We've used both the…read moreDowners Grove and Naperville locations for dog walking and occasional overnight stays when we've been out of town. What I love: - having a consistent 1-2 people always visiting my dog but having back up options handled and ready if our regular gal is unavailable. - we get a photo and nice message summary of the visit with our dog and it's a highlight of my day to hear that she had a good walk and see her cute smile! - email communication and coordination has always been so easy. You can actually get a hold of the team and aren't stuck in an AI chatbot loop. - it's easy to cancel or add on walks/visits! Truly no complaints and everyone feels vetted and trustworthy. I don't ever want to use anyone else for pet care!

Leaving your dogs with someone else is never easy. They're not just pets--they're family. As dog…read moreparents, trusting someone with them takes a lot. That's why finding Judy has meant so much to us. From the moment we met Judy, we knew our dogs were in the best hands. The love, patience, and kindness she shows them is something you can't fake. She doesn't just "watch" your dogs--she truly cares for them and treats them like they're her own. Our dog Dant'e can be a lovable, goofy, sometimes stubborn boy, but Judy understands him and gives him the attention, care, and affection he needs. It's clear he feels comfortable and happy with her, and that means everything to us. Every time we come home, Dant'e is relaxed, happy, and clearly well loved. Seeing how excited he is to see Judy again tells us everything we need to know. The peace of mind Judy gives us while we're away is priceless. Knowing someone is there loving on our dog, making sure he's safe, comfortable, and cared for means the world to us. We are beyond grateful to have found someone so trustworthy, compassionate, and truly amazing with animals. If you're looking for someone who will love your dogs like family, Judy is the person you want. We wouldn't trust our fur baby with anyone else.

This was great, until the owner/walker disappeared off the face of the earth…read more I had given her heads up via email and text that I would not need her help during the holidays when family members would be home. She expressed understanding. I owed her payment for services and asked how I could get it to her more than once during that time frame and she failed to reply. I emailed her several days before I was in need of a re-start of her services and she did not reply. I figured it was just understood she would resume. Imagine my surprise/dismay to come home after 13 hours away to see she had not come over. She did not reply to my text, email, or phone call. Ever. I did finally mail her the check for services rendered. I even sent her the holiday bonus I had intended to give her - despite this disappearing act. The check was cashed, but she did not even have the decency to reply in any way, shape, or form.

They watch after our 3 cats when we are not in town and they never fail to give us daily updates on the services they provided, pictures of the cats and any concerns that have come up. Twice Simply Pets has really gone above and beyond for us - once when I had a family emergency and they did everything they could to fit us in last minute. More recently we were out of the country when our furnace gave out and Kelsie & Josie did everything from turning on our space heaters to finding alternate housing (in case the furnace couldn't be repaired soon). They kept us informed every step of the way and what's more important, did everything to keep our cats safe and comfortable. I feel very comfortable having the staff at Simply Pets watch our cats - from scheduling, to billing to the way they interact with pets, you simply can't ask for more.

Maryhelen loves your dogs like they are her own and she goes the extra mile to give them all the love and attention they need. I would highly recommend her to anyone that wants a trustworthy and compassionate person in their home to care for their babies!

Pam is also easy to get in contact with while we are away, much more so than previous pet sitters we tried. She sends pictures via text to let us know how our dogs are doing. We had issues with our dogs refusing to go out when friends stopped by to let them out but Pam's kind and gentle way won them over. We also feel that our home is in good hands while we are away.
