Pet Sitting Edison Park

“Aine was responsible and took wonderful care of our dog Max. We knew he was in great hands and didn’t have to worry. We will definitely hire Aine again! Kathryn G.”

“Nicholas did a great job looking after my cat. She was always very shy and he would make sure to find where she was which would sometimes take a bit longer as she found new hiding spots. He completed all tasks that I asked of him. He was always on time and very professional.”

“Emily is the best!! She went above and beyond watching our dog roscoe while we were out of the country :) it was such a relief to have great care while gone. We will definitely be rebooking with Emily!”

About: I live in Edison Park, but work in McCook/Chicago during the day/week or sometimes from home. I manage my time really well, so I can make anything early in the morning,/on my lunch break work- plus weekends or after work. I have always had dogs my entire life. I grew up with a chocolate lab mix, then when she passed away my family got a three legged black lab and a chesapeake bay retriever. Then, when I was in college, a chocolate lab climbed into my car and after months of trying to find his owners, I decided to keep him. Those puppies have since passed, but our family has 2 giant black labs currently. I’ve also had 4 Guinea Pigs who I loved dearly. I currently work from home part of the time and love four legged angels (sometimes 3, I had a 3 legged dog growing up). I am available in the early mornings, evenings and on the weekends consistently, but can work out weekday daytime availability with advanced notice. I make sure the animals all have the appropriate food/water setups at all times (per owners instructions depending on pet’s specific needs), as well as making sure the temperature is comfortable for the pet. I prioritize exercise and bathroom breaks for each pet. There is never a lack of social interaction when I am around. Pretty much, I view pets as family and think they deserve the best. If they have specific requirements, I will always follow whatever rules the owner requests and talk through any concerns before booking.

“Catherine took really great care of our dog. Left very excellent and detailed notes on the visits and also took great pictures and we felt very safe and secure that she was watching our family pet.”

“Elva was great with my dogs! She is professional, reliable, always on time, and truly cares about making sure my babies get the most out of their visit. I felt completely comfortable knowing they were in such good hands, and they were always happy and well cared for after spending time with her. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!”

“Katy is very responsive during the meet & greet process and while on home visits. Katy cared for my three dogs while I was on vacation, with multiple visits daily. Katy sent multiple pictures at each visit and always gave me an update on how they were doing and how it was going. I could tell from the photos that they were happy and well cared for. I came home to three happy, healthy pups and that means the world to me. I would happily have Katy care for my crew again and would definitely recommend her.”

“We found Sarah through a mutual dog walking friend and we’re so happy to be able to work with her! She’s so communicative and also so flexible with schedule. Highly recommend!”

About: My family on both sides have always had multiple pets that we care for/own. I have had my own dogs in the past but recently, I moved in with a relative and I care for her doggy. My neighbor works at an animal shelter. I will be volunteering there as soon as the school strike ends. Until then, I am caring for my niece. I am very excited to be back in Chicago. I grew up here and missed it so much when I lived in the Suburbs. Please consider me for your sitter/walker. I know how important it is to have a person you trust, when it comes to taking care of family members. Pets are family. I can't wait to start meeting new DOGS!!

“Katelyn took my appointment on very short notice and did an amazing job. She was very accommodating and kept me updated throughout the night while I was out of town at a wedding. I’m very new to leaving my dog with someone and Katelyn made the process very easy for me and did a great job keeping my mind at ease. My dog really liked her and had a great time. I highly recommend booking Katelyn”

“Best sitter ever! Helped our anxious dogs through a week of our absence and allowed my family and I to enjoy a vacation and family wedding with ease! Thank you SO much, Yazmin!”

About: As a proud pet owner myself, I know that our animals aren't just pets—they are cherished members of the family. I take immense pride and honor in providing the highest level of care, backed by decades of hands-on experience. My background includes over 15 years of experience working with German Shepherd/Sheep Herd dogs, understanding their unique loyalty, energy, and intelligence. Additionally, I have 28 years of dedicated experience caring for felines—both male and female indoor cats—giving me a deep understanding of their diverse personalities, needs, and behaviors. When your pets are with me, they will receive the same fierce love, respect, and attentive care that I give to my very own. My daily life revolves around my own vibrant pet family: one high-energy German Shepherd and three indoor cats. Managing this household has taught me the art of a perfect routine—balancing the physical and mental stimulation needed for intelligent herd breeds with the quiet, structured care that felines thrive on. From morning walks and puzzle toys for large breeds to meticulous litter box maintenance and separate feeding schedules for multiple cats, pet care is seamlessly integrated into my everyday routine. I know exactly what it takes to keep a multi-pet home safe, organized, and filled with love, and I am excited to bring that same dedicated, expert care to your beloved animals! As a dedicated pet provider, safety isn't just a checkbox for me—it is the foundation of how I manage my home and routine. I believe that a predictable, structured environment combined with purposeful engagement is key to keeping animals secure, happy, and stress-free. Secure & Supervised Environments: To ensure total safety, my cats remain strictly indoors at all times, protected from outside hazards. When out in the beauty of nature, dogs are strictly kept on a leash to guarantee full control and security. Confidence-Building Playtime: I know that cats thrive on mental stimulation just as much as dogs do. Structured playtime with felines is a priority in my home because it burns excess energy, prevents stress, and—most importantly—builds their confidence and security in their environment. Structured Rest & Crate Comfort: I respect an animal's need for boundaries and decompression. If a dog needs downtime to relax or reset, I utilize crate training as a safe, positive haven for them to unwind. Proactive Health & Bloat Prevention: Having deep experience with large breeds, I am hyper-aware of digestive health. All meals are served on a strict, timely schedule. Furthermore, I enforce mandatory, quiet rest periods immediately after eating to prevent any digestive discomfort or dangerous conditions like bloat. When you trust me with your pets, you are getting an environment rooted in vigilance, confidence-building routine, and a deep respect for animal wellness.

“Loren took such good care of our chows. She connected very quickly with their different sensibilities, and provided each the individual attention they needed during each drop-in visit. We so appreciate her help and would highly recommend her for anyone needing someone to care for their pups!”

“Mary is always reliable and great with our animals. She communicates well and takes good care of them when we are gone. She also listens to what we ask her to do with them including meds for our elderly cat.”

About: Some dogs are ready to go the moment they see the leash. Others would rather take their time and sniff along the way. I’ve walked dogs with different personalities and energy levels, and I adjust to what helps each one feel comfortable. I’ll learn your dog’s routine, follow their pace, and respect their boundaries. I’m also happy to help with feeding, fresh water, playtime, reinforcing basic commands, and cleanup. I want your dog to enjoy their time with me and you to feel confident they’re getting the same patience, attention, and affection I give my own. I have weekday availability and a lot more flexibility on weekends. I plan my bookings so I have enough time for each dog’s walk or visit and can give them my full attention without rushing. I start by learning your dog’s routine and anything that makes them nervous or uncomfortable. On walks, I keep dogs securely leashed, watch for traffic, weather, and other dogs, and pay attention to how your dog is doing. If they seem uneasy, I slow down, give them space, or change our route rather than push them. In your home, I follow your instructions for feeding, fresh water, playtime, and cleanup, and respect your space. I’ll also keep you updated on how the walk or visit went.

About: I am an experienced, reliable and dependable pet lover. I have grown up my whole life with animals. I recently had to put my senior pitbull down so my house is very quiet now. Pet care is my passion and currently my main source of income and work. I have plenty of time to care for your pet! I am interested in walking, daily visits, or overnight boarding anytime of the week. Our home has a large fenced in yard, perfect for your pup to enjoy some fresh air, or bask in the sunshine. I can take your pet on walks or they can run around in the yard. Or we can snuggle up on the couch and get lots of belly rubs.

About: I've grown up with dogs, I have my own and have taken care of many family member's dogs from puppies to elderly dogs. Pets always make the world a better place. I work as a bartender full time, so I tend to have mid-day availability during the week. I also can do some nights and weekends. I have a fully fenced in yard for my dog. I don't leave her out by herself even though I know she's safe. I also walk her on a harness to protect her neck.

“We appreciate you taking care of our pets while we were away. Thank you for making sure everyone had what they needed and sending us picture updates too.”

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and am an absolute dog lover! I have a large fenced in yard that dogs love to play in. I look forward to caring for your furry friend and helping with whatever they need. I work from home and can usually adjust my schedule to accommodate your needs. I’m available all day or night and weekends as well. Thank you! I have a dog and three children who will be able to play with your animal while I care for them in my home. I work from the house, so will spend the day with your dog. Your dog will have as much time playing in the backyard that they’d like!

About: I have cared for and owned dogs since I was 10 years old. As of this past year I also cared for my senior dog giving daily medication (oral and topical). I am a mostly stay at home mom. I work 2 hours a day during the school year otherwise I am home and available to care for your pet! We currently do not have any pets in our home. We have a large fenced in yard and I can also take your pet on multiple walks during the day.
