Dog Sitting Cudahy

About: I have had dogs my whole life, have helped train family pets, and am certified as a Comfort Dog handler. I have watched dogs from the wee size of a Chihuahua to big fluffy Newfoundlands. I love using patience and kindness to ensure your pups safety and well-being. I agrew up with the high energy of Border Collies, both young and older. I have dogsat at someone's house up to 5 dogs at a time, with varying food needs and medications. I try my best to be flexible and up for anything you need to ensure your furry friend is taken care of the same way I would care for my own. From walks, to watching them in my home, I am here to help you remain confident in your dog's care. For boarding, I do have two dogs that live in residence and would be available for a meet and greet prior to booking. I work a hybrid schedule, so some days I am fully working from home and other days I am in the office and usually pop home in the early afternoon to let my dogs out and finish the day working from home. Dogs get fed before I start work and dinner when I finish. If I work from home I usually take a break outside at some point to play with the pups and after work we can do walks or dog park or hanging out in the yard. I have a fenced yard and two other pups in the home who are relatively chill. Dogs are allowed on the furniture and get lots of snuggles. My own dogs are crate-trained but rarely use them. They are often left on the living room couch when I leave, with a baby gate keeping them in. Can use crates if needed, I own a size small and a size large. My dogs are 25 and 12 pounds. The smaller of the two is a rescue and is extremely chill and friendly to all other dogs. The bigger dog can be sensitive with other dogs sniffing his butt but the most he does is bark at them to move away. He usually minds his own space and doesn't play with other dogs much but also doesn't bother them.

About: I've been around dogs my entire life — in 28 years, there have only been 7 days I've lived without one! I grew up in a home with five dogs, including four Bernese Mountain Dogs and a Sheltie. My family also responsibly bred Berners and Shelties, and I grew up around training, proper care, and learning to understand each dog's individual personality. Today, my own dog is still a huge part of my life. I also prepare homemade food for my dog and have learned a lot through that experience about paying attention to ingredients, sensitivities, age, energy levels, and individual needs. If your dog has a unique routine, dietary preferences, or special considerations, I'm happy to listen and follow the routine you've established for them. I'm comfortable with dogs of different ages, personalities, routines, and needs, and I believe patience and consistency go a long way. Most importantly, I know how hard it can be to leave your dog with someone else. I treat every dog like they're part of the family — with plenty of attention, patience, playtime, and care while you're away. 🐾 Pets are already a big part of my everyday life. I have always had dogs and currently have three cats of my own, so feeding, walks, playtime, cleaning, and keeping up with their routines are naturally part of my day. I’m also intentional about making time for the pets I care for. I’d rather give a pet my full attention than simply “check a box” and leave. I’m happy to work around their normal routine and give them the consistency they’re used to while their family is away. 🐾 I start by learning your pet’s normal routine — feeding times, walks, medications, favorite activities, boundaries, and anything else that helps them feel comfortable. Then I stick to those instructions as closely as possible. I believe good pet care is about paying attention to the little things. I watch for changes in appetite, energy, behavior, bathroom habits, or anything else that seems unusual, and I’ll communicate with you if I notice something worth knowing about. Most importantly, I want your pet to feel safe and comfortable, not like their routine has suddenly been turned upside down. Whether they want a long walk and lots of playtime or prefer to curl up somewhere quiet, I’ll meet them where they are. 🐶🐱

About: I have cared for and raised a number of pets over the years. Would love to be able to care for yours. Very loving home. I am self employed and able to make my own hours. I would be able to give your pet all the time and attention he/she needs. I would care for only one dog at a time so I can give them my sole attention. I do have a 8 year old cat but he has been raised around dogs his whole life. I lost my 12 year old Doberman back in April of last year. I cared for him from pup on up to his very last days. I am very patient and loving with animals as I have always had a pet in my home. I love going on walks and live close to the lake which has wonderful walking trails. Your pet would get plenty of love, attention and exercise 😊

“Courtney was absolutely wonderful! She watched my cat Blue while I was gone and sent loads of adorable pictures and videos daily and kept me updated on how Blue was doing. She took the extra time to play with him and brush him, and handled giving him his ear drops and medication fantastically!! I definitely recommend Courtney and look forward to continuing to work with her for all my pet sitting needs :)”

“Lauren was absolutely amazing. She was adaptive to our animals. This was my first rover experience and I wouldn’t think twice of using the service again; hoping for Lauren. She was amazing, responsive and professional!”

“Kim was fantastic. Our cat is known to hide from strangers and previous cat sitters have gone a whole week without finding her but Kim looked for her everyday. We received pictures of our cat everyday and by day three Kim was able to pet her and feed her treats by hand, a huge thing with our cat!!!! We would definitely use Kim again.”

I absolutely love dogs and have taken care of them my whole life I work part time in the afternoons but am available most days and am always available in the mornings. I’m also available full time on the weekends I would make sure to take care of any safety precautions necessary to keep your pup or pups safe in your home while you are away!

About: I'm really new to this, but I've had dogs of different sizes all my life. Right now, I have a fussy French bulldog and a hyper Chihuahua that I raise with my wife. We walk our two dogs in the morning and in the evening right after work. Our walks are usually 25 minutes long. Our dogs are fed twice daily along with daily meds they require. We often go to the park near our house for daily walks. I have a small fenced in back yard with a privacy fence. It's enough room for small dogs or older dogs that aren't too active.

About: My fiance and I have dog sat for years together dealing with special needs situations any medication walks or clean up due to medical illness necessary. I am now branching on my own to sit solo and help anyone I can! Im currently looking for work so im available when and wherever necessary. Im easy to communicate with and Im Great with last minute scheduling changes I have my own Great Dane mix Gigi who’s the world to me, I take care of her food, medicine, and walks daily. I love her like my own child and I look to provide the same care, loving home environment, and safe space for any pup because that’s what would worry me most if I booked with someone😊

About: I've always had an affinity for dogs! Always wanted one of my own. I've helped tale care of family and neighbors dogs when I was 10 all the way until I was 18. I miss it and want to get back into it. I currently own a hamster, take care of him, take care of families pets when they are on vacation and often volunteer to help with my friends dogs when they are out of town I built a 3 story enclosure for my hamster to give him plenty of room to roam. I also am very active from main jobs with kids so I can provide high quality play with your beloved pets!

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities for years, and I truly treat every pet like family. What sets me apart is that I understand how important it is to pay attention to a dog’s individual needs and medical concerns. I have a French Bulldog who went through IVDD, so I take mobility and health issues very seriously and know how to create a safe environment for dogs that may need extra care. I’m best with friendly, family-oriented dogs, and when pets stay with me, they’ll get lots of attention, love, and supervision. I’m home most of the time, so your dog won’t be left alone for long and will have someone there to care for them throughout the day. I’m currently in school full-time at MATC in the Invasive Cardiovascular Technology program while also working part-time at Aurora Health Care. Because of my schedule, I keep my availability updated on my calendar so pet parents always know when I’m available! I genuinely love spending time with animals and make sure every pet gets lots of attention, playtime, walks, and care while you’re away. treat every pet like part of the family and always prioritize their safety and comfort. I have a crate available if needed, and because I own a French Bulldog with IVDD history, I also have ramps throughout my home for dogs that are at higher risk for spinal injuries. If your dog is food aggressive, I can pick up bowls after meals and separate pets during feeding times. I also pay close attention to every note and instruction you leave for me so your pet’s routine stays consistent. For dogs that are sensitive to noise or easily overstimulated, I can put toys away, create a calm environment, and even play soft classical music to help them relax or sleep comfortably.

“Sydney did a great job caring for our cats! Always left the litter box cleaned and made sure their automatic feeders were working as expected.”

About: Hi, I’m Brittany! I’m a lifelong animal lover, foster volunteer, and proud dog mom who understands how important it is to find someone you trust with your pet. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities, including: • Reactive and fearful dogs • Senior dogs • Dogs with medical needs • Multi-dog households • Newly adopted and foster dogs One of my own dogs is reactive and fear-based, so I understand that every dog is different. Some pups are ready to make a new friend immediately, while others need patience, consistency, and space to feel comfortable. I’m happy to meet your dog where they are. Whether I’m stopping by for a drop-in visit or taking your dog for a walk, my goal is to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, potty breaks, playtime, and of course, belly rubs if they’re interested. I’m comfortable administering medications and following detailed care instructions. The little things matter, and I always appreciate learning about your pet’s preferences, routines, quirks, and boundaries before we get started. My schedule is flexible, and I’m generally available for morning, evening, and weekend visits. I’ll always communicate clearly, send updates and photos, and care for your pet as if they were my own. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! My schedule is very flexible, allowing me to accommodate morning, midday, evening, and weekend visits. Whether you need a regular walker, drop-in visits, or occasional help, I’m happy to work with you to find a schedule that fits your pet’s needs. I’m committed to caring for your pet in the way that makes them feel most comfortable. I’ve cared for dogs with a wide range of routines, personalities, and needs, and I know how important it is to stick with what works best for them. Every pet is unique, and I always appreciate a heads-up about any quirks, preferences, or boundaries—those little details make all the difference. Routine is especially important when a new person enters a pet’s space, so I do my best to keep things calm, familiar, and stress-free. At home, my dogs are separated during meals and when given chews. I use gates or kennels when needed to provide structure, downtime, or simply give everyone a break. Otherwise, you’ll usually find them snuggled up on the couch or playing together, with plenty of belly rubs, of course.

“Jill was wonderful with our cat, River! She took great care of him while we were out of town. Would definitely use her in the future!”
