House Sitting in Villa Park

“Jax is a wonderful dog sitter. Not only is she great with dogs and a joy to talk to, but she is also very prompt and flexible, a great communicator and remembers every request or instruction. I would highly recommend her to take care of any pets.”

“CASEY SAVED OUR VACATION!!!! I don’t know where to start. Casey and her partner were SO amazing to our dog Neo. He got pretty sick the day before we left for Mexico and we were so nervous to leave him. Casey took better care of him than we could have dreamed of!! He had very bad diarrhea and she had to take him out several times a night for the first few nights. She cooked him rice, chicken and sweet potato and nursed him back to perfect health by the time we got home!! She went way above and beyond what would normally be required!! Without her we would have had to cancel or come home early!! We got updates and pictures of Neo several times a day and she responded to our texts in a timely manner!! I simply cannot recommend Casey enough! I would give 10 stars if I could!!!❤️”

“This is our third time using Silvia - she is AMAZING! Our dog is a big cuddler (Cavalier King Charles) who needs a lot of love, and he adores her. Loads of photos and a great deal of care. Our house is also spotless when we get back. Highly recommend!”

“Thanks Mari! Our babes and home were well taken care of during our 12 day trip. She was communicative and very caring. Will definitely continue to rely on Mari for our pet and house sitting needs.”

About: Dog owner for 17 years, cat owner my whole life. I’m very active love long walks and cuddles. I just lost my 15 year old dog so I’m familiar with senior care and we currently have a puppy so I’m dealing with that so I can handle anything. I work from home so I can do before work (early mornings), midday and afternoons. I can stop in for feedings and or walks. Maybe just cuddles if that’s needed. Fenced yard, 2 friendly dogs. I can stop by for feedings/walks. Very trustworthy mom of 3 grown children. My pups are my world and I know you feel the same about yours.

About: I am very easy going I love cuddling walking and playing with the animals I am constantly petting and grooming and love giving them treats when deserved Its company, its takes away stress, fun, and loving. It's like having another family member in our household. The animal is like a human and is very enjoyable. I am a very honest, friendly, person. It takes a lot for me to get upset. I would take care of the animal like it was my own child.

About: I've had at least one dog in my life for the last 25 years. It has always come naturally to me. I thrive in multi-dog households. I grew up with a Great Dane, have had many cattle dogs, a beagle / chihuahua mix, and now have my big boy: husky / shepard / great pyrenees mix. I've taken all of my dogs to multiple obedience classes and love speaking with them using their language. I easily connect with all dogs regardless of size. I've even spent some time utilizing my animal communication and healing skills on many pets (dogs, cats, horses, rabbits, chickens, etc.) I live a grounded, spiritual life and have a way of connecting with animals that is not very common. I have the utmost compassion for all animals and I let them tell me what they need. However, I'm not a pushover. I do enforce behavior etiquette as needed, gently. I'm currently on career bed rest, so I have a fairly open availability. It's rare that I have timed appointments, but I do keep myself busy and enjoy to live in the flow of life. I have done and seen it all. I'm comfortable with fenced yards, leash walks, crates, gates, dry food, wet food, raw food - you name it, I've got you. I've never administered injected medication, but can be taught.

“Jessemy was friendly, communicative, and took great care of Jack and our home on out weekend getaway. We will defintely be using his services again!”

“I was very happy with Claire while she stayed at my home & watched my senior dog. She sent pics and texts and asked all the right questions so that she could provide the best care possible. Thank you Claire!”

About: I’ve always loved all pets! Grew up raising all kinds of farm animals. I currently have 2 dogs and I love taking them on adventures! I have a hybrid work schedule. WFH 2-3 days out of the week. I am a home body so I am usually at home if I’m not at work. I have plenty of time to focus on my pups! I treat my dogs as if this is their home and want them as comfortable as they can be. My dogs are always allowed on the bed and couches and roam as they please. They eat twice a day and have endless access to potty breaks in the back yard! The most I am out of the house is when I have to go to work, and can usually stop by for lunch and let them potty!

About: I have always loved dogs. We always had family dogs, and I always spent most of the time with the animals. Just love taking care of them and making sure they’re happy :) During the summer I will be inbetween school quarters. I returned to medical a school and am looking for some temporary financial help. I will be very available, other than completing dermatology research. I am looking to sit, board, walk, feed animals in the owner’s home. My family dogs are in a different suburb and while in medical school I cannot give an animal the attention they need.

“Annie was great my dogs loved her and I felt comfortable being away while she was with them ! I am definitely using her again in the future. She also sent cute pics of the dogs as well .”

About: Hi there! My name is Anna and I am an occupational therapist working in the western suburbs of Chicago. I recently lost my 12 year old greyhound named Ringo. I have taken care of many cats and dogs over the years and love to help out when I can. I was a professional dog walker with Windy City Paws where I dropped in on cats and walked many dogs, and I’ve also worked for Wag in the past and have and loved it! I used Rover once before as a consumer and left Ringo for a few nights with a wonderful couple while I visited my family and it worked out so well! I am typically available for walks or drop ins during the week. I love being outdoors and taking care of animals of all kinds and would love to meet yours!! I work as a home health occupational therapist, and my schedule is very flexible. I schedule time with my patients to see them throughout the day, and can schedule my pet appointments that way too! I have been professionally trained to walk and care for dogs by Windy City Paws, and know most leash/collar/harness situations as well as defensive dog walking strategies if I meet a sensitive pup while I am walking a dog.

“Excellent job taking care of my kitties and keep me updated and sent pictures. :)”

About: I have had a love for animals since I was a young child. At the age of 8, against my parents wishes I snuck in an abandoned cat and it ended up being where my love for animals began. We have had many types of pets since then. Currently we have a 3 year-old German Shepherd whom we rescued from a shelter at 4 months of age. We also have a 1 year old Australian Cattle dog who is super energetic. I love spending time with animals, dogs in particular, because they are so playful, happy and full of unconditional love. I am responsible, caring and will take great care of you pet because I know that they are not only “pets” but are also members of your family. I will care for your pet like I would care for my own pets. I work full-time as a nurse practitioner but just started working some days from home. I figured, why not do something I love while also getting exercise at the same time. Note: the only breed of dog that I will not board in my home are pitbulls. My daughter had a traumatic experience with a pitbull so she is very triggered by that breed. I will gladly watch pitbulls in your home and care for them outside of my home. I think they do get a bad reputation for being an aggressive breed but due to our experience, we unfortunately don’t feel comfortable having them around our children. I am able to mainly available for pet care on the weekends. I am able to accomplish most evening/late evening or very early morning walks. Every other Tuesday I work from home so am able to break up my schedule this day. I care for my dogs in my backyard, which is fenced in. She is able to run around freely because we do have a large yard which allows her to burn off her energy. We also play fetch and she is able to spend a lot of her time running around there. We also go for walks around the neighborhood.

About: I have had two dogs growing up. I have a silky terrier and I had a lab when I was little. I love having dogs around the house and taking care of them as they are my own. I have watched friends and family dogs for a while now and I love doing it. I would love to care for your best friend while you are away or when you don't want to leave them home for hours. I currently am working full time from home so now I’m able to spend more time with my dog and family. I love to workout, take the dog for walks, I love being outside and enjoying the sunshine! I live in a home in lombard, I would be happy to watch your fur baby in the comfort of there home, and if any crate training is needed I would be happy to help

“Sarah did a great job watching our pups. We definitely will use her again.”
