Dog Sitting Elmwood Park

About: I've grown up in a family surrounded by animals, even beyond dogs and cats, and now live on my own with my two beautiful kittys. It would be my pleasure to take care of your dogs, as I miss spending time with the ones that live with my family. I'm used to having animals of all ages and sizes, with special dietary restrictions, intense attention requirements, and specific health issues, so very few things will be enough to deter me from taking care of your babies. My job incurs a lifestyle which has me leave work relatively early, so I should have no problem being there for your pet by 3:00 P.M. at the latest every weekday and saturday (I typically don't work sundays at all). Adapting to the setting of your house is no problem for me, and so long as your pet is comfortable there I should have no issues looking after them in whatever way you'd like. As long as instructions are clear and concise, your pet will be well taken care of while I'm there.

“I always feel at ease having Bryndon check up on my pup. I always worry since a corso is not an easy dog to manage but he always has tons of fun with Bryndon. I also enjoy all the cute pics I get :) he’s very respectful of our house rules too”

About: As a teacher, patience, responsibility, and clear communication are part of my everyday life, and I bring those same qualities to pet care. I have two dogs of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. I'm comfortable caring for dogs with different personalities and energy levels, whether they love long walks, playtime, or just relaxing with company. I pay close attention to each pet's routine, follow care instructions carefully, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands. During the summer I am working less hours I am available Monday- Friday after 3 pm and the weekends I am free all day. Caring for my own two dogs is already part of my daily routine, so looking after other pets fits in naturally. For dog walks, I make sure each walk matches your dog's energy level and routine, whether they enjoy a leisurely stroll or a more active outing. During drop-in visits I am capable of doing anything that is needed to care for your dogs needs.

“She watched Daisy and did a fantastic job. Daisy was a little nervous at first but she worked with her and by the end of my vacation they were sitting on the backyard stairs cuddling!”

About: I live in a single family house hold. We have a gated outside area and lots of parks near by. I love animals & would love to have company. I do have a job that i go to four days out of the week but the hours varies and I go to school for 3 hours everyday during the weekday. I am willing to accommodate with your hours! I have a gated outside area. There are no pets in the home currently. We can provided safe gates within the homes to keep any pet out of certain areas, if needed.

“Great at everything. I used her service multiple times and she’s been awesome at timing, service and goes above and beyond. I will definitely recommend her and will continue using her moving forward.”

About: While I haven’t worked professionally as a pet sitter, I’ve cared for my own dog for the past 6 years and my cat for over a year. Being a pet owner has taught me the importance of patience, responsibility, and giving animals the love and attention they deserve. I’m comfortable with feeding, providing fresh water, taking dogs on walks, cleaning up after pets, playing with them, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I’m happy to follow your instructions to provide the best care possible. I will treat your pets with the same love, care, and respect that I give my own. Pet care is already part of my daily routine since I care for my own dog and cat every day. I make time for feeding, fresh water, walks for my dog, playtime, and making sure both of my pets are happy and comfortable. Because I’m used to caring for animals consistently, I’m able to include additional pet care into my schedule and follow each pet’s individual routine and needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, I’ll follow your instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), and any special routines. I’ll make sure pets always have fresh water, plenty of attention, and a clean, safe environment. I understand that every pet is different, so I’ll take the time to make them feel comfortable and secure. I’ll also provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I will treat your pet with the same care, patience, and love that I give my own dog and cat.

“Kristina was excellent. She took on this dog visit last minute and was able to change the visit time me the morning of. Very accommodating. She was a great communicator and took lots of photos to share. Cosmo loved her and I’d be happy to have her back.”

About: My heart doesn’t know any other way-when it comes to animals, I love them instantly and unconditionally. I have 18+ years of experience caring for animals, starting from a very young age. I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have cared for both Pitbulls and French Bulldogs but to me, breed doesn’t matter. I truly love all animals, big or small. I’m bilingual and speak both English and Spanish, which helps me connect with a wider range of pet parents and provide clear, open communication. I’ve always been the go-to person for anything pet-related. My family calls me the dog whisperer because I have a natural bond with animals, especially dogs. Whether it’s advice, health concerns, or just being a listening ear, I’m the one family and friends trust with their fur babies. My soul dog was a red nose pitbull named Bricks- he taught me what real love is. Since then, I’ve raised three amazing French Bulldogs: Juicy, Kuma, and Tron. I also had the incredible experience of raising two litters from birth- Juicy had 5 puppies and Kuma had 6. I provided round-the-clock care until they were ready for their forever homes. I still keep in touch with the families- they became part of mine. In addition to caring for my own dogs, I regularly pet-sit for friends, family, and neighbors-dogs and cats alike. One of my most consistent companions is Max, my neighbor’s dog, whom I’ve been caring for for over a year. I give him daily medication and make sure he always feels safe, loved, and well cared for. I’ve also cared for a bearded dragon, who was part of our family for 11 wonderful years. I’m familiar with reptile needs, feeding, handling, and tank care. I also have experience caring for a cockatiel, including feeding, changing water, and maintaining a calm, happy environment for birds. I’m experienced with: Giving medication Drop-in visits Long walks and playtime Baths and basic grooming Feeding routines and crate care Newborn puppy care and socialization Basic reptile and bird care I truly treat every pet like they’re my own because in my heart, they are. The amount of kisses, cuddles, love, and attention your pet will receive is immense. I go above and beyond to make sure every animal feels safe, comforted, and cared for like family. I’m also very communicative and will keep you updated with photos, videos, and messages so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. You can trust me to provide more than just care. I offer love, safety, and genuine companionship. Pet care is a natural part of my everyday life! I work from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide consistent attention, walks, feedings, and lots of love throughout the day. Whether it’s early morning potty breaks, midday walks, or evening snuggles, I can easily adjust my schedule to fit your pet’s needs. Being home full-time means your pet will never feel alone and will always have someone nearby to care for and comfort them. Whether your pet is staying in my home or I’m visiting yours, their safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. At my home, pets have plenty of room to play and relax-I have a large fenced-in yard that's perfect for safe outdoor time and supervised play. If your pet is crate-trained or needs a crate for naps or bedtime, I can easily accommodate that too. I follow each pet’s routine closely-feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special care instructions-to make sure they feel at home. If I’m in your home, I respect your space and ensure everything is done exactly how you’d like. I’m also very communicative and will send regular updates, photos, and videos so you always know your pet is safe and well cared for. I treat every pet like family and work hard to create a calm, loving, and secure environment, whether they’re with me or in their own home.

About: From the many years of having a Labrador I have learned many ways of taking care of a dog especially since mine is very wild. Recently a few years ago have also gotten a miniature schnauzer and I enjoy the amount of love I receive from both my pets. I also have much experience taking care of dogs from my sisters German shepherd that she has had the past years. I have a huge love for animals and I aim to provide the best care for any animal I am around. My time volunteering at the animal shelter in my home town has also shown me how different types of breeds act and how to calm them down. They also showed me the basic care that cats and dogs need. I tend to be the guy that plays with the dog in social gatherings mainly because I want to have a solid connection with them. The other pets in my pictures that are not mine are dogs I have cared for and found/rescued I can care for pets almost anytime before 4pm and I can stay the night with them almost very night. Of course a proper 1 day notice is appreciated I make sure to know rules the owners may have specific to their pets needs. Aside from that making sure they are in a comfortable environment with water and fed at their meal times. If allowed , walks too so they can use the bathroom and for exercise.

“Alex did a fantastic job checking in on our cat during our vacation. He bonded with her right away and sent us great photos on a regular basis. If you need someone to take of your cat, look no further than Alex.”

“Krystie was great with our shepherds. She was patient with our youngest pup and it was obvious they enjoyed her company. Will definitely rebook again!”

About: I have been around animals since I was born. I have had several dogs as pets. They were/are all very well loved and taken care of. I trained our Zoe since she was a puppy. She knows all her basic commands and even a few tricks. I am comfortable with dogs or all sizes and age! I am a stay at home mom so I am always home! My priority will be your pet so that their needs are always met and satisfied. I have a big fenced in backyard. Your dog(s) are welcome on my furniture as well considering they will be part of my family while they will be with me.

“Nacy watched our last dog who recently passed and she is now watching our Puppy. A true dog person and I trust her with our Toby completely!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over five years, and I have two small dogs of my own that I love. I’m organized, responsible, and attentive, and I provide each dog with personalized care, walks, and playtime. I also prioritize clear communication with owners, just as I appreciate when someone cares for my own pets. I’m available all week, including weekends. Just reach out and we can discuss your schedule. I kindly ask owners to be honest about their pets’ needs and behavior so I can provide the best care and avoid any issues during their stay. I prefer to care for pets at my home, where I can provide a safe and comfortable environment. I offer boarding only for small dogs, as I live on a 2nd floor, and I have a backyard where pets can play at least twice a day, along with neighborhood walks. My goal is for every dog to have a happy and enjoyable stay. For any specific details or questions, feel free to contact me.

“Yaneira is great! She watched my kitty Sydney for over a week and did exactly what I asked for and more! I truly felt comfortable being on vacation knowing that Sydney was in Yaneira's hands. She is professional and loves animals, which was easy to tell from when she met Sydney. I will definitely be using Yaneira again the next time I need to go out of town. She is very responsible and committed :)”
