of fact, he left our place looking better than it was when we went away. Most importantly, our dog and cat were calm and happy - they were definitely in good hands. We recommend Nicholas and hope he is available for our family again in the future.”
“A fantastic sitter who truly goes above and beyond. During a storm, a tree blocked our road, and she and her partner helped clear it—an incredibly kind and unexpected gesture. She also took the initiative to restock our dog food, which saved us a trip after a long vacation. The dogs were happy and well-cared for, and we loved the photo updates. We'll definitely be booking with her again! Both of these options highlight the incredible things Lillian did, focusing on her proactive nature and the peace of mind she gave you. They also end on a positive note that makes it easy for other dog owners to see why she's a great choice.”
“Katherine is the best! She kept our animals very happy and would send pictures of them out of walks or playing. She is responsive and very kind! I would hire her again. She left our house very neat and tidy.”
“Casey was great! One of our furbabies needs a lot of meds throughout the day. She gave us lots of updates and sent pictures which made us feel at ease while away! We definitely recommend her!”
“I was very happy with Sarah's services. She "house sat" with my dog and things seem to go well. She took him for walks and from the pictures was very attentive to him. She even ran a last minute errand for me while we were out of town! Would like to use her services again and highly recommend her.”
“We highly recommend Marlie!! Our other sitter had to cancel last minute and Marlie was able to jump in and help us almost immediately! She was extremely professional and asked us all the right questions. You could definitely tell she has a lot of experience caring for animals. She sent us pictures each day with updates on how our dog Winnie was doing. She was very respectful of our home and even left “Pet Sitting Report Cards” for us to know how Winnie did each day. Marlie went above and beyond and we will definitely try to book her again! We had so much peace of mind while Marlie was caring for Winnie!”
About: I’ve had dogs for over 10 years, especially small dogs, as well as cats for the last three. I enjoy taking care of all creatures, great and small, and I live in a neighborhood perfect for walking. I do have a standard 9 to 5 jobs, but they are OK with pets in the building. I am easily able to take them outside for potty break. I have a neighborhood with only one entrance before cars, and is extremely safe. It is the perfect area to go for a walk. There is an open space in the middle of the neighborhood. Great for playing fetch. I have aI have a neighborhood with only one entrance before cars, and is extremely safe.

“Camryn was wonderful caring for our pups at our place. We were out of town for a wedding for 4 days and you wouldn't even have known anyone was at our place. I would highly recomend having Camryn look after your home and/or dogs.”

About: I’ve taken care of family members’ pets since I was about 13. However, in the last 3 years I’ve built up my client list and have 4 consistent customers whose dogs, cats, and parrots I watch for days at a time. I’m trusted with house keys to watch their animals, feed them at specific times, administer needed medications at specific times, take them for walks, and give lots of love and attention. I’m currently working full time (9-5) in downtown Chicago. I live in Uptown, and would love to make some extra cash on the side doing something I really enjoy - walking dogs! My availability M-F is any time after 6. On the weekends I’m very flexible and open to anything. Unfortunately, at this time in my life I will not be providing home boarding, crating, or pet-sitting services at my own personal residence. Sorry for the inconvenience.
“We are so grateful to Alyssa for taking such good care of Sophie. We left her for the 1st time in 6 years, and Alyssa took wonderful care of her and kept us at ease every day with updates and pictures. Sophie isn't easy, and she is like our child, so trust me when I say that you can trust Alyssa with your fur baby. We will not hesitate to call Alyssa when we go anywhere again, and now we have the peace of mind to make future plans!”
“Ivanis did everything this rather nervous owner asked. She even made two trips to get familiar with Piper and everything went well. I recommend without hesitation.”
“Ronnie was the best! He housesat our dog Goose for a week and watched over my two kitties. He kept everything organized, sent frequent pics, and left the house cleaner than it was when he got here. Super trustworthy and communicative and spent so much time with our pup while we were away. Thank you Ronnie!”
