About: I’m fully insured to make sure your pet and your home are always safe and protected. I’ve had pets in my life for as long as I can remember, and taking care of them has always felt natural to me. Since I was a teenager (I’m 31 now), I’ve looked after dogs and cats for friends, family, and neighbors, and I’ve loved every minute of it. Ever since I was a kid, I’ve just really cherished being around animals, even the ones who aren’t super cuddly. I have a lot of patience and respect for each pet’s personality and comfort level, and I do my best to make them feel safe, happy, and cared for while their people are away. I work full time during the week and try to stay busy on the weekend, but I will absolutely work my weekend schedule around you/your pet’s needs. I have a big fenced backyard and plenty of space inside for house-trained pets to relax, whether that’s on the couch, a comfy chair, or the floor. I share my home with one dog, a terrier mix named Minnie. She’s playful and friendly, but if your dog prefers to keep to themselves, I can easily keep them separated. Older dogs sometimes find her a bit too energetic, while younger pups usually have a great time playing with her.

About: As long as I can remember I have a dog, cat , or rabbit. Sometimes all three at once. My friends tell me that when they die they want to come back as my pet. I am a gardener in our neighborhood (River Forest) and stay local.I have extra time take care of all pets. It's a perfect compliment to my routine. We currently have a 2 year old golden retriever and make sure she gets the basics - food, water, walks but most important is providing plenty of love and attention.

“Tetiana took such wonderful care of our two cats, Dexter and Charlie, while staying at our home. Dexter is a senior cat who needs extra attention and daily supplements, and she went above and beyond by even taking him to the vet for his IV shots. We’re so thankful for the love and care she gave them while we were away. She kept us updated the whole time with messages and photos, which really put us at ease and let us enjoy our trip knowing our little guys were in the best hands.”

She handled a deaf and visually impaired 1.5y/o Aussie like she'd lived with him her whole life. Everyone was happy, safe, and sound upon our return.”

About: I've had cats and dogs and taken care of them since I was a child. Animals, and dogs specifically, have always been a huge part of my life. I recently was a dog dad to the two most wonderful miniature schnauzers on Earth and unfortunately, lost them both in the two years. I'm here to spend time with some wonderful dogs and give them the love and care that I can no longer give my own. Thanks for reading! I have a nice work schedule with lots of flexibility. I am off many days in the early afternoon and have afternoon and evening availability during the week and full availability on the weekends. I live in a great area that is safe with great walking spaces and super nice dog parks that are very close to my residence.

Wonderful communication and lots of photos which made our trip much more enjoyable not worrying about our pup. Natalie was a super considerate, professional, and caring. You can tell she just “gets” animals. Strider seemed himself and very well taken care of when we returned. When our flight was delayed, Natalie also graciously added an extra walk. So glad we found her!”

We truly appreciated his communication and the way he cared for our fur babies. Eddie also respected our home, leaving it just as we had left it. It was as if no one had been there at all! Thanks so much Eddie for loving our babies.”

We had a wonderful experience with Ariel! She was extremely responsive and communicative throughout our time away, which gave us so much peace of mind. She took excellent care of our animals and treated our home with great care as well. Everything was just as we left it, and our pets were clearly happy and well-loved. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful pet sitter and absolutely plan to use her services again.

Jamie was great with Kenai while we were away! We came home to a spotless apartment which was great, and she was kind enough to pick up packages for us too. He was well taken care of, especially considering the circumstances of it being negative temps in the morning. Would book for dog house sitting again :)
