Cat Sitters in Woodridge, IL

Lysa

Lysa war sehr zuverlässig und organisiert und hat uns auf dem Laufenden gehalten. Sie hat uns sogar ein tolles dinner besorgt.

Veronica

Veronica came for the third time here for the long Labor Day weekend to pet sit my beloved fur babies. As always she was extremely thoughtful, reliable, and attentive to every detail both for taking care of both my home and my beloved pets. To add to her credit this time she also took care of my new puppy Hope, 4 months old, and both her and her daughter gave him a ton of love and all the attention and structured routine he needs. She also sent me several picture and video updates to tell me how it was going. Communication was super easy! I came back home with the house tidy and clean and my pets all super happy and relaxed. Thank you so so much again Veronica for your compassionate care to my furry family and hope our paths cross again! All the very best, Melanie

Erica

Erica took good care of my cats while I was away on a short work trip. She made it easy to communicate, made sure to ask questions, and sent cute pictures during the sit. I appreciate the care she provided.

Tara

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

Marc

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.

Ash

Ash traveled a LONG way for this sit and still managed to be right on time -- a great indication of the professionalism/reliability that was to come. Our off-grid mountain home requires a fairly detailed orientation, and Ash didn't miss a thing. And our indefatigable mountain dog was even tired when we got home -- not an easy thing to accomplish.

Marcus

Marcus was very communicative and proactive about planning the sit with us from the beginning. We had him arrive a few days early to show him how everything works in our apartment complex and to introduce him to our city, which I think is useful for all sitters so that things feel more familiar. Our cats took to him immediately (even one of ours who is particularly new-people-shy) and he kept us updated on the cats and their well-being while we were away. House was super clean when we got home and he even printed and framed some pictures of our babies! We loved having Marcus sit and would ask him again.

Susan

Susan took excellent care of our slightly high-needs cats and also sent us many cute pictures at our request! She was very proactive, was great about communicating, and left the house very clean. I would be happy to have Susan back any time.

Madisyn

Madisyn sat for us three times over the month of July (see other reviews for more info about how wonderful she is). We lucked out big time - Madisyn was a great communicator, super reliable, thoughtful, clean, etc. We would have her back in a heartbeat. Your pets and house will be in great hands with her!

Sofia

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! 🤍

darien

Darien watched my dog Lucy for a long weekend in New Orleans. Easy to communicate with. He followed all my instructions and Lucy was well taken care of. Easy, stress free sitter!

Alejandro & Cinthia

Alejandro and Cinthia were wonderful house sitters. They took great care of all 4 of our critters and were a pleasure to get to know. They sent photos daily and were very responsive both before and during the sit. Kora our big rescue dog is sometimes slow to trust strangers but she warmed to both of them quickly. They were careful and patient when they were first meeting her. We were able to relax and enjoy our trip knowing our house and crew were in safe and loving hands. (If you get to have Alejandro and Cinthia sit for you, be sure to ask Alejandro to sing for you. He is quite the opera singer and it was a real treat to hear him before we took off for our trip :)

Heather N

Emily was awesome! She took great care of Bella and Allie while we were away. The house was clean just as we left it. She sent us pictures of the girls on walks and kept us informed of their well-being. We would definitely welcome Emily back in to our home to care for our babies any time.

Kelly

Kathleen was just terrific ! The boys were very content when we got back home, as if we never had left.
No cold shoulder from either of them (Frankie and Jack) That's a good sign! The house was spotless and Kathleen had a good time doing some great second hand shopping! one of my pastimes too. 
She's very engaging, fun and interesting , i would most definitely invite her to sit again....
And we have ! She is sitting again the first of September for a few more nights!!!
