“Our kitties are medically complicated and high maintenance! A day before our big trip, we had to take one of our cats to the emergency vet unexpectedly…He had bladder stones and a UTI :( Flo approached the situation with confidence, patience, and compassion!!! So hard to leave a sick baby at home, but I felt at ease the entire trip knowing they were in SUCH GOOD HANDS. Pictures, detailed descriptions, follow-up questions, ability to give medication, VERY good communicator… Seriously, I can’t thank you enough. Will be reaching out again and again!!!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life. My best friend Murphy, and before that Cricket and Benji. I love dogs and cats, and I am quick to form bonds with them. Whether that be with friends/family, or my years taking care of the neighborhood pets while their families were out of town. I have plenty of experience with animals of all age groups and sizes. I have a special fondness for older doggies, and understand that they may require some extra care and love. My only schedule constraints are my full-time undergrad classes, but my classes are spaced out throughout the day. If we talk through a schedule beforehand I can almost always make it work. I’m very patient with dogs, and I understand that unfamiliar faces can be scary for them—especially when their parents are away. I give lots of love, and I am experienced with positive reinforcement training. I never get mad or upset, and I’ve learned that my emotions often influence theirs. Your pets are your heart, I completely understand that. I’ll treat them like the precious parts of your lives that they are.
About: For years, I've been an attentive caregiver of dogs. I started doing so for friends and family, then it became a fun occupation. Dogs are such a joy, and I love having them around. I've spent time with working dogs (GSD's), senior dogs (meds and special attention needed), anxious dogs, talkative, sassy little nuggets, high-energy hounds, and adorable, loving loaves. I like being outdoors and going for neighborhood walks, car rides, and hikes with doggos. It's a priority to keep dogs safe and help them adjust when their environment changes so if there are special treats or owner preferences, I welcome hearing the guidelines. I am open to learning how your dog prefers playtime, socializing, and getting exercise. ***Important: I do not accept bookings from new clients that are within 8 days of the request.*** I know each dog is different, and you want them to feel at ease and live as close to their routine as possible with me. I like to know what is best for your pet's temperament — whether they need to be crated, prefer to spend time with people, need rest, or a lot of exercise. I welcome any helpful information you can share to ensure their care (training, meds, etc.) is continuous.
“Raya was lovely and helped me out in a last minute need for a drop-in and medication for my cat. Easy to communicate with and did a great job. Definitely keeping her in mind for future needs!”
About: I grew up with a lot of pets and have done pet sitting and dog walking for the last 4 years. I have several regular families that I pet sit for and do regular dog walking. I am currently doing online classes to finish my college degree. I have a lot of free time to myself and can travel anywhere in the city to take care of your dogs. I take particular care to follow instructions for your dog, making sure to walk them and feed them at the right time. I also make sure your home is clean and well kept after I leave.
“Rylie was excellent, sent me lots of photos of my cats while I was away and even did a few extra tasks like taking out the trash after I forgot to the day before my trip. Really appreciate the attention to detail! Importantly my cats liked her and I came home to very happy kitties that had clearly received some good attention.”
“Camille was the best! We had to leave our cat for 5 days, and Camille was so kind to stop by twice per day to take care of him. With Camille, Gus was given an at-home vacation with daily food, treats, pets, and toys. We were kept in the loop at all times with about 20 photos and a detailed descriptions per each visit. She was so quick to respond to messages. We could tell Camille cared so much for our boy! We would absolutely recommend Camille. We may have to take another trip soon so Gus can be reunited with his new best friend!”
“I highly recommend Megan! She took excellent care of our cat while we were away and was great about everything - attentive to our pet, a great communicator, provided detailed notes and photos, and left everything in perfect order. Very grateful for her high quality care!”
About: I have been taking care of dogs and cats for years, including animals with unique health needs and senior animals. I'm comfortable handling animals of all personalities including high energy. I am happy to take them on long walks so they get all the activity they need. Your pet's well-being is my top priority, and I take their safety very seriously, whether in the home or out for a walk. I have lots of flexibility at the moment to help out with your pet on whatever schedule is best for you. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend :) I have a consistent schedule that allows me to be available for repeat visits and walks however best fits into you and your pets routines. I am a reliable and attentive pet sitter. I can provide updates as requested and be consistently present to ensure your pet is safe and taken care of.
“Ariel was wonderful and gave us total peace of mind while we were away taking care of our kitties. Will absolutely book her again when we travel and would recommend her for cat care! Thank you Ariel!!”
“Sarah showed up on time, was kind, patient, and attentive with my dog. Appreciated her communication and definitely plan to have her come again in the future!”
“I appreciate the last minute Request to walk Nitro.. you went over and beyond I feel with coming for a drop-in-turned walk and drop off to PetSmart for grooming, so I just wanna thank you for that. I couldn’t get off work to take him and I was sent off by someone, so appreciate ya and will be hitting you up again.”
“Nicole is a kind and lovely person. She was able to come early in the morning as requested. She was a thorough communicator and she even cleaned up a couple of messes! She was meeting my cats for the first time and tried hard to connect. I will definitely use her services again.”
About: I’m a life long animal lover who has had cats and dogs my whole life besides the last few years while I raised my twins. My kids are now in school and I’m looking to do drop-ins and walks during the school day (11am-3pm). I volunteered with cats at Evanston animal shelter for several years. I have done drop-ins for cats and dogs through the years as well. My last pet, Mina, was a feral cat who needed extra love and care but slowly came out of her shell and thrived. I have also walked and cared for my friends and extended family’s dogs. I am a stay at home mom, and my kids are now in full day school, so I have time to spend with your pets. I am available from 11-3pm all weekdays except Thursday. I like being active so am looking forward to walks. I currently have no pets, so look forward to caring for yours. I can do drop-in visits and walks for your pets during the day. I have done drop-ins and walks for friends and family members over the years so feel comfortable with a range of animals. My home is not available for boarding.
“Solange did any amazing job taking care of my cats while we were away! Solange was always punctual and stayed the whole allotted time and made sure to send lots of pictures so I knew they were okay. I would absolutely book Solange again!”
About: Please read all the way through ☺️ Hi there! I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and truly adore them. I currently have a playful little pup who loves having friends around, and we live just steps away from a great dog park! We’re out for walks at least three times a day, and your pup would be so loved and well cared for here. I also have two gentle, dog-loving teens who add even more love to the mix. I prefer smaller dogs since I’m on the petite side myself, and working from home means I can give your pup lots of attention and flexibility with your schedule. I’m happy to follow any training routines you’re working on and would love to help however I can. My goal is to make your dog feel safe, happy, and right at home. 🐶💛 A few small notes: • Pick-ups over 30 mins late: +$5 (every additional 30 mins = +$5) • Forgot food or pee pads? Just $5/day Can’t wait to meet your sweet fur baby! ✨🐾 Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine! I work from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide consistent care, attention, and love throughout the day. I take my own pup out for walks at least three times a day, and trips to the nearby dog park are part of our regular routine. Whether it’s feeding, playtime, or just cuddles, I genuinely enjoy making sure every pet in my care feels safe, happy, and loved—just like family. 🐾💛 In my home, I care for pets like they’re part of the family. I make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved from the moment they arrive. I keep a calm, cozy environment with plenty of playtime, potty breaks, and snuggles. I follow each owner’s specific instructions—whether that’s sticking to feeding schedules, following training routines, or keeping their pup on leash-only walks. I also check in with updates and photos, so you can feel at ease knowing your furry friend is in good hands. 💛🐾

Chris was an amazing caregiver for our cat, Darcy while we were out of town for a family wedding. She is an excellent communicator, and we really appreciated her updates and photos of our furry family member. Chris’ communication really put me at ease and made me feel confident that Darcy was in caring, capable hands. I would absolutely recommend Chris for your pet care needs, and I hope to be able to work with her again in the future!
It was comforting to know Luna was taking such good care of our cats and making their time with her fun, loving, and reassuring. Her daily reports were so entertaining and they reflected the true nature of our cats. She had to give one of our cats a daily pill. Sometimes this can be challenging. Luna quickly discovered the best method and approached the process with compassion for my cat’s fear. I will definitely call upon her every time I go out of town.
Melanie was very thorough and took care of Gert and gave her her meds. It was unfortunate that the vet gave us new food for Gert's tummy issues the literal night before Melanie came, and then the moment we left for our trip, Gert ate the whole four days of food by gettibg on top of the fridge for the first time somehow. I know that was confusing and frustrating for her, but we this was not something we could control. Gert has never, ever acted that way before, and we had to deal with in real time when she couldn't find the food. It was stressful. I was dealing with some tough family issues in real time, and i know having a slight change was stressful for Melanie, but we didn't envision Gert eating her food. Thanks again for caring for Gert
Jennifer is always great with our 12-year-old cat Neko. He is very loving but can be a stubborn or picky old man. She takes time to make sure that he has attention, his box is clean, that he has eaten his dinner, and then gets treats/wand toy as a bonus. This time she also took care of our new cat Clara, who can be very shy. Jen was patient with Clara, checked on her under the bed, and made sure she got some extra love and Churu treats. Per usual, she went above and beyond, providing frequent updates, cleaning, taking the garbage out, and making sure both cats were happy and well cared for. Always feel comfortable knowing they are in good hands!
Lauren was amazing with Nala and so communicative with me and my boyfriend. We had to coordinate a few last minute schedule changes and Lauren was always understanding! She is kind and considerate. It literally does not get any better. Book her for a walk or boarding, you will NOT REGRET IT! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Autumn was amazing! She took such great care of Maude and Cap’m while we were away and sent us tons of photos and updates every day, which gave us so much peace of mind. She was incredibly attentive and proactive, and it was clear from all the photos and updates that both cats were really comfortable with her and loved all the attention she gave them. We felt so much better knowing they were in such good hands while we were away. We would absolutely book with Autumn again and highly recommend her! 😊
