Pet Sitting Chicago Lawn

About: I take care of all animals in my care, mine or not. I never yell and I don't abuse any animal. I treat them as my own and I make sure that their tail wags every time that they see me. I work as a full time dog groomer and now that Rover has that service, I would like to build my own clientele. I work full time so unless I am doing a house sitting or the place is close by that I can do a fly by, I am not available in the morning most days except weekends. Your dog is never out of my sight unless I allow they are secure in a crate. Any thing that brings me concern will be immediately brought up with you and I will find any solution I can to help.

“Tara is fantastic! You can tell she really enjoys her job! She is timely, thorough and loving! Tara took great care of our big boy kitty Bela, she took time to get to know him, Bela loves to play and Tara was great playing with him, above and beyond what was expected! Tara is great with communicating and sending pictures, we felt very comfortable leaving Bela in her care. We will definitely request her again the next time we need care for Bela! We highly recommend Tara W!”

About: I've owned pets my whole life. I currently own two pets: a Coton de Tulear named Kitty and a sweet German Shepherd named Medusa. I volunteer at animal shelters, and work as a veterinarian assistant. I have experience with cats and dogs ranging from newborns to seniors. While I have my own pets, rest assured your baby will have my undivided attention while in my care. I interact with pet on a daily basis. I work as a vet assistant, and have my own pets. I have lots of free time throughout the week that I occassionally dedicate to my neighborhood animal shelters. My most open days are Wed - Fri. Pets will never be left unsupervised in my care. Only pets from one household will be walked at a time. When doing drop in visits I pay close attention to the instructions given by the pet owner, and will ensure the pet is comfortable before departing. I will provide pets access to water at all times, and pay close attention for any signs of discomfort. I always keep a first aid kit handy. I do not offer treats or foods that are approved of by the owner first. If I notice anything concerning I will notify the pet owner. I'll also provide cute update photos for the owners reassurance.

“I had such a great experience with my Lizbeth! She was reliable, caring, and kept me updated the entire time, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. What really stood out was her flexibility—when my flight got canceled, she kindly agreed to take care of my cat an extra day. That meant so much to me and truly showed her dedication and professionalism. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter!”

“Nikki is sweet, responsible, and exudes positive energy. My cats instantly gravitated to her, and I'm grateful for her flexibility and responsiveness. If you're looking for a local pet-sitter specializing in cats—look no further!”

About: I have taken care of my family and friends pets and loving them as if they were mine. I love and accept any dog no matter how big or small. I appreciate them being in my life and taking a care of them I’m currently a college student seeking a part-time flexible. During summer I’m available during any time from 10 am to 10 pm. After August it will be from 4 in the afternoon to 10 pm. If needed to stay longer we can talk and work things out for overnights or any time you need if I’m available. I always check if their bowl if full with water and check if they are comfortable. If they look energetic I walk them for almost 30 minutes to 1 hour and always bring them back to rest. Feed them only at the clients specific time and if there is no specific time I would feed it twice a day ( one meal at noon and one at 6-7 pm).

About: I provide reliable, attentive care tailored to each pet’s needs. I’m comfortable with puppies, senior pets, and different energy levels, and I always focus on making pets feel safe, happy, and loved. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages for peace of mind. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine as a nursing student because spending time with animals helps me stay active, reduce stress, and recharge mentally. Daily walks help me get my steps in, and being around dogs honestly makes even the busiest days better. I enjoy giving pets lots of attention, playtime, and care while keeping their routines consistent and owners updated. I grew up helping care for my mom’s dogs and now have a cat of my own who means everything to me. I also regularly care for my mom’s dogs when my family travels to Mexico, so I’m comfortable handling feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and daily routines independently. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I always focus on creating a safe, calm, and loving environment.

“Guillermina was great with my cats. She was able to visit everyday to feed, play and administer supplements. I recommend her for your visits.”

About: I have taken care of family pets my whole life, no pets are allowed in my household so I have taken every opportunity to interact with and care for animals outside of my home. I make sure to keep up with their needs while also providing them an enjoyable environment! I work from home so I am able to relocate wherever there is WiFi connection, the work isn’t too demanding so I am able to care for pets immediately. I work 8:00 am to 4:30 pm Monday through Friday and have 24/7 availability! I have an hour lunch break and am also available anytime after work and on weekends! I cannot have animals in my home so being in a clients home is best for me. I adhere to all instruction given by owners and follow the schedules set for the animal. I am open to entertaining and watching after the animal at all hours!

About: Hi! I’m a recent college grad in Chicago who loves dogs and spending time outside, going on walks, and getting to know each dog’s personality. I’ve taken classes on animal care and behavior, and I have hands-on experience with both my own pets and shelter animals—so I’m comfortable with all kinds of dogs, from high-energy to more laid-back. I’m patient, attentive, and adjust to what your dog needs. Whether that’s long walks, playtime, or just hanging out and keeping them company, I want them to feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. Working with shelter animals has taught me how to read body language and build trust, so I’m especially mindful of each dog’s boundaries and energy level. I’ll keep you updated so you always know how your dog is doing, and I’ll treat your home with care and respect. I’d love to help make your time away stress-free for both you and your dog 🐶💛 I work full-time, but I make pet care a priority in my weekly schedule. I’m typically available on weekends and can accommodate evening visits after work for check-ins or walks. I’m happy to coordinate a routine that ensures your pet receives consistent, reliable care throughout the week. I provide attentive, safety-focused care in every home I enter, with a strong emphasis on maintaining routine and minimizing stress for pets. I carefully follow all client instructions to ensure consistency in feeding, enrichment, and daily care. I keep the environment clean, calm, and secure at all times: monitoring doors, windows, and potential hazards while ensuring food, water, and litter areas are properly maintained. My background in animal care classes, shelter experience, and hands-on work with my own pets has trained me to recognize subtle changes in behavior and respond appropriately. I approach each pet with patience and awareness of their individual comfort level, especially those who may be shy or sensitive. I also pay close attention to behavior and body language so I can respond appropriately and keep pets safe and comfortable at all times. I treat every home with respect, keep communication open with updates, and make sure you feel confident your pet is in responsible, attentive care.

About: Hi there! I'm Maya. I'm a newbie to the pet-sitting scene however I've been around dogs my whole life. I also am a pet mom of 5 years to two dogs, named Millie and Matcha. I've raised and trained them up from 12 weeks old, and loved every minute of it! I've also fostered a few pups in the last two years and helped find them new homes as well! I am excited to start my journey sharing the love and care that I've garnered over the years with your baby and will do my best to treat them as my own. I'm a freelance creative currently going to school online to pursue a degree in Marketing, so my schedule is pretty open and can be adjusted based on your needs! I have experience with bathing, feeding, walking and paying with dogs and am happy to do all of the above when in your home for drop-in visits. I'm able to take care of any additional instructions you have such as medication distribution as well!

About: Se habla Español! Hi I'm Cris and I've been a long time pet lover! I'm currently a dog and cat groomer and I've been working with animals professionally for 6 years. I have 3 cats and a rescue greyhound that are my life. I genuinely love my job and I'm just trying to fill my free time with more animal friends! I am working full time currently so I'm mostly looking for either single day dog sitting jobs or recurring walks, but I'm flexible so I'm always willing to try to work things out! Due to my career I am dog CPR and first aid certified and I have extensive pet handling experience. I have a very dog friendly dog at home to keep dogs company and I have a fenced in backyard as well.

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up surrounded by dogs of all sizes and breeds, from a beloved Cocker Spaniel to two Giant Schnauzers and later a Pit Bull. Each one helped shape my love and understanding of animals and taught me how unique every pet’s personality can be. Today, I’m the proud owner of a French Bulldog who keeps me on my toes and a pet snake, giving me experience caring for both traditional and exotic pets. I’ve also spent time around cats through friends and family and am comfortable caring for feline companions as well. While attending Ball State University, I volunteered at local animal shelters, helping care for animals and supporting their daily needs. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, playful, or senior, I understand the importance of providing patience, attention, and loving care. I treat every animal as if they were my own and strive to make them feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Pet care is already a part of my daily routine, as I currently care for my own pets and understand the importance of consistency, attention, and reliability. I work as a State Farm agent in Chicago’s West Loop, and because it is a family-owned business that my family manages and operates daily, I have some flexibility within my schedule when needed. During the week, I am available for pet care before work, after work, and during my lunch break. Depending on the day and my workload, I may also have additional flexibility to accommodate specific care needs. On weekends, I typically have more availability and can provide extra time and attention for walks, drop-in visits, overnight care, and companionship. I am careful not to overbook myself because I believe every pet deserves quality care and attention. When I accept a booking, you can trust that I have the time and availability to provide dependable, attentive care and ensure your pet remains safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. At this time, I’m unable to offer boarding services in my home due to my own pets. However, I am happy to provide a variety of other services, including drop-in visits, dog walking, overnight stays, and personalized in-home pet care. My goal is to ensure your pets remain comfortable in their familiar environment while receiving the attention, companionship, and care they deserve. Whether your pet needs playtime, feeding, medication administration, exercise, or simply a reassuring presence while you’re away, I am committed to providing safe, reliable, and compassionate care tailored to their needs.

About: I have a 3 1/2 year old American pitbull terrier who is sassy! I’ve had her for almost 3 years now and we’ve come a very long way. I’ve loved taking care of her and understand as a single dog mom how hard it can be when it’s just you I am committed to daily walks, enrichment, and feeding for my own dog and I am happy to provide that for others when in need. I understand the stress of trying to find someone who is well suited to watch your pup so I’m happy to meet! I don’t offer services within my home but for my services in my clients home I will care for them as similarly as I can the way you do so that their routine isn’t disrupted too much

About: I’ve have taken care of pets before as I do have a dog myself and I have also looked over and cared for cats cause anytime family is away anytime I look over them. I’m currently in summer break from college and I been spending time with my dog and making sure he goes outside and I also have time to make appointments for him such as vet visits or showers. In my house we have a gate and we always the gate close so my dog doesn’t get out. I also have the a/c running most of the time so my dog could chill as summer is coming around the corner. I always make sure he has food and water.

About: I've had cats in my life since 2004. I've currently have 2 cats right now. I have experience with providing medication such as pills. Also I enjoy playing with cats and believe they should be played with. I like to keep things clean for them such as proving them with clean water and fresh cat litter boxes. I enjoy making them happy because it makes me happy. I currently am working full time Monday through Friday. I would have time available on some Friday nights and Saturday mornings. Occasionally I might be available on select Sundays. I can take care of your cats in your home, depending on how you want them to be in your home. If you want them to roam around in your home that's great. If you prefer then to be crated then that's ok too. What ever instructions you leave with me I respect that and can make it work.

About: I have been a dog lover for many years and had the privilege of taking care of a chihuahua and a pug throughout their lives. Being a pet owner taught me the importance of patience and paying attention to each dogs needs and personality. I understand that pets are family, and i know how important it is to find someone you can trust. Whether we’re going for a walk, playing, or just relaxing together, I’ll provide attentive and loving care every step of the way. I’m currently working part-time, which gives me flexibility to provide care to your pup after work during the weekends. I’m completely available on wednesdays and weekends. Your pets safely and comfort are my top priorities. I have a calm, secure environment with a fenced yard for supervised outdoor time. I currently do not have any animals so your animals can enjoy an stress-free environment. As for in-home visits, I follow all instructions closely to maintain their routine and ensure they feel secure and cared for in their home.

“I have 3 cats and they are like my babies. I love traveling so much but I struggled leaving my kittens. I wanted to be sure they were well taken care of. Dayana came to the rescue! She is very polite and completely reliable. She took great care of my cats. I returned home and saw my cats were happy as usual. Now I’m so happy that I found a perfect sitter for my kittens. Thank you so much, Dayana!”
