“They did an amazing job with my boys, and my boys loved them so much. They were super responsive and kept me updated throughout. I will definitely book them again in the future.”

“Arie has been a great sitter for my dog Millie. She is very responsive and truly cares for your pets, sharing fun moments and asking questions when they come up. I’m very grateful for Arie’s help when I have to travel for work, and I know my girl Millie loves when she comes to visit and play! ☺️”

About: I am a writer and artist by day and absolutely love animals! I'm looking to share my extra time caring for your furbabies! I have experience walking, feeding, monitoring, and caring for dogs (large-small, puppy-senior), reptiles, small animals (rabbits, guinea pigs, rats, hamsters, ferret etc.), I have my own pets including, two terrier mixed dogs, an American bull toad, and a free roam rabbit. I have cared for my family's dog as well. I am available during the weekdays, Monday-Friday mornings and afternoons. My weekends vary based on my availability but I can be flexible and discuss more in consultation. I have my own vehicle so I am able to check in and care for your pet, and help them at a moments notice in case of emergency's, I have a large fenced in yard at home that allows for plenty of space for your fur baby to explore, walk and play for a few hours.

“Nicole was so gracious to accommodate a last minute booking, so thankful for her! My dog Theo was absolutely thrilled to see her again.”

“If you are looking for a dog walker who will love your pups as much as you do, look no further than Syenna! Finding someone you trust completely with your home and pets can be nerve-wracking, but Syenna put all our worries to rest. Our two dogs, Cooper and Scuttle, are absolutely obsessed with her. She doesn’t just take them on routine walks—she gives them great exercise, keeps them safe, and never skips the most important part: the post-walk tummy rubs! The moment she arrives, Cooper and Scuttle start spinning with joy and literally flop at her feet. Syenna is reliable, punctual, professional, and deeply attentive to their individual personalities. Having her in our routine brings us so much peace of mind knowing our dogs are in the best possible hands. Cooper, Scuttle, and our entire family give her 10 out of 5 stars! Thank you, Syenna!”

“Nicole was very attentive and super communicative while we were away. The pets (dog + 2 cats) were well cared for and the house was just as we left it. We got plenty of pictures and videos that the kids enjoyed. Would 100% book again.”

About: I’ve had my maltipoo since 2020 and have taken care of dogs since then as well. I’m very organized and attentive to your animals needs! I just moved to Chicago so i have a lot of free time especially during the summer while i look for other jobs. I love having new energy around me at all times :) I have a very safe apartment complex with an enclosed backyard. Lots of toys for them as well to make them feel comfortable! I’m attentive and a very good listener to all of their needs

About: I have had a dog my whole life! I’m great with animals because I’m patient, caring, and responsible. I enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m attentive to their needs and always make sure they have proper food, exercise, attention, and care. I’m currently working Mondays and Thursdays so I am available everyday except for that. Normally I have a very flexible schedule and am available at any time. I have been a nanny for the last three years so i’m comfortable with caring for pets in homes. I will pick up after animal on walks (if walks are needed). Make sure everything is locked behind me, and follow any other instructions you may have.

About: I'm an interactive sitter that will care for your dog or cat like I did my own. I have over 5 yrs of personal experience caring for cats and had my 16yr old dog from puppy to passing. I also have experience with birds and small furry caged animals and fostered a guinea pig for over 4 months. I currently have flexible pickup/drop off times. I can walk dog(s) twice a day or just let them out in the yard if dog isnt active. I try my best to accommodate the feeding schedule the dog is already on. I have a secure outside play area but still check on dog or just stay and watch. As for sleeping or when I'm away arrangements, I have a large crate but don't require dogs that came together to be locked away if they get along. I also have secure room just for pets which can be seen in my pictures.

“Haley and Emphraim were incredible! We were nervous leaving for 3 weeks, but the daily updates of our happy dog gave us enormous peace of mind throughout. We (and our dog!) could not be happier working with them.”

Laura H.

“Katalina was great while watching our dog and cat! She was responsive and left our home spotless! Thank you for helping us get away for a few days… not easy to do with 3 kiddos these days. It was such a relief to not have to worry about the animals. I would def recommend her!”

About: I love all types of dogs. I’ve cared for dogs for years by watching family members’ pets/house sitting and helping care for my own family’s dogs. I treat every dog like they’re part of the family, making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I work full time Monday through Friday. Available evenings and weekends as it may fit with my life schedule. Depending on the distance, more visits may or may not be feasible. I try to stick with the dog’s normal routine, whether it includes walks or letting them out in your backyard. Also including feedings, giving medications, treat allowances, playtime, etc.

About: I’ve taken care of a variety of pets, from puppies, kittens, small dogs, large dogs and more. Senior dogs with medicinal needs are a breeze! I work remotely and have plenty of time to play with your pups and cats! I have two pups of my own who hang out with me and my partner all day! I have a fenced-in yard and two friendly pups who love to sun bathe. We love a game of tug or fetch and we love to snuggle.

About: I’ve worked with young kids and dogs for years. I babysit and petsit in people’s homes and I have trained my seven year old dog. I also have experience with cats and giving them space while letting them warm up to me. On weekdays I work full-time until 4pm and then I’m all free to play with your pets or feed them. Weekends I’m free all day to properly care for your pets. I have a fenced grass front yard and a 7 year old mini schnauzer if your pet is okay with socializing, but not necessary for house sitting or walking.

“Jorie was great with my anxious dog Bear! She was patient, calm, and gently assertive where needed and he felt very comfortable with her. He can be reactive with strangers and she handled him well. Bear fell into his normal routine quickly, and relaxed at home during the house sit.”

About: Hello! I work remotely, therefore I am always home. Your dog will not be left unattended. I also have a flexible cancellation policy. I know life can be crazy! I am the ultimate dog lover and will treat your dog like family. I keep my dog healthy with lots of snuggles and daily walks. Your dog will receive that same care that my Fur baby receives. I can also accommodate more than one pet; the more the merrier. You can call any time to check on your baby. I am always available to talk. I have a big fenced yard and a cozy home. Your dog will always be welcomed on my lap and couch. ❤️ Since I work from home full time I have lots of time to hang out with the dogs in my yard. They are like my little coworkers! I usually take the dogs on 2 walks a day but if you have a preference on more or less, I can do that. How do I ensure your dog is safe during their visit? I have a small friendly chihuahua. He loves making new friends and sharing his toys. My yard is treated monthly for fleas and ticks (All pet friendly treatments). The yard is secure with a tall fence and no gaps. My dog is up to date with his vaccines. Please let me know if your furbaby has a set schedule if not they will follow our routine. They get plenty of supervised play time and potty breaks throughout the day. I regularly vacuum and mop my house. All furniture also gets vacuumed daily. I use pet friendly flea prevention methods inside and outside my house. We get our house and yard professionally treated to avoid ticks and fleas. But I ask that you also keep your pet on flea preventatives. All dogs that come in must be vaccinated. Please do not bring your pup if they are showing any symptoms. (Runny stools, coughing, runny nose)

“I genuinely cannot say enough good things about Cornelia! She is incredibly communicative, always keeps me updated, and makes being away from home so much easier. My cat absolutely adores her (to the point where I’m starting to think he prefers her over me). Even my neighbor went out of her way to tell me how lovely she is! I’ve booked Cornelia twice now, and both times I’ve come home to a house that was somehow in better shape than when I left it. It’s the little things that really set her apart. She’s checked for street-cleaning signs, moved my car, brought in packages and kept me informed, and watered my plants. She’s incredibly thoughtful, reliable, and proactive, and genuinely cares about both my cat and my home. At this point, Cornelia feels more like family than a pet sitter. I honestly can’t imagine trusting anyone else with my cat and home, and she will absolutely be my go-to for every trip going forward. Could not recommend her more!”
