Pet Sitting in Barrington
Personalized Pet Sitting in the Comfort of Your Pet’s Home
We know your pets are more than just animals: they’re family. But as much as we’d love to take them everywhere, it’s not always possible. Whether it’s a business trip, a vacation, or just a busy day, leaving your beloved companion behind can be stressful for you and them.
To ease that stress, Woofie’s® of Barrington-Northwest provides personalized in-home pet sitting for dogs, cats, birds, rabbits, fish, and other pets. Our local pet sitters follow your companion’s routine and care instructions while you’re away, giving them attentive care in familiar surroundings.
Call us at (847) 425-5379 to schedule a consultation and discuss your pet’s routine, care instructions, and preferences.
Pet-Sitting Visits & Everyday Care
Each pet-sitting visit is shaped around your pet’s routine, personality, and care needs.
Keeping your pet at home gives them a familiar environment, which can reduce stress while you’re away.
During each visit, we can attend to:
- Feeding and water refills
- Litter box cleaning
- Cleaning cages
- Walks
- Playtime and exercise
Our pet professionals are Woofie’s certified. We begin with a pet care consultation to learn about your pet’s routine, care instructions, and preferences. We can also review home access, emergency contacts, meal timing, preferred activities, and communication preferences. Each visit concludes with an update confirming completed care and how your pet is doing.
Get Started with a Consultation
Before scheduling, you can discuss your pet’s routine and requested care with our team. We’re locally owned and operated, with the support of a nationally recognized brand. Our website displays a 5.0 average customer rating, and we serve Barrington, Buffalo Grove, Cary, and surrounding areas.
Contact us to discuss your pet’s care at (847) 425-5379. Schedule your consultation today, or schedule sitting services online.
Barrington-Northwest Pet Sitting Prices
We’ll always refill water bowls and make sure your pet is fed, while also taking care of any coat brushing, waste removal, or litter box cleaning. After each visit, you’ll receive Woofie’s® of Barrington-Northwest updates, so you can stay connected with your pets - even when you're far away. We’re also happy to bring in the mail, water plants, and perform crime-deterrent measures like rotating the lights in the evening and opening the blinds in the morning for a lived-in look.

Do your sitters and dog walkers have background checks?

Will you also take in my mail, water the plants, etc. when I am out of town?
