“Klaudia was fantastic! Our kitties loved her and she was super kind and professional. We felt really good leaving them with her! Will definitely ask for her services in the future 🙂”
“Coleen was awesome with our two senior cats! We were a little worried leaving them with someone new, but the cats had nothing but pawsome feedback. Both kitties are on medications and very demanding, and Coleen exceeded all expectations. Coleen was quick to respond to any questions and provided thorough details of each visit along with a plethora of photos showing the kitties in their natural habitat which was really helpful. We came home, the house was in one piece, looked a little better than before we left, cats were happy, not overly stressed, had plenty of food and water. What a relief to have someone we can count on to watch our fur babies. I would not hesitate to schedule with Coleen again, as she was stellar! Thank you for looking after our two cats!! We will absolutely book again!”
“Kelly has really gone above and beyond. I had only lived in Chicago for 2 weeks before having to go back to Texas to prepare for the Polar Vortex and she took care of my kitties on short notice and even let me know my water had stopped working.”
“Jamie is reliable and such a great kitty sitter to count on! I know with Jamie my babies are well looked after and given love and attention during her pop in visits.”
“Julia did an amazing job with our jovi she is very shy dog and doesn't take well to people that are unfamiliar. Julia took her time and won her over and she was happy. Julia took extra care and did a great job!!!”
“We knew Karolly would be perfect from the second she met Winona. She is so sweet and went the extra mile and beyond to take care of our girl. Every video included the music she was using to help Winona relax along with lots of sweet talking and pets. We left the house with full confidence that she would do the best job she could and are very grateful she was there to check in on Winona over the holidays.”
“We've used Yulissa twice and she's great with communication and always takes great care of our kitty. Will definitely continue to contact her in the future. Thanks Yulissa!”
“Camille was very communicative, which left me feeling comfortable that my special needs pups would be well taken care of in my absence! Will definitely book Camille again.”

“Arianna is great and River adores her. She provides helpful updates regarding her visits and is very responsive.

About: My name is Daniella. I am 24 years old and working with animals is what my life is about. All my life I have had my own pets and I have also worked at an animal hospital for the past 8 years! I am a college graduate with a degree in Biology and I’m here to make sure your fur babies are happy and safe! I have lots of experience with animals and I love any kind. You have a cat? No problem! 5 dogs? (It’s okay I do too!) consider me to watch your lovely animals! I promise that I won’t let you down! I am currently a full time vet tech!

Bringing pets into my home won’t always be an option for me but I am more than happy to stay at your home to watch your fur babies! I have 2 dogs and 2 cats myself so bringing in other pets does not always work well for my little guysz
“Thank you so much!!!!! I’m glad he came out of hiding and hung out with you, he looks very well taken care of!!”
“Abby has been doing weekly visits for our dog, Trixie for about a month now. Trixie is a rescue who has a lot of anxiety and has had some issues with dog walkers in the past (she would hide and refuse to go outside). However, she loves Abby! Abby took the time to slowly get to know Trixie and didn't push her when she was nervous. She was just what Trixie needed. Abby sends us detailed updates and photos each visit which is greatly appreciated. We are so glad we found Abby and highly recommend her!”
About: I love going on walks and taking my own 2 dogs on walks up to 6 miles at a time! I would love to walk other dogs from short to long distances. I own two small dogs, but I also have experience with medium-sized dogs, and I think I can easily learn how to work with larger dogs. Willing to travel with bike to location! I am available all day, from morning to evening, and any day of the week. I am very flexible with times to coordinate with your schedule. I will watch out for any changes in body language such as paying attention to the dog's tail, the dog showing their teeth, and if they want to head another direction. If they start to feel unsafe, I will make sure to check our surroundings and comfort the dog.
“She was efficient as always, the app messed up on the last day and didn’t tell her she had a check in, but she still went when asked! Our dog loves Ashley!”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve had my senior dog for 13 years, and caring for her as she’s aged has taught me so much about love, patience, and what it means to truly understand a pet’s needs. I’ve worked at a doggy daycare, where I got to know so many different breeds and personalities, and now I work as a veterinary assistant, which has deepened my knowledge and confidence in animal care, even in tricky situations. I’ve also been the go-to pet sitter for friends and family, and I always care for their pets like I would my own. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or giving meds, I’m here to make your pet feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. As a full-time college student studying pre-veterinary sciences and working part-time at a veterinary clinic, my schedule can vary throughout the week. I always update my availability to ensure your pet receives the best care possible. Typically, my availability is more flexible from Friday to Sunday, but my Monday to Thursday schedule depends on my classes and clinic hours. I’m also available for overnight pet sitting on weekends or with advance notice. If you have specific times or requests in mind, feel free to ask—I’m happy to work with you and adjust as needed! Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. I have a fully fenced yard, providing a secure and safe environment for your pups to play and explore. Additionally, I live in a neighborhood surrounded by parks, so there are plenty of places for walks, playtime, and outdoor adventures. If your pet prefers or needs to be crated, I can accommodate that as well, ensuring they feel secure and comfortable. Whether it’s keeping them safe in the yard, taking them on exciting strolls through nearby parks, or crating when necessary, you can trust that your pets are in good hands with plenty of space to run, play, and relax.
