“Brandi took great care of my 2 cats while I was away for a week. As someone who gets very nervous about leaving my babies behind when traveling it was nice to know that they were in good hands ☺️”
“Amanda was an incredible help while I was away taking such great care of my cats! She went above and beyond, not only making sure they were well cared for but also leaving my home even cleaner than when she arrived. Her daily updates were so thoughtful and reassuring, giving me total peace of mind. Plus, she has such a great vibe—I feel like we’d get along so well in everyday life! Thank you so much, Amanda!”
About: I’ve grown up with two dogs—one small and one large—so I’m comfortable handling all sizes. I enjoy caring for high-energy dogs just as much as calm, cuddly ones. Whether it’s playtime or downtime, I adapt to each dog’s personality and needs. I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I do not have a job, I am looking but am currently unemployed and starting school again in August! I will have plenty of time to visit your pups this summer and even during school:) I have a fenced backyard with lots of space and trees for your dog to run around!! I have a Big German Shepard who is friendly and loves to play with other dogs outside!!
“Jessica is great with the drop-in visit's while I was out of town! Arrived on-time and sent a card with Blizzard's picture to let me know how he was doing. Would definitely use her again!!”
About: I’ve always had animals big or small. I know the feeling of a set schedule. So I’d be so happy to be there for your animals set schedules. I have time in my schedule to hangout with your animals. I can do anything from stopping by to let them out or feed them. Walking and getting exercise would be fun with an animal. My dogs love outside, laying down, playing or going for walks. I can do those for your animals or just hanging inside relaxing and keeping them company.
About: I have grown up around pets and have owned dogs, cats, and guinea pigs. I have experience sitting for neighbors and friends. I have cared for dogs of all sizes, cats, and small animals. I have taken a veterinary assistant course which helps me to know how to best care for your pet! I have never met an animal I didn't get along with and would love to meet and care for yours! I work part-time from home and my work will travel, so I will have lots of time to provide whatever care your pet might need! I will provide compassionate, exceptional care for your pet in your home, keeping them in their own environment. I am available for drop in visits or to spend the day with them if you are at work or on vacation. I would love to play with your animals, keep them company, let them out, feed them, walk them, and whatever else you may need!
About: I've taken care of pets of every kind since I was eight. Neighbors, friends and family rely on me to play, feed, walk and take care of their pets when their gone. I'm currently a college student working part-time, so i'll have plenty time to play and take care of your pet! I am pretty much available 24/7 to provide the best care for your animal. At a client's home, I swing by to feed their pets according to their usual schedule. Then, it's outside for a walk, letting them stretch their legs and do their business. I make sure to give them plenty of attention and playtime during the visit, so they feel loved and cared for.
“Awesome sitter! Very friendly, helpful, and kept us always in the know as to what was going on at home with our pets. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a responsible sitter to help put their mind at ease over the care of their fur babies while they’re away. Will definitely contact again if needed. Thanks so much, Lisa!!”
About: I’m patient when it comes to smelly odors, scratching, barking, and I always pick up after messes (dog/cat waste, food/water spills, slobbered floors). I have taken care of my own dog for the past 10 years and have taken in a family members cat for two whole months. Taking care of animals has never been an issue to me! Im currently a licensed esthetician working from home. I also work part time at a bar within close distance of my home. I’m usually available most days as I work later hours or as some services are shorter. I have a fenced yard. I also have two cats who find themselves hanging out mostly in the basement or in my room, but they are always good around other animals and keep to themselves. I live right in front of a large field with a trail around it perfect for walking/playing outside! My house and yard itself is spacious and very open for movement.
About: I am very passionate about dogs and making sure that they receive the care and attention they deserve. I cater to both you and your pets needs, whether they need a quick stroll around the block or a hike through the park. I make sure to provide them with love and care as I would my own pets. Your dog/cats safety and wellbeing is my top priority. What you can expect from me is punctual, dependable, attentive and personalized care. Your animals will be in great hands! My goal has always been to hangout with pets all day. I typically aim for my earliest walk to be around 9am and the latest be closer to 5 or 6pm. I appreciate being able to provide care in an environment that is familiar and comfortable for the animal. I will be attending to your pets every need and prepared for any occurrence.
About: I have cared for dogs the past 15 years. From getting energy out to slowing down for cuddles, I love all aspects of dog care. I have experience with all ages, especially seniors with special medical needs. I work a rotating schedule that leaves whole days free to care for your furry family members! My boarding schedule rotates with my work schedule but with enough notice I can make anything work. Your animals safety is my top priority when they are in my care. I follow all instructions given by you to keep them safe. My yard is fenced and nothing hazardous to your pet is within their reach.
About: Hello! I am a 28-year-old animal lover on Chicago’s East side. My solo-living lifestyle isn’t best suited for a pup of my own, so I’d love to help you care for yours! I am extremely responsible and the most loving toward all furry family members. I make fast friends with pretty much every one I meet :) I believe that exercise is essential for both dogs and cats to thrive, so I’ll take your pup out on extra long walks and run around with the feather toy with your cats for as long as they’ll let me! I also have several years of experience with caring for family dogs with medicinal and special health needs. I’m so excited to meet you and your sweet furry family members! I have a flexible full-time work schedule, so with notice, I can assist with walks during the work day. On weekends when I am in Chicago, I can be available for walking or visiting day or night! I live in a high-rise, so it’s not best suited for caring for pets in my home. But in the right circumstance, I’m happy to watch your pets in your home during vacations or overnight trips. Just let me know what your situation is and we can figure out the best option for you!
“Brynna did an amazing job!! We were so comfortable leaving our babies in her care. She checked in on time and shared photos along the way! We were able to enjoy our Wedding day without worry! Thank you so much Brynna!! Looking forward to the next time!!”
About: I worked at the local pet store for a little over a year, many of my friends have relied on me to watch their animals when they were gone for a bit. I am currently not working at the moment, so this will be my full time job for now. I have experience with cats, dogs, ferrets, and all reptiles!! I have a fenced in backyard, friendly dogs. Always make sure they have water, toys, etc. Crated during the nighttime when we are asleep for the night.
About: Ever since I was young I have taken care of peoples dogs, cats, and even plants. I made sure to walk them, and keep them active and happy. I have experience in caring for ALL types of animals. People even call me an animal advocate. :) I'm currently not employed, and am mostly looking just to do this for the summer, especially if I get enough clients. So I have a very free, and very open schedule! I have three separate rooms, in my home to care for animals. I live right next to a park to insure they will be staying active, and getting enough walks in. If I am provided everything to care for your pet, then everything will go smoothly.
About: I have had pets consistently since i was 5 years old. I’ve had four cats and one dog, and currently have one cat and one dog. I have pet sit for family friends and people from my church since i was 13. Animals have always been a big part of my life and i love meeting new furry friends. I’m experienced with cleaning up after them, standard bathing and brushing, and taking them out on walks. I am currently working a full time job, but i have lots of time every friday and sunday to take care of pets. I am able to drop in for visits or walks after 5:30 every other monday and every other wednesday. Along with that, saturdays after 2:30 are also very open. At home, we keep our dog in her crate at night and when out of the house, so i’m comfortable with crate schedules, if that fits your pet’s needs. We have a cable outside for our dog, and many leashes for our walks.
