“I highly recommend Peggy! She watched our 2 cats for over a week, and I will definitely be a repeat client. During our meet & greet she paid close attention and asked follow up questions to make sure she fully understood the care instructions. Peggy is also very communicative. She really gave me peace-of-mind.”

About: I’m a dependable dog lover with over 10 years of experience caring for dogs. I enjoy taking dogs on walks, giving them plenty of attention, and making sure they feel safe and happy. I currently work part-time, so I offer dog walks around my work schedule. I’m reliable, flexible when possible, and will always communicate if there are any scheduling changes. My goal is to make sure your dog gets a safe, fun, and enjoyable walk every time. Your dog’s safety is my top priority. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, keep your dog leashed unless you request otherwise in a secure area, provide fresh water after walks, and make sure they return home happy and safe.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for many years, primarily through dog sitting for family, friends, and others in my community. I’m comfortable keeping up with regular feeding schedules, long walks, trips to the dog park, playtime, and making sure each pup gets plenty of attention and exercise. I’ve also helped administer basic medications, including pills and eye drops, when needed. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I’m happy to follow your instructions to keep them comfortable and on their normal schedule. Whether your pup needs an active walking buddy, lots of playtime, or someone to keep them company and give them plenty of cuddles, I’m happy to help! Although I work full-time, pet care fits very easily into my weekly routine. I typically work from home two days a week, usually Mondays and Fridays, which gives me extra flexibility for walks, check-ins, and spending time with pets throughout the day. I’m also generally free in the evenings after work and have open availability on weekends. I enjoy staying active and getting outside, so taking dogs for walks or spending time playing with them is something I genuinely enjoy. I’m very comfortable planning my schedule around pet care and making sure each pet gets the attention, exercise, and care they need. Since I have a flexible routine outside of work, I’m able to be reliable and consistent with the pets I’m caring for. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make it a priority to keep their normal routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. I’ll follow any instructions provided regarding feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and other specific needs. I’m respectful of the home and will stick to the common areas and spaces needed to care for the pet. I’ll always clean up after myself, keep things tidy, and make sure the home is left just as I found it. Most importantly, I want both the pet and their owner to feel comfortable and confident while they’re away.

About: I've had pets since I was a little girl. I have my own Border Collie Arya and Devon Rex Tyrion at home. I am an attentive and loving pet owner who is familiar with giving medications. I currently work full time as a youth services librarian. My schedule is flexible to drop in on your pet during the week, and I always have flexibility on the weekends. I love to spend time cuddling pets and loving going on walks with them. Both my pets at home love attention. I am familiar with giving pet medications since both of mine take daily meds.

“Ann took great care of my two mini dachshunds Baron and Rusty. She was not only punctual and reliable, but my boys really enjoyed her visits. Will definitely book again when I have need of her services!”

About: I am a kennel technician at my local shelter and a current animal science student at the University of Illinois. I love all dogs and cats, especially those who need a little extra help! I’ve had great pet sitters for my past dog and would love to pass that on. I work part-time at the shelter currently. This is like my other part-time job. I am very flexible in my schedule and can most likely work around your schedule. I have two brothers in my home that also love animals. My dog also loves to have company. I do not have a fence, but I do have a large field and long tie-outs that I supervise the dogs on.

About: I’m a lifelong dog lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities. I have two dogs of my own, one who is 12 years old and one who is 4, so I understand the different needs of both senior dogs and younger, more energetic pets. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, basic routines, and giving pets the extra patience and attention they may need. I know how important it is to feel completely comfortable with the person caring for your pet, so I treat every dog as if they were my own. I’m reliable, attentive, and happy to provide updates and photos while you’re away so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Pet care fits easily into my routine, and I have flexibility throughout the week for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal schedule and make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and companionship while you’re away. I treat every pet like I would my own. I have two dogs, including a senior dog, so I understand that every pet has different needs, routines, and comfort levels. I’m careful about doors, leashes, feeding instructions, medications, and keeping pets safe and comfortable. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow their normal routine as closely as possible.

About: I’ve been around dogs of all shapes and sizes essentially my entire life. I’ve dog sat for a multitude of family friends as well as caring for my own dogs at home extremely well from training them in their puppy stages all the way to caring for them in their senior lives. I genuinely love all dogs and would be more than happy to help love yours as well! I’m currently a commuting student at DePaul University in Chicago, meaning I travel in and out of the city most of the morning. However, my afternoons are almost always free and I have no classes on Friday’s or during weekends so I’m even more available during them. I help care extensively for my own dog at home as well as having experience caring for dogs in an overnight stay setting with various family friends as well, so staying overnight for a dog is no issue in anyway to me.

About: I’ve been surrounded by pets all my life, being there for them is all I know now. I made it my passion to be caring of them. I recently left a dog daycare looking for a better way to make dogs comfortable while knowing they aren’t under any other rules than the ones in their very own home. I also am loving the idea of them all getting their own special treatment. I am willing to do early mornings or late nights I’m free all around. I just want every dog or cat to be satisfied. I usually wake up and walk outside to make sure I’m getting proper sunlight and one thing about a pet is they are always down for outside time. I’ll make sure your dog eats and gets hydration in the morning and take them outside to use the bathroom relax or play in the next 30 to 45 minutes for about a hour or two, if it is too hot outside I won’t have them out too long and I will make sure they cool off before giving them water. Your dog will always be safe and okay in my hands I’m very attentive

“Emily did an awesome job doing drop-in visits with Sierra. She is great with communication, came for a meet n greet first and followed instructions for the visits. Sierra absolutely loved having her come over to play fetch in the yard, she got belly rubs, fed her treats and made sure she had fresh water before she left. I would absolutely have Emily again…she did a great job all around!”

About: I grew up on a farm and we've always had 3 dogs and 2 cats along with a plethora of other animals. I know how to ensure safety and have a clear head when things go awry. I absolutely adore dogs and cats of all ages and can competently take care of any range of behaviors. I'm a ballerina and a personal trainer. But I will absolutely check in, walk or play with your pet any chance that I get! Normally it would be in the morning or near the evening. My schedule is more open on the weekends. I am a very precautious person when it comes to the safety of your pets. I always double check instructions and make sure the door or cage is secure before I leave. I also will give them all the love and attention they could want.

“Angela did a wonderful job watching our dog. She came 3 times a day for walks and feeding. We could tell that Leine was well taken care of. Definitely will use Angela and River again.”

“Jacquelyn and Ryan arrived on time and immediately connected with my senior fur babies. They were gentle and kind to me (as I am recovering from surgery and can't do much yet) and to my dogs. I trusted them and look forward to using their services again soon!”

About: Having grown up surrounded by dogs of all shapes and sizes, caring for pets is a lifelong passion that comes naturally to me. As a current dog owner, I deeply understand the day to day devotion, patience, and love required to keep a pet thriving. Over the years, I’ve built extensive hands on experience sitting and walking dogs for numerous families, comfortably handling everything from energetic puppies who need structured routine to gentle senior dogs who require an extra patient touch. I am fully confident working with all breeds, managing various temperaments, and safely administering medications. Whether it’s an energetic outdoor walk or a calm, attentive evening at home, I treat every dog in my care with the exact same dedication, safety, and affection I give my own. My hybrid work setup offers exceptional flexibility for pet care, allowing me to be fully present and available throughout the week. Because I only work in the office two days a week and work remotely the other three days, I can easily accommodate midday walks, drop-in visits, or house sitting. This flexible schedule ensures your dog will receive attentive, reliable care, flexible check-ins, and consistent companionship without distraction. To ensure the highest level of safety and comfort, I exclusively provide pet care in the client’s home, allowing your dog to stay happy and secure in their familiar environment. Being in their own space minimizes stress and keeps their regular routines uninterrupted. While caring for your pet, I prioritize safety above all else, ensuring doors and gates remain secure, maintaining clear feeding and exercise guidelines, and treating your home with total respect. I believe peace of mind comes from clear communication, so I provide frequent updates, photos, and notes after every visit or stay. You can rest easy knowing your dog is receiving attentive, high quality care and endless affection while you’re away.
