“Alexis took great care of our home and pets during her second stay. She was communicative and thoughtful about updates and leaving our place tidy. Thanks again for sitting over the holiday! We'll be back. :-)”

“Evan was terrific - great with the dogs, good communicator, and he left the house in wonderful condition. We booked him at the last minute and would definitely book him again. Highly recommended.”

“Second time booking Jayden and once again they left everything immaculate, my pets were so well cared for, and the communication was fantastic. Will definitely book them again!”

“Dominique did a great job with my 2 cats and 1 dog. She also took good care of my apartment. She sent me numerous of pictures and videos and also followed my instructions well especially pertaining to one of my cats who needs a little extra supervision. Thank you and I would book again.”

“Maia is the best sitter we’ve ever had. I can’t say enough good things about her. She’s kind and communicative and undoubtedly great with animals. We find our dog and 🐱 to be noticeably more content when she’s stayed with them than with any other sitter. She’s even seemed to win over my shy little cat who normally takes so long to warm up to people. It’s the biggest relief to leave them in her care and Maia will always be our first choice for a sitter.”

About: I have pet sit all kinds of loving dogs. Since I was 15 My family, friends and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, play with and care for their pets.

There also is a trail for us to walk as well. I am equipped to feed, walk and sing to your pup.
“Claire was fantastic. From the moment we met her, she was warm, professional, and clearly experienced with dogs. She took exceptional care of my anxious dog, Balu, and we were so relieved to come home to a relaxed, happy dog. Claire kept us updated with photos and messages throughout our trip, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. She stayed in our home and left everything spotless. We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter and wouldn’t hesitate to book her again if she’s available.”
“Ava was wonderful with our 3 pups. She knew how to manage their chaos and treated them so sweetly. She left the place looking great and really just went above and beyond. We will definitely be using her services again.”

About: It’s all about honoring the autonomy of each animal when building a bond plus providing them a safe and nurturing place to live and be while away from home. I am a Full-Time PET SITTER in Chicago running a cat sanctuary where our pet guests become a member of a loving family right away. We provide a healthy and safe space where pets are always free to roam plus enjoy the amenities of individual cat houses, window gazing, and human play.
About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up surrounded by dogs of all sizes and breeds, from a beloved Cocker Spaniel to two Giant Schnauzers and later a Pit Bull. Each one helped shape my love and understanding of animals and taught me how unique every pet’s personality can be. Today, I’m the proud owner of a French Bulldog who keeps me on my toes and a pet snake, giving me experience caring for both traditional and exotic pets. I’ve also spent time around cats through friends and family and am comfortable caring for feline companions as well. While attending Ball State University, I volunteered at local animal shelters, helping care for animals and supporting their daily needs. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, playful, or senior, I understand the importance of providing patience, attention, and loving care. I treat every animal as if they were my own and strive to make them feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Pet care is already a part of my daily routine, as I currently care for my own pets and understand the importance of consistency, attention, and reliability. I work as a State Farm agent in Chicago’s West Loop, and because it is a family-owned business that my family manages and operates daily, I have some flexibility within my schedule when needed. During the week, I am available for pet care before work, after work, and during my lunch break. Depending on the day and my workload, I may also have additional flexibility to accommodate specific care needs. On weekends, I typically have more availability and can provide extra time and attention for walks, drop-in visits, overnight care, and companionship. I am careful not to overbook myself because I believe every pet deserves quality care and attention. When I accept a booking, you can trust that I have the time and availability to provide dependable, attentive care and ensure your pet remains safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. At this time, I’m unable to offer boarding services in my home due to my own pets. However, I am happy to provide a variety of other services, including drop-in visits, dog walking, overnight stays, and personalized in-home pet care. My goal is to ensure your pets remain comfortable in their familiar environment while receiving the attention, companionship, and care they deserve. Whether your pet needs playtime, feeding, medication administration, exercise, or simply a reassuring presence while you’re away, I am committed to providing safe, reliable, and compassionate care tailored to their needs.
“Nicole was superb: friendly, prompt, communicative, and most of all, really great with our two puppies. They got more walks with her than they have in a very long time! She sent videos, photos, and updates each day, which we really appreciated. Will absolutely book her again.”

“Alexa was a very thoughtful, thorough, and kind sitter. She followed all the house rules and Nala rules. She left our home better than when we came back. We will definitely hire her again.”

“Tara is outstanding! She goes above & beyond. Tara is very kind to my dogs & treats them like her own babies. I can tell they were so happy and well taken care of. My dogs love her & we appreciate the comfort & walks she provided to them.”

“Right off the bat I got an excellent first impression of Nikki. She is very warm and friendly. She approached my cat slowly, allowing the greeting to be on my cat’s terms. It showed me she understood cats. During the stay she sent pictures and updates which put me at ease. Nikki was extremely flexible with booking times. When I got home my linens and towels were clean which was not requested or expected. She really above and beyond! She’s now my go-to gal! If you’re looking for someone kind, communicative and great with animals… well, look no further!”

Alexis took wonderful care of Cooper while I was away! She kept me updated with photos and videos throughout his stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear that Cooper was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. When I returned, my apartment was just as neat and clean as I had left it, which I really appreciated. Alexis was reliable, communicative, and treated both Cooper and my home with great care. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter, and I would gladly book with her again!

Dominique did a great job with my 2 cats and 1 dog. She also took good care of my apartment. She sent me numerous of pictures and videos and also followed my instructions well especially pertaining to one of my cats who needs a little extra supervision. Thank you and I would book again.

Mia took good care of Doby while I was away. She kept me updated with photos and she left my house clean and tidy. Knowing Doby was in such good hands made my vacation so much more relaxing. I would absolutely book Mia again for my next trip and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter!

Niayla was wonderful. It was my first time leaving my cat, Camille, at home by herself for two weeks and Niayla clearly gave her so much love, attention, and cuddles while I was gone. It really put my mind at ease to have someone in my home who so obviously truly cared for Camille. I could tell in all the photos and from the updates that they really enjoyed each other’s company and could not be more grateful to have found Niayla on this app!

Emily was an excellent dog sitter and I would hire her again. She was communicative and sent updates throughout the day which gave me great peace of mind. I never had to reach out and ask how my dog was doing because she proactively kept me informed. She was also accommodating with my dog’s feeding routine and mindful of his reactivity to bikes/scooters which I really appreciate. When I returned home everything was exactly as I had left it. I highly recommend Emily.

Rahmya was amazing! She was very flexible in setting up a meet and greet and instantly prioritized befriend Stormie. I got lots of updates and update pictures daily of stormie which made the whole process of being out of town much easier. I never felt like Stormie wasn't in good hands. The home was clean and perfectly tidy when we arrived back, which was so appreciated when returning from our trip. I would 100% recommend Rahmya for anyone looking for a pet sitter 💙

Claire was fantastic. From the moment we met her, she was warm, professional, and clearly experienced with dogs. She took exceptional care of my anxious dog, Balu, and we were so relieved to come home to a relaxed, happy dog. Claire kept us updated with photos and messages throughout our trip, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. She stayed in our home and left everything spotless. We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter and wouldn’t hesitate to book her again if she’s available.
Jasmine is the epitome of caring combined with professionalism. She took care of my small shorkie for an extended stay and when i returned my pet was calm and well cared for. Jasmine checked in every day with a quick message update and pics to let me know how things were coming along. She even checked in on the plants as well. Highly recommend this sitter and will use her again

Dahlia was fantastic to work with. She was great at communicating and sent daily updates of our pups while we were out of town. I felt confident our pets were well cared for. She was respectful of our home as well. I would definitely recommend Dahlia for any housesitting and pet needs.
