About: Hi, I’m Jeff! I’ve been walking dogs since I was 13 and caring for big dogs since I was 22. After my family’s beloved big dog passed, I realized how much I missed having pups in my life, which led me to start walking and sitting dogs for others. Every dog I walk becomes like a brother or sister to me. I have three years of professional experience and a deep knowledge of the Oak Park area, ensuring safe, fun, and enriching walks. I pay close attention to each dog’s needs in real time, and I provide clear, timely updates so you know how your pup is doing, including any potential needs I notice. Whether it’s dog walking, sitting, or check-ins, your dog will be cared for with love, respect, and clear communication. I look forward to meeting your furry family member and giving them the care they deserve! I’m currently working part time, and have a few pups already on my schedule. I am available for early day walks (7:00am - 9:30am) all week, and Sunday from noon - 2:30pm. Your dog’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I only provide care at your home, ensuring your pup stays in their familiar environment where they feel secure and relaxed. Before I leave each visit, I make sure your dog is calm, has fresh water, and is settled. I double-check that all doors are locked, leashes and supplies are put away properly, and your home is secure. You can trust that your dog is safe, cared for, and happy while you’re away.

“Kyle was great to work with. He clearly prides himself on consistent communication, and he got along really well with our two cats and was a total pro at covering their needs, including administering meds. We got informative updates, good photos, and two happy healthy kitties at the door when we returned!”

“We had a great experience with Adriana. She was very thorough in her approach and made sure that she followed our usual care and feeding protocols accurately. Our cat is very shy with strangers, but she warmed up to Adriana just after a couple of days. Adriana provided us with detailed updates and photos after every visit. We felt that our kitty was in good hands.”

“We were very happy with Janiyah! They did a great job taking care of all four of our cats while we were away. Janiyah followed all of our directions, shared updates, photos, and videos with us daily, and made sure to check in with us when they had any questions or concerns. They were very caring and affectionate to all our cats, and we really appreciated their services. Our cats were well taken care of, and we would happily book her again!”

Basil D.

“Jazmin did a spectacular job with our shy little Houdini. Never have I seen him so calm and happy on our return. Jazimin was quick to respond to questions and I appreciated her attention to small details like no shoes in our house. Thanks so much!”

Ron C.

“Tamara is awesome. She went above and beyond. Even though we have a pup who can be difficult/aggressive, he always looked so happy in the pictures and videos that we received. We would book with her again in a heartbeat.”

Vanessa C.

“Victor is awesome! He took great care of our cat Archie. We appreciated his seamless communication and loved how he included little blurbs and photos from each of his drop in visits. He was always on time for the visits and we could tell Archie was happy and healthy while we were on vacation. We highly recommend Victor!”

About: I Currently live in Humboldt Park, IL. I have a car to travel and potentially take your dog to dog parks. I will travel up to 5 miles around my surrounding area. I will FaceTime or take pictures of your dog/cat on every walk. I’m extremely engaging when it comes needy dogs. I love playing fetch or just relaxing with dogs. I’m willing to wash your dogs as well. I’m available during weekdays between 9am-6pm. I’m pretty flexible during the weekends. If your dog requires a strict diet, I will adhere to it. I have tough skin, so I’m willing to play with large dogs or dogs that like to nibble. Feel free text or call me. I also look after cats, hamsters and fish. I work from home and extremely flexible on when I can walk dogs during the week. Anytime between 9-6pm. Weekends are fairly flexible if you notify me in advance. I make sure to keep all doors secure after I enter the home and adhere to any requests of the owner when taking care of his/dog.

About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my ability to provide attentive, personalized care for pets of all ages and needs. I have experience working with puppies, including basic training reinforcement, leash manners, crate training, and maintaining consistent routines. I am also comfortable caring for senior pets and understand the importance of patience, medication schedules, mobility assistance, and close monitoring. My background in healthcare has strengthened my attention to detail, reliability, and ability to stay calm in unexpected situations. I treat every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. I am currently a PT student at UIC, I have a varying schedule Monday through Friday in the morning to early afternoon, but am open and flexible to working on creating the best schedule for your pup! Whether I am caring for pets in a client's home, my priority is providing a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment. I follow the pet's normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, exercise, and any special care instructions. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, affection, and mental stimulation while also respecting their individual personalities and comfort levels.

About: I have always been an animal lover and grew up with horses, dogs and cats. I’m comfortable with all kinds of animals and their needs. I have 1 small dog named Ben that I’ve had for 10 years so I understand the care that’s needed every day from walks to attention. I work a full time but flexible job that allows me to take breaks throughout the day for walks/care as needed and am predominately home but do leave for a few hours on some weekdays. I own my own house in Riverside with a big fenced in backyard. We keep everything put away and organized so there are no worries of curious noses getting in to anything

“Yanjun was very kind with my cat and very communicated with me, she acted very professional and lovely with the cat.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was a child. I love to treat everyone with respect and kindness and I will treat your babies the same! I am available in Chicago and the south suburbs. I am currently working full time! However, I have time to play with your pups on weekends when I’m off and weekdays when I’m off work! I love pups and I will take care of them like they are my own! I have a fenced yard and I will deliver service that can be trusted. You can check on your babies anytime and I will send pictures as well!

About: I unfortunately wasn’t allowed to have pets until I was older. I adopted my first pet (a cat) at 19 and she’s still with me! With the addition of 5 other cats as well since my family moved in with me😭. Although 2 of those cats are technically not mine, but one of family members, I still care for them all the same. I have also fostered kittens before and helped potty train them as well as bottle fed them. I have some experience giving medication to my cats for a short time; no long term medications as of now. —————————————————— I have pet sit for my friends whom are mostly fellow cat owners. For them, they usually just ask me to drop by during the day or evening to feed and change their litter and spend some time around them. I’ve taken care of my friends dog who doesn’t go on walks, so I would let her out in my friends yard to use the bathroom and then she’d come right back in to lay on the couch. I have several family members that are dog owners and I’ve been around them playing with them and occasionally went on walks with them or helped feeding them. But I’ve never officially taken care of them with out the owners being there. ——————————————— Although I am more of a cat person, I do get along with dogs! With cats I have 6 or so years of experience and with dogs I have about 2 years of experience. When visiting your home, I will take care of your home and leave things as they were!! If there any instructions you would like for me to follow, I will gladly read them, whether that’s for the fur babies or the house itself! I’m currently working part time so my schedule is pretty flexible and since my family currently lives with me they help take care of my own cats if I leave town. I typically work Wednesday and Friday afternoons and I’m free after 5:30pm, I do work weekends but I’m normally available after 4:00 pm and can stay overnight if needed. I’m normally off Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays so I can come by more during those days, but any day during the week I can fit in dropping by, specially in the afternoons! Since I currently live with family and 6 cats I understand most other pets might not immediately get along with 6 new animals, so I can always drop by or stay at your place to take care of your fur babies!

About: I'm experienced with all responsibilities and more importantly keeping pets company and engaged in playing. Zoomies are the best! I currently work from home and I’m available for boarding. I enjoy the company and don’t mind early drop offs. I have a fenced yard and lots of forest near me for walks. I have two beagles who are gentle and friendly who love play dates. I ask that pet parents keep the time they requested for drop off and pick up as I plan my work around these times. I am home most of the day and take several walks during the day with my dogs. I have a dog door that allows pets to go to back yard should they need to use bathroom or run out to play for those that are bigger I accommodate with an open door to the yard. I make sure guest dogs feel accompanied and cared for with the same attention their owners give them. This helps them settle in with familiar activities. I ask pet owners to share with me their pet's favorite game or toy for fetch, anything to make them feel comfortable.

About: Hello! I’m a recent college graduate and a devoted pet lover working from a home office. I offer reliable, flexible, and high-quality care for your furry family members, ensuring they feel loved, safe, and entertained while you are away. My Pet Care Experience My passion for animal care is rooted in a lifetime of experience with both dogs and cats. I am currently the proud owner of three cats with unique needs: Stomy (my rescued Orange Tabby) taught me patience, Sheba (my Highlander Lynx) keeps me active with high-energy play, and Atticus (my Siamese) taught me the importance of constant social engagement. In addition to my cats, I have extensive experience with dogs. Until recently, I was a dedicated owner to three rescued dogs who passed away peacefully last year. Caring for them, especially in their golden years, gave me deep experience with senior pet care, administering medication, and providing the gentle, compassionate support that older or shy animals need. Whether you have an energetic puppy or a slow-moving senior, I have the hands-on experience to make them feel safe and comfortable. Services & Activities I Provide When I visit your home, my goal is to keep your pet's routine consistent and stress-free. My drop-in visits and house-sitting services include: * Feeding & Hygiene: Adhering strictly to feeding schedules, refreshing water bowls, cleaning litter boxes, and picking up waste. * Enrichment & Exercise: For cats, this means interactive play to burn off energy. For dogs, this includes stimulating walks, fetch, or backyard playtime. * Safety & Home Care: As a pet owner, I am hyper-aware of "door dashers." I practice strict safety protocols when entering and exiting to prevent escapes. I also bring in mail, water plants, and ensure your home is left tidy and secure. * Updates: You will receive detailed updates and high-quality photos after every visit, so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. My Schedule & Availability Because I work remotely from my home office, my schedule is my biggest asset for your peace of mind. Unlike sitters with rigid 9-to-5 commutes, I have open flexibility throughout the day. * I can easily accommodate mid-day drop-ins, early mornings, or evening visits. * I am available for last-minute requests if your plans change. * I have the time to stay a little longer if your pet seems lonely or needs extra cuddles. I understand that inviting a sitter into your home requires a great deal of trust. I treat every pet I meet with the same affection I give my own crew, and I treat your home with the utmost respect. My schedule: FLEXIBLE I currently work remotely from my home office, providing me with open availability throughout the week. Because I am home-based, I am highly reliable and able to commit to specific time slots that suit your pet's feeding and medication schedule. I have the freedom to step away from my desk to ensure your pets get the quality time and attention they deserve, exactly when they need it. Safety begins the moment I unlock your door. As a cat dad to three active felines, I am hyper-aware of "door darters" and curious paws. I practice a strict "look down before you step" policy and always double-check that doors and windows are securely latched before leaving. inside the home, I keep a close eye on your cat’s health and mood, ensuring they are eating, using the litter box normally, and engaging comfortably. I also make sure to leave your home exactly as I found it—tidy, secure, and peaceful.

“Emily was incridble with our cats. She sent constant feedback and photo updates. It was a great relief to know that she was taking care of them in our own home. We will definitely be booking Emily again for our next vacation!”
