I came home to happy pups, that’s all I can ask for. Lizbeth was very sweet with my 3 dogs who all differ in personality. She was easy to communicate with and kept me updated while I was away. I will be using her again for future sitting needs.

Patricia was an incredible sitter for my two cats, Kimchi and Bumi! Her communication was clear, prompt, and consistent throughout the stay, I always felt in the loop. She was flexible with a few last-minute changes, which I really appreciated. But what truly stood out was how thoughtful she was: with a major back injury, I couldn’t manage the litter or trash, and she kindly took care of both without hesitation. Her support made it possible for me to actually enjoy my trip without worry. Highly recommend Patricia, your pets (and you) will be in great hands!

Kat took amazing care of Doby and my apartment while I was away. She shared photos, communicated well, and even waited for me until I got home! Doby was happy and well cared for, and my place was just as I left it (even cleaner! )I’ll definitely book her again. Highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Grace was absolutely amazing and my dog had a great time while Grace dogsat her for 2 nights! She provided multiple text and photo updates throughout the day, was very respectful of my home, and most importantly took great care of my mini dachshund Bella. She followed all my care instructions and provided a recap of everything when we arrived back home. I would highly recommend and will definitely be reaching back out to Grace for future dogsitting needs!

Diane came and watched our little girl Penelope for a day so my husband and I could get out of the house. Penelope was new to Chicago and having a tough time settling in - we wanted Penelope to have someone with her while we were out to ensure she was comfortable. Diane was absolutely phenomenal from the start - an excellent communicator and made us feel comfortable right away. You can tell she is extremely expert when it comes to the care of animals. Penelope can be very shy/anxious and tends to run away/hide when she is stressed. Diane got down on the floor with Penelope and patiently waited for her to come out when she was ready. Diane sent us photos throughout the day along with updates/messages which made me feel so much better and allowed me to relax while we were out. I was amazed at how quickly Penelope warmed to Diane and felt totally confident in Diane taking care of my baby. Diane is absolutely such a wonderful person, I would recommend her to anyone and will absolutely hope to have her back!

Malcolm is very flexible and punctual! He gave our dogs so much attention and love. I have a reactive and anxious dog I was very worried of being away from, but she loved him and did well. He provides thorough updates and is detailed. Would recommend for dog walks and house sitting needs!

About: I am aware of pets’ needs. Whether they need a slow, assisted stroll or an energetic play session, I’ve got you covered. I have vast experience in caring for mobility-impaired seniors (including administering meds and using lifting harnesses), reactive dogs, as well as puppies who need active socialization and clear boundaries. From personal experience, I have 3 dogs of my own (including an 11 year old senior) and I recognize each pet as an individual with differing personalities and needs. Working part-time from home gives me the flexibility to be there when your pet needs me most. I can easily shift my working hours to accommodate specific walk times or multiple drop-ins throughout the day, ensuring your pet stays on their preferred schedule. Before every stay, I conduct a thorough meet and greet to understand your pet's routine and your home's security needs (alarms, locks, and gates). While in your home, I am extremely detail-oriented and will be sure to keep your pet and home safe. I am a non-smoker, clean, and respectful guest. You can expect daily photo updates and quick communication so you can relax knowing your fur babies and your home are in safe hands.

We had meet and great and Cristian took his time to pick up keys and go over the care instructions with us. He sent videos everyday and kept us update when he headed out to walk the dogs. We felt very peaceful during our trip knowing that our babies were in great care. Thank you!

Thank you so much for taking care of Ginger! I was sad to leave her for the week but was happy I got to see a bunch of pictures of her having a good time. Thanks for following all my directions and loving on her for me while I was gone!

Emily took wonderful care of my two pups, one of whom is blind. She did a fantastic job and kept in touch with me throughout my trip, just as I had requested, which gave me great peace of mind. She stayed overnight for five nights, and honestly, there was no sign she had even been here—my house was somehow cleaner than when I left! I will absolutely be using her again without hesitation.

I cannot say enough good things about Jesica, she is the absolute best!! She took such wonderful care of our senior dog, Milo. I received lots of pictures and videos so we can him daily as we were out of town for our daughters wedding. She even handed out candy to the trick or treaters. She is loving, compassionate and trustworthy. Do not hesitate to have her stay at your house to watch your doggies. Thank you one million times, Jessica!

Christine was wonderful and took great care of the furbabies while I was away for the weekend. She has such a warm heart and was very accommodating. She loved all of my foster kitties despite them being a bit too playful at times:) I can tell she truly enjoys the company of my pups and kitties, and I know everyone is in great hands when she's in the house.
