“Mercedes has been nothing but wonderful. She took great care of our puppy who was only 5 months old. There was never a moment I had to worry about my dog not being in good care. She kept us updated, sent lots of pictures, and ensured us she was having a great time. She took our puppy on many walks and played with her lots! Her husband and her kids also loved the dog and got many pictures of them cuddling with her. I cannot recommend her enough, and went above and beyond! Mercedes is passionate about taking care of dogs and her kids and husband also have a deep love for animals. Next time we got out of town she will be the first person we call and recommend her to all our family and friends!”

“Sarai was awesome. Even though our conversations were short due to a language barrier, she took care of Aly like she was one of her own. She allowed her to burrow on her sofa and even sleep on her bed. Aly had play time with other dogs and she had fun romping around in a huge fenced in yard. Sarai also updated daily with photos and videos. I will be booking her again for two weeks.”

“Susseth made this process easygoing. We’ve had our pup dog for 9yrs and have never left her alone this long. Loved the communication Susseth maintained with us throughout our trip to give us peace of mind our Ariel was doing well. Will definitely work with Susseth again!”

“When we meet Tanisha I knew she was special. Her interview was thorough and professional. Her credentials were obvious. I was only looking for an occassional sitter, and someone i could board Charley with during my vacation. The next couple of months proved that i had made the best decision ever in selecting Tanisha. We have had consistent daycare since January 2017 and i was so at ease boarding Charley for my 6 day vacation in April. I could not have found a more caring and competent person to care for my Charley. She is so committed to quality care. She provides frequent communications including pictures to keep you at ease with the stay. She notices things about Charley's behavior that I may have been curious about and offers training solutions. We will be with Tanisha as long as she will have us. Since Charley and Zuri are now bffs she can never get rid of us. ”

“I recently had the pleasure of booking Kendra for a last minute weekend stay for my favorite fur baby Rogue. Kendra got back to me rapidly after I requested to book and immediately set up a meet and greet session in an area convenient for the both of us. She has very good energy and her natural love and care for dogs showed right away in how she greeted Rogue. She was very clear on her instructions for the weekend stay and sent ample updates and pics to make sure we knew that Rogues was being well taken care of during her stay. I would definitely book Kendra again, and felt that she did a wonderful job taking care of our dog especially with such short notice.”

“Genuinely the most kind hearted and understanding person I have ever met in my life. Was so patient and flexible during the most chaotic move I have ever experienced.”

“Kyla was incredible!! From the initial contact to pickup, she was friendly and professional. She took the time to know my dog’s needs and preferences. She sent me regular updates and photos of my pup, which put me at ease while I was away! I highly recommend Kyla for a trustworthy and caring place for their dog. I’ll definitely be booking again!”

“Ethel did a great job with my dog bacon. She kept in contact with me throughout the visit. Bacon seemed to be happy and had other dogs to play with. Ethel was easy to contact and kept all appointments.”

“Liliana and her family gave me such peace of mind to leave my Whiskey in their care. The initial visit with the family in their beautiful home was so warm and friendly. And while I was away, I was so grateful for the updates and pics throughout each day. Whiskey got attached to one of Liliana’s teenage daughters. So sweet!”

“I was apprehensive leaving my rescue dog for the very first time in the nearly one year we've been together, but Phyllis and Greg were absolutely wonderful hosts and made the entire experience stress-free. They were warm and friendly and provided a calm environment. Great communication. They'll be my dog's new home-away-from-home.”

“My dog Buddy had the best of time with Janet. I would highly recommend Janet. Buddy was almost sad returning home. I received pictures during the stay which I really loved. Thank you Janet for making my dog feel at home and loved!”

“Tamara is a sweetheart! We were in town for the Stones concert and needed a sitter for the night! She was very nice, prompt and kept us updated. Our Boston, Maggie, loved her and had a great time. Next time we are passing thru town we will definitely contact Tamara. Thanks so much!”

“This whole experience has been just amazing. From the constant reassurance of videos and texts to the undeniable love for dogs is what made us so happy with the care we received for Milo. We were a little wary leaving our little guy for a couple of days, but we’re very surprised to learn he was having a better time there than he was at home. He made a lot of little friends and received so much love. Will definitely be booking again in the future!!!!!”

“Angelina went above and beyond caring for our Butterscotch. Excellent communication and multiple pictures sent every day. She even noticed his itchy skin issue and offered to recommend homeopathic remedies. Will definitely be booking with her again.”

“It was our first time boarding Koda, so we were a little nervous about how he would handle it. Megan made the entire experience incredibly comforting and seamless. She kept us updated throughout the day, responded quickly, and truly put our minds at ease. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would recommend her to anyone.”

“I would love to say that Ethel is the only sitter I have tried, and I am honestly never going to try another person. My cat is always well taken care of when I am gone. Ethel communicated with me everyday and always has. Thank you!”


“Patrick took excellent care of my senior cat. He proactively sent me photos and let me know when he checked in on her. He sent photos almost daily which I appreciated. It was great to come home to a clean home and love on my cat. I'm grateful to have a great sitter closeby.”


About: I'm a pet care provider with over 10 years of professional experience in caring for all kinds of animals. I've owned and cared for cats my whole life. I have worked with a TNR rescue the past few years getting pregnant females and unneutered male cats fixed and cared for. I have experience providing subcutaneous fluids as well as oral and topical medications. I have cared for bottle-fed kittens, ailing senior cats and everything in-between. I always care for every animal as if they are my own and I understand how important it is for them to feel safe, comfortable and loved.

About: I take time to learn each cat's personality and temperament. I have 3 cats of my own, one of them which has medical needs. I provide regular updates to give you a peace of mind. I have experience in litter box cleaning, administering oral and subcutaneous medication.
“Kathryn is a very conscientious worker, and the pet sitter of my dreams! She spent extensive time with my cat, way beyond my expectations. She gave Jim Cats by constant attention, and he loved her and looked content in the many fabulous photos she sent. I was thrilled to feel connected through these updates, and to see my cat luxuriating in the petting and good care. Kathryn also diligently communicated about house challenges and solved them— again, going above and beyond. She is very flexible, patient. understanding, and helpful. Somehow Kathryn also made time to leave the house in perfect condition, exactly as she found it. She is a fantastic worker and pet whisperer, and we hope she will come back many times in the future.”

About: I’ve always had a natural connection with animals, especially dogs, and finally welcomed my own pup, Leia, into my life five years ago. Since then, I’ve handled all of her training, walks, feeding schedule, etc., myself. I learned a lot from years of watching "It’s Me or the Dog," and put what I've learned into practice with my dog, Leia. What sets me apart is my mix of genuine love for dogs, hands‑on training experience, and a calm, reliable presence. I’m excited to meet your pup and give them a walk they’ll remember; one that’s safe, stimulating, and tailored to their personality. I am a college student at DePaul University, majoring in Finance and Criminology. I commute on Tuesdays and Thursdays, so I am free to walk your furry friend any day that isn't Tuesday or Thursday :) I have one energetic five-year-old Wheaton terrier whom I have trained by myself. I walk her at least once a day, feed her, play with her, and train her when time allows. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow your established rules and routines to ensure your dog feels comfortable and stress‑free. I pay close attention to safety — from securely leashing during walks to double‑checking doors, gates, and feeding instructions. My goal is to treat your pet and your home with the same care and respect I give my own.
“Hades loved being taken care of by Melanie! She attended to his needs and followed all our notes! Easy to talk to and trustworthy. I'll be hitting up Melanie for an future cat sitting!”

“Melissa was great!! Like most I was so anxious to leave my dog while at work all day. She was awesome with my dog and sent pics of him looking so happy and gave him treats. I video chatted with her prior and knew she truly is an animal lover.”

“Great job and very attentive to my dogs needs. Did really well with calming out puppy and with my dogs little quirks like how she gets leash on and doggie stress. On time. Gave feedback. Very much hoping to have her mind our Moonshine again”

“Jenifer gets a five-star rating for communication and promptness. She was friendly and understanding. She went above and beyond to make sure my fur baby, Blue, felt comfortable his night/day in her care. She kept me updated on his progress and I felt confident with him in her care.”

Your pet’s happiness and comfort are my top priority, think of me as their new favorite buddy.

“Great experience with Ethel. We came in from out of town to watch a Red Stars game and she took care of our bernedoodle, Frankie. Ethel’s place is a very short way from SeatGeek Stadium and Frankie came back to us happy.”

“Susseth provided the best care for cooper during his daycare visit. She made sure all his needs were met, engaged him with play and sent lots of photo and video updates. I got cooper back fully exhausted and ready for a good night of sleep! I will definitely be using her services again.”

“Sarai did great with our dogs. They immediately felt at home with her, and they came home happy and well cared for. She sent photos and video of their visit. Her house was clean, and she had a nice big yard for them to run around outside. She was great!!”

About: I’ve had a dog in our lives for the past 12 years who passed away a couple months ago. We rescued 3 kittens in 2021. Jack is our oldest cat and he is quite a character. Luz is our middle cat and she is the sweetest little thing to look at/she loves to talk. Baby is our not so little baby and is such a friendly loving cat. I’m currently working 80% remote from home during the week and available on the weekends. Having my cats at home have kept me company and make the day go by faster. My cats have free range of our home and no restrictions. They have their favorite spots to nap during the day which is our bathroom, under my teenagers beds and on my bed while I work. We have snack and play time but mostly love to lounge during the day. We’re looking to add some additional character in our environment. Our home will be your pets second home.
“Julian is very good with my sammy. He was gentle and kind and got my sammy to do things he was never doing in the house and that’s with one day with him! Julian kept me updated with messages and pictures throughout the day which really reassured me and my peace of mind. Definitely will be returning with sammy in the future!”

“Athena took wonderful care of our 9-year old yellow lab. She was available less than 24 hours for 1 day of dog sitting. Our dog was happy and relaxed when we picked her up. I highly recommend Athena to watch your pet!”

“Very happy to have found Kassandra, she’s very caring and I know my baby was very happy, and felt right at home while in her care. Definitely rebooking! Thanks Kassandra, see you soon.”
“She is such a great person inside and out! Did a doggy date care to have my puppy aquatinted with her kids and other dogs she was boarding and everything went well! She even gave my puppy a bath. I was very comfortable and satisfied to know my dog was and is in good hands! Highly recommend!!!”

“Phyllis and Greg, are wonderful dog sitters! They have a lot of experience with dogs and a beautiful park right out front of their house that the dogs walk in. Sugar loved it there and was so happy to see them at her first return visit.”

About: We have had dogs in my household growing up since I was an infant. I grew up with dog care responsibilities and chores my entire life. I have a very flexible work from home schedule so I am home all day. I have plenty of time for play time and walks! I do not currently have any dogs but I do have a fenced yard to keep your doggie safe and a large office with plenty of space for them to hang out with me when they’re inside.
About: Animals are freakin awesome and I love them! I've had snails, a bird, frogs, co-owned cats (one at a time), as well as cat sit. I grew up with a dog, and spent 15+years with my beloved baby Shiba Inu Kenji. He had one eye, lots of arthritis, kidney issues, and half his teeth in the end but was full of life! Very familiar with meds and schedules and special needs, natural food etc. Not ready for another and didn't know much about this service. I wish l'd have known, so let me help YOU! (Note- i cannot take dogs over 60lbs, check box options are limited. Thanks for understanding) I work from home so can be available for full days, or as needed. Weekends I may have some things to do but will prioritize where needed. I do not have a crate, but you can provide. Otherwise I have bowls and beds and cones of shame as well as soft flower cone where needed. I also have gates and a pen, and multiple doors. I treat my animals (mine or family friends) like a kid. Safety always, lots of love, and a fun time!
About: I am careful to heed owners instructions on how to care for their furbaby to create peace of mind and maintain a respectful relationship between the animals and humans. I work Full-time on the weekend. I can accept reservations and check-ins starting by 3PM on Mondays. Pets must be checked-out/picked up by 3PM Saturday. Currently have 2 Siberian huskies to entertain your pooch. Both huskies are well-socialized and engage very well with other canines. House is cleaned and sanitized on the daily to prevent any contagious illnesses. Exercise is done through nature trails in the area. If owners are comfortable with dog parks, I am a member to multiple private dog parks to ensure privacy and freedom to run around from other unauthorized/stranger canines.
“Thank you for taking such wonderful care of our pup Lulu! She seemed very comfortable at drop off and happy at pick up! I appreciate you feeding her as requested and keeping me posted while I was away! See you soon again!”


“Jim was great, the dogs ran right in his house and started inspecting. Kinda like when you think your kid is going to want to stay with you on the first day of preschool and they run in without looking back. Jim will definitely be first choice going forward.”

About: I can guarantee your pet is cared for and has everything they need to be comfortable. Their needs will be prioritized and met. My whole life pets have gravitated towards me and felt safe next to me. Pet care is in my everyday routine because I have my dog Oreo. From the time I wake up, my Oreo is there and ready to start the day with me. He loves going outside first thing and then coming back in to eat and relax. We also have daily walks and enrichment activities to keep him healthy. I care for pets by providing fresh and clean food and water, clean litter or outside potty breaks, attention and enrichment through playing, and a comfortable place to sleep & relax. (and of course treats!)

“Jennifer was a lifesaver for us in walking our pup while we were out of town. She was very flexible and accommodating and did a great job communicating updates throughout walks. Definitely recommend and will book again!”

“Amanda did such a thorough job, giving my dog the love and attention she needed so I could go on my first vacation since she was a puppy. I couldn’t be more pleased to have someone I can trust.”


About: Available on some weekdays and weekends, will incorporate lots of exercise and playtime, have years of experience with caring for dogs, like my dog Benji. I don’t prefer to do house-boarding just because my current family dog isn’t dog-friendly with others. Because I grew up without a dog and have always wanted one, I was hoping to fulfill that gap with caring for other dogs. I am responsible enough to ensure everything will go smoothly, and have a calm demeanor in case of emergencies. Having always been a dog lover, I can provide you with the service of being rest assured that the relationship between your dog and me will be a reciprocal and enjoyable one! No guarantees of feelings not becoming attached however! If you are looking for an involved, energetic playmate for your dog or simply a caretaker, I can be of generous service to you and your dog.
“Melanie is great! Very professional and always keeps me informed of when she arrives, and of their walk. My dog always looks forward to her arrival and walk :) i would recommend her to anyone.”

About: As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and committed to providing safe, loving care. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, or companionship, I’ll treat your pets like family and follow their routine closely. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to provide consistent care and attention for your pets. I’m happy to work with you to find times that fit your needs. I care for pets as if they were my own.

About: I have had my dog now for almost 10 years. I used to care for my dog as well as a roommates dog at one point. I can give medications and can provide First Aid/Heimlich if needed. Strong enough to hold back and tame my 60 pound Boxer mix. I’ve also helped care/walk my sisters Great Dane and my friends smaller dogs for 7 years or so. I love animals and if you have other little friends who need care, just let me know what to do and I’ll do it. I work night shift as an ICU Nurse so I’m home all day. I can pop in and check on your babies any time during the day. I would need to know in advance only cause I do eventually sleep during the day. I’m aware you are trusting me with one of the most important members of your family, I’ll be happy to leave a photo and an update of any changes , good or bad, so you can enjoy some peace of mind that everything is alright.
About: I've owned and cared for all kinds of animals my whole life. Professionally, I have experience working as a dog handler, kennel attendant, dog bather, and groomer. I also have extensive experience working and caring for cats, horses, and various small animals. My +3 years working at a dog daycare facility had me safely handling a pack of up to 25 dogs; providing exercise & engagement, soft corrections, and positive reinforcement. To do so, it was necessary to be observant and in tune with the dog's behavior and always on the lookout for any signs of stress or aggression. As a bather and groomer, I was focused on hygiene but a large aspect of the job relied on my knowledge of dog behavior and training techniques. I've owned cats my entire life and have worked with a TNR rescue the past few years getting pregnant females and unneutered male cats fixed and adopted. I also have pet care insurance with animal baliee coverage in case of emergencies. I always care for every animal as if they are my own and I understand how important it is for them to feel comfortable and loved. I work part-time on the night shift, so I'm usually out of the house between 9:30pm and 2am Monday through Friday. Outside of that- my schedule is flexible. I am available on most weekends and holidays. I only book one client at a time for pet sits and boarding, so your pet(s) will have my full attention. I live in a quiet suburban neighborhood with a huge, unfenced yard. I own a variety of animal care supplies and equipment.
About: I’ve taken care of my pet dog Bruno since he was a puppy, me and my family adopted him back in 2023 and now he’s turning 3 in May this year. I’m usually free throughout the week and I will always have plenty of time to care for them and for any of their needs! I will always make sure to speak with their owner first if they have any special needs and ask if there are certain instructions written down that will need to be followed regarding of their pets.
About: I have taken a dog behavior training at a local shelter. I have dog sat for family members for multiple days (in house and my home ) Unfortunately I work during the week. I am free Saturday and Sunday to pet sit or just to give your fur baby some love and attention for a couple hours while you’re away. I do not have pets of my own due to housing circumstances. While in a client’s home I ensure that all potentially dangerous items are out of reach and secure from the pets. I give pets their space when showing signs of distress. As well as make sure they have their favorite comfort items.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for 10 years now. I’ve taken care of many dogs from my moms clients dogs, my family dogs, my sisters dog and her friends dogs. This is something that I enjoy doing and I will make sure that I give the care that your dog deserves. To keep them entertained and engage with them. I’m currently working part time. So I have plenty of time on my hands and my schedule is very flexible! I also have a car so I haven’t problem commuting. I have a big fenced yard to keep your fur ball safe and a lot of room for them to run around. I’m very detail oriented so I’ll follow any schedule you give me and keep their dietary needs in mind.

“Sandy & her son PJ are fantastic with my high energy pup, Ace. They are on time & consistent & Ace is completely exhausted upon his return. He seems to really enjoy himself. 🐾. I highly recommend them.”

“I recently adopted a rescue who is having a hard time adjusting to new people. Kathryn did a great job with him! Despite him growling at her she was patient with him and helped him calm down so she could walk him. She was reliable and understanding. I then asked her if she could come again last minute and without hesitation she agreed! I would definitely work with Kathryn again!”

“Tamara is a sweetheart! We were in town for the Stones concert and needed a sitter for the night! She was very nice, prompt and kept us updated. Our Boston, Maggie, loved her and had a great time. Next time we are passing thru town we will definitely contact Tamara. Thanks so much!”

“It was our first time boarding Koda, so we were a little nervous about how he would handle it. Megan made the entire experience incredibly comforting and seamless. She kept us updated throughout the day, responded quickly, and truly put our minds at ease. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would recommend her to anyone.”


“I'm always anxious about leaving my little shadow dog, Jezebel ? in anyone else's care while I'm far away on vacation. But Cary B. and her awesome family took good care of her for me. I'm already making plans for next year's vacation,and will definitely be booking again with Cary B.”

“Data was great at sending pictures and staying in constant communication. Piper probably got more walks there than she does when we are at home! Piper was comfortable and happy the whole time!”

“Guillermina took very good care of my chicle! She sent me photos and videos! I felt very comfortable having her take care of him! Definitely recommendable. 10/10”

“When the car got close to Marissa’s home, Lucy couldn’t wait to get out of the car! It’s comforting to know she’s going to be safe and have fun too. Thank you Marissa!”

“Bridget was amazing with our dog, Miller. Miller has separation anxiety and can be a hit or miss with sitters, but he warmed up to Bridget and her family right away. Great communication and felt extremely comfortable. Would highly recommend to let your dog stay with her family and pup of her own who is both adorable and friendly.”

“Katherine and family is amazing with my pup, Aspen. The communication is great. My pup gets great care, and so much love. It makes going away easy. This last visit, they even gave Aspen a toy to bring home 🥰🥰🥰 Thank you Katherine and family.”

“Jaqueline was super accommodating when my partner and I needed a last minute sitter for our high energy dog. We were worried about her being around other dogs, but she and Casper had zero issues together. Jacqueline sent us photos throughout our 10 day trip and provided updates that really made us feel okay leaving her with someone, especially since she has anxiety issues. She calmed down after only a day or so and felt very comfortable with Jacqueline. We would definitely rebook with her if we need another sitter.”

“Barbara was an amazing sitter! She watched our two dogs for 6 days and kept us updated daily with pictures and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind. This was our first time using Rover, and she made the whole experience easy and stress-free. We were also completely comfortable with her watching other dogs, it gave ours a chance to socialize and play. She even accommodated giving one of our dogs his daily medication, which we really appreciated. Our dogs came home super happy, I honestly think they miss it lol. She was attentive, professional, and very caring. We also appreciated the meet and greet and thoughtful small gift. I highly recommend Barbara and would definitely book with her again!”

“Elisa did a great job with Winston. It is not easy dealing with a high-energy 7-month puppy who is new to boarding and meeting other animals like kittens. She is very attentive, provides prompt pictures/updates, and Winston enjoys her fenced yard and dog.She is on my "speed dial."”

“Heather ended up taking care of Dempsey an extra day after our flight back to Chicago was cancelled. She was quick to respond and helped make a stressful situation a little easier to manage. She took great care of Demps while we were out of town. Thank you!!”
