Pet Sitting Albany Park

“Anana was amazing! Even though it was a quick check in she still sent me pictures which was really kind of her. Would definitely book her again!”

“Kai was absolutely fantastic to work with and went above and beyond to care for my cat Monkey while I was out of town, and even helped with random maintenance needs and kept Monkey safe while the handyman was over. Monkey is clearly well loved and got plenty of attention, and I'll definitely work with Kai again!”

“Yara went above and beyond with her care of our cats. She always provides exemplary care (and updates/photos) but this time we are so relieved she takes such good care of our cats. One of our cats had an eye infection within the first few days of our trip. She took our cat to the vet early in the morning and gave the cat her medicine during the rest of our trip. We are so grateful!”

“Parisa was an absolute angel. Our beloved pet rabbit became sick while we were out of town, and she immediately stepped in to provide emergency care without hesitation. Her compassion, attentiveness, and genuine love for animals truly saved our little one’s life. We are forever grateful for what she did. she went above and beyond in every way imaginable. It’s rare to find someone as kind and dedicated as Parisa, and we can’t recommend her enough to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. She’s simply amazing”

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for pets in many different life stages and personalities. I have a 15 year old senior Chihuahua who has been through surgeries and illnesses, and through attentive care, patience, daily walks, and lots of love, she is still healthy, happy, and strong today. I also rescued an adult cat from the street who is now around 3–4 years old. Helping him adjust taught me patience, understanding, and how important it is to make animals feel safe and comfortable. In addition, I have an energetic 8-month-old kitten who keeps me active and experienced with younger pets as well. I am also a runner who’s ran the Chicago marathon, I am prepared to keep up with high energy pups! My pets are truly my family, and I understand how important it is to trust someone with your animals. Under my care, your pets will be treated with the same patience, attention, love, and priority that I give my own. I am available most days of the week for walks and drop-in visits, for house sitting I am mostly available on weekends. I keep my schedule updated daily :) I will care for your pet in your home and always follow your instructions carefully to maintain their normal routine and comfort. I understand how important it is to keep things consistent for animals, so I will make sure to follow all feeding schedules, care notes, and any special directions you provide. I will also provide regular updates so you can feel confident and at ease while you’re away, including messages, photos, and any important notes about how your pet is doing. My goal is to keep you fully informed and reassured. Most importantly, I will care for your pet in the environment where they feel safest and most comfortable, your home, so they can stay relaxed, secure, and stress-free while receiving attentive and loving care.

“Great job caring for 7 cats, it’s always complicated as the care is not the same for every one of them but Sheena was able to manage them all.”

“Ellie was excellent, I totally recommend her. I was out of town for a week and Ellie took care of my cat while I was out. She came twice a day to feed him, check his water fountain, clean his litter box and play with him. Ellie was very detailed in her daily reports and sent 8 pictures along with each report which gave me a sense of relief each time, knowing that my cat was being well taken care of. I’ll for sure contact Ellie again whenever I need to travel again.”

Michaela G.

“I've used Allie three times for my cat, who ordinarily shuns strangers, hiding behind the washing machine. But Carlotta is a big fan of Allie. Highly recommend!”

“Dinara is amazing! She helped me feel more at ease about having to leave my best friend at home while I went out of town. She was so sweet and took great care of my baby. I will definitely be a repeat client.”

Paige H.

“Houston was awesome with my two large dogs. They were well taken care of and Houston had excellent communication, patience, and flexibility with me for all of the changes in my schedule the day she was with them.”

Jaime J.

“Tiffani was so great with our two cats for drop in feedings. One of my cats is not very nice and they got along just fine and he even let her get a quick pet here and there. They got lots of playtime and pets and I got lots of fun photo and video updates. Thanks Tiffani!!!”

About: Animals have been a part of my life from the very beginning. Growing up with pets of all kinds, I’ve cared for them through every stage— from playful babies to their golden years. With a grandfather who was a veterinarian, I learned firsthand how to provide competent, thoughtful care. More importantly, I believe that animals communicate their needs, and I pride myself on listening to and understanding them. Whether it’s companionship, care, or just a little extra love, I’m here to support your pets like my own. I make my own schedule and can care for pets on any schedule that best suits their needs. I care for my own two dogs every day, the more the merrier. I provide a structured yet flexible routine for my dogs. They eat freely, are only crated at night, and go on three daily walks. Since I don’t have a yard, I take them on long walks or to the park for exercise and enrichment. Obedience training is a regular part of our routine, keeping them mentally and physically engaged.

About: *ABOUT ME* One of my favorite parts of childhood was naming my pet cats (from “Princess Kate” to “Snowball,” the options were endless!). As a shy child visiting friends’ houses, you would find me spending the time in the company of the resident pets. Now, I love befriending people too, but my love for animals never left me. It brings me joy to be with animals and show them my love! Whether that means stroking their noses, keeping litter boxes clean, or patrolling hairballs. I am highly observant and will adjust to your pets’ energy level and personality. I will eagerly play hide-and-seek or tag with your dog or cat in the yard or sit and bird-watch through an open window. (And, while I’m not a professional singer, cats seem to like my vibrato). :) *Older Adult Care & Special Skills* In my personal life, my experience in older adult care means I am naturally attentive, gentle, and highly patient. I am respectful of following routines and instructions, making me a perfect fit for senior pets who need a slower pace, comfort, and extra patience. I am fully comfortable following exact food schedules and watching over multiple cats at once. *Your Home and Trust* I treat your pets and your home with respect. I am highly communicative and will enjoy sending pictures to brighten your day. I’m currently working part-time, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pets! I am free after 3pm on weekdays, free all day on Wednesdays, and all-day on weekends. I am available to house sit on weekends and after 3pm on weekdays. During house visits or drop-ins, I will carefully follow instructions and make sure the doors are locked when I enter/leave. I will respect your space and make sure animals are safely settled in the right place before leaving. I will ensure dog collars are secure before stepping outdoors and keep dogs on leash at all times when outdoors.

“We are so grateful for the excellent care our cat received while we were away for two weeks over Christmas and New Year’s. Communication was clear and consistent, updates were reassuring, and it was obvious our cat was well cared for and comfortable the entire time. Traveling over the holidays can be stressful, and it was such a relief knowing everything at home was handled with care and reliability. We would absolutely book again and highly recommend.”

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.

“Sarah is a pleasure to have watch our kitties. We get lots of video and pictures and she has great patience with one of our cats who is a bit dramatic. Happy to have her come back anytime.”

About: I’ve always had a deep love for animals. Their loyalty, companionship, and energy make them so special, and they deserve the same care and kindness in return. I’ve been around animals my whole life and have hands on experience raising and caring for both dogs and cats. A little bit about me, I live in the Albany Park area and have my own reliable transportation, so I’m dependable and able to get to your pet when needed. I work freelance, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to adjust to your pet’s routine, whether that’s walks, drop ins, or longer stays. What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give to every pet. I treat them like my own and take the time to understand their personality and needs. I’m very patient and comfortable with dogs and cats of all ages, from playful puppies to senior dogs who may need a slower and gentler approach. I also have experience with cats and understand that every pet has their own unique personality and comfort level. Whether your dog or cat loves to be active and go on walks or prefers to stay home and relax, I’m happy to match their energy and make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. I also like to keep owners updated with messages and the occasional cute photo so you can feel at ease while you’re away:) I have a 7 year old Boxer who lives with me. She’s very friendly, loves other dogs, and would be happy to have some company. I’m easy to get along with, responsible, and always do my best to make sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for. If there’s anything specific your pet needs, I’ll always try my best to accommodate. I’d love to be a great match for your furry friend! My work is freelance, so I’m not always tied to a fixed schedule. This means I can plan my day around pet care and be available when your pet needs attention, consistency, or last-minute help. I offer both in-home and at-your-home pet care depending on what works best for you. My home has a secure fenced backyard and is close to a large park for walks and playtime. I also have space available for a crate if your pet needs it, ensuring they stay comfortable and safe during their stay.
