Dog Sitters in Highwood, IL

Dawn was an amazing house sitter. She handled issues that arose efficiently so I didn't feel I needed to "fix it". She communicated as needed and replied to any inquiries I made promptly. She left the apartment spotless. A great sitter.

Ruth house sat for us over the summer. She was great. She made the effort to come and visit us beforehand so she could learn about our pet routine and the house. She’s lovely - completely reliable and trustworthy. And wonderful with our puppy and old grumpy cat. I’d highly recommend Ruth

This was only our second sit so we are still figuring out how things work. We reached out to Suzanne and Jim about sitting after other applicants had declined for various reasons. We also recruited our first sitter last year. They were positive and willing to make the long trip west to us and interested in exploring the area. Lola was well cared for during their stay which was the most important thing. As in other reviews, some cleaning tasks did not get completed.

I was so happy to get the opportunity to have Marc come stay at my place while I was away for so long. He got along with my pets and loved them as if they were his own and my expectations were met above and beyond. I am so grateful that he found us! I will definitely be reaching out to him in the future.

Claire was a responsible and self-sufficient sitter for my condo and poodle mutt Wrigley! She sent photos and updates everyday, brought in packages, and left the house tidy for my return. I wouldn't hesitate to invite Claire to sit again!

Merle was understanding and flexible, and took great care of Ivan and Alloysha.

Absolutely fabulous experience! Bridgette's husband John helped us out with a crisis by couriering a lockbox key that I forgot which was mission-critical. Thank you so much for your help! Then, when we returned, our two Bengal cats were in high spirits; romping and playing through the house. Clearly, they were quite happy with the care that they had received in our absence. Coupled with the frequent photos Bridgette and John sent over the extended weekend, we were extremely pleased with how the sit went. It is also worth noting that our return trip did not go well. We were subjected to a series of boarding planes / deplaning / rescheduling / reboarding / deplaning again... Throughout it all, John and Bridgette were in constant communication to ensure that the cats' well-being was attended to. We finally arrived home around 2:00 and John and Bridgette had just left... We are so looking forward to having Bridgette and John again and hope that we are fortunate enough that they might be available for our next trip! These people are the best! Please feel free to call us with any questions. Ted (510) 566-7263

Skye was an excellent communicator, especially as we were solidifying our plans and navigating our respective travels. That’s so important to me and goes a long way in building trust. After getting settled, he and Anna were totally self-reliant while still keeping in touch throughout the trip. We returned to a perfectly tidy home and two happy critters. We’d happily have them look after our home and pets again in a heartbeat.

Sofia was an amazing house sitter for my cat, Fiona. She was very independent and self sufficient, Attentive to detail, took amazing care of Fiona, and left my house spotless. I would not hesitate to have Sofia stay at my place and take care of Fiona again. Thanks Sofia! 🤍

What a lovely, happy, friendly girl Serra is. I felt completely relaxed about leaving her with Millie who loved her too. She gave regular updates on Millie while we were away and left the house spotless. I would highly recommend her to anyone.

Hannah is hands down my favorite sitter, and always does an amazing job with both the cats and the condo.

Tati was an incredible pet sitter; she’s one of those who rarely comes along and sets the bar high for other sitters. She has a great personality and will go out of her way to make you and your pet comfortable. She was highly communicative, sending me cute photos and videos of Mona at least twice a day. Tati actually took the time to play with Mona and give her the attention she needs— and the treats she craves! I could tell that Mona adored Tati and didn’t want her to leave. (Mona wasn’t even mad at me when I got back, which was a pleasant surprise!) Never once during my trip did I feel anxious or worried about Mona or my apartment. Tati waited for me to come back home, and everything was in order. Mona was happy, the apartment was tidy, and Tati even put a fresh set of sheets on my bed before she left. I would hire Tati again in a heartbeat and am actually quite sad that she won’t be around the next time I travel. That being said, I would 100% recommend her!
