About: Growing up with and caring for my own dog has taught me how important patience, consistency, and attention are when it comes to pets. I’m very attentive to a dog’s behavior, energy levels, and comfort, and I always make sure they feel safe, cared for, and loved. I also have experience with basic grooming, keeping routines consistent, and giving pets calm, gentle care based on their individual needs and personality. I'm currently looking fo a Pet care fits well into my daily and weekly routine because I’m someone who enjoys staying active, organized, and consistent. While I’m currently looking for a part-time summer job, pet sitting and care is something that also works well with my schedule long-term because it gives me flexibility once I start school again. I’m able to balance responsibilities well, and I enjoy spending time with animals as part of my routine rather than seeing it as just work. job for the summer. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I make sure they are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of attention, playtime, walks if needed, and a clean environment. I’m very attentive to a pet’s behavior and comfort level, and I always try to create a calm, safe, and loving atmosphere while respecting the owner’s instructions and home. I also make sure to give updates so owners feel reassured while they’re away.

“We would 1000% recommend Katie. Katie was kind patient with one of our dogs that takes a little while to warm up to new people, even making a couple trips out to take her on walks before we left. During our time away, a new medical issue came up for our elderly dog. Katie was amazing at communicating with us, taking her to the vet for us, helping 3 way call with the vet while she was there and keeping a watchful eye on her until we could return home. We found our house exactly how we left it, everything tidy and clean. We hands-down will be using Katie again knowing that our dogs will be well loved and taken care of while we’re away”

“Alexis was a fantastic sitter. She was very attentive to our pups. One requires meds in her food twice a day and was well taken care of. She stayed with them and kept them comfortable with their separation anxiety from us and played in the yard every day. The house was clean and well maintained when we arrived home. I would highly recommend Alexis, she truly cares about animals and was a great house guest as well”

About: Hello! I work remotely, therefore I am always home. Your dog will not be left unattended. I also have a flexible cancellation policy. I know life can be crazy! I am the ultimate dog lover and will treat your dog like family. I keep my dog healthy with lots of snuggles and daily walks. Your dog will receive that same care that my Fur baby receives. I can also accommodate more than one pet; the more the merrier. You can call any time to check on your baby. I am always available to talk. I have a big fenced yard and a cozy home. Your dog will always be welcomed on my lap and couch. ❤️ Since I work from home full time I have lots of time to hang out with the dogs in my yard. They are like my little coworkers! I usually take the dogs on 2 walks a day but if you have a preference on more or less, I can do that. How do I ensure your dog is safe during their visit? I have a small friendly chihuahua. He loves making new friends and sharing his toys. My yard is treated monthly for fleas and ticks (All pet friendly treatments). The yard is secure with a tall fence and no gaps. My dog is up to date with his vaccines. Please let me know if your furbaby has a set schedule if not they will follow our routine. They get plenty of supervised play time and potty breaks throughout the day. I regularly vacuum and mop my house. All furniture also gets vacuumed daily. I use pet friendly flea prevention methods inside and outside my house. We get our house and yard professionally treated to avoid ticks and fleas. But I ask that you also keep your pet on flea preventatives. All dogs that come in must be vaccinated. Please do not bring your pup if they are showing any symptoms. (Runny stools, coughing, runny nose)

About: I've had dogs my whole life including senior dogs and large dogs. I have experience in drop-in sitting for several days at a time. I've taken care of three small elderly dogs at once, including one that was completely blind and hard of hearing. I'm comfortable walking and bathing larger dogs, as I myself have had a dog over 100 pounds. I do not have professional experience, meaning I've never been paid to dog-sit, but I have been sitting for neighbors and friends for several years. He tenido perros todo mi vida, incluyendo perros grandes y de edad avanzada. Tengo experiencia cuidando perros a domicilio durante varios días seguidos. He cuidado a tres perros pequeños y mayores al mismo tiempo, entre ellos uno que era totalmente ciego y tenía problemas de audición. Me siento cómoda paseando y bañando perros grandes, ya que yo misma e tenido un perro de más de 100 libras. No cuento con experiencia profesional, es decir, nunca he cobrado por cuidar perros, pero llevo varios años cuidando los perros de vecinos y amigos. I am a full time university student working part time on my campus! All my classes are scheduled in the morning Monday-Thursday so I’m available after 3 then. Friday-Sunday I can be there for your pets anytime! I do not currently sit in my home, but I do have harnesses and leashes available if you do not already have one. We could discuss whether the leashes and harnesses I own are a good fit for your furry friend! :)

About: I have taken care of multiple dogs and cats for years in different sizes and different care needs. I have watched dogs and cats for family members for days at a time I work from home and can keep an eye on the pets the whole time and take breaks for having to go at anytime that they need. I can feed them and give them medication if necessary. Also no open foods or dangerous things for them to get into. I also do not smoke and have a temperature controlled house

“Very good.”

“Sharett was amazing to work with and my dog Roo absolutely adores her. She was professional and communicative while staying at my home looking after Roo. Her background expertise with dogs shows. She even went above and beyond and continued to help with Roo’s muzzle training as we work on her fear reactivity with other dogs in the big city. If you are in the South Loop Chicago area, I definitely recommend. Thank you Sharett!”

“If you are looking for a dog walker who will love your pups as much as you do, look no further than Syenna! Finding someone you trust completely with your home and pets can be nerve-wracking, but Syenna put all our worries to rest. Our two dogs, Cooper and Scuttle, are absolutely obsessed with her. She doesn’t just take them on routine walks—she gives them great exercise, keeps them safe, and never skips the most important part: the post-walk tummy rubs! The moment she arrives, Cooper and Scuttle start spinning with joy and literally flop at her feet. Syenna is reliable, punctual, professional, and deeply attentive to their individual personalities. Having her in our routine brings us so much peace of mind knowing our dogs are in the best possible hands. Cooper, Scuttle, and our entire family give her 10 out of 5 stars! Thank you, Syenna!”

“David watched our pup Daphne for nearly two weeks and was the best sitter we've ever had. He was incredibly communicative, sent lots of pictures, and spoiled Daphne. He went above an beyond to make sure she was comfortable while we were gone and to make sure we had peace of mind as well. David is the only person we will book for Daphne. She already misses him!”

She also quickly responded when I asked questions. No issues or concerns and will definitely use her for sitting again in the future!”
