About: I'm a playful and fun friend to animals of all kinds! While this app is focused on dogs and cats, I have expeirence with reptiles as well. I'm cool under pressure and can handle hectic environments. The wildest experience I've had was with 3 grown dogs, 8 puppies, and a cat. Best weekend of my life. I have one regular client in the mornings, Mon-Wed. outside of that, I tend to prefer about 5+ days' notice for sits, 2+ for drop-is & walks. I can be flexible when my schedule allows 👍🏾 I'm adaptable and can adopt whatever schedules and routines you specify for your pets. I know it's good for dogs to get some exercise, so I'll play with them as much as I can. (a win-win since it's also good cardio for me!) If they're good with other dogs, we'll go to the dog park! With cats, I find it's best to follow their lead to an extent. I'm observant and will get a good idea of their boundaries quickly.
About: What sets me apart is my patience, reliability, and genuine love for animals. I’ve had dogs my entire life and grew up caring for them by feeding them, walking them, playing with them, and giving them lots of love and attention. I also worked with children for 7 years, which helped me develop strong responsibility, communication skills, patience, and the ability to stay calm and caring in different situations. I understand that every dog has a different personality and needs, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits very well into my daily routine because I’m available throughout the day and enjoy spending time with animals. I’m flexible with walks, drop-in visits, feeding schedules, playtime, and giving pets attention and care. My schedule is open during the day until 3. Unfortunately if no response from pet owners ahead of walk etc I will not walk dog. I care for pets by making sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well attended to at all times. In a client’s home, I follow their routine closely by providing walks, feeding, fresh water, playtime, attention, and any specific instructions requested by the owner. I also make sure pets get plenty of companionship and exercise while keeping their environment clean, calm, and stress free.
About: I’ve been the long term walker for a rowdy pit bull, pet sitter for a house of 2 large dogs and 4 cats, and care taker of a high maintenance poodle. I’ve always loved animal and I love making them feel comfortable and happy! I am free pretty much all week with the exclusion of a few hours to see my own cat and go to the gym. I love being outside and lounging so whatever your pet is into I’m perfectly prepared. I have experience in feeding, grooming, playing, lounging, walking, and many others. I’m also a fast learner so any task you give me I will happily accept.
About: I treat every pet like family - with patience, love, and lots of belly rubs! What sets me apart is my personalized, compassionate care. From playful pups needing training and fun walks to seniors needing meds and gentle attention - I'm here for it all! Pet care is a joyful part of my routine, and I build my schedule around it. I am available weekends and various weekdays for walks, and drop-ins. Whether it's a puppy needing playtime or a senior dog needing extra care, I'm flexible and committed to making sure every pet feels safe, loved, and cared for like family. Whether in my home or yours, I create a calm, loving space where pets feel safe. With a fenced yard and nearby parks, they'll enjoy playtime, cuddles, and fun adventures - plus personalized care and consistent routines.
About: I have four American bullies. One orange tabby cat. And one turtle I like animals more than humans. And I am completely OK with that. I’m currently working part time. My availability is usually open during the week anytime after 6 PM. And my weekends are clear. I love pets and I will treat them as if they were my own family. Pets are welcome on couches and beds. Whatever makes them as comfortable as they can be. They can cuddle and get as many belly rubs as they want.
“great communications, right on time, dogs were happy and felt good to go with Walter, who has a very calm energy. Will hire again if we are back in Chicago.”
“Absolutely amazing! It is always scary leaving town knowing you have a reactive pup waiting for you at home. Tiffani was great, communicative and flexible. I definitely feel more at ease now for work travel knowing someone is in Piper’s corner.”
“Katie was very easy to work with! She was responsive and very willing to handle our older pup who needs to be carried. She kept me in the loop how things went. We would for sure use her again!”
About: Hi! I’m Mia, a middle school teacher and lifelong dog lover offering a safe, calm, home-based environment for your pup. As a teacher, I spend my days caring for others, staying organized, communicating clearly, and creating routines—and I bring those same qualities to pet care. I live in a quiet two-bedroom condo near Horner Park with my friendly 12-year-old Shih Tzu/Bichon mix, Penelope. She loves having canine visitors and is happy to share her toys, naps, and neighborhood walks. When your dog stays with me, they become part of the family. Pets are welcome throughout the home and are never left isolated. I provide multiple walks each day, plenty of playtime, enrichment activities, and lots of affection. During school breaks, holidays, and weekends, I am home frequently and can provide even more individualized attention. I know how important it is to feel connected while you’re away, so I send regular photo and video updates so you can see exactly how your dog is doing. Although I have been a dog owner for over 12 years, my experience extends well beyond caring for my own pup. I regularly provide pet care for family members, friends, and neighbors, including overnight stays, daytime care, feeding, walks, playtime, and administering daily routines. I am also currently working part-time as a dog walker, which has given me experience caring for dogs with a variety of personalities, energy levels, and needs. As both a teacher and pet caregiver, I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and communication. I treat every dog as if they were my own and take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and comfort level. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or a quieter environment, I strive to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free experience while you’re away. I am especially a great fit for: ✔ Small and medium-sized dogs ✔ Senior dogs ✔ Dogs who enjoy companionship ✔ Dogs who do well in a home environment Before booking, I love arranging a meet-and-greet to make sure everyone feels comfortable and it’s a great fit for both pups and owners. I look forward to welcoming your dog into our home! As a full-time middle school teacher, I provide pet care on weekends during the school year and have expanded availability during holidays, school breaks, and throughout the summer. While caring for your dog, I build my schedule around their needs and maintain a consistent routine for walks, meals, playtime, and rest. Dogs in my care receive multiple potty breaks and walks throughout the day, along with plenty of attention, affection, and enrichment. Your dog will never be left alone for extended periods, and I will keep you updated with photos and messages during their stay. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I live in a quiet two-bedroom condo near Horner Park with my friendly 12-year-old Shih Tzu/Bichon mix, Penelope, who enjoys having canine visitors. Dogs are treated like family and are welcome throughout my home. I take time to learn each dog’s routine, personality, and any special instructions before their stay. I provide a calm, structured environment with multiple walks, supervised playtime, and plenty of opportunities to relax. As a teacher, I am patient, attentive, and highly organized, and I bring those same qualities to caring for pets. I am also happy to schedule a meet-and-greet beforehand to ensure everyone feels comfortable.

Lina was an absolute lifesaver! She was able to squeeze in our dog for a last-minute week of walks! The day before our dog had an unexpected procedure done and required a little more TLC than she usually does, and Lina was just the person for it! She kept me up to date on how our dog was doing and gave her extra love! We will be using Lina again and I highly recommend her!
Sophia is the absolute best, I could not recommend her more. This is the second booking she’s looked after our puppy Poppy and she’s been fabulous every time. Poppy was spayed 3 days ago, and Sophia got her to take all her pills (no small feat as our girl is very squirmy) and is incredibly patient, caring, and attentive. We are so thrilled to know Sophia and she is our go-to for puppy care.
Allene has been a fantastic dog walker - communicative, punctual, and great positive energy for Rango - he always nearly wags his tail off when she arrives to take him! Allene does a nice recap at the end of the walk to let us know what the walk was like and what Rango was up to. We’re happy to have Allene booked for recurring walks with Rango and know he’s in great hands!
Maya is the BEST! I had an event to attend and she made sure my baby was taken care of through out the whole day! She stopped by twice , took Chuco on 2 walks and even feed him dinner for me! I couldn’t be more grateful. My dog, Chuco, is always in a better mood when he gets to spend time with Maya!
