“Judy was absolutely wonderful to work with for our dog Simba. We felt comfortable and relaxed to leave him for an extended time for the first time.

“My skiddish Golden doodle is always very comfortable with Christine. I know she is being treated well and cared for. Peace of mind when I can't take her with me. Thank you Christine!”

“Jae and her family were amazing to my sweet puppy. I could not have asked for a better family to take care of my dog; we felt absolutely blessed to have such a perfect home when we were gone. The entire family treated her like she was part of the family, and I always felt comforted on my vacation to receive pictures of my dog enjoying her days with her interim family. I will absolutely only use Jae now. And our dogs have become great friends too, so what an incredible bonus!”

“Michael and Janet have been wonderfully patient and compassionate with my two Chihuahuas, one of whom is elderly and has special dietary needs while the other is a rescue still getting acclimated. They took the time to win my dogs' trust, providing pets and outside time in a crate-free environment. I feel lucky to have found them!”

About: I have had dogs my whole life. Watching family and friends dogs gives me great joy! Dogs have been a part of my whole life. I love them dearly, my sister in law travels quite often which gives me the opportunity to watch her two dogs. One is a puppy full of energy and they are so fun to spend time with and play. Love going on walks to the forest preserves out in nature. let me be your dogs new friend. I work four days a week Tuesday thru Friday until 3:30pm. I'm available for boarding Friday nights thru Monday. I can take dogs for walks on Mondays, Weekends, and Tuesday-Friday after 4. I have a big home plenty of space to run around and play. My backyard is good size and fenced in. I can update you with photos of your dog. I can maintain the feeding schedule as required. I will make sure your dog has plenty outdoor time walks or just playing in my yard.
“Hannah was incredible! She has such a way with dogs. You can tell from the moment you meet her, that she is just the most warm and caring person, and that extends to all the furry friends, too. She was flexible, asked all the pertinent questions, sent daily updates, and I loved all the pictures she sent. I would absolutely trust her to take care of my dog again. Highly highly recommend!”

“Prithvi cared for Bruno for about a week and the experience exceeded our expectations. From the very beginning, Prithvi was communicative and attentive, keeping us regularly updated with messages and photos that gave us complete peace of mind. It was clear that Bruno was not only well looked after but also genuinely happy and comfortable in her care. I would highly recommend Prithvi to anyone looking for a responsible and compassionate dog boarder. She truly treats your pet like her own.”

“Leigh and her family provide the very best care for your dog! She sent daily updates with great pictures and was very responsive to all of our questions. We will definitely book another stay with Leigh on our next trip.”

“Jacob made this whole experience so easy, made us feel safe leaving our pet behind while on vacation, and we are confident that our Odie had such a good time! He is passionate about his clients and communicated with us the entire time. I would highly recommend leaving your precious pooch with him and feel great that they are being cared for and kept safe. Thank you Jacob for everything!”

“Kyle and his family did a great job taking care of my dog Sugar. My mom passed away this week and he was available on very short notice, which I am grateful for. Anyway very communicative with pictures, etc, my experience justifies the other positive reviews... great person and family to take care of your dog!”


“YAQI took such great care of our Latte! She was very attentive and thoughtful, and she sent us lots of photos every day so we always knew how Latte was doing. He was so happy staying with her, and we felt truly at ease the entire time. We will definitely book with YAQI again the next time we.”

Mochi was very happy when we met with Deidre and I could see how happy Mochi was in the different pictures that were sent. Thank you for taking such good care of our dog!”

“Megan took wonderful care of my 8‑month‑old golden retriever during his very first 5‑day boarding stay.

I’m very happy with her service and will definitely recommend her and book with her again.”

“Katerina, Thank you for looking after our cats while we were away! They were very well taken care of and we will definitely be rebooking for our future cat-sitting needs!”


“Kelsey watched our cat for a week while we were out of town. She was always on time, took great photos and took excellent care of “our boy.” An issue came up with our garage door opening on its own, and Kelsey quickly got in touch with us and manually closed the door. And she made sure our house was secure. She made us feel completely secure knowing our house and our cat were being taken care of. We would definitely use Kelsey’s services again.”

“Christina was a huge help in watching our cat. The cat is not used to being alone and we were gone for over 2 weeks. He needed oral medication during that time which is very difficult to administer. Christina mastered it all. She was great at communicating status updates with pictures. He got his medicine. They also played pointer tag together. It was great to be able to relax and feel comfortable knowing our cat was in such good hands.”

“Our kitty was in great hands with Sara, she was very attentive and shared frequent updates with pics. I wouldn't think twice about boarding again with Sara. Thanks for taking such good care of Jasper!”


“We’ve been using Doug as a pet sitter for a while now, and we highly recommend him. Doug is not only reliable but also genuinely enthusiastic about caring for our cats. We never have to worry about anything when they’re in his care. He ensures they get plenty of attention, including playtime and cuddles, which helps keep them happy while we’re away. Our cats require daily medication, and Doug handles this with ease, showing he’s comfortable with more complex care needs. I highly recommend his services to anyone—your pets will be in excellent hands, and you’ll have peace of mind knowing they’re well cared for.”


“Darien did a wonderful job looking after our senior cat! She took great care of him and also looked after our house to make sure there were no messes - she even took our garbage out and brought packages in! She went above and beyond and we would highly recommend her! Thank you, Darien!”

About: I have watched dogs for friends and family since I was 12. I have cared for all sizes of dogs and own two dogs myself, one of which is a senior so I am familiar with special needs and instructions. I have been trusted to drop in, feed, let out, and walk dogs and have been trusted to stay overnight with them. I am familiar with special feeding instructions or any quirks that come with every individual dog :) While I am on summer break from school, this is the only job I have so I am frequently available to drop by. I am usually free any day of the week from mid morning until late at night. As long as I am aware ahead of time I will most likely make it fit into my schedule! I will not be offering to care for pets in my own home because one of my dogs has some trust issues with other animals.
“Haven is amazing! She is very conscientious, always on time, very communicative and most importantly, she cares very much about the happiness and well being of your pet. She’s the best pet sitter we’ve ever used!”


“I’ve had a few sitters in the past when I’ve been out of town since 2023. I believe Jennifer, by far, has been the best sitter I’ve had. She is willing to go the extra mile (literally) to take care of my cat. Jennifer called an Uber when her car had issues to make sure she was able to provide medication to my cat. Jennifer was always updating me on the situation, and was in constant communication with me. She made sure that the surrounding cat-related common areas (fountains, litter, feeder) were clean and ready for both cats that we have. I would, with no reservations, hire Jennifer again should the opportunity be available.”

About: “Dog fever” doesn’t even begin to cover it — my girlfriend and I are counting down the days until we can bring home a new puppy. I’m the kind of person who can’t pass a dog on the street without stopping to say hello, so you can imagine how excited I get around animals. I’m a private contractor working remotely with a very flexible schedule. I can shift my day to day schedule and adapt to most needs you may have. I am a very attentive person with patience and much affection. I hope to keep your pets routine consistent & stress-free with exercise, playtime, or just extra attention.
“Aury was so flexible with our Pepper. Originally booked for 3 days drop in visit, but due to our flight cancellations, we had to extend 2 extra days. Aury went above and beyond to make sure Pepper was fed and got his medicine, and the ease of adding extra days made me feel a lot better about not being home in time. Will definitely be using Aury again for our next vacation.”

About: I am a retired high school educator, artist, outdoor enthusiast, and animal lover. I am a five-star walker and a very reliable and compassionate caregiver for your pet. I often feel we are kindred spirits and I am totally intrigued by their individual personalities. I have cared for dogs both personally or professionally for most of my life and willingly care for your pet and their individual needs. Whether it be exploring adventure, padding the neighborhood (walking or running), gifting belly rubs, or providing hydration & nutrition, your pet’s needs will be personalized while in my care with much love and affection. In the future, I hope to rehabilitate dogs and work with their family members to provide a safe space filled with discipline, affection, and a true sense of belonging. You can depend on me and trust that your pet will feel cherished and loved while in my care. Since retiring from teaching, my hours of 1:1 attention have expanded. I am now available to give full weekday hours to your pet in addition to my time during weekends. While caring for pets in parks and neighborhoods, I keep them on a leash during all walks and runs. If we are lounging in the yard I provide the dog an opportunity to relax on a lead while I am outdoors with them. For owners who allow their dogs to visit Lakewood Dog Park’s expansive exercise area, I monitor those dogs while they run and play off leash under my constant supervision. While indoors, I follow the rules that my pet owners prefer whether it be cuddling on furniture and slumbering in bed with me or crating them within their cozy caves with their favorite snuggle toy. I do everything I can to mirror the eating, playing, and napping comfort with the same positive experiences your pet receives in your living home while throwing in a little extra spoiling 🐶❤️🐶

About: I grew up with dogs, cats, bunnies, and other animals in-between! In the last 17 years, I've been a cat mom, and recently had a dog with my ex-partner (who I still care for when they're out of town). The only constant in my life has been animals, and I get such a joy out of playing with them, taking them on walks, cuddles, and seeing their personalities come out. I used to work at a pet store (back in the day), and in the last 5 years, actually helped stray dogs + cats in my neighborhood find incredible families. I know basic dog training (like sit, stay, break, etc), and I'm quick to learn whatever else you do with your dog or cat to make their time as normal as possible as you're away. I work from home during the week and can take care of walking, feeding, and socialization. I'm also a performing musician so I travel around the Chicago-land area frequently. I like to keep your pet's day as normal as possible. I understand how nerve-wracking it can be for pet parents and the pets when there's disruption in their routine, so I try to do everything as it normally is - feeding, walking, training, giving treats, etc.
“Natalie was great! She walked Robbie for one hour when I had a long day at work and took pictures and gave him water. Highly recommend Natalie! She is very easy to work with and took good care of my pup”

“Haven was so great with our dog. She was available on short notice and went above and beyond to take care of our dog that has anxiety. He felt very comfortable with her right away. I would highly recommend Haven as a dog walker/sitter!”

About: Growing up I was raised in a very pet friendly household surrounded by animal lovers. I have kept this quality well into my adult years and have made it my mission to extend love and respect to every animal I meet and care for. Dog or cat, they will be treated kindly and with respect. As I am currently attending school from home, I am available weekdays for visits in the mornings and/or evenings. Unfortunately afternoons I am not available. I make it my duty to learn about every animals individual needs; their likes, dislikes, and sensitivities. I will make sure to keep on hand any emergency information such as general vet and emergency vet details. At the first sign of issue, I will make sure your animal will receive the care they need while keeping you in the loop every step of the way.
About: I have had pets (dogs, cats, horses, fish) since I was a baby. Caring for them feels like a natural task! I have pet sat for many neighbors and friends, and I would love to share some love with your pets as well :) I work as a nurse 3 days a week, so I have 4 days off that I would love to spend with your pets! My schedule changes weekly but I am very flexible with my off days. I love pet parents who know what their pets need. Leave me with simple instructions and I will follow your lead! I love to clean as well, so you won’t have to worry about returning home to a mess.

“Yamile is super nice and you can tell she likes pets. She took good care of my dog and cat. I also appreciated that her dog was very chill, even around my cat (they barely acknowledged each other!). Would book with her again.”

“We had such a great experience leaving Phoebe with Rhondarose and her family! From the moment we dropped her off, she felt at ease and settled in quickly. When we picked her up the next day, she was relaxed, happy, and clearly well cared for. It’s such a relief to know she was in good hands, and we’ll absolutely be booking with Rhondarose again in the future!”


“Our two dogs love staying with Angela. Her love for dogs is obvious as she treats them like they are her own. Angela sends lots of pictures and lets us know how they’re doing during their stay. We have used Angela’s services several times and will continue to do so in the future!”

“Upasana was an amazing host for Nysa! She treated her like her own and kept us updated with regular pictures and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She made sure Nysa was fed on time, comfortable, and well cared for throughout her stay. It was clear that Nysa received lots of love and attention, and we were able to enjoy our time away completely stress-free knowing she was in great hands. We are incredibly grateful for the care Upasana provided and would absolutely leave Nysa with her again in the future. Highly recommend!”

“We had a wonderful experience with JoAnne. Our lab dog, Charlie got very spoiled for the short time we had him stay with JoAnne. She kept us informed oh how he was doing and sent us pics to put us at ease. We will definitely use her again!!! Charlie got a doggie bag to take home with a tennis bag and treats. Very nice of her to make him feel so special.”
