“They have been awesome getting us through our first month of puppydom! They have been extremely reliable and thorough. Our Mack has been loved. I’m so thankful for their service!”

“We used Taryn for a drop-in visit for a weekend trip; we have an older dog who doesn't like boarding at our vet. She is a little particular and Taryn was very patient with her and sent us photos. We will be using her for a longer vacation later this summer. Thanks for everything, Taryn!”

“Bridget was great with our three pups. Having experience with Shibas before, she was able to understand ours (with all their quirks) easily and took great care of them. She was super friendly, professional, and the dogs loved her. Would definitely recommend and use her again!”


About: I have always loved animals, and have grown up with dogs since I was born! I have been volunteering at local shelters since I was in 7th grade because I can’t get enough of animals. In high school, my family had 5 (decently sized) dogs so I am well versed in taking care of many high energy dogs at once. No dog could surprise me because my dogs have probably done it already. I am a film student at DePaul so my schedule is very wonky compared to other students. I often have large gaps between classes and a lot of free nights, where I spent most of my time writing for my major! Seeing animals throughout my day makes my mood so much better so pet care would make my life a lot lighter in some ways! I am a very fast learner so whatever makes you comfortable or your pet comfortable, that is what I will do! I want your pets to feel loved and cared for, so if that is playing with them, cuddling with them, whatever it may be, I’m there. And whatever quirks they may have, I can adjust to that too. Same for homes, I always expect people to respect my home and the same goes for yours!
“Samantha was the greatest. She gave my cat space while also making sure that she can leave her sent with him. She gave great ideas to help me because this is my first time having a cat sitter. She is so receptive and she gives great advice. She connected with my cat wonderfully, and I truly appreciate what she had done with feeding him and connecting with him. I will use her again. She is definitely my go to and I would highly recommend her.”

“Lauren was amazing! I felt so comfortable having her in my home. She gave me peace of mind that my cat was not alone and well taken care of while I was out of town working. Would recommend and use her again.”

About: I started dog walking when I was 8 years old around my neighborhood. Since then I have had experience with training puppies, senior dog care, and even working with animals in a professional setting. I'm currently a stay at home mom so my schedule is flexible to fit your needs. I love walks at any time of day or night! I have a fenced in back yard and a dog park that is just a walk down the street. I have two dogs to keep your fur baby occupied while staying with me.

About: I have been around all sorts of animals since I was a baby. I had a German shepherd growing up. Now I own a hound mix who is very energetic and keeps me busy which I like. While I was in college I worked at my teams stable and took care of my coaches horses, chickens, and her donkey. Since I own a dog of my own, pet care is in my every day life. I am a server at Dante’s house of pizza. Even with my busy work schedule I still have plenty of time to take my own dog to the park, walk him, and play with him. I want to share my love by taking care of other peoples animals. I can ensure them that their furry friends will be safe in my care. My dog’s name is Gino and he loves being outdoors whenever we can be. He loves going on walks with other dogs. He is really happy when I take him to my friend’s house to play with their dogs. My dog is very spoiled and gets to snuggle up with me in bed. I am responsible to take him to the vet when he needs his yearly check up. I make sure he is well groomed and well fed.
About: I have had dogs in my life since I was 10 years old. My first dog was a beagle pup and I have taken care of dozens of breeds of dogs since then, from chihuahuas to great danes. I have walked the largest of breeds and have trained them as well. I have had friends and family members entrust their dogs to me to care for weekly stays as well as to exercise regularly. Your fur babies will be in good care with me! Also whenever I see a lost dog running around I try my best to catch it and get it back to its owners. My son has been with me several times when this has happened and now he does it too. I am a stay-at-home mom so I can make my availability whatever it needs to be for you and your best fur friend (within reason and safety limits). I have a fenced yard and one friendly dog named Flash. He loves playing with other dogs that come stay with us. The best thing about him is his absolute obedience to my commands. He truly is the smartest dog I've ever had! 💜 While caring for your dog at your home I will follow all of your rules and respect how you wish for your dog to be cared for. Your dogs will be treated like family in my home. I love to take the dogs outside to play or just to soak up some sun when the weather cooperates. Snuggles come at no extra cost in my house, and your pup will be relaxed and happy when you come back. I follow all instructions given to me by my client and give updates on their well-being throughout the duration of their stay. I answer texts and calls quickly. I will not accept dogs that display aggression to other dogs or humans under any circumstances for boarding in my home.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats practically all my life! All my friends and family trust in me to take care of their fur babies whenever need be! I’m currently enrolled in online courses, so I’m usually available on the weekdays after 1pm and I am occasionally available on the weekends after 12pm. In the client’s home I always clean after the fur babies and follow any instructions given. I always look and take care of them as if they were my own!
“Riley did an amazing job checking in on our pup Charlie. She came over and met us ahead of time, sent us updates and pictures, and was very flexible. It really put our mind at ease to know Charlie was well taken care of. We plan on using her again in the future!”
About: I have been watching dogs for friends and family for a few years now, if they are going out of town I have become the first they call. I always go out of my way to make sure that your pet has a good time and enjoys their walks! I have trained my dog and have helped train other dogs that I have taken care of. I am a college student and have a maximum of 3 classes a day so my schedule is open to be there for your pet when needed. Taking care of a dog brightens up my day and I hope to do the same for your pet! I am very respectful of your home and your pet, I follow home care instructions very seriously and will follow boundaries. My overall goal to make sure your pet has the best care possible while respecting your home.

Taryn was absolutely great and would highly recommend her. I booked her last minute and she was very flexible all throughout as I needed to add additional days for Roxy’s visits. Great communication with sending photos and updates on daily basis. I would highly recommend and would definitely use Taryn in the future!
