House Sitting in Westmont

“Jayme stayed at our home with our dog and cat for 5 days and was a truly exceptional sitter. Our dog is older and has to go out during the night and has some anxiety, and our cat is spicy and both can be hard to win over but she did it! It was such a relief to be able to enjoy our vacation knowing our pets were so well cared for at home. The whole family enjoyed reading the updates and getting the pictures; Jayme even went above and beyond to celebrate our dog’s birthday while we were out of town! Jayme treated our pets like the family members we consider them to be, and we are so grateful. THANK YOU!”

“Sarah is by far the best Rover we had yet. Her communication and professionalism is unlike anything we’ve seen. She took great care of our dog and our house as well. She needs to be highly prioritized when searching for a Rover!”

“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.”

“Allie had such a great week with Jessica! Was so nice to get updates and pictures while we were gone and came home to a happy dog and a clean house. Definitely recommend Jessica and will definitely be using her again!”

“Amy was so good with our dog with separation anxiety. She went above and beyond by stopping by the day before to go over care information and to meet our pups. I think this had a big part in the night going well. She kept us updated throughout the night. 10/10 would book again!”

“Deja provided exceptional care for our two dogs over an eight-day period and also took great care of our home. She consistently kept us updated with photos and videos, ensuring we felt reassured that our dogs were in great hands. Upon our return, our home was spotless, reflecting her attention to detail and professionalism. We will be rebooking Deja for all our future travels.”

“We are so thankful for Sam! She goes above and beyond amazing as a sitter to our 2 boys even adjusting to the rare circumstances we were in the middle of during one of our bookings—giving meds and helping take care of one of my pups’ tumor removal on his paw pad that required Sam to calm and medicate sweet Palmer. She managed to keep my other dog and 2 parents’ dogs for a rare occasion and still had to deal with an upset stomach from one dog! It won’t happen again! I appreciate her feedback across the board— We are and will consistently work on our own pups’ behaviors to so they they treat our sitter correctly! Sam is the best!!!”

“Arianna was the BEST! She stayed at my home to watch my 12 year old dog and housesit. My dog had some digestive issues, and Arianna went over and beyond to clean up the messes. She was in constant communication with me and I would highly recommend her for any job. Very pleased with her and will be happy to provide her a reference!”

“Danica is consistent and professional throught the Rover experience. I've been burned before with previous dog sitters that have been inconsistent and unresponsive, but Danica is always punctual and quick to respond to any concerns/needs. I trust her to be with my pups when they are most stressed and take care of them when I'm away. That peace of mind is priceless and I love having Danica over to watch my pups.”

“I can’t thank bill enough for taking such great care of my dog, tom, who is definitely not the easiest pup to handle! He was incredibly patient, calm, and communicative throughout the entire stay. Tom can be difficult to handle, I was so impressed with how quickly Bill made him feel comfortable and safe. On top of that, he also helped with administering eye drops—which is no small task with my dog! I really appreciated the updates and photos—it gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Highly recommend, especially if your dog needs a little extra TLC.”

“This is the second time I had Ann watch my dog for me for more than a week in my home. My dog is elderly and rather high maintenance. Ann was attentive and caring so my dog could stay in his own home. At his age my dog can't be boarded elsewhere, he gets very anxious. I could relax and enjoy my vacation. Ann also took care of my plants and mail!”

“Sarah did a great job watching our dog for the weekend. We got great photos of her and it looked like she was having a blast! We appreciate the care Sarah gave our dog and would love to have her again.”

About: Hi there! My name is Natasha, and I’ve been a passionate pet caregiver since high school. I adore all animals and treat each and every one as if they were my own.

This allows me to have a flexible schedule during the summer and around holidays, perfect for spending quality time with your pets. I provide pet care in my clients' homes, catering to each pet’s unique needs. I truly believe in treating your pets like family, which means animals with anxiety or special requirements thrive under my care. I also have an amazing cat named Loki, who will be turning 3 this fall. You might spot him in some of my photos! I ensure he stays mentally and physically stimulated, which keeps him fit, smart, and happy. I would love to offer the same level of care and attention to your pet! Looking forward to meeting you and your furry friends! I am currently working part time which allows me a flexible and open schedule to work with. I will be teaching full time in fall, but will still be available for after work/weekend care! I am extremely respectful of your home, following any and all instructions you have for your furry friend to ensure they are as comfortable as possible at home!

“Loraine took great care of my senior dog. She sent daily updates and was on top of her medications and other extra care needs as a senior. Leaving our dog with Loraine gave us peace of mind while we traveled that our dog was in great hands. I would highly recommend her!”

“My dog and cat loved Stephanie right away. She was punctual, responsive, and kept me updated. She was also very flexible.”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs, I’m used to having to take them for walks, feeding them, and making sure they stay on their schedules. I’ve dog sat my own dog then in college I dog sat for a bernedoodle named Luke, he was about 90 pounds. I love animals, I’m here for the summer. I have no other job so I’m always available! It fits into my routine because I will make your pet my priority. I make sure pets feel safe and loved by sticking to their routine, providing constant supervision, clean environments, and plenty of attention. I follow all instructions carefully and treat every pet like family.

About: I have a deep genuine love for all animals. I absolutely love dogs, I have experience with big overly energetic dogs and small ones as well.

I have a lot of patience with dogs and cats. I have cat handling training and I also have my own 3yr old cat. I have a free schedule I’m very understanding and flexible when it comes to time and availability. I’m a naturally caring and nurturing person so giving your pet any type of special care won’t be a problem for me.

About: my family rescued our first (adult) cat off the streets when i was in 5th grade, and i’ve been dedicated to helping cats (and other animals) as much as possible since then. two of our cats were brothers (one of them passed away at age 12 in 2022 + the other we had to put down at age 15 in july 2025) — we rescued them right before they were about to put them to sleep because no one was taking them when they were less than a year old — i was in 7th/8th grade. the other two were a mother and kitten daughter, i was a sophomore in high school. my current + only cat is 4 years old, my manager’s cousin was looking to give her kitten away because she didn’t have time to take care of her, and at the time i still had one of the brothers who was very lonely, so i took her in at the end of 2022. because i have experienced having 3 females and 2 males in the same household for 4-5 years, i understand the importance of measures needed to be taken to introduce new pets, keeping peace, and how to break up fights before they start or as they start. i’ve had cats who have dealt with/have helped them out with the following: having cancer, giving birth, stage four kidney disease, feline aids, ear infections/ear mites, saddle thrombus, open wounds, eye colds, some sicknesses, soothing distressed animals, giving baths, brushing teeth, cleaning litter boxes, playtime, distracting cats, feeding them, cuddling, minimal/medium level grooming, cats going through heat (the mother & daughter both weren’t neutered for a bit - some of my old stuffed animals will never be the same) and many more things. my sister has a cattle herding dog that i’ve babysat whenever she comes into town - many times when he was a puppy — so in terms of dogs, my experience is: dealing with teething, playtime, going on walks/picking up any poop, taking him out for bathroom breaks, feeding, training (with instructions given by owner), soothing anxious dogs, dogs that jump, anxious barking/anxious energy, puppies with separation anxiety, distracting dogs, cuddling, and minimal grooming. i am happy to bring your pet to and from vet appointments, as long as the location is within a 10-15 mile radius and they are relatively easy to get into their carrier. i can take care of dogs/puppies, cats/kittens, reptiles, hamsters, chinchillas — basically any animal aside from snakes and spiders, i’m happy to take care of! i have an enormous amount of love for animals and although they are very smart + capable, i feel a personal responsibility to help them and care for them, especially when they can’t do it themselves. listening to animals and their verbal/physical cues, along with noticing and respecting the boundaries they have, is so important. i’ve also: helped friends walk their dogs, feed them, soothe them, distract them, and bathe them. i also have experience with taking injured birds into wildlife conservatories. i do not have experience with taking care of senior dogs, but i do have experience with taking care of senior cats. as of 2025, i have experienced dealing with the death of four of our cats (we had to give the fourth one away after a few years - we couldn't afford to have her neutered, and we decided it would be better for her well being if she was able to have owners who could do that for her), so it's given me an immense understanding of how important it is to give pets all the love, affection, care, keeping them safe, keeping them healthy, etc needed. Although, I am sad that we're down to just one cat now, who I love very much, being able to take care of other cats helps keep life from feeling too empty, and gives me a chance to continue giving my love to animals. clients who choose to continue booking with me get locked in prices — this means that the cost you paid per visit after your second booking gets locked in and doesn’t change, even if i increase my per drop in visit cost. this became implemented in September of 2023 — if you’re a client who has been booking with me prior to September, your prices are already locked in. if you begin booking with me post-September 2023, you’ll need to book me at least two times in order to get locked in prices. i find that working with the same pets consistently allows them to feel more comfortable and safe and allows me to build a good relationship with clients, as well. I currently am taking online classes at College of DuPage, so that is a very flexible aspect of my schedule. I also have a part time job as an Interior Design Assistant that I have a set schedule for, so that shouldn’t cause any issues. I work Tuesdays and Thursdays for the majority of the day, but am able to do drop in visits at night. I occasionally work Saturdays as well, but can do afternoon and night drop in visits on those days. With that being said, I prefer to have at least 1-2 weeks notice in advance when booking visits to ensure time for doing a meet and greet. I do not book drop in visits without doing a meet and greet first. Meet and greets are my vetting process to ensure safety for myself, any potential clients, and your lovely pet(s). It also allows us to go over any instructions, me receiving keys/codes/etc, and gives your pet(s) a chance to get a feel of me with their owner around so they feel safer when seeing me for the first time and it is less of a surprise to them when I arrive for any actual bookings. I'm not a morning person, so I prefer to do afternoon and evening drop ins, that way I can ensure that I can do the drop ins at the time we've agreed on, but am willing to do late mornings (starting at 11/11:30 am). to get this aspect out of the way -- when doing meet and greets, i bring my mom with me for my own safety. i hope any owner who wants to work with me is okay with that. i also occasionally bring her with me to do evening drop ins, if/when owners are okay with it (she likes hanging out with pets lol). every cat i’ve done a drop in for always loves her immediately - i’m convinced they can sense the mom in her, and they're drawn to that. she is also willing to substitute for me and do drop in visits whenever have a work shift that i cannot change, as long as it's also okay with the pet owner. i don’t host animals in my home overnight -- although we only have one cat now, she is very territorial and anxious. while i would love for her to have a friend to play with, i would not risk the safety of your pet or mine. at a client’s home, i would of course respect any boundaries they have in terms of where they want their pet and where they don’t want them, what they can and cannot do, etc. i would prefer to be given a list of instructions of rooms they’re not allowed in, activities they enjoy, if the litter box needs to be cleaned out, if one pet is particularly anxious or needs me to sit there with them while they eat (my cat needs me to pet him while he eats), things they like and things they don’t like, etc. i like communication to be as clear and thorough as possible, so i can do the best job and keep clients and pets as happy, comfortable, and safe as possible and to help build trust. in terms of administering any type of liquid medicine like eye drops or oral medicine, i would prefer to solely do drop ins in the evening, so i can take my mom with me for help. whenever we administered liquid medicine, but specifically the two examples i mentioned above, it's always been a two person job.
