Joyce
Diamond, Illinois
Responsible, non-smoking online educator ready to make some new furriends!
Joyce came across as thoughtful and organized when we "met" on a video chat, and I knew right away she would be a reliable pet and house sitter. Everything worked out great... our animals (cat and chickens) were well taken care of, and our house was exactly as we left it.
Matthew
Diamond, Illinois
Trustworthy, responsible, and experienced couple available to care for your pets
We were able to spend a little time with Heather and Matt before we left, and knew they would treat our house and animals with care and respect. Their experience showed in the questions they asked. Communication and expectations were understood before we left, and we came home to happy pets and a clean house. In addition, they’re just wonderful, interesting people. We would have them again anytime!
Jerry
Diamond, Illinois
Responsible & Reliable "Seasoned" Couple Joyfully Pet & Housesit Across USA!
What a joy and an honor it was to have Phyllis and Jerry care for my home and my pets. I could write an epistle to describe in detail how much they did and how well they accomplished each responsibility. Our correspondence began many months ahead of my posted dates. Throughout this time, we stayed connected, and as we got closer, we shared more details about my home and care for the pets. Response time was prompt, friendly and courteous. They were incredibly flexible and understanding when I had to adjust my flight time and date. They arrived early on my departure day so we could have time for orientation, lunch, and conversation. Phyllis and Jerry were meticulous in following the instructions I left for cat and home care. They were dedicated to assuring me that things at home were going well by sending pictures of the cats included with special vignettes. They were respectful of my home and took great care of everything as if it were their own. For example, when the hose unexpectedly burst in the back yard on a hot day, they carried water in a bucket to my young Arbor Vitae trees. They are the kind of people who go the “extra mile” based on their high values and elevated work ethics. When I returned home, everything was glistening and spotless. The carpets had been vacuumed, the laundry completed, the dishwasher and waste baskets emptied, the stove shined, and the kitty litter was scooped and cleaned. My fur babies were happy and relaxed, an indication that they had excellent care while I was away. A delightful surprise was the colorful Autumn gift basket and note they left on the counter. I highly recommend Phyllis and Jerry in every way. They exceeded my expectations and fulfilled every task. They are friendly, enthusiastic, and fun to be around, and both have had a wide variety of experiences that translate into good common sense and wise decisions. It was truly my privilege to have the opportunity to meet them and to benefit from all they had to offer me, my home, and my cats.

Traveling Science Writer
Ibrahim, Iman and Elizabeth continue to be our luckiest find. We trust them implicitly with our home and our kitties. I know Puff and Polly are safe and happy at home, while we can travel worry-free.
Greg
Diamond, Illinois
Dog and cat lover with high degree of flexibility and willingness to travel.
I couldn't be happier with my experience of Greg as a Housesitter. He was exceptionally easy to communicate with from the start, which made the entire process stress-free. Every day, he dedicated extra time to play with my cats, ensuring each one received individual attention. It was clear that he genuinely cared for them, as they seemed happy and well-cared-for upon my return. Additionally, he maintained a very clean space and left my home in great condition. I highly recommend him for any pet-sitting needs; his commitment and care truly made a difference!
melissa
Diamond, Illinois
animal lover & traveler - cuddling + fun one pet at a time.
Melissa was an excellent pet and house sitter! We came back to our home, just as we left it. And our dog, Ema, was so happy and content. Melissa was great with communication and made everything easy.
Kim
Diamond, Illinois
Pet Sitter Extraordinaire *Pet CPR + First Aid Certified*
Kim was an incredible cat sitter! She was very friendly, organized, asked great questions before the sit, and took amazing care of our anxious cat Oscar. Oscar is a picky eater and we get nervous leaving him, but we could tell he was in good hands. Kim seemed genuinely excited to hang out Oscar. She sent us detailed, relevant updates on Oscar and our home. She also sent videos of Oscar. Our place was also very clean when we got back. I highly recommend Kim and we would happily have her sit again.
Theresa
Diamond, Illinois
Playful, outdoorsy and chill'n - respectful & reliable - exploring western US.
Theresa was great at communicating, asking for clarification when it was needed and for keeping our home in good shape. She sent photos of our cats, & spoke lovingly about them. You'd be lucky to have her at your home!
Justin
Diamond, Illinois
What fun is a life of adventure if you don't find new friends along the way?
Justine’s great. Kept me updated with photos of my very strange cat. She’s not very sociable but Justine knew how to deal with her, basically feed her then let her do her own thing! I would gladly employ Justine as my cleaner😂 Our house was cleaner than when I left it.
Naomi
Diamond, Illinois
Pup Lover Ready to love your home too!
Naomi took really good care of Beck!
Reviews from Cat Owners

Toby and Chloe were amazing pet sitters. It wasn’t the easiest sit - a nervous dog and 3 cats with various ailments and medication to have, but they took it all in their stride and cared for them so well without any issues. Our nervous dog Zelda warmed to them in just 2 days which is a record for house sitters so far! I also really enjoyed getting to know them over dinner the night before I left, they’re very easygoing and positive people. They also left the house spotless for when I came back. I would love to have them sit for us again. You can rest assured your house and animals are in safe hands with this lovely pair!
KOLBY
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!
Alexis
Elisabeth was an excellent sitter for our cat. We were away for two weeks and received daily photos and notes from her about Catman's activities (i.e., sleeping and eating). She is definitely a cat lover and that was evident from our cat's calm behavior when we returned.
Matthew and Cheryl
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!

My partner and I left our cat Mango in Lindsey's care for a month so that we could get married. We were going from FL to ME, so it was a long way from home. We were gone for a month. Picking the right houses sitter was important. We are so glad we picked Lindsey (and she picked us). From before Lindsey got on her plan to fly down, until she was back home again Lindsey was communicative, considerate and positive. We felt like we had a family member staying at our place and because of who she is, Mango and our home's well being was a weight off our mind during the wedding. If the need arises in the future we will definitely be giving her the right of first refusal. Thank you so much Lindsey!
Sunny
Kathryn was such nice and kind sitter that both of my boyfriend and me were grateful to have, including my cats!! My cats seemed having great time with her, being around her, chilling on couch with her, or even sitting on her. I got several photos of my cats from her with whort updates. I’m thankful that she let me do facetimes with her when I missed my cats. The house was clean and tidy when we came back. I definately will ask her again to sit my cats and house when I need. Thank you Kathryn!!:)
Joanne
Catherine was a wonderful sitter for our 17 year old cat Zabba. She sent us pictures twice a day and kept us informed about Zabba’s daily activities. We came home to a clean home and would definitely recommend her as a pet/ house sitter. My only concern was that she doesn’t drive and with an older cat, I just prayed that Zabba didn’t need to go to the vet…. And he didn’t 🥰. We will ask her again for sure.

Oh wow! Everyone should be so lucky to have Nicholas and Veerle watch their house and pets. These lovely people are pros! They communicated early and often, were super accommodating to some last minute changes (it was originally going to be only our cats to watch but we decided to keep the dog home as well so that added to the schedule and care needs) and they left the house spotless and all set up for another sitter who came in after them. We didn’t get the chance to meet because my departure and arrival times but I dearly hope I get to in the future because they were just great! I even heard how nice they were from My neighbors who say them out walking our dog. :-) They also sent regular pictures of the pets which look like pro-photography! Cannot recommend this couple enough! Your pets and house will be in good hands!

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!
Francine
Steven was a great sitter for our black lab Souris and cat Pinot. They were well looked after and really liked Steven. Our house was in good order when we got back and Steven was kind enough to give us a lift to and from the airport. He was very flexible, arriving day early so we could show him around.

Rescuing a senior dachschund someone discarded was only possible because of the loving care provided by Doggie Doody Pet Sitting - such wonderful, trustworthy and reliable people! Without this great service there simply just would not have been capacity for re-homing this amazing sweet dog! This dog brings so much happiness and love & Doggie Doody has brought such joy and peace of mind- they make lives better! A true blessing in the community! Thank you for all you do! UPDATE: 6-16-2019: When my beautiful, brave Duchess became gravely ill, Jenny came with me to the hospital when it was time to say good-bye for the last time. She became like family to us, and was there when we needed her most. It must be so hard to accompany someone on such a difficult experience but Jenny stuck by us the whole time. I am inspired by her compassion and caring nature. I would never have trusted Duchess with anyone else - she treated her with respect and love up to the end of her life. With Jenny, I was able to consider out-of-town trips & not have any concerns about Duchess. She never missed a visit or came late- she was so reliable. I loved the photos that she sent to me during every visit- something I did not know how much I would appreciate & ended up really counting on those photos. Finding Jenny when we were new in town was a blessing for sure & it is fortunate she provides exceptional service in the community. Thank you Jenny from the bottom of my heart! God bless you always!!
Jenny is beyond outstanding. She truly does go above and beyond when watching over our animals. We've used their services twice now and couldn't ask for a better sitter. Jenny loves our pets as her own and they love her right back. One of our dogs even has some separation anxiety but you wouldn't know it, being in her care. She sends daily updates with pictures on how they're doing and you can just tell she's providing a lot of TLC. We've been able to relax more on our trips, especially since we know our fur babies are in such great hands. We will continue to call on Jenny as we absolutely love and trust her with our babies.
We are so very pleased to have met Jenny from Doggie Doody through the recommendation of a friend. She has watched our 2 dogs for over 2 years now when we travel and she loves them as her own, and they love her!! Jenny goes above and beyond when it comes to watching our dogs- they love to go on walks and cuddle with Jenny. She truly spoils them. Her background as a vet tech for several years also gives us peace of mind that if one of the dogs becomes ill she will know the signs and get them the care they need. We highly recommend Jenny and Doggie Doody to care for your pets when you must be away. ❤️
After looking at several options for caring for our pets while on vacations, we found Doggie Doody online and gave Jenny a call. When she visited, Jenny asked questions and took notes. She spent time getting to know our pets and clearly loves animals. Our pets warmed up to her immediately and we knew she was the perfect choice for us. Jenny sends text messages and pictures during each visit and we can see first hand that things are going well. I would highly recommend Jenny to any pet owner. She has provided excellent care during two vacations so far and we feel very lucky to have found such a caring and professional pet sitter!
Doggie Doody has cared for each of my dogs since their first day at home. She trained them both to leash walk. Jenny is very reliable and always ensures someone is available to come care for my dogs. She is flexible and has come on short notice if have to work late. My pups love their Jenny walks! Sadly, we had to move away and Jenny did her best to help find someone to help us at our new home. I highly recommend Doggie Doody!
While we were out of town for 6 days, Jenny took wonderful care of our 16 year old cat. He had never been alone for so long. She texted us pictures of our cat ( Billy )every day. She also sent us update daily which made us feel so much better. She also retrieved our mail and newspapers. He took an immediate liking to her and wanted to sit on her lap every day. Jenny truly loves animals and it shows by the great care that she gave him. I would highly recommend Jenny for your pet sitting needs. We are so glad we found her !!!! (And so is Bill) !!!
Jenny has been taking care of my Dobermans since September and I am so very grateful I found her! She is reliable, trustworthy and kind-hearted. I love the picture/text message she sends me after her and the Dobes have gone on their walk. I hate leaving my dogs every day but it puts my mind at ease knowing Jenny will be there for them while I can't. If you are looking to for someone to take care of your "kids" while your away, Doggie Doody Pet Sitting exactly what you were searching for.
I've used many pet sitters over the years, but Jenny is the best I've found! She's reliable, flexible and genuinely loves animals and her job. She texts me pictures and updates of what's going on with my cats every day. This makes it much easier being gone from them and knowing that they're well cared for. She also brings in the mail and packages and makes sure the house is safe and secure. I highly recommend Doggie Doody!
Jenny watched our 10 year old bullmastiff, Stanley, for 3 days. We hired her to come 3 times a day. She spent quality time with Stanley at each visit. Jenny even heated up his chicken in the microwave, just like he likes it! He didn’t even seem upset by our absence when we arrived home after 3 days. We really enjoyed the updates and pictures Jenny sent us. It put me at ease that he was just fine. We will definitely be hiring Jenny again!
••Thank you Jenny•• Jenny has been helping with our yellow lab (Sergeant) since November and we couldn't be happier. She's dependable, flexible, and our puppy seems to smile through the pictures she sends of him everyday. Thanks to her and her amazing service I can be at peace at work, knowing that my pup and my home are in good hands.

We have used Dog Days Inn many times. Very nice place. The indoor outdoor suites are great. Nice people. Dog seams to adjust well. Feel at ease leaving our girl in their care. We always go with a bath and nail trim. She looks beautiful when we pick her up with a colorful bandana on.
I haven't actually used them for a pet resort but I adopted a puppy from a lady who either owns or works there and she was extremely nice and helpful and everyone I talked to there was very very kind, I could see it was well kept and the dogs staying there were all being taken care of .
We love Dog Days Inn. I hadn't boarded my dog Lula in years and my boyfriend and I missed her terribly and worried about her because of her arthritis problems in her back legs (she's almost 10 years old). …
