About: Attentive, respectful and empathetic cat sitter who respects feline routines, provides calm, consistent care, and ensures your cat feels safe, loved, and stress-free in your absence. Pet care fits seamlessly into my week, with 20 flexible hours including weekends, allowing focused, reliable visits around my full-time schedule and clients’ needs and expectations. In my place, I pet-proof my space—removing hazards, securing trash, and blocking off restricted areas and I replicate the pet’s usual feeding, play, and rest schedule. I make sure to offer affection, stimulation, and quiet time, based on the pet’s temperament and respecting the pet’s body language. Regularly clean bowls, bedding, and litter boxes; monitor for illness or injury and sudden changes in temperament. I also make sure to stay in touch with the client—send updates, photos, and behavior notes.

About: I’ve spent my life around pets, growing up with dogs and cats and spending over 6 years as a dog sitter. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all personalities, including those who might be a little nervous or difficult. I have experience with senior pet care, providing a calm, supportive environment tailored to older dogs’ needs — including medication management, slow walks, and lots of gentle attention. With Pups I have plenty of playful energy for them! Pet care is an important part of my daily routine, and I always make sure to tailor it to the needs of each pet I look after. While my schedule varies, I prioritize my time to ensure the pets receive the attention, exercise, and companionship they need. Whether it’s walking, feeding, playtime, or just cuddling, I make sure to keep a balanced routine that keeps them happy and healthy. I also adjust based on any specific requests from pet owners to ensure their pets feel comfortable and well-cared for. When pet sitting at a client's home, I prioritize safety by following all their rules and routines. I create a comfortable environment, ensuring pets are secure, well-fed, and happy. I also keep the space tidy and respect any specific instructions given by the pet owner. To keep them updated, I send plenty of photos, giving them peace of mind while they’re away.

About: I love playing and going on walks with dogs and even just sitting with them and giving them the attention and company they need.

I work, but I’m more than willing to work something out to fit your schedule. I want to do my best to accommodate you and your pet's needs and ensure you have a most pleasant experience. If you have any questions feel free to message me any time. Thank you, hope to hear from you soon!! I work weekdays from 10:30-6:30 in office, I have a little bit of flex with that if anything comes up. I am willing to discuss what schedule works best for you! When I’m over at the owners home I always make sure to meet with you or just talk to you in depth about where everything is kept, what routine your dog has, etc. I want to make sure they are as comfortable as possible and I maintain your lovely home! Safety is also incredibly important to me, so I always do a walk around before I leave making sure everything is locked and secure!

I get to smother other people’s pets in love and cuddles and then give them back to you, tails wagging! I love being surrounded by fur babies of all different breeds, ages & personalities & I can’t wait to meet yours!

About: Hello pets and pet parents! Congrats on finding a caring and responsible sitter (me!) so you can be at ease on your adventures or time in need. I was a go-to sitter for friends and family back home in Chicago and took care of family pets growing up. I'm active and love to walk and be outdoors gardening or reading a book. I have experience with reactive dogs, pills, and special diets and great communication skills to update you on the wellbeing of your fur baby. I love to hit up the nearby hikes and the local park. I work from home, so I have a flexible schedule for walks and play. I usually go on hikes on the weekend and would love some company. I can provide three walks a day, I am tidy in my home or yours. I currently have no pets of my own, so I'm able to give full attention to your pets. Our outside area is mostly paved, but it is gated and we are the only residents on the property.

“Hannah was extremely communicative and consistent in her care of my dog Paddington. It was my first time leaving him for an extended period and I was apprehensive, but Paddy adored her! I would absolutely recommend her going forward!”
