Pet Sitting Gage Park

About: I’ve taken care of or have had animals since I was a child. Currently I have a cat named Ida who is very sweet & affectionate. I just graduated with a Master’s of Social Work. Before beginning my career, I’m taking some down time and taking care of animals. This gives me the ability to prioritize your pets needs! My environment is animal friendly. I have a fenced in back yard and live near a park. I have a cat named Ida who is welcoming to new animals inside our home. I allow animals on my bed and furniture.

“Me’lia was a godsend, when my original sitter had to cancel last minute. She was communicative and thoughtful, and was super accommodating. And both my cat and my dog loved her. Would recommend and would rebook her again!”

About: I have 12 years of hands-on experience caring for my own Chihuahua mix, along with experience caring for pets in family homes while babysitting. I adapt to each pet’s personality, whether that means active engagement or giving them space, while ensuring they feel safe, calm, and well cared for at all times. My background as a teacher’s assistant and current work in healthcare with older adults has strengthened my reliability, patience, and attention to detail. I provide calm, consistent, and attentive care for every pet. I am a fully remote worker and can work from anywhere with a quiet space. I work a daytime healthcare role Monday–Friday (9–5) and a talent agency role evenings and weekends. My work sessions are typically 2–4 hours, allowing for flexible availability and plenty of downtime for pet care. My philosophy is to leave every home better than I found it. I treat each client’s home with respect, secure it properly, allow no visitors, and prioritize the pet’s full care needs—food, water, walks, and medical attention if needed. I’m easy to communicate with and always open to house rules, questions, or concerns.

About: I grew up with cats and Golden Retrievers and now have 4 Boston Terriers and 2 new kittens, who are my whole world! I am also an approved dog-walker / caregiver for Chicago Animal Care and Control, trained in their strict techniques, so I am comfortable caring for, walking, and exhausting small to large dogs. Currently working part time, so have lots of time to dedicate to your pups! I am mostly available for walks during weekdays: Mon - Fri, 9a - 5p Happy to care for your pup where they are most comfortable, in your home! Even if you have a fully fenced yard, you can trust that I'll never leave them unsupervised and unleashed, outside. If you do not have a fenced yard, we will have lots of fun getting our steps in, around the neighborhood! Comfortable getting your pup in and out of crates/kennels if needed, and getting them harnessed up for walks. Will *always* pick up any and all poop your pup leaves, whether in your yard or on our walks.

“I had such a great experience with my Lizbeth! She was reliable, caring, and kept me updated the entire time, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. What really stood out was her flexibility—when my flight got canceled, she kindly agreed to take care of my cat an extra day. That meant so much to me and truly showed her dedication and professionalism. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter!”

“Yesenia is truly an awesome catsitter. I would recommend her if you want to feel secure that your sitter is taking care of your pets and looking after them. I will be booking with her again!”

I grew up surrounded by animals, which helped me develop a natural understanding of their needs and personalities.

Whether it’s walks, playtime, or quiet companionship, I treat every pet like my own.

I take time to understand each pet’s personality and comfort level so they feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for while you’re away.

“Tara gave my cat fabulous, attentive care, as always! I’m grateful she always communicates and sends wonderful pictures. It’s the next best thing to being able to visit Jim Catsby myself. Thanks very much!”

About: I am trained as a Certified Veterinary Technician that has given me the skills and knowledge to provide safe, attentive care. I’m better equipped to recognize potential health concerns, handle unexpected situations, and know when a pet may need veterinary attention.

I’m patient, attentive, and dedicated to making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I currently work part-time at a veterinary clinic four days a week. Your pet must be okay with being alone during normal work hours, but otherwise I can provide plenty of companionship, care, and attention. I do not offer boarding in my home, but I am happy to provide house sitting in your home. I will treat your home with the same respect and care I would my own, leaving everything just as I found it.

“I had arranged a last minute trip and my regular Rover sitter was unavailable. I got in touch with Maribel and we were able to arrange everything in a day. I got tons of photos while I was away and came home to happy cats. I’d definitely use Maribel again!”

About: I have been a dog parent for the last 10 years. I have experience with dogs with disabilities (my two dogs have 3 legs) and leash-reactive furbabies. As a sitter, I have taken care of all kinds of dogs but prefer a nice temperament if a dog comes to my home so he or she can get along with my own dogs. I am knowledgeable of dog training techniques and are observant of dog behaviors.
