21. Lauren H.
“Lauren grew up with animals and is an avid animal lover. Whether you need her to just pop in to feed and snuggle your fur baby or take them out on a walk, your fur baby will be happy to see her. She loves the outdoors and taking walks, so would be a perfect match to burn some energy with your dog. I highly recommend Lauren!”


22. Quyn H.
“Amelia has taken care of our 2 cats and now 1 year old black lab. She's always reliable, playful with them, and follows our schedule to the letter! Highly recommend!”


23. Vasilisa C.
“Vasilisa is an amazing care giver. She is super friendly and very responsible. I've seen how attentive she was to her own dog, and how happy she is being around any animals. Highly recommend her as a walker and sitter.”


24. Adam H.

“Adam helped me out in a pinch and I will definitely use him again. I really appreciate his quick response to my request and the great care he gave my pet.”


25. Andrew N.


“Andrew was fantastic with our cats, and knowing they were in such good hands really allowed us to relax and enjoy our vacation. We have a 1 year old and a 20+ year old, and he did a great job giving each what they needed, whether more play or more snuggle time. He sent us daily photos that showed how relaxed and at ease they were with him, and both seemed happy and confident when we arrived home. We plan to use Andrew again for all upcoming trips!”




26. Kristin H.

“Wesley, my 95 pound lab and Dexter my 28 pound Puggle mix have vacationed twice the past two months at Kristin H's AdventureDog. We love her families caring home and her commitment to my dogs needs while I'm away. As a stay-at-home Mom, Kristin is able to spend almost all her time with her clients dogs spoiling, loving and exercising them on a farm, at the beach and a local forest preserve or in her sizable fenced in grass lawn. There is also an extra bonus, the other family members, her husband, two sons and foreign exchange student all take part in the loving and spoiling. If you are looking for a loving, compassionate, caring home, I recommend Kristin's AdventureDog. I rate her services AAA+ and my dogs can not wait for their next stay.”


27. Carla C.

“Carla is wonderful with my cat. She treats them like he was her own. I feel rested and assured while I'm recuperating that he is great hands with her. I'm so glad I found Carla for Jake.”




28. Alexandra S.

About: I grew up with 3 Goldens so I have plenty of experience and skills with different ages and energy levels! I will take your dogs on long scenic walks to parks and on different trails, and I am able to run them if that is something they like to do. I have also been a sitter for 4 Paws for Ability which is a service dog in training program, therefore I have skills pertaining to all different breeds and personalities. My calendar is very flexible so I’m happy to take care of or watch your pup any time - short or long term. They can stay with me or I can go to them! I have my own home which they are welcome to wander around and make themselves comfortable. I live in a residential area so your dog will be very safe with me!


29. Jesse H.
“Foremost, Jesse is a caring, trustworthy person who continually demonstrates his true concern for the welfare of all animals. Not only is he dependable and unusually punctual, he is experienced with any age or medical condition. In the past, he has taken care of our senior bird, RC and our older dog Fig when we were traveling, and currently he makes sure that our 13 month old puppy Cookie gets her walks, food and water on time while I am working. I like that he is proactive and immediately lets me know if there is anything I need to be concerned about regarding her health or habits. I highly recommend him! Sally R”
