House Sitting In West Lawn

“Nicole did an amazing job! She tried her best to maintain the same schedule our dog is used to. She took her out for walks and kept her mind mentally challenged. I will definitely use her services again.”

About: I grew up in a household full of pets and have been lucky to live with people who also own pets, sharing the responsibility. Over the years, I've taken care of many dogs and several cats, rodents (guinea pigs and hamsters), hermit crabs, and fish. I have mostly owned small dogs and have been lucky to see them mature into their senior years, so I am familiar with the unique challenges that can come with age. I do feel comfortable walking and caring for dogs of any size. Right now, my family is fostering two 6-week old puppies who need lots of attention and care, so I am learning a lot about puppies. While I haven't yet charged for my services, I have been trusted by friends, family, and community members since I was 15 to pet-sit and house-sit. I graduated from college a year ago and have been bouncing around a lot, working ground control at music festivals. Between festivals, I need a place to stay, so I am especially looking for house-sitting opportunities to spend my time and have furry friends keeping me company. Other than sits and drop-ins, I'm not working, so I can give your loved ones the time and attention they deserve. I am big into travel, so I've met and lived with animals around the world. I've volunteered at shelters in the Bay Area, SoCal, and Louisiana. I was most recently living on a horse ranch in Georgia (the country) and took care of 2 farm dogs and a kitten. They were very independent and mostly required food, water, and serious cuddles. On the other hand, I've watched pets of various temperaments that had strict diets, medication schedules, and mental and physical health needs. I know every animal is different, and I'm happy to do all I can to care for yours just as you would. If your pet needs to sleep in bed with someone at night or other specific requests, I can do that. I will also be exploring Chicago for the first time, so if your dog has any favorite parks or routes, I would love to know!

“Tara is outstanding! She goes above & beyond. Tara is very kind to my dogs & treats them like her own babies. I can tell they were so happy and well taken care of. My dogs love her & we appreciate the comfort & walks she provided to them.”

“I came home to happy pups, that’s all I can ask for. Lizbeth was very sweet with my 3 dogs who all differ in personality. She was easy to communicate with and kept me updated while I was away. I will be using her again for future sitting needs.”

“Haley and Emphraim were incredible! We were nervous leaving for 3 weeks, but the daily updates of our happy dog gave us enormous peace of mind throughout. We (and our dog!) could not be happier working with them.”

“Kathryn did an excellent job watching our dog and was very communicative and attentive. We would highly recommend Kathryn and would definitely use her again!”

“Kat is an unbelievable pet and house sitter! Our senior dog has cancer and she provided the most compassionate care. Our house was cleaner than we left it! We are thankful to have found her.”

“Alexa did a wonderful job taking care of our dog in our home over a long holiday weekend. She was communicative, made sure Beau got his walks and play time, left our home clean and our dog happy. She followed our instructions on everything and asked questions when she wasn’t sure about something. We hope our dog wasn’t too crazy for her, but we would gladly welcome her back! So grateful we found Alexa.”

About: I’ve had pets ever since I can remember, from dogs to birds! I’ve taken care of pups to senior dogs with so much care. They deserve all the love, all the cuddles and all the safety in the world. I can play with your pets all day long, they are supervised at all the times by two caregivers! They’d have lots of fun playing outside! I have a whole basement dedicated for pups and cats to have their own space, to play around in, and to sleep peacefully! I have a fenced yard where they can also be and run around in!

“Such a sweet and amazing sitter! Super communicative, caring, and made me feel completely at ease the whole time. My dogs were so happy and well taken care of. Would absolutely book again!”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was a child. I’ve loved animals since I can remember and I am very passionate about their wellbeing. I have experience with a variety of breeds and with senior care. I have not had a a dog in my home since my 17 year old chihuahua, Taco Bell, passed away last year. He was my heart and with not having a furry friend at home any longer any chance I’ve gotten to interact with any pup since has filled me with so much joy. Pets are family and I will care for yours as if they were my own. I’m just getting started on Rover and my schedule is very flexible. I can work my day around your pet and their needs. If you choose me as a repeat sitter I will gladly adapt to your pets schedule. I care for others pets as if they were my own. I’m currently unable to host pets in my own home but I will gladly take care of your baby in the comfort of their own home. Being in a familiar environment will help your pet feel more at ease and comfortable. I will be mindful and respectful of your space while I am there. I will follow whatever routines you have in place for your pet to ensure their peace and happiness.

“Grace was a fantastic sitter and exceeded my expectations :) My furbaby adored her within seconds of meeting, she spent a lot of time with him and sent pupdates and photos regularly. I’ll definitely continue to book her.”
