About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover who has been around pets my entire life. Caring for animals has always come naturally to me, and I've been dog sitting for ten years. During that time, I've cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. My experience includes daily walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, administering medications when needed, overnight stays, and extended care for a week or longer while families are away. I understand that every pet has their own routine, and I take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you're gone. Whether your dog needs an energetic walking buddy, a dependable sitter for a quick check-in, or someone to provide attentive care during a longer vacation, you can count on me. I treat every pet as if they were my own, providing plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and updates so you can have peace of mind knowing they're in good hands. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! I am currently enrolled in an online graduate program, so I am available at any time you will need care for your pet, any day, night, week, or weekend! Initial Consultation: Before the pet owner leaves, I arrange a meeting to get acquainted with the dog and discuss their routine, dietary needs, medical history, and any specific instructions or concerns the owner might have. Establish Routine: Dogs thrive on routine, so I maintain consistency with feeding times, walks, playtime, and rest periods to ensure they feel secure and settled. Exercise and Play: Regular exercise is vital for a dog's physical and mental well-being. I schedule daily walks, engaging games, and interactive toys to keep them active and entertained. Nutritious Meals: Following the owner's guidelines, I provide balanced and timely meals, ensuring the dog receives proper nutrition. I also monitor their water intake to keep them hydrated. Safe Environment: I dog-proof the indoor and outdoor areas to prevent accidents or injuries. Hazardous items are kept out of reach, and I supervise the dog closely, especially if they're exploring new surroundings.

“Sydney was great! Very friendly and willing to do all the tiny things our little guys needed! She sent us pictures and kept us updated on how they were doing as this was their first time with a sitter. We would highly recommend her for anyone and hope to use her services again. I'd rate higher if I could.”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs through walking and pet sitting since 2024, helping neighbors, friends, and family with everything from daily walks to overnight care. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities and always make sure they feel safe, exercised, and well cared for. In addition to pet care, I’ve been babysitting for about 5 years, which has made me very responsible, patient, and reliable. I’m used to being trusted in others’ homes and keeping a consistent routine. I treat every pet like my own and always make sure to provide updates and photos so you feel confident while you’re away. I have a very flexible schedule this summer, which allows me to give your pet lots of attention and care throughout the day. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting on both weekdays and weekends. I can adjust to your pet’s routine and make sure they get the time, exercise, and consistency they’re used to. I always prioritize safety, trust, and making pets feel comfortable in their environment. I carefully follow any instructions you provide, including feeding schedules, walking routines, and any special needs. I’m respectful of your home and make sure everything is kept clean and secure. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident and at ease while you’re away.

“I wanted someone to watch our dog in our own home and I was so happy to find Ann. Ann did a great job with my senior dog. She texted and sent photos while I was gone. Ann was also very neat and clean and left our home just as it was. I will definitely use her again!”

“Jordan was great with the whole crew of pups, cats, and our ferret. She gave daily updates with pics of them enjoying their activities and their time with her. She also gave ear drops to one of our pups on short notice when he got an ear infection the day before our trip. We appreciated it so much and his ear looks great now. She left the house tidy for us and brought in a package and our trash bins which was also appreciated. We would definitely recommend her as we felt a peace of mind with her there and the crew was relaxed and happy when we got home.”

About: I enjoy meeting new clients and dogs everyday! Training puppies/ dogs who need help with training/dog language. I like to make sure the clients dog is happy, and enjoying my company. Making sure dogs sit for a treat, is a great way to make sure sure they know how to sit for a treat! It’s always good practice! It also is good with there food too! I work part time at a doggy daycare in carol stream. I enjoy meeting new clients/ dogs when they are brought into my work! I love to train newer puppies how to play, sit and stay! I have a fenced in yard and I enjoying spending some relaxing time with my pup! I get to play with him outside a lot. Sometime I will take him on a walk with me!

About: Animals have always been at the center of my life. I grew up on a farm, caring for dogs, cats, goats, sheep, and chickens, so reading animal behavior, staying calm under pressure and knowing when somethings off comes naturally to me. Over the years, I’ve trained my own dogs, worked with rescue animals, and volunteered with KARE, where I help rehabilitate, both wild and domestic animals. That experience has taught me how to handle pets of all temperament and backgrounds, including those who were shy, anxious, or still learning the ropes. I personally cared for dogs, cats, ferrets, chinchillas, sugar, gliders, hedgehogs, snakes, fish, turtles, parrots, and a wide variety of reptiles, so chances are, I’ve worked with a pet like yours before! I bring patience and consistency to every interaction, whether it’s a quick drop in or a longer house sit. What sets me apart is that I don’t just love animals, I understand them. Your pet isn’t just a booking to me, they’re a living creature who deserves calm, attentive care from someone who genuinely knows what they’re doing. i’m generally available weekday mornings, weekday evenings, and weekends. My schedule varies week to week, so I keep my calendar updated in real time. If you don’t see any availability that works, feel free to reach out as my schedule sometimes opens up with short notice! when I’m in your home, my priority is keeping your pet safe and as close to their normal routine as possible. I follow your KARE instructions closely, do a quick safety check on arrival, and reach out immediately if anything seems off. You’ll get photo updates every visit so you can see your pet is happy and well cared for.

“I booked Megan for a second time. This time was for a long weekend trip and she was again amazing with my pup. Stuck to his walk and food schedule. Included photos of my pup while I was away. Communication was strong and I didn’t have to worry about anything while on vacation. 100% recommend!”
