About: I have had my dog now for almost 10 years. I used to care for my dog as well as a roommates dog at one point. I can give medications and can provide First Aid/Heimlich if needed. Strong enough to hold back and tame my 60 pound Boxer mix. I’ve also helped care/walk my sisters Great Dane and my friends smaller dogs for 7 years or so. I love animals and if you have other little friends who need care, just let me know what to do and I’ll do it. I work night shift as an ICU Nurse so I’m home all day. I can pop in and check on your babies any time during the day. I would need to know in advance only cause I do eventually sleep during the day. I’m aware you are trusting me with one of the most important members of your family, I’ll be happy to leave a photo and an update of any changes , good or bad, so you can enjoy some peace of mind that everything is alright.

About: Hi, I’m Samantha! I’ve had all types of pets my whole life and enjoy taking care of animals big or small. I’m a Veterinary Assistant with knowledge on animal temperaments and proper care. I've worked with animals with diverse medical conditions, including my own pets. I am able to recognize signs of discomfort or distress, which will allow me to notify you if any concerns arise during my visit. During my free time I spend it with my 8 fur-babies. I have experience with dogs, cats, ferrets, and guinea pigs. I would love to meet your animals! I treat each pet as if they were my own and give them all the love and attention as possible. Due to my veterinary background, I'm comfortable and experienced with 🐾cat grooming (nail trims) 🐾dog grooming (nail trims) 🐾giving subcutaneous fluids I bring professional and loving care to every visit. Whether your pet needs an attentive drop-in, an enriching walk, or a calm presence for medication time I am there to help!

I am available weekends during the evenings, along with open availability on Monday's, Tuesday's, Thursday's and Friday's.

About: I've owned and cared for all kinds of animals my whole life. Professionally, I have experience working as a dog handler, kennel attendant, dog bather, and groomer. I also have extensive experience working and caring for cats, horses, and various small animals. My +3 years working at a dog daycare facility had me safely handling a pack of up to 25 dogs; providing exercise & engagement, soft corrections, and positive reinforcement. To do so, it was necessary to be observant and in tune with the dog's behavior and always on the lookout for any signs of stress or aggression. As a bather and groomer, I was focused on hygiene but a large aspect of the job relied on my knowledge of dog behavior and training techniques. I've owned cats my entire life and have worked with a TNR rescue the past few years getting pregnant females and unneutered male cats fixed and adopted. I also have pet care insurance with animal baliee coverage in case of emergencies. I always care for every animal as if they are my own and I understand how important it is for them to feel comfortable and loved. I work part-time on the night shift, so I'm usually out of the house between 9:30pm and 2am Monday through Friday. Outside of that- my schedule is flexible. I am available on most weekends and holidays. I only book one client at a time for pet sits and boarding, so your pet(s) will have my full attention. I live in a quiet suburban neighborhood with a huge, unfenced yard. I own a variety of animal care supplies and equipment.

“Desiree was amazing! She organized a meet & greet and I was able to walk her through my pets routine. She took notes & was in communication with me while I was away. I will definitely book again.”

About: I know its hard to trust someone with your best fur pal. After all, pets are far more than just a roommate that doesnt pay rent; they truly become family. With that being said, I make a strong effort to continually keep pet parents updated on their beloved baby. I maintain constant communication and will always ask "silly" questions before making any kind of decisions regarding the pets in my care. Im very aware that pet parents are giving me the ultimate privilege of caring for their pets and I intend to uphold such privilege 🙏🐾. My active lifestyle allows me to provide stimulating + fun exercises & activities for doggies of all kind. I hope to meet you + your fur pal very soon, say WOOF! 🐾 I am a full time rover sitter, and I maintain an active lifestyle. I love being outdoors and taking walks at Montrose Dog beach in Chicago. Dogs parks are also a common place we like to visit Feed all dogs separately if multiple dogs are in my home. Access to water 24/7, I have multiple water bowls around my apartment. 1 cage in case someone needs private time. Trips to the dog park under owner's consent.

“Amanda was great! She was on time and great with our dog. She followed all instructions and communicated well with us. We are grateful for her help!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for 10 years now. I’ve taken care of many dogs from my moms clients dogs, my family dogs, my sisters dog and her friends dogs. This is something that I enjoy doing and I will make sure that I give the care that your dog deserves. To keep them entertained and engage with them. I’m currently working part time. So I have plenty of time on my hands and my schedule is very flexible! I also have a car so I haven’t problem commuting. I have a big fenced yard to keep your fur ball safe and a lot of room for them to run around. I’m very detail oriented so I’ll follow any schedule you give me and keep their dietary needs in mind.

About: I’ve taken care of my two dogs ever since I was a little girl, when no one else were able to provide for them. I love my dogs to death and enjoy being around dogs. Enjoying the company of other dogs is the reason why I chose this job. Pet care fits into my daily/weekly routine because I love walking/running outside during the day. It helps me get my steps in and I love nature walks. It helps me get a breath of fresh air and relieve my mind. Being around animals makes me really happy and I love their energy. My two dogs are more than enough to melt my heart so I cannot imagine what more furries will do! I have a nice tall fence with a perfect sized back yard for dogs to run around and play in! I have two friendly dogs who adore any company by any furry babies! But if needed to separate, I can always accommodate to that as well!

“Melanie is great! Very professional and always keeps me informed of when she arrives, and of their walk. My dog always looks forward to her arrival and walk :) i would recommend her to anyone.”

About: Available on some weekdays and weekends, will incorporate lots of exercise and playtime, have years of experience with caring for dogs, like my dog Benji. I don’t prefer to do house-boarding just because my current family dog isn’t dog-friendly with others. Because I grew up without a dog and have always wanted one, I was hoping to fulfill that gap with caring for other dogs. I am responsible enough to ensure everything will go smoothly, and have a calm demeanor in case of emergencies. Having always been a dog lover, I can provide you with the service of being rest assured that the relationship between your dog and me will be a reciprocal and enjoyable one! No guarantees of feelings not becoming attached however! If you are looking for an involved, energetic playmate for your dog or simply a caretaker, I can be of generous service to you and your dog.

About: I have taken a dog behavior training at a local shelter. I have dog sat for family members for multiple days (in house and my home ) Unfortunately I work during the week. I am free Saturday and Sunday to pet sit or just to give your fur baby some love and attention for a couple hours while you’re away. I do not have pets of my own due to housing circumstances. While in a client’s home I ensure that all potentially dangerous items are out of reach and secure from the pets. I give pets their space when showing signs of distress. As well as make sure they have their favorite comfort items.

About: I’ve taken care of my pet dog Bruno since he was a puppy, me and my family adopted him back in 2023 and now he’s turning 3 in May this year. I’m usually free throughout the week and I will always have plenty of time to care for them and for any of their needs! I will always make sure to speak with their owner first if they have any special needs and ask if there are certain instructions written down that will need to be followed regarding of their pets.

About: I’ve had a dog in our lives for the past 12 years who passed away a couple months ago. We rescued 3 kittens in 2021. Jack is our oldest cat and he is quite a character. Luz is our middle cat and she is the sweetest little thing to look at/she loves to talk. Baby is our not so little baby and is such a friendly loving cat. I’m currently working 80% remote from home during the week and available on the weekends. Having my cats at home have kept me company and make the day go by faster. My cats have free range of our home and no restrictions. They have their favorite spots to nap during the day which is our bathroom, under my teenagers beds and on my bed while I work. We have snack and play time but mostly love to lounge during the day. We’re looking to add some additional character in our environment. Our home will be your pets second home.

About: I am careful to heed owners instructions on how to care for their furbaby to create peace of mind and maintain a respectful relationship between the animals and humans. I work Full-time on the weekend. I can accept reservations and check-ins starting by 3PM on Mondays. Pets must be checked-out/picked up by 3PM Saturday. Currently have 2 Siberian huskies to entertain your pooch. Both huskies are well-socialized and engage very well with other canines. House is cleaned and sanitized on the daily to prevent any contagious illnesses. Exercise is done through nature trails in the area. If owners are comfortable with dog parks, I am a member to multiple private dog parks to ensure privacy and freedom to run around from other unauthorized/stranger canines.

About: My name is Brianna and I have grown up with dogs my whole life. I currently have 2 in my home, a friendly and sweet whippet/greyhound mix who is 9 years and a energetic and curious German boxer. I have experience with puppies through older adult dogs as well as small breeds through extra large. I work from home so am able to accommodate most schedules. I have 3 years of experience administering both oral medications and injections for dogs needing medical support. My home is quiet, child free and comfortable for both older dogs needing place to rest as well as energetic pets ready to play! Send me a message and I would be happy to set up a meet and greet with you and your pet.

About: I had a small dog when I was a kid, but more recently I’ve been dog sitting and training my friends and families dogs. I finished college and currently working towards my career so I don’t have enough time for a pet of my own but would want to share my love for pets with my community! I’m currently working part-time so I’d be able to play/walk your pups any weekday after 3! Weekends are more flexible depending on what you need. I have a fenced in yard at my home for your pets! Big enough to run around but always within eyesight. I do know how to easily crate dogs if needed!
