Pet Sitting in Arlington Heights

Kuldip was absolutely wonderful! Our little baby is quite elderly and needy, and she provided him the loving care he needed while we were away, with great attention to his special needs and issues. We received regular updates with pictures and videos, which was very reassuring to us concerned pet parents. When we returned, Reggie was freshly bathed and brushed, and he was in good spirits. We also found our home to be cleaner than when we left it, with everything fresh and tidy. We would have Kuldip’s back any time and highly recommend her to anyone needing superior pet sitting.

Shawn and Jennifer were the perfect pet sitters! We could not have wished for better people to look after Salt and Pepa! Not only were they meticulous in keeping up the cat`s routines, nurturing S&P`s idiosyncracies, and keeping them clean, fed, and happy in general, but they went above and beyond finding out what else they could want or need in a truly empathetic way. Shawn and Jen taught them new tricks, played with them often, stayed in with them most of the time and observed them and their characters so well, that it seemed after only a few days like they have known - and loved! - the cats for some time. Before we knew these sympathetic brilliant sitters with heart, brains, and instinct we were nervous about leaving our not even 2 year old cats with strangers for more than a month, especially since Salt can be a fragile soul who is very shy and needs a lot of time to bond with people if she does it at all. Not with these two people. They know how to handle cats professionally. Instead of overwhelming them, Shawn is present and offers them attention and playtime. We were able to fully enjoy our time away from home since they were communicating extremely well and in the frequency we agreed on. So we got pictures or videos of S&P every day and reports. The reports as well as the pics showed us that S&P had an extremely good time, and that after only a few days they behaved completely "normal", i.e. we recognized "our" cats from the way that Jen described them and photographed them. Shawn and Jen are both extremely reliable, down-to-earth and self-sufficient. IF there would have been an emergency, we could not have asked for better guardians. The welfare of the cats was always their first concern. What more can we say but that they are also very friendly, humorous, calm and intelligent human beings. When we came home S&P were like: "Oh.. you..? Ok.. But were are the other two?" In our living room was a carefully arranged series of printed out photographs by Jen the excellent photographer. We are so very thankful to Shawn and Jen that they agreed to look after our kitties - and our home, which they also did without fail - and we are truly happy to have made their acquaintance. Hopefully, we will meet again!

Truly exceptional. She baked cookies, if you can believe it. Such a perfect sit for our beloved animals and the house was almost certainly cleaner than we left it. Can’t say enough positive things about Kathryn and her husband, Rick. Filled with gratitude!

Ursula is a wonderful sitter! This was the second time that she has taken care of Puddle (my cat), and each time, she's taken great care of him. She's a communicative sitter who proactively sent updates on how Puddle was doing throughout the sit (including adorable pictures of him, which made my day when I was traveling!), and she was also very responsive if I ever reached out either leading up to or during the sit. From the pictures of Puddle that she sent, I could tell that Puddle was really comfortable with her, which made me really happy to see while I was away. In addition to the great care that she took of Puddle, the apartment was tidy upon my return. I highly recommend Ursula as a sitter. Thank you, Ursula!

Just like the other two times Cherilyn accepted my sits, she was stellar. Cherilyn was responsive, she genuinely cared for my little ones, and she never fails to leave my home even cleaner than when she arrived. She even offered to stop by my home one last time to give the cats dinner when she found out I'd be later than usual getting back from my trip. Thanks for another great sit, Cherilyn!

This was the second time Tay & Sergey house sat and it was another wonderful visit. Communication was easy, they took wonderful care of the guinea pigs, sending daily pictures and showing sweet interactions… And both the outdoor plants and indoor plants had been watered. On our return, the house was immaculate and they had remade the beds with fresh sheets. Tay & Sergey brought their older dog, Harley, on this visit and he got along well with the girls. He is welcome back anytime :) Thanks again, Tay & Sergey! Would highly recommend!

Joan was incredible during her stay at our home with our dog, Obi. She was so communicative and went above and beyond in terms of keeping the house clean and ensuring our home was in order and Obi was well taken care of. We’d love to host her again and anyone booking her could rest assured that their home and pets were in good hands! She respected that we were on vacation but also seemed to read my mind around when to send updates, and asked questions as they came up. Thank you Joan!!

Ranai was a fantastic house sitter and cat whisper. Highly recommend. We have two cats with very different personalities and both of them warmed up to Ranai quickly and ease fully. She was great about sending lots of pictures, videos and updates on both of them, all of which made us smile while we were away. In addition to her love and skill with animals, Ranai was extremely communicative, easy to coordinate with and left the house tidy and in great care. We would welcome her back anytime that she's back in the Bay!

This was our first experience using zeewoi, and we couldn't have asked for a better match than Shannon & Aaron. From their very first message, they put our initial skepticism completely at ease. Their communication throughout the whole process was thorough, clear, and thoughtful, keeping us updated on our kitties and the house, while allowing us the space to fully enjoy our three-week trip. It was such a relief knowing that our cats were in such caring and capable hands. Shannon & Aaron were incredibly respectful of our home, following all instructions perfectly. We returned to happy pets and a well-tended home. We couldn't recommend them more highly!

Aurora and Elie arrived before I left for my business trip. And they were super nice and we got to chat together a bit. I got updates a few times during the weekend, with a few pictures and detailed updates of how my cats were doing. My place was very clean when I came back and the kittens were happy. Would recommend them for sure.
