About: I’ve taken care of animals ranging from dogs, cats, birds, fish, guinea pigs, spiders and more! I’ve had multiple pets throughout my life and truly enjoy taking care of them :) I’m open to walking, feeding and especially playing! If animals are happy, I’m happy! I’m currently working full time, but am open to checking/walking animals before and after work!! I do occasionally travel for work, both during the week and weekend. However, if given notice in advance, I can watch pets whenever! As I’m renting, I would prefer not to watch animas in my own home. However, as long as you’re comfortable with it, I’m more than happy to take care of your pet(s) at your residence, or place of your choosing. I’m willing to do anything you would need me to do in order to properly care for your pet!
“Zoey was so great with my kitties, and they absolutely loved her! She gave excellent updates and photos and really put my mind at ease while I was out of town. Definitely would rebook with her!!”
“I love that Amy took the time to get to know (and love) Tabasco while we were away from home. I can tell that Tabasco really enjoyed their visits, and got some decent play time in. Hoping to have Amy again in the future for our time away.”
“Beth is awesome. She won over two challenging older kitties. They were not stressed out when we came home. The house was clean and in good condition from when we left it. We highly recommend Beth.”
“Erica did an awesome job watching our two cats while we were out of town. She was an excellent communicator and really went above and beyond providing updates and daily check-ins. We felt very comfortable entrusting our cats and our home with her. Would highly recommend Erica for all your pet needs!”
About: Being completely honest, I haven’t yet had the pleasure to take care of dogs but I do have 7 cats and I can gladly say I love animals! I am currently not working but would love to find a job soon! I am focusing on school at the moment but need to find a side job. I love animals! I have 7 cats of my own and can’t remember what life was before them. I can easily take your pets out without a problem. I am a very patient, calm and loving person when it comes to pets. I believe in treating animals right!
“Beyond grateful that I connected with Lauren and Lauren, and they could help with our cat while our entire family traveled together. Communication is always quick, clear, and helpful. They flagged every visit, and kept me updated with all the details from each house visit for our cat. Will absolutely keep them at the top of the list for any future needs!”
About: I have cared for both small and large animals for over 21 years. Your pet will be staying with a very loving, responsible, and respectful family I work from home so someone is home all day every day. I also have a fenced yard for your dog to roam and go out as needed. I provide meals according to owner's instructions and clean up as needed. Also actively partake in play and exercise for the pets which I genuinely enjoy doing.
“Yailyn did a fantastic job of taking care of my shy kitty! She gave her a pill daily too and was warm and kind which helped my cat warm up to her quickly! Will absolutely be reaching out to Yailyn in the future!!”
“Tara instantly accepted my booking request and was really easy to communicate with leading up to the booking. She gave great reports and photos while doing the drop ins. Thanks Tara!”
About: I have been working and taking care of dogs since I was 8 years old. Family and friends have relied on me to walk, feed, snuggle, and even help train their pups. I'm taking a break from my studies so I have lots of time to play and hangout with your pet! I am available on weekdays and weekends. I offer dog walking, house sitting, and drop-ins. For each, it is up to you on what you would prefer I do with your pup. I am familiar with crating dogs, bathing, and leash training. I am an avid walker, so if your pup loves a good walk- I’m your gal! Let's work together to create the best plan for your pup!!
“Sydney was fantastic with Nut and Scooby. It was great to have someone come in and check on the little fur babies so that they didn't have to be boarded at the vet for so long. Looking forward to traveling again as I'll request her services in a heartbeat!”
About: I offer a warm, calm, loving environment. I allow my pets and yours on my couch and bed. I have space to crate if that is what your dog needs or wants. I’m three blocks to the beach so if your pup likes to walk at the beach we have that available. We spend a lot of time outside if the weather permits. I can give meds and injections if needed. I’m a pet owner myself so we plug in your pet’s needs into our daily routine. Meal times, potty time, can be accommodated and worked around. I treat your pup just like one of my own. I’m always careful to get their collars/harness on correctly. Play is supervised and highly encouraged.
“Chris did a fantastic job getting my scaredy cat to come out from under the bed during her visits. She took extensive notes about the cat during our meet and greet and everything went very smoothly while I was away. She was also very patient and good humored when I managed to lock us out of my place! Highly recommend Chris!”
About: I have had animals in my life ever since I was born. I am a huge dog person and fostered pups before I got my own. I have a chihuahua/mini pincher mix who loves people and other animals, no matter the size! If I am away for work, I constantly watch my pup on the doggy cam. I ensure he gets at least two walks a day, play time at least 3 times a day, and all the snuggles he wants! I've became very skilled at potty training as we went through it living in a high rise. I have a flexible schedule and live/work in Highwood/Highland Park. I have evenings off and do not mind early mornings or weekend appointments! Please let me know how I can help you and your dog! I am an early riser and come by to hang out with my dog for lunch every day. I also have evenings off to enjoy with them whether it’s a long walk or playtime in the house! Tito roams free in the house but I always make sure my pup and the clients get along well before booking. I watch them on the doggy cam while I’m gone and always frequently check in to make sure all is well. My number one concern is making sure everyone is comfortable and happy so I do whatever it takes to ensure that with my clients.
