Walk the Dog.

No, not a yo-yo trick, but rather a strategy for your four-legged best friend.  How often your dog needs to be walked mostly depends on what breed you have and its health condition and capability.  There are many factors that determine the number of times you should walk your dog every day.  There are some breeds for whom once a day walks are enough, but some others, especially high-energy ones, require more walks each day.

Walking is very important because it becomes a physical daily routine…just like us humans.  It keeps his bones stronger and keeps him from getting bored and chewing things or exhibiting other destructive behaviors (that might be true of humans as well!).  Plus, it is productive that they socialize with other people and dogs.

You know how important it is to make sure that your dog(s) has/have plenty of exercise.  Now, whom do you trust?  If you live in the Southern Fox Valley around Aurora, Sugar Grove, etc. you can count on the crew at Critter Sitters.  Meet them all by visiting www.alltopcrittersitters.com.  Then give Sandy a call for a visit at (630) 844-9554.

A List of 2018 Chicagoland Turkey Trots

(Click the link above for more information)


"For many of us, the Turkey Trot was that first race we ever ran as a kid. Maybe it’s the only race you’ll do all year. Point is, if you’re not running this Thanksgiving, you’re missing out on a pretty spectacular running tradition."

Because We Think You Should Know.

How many times have you priced a service and you hear “well it depends”?  That is maddening isn’t it?  When it comes to pet sitting, prices can vary dramatically throughout the Fox Valley.  DO NOT get caught overpaying because you live in an upscale neighborhood.  Make no mistake, there are pet sitters who will try to take advantage of that!

That’s why it is extremely comforting to know the fees of Critter Sitters BEFORE you give Sandy a call.  Just go to their website www.alltopcrittersitters.com and click on the tab policies.  There you will find rates, scheduling, payments, etc.  You will know exactly what to expect before you pick up the phone.

Critter Sitters has nothing to hide.  They are even proud to give you the bio’s of their compassionate pet sitters.  Now the only question remaining is do you need a pet sitter?  Would you hire a professional baby sitter for your underage children or leave them next door?  Enough said!  Call Sandy for an in-home visit today in the Southern Fox Valley at (630) 844-9554.

Pet Poisoning.

It is a frightening fact, over 100,000 pets are accidentally poisoned in this country every year.  If and when it happens to your four-legged or feathered friend it is imperative that you do not panic and act quickly.  It starts with safety first by removing all of the potentially harmful products, plants, and foods from their wandering mouths.

Here are some helpful tips to remember –

1.  What did your pet digest and when?
2.  How much did they intake?
3.  Know the pet’s current weight.
4.  What is your pet’s medical history?

These are all important steps to insuring that your pet survives this scary incident.  When you cannot be around all day you want the peace of mind that comes with having the area’s best pet sitting service look in on your pet and your home.  In Aurora, Sugar Grove, Elburn and surrounding Chicagoland that answer is always Critter Sitters.  Call Sandy today at (630) 844-9554 for a visit to your home
