Dog Sitting in Berwyn

About: I have always had animals growing up, both cats and dogs. In more recent years I have helped dog-sit for a few different types of dogs, including a few that needed extra care and needed medication. I am comfortable around all kinds of pets and so happy to help take care of yours! I am a full time freelance photographer, so my schedule is constantly changing. I do typically work odd hours so I’m more available during the typical work week to care for your pet! I have a fenced in yard and plenty of space in my home to accommodate your pet’s needs. I also am comfortable caring for pets in their home if needed.

About: Hi, I’m Abby! Neighbors, friends and family have trusted me to take care of their pets while away. I’m trustworthy, safe and reliable. I follow all directions given, and communicate well. I’m currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time to walk, take care and play with your pet while you’re away. My schedule is pretty flexible. I make sure your pets are in safe areas and I follow all directions given to me. I care for them like they are my own, and respect your home and space.

About: I grew up with dogs my entire life, including a German Shepherd, Golden Retriever, and Pitbull mix, so I’m very comfortable with both large and high-energy breeds. I also have experiences with extended stay puppy sitting where I managed feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and creating a calm, structured environment. I understand how important consistency, patience, and attentiveness are, especially with puppies. I’m currently preparing to welcome a Golden Retriever puppy of my own, so I’m very intentional about creating safe, positive experiences for dogs. I work Monday through Friday but my partner is currently home all day, so someone will always be there to care for your dog! We are open to boarding any night. Walks I am primarily available after work or sometimes the morning before. My partner is currently available most anytime! We are both reliable and detail oriented. We are prepping to bring in our very own golden retriever puppy, so will treat your dog as if they are our own! As mentioned above I work Mon-Friday roughy 8-4. My partner is currently home throughout the day so someone will always be there to care for your dog. We are open to boarding almost any day especially weekends where we are both home. Walks and drop ins work best for me before work hours or after but my partner has open availability so between us we can accommodate to you! Feel free to ask if you have any specific availability questions! :) Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I live in a clean, calm, and pet-friendly environment and am very attentive to routines, feeding schedules, and safety during walks and care. I always keep dogs securely leashed on walks, avoid unsafe situations, and closely monitor their behavior and well-being. I understand how important trust is when someone is caring for your dog, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m reliable, respectful of your home, and committed to providing a safe and positive experience. I’m also happy to send regular photo and video updates so you always feel confident and connected while your dog is in my care.

About: Hi! I’m Thais, a reliable and experienced caregiver based in Forest Park. With over 7 years of experience working closely with families, I’m very responsible, attentive, and trustworthy—qualities I bring to every pet I care for. I understand how important it is to leave your pet with someone you can trust, and I treat every dog as if they were my own. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding routines, playtime, and overnight or date-night care. I always follow your pet’s routine closely and provide updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule and am available for evenings, weekends, and last-minute bookings. I’d love to help take care of your pet! Right now, I have a very flexible schedule, which means I can dedicate plenty of time to caring for pets during the week and weekends.

Pet care fits perfectly into my life, I truly enjoy spending time with animals and making them feel happy and loved. I treat every pet as if they were my own and make sure they get the attention, comfort, and exercise they need. When caring for pets in my home, I make sure they are always safe, comfortable, and supervised. I keep a clean, pet-friendly space with no hazards, and I follow each pet’s normal schedule for feeding, walks, and playtime. I always make sure they have fresh water, cozy spots to rest, and lots of love and attention. When I’m in a client’s home, I treat their space and pets with the same respect I would my own. I carefully follow any routines or instructions provided, from walks and meal times to medication or special care needs. My goal is to make every pet feel happy and relaxed while giving owners peace of mind knowing their furry friend is in caring, trustworthy hands.

About: Hi, I’m Sam! My passion for animals started early—I began volunteering at local animal shelters at 14, walking dogs and helping with cat enrichment. Wanting to learn more about animal behavior, I completed a six-month Canine Psychology course at AnimalSense, focusing on positive reinforcement training. From there, I began working professionally as a dog walker and gained nearly 30 years of experience in various animal care facilities. Now, I work from home, offering boarding services in a cozy home setting. I keep my groups small to provide each pet with a calm, personalized experience, ensuring they feel comfortable and cared for throughout their stay. I’d love to connect and help make your pet’s time away from home as relaxing and enjoyable as possible! I mostly work from home, so I’m with the pups for the majority of the day. Occasionally, I step out for a few hours to do dog walks, but otherwise, you’ll find me hanging out at home with the crew, keeping things calm and cozy I have an open home where pets can roam and enjoy plenty of playtime. My 8-foot fenced yard with secure locking gates gives them a safe space to run around. Inside, I keep multiple water bowls around the house and have slow feeders available for my more "hungry" guests. When boarding multiple dogs, I make sure to separate everyone during meals and when they’re alone to keep things calm and comfortable. I also have a variety of crates in different sizes and lots of comfy bedding to ensure each pet feels right at home

“Ashlea took great care of our senior dog Max while we were away on vacation. She made sure he got all of his meds and tasty food! And she kept us well-informed each day.”

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life. I feel as though lots of people want dogs but don’t care to learn how to properly take care of them so, I go above and beyond to take care of the dogs I am able to take care of within my power. I would like to have a meet and greet before I take on any assignments. I am a TA for Oak Park 97 school district. I love animals; especially dogs. I have a degree in Zoology and seek a career working with animals. I usually am free after 3:30 pm Monday through Friday and have open availability most weekends. I try to respond to messages as soon as possible and will work to accommodate your pets needs as best as I can. I make sure that my client’s pet’s feel safe as possible when they’re with me. While walking, I won’t let the client’s dog interact with other people or dogs because you never know how dogs will react with strangers or other dogs. That is unless the owner gives me permission to do so. If feeding is required I will make sure that the dog gets the appropriate amount of food for their breed or per the owner’s instructions. If need be I will also play with the dog and make sure they get the appropriate amount of exercise that they need.

“Sarah has done a great job watching my cats multiple times. One of my cats has a health condition and it's good to know that Sarah is prepped to make sure she gets her meds and keep me in the loop to adjust as needed.”

I currently work another job but have a flexible schedule to work in dog walks and drop in visits into my day as needed. When taking care of an animal I always make sure I have ample time to spend with them and handle all of their needs. I provide dog walks, I can also walk cats for those with adventure cats. I have no issues feeding any pet including snakes, lizards, and fish. I love playing with all pets and can play inside or outside the home depending on the pet.

“I can't say enough great things about Jacqui! They went above and beyond while checking on my dog, and it gave me such peace of mind knowing my pup was in such good hands. Not only did they make sure all the basics were covered—food, water, bathroom breaks, but they also took the time to give my dog some love, playtime, and attention, which made all the difference. I got regular updates (including some adorable photos!), and I could tell my dog was happy, relaxed, and well cared for. It’s clear that Jacqui truly loves animals and treats them like their own. Reliable, kind, and completely trustworthy. I'd recommend Jacqui to anyone looking for someone to care for their furry family members. Thank you so much for everything!”
