“Kelera is so awesome!!! So friendly, professional, and helpful. Not only did she take care of the basics for our kitties while we were gone but she went above and beyond to help them get comfortable around her and communicate how they were doing. Excellent service, communication, and care! Thank you again Kelera, we will be in touch again soon 🙂”

About: I grew up with dogs - my Afghan, Kesha, was my first best friend and how I learned to braid (lol). I've cared for Rottweilers, Pit Bulls, Cockers, and Min Pins. I've dog-sat and cat-sat for family and neighbors for years, and now my daughters and I are ready to open our peaceful home and fenced yard to pets needing love while their people are away. Our house has a crate, a basement space, and plenty of tail-wagging energy. Dogs aren't just welcome here, they're remembered forever. I'm currently home during the day with a very flexible schedule. I have plenty of time, space, and love to offer pets who need calm, consistent care while their owners are away. Pet care fits easily into my routine and brings so much joy into our home. I approach every client's home with the same respect. I would want someone to have in mine. I've worked in private homes as a section 8 inspector, a home care aide, and an insurance rep, so I'm comfortable operating professionally in someone else's space. I follow all house rules, keep things clean, and ensure pets feel safe and at ease while you're away. We live in a pet-friendly neighborhood. My daughters and I often take walks around the neighborhood, so any pet we care for will get the benefit of fresh air, familiar sights, and friendly energy. We have a peaceful, fenced yard, a crate if needed, and a quiet, unoccupied basement space for rest or separation when appropriate. I'm very aware of animal behavior, neighbor pets, and how to make pets feel safe and seen. This is a calm, kid-friendly, and pet-loving home.

“Keith was absolutely amazing! Snow has never been away from home or me before so I figured he would be a little skittish. He warmed right up to Keith! He sent pics and kept me informed. Would highly recommend him for all your furbaby needs!!!”


About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and care I bring to every pet I watch—whether it’s a playful puppy or a senior dog who needs extra TLC. I have experience with all ages and temperaments, including administering medication, handling senior mobility needs, and reinforcing basic training commands for puppies. I’m attentive, patient, and treat every pet like my own, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I also send regular updates and photos, so you always know your furry friend is in good hands! As an unemployed veteran currently pursuing my master’s degree, I have a very open and flexible schedule—making pet care a natural and fulfilling part of my daily routine. I genuinely love animals and find joy in spending quality time with them, whether it’s going on walks, playing, or providing calm companionship. My background has taught me discipline, responsibility, and attention to detail, which I bring into every pet-sitting experience. Since my schedule is so open, I’m able to give pets the time, care, and attention they deserve—without rushing or distractions. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s, safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always take time to understand each pet’s routine, preferences, and any special needs to create a calm, familiar environment. In my home, I keep the space clean, secure, and pet-friendly—free of hazards and full of cozy spots to relax. When in a client’s home, I’m respectful, tidy, and follow all instructions closely to maintain consistency for your pet. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away.

About: Hi there! I'm Karenza, a devoted cat owner with a huge heart for dogs. While I can't give a furry friend a full-time home right now, I'd love to be their temporary best friend! I'm available for walks, playtime, and loving house visits. I have experience caring for dogs through babysitting for friends and family. Animals are my passion, and I dream of one day owning a farm to rescue and care for retired farm animals. Let's create some paw-some memories together! My schedule is pretty open and I am available daily. I am okay with morning walks or morning feedings with play time. I look forward to hanging out. I do have a cat and would prefer for our pets to meet before we try boarding. I want to make sure they will be able to get along.

About: I have worked with animals in various roles throughout the years, from working in a doggy daycare, to volunteering and fostering with various rescue organizations (OTAT, RWAR). I am experienced in senior pet care, administering medication, and some obedience training. I have a soft spot for brachycephalic breeds, and I owned and raised a Boston Terrier rescue dog for 12 years (RIP Batman 2009-2023). I currently own a mellow and submissive lab/husky mix, Henry, and a Maine Coon/Domestic Medium Hair cat, Tater Tot. Both get along with other animals. I am currently not working a full time “normal” job, so I have plenty of time to walk and babysit your furry friends. I am available for on-demand walks in the city limits of Chicago and south suburbs. For North and Northwest Suburbs, I can be flexible with enou I own a historic Victorian row home; it is 3 stories plus a basement and 2600 sq ft. My home is in the heart of the Historic Pullman District, on National Park Service land. My neighborhood is VERY safe, and my home is also down the street from the 005 District Police Station. My home has plenty of room to spare for your fur children. Not only that, I also have a 6 ft fully fenced yard. There is a dog park 3 blocks from my home, and I am in close proximity to several Forest Preserves. If baths are requested, bath lovers can enjoy baths in a jacuzzi tub, and bath tolerators will be bathed in a walk in shower with a double rainfall showerhead, and a handheld shower head for the hard to reach spots. I can offer pickup and dropoff for those without a car or time to spare, and dogs will be transported in a seatbelt for safety.

About: With over 20 years of dedicated pet care experience, I provide compassionate and reliable services tailored to each pet’s unique needs. Whether it’s daily walks, administering medication, or offering overnight stays, I ensure your fur love bugs receive the utmost care and attention. My commitment to building trusting relationships with both pets and their owners has been the cornerstone of my long-standing career in pet sitting. As a dedicated pet sitter, I structure my daily and weekly schedule to ensure I am highly available and responsive to the needs of both pets and their owners. Caring for pets in their owners’ homes requires a combination of attentiveness, respect, and adherence to established routines to ensure the well-being of the animals and the security of the home.

About: We have always had pets growing up. Both cats and dogs. I've had a pit bull in my early teens and had also adopted a 10yr old senior dog. I have experience giving my senior medicine and being extra gentle when it is needed. I currently have a reactive German Shepherd so if you're looking for someone to watch your big dog that pulls a lot, I have tons of experience and am strong enough to hold him or her. Basically I have had experience with animals in different stages of their life. Im still learning as Odin has training classes and I use what I learn to help with other pets. I've watched pets for friends and family in the past and have done drop in visits for years now. I am able to travel further distances if you aren't able to find someone local just send a message. I do work full-time so I can come before or after work through out the week. I'm off two days out of the week and if you would like to schedule a weekly walk schedule or drop in visit I will work closely with you to make my schedule accommodating for your pet. Ex. If you would like a certain day or if the week for me to walk and visit your dog I can request those days off if far enough in advance. Currently I am not doing overnight visits or day care but it's important to keep pets on their original schedule. For drop-in visits and walks, I think it would be best to stick to their original route and if they don't yet have one, a walk with a nice game of fetch is usually good enough to tire them out a bit. I will always send pictures when your pet and I are on our adventures together.

About: I’ve taken care of multiple dogs in my life including puppies.

Ariel R.
“Ariel is by far a very reliable person. She has watched my Dog numerous of times when I have gone out of town. My dog loves her and always greets her with furry kisses.

Danielle R.
“Danielle is the best sitter I've ever had. She not only cares for my 13 year old dog Snow but treats him with the senior care he needs. She make sure he gets his afternoon arthritis pills he needs and she always follows instructions of where he can and can't go outside so he doesn't trip of hurt himself. She is always on time, and dependable. Because she knows how to care for senior dogs I only trust Danielle to take care of Snow. With her vet tech background, I trust her judgment if at any day something happens with Snow and she recommends he needs to go to the vet asap. Thank you Danielle!!! A+++”

“Jasmine took care of my two fairly temperamental pit bulls with excellent care, and I’d recommend her to anyone! She knew of Clouds allergies and did her best to follow suit with what was best for her. She took both my dogs in and walked them separately to avoid conflicts with any other animals because Reign is animal aggressive. I will have her watch them again!”
