Dog Sitting Cicero

“Jessica was wonderful. She was able to come on short notice, and still made time to visit ahead of time to get acquainted with our shy pup (and us). She is prompt, reliable, and easily made friends with Doxie. We would definitely ask her back for future needs.”

Michael N.

“Yesenia is amazing. This is our first time leaving our cat after we got her from the streets, so we're a bit reluctant, but Yesenia gave us updates every single time. We'll definitely ask Yesenia again next time”

Windy P.

“Michael was great with the cats. They both really liked him. He was very diligent - took lots of pictures and provided good updates. He was also very communicative, professional, and punctual. Can’t recommend him enough!”

About: What sets me apart is the level of patience, attention, and care I bring to every pet I watch. I have dogs of my own, including one I’ve had since I was in 5th grade, so caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. He is my priority, and I make sure he gets his daily walks, plenty of attention, and the care he deserves, specially since he is now a senior doggy. I also have a 2-year-old dog, so I’m experienced with younger, more energetic dogs as well. Having dogs at different stages of life has taught me how important consistency, exercise, patience, and companionship are for pets. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and always treat every pet like they’re my own. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel comfortable knowing their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for. I’m flexible with my schedule, I’m willing to make time out of my schedule to work with you and your needs, but afternoons are preferable for me! When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and sticking to their normal routine as much as possible. I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water at all times, get plenty of exercise and attention, and feel loved while their owners are away. For dogs, I provide daily walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, and lots of companionship. Since I have dogs of my own, including a senior dog and a younger 2-year-old dog, I understand how different each dog’s energy level and needs can be. I’m comfortable caring for both active dogs that need extra exercise and older dogs that may need a slower pace and more patience. In a client’s home, I always respect the pet’s routine and environment to help reduce stress and keep them comfortable. I also keep the home clean, follow all care instructions carefully, and provide regular updates and photos so owners know their pets are doing well. My goal is always to make pets feel cared for, relaxed, and happy while giving owners peace of mind.

“Chloe was absolutely amazing!! I had a good feeling about booking her and was not disappointed. Her communication left me with no worries helped alleviate any nervousness I had leaving my kitties. She probably communicated with me better than I did with her so really appreciated her follow-through and consistency. The updates were thorough and the photos she provided brought me joy and reassurance! They were also a great source of entertainment for my family who I was visiting. I could tell she gave great care and saw my cats really warmed up to her presence, so she was a great fit like I expected. I will definitely be reaching out to book her in the future- and you should, too! Thank you, Chloe! <3”

About: Had many pups in my life, I've said my goodbyes, however I still give back by taking care of yours. I know they mean lots and I know each and every one of them has a unique personality which I tend to. I am very adaptable to your pups needs and will understand them to the best of my ability to make sure they enjoy my company while you are gone 😁. Unless I am booked, I am available all 24 hours of the day. Always have the peace of mind that your pup is being cared for no matter the day or the time. I have 2 fenced-in yards, have most pet necessities in home, neighbors/house residents are very dog friendly. Very safe trustworthy environment for your pup to ensure your peace of mind for their boarding.

About: I've taken care of dogs since early childhood, my first dog's name was Macho. I've learned to be responsible, caring and dependable to ensure a loving growth from my pet. I've also been the go - to friend for caring for pets when a coworker decides to go on vacation. Whether your dog needs a quick walk, a little exercise, or some company while you're away, I'm certainly happy to help. I'm currently working part-time, so I have lots of free time over the weekend to offer care for your pet. I'm extremely lenient and if needed can come to a compromise to suit your needs as well! Being the eldest child I have lots of experience in remaining aware of my environments when out in public. I can affirm to you that safety is my utmost priority. Your pet will be treated as my own.

About: Hello! I love ALL animals & can't imagine life without them. I'm the go to pet sitter for friends & neighbors, & I have 2 cats & a pitty myself. My dog walking journey started here on Wag! in 2017 but I’ve worked with dogs & cats while fostering & volunteering at shelters before that. I also gained an insane amount of knowledge while I worked at a dog daycare/hotel for years where I eventually was promoted to a supervisor. I’m experienced with dogs of all ages, sizes, temperaments & quirks. Body language & reading animals easily is a humble gift of mine. I of course want you to find someone who’s the perfect fit, so even if you’re still exploring options plz reach out with any questions☺️ I have experience with both cats and dogs of all ages, breeds and temperaments. I became a supervisor at the doggy daycare so I have experience with medication administration. I am dog CPR certified & experienced with emergancy situations. But above all, I love all animals & love that caring for them gets to be my job! As far as pricing, please feel free to message me! I wish Rover aloud more specification for prices but my Rover prices all vary based on your needs. I am flexible! If you want a 20 min walk instead of a drop in visit, that’s okay with me! My prices all go based on time. So if you only need me to stop over x2 a day for a sitting, it would cost less. For walks, it also depends how many dogs. I can be a good fit if you need a last minute walk! I am currently accepting walks on breaks on my remote days and after work/weekends. If you’re looking for a reliable & trustworthy person to take care of your pets last minute, while you are out on the town, while you go meet up with family, stuck in traffic etc., feel free to message me! I always am focused on safety and security. I make sure keys are safe, that pets aren’t let out without checking all leashes and harnesses, & always make sure all doors are secure when coming in & out. If any of your pets have any allergies I need to be aware of, let me know. Regardless, I will never feed your pets anything without asking you first. Thank you so much for inquiring about my services! Even if you’re not certain you want to book with me yet, you are more then welcome to reach out with any questions. I of course want to be the perfect fit for you & your babies!

“Reshunda was responsive and timely. My pet can be timid at times but Reshunda made sure had eyes on her and that she was safe before ending the visit.”

About: I have cared for pets for over 5 years, providing love, exercise, and companionship. I am experienced in feeding, walking, bathing dogs and administering medications. Pet care is integrated into my daily routine with scheduled feeding, and playtime. I ensure they receive attention and care consistently, making their well-being a top priority and it's so easy when I work from home. I provide a loving environment, playtime, and adhere to feeding schedules, and I ensure their safety, comfort, and happiness because after all they are family. Please note my Home is in the 2nd floor so there's a good amount of stairs!

About: I'm intimately familiar with cats and their body language and have been taking care of my silly accident-prone orange boy for 6 years. For the past few years, I've taken care of multiple cats at a time, have rescued kittens, and house-sat for other cat owners. I know how to handle the crazy kitties that may love or hate strangers. I go to classes every weekday until 2:30pm, freeing up my entire afternoon to care for people's pets! I also have my own car, allowing me to travel more reliably. I brush, feed, water, and play with clients' pets while remaining respectful of their homes. I am a quick learner when it comes to understanding an animal's preferences, including sitting with them the entire time they eat to help them feel secure.

About: Experience with large/XL breeds, bully breeds, working/high energy breeds, reactive and senior pups. Happy to provide your pup with structured and/or lax sniff walkies. Expert in freesbie, fetchies & tug- I have a working breed at home so very familiar with their requirements. Experience with senior pups, familiar with medication distributing, slow/wagon walkies, and all the extra lovings required. I currently work a full time job with plenty of flexibility which includes working from home. I am able to provide walkies/check-ins Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. Weekends can be arranged upon requests ahead of time. At my house, walks and play time are typically structured and we always have a paw clean up routine when returning home. When someone is caring for my pet, I love to get photo updates as I’m sure all pet parents would. I have a good amount of experience with reactive/nervous pups and especially on walks so I’m aware of how to handle triggers. Attentive to outside factors- other dogs garbage/food on the floor, etc

About: I have had dogs ever since I was a kid, I had a high energy yellow lab before and now I have 2 pitbull mixes and one of them is deaf. I use to volunteer at PAWS Chicago a few years ago, so I have been trained with reading a dog’s body language, deescalation tactics, and dog safety measures! I currently am focusing on my education which is fully remote via online. So, my schedule is open unless otherwise stated in the calendar. You let me know what your beloved pet schedule is and I will include them into my schedule if I am not already booked. I have had my previous dog rusty since he was a puppy, so I have had first-hand experience with potting training, teaching them how to sit and stay, and have experience with high-energy dogs. I now have 2 pitbulls / mixed breeds. One since a puppy and the other since 2025 when she found us and ran at me from a alleyway. The alleyway dog "Joy" is deaf, so my experience includes dogs with little to no hearing. I will take your dog out on walks and give them all the pets and attention they want. If they want to play fetch outside, I will do that at a local dog park or in the yard, whatever you are most comfortable with.

About: My family has shown me a love for all animals my whole life! Pets are your family and deserve to be cared for as such I am a 24 year old cat mom of 2 and have many more family pets that we consider family, I often help foster cats are pets while my close one need, I usually bartend full time for income but was let go after 5 years and am now looking for something more flexible/consistent! Different animals require different approaches so I take my time to create boundaries and trust within my furry pets while also dominating when need be. I am a very alert and friendly person so no need to worry about your pets well being(:

About: Hi! I’m Ashley and I’ve been caring for pets full-time for 16 years and I LOVE the Ruff Life!! The two things that you want in a sitter are 1) Insurance and 2) EXPERIENCE!! I have cared for an array of species and hundreds of special needs pets. Every situation is unique! And must be treated as such. I started pet sitting in Portland, Oregon in 2008 and started the first Rockin’ Paws team in Little Rock, Arkansas in 2010. I’m just getting started here in the greater Chicago area! My rates are lower off of Rover. I’m not the cheapest, but I’m one of the best!! Let’s work together if we’re a good fit!! I pet-sit full time and as the owner of Rockin’ Paws, I also tend to some management responsibilities. I fill my time in between in the studio making monsters or training! I am very active and I do offer dog running sessions. I follow the caregiver’s instructions and adhere as strictly as possible to the pet care routine. And by mixing in yoga with the fur babies …everyone is calm and happy for the duration of my time with them.
