Cat Sitters in Deer Park, IL

Amanda

Amanda was really great. She showed such care and concern for our pets and contacted us with questions about their care and things that came up in the house. She left us a lovely bouquet of flowers that we are still enjoying. Thank you Amanda!

Daria

Daria was an absolute pleasure to work with. She took exceptional care of my boys, keeping them well entertained. Highly recommend

Anna

Anna was very good about communicating with me before and during her sit. She was also cooperative about coming one day early to meet the pups before I left on my trip. I felt comfortable leaving my precious pups in her care. I cleaned the house before my trip, and Anna left the guest bedroom and bathroom in good shape. The kitchen, however, was not left as clean as I had hoped. Other than that, I was pleased with the sit.

bonnie

Doug & Bonnie were great. The girls were very loved and cared for when we were gone. They even left us a cute little gift. Highly recommend!

Ron

Ron recently sat for a last minute work trip. He was wonderful. He was flexible, kind, and very communicative. Most importantly, he was great with my anxious pup. I would absolutely recommend Ron!

Brian & Margot

Brian did a great job caring for our kitties and taking care of our house. He was very responsive, gave us daily updates on the cats, and was a pleasure to communicate with. We came back to a clean house and happy cats!

Kory & Brandon

Kory, It was a pleasure to have Kory watching my dogs. My dogs were very well taken care of and became good friends with her dog Zoey. Kory communicated with us, sent us pictures of Oli and Beni. We came back to a clean house and happy dogs. I highly recommend Kory if you are looking for a clean, responsible and caring sitter. I hope I get to see Kory and Zoey back in Utah.

Sunshine

An absolute joy to work with! Niche and Sunshine were wonderful with my girls and took great care of them. I loved getting updates about Lucy’s “big feelings” although it was very clear she was having a great time on their walks. Definitely invite them to sit- lovely individuals, good communication and care.

Claudia

Great sitter! Booked my 2nd stay with her, super attentive and very caring with my cats

Garth & Joy

This was the second time that Garth and Joy housesat for me, and I had another fantastic experience! It was great to be able to take a longer vacation and not have to worry about my house or cats! Everything was super neat and tidy when I returned. I can't recommend Joy and Garth enough!

Susan

Susan was great! Our kitties were very chill when we got home, thanks to her! Our eldest cat needs medication twice a day and we appreciate that she had no problem doing that. The house was very clean and our garden was thriving. It was obvious that Susan read through the he welcome guide, based upon her thoughtful follow up questions. She also left suggestions for things to do for future sitters. Would have her back in a heartbeat.

Michael

Michael was wonderful. He is kind and intentional. The pups immediately were drawn to his calm energy. They absolutely loved him! It was a privilege to meet Michael and have him in my home. Recommend 100%! Thank you, Michael!

Genevieve

Joe and Dan did a good job looking after the cats. They were very helpful taking care of newly-born stray kittens that took shelter on our doorstep. They kept us updated regularly with pictures and left the house clean and tidy. We are very thankful and grateful our animals were in very good hands during our stay!

Heather

Carla came to our home in Italy for 3 weeks with her friend Jana. They were the perfect sitters. Very organized, self -sufficient and gave us regular updates. Carla was very attentive when I voiced my concern for our older dog who is nearly 15. Even though she is in good health I was still concerned being so far away but the girls gave me assurance she would get extra attention and she did!
Would definitely recommend Carla to sit and would welcome her back anytime.
