Ellie was amazing! She truly cared about Luna's wellbeing while I was out of town. She took away my worries and gave me updates on her visits with Luna. Will definitely trust her with my fur baby again.

She is amazing and very professional she always responds very quickly, and if there are any come clicks in the timing that you need she’s always willing to schedule around it. Also, she is very interactive with you and let you know everything that’s going on with your animal so you never feel left out or you have to worry. I have booked several times in one week because the service is amazing

Rebecca is amazing! I had never taken a trip since I got my cat Oscar. He has health issues so I was even more concerned. But after the first day she came to watch him I felt so much better! I had her visit twice a day and she was great with him as well as she gave him his medication no problem. After every visit she sent a report card with his habits and also food consumption plus pictures of him. She covers it all and he absolutely loved her. She also kept my place neat and clean. highly suggest Rebecca and will definitely use her again. Awesome experience thank you Rebecca.

Corinne has been absolutely amazing with my dog, Xena, a 60lb Pitbull. Every time I leave Xena in her care, I have complete peace of mind. Corinne treats Xena as if she were her own, ensuring she's not just looked after but truly cared for. I never have to worry when Xena is with Corinne—she’s simply the best!

About: My wife and I have always had dogs. As children, we both grew up with small dogs. Since we've been married, we have always had BIG dogs. Six years ago, we had to put our rottweiler, Murphy, down due to illness. We do not want to rush into getting another dog, but we are ready to dog sit for the right dog. My wife and I are teachers, so we have all summer off to dedicate to your dog. We also have a small fenced in yard and live near a forest preserve where we can go for daily walks. Whether its for a few hours or an extended stay, we are ready to meet you and your dogs' needs. And, we only book one family's dog(s) at a time.

About: I have had Guinea pigs, cats, dogs, and fish for pets over the years. I currently have two small dogs of my own! I have experience with dog walking, overnights for dogs and cats, and am comfortable administering most medications. I love animals of all sizes and have no problem going for long walks, playing, and giving lots of pets. I am reliable and will always keep you up to date on how your pet is doing. I will always do my best to allow for schedule changes and would like to tailor things around your needs. I have a car and also have no problem taking public transportation. Please reach out if you are looking for an animal lover who will treat your animal with care, fun, and lots of love! I currently work full time from 7am-5pm M-F and am available anytime outside of those hours. I will do my best to be flexible around you! I have my own dogs, who are friendly to other animals. We don't have any restrictions, but this is pending the dog's behavior and comfort.

I know how to properly care for and play with your dogs. With a part time job, I have a solid amount of time to help care for your dog. From day-to-day care, to extended trips, I can make sure your dog is safely cared for. I’m totally experienced in pet care. With two dogs of my own, I know how to care for them and keep them happy. I’ve always been comfortable around any size dog and I’m ready to help with anything they need
