Pet Sitting in Waukegan

“Teri went over and above in so many ways! Her top priority is your pet and their comfort,which meant the world to me! We had to leave out of town and my dog wouldn’t have been comfortable in a kennel. I can’t say enough positive things about Teri! I’m very grateful for her attentiveness and the love and patience given to my older dog. Thanks Rover and Extremely grateful to you Teri! 🥰”

About: My family rescued a dog from a shelter when I was 14, and I helped out with daily walks, clean up, training, taking to appointments, and (later in his life) helping to administer medications (pills) several times a day. I've house/pet sat for cats and dogs, walked dogs for many other people, and I have experience caring for many "exotic" pets like hamsters, rats, hermit crabs, sugar gliders, fish, tarantulas, and even bugs! I don't have the income to support my own pet at this time, but I have plenty of love and free time to ensure your pets receive the top notch care they deserve. I'm currently unemployed as I figure out my life plans, which gives me plenty of free time to stop in, walk, or babysit your fur babies. I love long walks, and they'd be even better with the company of a pet! I treat pets the way I'd treat my own. I'm patient and gentle, but I can also be firm to ensure a pet follows the house rules even in your absence. I always make sure to clean up after pets, and I do my best to leave a place in the same state it was in when I arrived (if not better).

“Beth took great care of our cat, Rupert. He got attention and brushing time. 😊 Beth was super responsive and made us feel at ease while we were out.”

“Patient and has a good vibe all around. Happy we went with her! We feel comfortable having her with our dog. He can be a lot but she doesn’t seem shy or uncomfortable being around him.”

“Liliana is AWESOME!! Boo-boo got excited at her arrival. Liliana has worked with my schedule changes. My grandson’s graduation plans kept changing.. 😍🥰”

“Elizabeth was wonderful! She was thoughtful and attentive, and both kitties seemed to warm up to her really quickly. She went out of her way to provide exceptional service, and I’d be happy to make use of her services again!”

“Lindsay did a great job. She proactively offered to stop over to meet the dog in advance of taking care of her. She was timely and she sent pictures as requested. She also got along well with the dog. It was a great experience and I would definitely work with her in the future.”

About: With over 10+ years of hands-on dog handling experience, I bring both care and professionalism to every pet I meet. I currently work at a doggy daycare and have previous experience as a dog bather at a groomer, working with all breeds, sizes, and ages—from playful puppies to senior dogs. What sets me apart is my ability to provide not only great care and baths after playtime, but also professional pet portraits, thanks to my background in photography. As a Doberman owner, I know how much your pet means to you, and I’m here to treat them like family whenever you need. As a freelance real estate photographer, I have a flexible schedule with plenty of free time between shoots. I work at a doggy daycare only on Tuesdays and Thursdays, so I can easily accommodate your pet care needs anytime during the week! Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I follow your care instructions closely, use secure leashes, and stick to safe, familiar routes. I treat every pet like my own—with patience, love, and regular updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away

“Angela was super friendly, communicative, and flexible to meet our timing needs to see our cat. She also was great with following directions for administering our cat's medications (she currently takes seizure medications and is not thrilled about taking one of them). We will definitely reach out to her again when we travel.”

About: I have pet sit since I was in middle school for neighbors and friends. I have experience with puppies through older dogs, cats, birds, and fish. I am comfortable with feeding, walking, taking out, administering medicines, and of course playing with pets and cuddling them! I have had my cats since I was in first grade, so I understand how important pets are to a family! I am working as a dancer at Six Flags Great America this summer in their live shows. I will be working from 1-10pm Thursday through Mondays, and I have Tuesday’s and Wednesdays off. I am available each morning as early as needed until around 12, and I am also available for boarding. I do not work very far away, so although I will be out of the apartment for some hours each day, I will never be too far. I have a studio apartment with no additional pets, and very minimal furniture or places where your pets could get stuck or lost. It is a very safe and comfortable environment for pets to play and sleep in! I live right next to a park with plenty of space to walk and explore on a leash.

“You were great Tiffany! Thank you for being available without doing a meet and great. You really saved us on our last minute booking and you set amazing updates! If we are in fountain hills again and need a dog sitter, we will be contacting you!”

“Lindsey was wonderful to have as caregiver to our doggie, Phin, who is a Golden Retriever/Border Collie Mix with a lot of energy when outdoors. She cared for him so sweetly (her love for dogs is very evident), and was game for all the signs and directions I left for her as an overly prepared dog owner :) She was great to communicate with, and we're very thankful for her thoughtful care even over a busy Memorial Day weekend. We'll definitely be contacting her again the next time we're out of town! Thank you, Lindsey!”

Naomi A.

“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!”

About: I have taken care and self trained dogs from small to large breeds. And I would love to take care of your pup while your away. I am always home on the weekend and home by 12 or sooner on the week day. Your pup is not going to be left alone. My partner works from home and is all in on helping make sure your fur baby has a happy safe time here. I have a fenced is yard. So we can play outside for a little bit plenty of water and a baby pool if they want to cool off.

“Sophia was great! She sent very detailed summaries and tons of photos of my two kitties. I would definitely recommend her and will be booking with her again.”

Marcie R.

“Veronique was wonderful with my two huskies- I am always super concerned when I leave them alone & stress over their care. She was great at keeping me updated, sent me consistent updates, photos and videos. It’s important for me that my dogs connect with their sitter and it seems my two connected very well with Veronique. I’d absolutely recommend her and would totally book future sitting appointments with her. Thank you much for caring for my big boys 🐶 🐶”

About: I’ve always loved animals and have seen them like babies. Because that’s what fur babies are to me, children. So being able to help others with their babies is awesome to me! When it comes to my schedule I’m pretty flexible with what days and times I can do since I’m a student. I can also do weekends if necessary also. I can do whatever is needed to help your animal to make sure they are safe and get in the right amount of fun and care they need.

“Nicole did an outstanding job taking care of my cat while I was away! She was consistent in making sure his food, litter, and other necessities were well taken care of. I really appreciated the regular updates and photos, which assured me that everything was going smoothly. My cat was happy and relaxed when I returned, and I could tell he had been in great hands. I highly recommend her and will definitely trust her with my cat again in the future!”
