About: I grew up with family dogs and have had mine since he was 8 weeks old (he will be 16 years old this August!). Experience with puppies through senior dogs. Large breeds and small! Would love to take care of yours. I work full time from home, so I have ample amount of time to hang out with your pups (no matter the age, dogs are forever pups in my eyes!). I have an almost 16 year old pup who naps most of the day but is always excited for his walks! I live in a low traffic area and just down the street from a fenced grass area we play in. In case there’s rain, I have a covered area to take the pups out so they still get some fresh air.


“When I first saw Jennifer I knew right away that I could safely leave my dog to her. Cola had a great time with Jen and her family while we had a whole day trip in Chicago city. It’s very convenient that her place is only 15 mins away from the downtown area. Thank you Jen and family -Ryan from Minnesota”


About: I've been taking care of pets since the I was 12. My family and I have had one english bulldog. Currently we have two french bulldogs, so I understand the importance of the care of bulldogs as well as Chihuahuas! I have always been the go to person to care for and groom our pets. I'm currently in college full time. However, it is online so I have a lot of time to play, walk, and give love to your pets! I have a fenced yard as well as two dogs to play with your pets. I also have one cat. I live close to the Mckinley Park area so there will be a lot of walks.

“Nothing but praise with Traci! She’s the best there is! I read a few reviews of Traci and decided to book with her. Best decision I’ve ever made! She’s watched my pup multiple times now. She kept me to date throughout the day with so many photos and videos of my pup. It made me feel at ease while I was at work. The fact that she has kids and a few dogs made me feel very comfortable knowing that my pup needed socialization. Traci knows what she’s doing around dogs and you can see her passion! Can’t wait for Zara to go back :)”


“Emily is amazing, she took care of my baby like it was her own. Snoopy always excited as soon as he saw we pulled up to her house and I can tell he felt safe and was happy to be spending the day with her. I will definitely bring him back.”

About: I’ve taken care of all types of dogs. From huskies to chihuahuas. From all ages, puppies to seniors. I always believe that dogs are our best friends and should be treated as such! I use to have a husky. He died of old age. He was a very energetic dog. I usually like to walk dogs around the neighborhood to make sure they get their daily dose of exercise. I also believe that playing with them one on one is very important for their development. I do currently have an adorable 5 year old husky - who is extremely energetic! So, I make sure he has a very well-balanced fitness schedule that will make sure he is able to receive the exercise he needs Make sure they are well fed, well hydrated and also making sure they anre able to play and have fun as well. I always try to have a comfortable environment for dogs because I know they are probably wondering where their owners are at. I do not mind pets being on my furniture - I do believe that some dogs feel some sort of relief and comfort being on furniture (sofas,etc.) especially in a new environment.

About: Pet Care Experience: I have 8 years of hands-on experience caring for pets, including feeding 🍲 , grooming, walking, 🚶♂️ and ensuring their comfort and safety. I’m skilled at understanding their needs and providing a loving environment 🐶 What Sets Me Apart: My extensive experience as a pet parent gives me a deep understanding of dog behavior and care routines. I’m patient and attentive, with a knack for keeping pets happy and secure, whether it’s a playful pup or a senior needing extra TLC. I’m a full time student. I attend school in person for 4-5 hours and then 3 hours in the evening. When im at school during the morning my wife who is also a skilled pet parent watches over the pets. I do all the walking and insuring the are mentally and physically entertained with cool games I make for my dog. I’m very active person so I love to get the dogs tired but not to tired as it can really strain them. I have a fenced yard and one other very friendly and loving pit bull terrier who is one year old. My wife and I focus our energy on our dog so much as he was our own son so we think we’d make excellent co parents to other dogs and also give our dog and YOUR dog a nice and long time friend.

“Yesenia was amazing! She was able to accommodate and watch Baby last minute. She was super sweet and updated us on how Baby was doing and even sent us pictures of her having a blast. Baby came home tired from all the fun she had. Would definitely recommend leaving your little one with her.”

Lisette S.Star Sitter
“I hired Lisette to walk and care for my 6 year old golden retriever/pit bull mix rescue dog Lucy whenever I would go out of town for business. Lisette is the daughter of my co-worker, the first time she met my best friend Lucy, Lucy was a bit standoffish due to her being uneasy around strangers. After a few hours Lucy loved Lisette and felt comfortable around her. Lisette would care for Lucy for 2 weeks every month while I was away, she would send me daily pictures of their walks or when they were just hanging out. Sometimes Lucy wouldn't want to leave Lisette's apartment. Although I don't travel as much I still employ Lisette to walk Lucy just so that Lucy can see her good friend Lisette. I definitely recommend Lisette to care for your 4 legged friends. Lisette would also watch over my 3 year old cat Benito. Although Benito does not need much maintenance Lisette always makes time to play with him and ensures he eats his food. Lisette also recommended for me to add water to his wet food to ensure he drinks more water for health reasons. I cannot recommend Lisette enough, she is good at what she does, I have also recommended her to other friends who do not have time to walk tbeir 4 legged friends.”

Lupe would hand feed it assuring its survival I will forever be grateful for the time and love she puts on the ones I care for.”
