“This is the second time we have entrusted Peaches to the care of this wonderful family, and we are just as pleased as the first time—Peaches clearly is as well. We are truly grateful to have found them. Their warmth and attentiveness toward Peaches is remarkable. They are the ideal caregivers anyone could find!!”
“Kim is great. She did an amazing job making Jax feel at home, as well as giving me the peace of mind knowing he was being well taken care of. She sent plenty of updates, pictures, and videos throughout his stay. I could tell he was having fun. She even shared some useful training tips that I plan to use. Jax is definitely looking forward to seeing her again.”
“Jacob was exceptional. He took in our 9 week old puppy Stella for a few days and took incredible care of her. From the initial meet and greet through pickup, he asked great questions, adhered to our requested schedule, gave her lots of exercise and snuggles, all while keeping us in the loop with daily status updates via pics and videos. We felt immediate trust and comfort with him and he did not disappoint. Stella will absolutely see him again soon.”
“Megan took wonderful care of my 8‑month‑old golden retriever during his very first 5‑day boarding stay. She kept me updated every day with pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. He was clearly happy, safe, and well cared for. I’m very happy with her service and will definitely recommend her and book with her again.”
“DEE IS AN ANGEL! My mini poodle is an anxious/reactive dog so it’s hard to find people who are willing to watching him and understand his quirky behaviors. From the initial meet and greet, it was obvious how much Dee loves animals and dog sitting. I left my dog with her for 5 nights and couldn’t be happier with how comfortable he was with her. Dee provided multiple daily updates with pictures and videos, and she kept up with his 3 time a day feeding and his daily meds. It’s great to know that there is someone like Dee who will care for my baby like I would. Thank you so much!!!”
“Jennifer was great and we will certainly use her again. She communicates regularly and really loves our dogs. This is the first time we used an app to find someone to take care of our pups. It will not be the last. If I could give more than five stars, I would!”
“We had such a fantastic experience with Sunshine. She took such good care of our dog, Mac. She sent me photos every day and I knew he was well loved and taken care of. I definitely would recommend Sunshine and family ( her kiddos were great with him, too!) to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter. I will assuredly be booking again!”
“Moose is always so excited to go to Kim’s house! The second we pull in to the neighborhood, he knows exactly where he is. I know I can always trust Kim to take good care of Moose during his stay. So glad to have found a reliable and trusted dog sitter!”
“Pepe came home soooo happy! He had a great time with Angela. He can't wait to go back in 3 weeks! This is the first time I've left him that he wasn't upset when he came home. Angela made me feel relieved and not worried about him being ignored or abused. Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”
“I was very anxious about leaving my large elderly bulldog with someone new. Chisato kindly allowed us a meet and greet prior to our reservation to alleviate my concerns and allow my dog a chance to visit her home. During my dog's stay, I received very regular text updates with lots of pictures, video, and descriptions of her day. She took my lazy pup out for many slow walks, and did a wonderful job managing her medications and dietary needs, including a medicated bath. I am extremely happy with the care our dog received, and will absolutely recommend her to our friends and family.”
“My pet had spent the fantastic days in her house because I felt he didn’t want to go back home with me. I appreciated about what I could get good travel due to her care.”
“Tony was great with Archie. He sent photos and videos which I really liked to see. Archie looked like he really enjoyed himself. Would highly recommend Tony. Thanks again for having Archie in your home”
“Fantastic! She provided regular updates and was so helpful. The backyard was a break place for our dog to be. Would totally have her again and have already booked another time!”
“I highly recommend Rusty. Benny stayed with him while I was away, and I couldn’t have been happier with the care he provided. He sent me pictures and updates every day, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. I was especially nervous because Benny has a history of resource guarding, but he handled him very well and everything went smoothly. Benny was well cared for, safe, and happy during his stay. I would def trust him to watch Benny again.”
“Danielle was very communicative and took care of our dogs like they were her own. Highly recommend. Our dogs got all the love and a daily walk which they definitely enjoyed.”
“Norm and Mary watched our golden retriever over the weekend and really made us feel comfortable with his first Rover experience. If we need someone to watch him again they are our first choice! Made the transition from our home to theirs seamless as possible for Kobe. Thanks!”

“Lindsey is amazing! Prompt and communicative, we couldn’t be happier. She was very patient with our very anxious cat and made our trip so much smoother knowing our Moo was in good hands!!! Thank you so much”
“Extremely happy with Christine. This is the first time I've had a drop in visit for my pets in 10 years. Christine reassured me and even came to visit my fur babies before. She brought an ease and I felt complete trust that they were in good hands. I was given many updates every visit and pictures. She was thoughtful and always on time. My pets were very comfortable with her. Which made my trip less stressful. I would definitely recommend Christine and I will happily recommend her and have her back again in the future.”
“Rosanna is a great person to take care of your pets. She takes care of them like they were own. My kitties really liked her. They had playtime and took to her right away. I think they remember her from when she took care of them for the first time almost a year ago. I totally trust her with my cats. My cats really like people so it’s nice to have someone who really likes animals. Rosanna is the best and really loves what she does.”
“Liz took the best care of our two dogs. One of our dogs is a bit nervous and she was great about the needs of each dog with different personalities. It was our first time to be away during the night without the dogs and they were perfectly fine with Liz making several stops throughout the day. We will definitely ask for Liz to care for our dogs in the future. She’s very good about communicating and prompt with all the requested visits. I highly recommend Liz. She is so nice and professional.”
“Hope was great! She took very good care of my cat while I was out of the country for a week. She sent lots of pictures and kept me updated on everything. Will definitely ask her for help again in the future.”
“I have a very high maintenance cat (17, blind, won't eat, etc) and Mackenzie took such good care of her! She checked in twice a day and sent very detailed updates to let me know how Gracie was doing. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing the Gracie was safe and being well cared for by someone that really truly cared about Gracie's wellbeing. I'll definitely be rebooking with Mackenzie!!”
“Teri was an excellent catsitter and really helped put our minds at ease that our cat would be well cared for while we were away. Teri was very commutative and flexible and we appreciated the detailed daily updates about our cat. We would definitely recommended and rebook with her!”
“We love Nancy watching our fur babies! She is very caring and I can’t imagine a better caretaker. We feel extremely comfortable leaving when she has accepted our pet care trip request.”
“Toni is amazing!! She has watched our cats many times for over a year now, and she has been so good with our cats going above and beyond. She always sends pictures and my normally grumpy cat seems to be so comfortable with her. I can’t recommend Toni enough!”
“Swagata took the absolute best care of our two cats (one we’ve had for 15 years and the other for 8). They mean so much to us and we had to be away for three months somewhere we couldn’t have them, which was honestly heartbreaking. I was so nervous we wouldn’t find someone who’d care for them like we do, but I swear she might’ve done an even better job. I think they liked her more than us by the end 😂 She totally got to know their personalities, gave them their favorite toys, helped with their sensitive stomachs, and genuinely loved them. She sent us photos all the time and I never once worried. Her house is basically cat heaven and she’s 100% the cat whisperer. If I could give her 100 stars I would because 5 doesn’t even come close. If my cats ever need to stay somewhere again, it’ll only be with Swagata. Thank you so much Swagata!! ❤️”
“Great cat-sitting and more! Not only did our two cats take to Jessica quickly, but when a storm moved through and a branch fell on our house she notified us immediately with pictures. Excellent work.”

“Fantastic host and sitter for my pup Indy! I would recommend for anyone in Waukegan. I was in town for my brother’s Navy boot camp graduation, and needed a sitter for the day. Byron answered promptly, and sent regular updates through out the day. I really appreciated the photo updates, and put my mind at ease so I could enjoy the day. Again, would totally recommend!”

It’s a pleasure for me to spend time with animals! I will focus on the individual and distinct needs of each animal. I firmly believe that every pet is unique and deserves personalized care. By adhering to the specific requirements set by owners, I aim to ensure that each pet feels exceptional and cared for, making their experience wonderful
“Kim is patient and loving and Frankie enjoyed his long walk and time playing in the large fenced in yard. We are so happy that we found Kim to watch our puppy when we have family outings. Thank you so much!”
“Cassandra is awesome. We are visiting and had no idea what to do with Gordo since we were afraid to leave him in the hotel alone and wanted to make a cubs game. We contacted on short notice but Cassandra responded quickly and took great care of our fur baby.”
“Thank you Dee for wonderful care you provided to Nikita while we were gone. I felt confident and calm that you would take great care of her! I would love to keep in touch and use your services in the future. I also highly recommend your services to others, especially to highly worrisome and demanding pet owners:)))”
“Wonderful with my boy! Accomodating and I loved receiving photos and updates during the day. My pup is now happily snoozing away his exciting fun day! Very pleased! Will use again!”
“My anxious dog was at ease with Chisato. She sent pics and videos of Ralphie throughout the day. She was flexible about scheduling and provided updates about his stay. Will definitely return to Chisato! Highly recommend!”
“Heather took such great care of my girls! She responded quickly, sent lots of updates and the pups were good and tired when I picked them up. I will definitely be getting in touch with her next time I stay in Kenosha!”

“Swagata was absolutely amazing in accommodating a last-minute request. I reached out to her late at night due to an urgent appointment the following morning, and she graciously accepted without hesitation. I already knew Tommy was in good hands since he had a great experience with her previously. Throughout the time, Swagata kept me updated with pictures and messages, which gave me complete peace of mind. Her warmth and attentiveness truly show how much she cares for pets. Tommy was happy and relaxed, and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable and loving pet care. I’ll definitely be revisiting!”
“Sunshine and family were so awesome! We have a senior dog who's a little particular and she made him really comfortable. We got lots of cute update pics and pickup and drop-off were smooth & easy. We are from out of state and couldn't meet ahead of time so we really appreciated the warmth and care that Sunshine showed to us and our pup.”
“First time leaving our dog with a sitter. Whole family was a little apprehensive, since we didn't know what to expect with how our dog would behave. Florence kept us updated with text, pictures and videos. We felt at ease to see that our baby looked comfortable, behaving and getting along well with Florence's dog. We were also glad to see that she was safe and happy. Thank you Florence for taking great care of CC!”
About: I got my first dog (fox terrier) at 10 and was primarily responsible for his needs until I went to college. He lived to be 11 and I loved those 10 years with him so much. During high school and college until COVID started, I pet sit several dogs and a few cats. Then I adopted a retired racing greyhound when COVID started and adopted a rescue great dane in fall 2023. I would describe myself as consistent, adaptable, respectful, confident, observant, and caring. I am very understanding to the fact that every dog has different needs and that every owner has their own rules/training styles. I am an experienced dog handler. When I adopted the rescue great dane, he was completely untrained with very dangerous and challenging behaviors. I worked with 3 different trainers, took him to a group obedience class, and researched as much as I could to train him to be the good dog I knew he could be. After almost a year of rigorous training, he has been able to become an amazing well behaved dog. I am completely open to taking care of any breed, size, age, and personality. I will not shy away from or turn down taking care of the "difficult" dogs, or puppies, or senior dogs with many medical requirements. All dogs are great and deserve great care while their human is away! Last Updated: 7/9/2025 ***I live in a neighborhood off of Route 45 and Sterns School*** WALKS AND DROP-INS - Reoccurring bookings: Mon-Wed/Fri-Sun 11:30 a.m.-7:00 p.m.; Thu 1:00-7:00 p.m. - One-time bookings: Can be outside of the above times if needed, but confirm with me first. ***A DISCOUNTED WALK RATE IS AVAILABLE DURING ALL BOARDING, HOUSE SITTING, AND DAYCARE BOOKINGS*** - 30 min walk per day = $10 (usually $20) - 15 min walk per day = $5 HOUSE SITTING: I am available to stay with your pet in your home any night and day of the week almost 24/7. I have a few re-occurring weekly dog walks so I would need to be gone for a few hours midday usually. BOARDING: Your dog can stay overnight at my house any day of the week, provided that they are a small breed, well-behaved, and okay with large dogs.* DAYCARE: Your dog can stay at my house any day of the week provided that they are a small breed, well-behaved, and okay with large dogs.* - Re-occurring bookings: preferred drop off is 9 a.m. or later, pick up anytime is fine - One-time bookings: drop off can be earlier than 9 a.m. if needed, just confirm with me first, pick up anytime is fine --- *My greyhound is 9 y.o., 70 lb. and my great dane is 4 y.o., 140 lb. My great dane LOVES small, well-behaved dogs, but still struggles a bit with medium/large dogs. I am working to resolve this and will be able to accommodate those sizes for boarding/daycare in the future! ^If I house sit for you and you have a medium/large dog that cannot be left alone or does not like other dogs, I can still bring them to my house and crate my dogs in the other room! I will always uphold any rules/training style you have for me and your dog no matter what service I am providing. I am receptive to feedback and will always keep you informed about how my time is going with your dog and will always ask questions in order to take the best care of your dog. HOUSE SITTING: I am okay with multidog homes. I will leave your house the way you had it when you leave and I can get your mail/packages/put your trash cans out and back in as well. I can take care of other animals you have as well while you are gone. BOARDING/DAYCARE: Safety and peace of mind is of utmost importance for me. Since I have 2 large dogs already, I can only take one dog at a time. (Caveats: If an emergency, I could take a second dog; if you have two well-behaved small dogs, that might be okay too - just ask me). The greyhound is very chill and is great with any well-behaved dog. The great dane is fine with well-behaved small dogs. I will always take it slow on leash when introducing the dogs to each other and then they will always be supervised when together. Only other pets I have are fish. I have no kids. I keep the house very clean and doors to rooms/bathrooms closed so no way of getting in to things they shouldn't! I have a decently sized fenced backyard. There is a few feet of the fence that is higher off the ground so if I can keep small dogs on leash when they go out. I can also take them out by themself if necessary. I live in a 4 bedroom house with a basement so plenty of room in case the dogs need a break from each other or need to play separately from each other. Additionally, the great dane is extremely well crate trained and has an upstairs and downstairs crate that can be utilized. If I had to leave for some reason while your dog is staying at my house (which I rarely do, all dogs would be separated (by crate or being in a different room). You can bring their crate and/or I have an extra crate as well. All dogs can sleep in the bedroom but not on the bed!
“Jordan is an excellent dog sitter! She is very responsible and took care of our 4 month old Cavapoo like he was her own. Her house is very neat and clean and her yard is big. Churro got along so well with her 4 year old dog, Benji. We highly recommend Jordan and look forward to Churro staying with her when we are on vacation soon!”
About: I grew up with a dog and loved him very much. He passed away, and the family has not yet gotten another, but I miss caring for a dog. I love all dogs and cats of any size and any animal, for that matter. I am incredibly attentive to animals and always love giving them care, even when they are not mine. I am almost always home and able to pet sit through the day and overnight. I am currently in college, but taking classes online, so I am constantly available to tend to your pet's needs. I am a very active person who can take your pet on walks or runs more than once each day if need be. If your pet enjoys resting, I will also do it with them as I complete work on my computer and will pay close attention to them or snuggle with them if it's what they like. I will care for each pet depending on their specific needs, whether they need to have walks, use the bathroom often, or receive personal care. My home is very safe for pets, as it was already set up for a dog in the past with carpeted stairs and a yard to play in. The yard has a fence around part of it, but it is still open, so if I take your pet outside to play, I will use a leash and keep them in the yard safely separated from any danger. The only other person living in the home will be my mother, who is also an animal lover, but is generally at work during weekdays.
“Jax absolutely loves Thanit. He is so excited to see her. When I drop him off he runs right in the house - never looking back to acknowledge that I’m leaving or say goodbye. During his stays, Thanit sends pictures and videos showing Jax in action - playing with toys, taking walks through the neighborhood, running around the backyard with her husband, and snuggling on the couch with her. Jax has truly found his 2nd home. And I’ve found peace of mind knowing he is with someone that loves and cares about him. We will be booking daycare with her again. I highly recommend Thanit - your dog will thank you.”
About: I have had dogs all my life (and cats occasionally!) They need us so much - they are innocent souls like our children that depend on care & love. I work from home so I'm available at all times with great opportunity to hold/care and insure they are feeling calm & secure, well fed, and welcome at all times. I have had my own dogs/cats for 40 years. My dog, Julia, is 2 yrs. old and extremely well trained in all aspects. I live in an apartment that is 50 feet from a back open area of trees & ponds. I also have a fenced dog play area for those who are not accustomed to being leashed and need to run. I currently work from home so I may provide constant oversight & care. My dog, Julia, is extremely friendly without any aggressive behaviors. I can crate your pet should you feel that's required per your specifications. I live in a clean & welcoming apartment with my Pomeranian, Julia. We have a dog park/run/free roam area that I use constantly. In many cases, I feel it's important to bond with your pet by spending personal attention to them upon arrival. Giving a soothing voice, providing calming energy, toys, bones, & cleanliness is incredibly important for their care.
“Amazing! I had no worries all day about my dog as I was sent many videos and also text messages of updates for him! 10/10 would very much recommend! Thank you so much again!!!”

About: What sets me apart is my patience, reliability, and genuine love for dogs. I understand that every pet has unique needs, so I adapt my care to their personality and routine. Whether it’s an energetic puppy needing extra playtime, a senior dog requiring gentle attention, or a shy pet that needs patience to build trust, I’m committed to providing safe, compassionate, and dependable care. My goal is to make every dog feel comfortable, happy, and loved while giving owners complete peace of mind. I work Monday through Friday from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM, so I’m available for morning walks before work, evening visits, and overnight pet care during the week. I’m also available most weekends, which allows me to spend extra time with pets for walks, drop-in visits, or extended care. I always make sure each pet gets the attention, exercise, and care they need. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully to ensure each pet stays comfortable and maintains their normal routine. I respect feeding schedules, exercise needs, medications (if required), and any special care instructions. Whether I’m caring for a pet in my home or in the owner’s home, I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment while giving each pet the time, attention, and affection they deserve. My priority is making every pet feel secure, happy, and well cared for.
“Excellent communication and lighting fast response times when using the app. Most importantly, Ava took great care of our Nala and was very respectful of our home. Will definitely rebook with Ava for the summer.”

“Gwendolyn went above and beyond to help us in a bind with our best boy! She gave him a good walk, refilled his bowl with fresh water and even gave him some snackies to hold him over until we got home. On top of that she spent time after the walk to love on him for a while! 10/10 and will be using her again!!”
About: I’ve worked hands-on with animals for over 12 years through shelters, rescue organizations, fostering, and TNR work. I’ve cared for everything from neonatal kittens to senior and special-needs animals, including medication administration and post-op recovery care. I’m calm, reliable, and experienced with animals that may be nervous, shy, energetic, or need extra patience. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. With my current work schedule, I’m available early mornings (5–6 AM) before work, again around noon, and throughout the evening. I make pets a top priority and can also provide late-evening check-ins to help pets settle in comfortably for the night. Based on your pet’s normal routine and comfort level, I can accommodate leash walks, supervised backyard time, or longer walks and exercise as needed.
“Toni is not only extremely professional and experienced with dogs but she gave my pup so much love and had no problem with personalized care (specific feeding routine, walking a strong dog, 6+ pictures per walk, written daily reports). Toni was so communicative and I was never worried about my dog despite being out of the country and needing last minute edits to my booking! I am picky about who I trust with my dog since she’s a large adult rescue dog but I’d confidently recommend any dog owner to use Toni’s services! Your dog will thank you for it !! ??”
About: As a lifelong dog lover, I’ve had the joy of raising two dogs from puppies, giving me firsthand experience with everything from potty training and basic training to the high energy and patience that young dogs require. I have been dog sitting for friends & family in Michigan & Illinois for 3 years now. In my professional life, I’m an Occupational Therapist who works with older adults. I regularly help residents safely care for and enjoy time with their beloved pets, so I’m experienced in recognizing changes in behavior, adapting to individual needs, and providing calm, attentive care. I’m also comfortable with senior dogs who may need a slower pace. Because I’m young and active, I love getting outside for walks, playtime, and adventures that help energetic dogs stay happy and engaged. Whether your pup wants a long walk, a game of fetch, or just lots of cuddles and companionship, I’ll tailor my care to their personality and routine. My goal is to treat every dog as if they were my own, so you can feel confident they’re safe, loved, and having a great time while you’re away! I work a normal 9-5 Monday-Friday. Therefore I prefer to do Friday afternoon-Sunday evening stays! This way I am available 24/7 for the pet. I have a fenced in yard (that is also dig proof). I currently have one very friendly dog who would be eager to any pups companion. My dog is allowed on furniture/in beds. We have a lot of sidewalks & trails within our neighborhood for walks. I have multiple security cameras.

Plenty of playtime and mental stimulation. I love using puzzle toys, snuffles and other things to get a dogs mind working!

“Keira was such a blessing for us! She walked our dog Bernard and was so easy to communicate with! She posted pictures of what he did on the walk and he loved her right away! I would definitely recommend Keira!”
About: I've been volunteering at pet shelters since I was 15. I'm a retired military veteran who just loves dogs. When taking care of your dog I can take them out on runs or on long walks depending on your request. If your dog prefers to cuddle on the couch that could easily be arranged too! Growing up I had three dogs and know how they are important members of the family. They hold a special place in our hearts and I will give them the utmost respect, love and care while taking care of them. I will do my very best to make sure your fur baby is well taken care of, so well that they will be barking to have me come back! Also if you choose me to dog sit expect lots of dog pictures! I love doing photoshoots! I'm going to school part time so I have a very flexible schedule when it comes to drop in visits or walking! For home stays please let me know early in advance! With walks I'm aware and will physically check the temperatures of sidewalks to ensure the safety of your dog's paws. I'm also always on the lookout for broken glass or trash that might cut their paws. If requested I also don't mind taking dogs to local trails for a nature walk!
“Isabella is the only person I would trust with my fur baby! You can tell she genuinely cares about animals and is so kind and helpful! My pup tends to be on wild side and has really poor leash manners. She is so patient with him and teaches him to walk nicely. I could not recommend her enough! Such an amazing person!”
About: I have all kinds of experience with all different animals! Dogs, cats, rats, lizards, hedgehogs you name it. I love ‘em all!! I have been dog walking since January 2022. I am currently working part time. So I have lot of free time during the evenings and weekends! Taking care of animals is always top priority to me! I promise to always put your fur baby first when he/she is in my care! Safety is a top priority to me and I’ll always make sure to keep a close eye on your pet. After all…they aren’t just just a pet…they are our family members!
“I couldn’t have asked for a better person to walk through the door… Kind caring compassionate. The dogs love her she treats them with such tender loving care… I had hesitated to do this and now I think it’s the best decision I’ve made regarding the dogs in a long time — I need the help. Jessica is great at what she does. She takes it very seriously she worked her tail off no pun intended she’s flexible and we love her!”

“This is the second time we have entrusted Peaches to the care of this wonderful family, and we are just as pleased as the first time—Peaches clearly is as well. We are truly grateful to have found them. Their warmth and attentiveness toward Peaches is remarkable. They are the ideal caregivers anyone could find!!”
“Megan took wonderful care of my 8‑month‑old golden retriever during his very first 5‑day boarding stay. She kept me updated every day with pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. He was clearly happy, safe, and well cared for. I’m very happy with her service and will definitely recommend her and book with her again.”
“DEE IS AN ANGEL! My mini poodle is an anxious/reactive dog so it’s hard to find people who are willing to watching him and understand his quirky behaviors. From the initial meet and greet, it was obvious how much Dee loves animals and dog sitting. I left my dog with her for 5 nights and couldn’t be happier with how comfortable he was with her. Dee provided multiple daily updates with pictures and videos, and she kept up with his 3 time a day feeding and his daily meds. It’s great to know that there is someone like Dee who will care for my baby like I would. Thank you so much!!!”
“Jennifer was great and we will certainly use her again. She communicates regularly and really loves our dogs. This is the first time we used an app to find someone to take care of our pups. It will not be the last. If I could give more than five stars, I would!”
“We had such a fantastic experience with Sunshine. She took such good care of our dog, Mac. She sent me photos every day and I knew he was well loved and taken care of. I definitely would recommend Sunshine and family ( her kiddos were great with him, too!) to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter. I will assuredly be booking again!”
“Moose is always so excited to go to Kim’s house! The second we pull in to the neighborhood, he knows exactly where he is. I know I can always trust Kim to take good care of Moose during his stay. So glad to have found a reliable and trusted dog sitter!”
“Pepe came home soooo happy! He had a great time with Angela. He can't wait to go back in 3 weeks! This is the first time I've left him that he wasn't upset when he came home. Angela made me feel relieved and not worried about him being ignored or abused. Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”
“I was very anxious about leaving my large elderly bulldog with someone new. Chisato kindly allowed us a meet and greet prior to our reservation to alleviate my concerns and allow my dog a chance to visit her home. During my dog's stay, I received very regular text updates with lots of pictures, video, and descriptions of her day. She took my lazy pup out for many slow walks, and did a wonderful job managing her medications and dietary needs, including a medicated bath. I am extremely happy with the care our dog received, and will absolutely recommend her to our friends and family.”
“Tony was great with Archie. He sent photos and videos which I really liked to see. Archie looked like he really enjoyed himself. Would highly recommend Tony. Thanks again for having Archie in your home”
“Fantastic! She provided regular updates and was so helpful. The backyard was a break place for our dog to be. Would totally have her again and have already booked another time!”
“I highly recommend Rusty. Benny stayed with him while I was away, and I couldn’t have been happier with the care he provided. He sent me pictures and updates every day, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. I was especially nervous because Benny has a history of resource guarding, but he handled him very well and everything went smoothly. Benny was well cared for, safe, and happy during his stay. I would def trust him to watch Benny again.”
“Norm and Mary watched our golden retriever over the weekend and really made us feel comfortable with his first Rover experience. If we need someone to watch him again they are our first choice! Made the transition from our home to theirs seamless as possible for Kobe. Thanks!”
“Rachel was absolutely wonderful with Dottie. Being new to the area and having to travel for business, I was very nervous finding a new sitter as Dottie has some extra needs in her older age. I appreciate Rachel’s updates and willingness to help in a time of need. Thanks again, Rachel!”
About: As a lifelong dog lover, I’ve had the joy of raising two dogs from puppies, giving me firsthand experience with everything from potty training and basic training to the high energy and patience that young dogs require. I have been dog sitting for friends & family in Michigan & Illinois for 3 years now. In my professional life, I’m an Occupational Therapist who works with older adults. I regularly help residents safely care for and enjoy time with their beloved pets, so I’m experienced in recognizing changes in behavior, adapting to individual needs, and providing calm, attentive care. I’m also comfortable with senior dogs who may need a slower pace. Because I’m young and active, I love getting outside for walks, playtime, and adventures that help energetic dogs stay happy and engaged. Whether your pup wants a long walk, a game of fetch, or just lots of cuddles and companionship, I’ll tailor my care to their personality and routine. My goal is to treat every dog as if they were my own, so you can feel confident they’re safe, loved, and having a great time while you’re away! I work a normal 9-5 Monday-Friday. Therefore I prefer to do Friday afternoon-Sunday evening stays! This way I am available 24/7 for the pet. I have a fenced in yard (that is also dig proof). I currently have one very friendly dog who would be eager to any pups companion. My dog is allowed on furniture/in beds. We have a lot of sidewalks & trails within our neighborhood for walks. I have multiple security cameras.
“Kelsey treated our Pug Millie with so much care and attention daily. Sent photos of their daily adventures together and pampered her with cozy blanket laden sofa resting after her long walks. Amazing care”
“We only needed to book one night with Christy, but she still sent an update with a pic...and took our Temo for a little car ride! We appreciated her flexibility with drop-off/pick-up. We would recommend her, and would utilize her services again.”
“Thank you Elaina and Joseph for allowing me to book with a short notice and for being very flexible with dropoff and pickup times. Communication was excellent, constant updates and pictures, and great care. You'll definitely be my sitter of choice when I'm in the area. Thank you!!”
