“Simba ( American bully mix) and Kekas ( yorkie) had their first walk with Natalie a week ago and it went really good. Her experience with dogs is notable. I have a large and small breed dogs and she handled them very well. Simba is a 60 pounds puppy and I am super impressed how she handled his excitement and reinforce his training. Looking forward to many walks and drop ins. Thanks Natalie 😊💜”
About: We have over 25 years experience raising our Labs, Rottweiler's and now our 2 year Chi-wienner dog, Ollie. I'll come to your place and care for the kids or bring them to me and they can play with Ollie. Walks, playtime and feedings are all good. It's no problem if they need their meds or other care. Your pets will be safe, loved, happy and well cared for, giving you peace of mind while you are at work or traveling. We currently live in a 1st floor 2 bedroom condo in Crystal Lake, Illinois. There are other dogs here and your pet could make other friends. While we focus on smaller dogs, let me know if you have a Rottie; we can consider them on a case by case basis. We raised four and have a special place for them in our hearts. Pet care is my only job so I spend lots of time with the dogs. I feed at 8am and 5:30pm. Walks are four times a day and my husband has them outside when it's sunny. I treat client dogs as if they are mine. They will spend the day with Ollie and I. My husband and I love dogs and to us they're family, including yours. It's my only job. My husband assists me and is here five days a week and every evening. All dogs are given very personalized attention. Weather permitting, my husband and I will have them outside throughout the day. Otherwise, indoor lounging is the order of the day. We feed twice a day, plus treats for all good boys and girls.
“Had the opportunity to have Jaime watch my dog overnight after using Jaime as a walker. I can tell you we couldn't be more pleased after having Ernie spend 3 nights at Jaime's house.”
“Ally came to my rescue! I am down with the flu and no way I could walk Gavin, and he needs his walk every day. She came last minute yesterday and again today, Gavin looked forward to seeing Ally today again😊. Thanks, Ally!!”

About: It all started when I was 5 and my sister and I convinced our animal loving parents to add to our family, we got a golden retriever puppy and a kitten in the same year. I have never lived a day without a pet in 35 years! I have open availability. I have 2 smaller dogs and a parrot. I live in a nice, quiet neighborhood perfect for walking furry friends. Ricky and Lucy (cavapoos) love a good slumber party :) I do not have a fenced in yard. My pups know the perimeters. I do take leashed potty breaks and walks with pup visitors. I am familiar with "runners" and an capable of making sure that doesn't happen!
About: I have been a pet owner since I brought my first dog home at 12yo and told my parents "they said we could keep her overnight to see if we liked her. We currently have three dogs, and my roommate has two. I truly believe that people don't deserve dogs, they are the best! I decided to take a break from working full time, and this is my only job right now. Coming from working 12 hours a days, I understand the guilt that come along with that for pet parents. I'm happy to step in where you can't! I'm used to working with an array of dogs, big and small along with those that have special needs, like my own. I will take whatever precautions necessary, and follow all owner guidelines.
About: I’ve had animals my whole life and love interacting with them and spending my time with them! Whether that’s just sitting around or being outside playing/walking! I’m very much an animal person! I work full time but 12 hour shifts so I only work 3 days a week. My work schedule is 7AM-7:30PM. I can wake up early to let them out and feed them and can take care of them when I get home but on my days off my attention goes to them when needed! I make sure I listen to exactly when and how the pets need to be cared for. I don’t over push the walks or the play time. I make sure if I am staying in the clients house that I keep it clean and listen to their rules and expectation for me staying. I also make sure I communicate often and keep up with updates to the clients.
“I highly recommend Katie! Our big doggie loves his walks with her and of course the belly rubs. :) Katie is personable, trustworthy and dependable. Definitely a five-star sitter!”
“Brian did an outstanding job taking care of our “family member” Gage. He was able to follow all the directions (believe me they are pretty complicated) we had provided and did not miss a beat. Great communication as well. Will definitely use Brian again.”
About: I’ve taken care of an age range from puppy to senior. Raised my own dog from newborn to a year old in a fostering situation. But have also walked neighbors dogs as well. I’m currently a sophomore in college taking courses over summer time. So with this different format of work I’ll be able to help out and also focus on school. For drop-ins, I am comfortable with fenced & unfenced with leash. I am comfortable with playing, feeding, administering oral/ear medicine if needed, and taking for walks.

Holly H.
“I can't recommend Holly enough! She is absolutely the best with my little dog, Max. From the very first moment, it was clear that she treats him like her own. Max immediately became a part of her family, and I could see how much care and attention she gave him. Whether it was going on walks, playing his favorite games, or just cuddling on the couch, Holly always made sure he was comfortable and happy. It's such a relief knowing that Max is in such loving hands when I’m away. Holly’s genuine love for animals shines through in everything she does, and I truly feel like he’s not just being cared for, but also loved and cherished. If you’re looking for a reliable, compassionate, and trustworthy pet sitter, Holly is definitely the one you can count on!”
