About: I’ve been taking care/training dogs for 6+ years. I have worked with a professional dog trainer for about three years; training, boarding, walking, socializing, and generally taking care of them. I love training dogs cool tricks and basic obedience! I am currently enrolled full time in college, but am flexible in the early mornings, afternoons, and evenings seven days a week! Just let me know! I am experienced with taking care of/training multiple dogs, but would prefer working with one dog at a time (if you have multiple) until the dogs are at a comfortable level of training. This really varies on the animals, but I work with all situations.

Emma was a pro! A full week of looking out for our four dogs is nothing easy to ask of anyone, but she showed up for them everyday, loving and caring for them like they were her own. Coming home to happy babies gave me so much joy.

About: I have loved animals my whole life. I have cared for dozens of different animals, and have always had a pet. I am very knowledgeable and have basic skills in training, medication, and grooming. A dream of mine is to care for and rehabilitate all different types of animals. I am currently in search for a full time gig, but have a lot of availability throughout the week (starting at 8AM) and on the weekends. At a clients house I will take the necessary precautions to ensure their animal's and my safety. Any important details will be considered with great care and attention.

Bradley, IL, 60915

About: I truly love pets and enjoy taking care of them. I regularly care for my brother’s and my boyfriend’s dogs, so I’m very comfortable with daily routines like feeding, walking, playtime, and giving lots of attention and affection. I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable at all times. I’m patient, dependable, and attentive to each pet’s unique personality and needs! Pet care fits well into my daily routine because I’m already used to caring for dogs on a daily basis. I plan my schedule around their needs, including feeding times, walks, playtime, and relaxation. I care for pets in their home by following their routine, providing feeding, walks, playtime, attention, potty breaks and making sure they feel safe and loved.

About: Taking care of your animal will be my number one priority. I love animals, I will be more than attentive to their needs and accommodate anything you would like. I’m available any time you need me and I will take in any animal, big, small, furry, hairless, you name it! I love them all. I’ve had animals my whole life so I know how to take care of dogs, I’ve had cats now for 5 years and kittens and it’s a handful but it has taught me so many things needed to be a perfect sitter! I love getting pets toys, and fancy food sometimes to spoil them so expect that (if it’s fone with the owner) of course. I can’t wait to meet you and your lovely pet!

Rebecca did a fantastic job caring for my pets. She was dependable and thoughtful, making sure everything was handled even when a snowstorm kept me from getting home on time. She stayed later than planned to ensure my pets were safe and comfortable, and even picked up extra litter pans to help with my kitties’ messes. It was such a relief knowing she was willing to go the extra mile. I’d absolutely book her again!

About: I'm available for late afternoon and evening walks and drop-ins after 3:30pm. I can handle small to mid-sized dogs. I like to be active, so I enjoy taking dogs on walks or jogs, playing with them and cuddling as well! I'm not bashful about cleaning up messes, those things happen! I've been around dogs almost all my life! I'm available Mon-Fri and on weekends! Safety and fun for your dog are my number one priorities, and your dog will always be a phone call or text away for updates and photos! I'm detail-oriented and I know how to follow instructions word-for-word to make sure I meet the needs of your furry loved-one. I have a 5 year old cat named Joey myself! Thanks so much for considering me! I’m currently working part time, and I’m waiting to return to my full-time job in August. Once August hits, I will only be available in the late afternoon. Throughout my years of pet sitting and house sitting, I always abide by your house rules. Whether that means entering your home through a designated door or keeping a closer eye on your furry friend when they go out- what you say goes!

About: I have grown up with pets all my life. I currently have two dogs, two goats, two cats, and one chicken. I love caring for pets and I find pets to be comforting. I provide only the best care and I am a trustworthy pet care provider. I have 5 years experience in taking care of pets. I love cats and I understand their many mood swings haha! Pet care fits in perfectly with my weekly routine. I have a flexible work schedule which allows me to be with the pet(s) anytime. I know some pets may require having more potty breaks and I am well equipped to handle that task! I care for pets by walking them, letting them outside to go to the bathroom, feeding them, playing with them. Some pets may require more attention than others and I am able to provide that to your pet!

About: Welcome to my profile! I have been a caretaker for over 18 years. I started as a nanny, fell into a house assistant, and have pet/house sat for numerous people both in Chicago and LA. Currently I run a small business working part-time as a home organizer and looking to supplement that income. I am a good communicator, responsible, and trustworthy. I will give your animals and house as much TLC as I can. I work part-time as a home organizer and I am looking to supplement that income with more active work that fulfills me. There's a chance I actually open up my own pet day care one day. Tend to their feeding and bathroom needs especially staying consistent with the schedule the pet parents provides. Since I work part-time I can be home with the animals longer to give them more TLC..

About: I have taken care of all sizes and temperaments of dogs, no one is too much to handle! I am very gentle, playful, loving, and energetic; i tailor myself to the dog's specific personality to make them feel comfortable as possible while their parents are away! As a bus driver, I am available to care for your pet(s) between 10am-1pm, then after 5pm on any given week day. All weekend I can give completely undivided attention! I also have every holiday break and all of summer vacation off. I am only open to sitting at other people's home's; i do not have the space, facilities, or amiable enough cat to take in new animals as it stands! As for clients homes, I am capable of taking care of up to 5-7 animals at one time from experience. Care can look like oral medicine administration needs, basic grooming schedules, potty training clean-up, as many walks as needed, and even weighing out food/having specific foods per animal if necessary!

About: I have always loved animals, especially dogs! I am a responsible, energetic, caring person that would love to take care of your pet! Your pets are part of the family, just like mine. I have experience dog sitting small to medium sized dogs. I am not strong enough to walk or care for larger dogs (unless of course they are great on the leash walking). I do not discriminate against any kind of breeds. I have two dogs of my own that are chihuahua and chihuahua mix. I have cared for small chihuahuas to larger pit bulls. Just message me with your needs as I work part time as a dental hygienist so I will work around my hours. I, also, volunteer at a wild animal rescue where I get to care for raccoons, foxes, deer, possums, squirrels and rabbits under the supervision of a veterinarian. I love animals of all kinds! Caring for animals is a passion of mine !

About: Please take into consideration the quality of your pet sitter over a low rate inexperienced "pet lover" that just wants to watch animals . There's a difference. "RATES LISTED HERE ARE BASIC RATES- THEY MAY BE ADJUSTED ON A CASE BY CASE SCENARIO (UP OR DOWN) DEPENDING ON THAT ANIMALS PARTICULAR NEEDS" *******IMO- ANIMALS trump most people 😁 I Specialize in special needs animals & alternative ways to treat that aren't offered by most vets due to my life long experience , I know what works. I also am fond on taking care of any & all animals including horses and farm animals. Right down to guinea pigs n snakes of all kinds. If you need dog boarding, as long as I have notice I can make myself available & home 24/7 ** I work M-F daily, so any animal I can work into my schedule is a great fit. I cannot do daily letting out of dogs unless I have NOTICE (deposit required) I am open to ANY animal watched in my home if that is preferential. I can also "stay" in your home outside of my daily work schedule I'm in a huge farm house, large yard and except for weekly job am always home for one on one. Im extremely close to my local vet and have dealt with many different situations.

About: Ever since I was a kid I gew up in a household of cats, dogs, reptiles, birds you name it! My whole life I have loved animals, some of my main activities now is walking my dog to reach my health/fitness goals along with enjoying the company of my dog. I also currently have a gray Korat cat named Teddy/Ted Ted and a Red Australian Shepherd named Jazz! In the past I've taken care of family,friends and neighbors pets from birds to dog's while they were away as well! Right now I am currently getting back into shape while doing side projects online and yardwork. Caring for animals and taking them for walks will really help my goals in fitness and life in general! Also I am a very reliable person and can flex my hours to your needs! When I take care of friend's or family's pets, I make sure I am very punctual and stay as long as I need to make sure their pets are well cared for. I will make sure that I will make sure your pets receive the same treatment as my own. Please let me know if your pets have any special requirements, thank you!

Olivia took wonderful care of our dachshund while we were away- she was kind, caring, and loving to him, and sent pictures and updates while we were gone! We felt so relaxed and at ease, knowing Olivia was with our boy, and look forward to her coming to stay with him again soon! Thank you, Olivia!!
