Drop-in Visits – Pet Sitting in Northeast Chicago and Evanston

Personalized pet sitting for your beloved dogs, cats, small critters, and birds and other exotic pets

Trusted Pet Sitting For Your Dog, Cat, Or Other Animal

When you are away at work, traveling, or otherwise not at home, Drop-in Visits performed by a professional pet sitter can be a perfect pet sitting solution for indoor cats, young puppies & elderly dogs, small critters, and birds and other exotic pets. During a Drop-in Visit, a highly trained, bonded, and insured member of our Care Team will come to your home and take care of your pet(s). Afterward, you will receive a Visit Report accompanied by fun pictures. 

Custom-made Pet Sitting Solutions

A Drop-in Visit can be 25 minutes or 50 minutes, and is totally customizable. Your pet sitter can do a potty break/short walk as well as playtime/time out of enclosure, food/water, medications, scratchies and snuggles (if pet allows), and more. We also offer Overnight Care for pets who need a snuggle buddy at night.

You can customize pet sitting visits based on the needs of your pet(s). Please keep in mind that when there are a large number of pet sitting tasks and or/when the tasks are more complicated, a longer visit may be needed. We will talk about your needs in our Free Video Consultation. We are fully committed to accommodating your special requests and ensuring the comfort and contentment of your pet(s).

Do You Have A Lot Of Pets?

We know how it can be. You get “just one more” dog, cat, hamster, turtle, etc. once in a while (who can resist!) and before you know it, your house is a petting zoo. If that’s the case, don’t let the “per additional pet” pricing above scare you. Let’s talk about how many pets you have and what their care requirements are, in our Free Video Consultation, and we’ll work something out.
