Country Meadows, Illinois
Retired professional couple will love and care for your pets & home like our own
If you are lucky enough to find Scott and Susan available your pet will have the best vacation and your home will be immaculately taken care of. I couldn't recommend these guys any higher. From the moment we first met over a video call and throughout their stay, their communication was excellent and they were able to be flexible when our dates changed slightly. I could tell that Barli fell in love with them immediately and they were able to handle all his quirks. We returned to a beautifully clean home and happy pup. We hope to have them come again next summer.

Robert is amazing!!!! He loved on our dogs, took great care of the house, was very communicative...could not have asked for a better person to stay at our home while we went away! I HIGHLY recommend him to anyone needing a sitter for sure. We are so grateful we met him and had him over.

This was our first time using a house sitter and I think we have been spoiled. Norm and Nancy sat our place and animals, (4 dogs, 4 ducks, and 7 rabbits) During and arctic freeze and several heavy snowstorms. They took excellent care of our animals and home despite the severe winter conditions. They have a very professional approach and left our house as we left it if not better. Our Dogs missed them after they left and while we were away we enjoyed Nancy's daily blog about our animals. It gave us peace of mind knowing that our animals were being taking care of the way we would. Nancy, being a nurse practitioner, took special care of our old dog that required medicine and special treatment. We were nervous about leaving him until we met Norm and Nancy. We are interested in house sitting someday and they are perfect role models to follow.
It was my first time using zeewoi so I was slightly apprehensive, but as soon as I heard from Kendra I knew both my cat and my apartment would be in safe hands. Kendra was great with communicating and coming back quickly, very friendly and clearly experienced with sitter jobs. Whilst staying at my place she sent me regular updates. Once I returned home the flat was spotless. I would highly recommend Kendra and I would certainly use her again. She’s great!
I was fortunate to have Hillary return for a second sit. She took excellent care of both my cat and my home. She got on well with my neighbors and even allowed my friend to come visit Suley while she was there. I especially appreciate how flexible and accommodating she was regarding arrangements for a sitter who would be taking over for the second part of my very long absence. All in all, Hillary is a gem!
There are not enough words in the English language to express my deepest gratitude to Teresa and all the amazing love and care she showed my sweet cat Milo. From the moment she met Milo, I knew there was going to be a very special bond. He instantly relaxed when he first met and already looked so happy and at peace with her. The bond between the two of them only seemed to get stronger and stronger with every day that I was away. This two-week trip was so important for me as it was the first real "vacation" I had taken in a few years. I was in desperate need of a mental and physical break and knew that in order to have a true "time off', I needed to feel completely at peace with Milo being well-taken care of. Well my prayers were answered as Teresa was the "cat whisperer" I was hoping for. I could not have asked for a better, more compassionate, self-reliant, and intuitive sitter ! Teresa was also so diligent in sending me her daily picture and video updates of my cat. With every picture and video I saw, I knew that Milo was so happy being with her and I never worried for one minute while I was away. What a gift ! Teresa was also a serious life-saver for me as literally an hour before I was leaving for my trip, I found out my cat's tracker app was not working and after a few emails and phone calls, we found out the tracker's server was down. Teresa took the initiative to follow up with getting the tracker to work again which was a HUGE stress-relief for me . She is not only wonderfully savvy with animals but also with technology as well ! I feel so fortunate to have Teresa in my life now, not only as an amazing sitter for Milo but also as a wonderful friend for life! Thank you, Teresa for everything.... Milo and I so appreciate you .....
We are thoroughly pleased with and impressed by Daniel's kind, generous, and careful care of our cat and our house. He is a committed and experienced sitter who completely understands his role and responsibilities and also how to gently win the confidence and affection of a pet. He is an excellent communicator, and he kept us regularly up to date on our cat's well being--sending us texts and photos at least once/week as we requested. Our cat who is a little afraid of new people, grew fond of him, and we have returned to a very calm, contented cat. We highly recommend Daniel, and we ourselves would be thrilled to engage him again when the need arises.
Becca was fantastic - we cannot say enough about how great she is as a pet and house sitter and as a human being! Becca committed to the sit 8 months in advance and was great with her responsiveness in communication during the long lead up to the sit. She arrived early and got the low downs on the animals and house stuff prior to us leaving. She woke up crazy early to help us get to the airport and picked us up when we returned, which made the traveling so much easier on our end. She left the house spot-less (and this is no exaggeration), with the linens cleaned, and a wonderful meal waiting for us upon our return. She is an absolute gem of a person with a great sense of humor and a kind and compassionate nature, and she really enjoys the animals in her care. Our dog and cat were very well cared for and totally at ease upon our return. If you are lucky enough to have Becca sit for you, you will be very pleased at how well she does the job!
Kimberly was a wonderful sitter who watched our two cats for us while we were out. She was willing to come a day early to help acclimate herself with the animals, and this was exceedingly helpful in making sure the cats would be comfortable with her during our absence. I would highly recommend Kimberly if you're looking for a responsible, caring sitter.
Amber is as good a sitter as you will find anywhere! She treated our cats with such love and care, as if they were her own. She left our house in perfect tiptop tidy shape, and made sure to wash all the towels and linens before she left. She even cleaned out our coffee maker and took up our weekly trash without us even mentioning it! Amber is super kind and personable and we welcome her back to sit for us anytime! If you are looking for a sitter, you should definitely accept her application!
Ruthee was a fabulous pet sitter for our three cats while we were gone for a month. Prior to the sit, she was consistent and communicative; she even came over early for a meet and greet to learn the routine. During the sit, she took great care of our three cats by playing with them (she made a fun cat toy!), scooping litter, feeding and watering them, and sent us text updates and pictures. We came home to happy fur babies and a clean home. She left the place very tidy which was greatly appreciated! We are so thankful for Ruthee and would recommend her should the opportunity arise. Your fur babies would be lucky to spend time with her. Thank you again for everything, Ruthee!
Tracy was an ideal pet sitter when we left for 12 days. She was communicative, friendly, and most importantly took perfect care of our two cats and our house. I would highly recommend her for any sit!
Karen was able to step in a sit for me on short notice after another sitter canceled. She was very thorough and communicative and I felt I had left my apartment and cats in good hands with her. I came home to a clean apartment and happy cats. I definitely recommend Karen as a sitter.

My wife and I have used Janes Pampered Pets for years and years. When we had our labs, they loved going so much it was one of the few places we would let them off of their leash. Both, male and female, would bolt from our vehicle, let themselves in the gate and bounce at the door until an employee let them in. Employees were quick with loving scratches and were very tolerant of the quirkiness of the dogs characters. Sadly, our labs have gone over the rainbow bridge. Fortunately, another doggo has stolen the hearts of our family. We have adopted a golden doodle and she loves it at Janes too! This dog is a Nervous Nelly, so it speaks volumes about how comfortable she is with the people at Janes! We are so glad she likes it there because we have known the owners for a long time thanks to their pet business and it isn’t easy finding a place you trust with a valued member of your family!
The people are what make this place awesome! Jane and her staff really do love animals. We have lived in this area for 8 years, and when we first moved here we looked for somewhere to board our furry, beloved member of the family. I only had one then, but she was precious, and I went to every one in town (and outside of town!) looking for the right fit. I'm glad I did my research, but none compared to Jane's. I was surprised at some of the other kennels...one never let the dogs out on grass! Jane truly cares though...she has been there through family emergencies, taking my babies when the kennel is closed, and keeping them an extra night when our plans change. And her prices are very reasonable! Her facility is clean and my pups are able to socialize and have fun! You have to check her place out!
Milo was there for only 4 nights, but the folks at Jane’s did a much better job than a not to be mentioned other kennel in town. Thank you!
amazing!! this is the best groomers in town by far. took my Pomeranian mix in for a full spa treatment, grooming,trim, bath, nails done. the works. my baby came out looking and smelling amazing. my baby even came out with a doggy bandana scarf on. so cute. I highly recommend this place. the people are super nice and the price is irresistible. Update many years later: Still the most amazing groomers I've ever had. My dog is now a senior and still absolutely loves going to Jane's pampered pets.
I can’t thank Jane and her family as well as staff enough for taking care of my newfy Bianca!! She got socialized with other dogs, small and large! She basically grew up there. She even got to see (chase) some baby goats and cows on their farm. They have great hours and affordable prices. I highly recommend and would bring her back any time!!
Amazing family owned and operated business that treats us like family. My dog is excited when she gets there and it's obvious that she is well loved by everyone there. Can't say enough good things about this place!
I called to get boarding for my dogs over the 4th of July. They accommodated all my requests up to the last-minute date changes and addition of a 3rd dog. Their prices are very reasonable. I recommend highly recommend them. Check out their Facebook page to view the videos of how they will treat your fur babies.
I love the staff at Jane's. They take such great care of my corgi for her grooming, daycare, and boarding needs. My dog used to be scared of car rides, but now she gets so excited to get in the car because she always wants to go to Jane's!
I’m always nervous about leaving my two rescue dogs somewhere new, but after leaving them at Jane’s Pampered Pets, I know they are in good hands. They got to play with other dogs, were very well cared for, and were loved on the whole time. They won’t be getting boarded anywhere other than here from now on!
We have bringing our dogs to Janes Pampered Pets for several years in Quincy. Our dogs get so excited when we tell them it time to go to daycare. We always feel like Jane and her team takes amazing care of our dogs. We have also used the grooming service on several occasions and were happy with the results of that too.
Fantastic kennel for boarding! Caring staff and great with my Great Dane Periwinkle that doesn't always come off as the friendliest. She was well cared for and they quickly became good friends with her. She wasn't even all that excited to come leave. Facility was clean, friendly and she was happy. I now wont have to worry about where to leave my dogs when going on a trip-Thanks Emily and Lexie you are amazing, Peri and I are so thankful!!
I went on vacation but I had to leave my dog here after a family emergency and saw a mouse? My dog got kennel cough after staying here. Please get better, no dog deserves to get sick after staying somewhere that “says” they take care of their dogs.
Very friendly staff! Our girl didn’t come home with any fleas or anything. Place was pretty clean considering it’s a kennel and they also had fans to keep the dogs cool. Will be using them again.
Emily and staff were amazing. Our dog a protection trained GS (our daughter) is not easy with strangers but she loved them and they loved her. It made us feel soooo good knowing she was in good hands. It made our vacation enjoyable. 5 stars 🥰 love these people!!! …
This place has been great to our German shepherd Daisy. She is a covid pupp and hasn’t had much socializing so she is a bit defensive and on guard sometimes, however she has warmed up to them nicely as they have handled her well. Thank you for being good dog people and a great place to leave furry friends when the need arises.
I have taken my dog here in the past and have been satisfied with everything. However today 5/9/21 when I stopped to pick up my dog during the pickup time, I waited for approximately 25 mins before ever being addressed. I called many times while in the building and even walked around the building trying to find someone. Finally the girl materialized and brought me my dog and her belongings. After looking in the bag it was very clear that she was never given he toys or bone and even thou she claimed she had been feed the zip lock bag still had the exact same amount of food as when I dropped her off. Very disappointed.
Good rates for the area. Nice to have a place to leave my fur baby when gone for a period of time. Can take their stuff in with them. Didn't run card for days after we picked up caused some confusion on bill but it all worked out. Will use again!
Katie Stoner is awesome, so loving to my fur baby
My wife and I have been taking our two large fur adults to Linda at the B&B for years and have never been disappointed. My dogs are always very excited to go there which I assume means they have a lot of fun there.
Great animal loving staff, our first time won't be last! Zoey and I thank you very much! Price was also cheap!
