Dog Sitters in Polk, IL

Naomi and Adam stayed in our home and took care of our cat for 3 months. They were great guests—reliable, friendly, and most importantly they took great care of our cat and our home. Everything was left clean and tidy, they were quick to communicate, and our cat looks happy and well cared for. We would have them again anytime!

It was a pleasure to meet and have Annabel and Art care for our pup, Cosmo, and stay and care for our home. From our first meeting on zoom until our texts to finish the sit I had full confidence in their ability to do all we needed. Our dog was happy and calm and our house was in great condition when we got home. They were great communicators when they had a question during the sit and sent thorough updates and pictures periodically, which we loved. This has been a great 1st experience with TH thanks to Annabel and Art!

Could not ask for better care … I hope they loved their stay as much as he seemed to love them!

Laura was an exceptional, reliable, and loving sitter for our goldendoodle Scout, and took such good care of our home! Scout was excited to meet Laura immediately when she arrived at our home for this sit, and showered Laura with all the hugs and kisses. Scout has recently been having issues with seizures, so for this sit I was specifically looking for a sitter who had a depth of experience with giving medication and responding calmly in the event of an emergency. It was a big relief to be able to entrust Scout to Laura's capable and kind hands, and it was extra special that Laura's beloved vizsla had shared the same name. Laura is wonderfully easy to communicate and coordinate with, and was thorough in her care of our home. We came back to our garden looking great, house left in even better shape than I left it to Laura, and a very happy Scout! I cannot overstate how much we appreciated Laura's care for Scout and our home, and heartily recommend her as a pet and house sitter. If you're lucky enough to get on Laura's schedule, your pups will be with the most wonderful stand-in dog mom you could have hoped for!

Elsa and Ben are everything we hope for when choosing pet sitters. Communicative, responsible, dependable, kind - they truly loved our Angus and Harry and cared for them, our house and home as their own. For this sit they brought their sweet, well-behaved dog, Luna, who was a very fine guest and company for our dog Angus. Before we departed Terry and I were also delighted to have a whole day to spend with Elsa and Ben. In fact, we were enjoying their company at dinner so much that we nearly forgot that we still had to pack for our early morning departure the next day. While we traveled we were in regular contact and never had a moments worry about the pets or house. When we returned we found happy pets and a spotless home - laundry done, kitchen and bathrooms clean and orderly, everything in its place. If Elsa and Ben apply for a sit, we recommend them without reservation. They lived up to the name and expectations of "Trusted" Housesitters and we look forward to the next opportunity to welcome them back to our home as friends!

Hodan and Sami continue to be great guests in our home and caretakers of our cats! We’ve had them stay before and they continue to be a pleasure. Our cats were well taken care of and Sami does a fantastic job at keeping us updated. He even checked in to make sure that the food machines were full and double checked to make sure that the right food was used to refill them. They were also flexible with our schedule as our flight was cancelled and we had to arrive the next day. To make sure our cats were well taken care of, they stayed longer to keep the cats company. We’d recommend Hodan and Sami to anyone who wants to ensure a great stay!

The pets all seemed well cared for when we came home. They seemed quite comfortable and we were so happy to see them! We know they were a lot! 2 cats and 2 dogs are no small responsibility, and James & Leah were communicative throughout the entire stay. However, their housekeeping was careless at best. The dogbowl was slimy; something was spilled on the main carpet (it appears to be coffee); the stove doesn't appear to have been cleaned in 3 weeks; a pan has burned-on food; the bedroom was left a mess with unmade bed and towels on the floor; the office desk was cleared to accommodate Leah's work monitors and everything was left sitting on the floor; the desk has food and beverage circles despite available coasters. While I told them there was no need to deep clean, I asked that the house be left as it was found. It most definitely was not. While we're glad Leah and James enjoyed the house during their 3 week stay, we feel they treated our house disrespectfully and we're super disappointed after several wonderful prior zeewoi experiences.

When Joseph first responded to our listing he only had one review which concerned us. We scheduled a zoom call. After the zoom call are concerns we’re alleviated. In addition we invited Joe to stay with us for two days before we left on our trip. Therefore this review is based on first hand knowledge. Joseph is kind, considerate, dependable and intelligent about the way he fulfills his Petsitting responsibilities. He took excellent care of our two dogs, two cats, and our house. He was given instructions about walking, feeding and followed them perfectly. Our home was left in excellent condition and we can recommend Joseph without any hesitation.

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!

Rebecca was fabulous. She arrived a day early so she could get the routine and become familiar with everything. As luck would have it she showed up during trying times..extreme heat, smoke from fires, extremely dry conditions and a calf that kept escaping from the pasture. None of this was a problem. Rebeccca was really good about giving us updates in the morning to show us everything was fine. Rebecca honestly cares and took great care of our dog and chickens. Before leaving she washed the sheets and towels and topped off the fuel in the car. The house was left in really good condition. We would be happy to have Rebecca back in the future!

Laura was an excellent sitter. She was very communicative, easy to reach when needed, and a true pet lover! She took such great care of my cat, and even bought her special treats which I'm sure she loved. When I came home my apartment was perfectly tidy which I appreciated. I'd be happy to have Laura back anytime!

Elle took wonderful care of my fur family while we were away! My two dogs and two cats were spoiled with attention under her care, so much so that my dogs now expect a walk every time I stand up! Elle was great at communicating throughout her sit and regularly sent updates or check-ins. She also did some home projects and was very thoughtful with her overall approach to everything. Thank you Elle, we are grateful for your help!
