“Alexandra was amazing with our dog. She gave so many updates, was responsive to all of my messages, and made me feel so comfortable leaving Max at home where he prefers to be. We will definitely rebook Alexandra the next time we need a dog sitter.”
About: From dogs to turtles to birds. I grew up with animals all my life. I have my own young pup and senior dog. I truly know the time it takes, walking/ exercising, food schedule, and love to give to both! I love love love animals, so I definitely want to incorporate pet sitting into my lifestyle; especially if it means I can help others during their travels and such. I’m a new mom, but I have a flexible schedule most days! If my hubby works during the time of your pet’s care, I will have to bring the baby so he’s not left alone. I know the value in crate training, potty/ food schedules if need be, being in a comfortable space for your pet, and anything to maintain their sanctuary at home.
“Amber was so wonderful with our dog Kermit. He couldn’t wait for her to come back each visit. He would wait by the door for her. She gave him lots of love and attention and will definitely use her again in the future. Thank you!!!”
“Our normal cat sitter had a family emergency and canceled our reservations. Meaghan was willing to help us on short notice. She did a fantastic job. We received daily updates and pictures. We had added a bunch of extra chores for her, one of the cats needing medication as such. She even kept up with vacuuming up the tiny bits of food that can tend to be thrown around when the cats eat. We came home to relaxed kitties and a clean house. We intended to contact her first if we ever have the need. Highly recommend!”
“Emma did an excellent job caring for our dog Dante! She was great with him and was very attentive to his needs and well-being. We were very happy with the service she provided our family in taking care of our Dog.”
“Lauchlan, we can't thank you enough for coming by and being so flexible with the dogs! I hope they were no problem! We appreciate you and so happy all seemed to work out.”
“Jessi has been awesome letting the pups out. She always sends a lot of pictures and information on how the dogs are doing. We have used her multiple times and will continue to use her”
“Lisa is a fellow cat lady for sure. She gets cats. Ours were completely enchanted by her. The love and care that she showed our cats made us feel better about leaving them home. She left detailed messages about what they were doing. Her videos and pictures made us smile.”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life from big dogs to small. I love walking my own dogs in forest preserves and I have dog-sat my neighbor’s dog before. I also worked at a pet store for a few months. I’m currently in school and have a part time job, but my mornings during the weekdays from 6 am to 11am are free to walk your dogs. I currently don’t offer pet care in my home, but I’m happy to travel to you. I make sure pets feel safe, happy, and loved while in their own home. I follow their usual routine for feeding, walks, and playtime. I can also send updates and photos so you know they’re doing great while you’re away.
“Balbina was patient with Jackson as this was their first time meeting and my dog was a little hesitant! Thank you so much for taking care of my boy when I was in a bind!!”
About: I have worked at a boarding/ doggie daycare facility for over 10 years! I have knowledge on giving meds and going the lengths for your pets to get to know me and be comfortable in their own environment. I am known as an animal whisperer cause dogs that may have trouble with others I attract! I am free in the mornings typically and usually all weekends I have 2 dogs of my own that I care for. I mostly work nights so I get off around 8:30 but the rest of the night I am free for any late night needs I take care of your fur babies as if they were my own with any instructions you may have. If they have a schedule I like to stick with it
“Kimberly was amazing. She did drop in visits for a week for my two dogs and took excellent care of them. She is professional, courteous and communicative. I highly recommend her!”
“Renee is just fantastic! We always feel safe and secure knowing that she is taking care of our furry babies! She always leaves great photos and a very detailed overview of her time with them. They are always happy to see her and we can tell that all 3 of our dogs feel quite comfortable with her. We can’t say enough good things about her and she will continue to be our go to for all our dog needs! Thank you Renee!!!!! 😊🐶🙏”
“Cynthia did a great job for a very reasonable price. Our cat is quite elderly, but he was healthy and in good spirits when we returned. The house was kept in perfect order and very clean. We also appreciated receiving daily photos. Even though he missed us, it’s clear he was well taken care of. Highly recommend!”
“I was very anxious about leaving my cat alone for the first time, but my meet and greet with Ally was so easy and comfortable I had no concerns. My cat even played with her and he doesn’t always like strangers. Would definitely book Ally again.”
