Cat Sitting in Sugar Grove

“Our normal cat sitter had a family emergency and canceled our reservations. Meaghan was willing to help us on short notice. She did a fantastic job. We received daily updates and pictures. We had added a bunch of extra chores for her, one of the cats needing medication as such. She even kept up with vacuuming up the tiny bits of food that can tend to be thrown around when the cats eat. We came home to relaxed kitties and a clean house. We intended to contact her first if we ever have the need. Highly recommend!”

“Our pups loved meeting Kimberly! She's very knowledgeable and a great communicator. Looking forward to working with her more in upcoming visits.”

“Takes care of your dog like it is her own! Very thoughtful and intentional with the time she spends with your pet. Would trust her 100% with my dog.”

Maria K.

“Grace was friendly, responsive, and on time. My dog, who can be a bit shy and nervous around new people warmed up to Grace right away. That says a lot! Highly recommend.”

“Cynthia is a real find! We were very anxious about leaving our senior cat, Stephan, but from the very first moment, we knew he was in safe hands. Cynthia was incredibly gentle and attentive to his needs as an older cat. We received regular photo updates and check-ins, which kept us completely at ease. Stephan was calm and content when we returned, and our home was left in perfect order. We will definitely be booking with Cynthia again!”

About: I have 6+ years in experience with dogs/cats. I have watched puppies up to elderly dogs that need some more care. Here to be your best friend’s, best friend while you’re away. I am a 24 year old full time college student. I currently living on my own. My schedule is pretty flexible and I am willing to work early mornings/ late nights. I have always had a passion for taking care of people and animals. My partner is a veterinarian technician and since being with them, my love for animals has only grown deeper. My dream one day is to have a shelter or a safe haven for dogs/ cats who don’t have homes yet. I have experience with special schedules for feeding or sleeping. I also am very familiar with meditation schedules and certain care needs. Anything the owner needs to the dog/cat, I would love to do. Walks and playtime as well, I know getting energy out can be a very important thing!

“Milo and Buddy were well-cared for and happy to see Balbina at every visit. We especially loved the little song she composed for their last visit (even though they both look unimpressed in the video, they really secretly loved it!). Balbina will be our first choice next time we need her help!”

About: I have over two years of experience as a veterinary assistant, providing compassionate, reliable care for pets of all temperaments and needs. I can assist with daily care such as walking, feeding, playtime, grooming, and cleaning, as well as advanced medical care including administering medications (pill, liquid, and injectable), feeding tube support, and subcutaneous fluids. I also previously volunteered at a humane society, where I helped socialize, feed, and care for adoptable pets. I’ve worked with everything from anxious dogs to “spicy” cats and always strive to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. As a lifelong animal lover, I have been caring for pets since I was young and currently have four cats of my own—Zora, Mara, Fae, and Jinx. Caring for my own pets has strengthened my understanding of the patience, attention, and trust that pet parents value most. I would love the opportunity to provide that same level of care and compassion for your furry family members. I currently work full-time as a veterinary assistant, but I always make time to provide attentive care for your furry family members. I am typically available 4–6 days per week and keep my schedule updated regularly. If you have any specific requests or scheduling needs, feel free to message me directly—I’m happy to accommodate whenever possible! I will care for your furbabies with kindness, respect, and attention to their individual needs. I work closely with pet parents to understand each pet’s temperament, routines, and boundaries while providing a safe, stimulating, and comfortable environment. I also keep homes clean, monitor pets during walks and visits, and communicate any concerns or unusual behavior to ensure the best possible care and a trusting relationship with every client.

About: I’ve worked in animal care for years now and have taken care of my own pets for years before that. I have experience with a huge variety of sizes and breeds! I’m well versed in animal behavior and temperaments. I’ve worked with puppies all the way up to senior pets who may need a little extra care or attention. I have my own pets as well and have a deep understanding how much they can mean to us. I’m currently working on my certificate for dog grooming! I have yet to start school but this is a dream I’ve had for a while now. At the moment, I’m almost completely open for sitting. I think enrichment is very important for pets. For dogs, getting outside is a must. Many breeds require a lot of stimulation throughout the day in order to stay healthy in mind and body alike. For cats, some are independent players and toys are a must. Others may like to play with a person and that’s an activity that’s very important for them. I personally feed my animals once in the morning, once at night. My dog typically gets at least one walk a day and I make sure to take him out 2-3 times a day for potty breaks. Or even more if he lets me know he has to go. My one cat is an independent player so I leave her toys in her favorite places.

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life, with over 35 years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all kinds, including dogs, cats, bunnies, hamsters, and fish. I currently have a 6 year old furry dog baby of my own, Violet, a Basenji/Terrier mix, so I fully understand the daily needs, routines, and personalities that come with pet ownership. In addition to my own pets, I’ve regularly cared for neighbors and family members’ dogs and cats - providing feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship. I’m comfortable with different temperaments and always aim to make pets feel safe, happy, and cared for while their owners are away. I work full-time from home, which allows me the flexibility to take breaks throughout the day for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, and check-ins. This means your pet will receive consistent, reliable care without long gaps in attention. I’m available during weekdays with flexible daytime scheduling, as well as weekends. I do my best to accommodate routines so your pet’s schedule stays as normal and stress-free as possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I treat every home with respect and follow all instructions closely to ensure your pet stays in a familiar, secure environment. I’m attentive to details like feeding routines, leash safety, and making sure doors and gates are secure at all times. I also pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and comfort level, adjusting my approach to match their personality. You can expect dependable care, clear communication, and regular updates with photos so you always feel confident your pet is in good hands. :)

“Ally was a great sitter and a pleasure to work with! She was so great with our babies in our weekend away. It was our first time leaving them home, but we felt super safe know ally was looking in on them. We will definitely book with Ally again!”

“There aren't enough great things to say about Anja and Josh. They absolutely take care of Biz like he were their own sweet boy. I am completely at ease knowing he is in good hands. Thank you again for everything!”

Renee S.

“Lisa is a fellow cat lady for sure. She gets cats. Ours were completely enchanted by her. The love and care that she showed our cats made us feel better about leaving them home. She left detailed messages about what they were doing. Her videos and pictures made us smile.”

“First time using a sitter for my dog Roxi. Having Dawn help me with her care allowed me to enjoy a wonderful night with my family. I’ll be using her again when the need arises! She’s great ??. Thank you Dawn”

Kathy M.

“She stopped by ahead of the visit to meet Piper. She communicated throughout and went above and beyond. Do not hesitate to hire her to take care of your furry family members!”

About: I have 3 large dogs in my household, all of very different personalities. On top of that, friends and family have also relied on me to take care of their pets while they are away as well. Recently, I have taken interest in animal rescue, and have helped rescue and send an injured mallard to the Chicago Bird Collision Monitors. I am currently a student at west aurora highschool, and I am a member of the national honor society. I come home to my three dogs and sometimes go to Oswego to take care of my families pets over there as well. I will be able to regularly check up on your pets and keep them well hydrated and fed. As well as going on walks to stay active.

“Cassie was super sweet and patient with our 14 year old and 2 year old pups.”
