Cat Sitting Wauconda

About: I’ve taken care of a variety of dogs since I was little and have loved every second. I was always helping out my family’s and neighbor’s pets - and now I finally got my own puppy in August of 2025. Trained him all on my own and he is the sweetest boy! I work at a kindergarten with special education during the school year. Once June hits, I will be officially out for summer break and plan on focusing all my attention on Rover. I will have all the time on my hands to drop in and take care of your pets! My 10 month old dachshund is very well taken care of. He is my pride and joy - always getting all the cuddles and exercise he needs. I believe that all pets require the same love and attention that humans do and I treat them with that idea in mind.

About: Hi! I’m Delaney and I hope to be your new pet sitter. I’ve been caring for cats, dogs, and other animals since I was young. I have volunteered at animal shelters, fostered kittens, and pet sat for friends/family. I have a disabled cat myself, so I’m used to providing specialized care. I grew up with pets that needed daily medication, so I feel confident in that skill as well. Looking forward to caring for your babies as if they were my own! I work part-time so I have plenty of free time to spend with your pets. I can drop in twice a day or more, depending on my schedule and what you’re looking for. Caring for your pets is a huge responsibility and I assure you that I will prioritize them as my own. You can trust that I will treat your pets as my own. I will spend as much time loving on them as they are comfortable with, but if they are shy or territorial to a stranger in their space, I will respect that too. I will keep everything tidy when it comes to your pet. Nobody wants to come home to a stinky house!

“Dayna is fantastic. My dogs really liked her. She was extremely flexible as my plans changed several times. She sent lots of pictures and let me know what was happening with my fur babies every step of the way. I will definitely trust my babies with her in the near future. Highly recommend her.”

“Doug was great with our cat! He spent a lot of time with him, taking care of all his needs and giving him a lot of attention! We can leave our cat in his care, knowing he will be well taken care of and we won't have to worry about him at all. We highly recommend Doug to take care of your pet, as they will be left in very good hands!”

“Dorothy was outstanding coming to our house to feed and let out our 2 dogs. She was great with the dogs, responds quickly to questions and sent many photos while we traveled out of state for a wedding. We trusted her and did not worry about our dogs. I would highly recommend her services.”

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

“CHRIS did a great job even when one of the dogs decided that he wanted to run the house and not go on walks. Quickly, switch gears and made sure that all the animals were safe and still tried to make friends with Luke. And in the end, CHRIS did make friends with him so I believe we’ve got the start of a beautiful relationship. Thanks Chris and happy new year”

About: I have dealt with big and small dogs even if they are very mean or nice and I can deal with them accordingly so me and your furry friend don’t get hurt. I love Going on nice walks whether if it’s long like a few hours or short like around the block. I love going outside and feeling the nice breeze and smell of the grass and trees and I know dogs love it to. Ill always come prepared with extra poop bags just in case you don’t have any Im free many days of the week take care of your best friend. I love walking and taking some nice jogs during the day so I’m free almost every day to go out into the world and take your furry friend for a nice walk. if you have a cat i can chill with them while I brush them out so they can have a silky coat. It’s just so relaxing to do that and have a peaceful moment during the day If your dog or cat ever gets stressed I will stop doing what ever I’m doing and help them de stress a bit and figure out what might have caused it. I’ll take my time with them and give them something they really like or that’s calming in hope that they calm down. I will never pressure your furry friend into doing something that it dosent want to do

With years of hands‑on experience as a skilled dog handler, she brings a level of professionalism and calm confidence that immediately puts both pets and owners at ease. Her background includes working with Lutheran Church Charities Comfort Dogs, where she gained extensive experience handling well‑trained, emotionally intuitive dogs in a variety of environments.

Jeanine doesn’t just care for dogs—she genuinely loves them. She approaches every dog with patience, gentleness, and respect, treating each one as if they were her own.

Her combination of experience, intuition, and heartfelt love for animals makes her an exceptional choice for anyone looking for a dependable walker or caregiver. If you want someone who will show up with professionalism, kindness, and true dedication to your dog’s well‑being, Jeanine is the one you want. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because I have a very flexible schedule. I’m available throughout the day and early evening, and I build my commitments around the needs of the pets I care for. Whether a dog needs a consistent daily walk, occasional drop‑ins, or extra time and attention, I’m able to adjust accordingly. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so making space for it in my routine is simple and life‑giving. Caring for pets—whether in my home or a client’s—is always hands‑on, attentive, and rooted in genuine love for the canine. My own dog is my “fur child,” so I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, seen, and included. At home, we play ball, go for walks, I home‑cook her meals, groom her, and she sleeps right beside me. She’s part of my daily life and activities. That same level of care, intuition, and presence carries into every client’s home. I respect each dog’s routine, personality, and comfort level, and I make sure they feel secure and cared for. Whether it’s following feeding instructions, maintaining training habits, or simply offering companionship and affection, I provide a calm, trustworthy environment where pets can relax and thrive. My goal is always to treat your dog with the same love and attentiveness I give my own.

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