Dog Sitting Lincoln Park

About: About Me 🐾 Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for both dogs and cats. I grew up with my dog, Lucy, and two cats, so animals have always been a big part of my life. For the past three years, I’ve also been a proud dog parent to my pup, Omelette! As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to have someone you can genuinely trust with your pets. I’ll treat yours with the same patience, attention, and care that I give my own — whether that means a long walk, some playtime, keeping them company, or just making sure they feel comfortable while you’re away. I work during the day but have a flexible schedule outside of work, making me available for evening walks, drop-in visits, overnight stays, and other pet-care needs. I’m happy to work with your pet’s normal routine and follow any specific feeding, walking, medication, or care instructions you provide. I’m comfortable caring for both cats and dogs and understand that every animal has their own personality. Whether your pet is energetic and ready for an adventure, shy and needs some patience, or would rather spend the evening curled up on the couch, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at. Most importantly, I want you to be able to leave your pet knowing they’re in good hands — and I’m always happy to send plenty of pictures and updates along the way! 🐶🐱 I work a full-time schedule, but I have plenty of flexibility outside of work to provide reliable pet care. I’m available for evening walks and drop-ins during the week, as well as overnight stays and more flexible care on weekends. I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine and make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and company while you’re away. I treat every pet as if they were my own and understand how important it is to feel comfortable with the person caring for them. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual routine, personality, feeding schedule, medications, exercise needs, and boundaries. I’ll always follow your instructions closely, keep your home secure, and provide regular updates and photos so you know your pet is safe, comfortable, and getting plenty of love.

“Chelsea and her kids were wonderful with our puppy, Mainie! She is very communicative with changes which I appreciated. The photos of our pup were so wonderful to see! Our dog seemed to love her and her kids which is great!”

“Just wow - kristina is a TOP TIER cat sitter! One of my kittos was scared and wouldn’t come out - she was relentless in coaxing him out and has now throughly bonded with him. I’m so grateful! Her persistence and kitty know-how helped me feel so comfortable and sweet relief that my kitties were in good hands.”

About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for both dogs and cats. I also volunteer at St. Hubert’s Animal Welfare Center, where I socialize with dogs and cats, take dogs on walks, play with them, and help with their overall care. I’m comfortable feeding pets, providing fresh water, playing with them, and giving them plenty of attention and companionship. I’m an active person, so longer walks and hikes are always a pleasure, especially for energetic dogs! I’m also happy to handle the less glamorous parts of pet care. If your pet has an accident inside the house, I have no problem cleaning it up and making sure everything is left clean and comfortable. Most importantly, I’ll treat your pets with patience, care, and lots of attention while you’re away. I work a hybrid schedule, which gives me plenty of flexibility for pet care throughout the week. I’m available for morning, midday, afternoon, and evening visits, depending on the day and your pet’s needs. On weekends, I’m available throughout the day and can easily accommodate walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and longer visits. Safety is always my priority. I prefer to keep dogs on a leash during walks and make sure they’re secure and comfortable at all times. Depending on your preferences and your dog’s routine, I can supervise them in the backyard, take them for walks around the neighborhood, or bring them to a dog park for some exercise and playtime. I’ll always follow your instructions and make sure your dog gets the type of activity they’re used to.

About: I started out helping friends and colleagues with their pets, and it quickly grew into caring for high-profile families/individuals who need someone they can trust. I know your time is valuable and your privacy maybe is non-negotiable. I am here to provide a seamless, stress-free experience for your dog, ensuring they get the exercise and care they need while you’re busy with your day. Why clients choose me: • Total Discretion: I have years of experience working with high-profile households. I value your privacy and maintain a low-profile, professional presence at all times if needed. • Reliable & Hands-On: You are getting one-on-one attention from someone who understands the demands of a busy lifestyle. Whether you are just running errands for the day, need some “you time”, family event or stuck at the office late - I am available to bring peace of mind so you know your dog(s) is taken care of. Your dog(s) will never be around any other dogs as your time is solely YOUR time. • Experience: I have worked with puppies, senior dogs, dogs with special diets, dogs needing medication & even dogs that tend to be dog-aggressive. I am focused on providing the best possible care for your dog. I’m happy to chat about how I can make your daily routine easier and ensure your pet is always in great hands. Because I work fully remotely, I have the kind of flexibility that most pet care providers don’t. While others are juggling multiple clients and strict appointment windows, I am able to provide a much more consistent, reliable presence for your pet with the proper communication. Since I am not tied to a traditional office or a rigid 9-to-5, I am able to: • Provide True Flexibility: I don’t have to rush through visits. If your dog needs extra time to warm up, a longer walk, or a mid-day play session, I have the time to make that happen. • Offer Peace of Mind: Being remote means I am always nearby. Last minute client at work? Deciding to go-to happy hour with some friends? I am just a text message away. *I do have 2 days a week where I have work meetings I need to attend so scheduling may need to work around that if services are needed during those times.” Since I believe dogs thrive in their own environment, I do not bring any dogs to my place of residence, If I am at a clients home, I set-up complimentary meet & greets prior to any service being provided so we can all get to know eachother & you are comfortable with me being in your home & around your pups

“Great at everything. I used her service multiple times and she’s been awesome at timing, service and goes above and beyond. I will definitely recommend her and will continue using her moving forward.”

“Aletris was amazing! They were incredibly attentive and sweet with our kitty and went above and beyond our expectations. Aletris took the job very seriously and made sure nothing would get in their way of taking care of our fur baby, (even if that means resorting to biking to our house when their family needed their car)! We can’t express how happy we are to have found Aletris and I know our kitty felt the same way! Will definitely be hiring them again for future pet sitting needs!”

“Yaneira is great! She watched my kitty Sydney for over a week and did exactly what I asked for and more! I truly felt comfortable being on vacation knowing that Sydney was in Yaneira's hands. She is professional and loves animals, which was easy to tell from when she met Sydney. I will definitely be using Yaneira again the next time I need to go out of town. She is very responsible and committed :)”

About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience with animals and my hands-on care in different situations. I’ve been taking care of my own dogs, cats, and bunnies since I was six years old, so I understand daily routines, exercise needs, and how to keep pets happy and safe. I’ve also helped my grandmother care for cats through the Start Foundation, where I learned patience, gentle handling, and how to look after multiple animals at once. Because of this, I’m comfortable with pets of all ages—from energetic puppies and kittens who needs attention to older pets who require a calmer, more careful approach. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and needs, making sure they feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I’ve always had responsibilities taking care of animals at home. I’m used to planning my day around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and making sure pets get the attention they need. I’m consistent and organized, so I can easily stick to a pet’s routine and follow any specific instructions. On a weekly basis, I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to be reliable and available for regular visits or last-minute needs. Taking care of pets is something I genuinely enjoy, so I make it a priority to give them quality time, whether that’s exercise, play, or just keeping them company. For dog walking, I make sure each walk is safe, structured, and tailored to the dog’s energy level and needs. I follow your usual route or preferences, keep dogs securely leashed, and pay close attention to their behavior and surroundings. During walks, I allow time for exercise, bathroom breaks, and a positive interactions so they stay happy and engaged. For drop-in visits, I focus on maintaining your pet’s normal routine. This includes feeding, refreshing water, cleaning up after them, and spending quality time with play or companionship so they don’t feel lonely. I also keep an eye on their overall behavior and well-being, making sure everything seems normal while you’re away. For cats, I make sure they are safely in their home and always being careful about opening the door so they don't escape. I take my time till they get to know me. In both cases, I respect your home, follow all instructions carefully, and provide dependable, attentive care so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up in a big family of pet lovers where dogs and cats were always running around, so caring for animals comes naturally to me! I currently have three dogs of my own, including my sweet 15 yr old yorkie and a lively tuxedo kitten. Because of my experience with my senior dog and my kitten, I’m comfortable with everything from high-energy kitten playtime to gentle, attentive care for senior pets who need extra patience or meds. As a nursing student, I bring a detail oriented, calm, and responsible approach to every visit, ensuring your pets feel safe, loved, and pampered while you’re away. I am currently in nursing school, which gives me great availability in the afternoons and evenings for walkies, drop-in visits, feeding, and play sessions. I am also fully open and available for overnight house sitting! I make sure to structure my routine around your pet’s exact schedule so their day feels completely seamless. Your pet’s health, safety, and comfort are my top priorities. I treat every home with respect and treat every animal like my own family. During house sitting or drop-ins, I stick strictly to your feeding, walking, and medication instructions, send frequent photos and updates, and ensure your home stays secure. My nursing background means I’m naturally attentive to subtle changes in energy, behavior, or comfort.

About: I LOVE animals. I believe that caring for them is one of my purposes in life. I have been caring for foster/rescue animals over the last 5 years. I have my own cats and dogs and I have also also been fostering animals through rescues such as Eleventh Hour Rescue and Jersey Pit Rescue. I have worked with all kinds of temperaments and breeds, such as pibble & bully breeds, huskies, terriers, chihuahuas, newborn and young puppies, newborn and young kittens, adult and elderly aged cats, as well as both rescue cats and dogs with specific medical needs. I am currently open to working part-time as I teach during the school year. During the summer I can work flexibly, and during the school year I can help on evenings and weekends. I can additionally help with pet sitting or walking. I can also do house visits in general. I have a fence for my own pups and rescue animals. I can help with crating animals and keeping them safe in their homes. I am flexible and excited to help your family!

About: With years of caring for pets belonging to family and friends, I’ve developed a deep understanding of animal needs and behavior. Ever since welcoming our family dog five years ago, I’ve become especially skilled at working with puppies with care and consistency. I treat every pet like my own, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away! I am currently a college student so I have some extra time to spend with your pets! My schedule allows me to accommodate last minute bookings. Everyone has a different way for caring for their pet. I will be sure to treat your animal with kindness and love like I treat my own but also enforce the same “rules” you may have for your pet.

“I had a wonderful experience with Ligiane! Her thoughtfulness and excellent communication skills put me at ease while I was away. They kept me updated regularly and went the extra mile to ensure I felt comfortable as a first time with a cat sitter and my cat was well taken care of. I highly recommend their services to anyone in need of a reliable and caring animal sitter.”
