I wish I could give Windy City Paws a million stars! They're thorough when meeting you and your pup. They worked really great with my schedule and if anything came up they always communicated with me and had another dog walker available. I feel like my dog is in great hands with every walker. Special shoutout to Mia! You've been so wonderful with my dog Penny, sending lots of pictures and updates and just being awesome all around! Thank you so much for all of your help!

When I moved to a new neighborhood and outside of my last pet care's service area, I was nervous I…read morewasn't going to find another company that could take good care of my boy, Jonah. Thankfully, I was wrong. Purr is so accommodating, caring and genuinely thoughtful about all aspects of cat care. From communicating for key drop offs, to the email recaps they send after every visit, the two times they have watched over Jonah have been worth every penny. Each sitter clearly loves cats and pay attention to detail (and the numerous photos don't hurt). While Jonah will always be a vocal boy upon my returns, it truly feels like he was watched over in a loving way and that's all a fur baby parent can ever ask for - for them to be cared for as if they were others' own. I was so happy and surprised to find a pet care place that focused on cats primarily, and that joy has proven to be consistent with all my interactions with the Purr team. Check 'em out for your needy cats - you won't regret it!

So my daughter arranged for Green Paws to walk the dog every other day to give her some outside time and exercise other than in the backyard. Chris was her walker, and was he terrific! Was always on time, and the dog started wagging her tail the minute she knew it was him. With each walk, he sent a short amusing recap of her walk to both me and my daughter. I know it helped my daughter's anxiety about leaving her dog alone for so long. Great service - I couldn't recommend them highly enough. Thanks, Chris!

Thank you to Ruby (sitter) and Leah (owner) for their excellent care of our cat Daphne. Ruby played…read morewith Daphne and gave her attention / love while we were away, and we could not be more grateful. Each visit, Ruby texted us a photo and update to keep us assured of Daphne's safe care. We love our cat dearly (ok, I'm obsessed with her...), so to find trustworthy, fellow cat-lovers who are dedicated to cat care has made our trips away from Chicago a lot less stressful. Leah is professional and organized with a contract listing time / home-visit preferences, and we appreciated that Ruby came by before we left to understand Daphne's routine and care. Highly recommend!

My cat is older and a bit quirky (he likes to groom himself in the bathtub with running water) so I…read moredecided to try River East Cat Sitters during two recent trips out of town. I have to say this is by far an outstanding, compassionate, and professional cat sitter service. When I initially contacted Leah (the owner) by email-she recommended Susan (who my cat absolutely adores). The Initial Visit- The initial visit with Susan was at my apartment and was free of charge. She came over to meet and greet me and my cat and to talk about my cat's needs and routine. She was able to see the food, water fountain, litterbox, etc. The Cat Care- Upon notifying River East Cat Sitters when I went out of town-Susan came to care for my cat daily. She spent a half an hour each visit with him. Since my cat is shy-I was expecting for him to just remain under the table-but NOPE-he loved her visits and she even turned on the water in the tub for him to get his little head wet and groom himself. He was so well adjusted and happy with Susan that when I returned from each visit-it was just like I had never left. He was content, happy, well fed, and well adjusted. The Fees- It costs $18.00 per half an hour visit. You can pay via Paypal on their web site. I left a tip for each visit on the table for Susan as well. River East Cat Sitters also offers mail pickup and other minor services for a nominal fee. The Business- Is licensed and bonded. A contract is provided and signed before the date of service and clearly outlines the roles and responsibilities of River East Cat Sitters. Why Susan is the BEST- FYI-Ask for Susan! She is truly amazing! She left a welcome home note for me when I returned from each of my trips. She also sent daily text messages and pictures of my cat! It was very comforting and reassuring! TRULY STELLAR SERVICE!

If you're looking for a wonderful dog sitter, Jerry from Boy Meets Dog is fantastic. I had an…read moreupcoming trip and reached out to Jerry via his website. He was responsive from the beginning and cared to ask many questions about my dog, Ziggy, in order to get to know him. I left Ziggy with Jerry for almost 3 weeks and I had peace of mind that Ziggy was being cared for in the best way. In fact, I think Ziggy was a bit sad to be picked up after his time with Jerry. Would highly recommend Jerry's services and will use him again in the future.

We're so grateful to have found Jerry! He watched our two dogs for a week right after our move to…read moreChicago, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience.

Truly gave us peace of mind during a hectic time, and we're so thankful to have someone we trust with our pups. Highly recommend! Attached Nala getting hugs and Simba being a cutie!!

(we were lucky enough to get nearly a month of puppy leave.) It was hard finding someone we felt we could trust, but Jack and his crew came highly recommended from my best friend. And sure enough, as soon as I met Jack I knew he was the one for us. We work in social media so we have weird hours and our schedules change day to day. Jack is always flexible and incredibly accommodating. We literally couldn't raise Theo without him and his team. A BIG plus for us is that Jack and co. only take one dog out at a time, so I know that Theo is safe and getting one on one attention. I know "wag" is a thing, but I see those walkers with 4 dogs at a time and I shudder. What if one dog turns on the other? Also, we love that a quick text and picture is standard and included in the incredibly reasonable pricing. Spencer seems to be the walker who takes Theo out the most, and his pictures are always amazing. We cannot thank this crew enough for taking care of our little guy. It's such a relief knowing we have them in our lives.

The people who work for him (Spencer, Josh, and any others who I don't know) are also great, and our cat loves them (and she is a VERY picky judge of character!) They're very flexible, have helped us out on very short notice before, and have even helped us out with special requests. I could go on and one, but these folks are the best!
