Dog Sitters in Villa Park, IL

Eva was amazing! She came and took over for a friend of ours who was watching our cats for the first part of our trip and it was such a seamless transition! Eva communicated well and even took care of a few snags that happened on their arrival (AC went out as soon as they arrived and they dealt with the repairman which we were so grateful for!) It's always a good sign when the cats seem to not care at all that we were even gone so we'd have her and Matt back anytime!

Claire and Rosemary were perfect! Given that I had had a very bad experience with housesitters a month before their sit, I was more apprehensive than I've been. But from our initial interview I knew they would be great. I feel badly that I left the house in the handover in slight disorder, with the festive season and packing to go abroad as well as cleaning up from the privious housesitters who did a lot of damage, I wasn't able to handover to Claire and Rosemary the way I would normally do so, with a full guide and instructions written out, a spotless house etc. But with all of that and given the sit wasn't very long, Claire and Rosemary did incredibly well! I managed to run through everything the morning I left with them in person, they were communicative and helpful, gave me regular updates and left the place clean and the animals well cared for. I felt relieved when I got back, it was a very nice feeling. I highly recommend them, I'm sorry we didn't get more time to chat and get to know each other, the fesitve season was particularly chaotic this year. I would gladly have them back if they were available!

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!

Where to even start with Emma, she is just wonderful. She came in at really short notice to look after Eddie for a few days whilst we were away, and took such good care of him. As most people are on here we were a little apprehensive but what an amazing first experience. Eddie loved her and cuddled up straight away, Emma was kind enough to send us photos and videos whilst we were away, and left the flat in such a lovely condition. Thank you Emma, can't wait for you to move to London!

5stars for Sylvia! I didn’t actually meet her as she came after I left and departed before I came home. My pup seemed happy when I returned home and the house was clean. Thank you, Sylvia!

Max was wonderful as a sitter. Definitely recommend!

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!

Connie took perfect care of my house and my dog! Pancake, my English bulldog, was recovering from a knee surgery and Connie took extra care to keep her on track for recovery, even encouraging her to use the new ramp to get on and off the couch. Connie also sent regular updates. Thank you Connie!

Amazing experience! Gus and Rosie were exhausted when we came home and adventured every day. We hope Kristi can come back again soon!

We booked Joanne and Rick in January. We had a great interview and booked them at that time. I kept in touch through the next couple of months. Joanne was very responsive and a great communicator. When they showed up at the scheduled time, we hit it off right away. Indy was very 'taken' with Joanne and I knew it was going to be fine. I asked for a picture or two each day. They took Indy on hikes almost everyday and I got great photos of him and the beautiful scenery. The house was just as I left it, neat and tidy. It was a pleasure to have them stay in our house. I felt that it was going to be a good sit and it was. I would definitely recommend Joanne and Rick and would have them back any time.

Kiwii and Ke were great with Kai & Kash.

My dog Teddy loved being with Theresa. She was organized, self-sufficient, and very personable. Even though she does online Yoga via Zoom 4 days a week, she took plenty of time to throw Teddy his beloved balls, snuggle and go on walks. She sent me updates and pictures. Teddy and I would definitely love to have Theresa come visit again.
