About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember, and my very first job was walking around my neighborhood asking people if I could walk their dogs. I genuinely love the company of dogs and treat animals with the same level of care, patience, and attention you would give a family member. I’ve grown up around Boxers my whole life, but I also love small dogs and have always adored larger breeds like Mastiffs and Rottweilers. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and care for their pets while they’re away. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for. I currently work part-time as a server, so my schedule is very flexible throughout the week. This gives me plenty of time to dedicate to walks, drop-ins, playtime, and making sure your pets get the attention and consistency they deserve. I’m available most weekdays and weekends and try my best to accommodate different schedules whenever possible. I treat every pet with patience, attention, and care because I truly believe animals deserve to be treated like family. I pay close attention to routines, feeding instructions, leash safety, behavior, and any special needs your pet may have so they feel comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. I also believe communication is important, so I’ll always keep owners updated with messages and photos so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.

About: I have taken care of friends and family and fellow neighbors pets ranging from yorkies to bull mastiffs.

I am very flexible with pet sitting needs. I have no rigid schedule which makes it easier for me to take of your pets. I always make sure to keep a eye on your loved pets and make sure all their needs are met. Guarantee you’ll come home to a happy dog!

About: I grew up in a multi-pet household so animals became a huge part of my life. I’ve had dogs, cats, fish, and a hedgehog at one point so I’m also familiar with some exotic pet care. I currently have a one and half year old Australian shepherd who is very active so I am used to providing lots of physical and mental stimulation. We are currently training in various activities such as scentwork and agility. I also have experience with senior dogs and administering medications. I am currently available most days so I can stop in for a long walk or a quick check in any day of the week. I treat every animal as if it were my own. I believe animals deserve care, love, and respect just like you would show anyone else. I also do my best to read the animals body language and respect their boundaries.

I was a bit nervous leaving my cat with someone I hadn’t met before, but I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Robin was incredibly professional from the start—communicative, punctual, and clearly experienced with pets. While I was away, Robin sent regular updates with pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. She kept the litter box clean, followed all instructions, and most importantly, took wonderful care of my cat. I came home to a well cared for kitty and a tidy space. I highly recommend Robin to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!

Shelby is so good with our Tug who is a sweet but anxious dog. Shelby stayed with Tug a few weeks ago for a week and he has become fond of her. Today he remembered her and welcomed her back. He jumped right into her lap!! We are so pleased with the way Shelby takes care of Tug and our house. Thank you Shelby!!

About: I’ve had such a variety of animal care in my life! I work as a wildlife keeper and have a zoo of my own. I have 3 dogs, 4 cats, a fish, and 2 birds! Elderly animals hold a special place in my heart and I’m comfortable with medications/clinic care as well. Hire me if your pets need an excessive amount of love! During the colder seasons, I have flexible hours and only work 30 hour weeks. I can’t get enough when it comes to animals and animal care in general. Everyday I find joy in taking care of animals, whether that means my own, my patients, or yours! Having so many animas of my own, I’m very familiar in animal behavior and safety. I’ve dealt with reactive dogs of my own and balancing cat dynamics. I have experience in doggy daycare as well and would have 20+ dogs under my supervision at a time.

About: With 20 years of hands-on experience and a genuinely kind approach to all animals, I treat every pet like family—patiently, gently, and with real understanding. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine—I have a flexible schedule and wide availability, so I can accommodate early afternoon, midday, evening, and last-minute requests. For drop-in visits and walks, I focus on keeping pets comfortable and sticking closely to their usual routine. During check-ins, I make sure they’re fed, have fresh water, get plenty of attention, and any litter boxes or potty areas are clean. For walks, I provide safe, engaging exercise tailored to your dog’s energy level. I always prioritize safety, patience, and kindness so your pet feels secure and cared for while you’re away. I do not take client pets into any body of water outside of standard bathing services unless it has been specifically requested and approved in advance.

About: Hi there! I’m Mia. I have a passion for pets of all sizes and breeds. I am excited to be able to help you by caring for your pets while you are away. Your babies will be cared for and loved just as if they were my own. I have had bunnies, dogs, birds, lizards, turtles, cats, and ducks though out my life. I love animals, and I’m looking forward to meeting you and your pets. Currently with summer here I’ll have plenty of time to play and care for your pups! I’m available for drop ins and walks on weekdays, and weekends vary. I have a big open yard but sadly I will not be available for boarding. I will be doing walks or drop ins if wanted. I personally love playing with pups outdoors with toys or anything available.

About: I have owned 1-2 dogs at a time since I was born. I love all kinds of dogs, big and small, and I havent met a dog that hasn't liked me! I love going for walks and would be open to running if they have a lot of energy. I am available for all services except boarding as I have my own dog and he is pretty territorial. I live in Homer Glen and work in Oakbrook four days a week, typically 8-6:30. I am free on weekends and one weekday per week (usually Fridays). I am easy to contact and I am always smiling, especially if there is a dog nearby! I would make sure you are happy you chose me to take care of your furry friend!

About: From growing up in a home that always had pets, I have cared for various animals my entire life. From my own personal experience, I have cared for puppies, adults, and senior dogs. This has provided me with experience in general and specialized care. Specifically, I have puppy/potty trained, provided various medications, and grooming/bathing. I have worked with animals of various sizes and breeds. Neighbors, friends, and families have trusted me to not only ensure that their animal was cared for, but that their house was as well. I am a huge animal lover that you can trust to make sure your fur-family member is not just cared for, but loved while you are away! As a School Psychologist, I work the standard school year schedule with various breaks. This includes high levels of availability and flexibility throughout the summer and around holidays. Growing up, we would take out dogs outside on a leash for them to use the bathroom. Currently, we have a gated area that our dogs can use to relieve themselves and enjoy the fresh air. Additionally, a we also have leads that our cats are connected to so that they can also enjoy the outside air while ensuring their safety from predators and triggers of fear. When leashed, our animals wear harnesses as this is safer for them not only medically, but socially as well. A harness also decreases the chances and opportunities for them to slip out and run away.
