Pet Sitting Jefferson Park

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for pets in many different life stages and personalities. I have a 15 year old senior Chihuahua who has been through surgeries and illnesses, and through attentive care, patience, daily walks, and lots of love, she is still healthy, happy, and strong today. I also rescued an adult cat from the street who is now around 3–4 years old. Helping him adjust taught me patience, understanding, and how important it is to make animals feel safe and comfortable. In addition, I have an energetic 8-month-old kitten who keeps me active and experienced with younger pets as well. I am also a runner who’s ran the Chicago marathon, I am prepared to keep up with high energy pups! My pets are truly my family, and I understand how important it is to trust someone with your animals. Under my care, your pets will be treated with the same patience, attention, love, and priority that I give my own. I am available most days of the week for walks and drop-in visits, for house sitting I am mostly available on weekends. I keep my schedule updated daily :) I will care for your pet in your home and always follow your instructions carefully to maintain their normal routine and comfort. I understand how important it is to keep things consistent for animals, so I will make sure to follow all feeding schedules, care notes, and any special directions you provide. I will also provide regular updates so you can feel confident and at ease while you’re away, including messages, photos, and any important notes about how your pet is doing. My goal is to keep you fully informed and reassured. Most importantly, I will care for your pet in the environment where they feel safest and most comfortable, your home, so they can stay relaxed, secure, and stress-free while receiving attentive and loving care.

“Annabel is fantastic! She took great care of my furball and I am grateful for the nice notes and pics while I was gone. It was nice to come home see a happy kitty, and know he was cuddled and had playtime everyday too. Highly recommend!”

“Absolutely thrilled with our cat sitting experience! We’ve had great experiences with Amanda previously, so it was a no-brainer on who to reach out to when we needed help during our latest trip! Amanda took amazing care of our lil guy, with regular updates and adorable photos to put our minds at ease while we were away. Couldn’t have asked for better care, highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable and loving pet sitter!”

About: I am a dog lover who would love to watch over your pet while you’re gone. I have a house in Norwood Park where dogs have free range to roam about and a large fenced in backyard to explore. I am self employed and spend a good amount of time at home. I love dogs & want to use our space to welcome fun visitors! I am home most of the day & am able to let dogs outside & go for walks frequently. If I do need to leave, dogs have free range of the house to explore.

“Karli was great! She was really thorough with daily updates and to my surprise, my apprehensive natured cats, felt very comfortable to interact with her. Thanks again, Karli!”

“Fantastic loving care for my 2 dogs! I have a shy senior rescue and a skittish young dog who both take time to warm up to strangers. We scheduled basic check ins/potty breaks over 4 days that they had to be home alone for 8+ hrs each day. The meet and greet went really well and was easy to set up. Each day my pups received a full 30 minutes of attention and loving care. I received MANY photos and videos as well as really awesome communication and updates. Thank you!”

Mary J.

“So grateful to Keri for coming every day while we were away to administer fluids to our dog! She’s super sweet and friendly. Would give 10 stars if I could!”

About: I have been volunteering with shelter dogs for almost a decade in many capacities-walking, fostering, and training. As a stay-at-home-mom with a son newly in school I’m looking to fill my days with more dog buddies! I’ve owned two senior sweeties and now a puppy, so I have lots of age range experience. I also have practice walking strong pullers and reactive dogs. I treat all dogs like my own family! Most of my availability is in the mornings before noon or in the evenings after 5 on weekdays. Weekends I am available most of the time! However, I have a flexible schedule so please don’t hesitate to reach out with any requests! I offer limited dog boarding in my home-I will only board one dog at a time and they should be good with dogs and kids! I have a fenced yard, a VERY friendly young dog, and lots of availability for walks. Dogs can be crated if needed, and are allowed on all furniture (including the bed) to make them feel as at home as possible.

About: I’ve always loved and taken care of dogs, so I know what it takes to raise a puppy and giving it all the attention and learning how to train them properly to now taking care of my senior dog and making sure he gets all his proper medications and being able to tell from his behavior if something is wrong. I’m working full time so only evenings work for me on being able to walk or visit your pup but the day does not matter I’m available 7 days a week As a dog owner myself making sure there’s a good fence up and clear line of vision to them is the number one safety when In a home
