About: Taking care of pets has been my passion for many years. I’ve always taken care of other animals as if they were my own fuzzy family member and promise to provide the same to your pets. My primary type of care is with American bully’ breeds, but also have experience with smaller and larger dogs as well. As someone who has an incredibly flexible work schedule, I am able to easily coordinate care for not only my pets, but yours as well! I will provide your pets with the highest quality care and love that all pets deserve. They will get the much needed attention and care, whether it be medication administration for an older dog, or getting the zoomies out for your active pup. Walks are typically around a mile long, but can be adjusted based on each pets requirements. I can take them on jogs as well if that is what they prefer.

“We’re so thankful for Stephanie! Our dog can be a little grumpy and hard to please, but she was so patient and kind with him. It gave us peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. We really appreciate the extra care and attention. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve have grown up in a house with both cats and dogs, very comfortable with large breeds of dogs. I take the time to get to know each animal individually. I work full time and have availability usually everyday after 5pm. I am also available anytime on the weekends as I have those off work. I will follow any house rules and will do what I can to make your pets comfortable with me being in their homes to help take care of them in any way that they need.

“Madison, Thank you for taking good care of Maggie for us. We appreciate your prompt service and attention to detail. And Maggie appreciated the attention and time spent with her. Best Regards, Kevin and Teresa”

About: What sets me apart is a lifetime of hands-on experience, a deep love for animals, and a calm, reliable approach to care. I’m 31 years old and have spent my entire life around dogs and cats of all ages, breeds, and personalities. Whether it’s caring for energetic puppies, giving gentle attention to senior pets, or just understanding each pet’s unique needs, I treat every animal like my own—with patience, affection, and respect. I’m confident in administering basic medications, recognizing pet body language, and keeping animals safe, comfortable, and happy in any environment. I work full-time from 8am to 5pm, Monday through Friday, but I’m available for pet sitting on weekends and for walks or drop-in visits after 5pm on weekdays. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine—I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and make it a priority to give them the attention, activity, and affection they need when I’m with them. I have a fenced in yard with enough space to run and play, I also have a chocolate lab who is laid back and loves other dogs.

About: I have been taking care of the pets of friends and family for years, ranging from dog-walking to week-long pet sitting. Experience with a wide range of breeds and ages. I am a substitute teacher with a very flexible schedule, so I can take care of animals pretty much any time during days when I am not subbing. For sitting at other’s’ home, I try and keep the pet’s schedule as close to normal as possible! I prefer sitting in other’s’ homes just to keep things simple for the furry babies.

“That's for helping out so I could get married. Thomas did a wonderful job and did everything and more than asked. Would book again.”

About: My family has grown up with dogs but I’ve also had experience caring for cats. I also own a horse and very well versed in animal behaviors and caring for animals.

About: I’ve raised dogs for 30 years. I’ve always had Boxers, but most recently, I had a Bullmastiff. In December, 2024, I lost him to bone cancer. I recently decided to dog-sit, just so I can share my love with other dogs..I promise I will give your fur baby the most love, attention, and quality time that they deserve. If you choose me to sit for your dog(s) I will make them feel safe, loved, and relaxed while he/she is in my care. The last thing you need while you are on vacation or a day/night out is to worry about your dog. I will also get assistance from my husband and teenage daughter, both of whom also love dogs. I promise you will have nothing to worry about. I am a stay at home housewife. Now, with my child on summer break, your dog will get the loving, family attention that they need. I have a fenced yard and would love to be outside and play with your dog(s). I will respect your feeding schedule and can administer medication if needed.

About: I am available for drop in visits or walks in the Shorewood and Minooka area. I am also available to watch your dog(s) in my home. I have a fully fenced yard, a very friendly Boxer mix, and plenty of time to spend with your fur baby. I have been around dogs all my life. I recently had to let my Saint Bernard cross the Rainbow Bridge just shy of his 13th birthday. I volunteer and foster dogs/puppies from a few local rescues. I am very responsible and will treat your dog like I would my own. I love dogs of all sizes and all personalities. I can send you updates and pictures of my visits with your dog so you can see they are well taken care of. I am a teacher so I am off for the summer. I work one mile from home so can come home during my lunch time if your dog needs a potty break. My yard is fully fenced, my dog has free roam of my house and so will yours. I do have crates here in case your dog is used to being crated.

About: Hi I very caring, calm & pet smart – 7 years of experience with dogs, cats, puppies & seniors. Reliable, playful, and always on time. I’m available any day and time, except when I’m on vacation. I’m flexible and happy to stay overnight or adjust to whatever your pet needs!
