“Paola was the BEST, hands down!! 🥰 She was so accommodating with my Gracie the entire weekend, and she was even able to do overnights for me at the last minute. Her flexibility was absolutely amazing! 🙌🏽 I’m VERY picky about who I leave Gracie with because she has really bad separation anxiety, and it’s not easy for me to trust just anyone with her. So please believe me when I say Paola is REALLY good at what she does! ❤️ She kept my Gracie happy, comfortable, and content the entire weekend, and that means EVERYTHING to me. 🥹🐾 I honestly couldn’t thank her enough for taking such great care of my baby! If you’re ever in the Elgin area and need a dog sitter, I HIGHLY recommend Paola! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ You will not be disappointed! 🤗🐶💕”

I highly recommend crissy care 5 stars ⭐️”

“Kendra is great and an absolute life saver. I experienced a leak in my apartment in the middle of the night and was told that I must evacuate for the next day. I hit Kendra up about 12-1am about services for that day and she replied by 6am the next morning! She was great with my cat, Cheeks. She has a beautiful home that I felt comfortable leaving my cat with her. She’s kind, prompt with responses, and even sent pictures of my pet throughout the day. I would recommend her services and I will be using her again!”

“Marissa was excellent with our two kittens! She was able to meet us beforehand to get the key, to meet the kittens, and to learn about their needs. The kittens seemed to warm up to her quickly. She played with them and a highlight of the vacation I was on (hence the need for a pet sitter) was the photos and the detailed updates that Marissa would send! She was fantastic and I HIGHLY RECOMMEND using her for all your pet needs!”


About: I’m different from other cat sitters because I don’t just “check in” on cats—I take the time to truly care for them. I understand that every cat has their own personality, routines, and boundaries, and I respect all of it. Whether your cat is playful, shy, anxious, or a total diva, I move at their pace and make sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I pay close attention to behavior, appetite, and litter habits, give genuine affection (when welcomed), and always prioritize a calm, clean environment. To me, cat sitting isn’t just a job—it’s building trust with your cat and peace of mind for you. 🐾

About: I've had dogs my entire life and started dog sitting at a young age. I currently have 2 dogs and would gladly welcome your pet into the mix. I feel that dogs truly are our best friends so you can rest assured they will be well taken care of when they're with me.

About: We have over 40 years of experience. We've had dogs our whole lives growing up. We have an eight -year-old 10 pound male Yorky & a two-year-old 90 pound male Bernese Mountain dog, both very loving. We have a big backyard with a fence. 2 1/2 acres of woods with trails to play in & for fun walks. My 4 kids even love dogs! Our dogs are like our kids. Every pet we had has a special place in our hearts. I am partly remote worker. My husband is home most of the day. We have no problem with scheduling. We only require 24 hours notice. We have a big kitchen, living room and dining room open space. We have a big backyard. The backyard is completely fenced in. We have a big double kennel dog crate depending on the dogs preference how to sleep. We like to keep the doggie’s uncaged & happy as much as possible..
About: I currently have 4 husky pups that are very well socialized and would love more friends to play with. I also work with rescue groups to help pups in need. I have never met a pup I didn’t love! I currently work from home. Your pet will hardly be in a create and will be treated just like one of mine. Many potty breaks throughout the day. I often get on the floor and play so they know I am part of the pack. Toys? Well let’s just say there is not a shortage of toys in the house. Every room we visit has a “toy box”. Treats? No shortage of those here either but, I like to make them earn them - like enforcing commands they already know and rewarding them for going potty. I have almost a half acre with a fully fenced in back yard. Your pet will go out multiple times a day. I also foster and rescue pups so I am very good with socializing new pups with mine. They have previously lived with smaller pups such as a Jack Russell and Yorkie and they loved them to pieces. They also attend “daycare” and “overnight camp” in order to keep them socialized. I also feel like meet and greets are important to ensure your pup(s) interact well with mine. Safety is my number one concern. As I have stated mine are well socialized and I want nothing more to help others socialize theirs as well. Safety is a top priority in my home. I do accept puppies you well you just need to message me separately is we can discuss. My yard is fully fenced in and almost a 1/2 acre. I stop my work day to play fetch it for them for about an hour.

“First time dog parent. First time Rover app user. So glad Monty & I connected with Raquel. From first point of contact, meet and greet, day one and day two of doggy care was absolutely amazing. Raquel is a genuine, authentic, dog care provider. Communication ✅. Care Expectations Met ✅. Very Responsive✅. Professional✅. Personable✅. She’s passionate about caring for dogs and it is shown through her attentiveness to the well-being of dogs while under her care. Raquel’s sitter etiquette is superb. To see her love on Monty at drop-off and pick up gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was being left in good hands. To make things even better she shared updates via pics and videos throughout the day on each doggy daycare visit. Hands down, we’ll be re-booking Raquel. #RaquelROCKS ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

The dogs were comfortable with her and enjoyed relaxing in her comfy air conditioned home on a hot day. She sent photos and sent them home with cute report pages about their adventures.”

“Daisy was amazing! I booked her last minute and she was kind enough to squeeze Snoopy in for the day. She kept me updated throughout, which I really appreciated. Snoopy came home happy, worn out, and ready for a nap, so I know he had a great time! I’ll definitely be rebooking with her.”

About: Hi! My name is Morgan, and I’ve been around animals my entire life. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages and understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Whether it’s feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, basic care, or simply keeping them company, I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I’m dependable, attentive, and committed to following your pet’s routine so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. Pet care is naturally set into my daily and weekly routine. I schedule my day around feeding times, walks, play time, and check-ins to ensure every pet gets consistent care. Mornings and evenings are dedicated to exercise, enrichment, and cuddles, while afternoons include potty breaks, supervision, and rest time. My schedule is flexible and intentionally designed so I can give every animal the attention, and time they deserve. When pets stay in my home, I create a safe, supervised, and comforting environment set to their needs. I maintain clean spaces, provide cozy rest areas, and offer play time. I follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, medications, and preferred activities, so their stay feels familiar and stress-free.

I handle feeding, walks, bathroom breaks, medication, playtime, and any specific instructions exactly as provided. I also respect the home environment by keeping everything tidy and secure. Whether in my home or yours, I focus on communication, safety, and reliable, compassionate care that helps pets feel calm, comfortable, and understood.
About: I have been a pet owner all of my life and there is a special joy and comfort that only a dog or cat can give us!

It's a great way for your dog to release that playful energy while strengthening their health as well. Playtime is also important in keeping our pets happy and friendly! Getting out and throwing balls, frisbees, sticks, etc is one of my favorite things to do with my own dogs and it's another great form of exercise for your pup! All animals are precious and deserve all the love and care that they can get and I consider it a privilege for me to help you provide that for your furry family member!!

About: Currently an ICU emergency veterinary technician with several years of experience in general practice veterinary medicine. Since age 4 I've had an animal in my home. I've brought home so many of our family pets over the years basically off of the streets. I cared for them faithfully and lovingly until they crossed that rainbow bridge. Animals are naturally drawn to me and I have several tips and tricks to get your fur baby comfortable and content by the end of our visit. Pet care is part of my everyday routine. Every morning I wake up between 5 and 6 every day and begin feeding and caring for my pets at home. I feed and water 2-3 times daily. I do walks and play time and of course cuddles and pets. I will treat them as if they were my own fur babies, with love and compassion.
About: I’ve had several pets growing up so I have years of experience playing and taking care of dogs and cats. I love going to the beach, park, or hiking so I can take the dogs with me on any adventures. I am currently working part time. I am available on most weekends to spend time taking care of the pets. I am pretty active so if the dog is high energy, I can take him/her out on a long walk/run. Currently, I live in an apartment with one dog. I can provide both at home or at clients home services as long as all house rules are given to me before hand.
About: 🌱Since a little girl all the way up to now I have been surrounded by animals. I have experience in caring for both cats and dogs alike as I have fur babies myself; 3 cats and a Pharaoh Hound. 🌱 🌿I will gladly follow special care instructions and supervision advisories as needed to ensure your pet is comfortable in their own home.🌿 ✨Have an Exotic/ “Unconventional” pet? I’ll care for them too! 🐠🦜🐁🐍🦎( this excludes Insect pets.)✨ All I ask is that if I am to pet sit to please allow me to bring my dog if it is overnight stay. I am typically available full-time on the weekends only as I have all day off on those days. Weekdays I am available after 5pm. After I get off of work I typically care for my own pets before relaxing myself. I like to follow instructions provided by the owner. I typically prefer to give pets their respective space unless they show to be needy with affection or hyperactive and need an outlet for their energy via playtime!

About: I have hands-on experience caring for multiple dogs of different breeds, sizes, and energy levels. I currently have an almost 3-year-old German Shorthaired Pointer, a German Shepherd, and a rescue pit bull, so I’m very comfortable handling active, strong, and high-energy dogs. In addition to my own dogs, I’ve cared for friends’ dogs and cats many times, including feeding, walking, playtime, and making sure they feel comfortable while their owners are away. I understand how important it is to keep our pets on their routine and give them attention, patience, and a safe environment. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I am available in the mornings before work, during my lunch break, and after work in the evenings, which allows me to provide consistent drop-in visits, walks, feeding, and playtime. I also have more flexibility on weekends, which gives me the ability to take on longer visits or additional care if needed. I’m able to stay organized and reliable with my schedule, making sure each pet gets dependable attention and care throughout the day. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medication if needed, and any specific care preferences the owner provides. I make sure each pet gets attention, playtime, and comfort so they feel safe while their owner is away. I also keep the home clean and respected, making sure everything is left as I found it. I give regular updates so clients know how their pets are doing and can feel confident they are being well cared for.

Your pet is the best judge of character you need! As a stay at home mom, I have a good amount of availability and flexibility to provide all the care that your pets need! I am very easy going and happy to accommodate. Besides the necessities like food, water and time outside, I believe it is equally important to provide all pets with plenty of attention, playtime, socialization, exercise, walks & love!

“My first experience was amazing! Adrienne ensured my little one was safe and cared for. She walked me through the process with so much patience. A bonus…she is an amazing pet photographer!”

“Brenda did so well with my girls, following all my feeding instructions and playing with them outside! The girls had so much fun! She also sent lots of picture and video updates, so that was appreciated as well!!”

“Another great experience with Jessica during the holidays. She was very patient and kind with Bagheera while she got reacquainted with the surroundings. I will book Jessica without hesitation when I am out of town again.”

“The absolute best family! They made sure Rockie was well taken care of & treated her as their own. I can tell Rockie enjoyed her stay & fell in love with her new friends! I was so nervous with this being my first time booking & she is my baby lol, but Ximena & Travis kept me updated and sent pictures throughout her stay.”

“Kayla was so sweet and attentive to my 10 yr old shih tzu Taco. He had recently injured his leg and was awaiting a surgical consult. So, she was careful with his activity level. She also gave his seizure medication 3 times a day. He looked happy and well cared for in all the photo updates she sent me.”

“This was the first time our 2 labs stayed with Elaine. They appeared to have had a good stay and adjusted to the freedom of a dog door and a large fenced back yard to play in. She sent pictures and occasional updates.”

“Our two bulldogs had a wonderful stay with Matthew and his family. We received excellent communication, daily photos and knew are pups were being treated with attentive care including lots of walks and play time. We would definitely use Matthew again for pet-sitting services. Thank you so much!”

“They were great! They were flexible when I ran a little late at drop off and a little early at pickup. Daisy had lots of outdoor play time and I appreciated the multiple pictures and video they sent me.”

“Victoria was great with communication and watching Stella. She always sent pictures and videos to let us know how our girl was doing. She even went out of her way to send home some treats for Thanksgiving.”

“If you're looking for a sitter for your pet, you won't find any better than Leigh. She takes really good care of my dog every time. My pup is always happy to stay with Leigh and sad to leave. He loves the playtime with the other dogs. Something he cant get at home.”

“Paola was the BEST, hands down!! 🥰 She was so accommodating with my Gracie the entire weekend, and she was even able to do overnights for me at the last minute. Her flexibility was absolutely amazing! 🙌🏽 I’m VERY picky about who I leave Gracie with because she has really bad separation anxiety, and it’s not easy for me to trust just anyone with her. So please believe me when I say Paola is REALLY good at what she does! ❤️ She kept my Gracie happy, comfortable, and content the entire weekend, and that means EVERYTHING to me. 🥹🐾 I honestly couldn’t thank her enough for taking such great care of my baby! If you’re ever in the Elgin area and need a dog sitter, I HIGHLY recommend Paola! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ You will not be disappointed! 🤗🐶💕”

“First time ever using Chrissy for my 5 month pup she was wonderful sending pictures and updates on how my dog was doing . I loved that she was treated like a family pet allowed to not be crate all day , she was able to jump on couch and feel like home , play outside and join the other dogs for playtime . I highly recommend crissy care 5 stars ⭐️”

“Kendra is great and an absolute life saver. I experienced a leak in my apartment in the middle of the night and was told that I must evacuate for the next day. I hit Kendra up about 12-1am about services for that day and she replied by 6am the next morning! She was great with my cat, Cheeks. She has a beautiful home that I felt comfortable leaving my cat with her. She’s kind, prompt with responses, and even sent pictures of my pet throughout the day. I would recommend her services and I will be using her again!”

“Jennifer was so great and prompt when booking. Our pup had an AMAZING time with her and her dogs. Plenty of cuddles and playtime indoor and outdoor. We absolutely enjoyed the updates, pictures, and videos from Jennifer! (We even got a holiday themed picture of our sweet pup!) We will certainly utilize her for all of our dogs needs going forward!”

About: I’ve had dogs as pets all of my life! Big dogs, small dogs aged from 6wks -11years old! Dogs are more than just a pet to me, they are family! I’m currently working full time from 8:30 am - 5 pm! I am available weekends and during the week operating around my work schedule! I also have a 4 year old son! I have a fenced in yard and 4 dogs who love to play! I can crate if needed inside the home! Your pets are allowed to stay inside!
“Such amazing communication! Kaylee showed so much love to Moose during his stay with her. She was so accommodating and really went above and beyond! It was so nice to know that Moose was in good hands for the time I couldn't have him with me.”

About: What sets me apart is the deep, lifelong connection I’ve had with dogs. I’ve personally raised three pups from just six weeks old all the way through their senior years. Each one grew into a loving, obedient, and well-mannered companion, and I’ve been through every stage of life with them—from puppy energy to senior snuggles. That experience has given me a strong understanding of how to care for dogs at any age, whether it’s gentle patience with a new pup or extra comfort and support for older dogs. This is a truly dog-friendly home where your pet will feel like family. I have three kind and respectful kids who absolutely adore dogs and are always excited to welcome new furry friends into our home. Whether your pup loves to play, nap, or just follow someone around all day, there’s a warm spot (and probably a willing lap) waiting for them here. I don’t just watch dogs—I care for them as if they were my own. 🐾 Hi! I’m a school social worker with the Charlotte-Mecklenburg School District, and caring for others—whether it’s students or furry friends—has always been second nature to me. I’ve had a dog in my life since I was a teenager, and I truly believe dogs are one of the most perfect, loving animals on this earth. 💛 Over the years, I’ve trained dogs to go potty outside, sit, stay, lay down, heel on walks, and even speak when it’s treat time (a favorite trick in our house!). I’ve also raised multiple dogs from puppyhood through their senior years, so I’m comfortable with dogs at all life stages and energy levels. This is a dog-loving home, through and through. I have three kids who are gentle, kind, and absolutely adore dogs. There’s always a cozy corner, a warm cuddle, and plenty of love waiting for your pup here. Whether they want to play, nap, go on walks, or just soak up some attention, your dog will be treated like one of the family I do not have a fence in yard but it is partially fenced in. I do have a dog lead and I will always be outside
“Rolo was so spoilt with this wonderful family! We had so many photos of him doing fun things, and they managed to help him eat, which he doesn’t normally do when he is in a new place. Would highly recommend. I was able to enjoy my vacation because he was well cared for, so THANK YOU 🤩”
