“I would recommend Kassia to anyone looking for a reliable, professional dog sitter. She was communicative, met with us a couple of days before the actual sit, and accommodated our early 6 a.m. drop-off that we needed (which happened to be on Daylight Savings as well). Moreover, our dog was excited when we dropped him off (always a good sign to us), and was tired when we got home.”

About: Hey everyone! I just moved to Chicagoland and started working remotely and living in a house with a fenced yard. I’ve had my pup Camden since 2017 and we’ve had some pretty awesome adventures together over the years. Most of my friends have pups themselves and I’ve happily taken care of them in the past. I have experience with senior dogs and special needs dogs and am certainly not afraid of high energy dogs! The more energy and the more cuddles, the better:) I work remotely and have a fenced yard, allowing me to provide supervision pretty much the entire day. My own dog Camden is very dog friendly and would love any friend to play with, inside or outside. I have my own dog as well who loves meeting new friends. I would be happy to take our dogs on group walks or hikes, and have my own backyard for them to play whenever they want.
