About: I treat every dog like they’re my own—with patience, love, and lots of play! What sets me apart is my hands-on experience caring for both energetic puppies and senior dogs who need a gentler touch. Hi! I’m a part-time worker at an pharmacy and nursing student at NIU with a flexible schedule and a big heart for animals. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine, and I truly enjoy spending time with pets, it’s a fun and relaxing break from school and work. I’m reliable, responsible, and bring the same care and attention to animals as I do in my nursing studies. Whether it’s a walk, a cuddle session, or just keeping them company while you’re away, your pets will be in loving hands! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I will try to stick closely to their usual routine feeding times, walks, playtime, and any special instructions you provide. I will make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and stress free while you’re away. I always keep things clean, stay respectful of your space, and give your pet the attention they need to feel comfortable. Whether your pet loves cuddles, playtime, or just quiet company, I adapt to their needs and personality to ensure they’re happy and well cared for.

“Cora was great with our senior dog. We are very happy with her service. She was prompt and professional and provided a detailed explanation of her visit along with photos. We felt so comfortable leaving our dog in her capable hands.”

About: Animals are my safe space, they’ve truly helped me my entire life and caring for them is so incredibly rewarding. Fur babies truly are amazing!

I have lots of animal toys, as well as lots of hands on experience playing with animals! I will more than happily play with them just with my hands/arms💖

About: I have always had a pet in the house since before i could walk. I love every single different type of pet and have had just about every type of pet you can have. I am a super active girl so I would love to hangout and play with the younger hyper pets but I can also relax and take care of the older senior pets. I have trained all my own dogs but i wouldn’t call myself a pro. But, if I could help out and I needed to help train i would be more than willing to. I am currently working part-time for 2 different jobs right now, but still have a ton of free time to be able to take care of your pets! I am not actively in school so the only schedule we have to work around is my work schedule but that should be to hard:) I would be able to walk the dogs and could quickly learn their routines and what the owner preferences are. With cats I would help with litter boxes if needed and would gladly play and hangout with the cats. Along with the dogs aswell of course.

About: I had family pets throughout my childhood that I would help take care of. Now, I have 2 dogs of my own! they are both two years old and have a ton of energy. I have a very flexible schedule with my other job. I am mostly always available to pet sit or take your dog for a walk, unless I am traveling. I have an adorable friendly golden retriever and high energy ausiedoodle that always wantto play, I have many toys and treats, and a crate if needed. If your fur baby needs anything specific gladly let me know!

About: I have a lifetime of experience providing trustworthy and loving care for dogs and cats, keeping them safe, active, and healthy. I’d love to provide the care your pet needs while you are away or tied up at work. I’m a 65-year-old retired former Marine, grandpa who loves dogs and cats. I am looking to supplement my Social Security. I would love to provide reliable care for your pets. I care for all dogs and cats in a loving compassionate and patient manner. We can discuss your pet’s needs, and I will follow all instructions accordingly.

“Vlad did a great job with my two dogs, Lily and Leo. He was prompt, courteous, and professional. It was my first time leaving my dogs alone and I was a little uncertain how they'd react, but everything went perfectly. Vlad even improvised a little bit - I hadn't anticipated rainy weather and he handled just fine, locating some towels in my garage and drying the dogs off. He stayed in communication with me with every walk. I would recommend him without reservation.”

About: I've taken care of pets since I was a teenager. Pets that belonged to my sister to pets that have belonged to my neighbors. I have experience feeding and walking dogs. I'm currently in between jobs at the moment, but that'll change in a little while. So, take advantage while you can. Of course, when I do get a job, I'll still make time to care for your pet! I'm always dependable to feed your pet on time and walk your pet for however long is needed. I also enjoy playing and interacting with your pet.

I have a flexible schedule at my full-time job. I am great communicator to coordinate the schedule that is needed. There is freedom in what I do. I will always go by a routine that is provided. Its important to keep feeding and walks on what your animal already knows. I love animals and fell patience and calmness is important.

About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life and love playing and walking dogs of all size and breed! Dogs have no problem approaching me :) I don't mind dogs jumping on me, I love a playful pup and old dogs that just love to cuddle up. I love teaching dogs tricks and having them show off their tricks to earn rewards such as a belly rub or treat. Dogs are mans best friend and I believe that dogs deserve nothing but the best. We have so many friends and opportunities, however dogs only have us. They look forward to a visitor and walks and play time and I am more that willing to give dogs exactly what they need want and more. Thank you. I work mostly remote so I have high flexibility during the week as well as the weekend. I would be happy to take a break during my work day to help out! We bought a house with a fenced in yard specifically for our dog(s) and we love being able to give that that space to play. Fence or not, I can sure you I will care for your dog the same!

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my lifelong experience and deep understanding of animal care. I grew up with dogs—specifically Alaskan Malamutes—and helped my parents care for them, giving me hands-on experience with large, strong, and high-energy breeds. I’ve also been my sister’s go-to caregiver for her dog, looking after her consistently from the puppy stage into adulthood whenever she’s away. In addition to my experience with dogs, I currently care for six cats of my own, so I’m very familiar with feline behavior, needs, and personalities. Whether it’s feeding, litter box upkeep, medication, or just giving them the right kind of attention, I know how to create a calm and comfortable environment for cats as well. I’m reliable, communicative, and genuinely care about making sure pets feel safe, loved, and well-cared for in their owner’s absence. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life—I currently care for six cats of my own, so feeding schedules, cleaning litter boxes, giving affection, and monitoring behavior are all built into my daily routine. I'm also used to looking after my sister’s dog when she’s away, which means I regularly take time for walks, playtime, and keeping up with their needs. Whether it's mornings, evenings, or weekends, I have the flexibility and experience to provide consistent, attentive care that fits seamlessly into my schedule. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or a client’s, I focus on creating a safe, loving, and stress-free environment that mirrors their usual routine. I’m attentive to feeding schedules, playtime, walks, litter box or potty breaks, and any special needs like medications or extra cuddles. I treat every pet like family—whether it’s keeping your home clean and respected or making my own space feel like a second home for your furry friend. Regular updates and photos are always part of the care, so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands.

About: I can walk your dog without you having to raise anything more than your finger. I have trained ponies, cats, dogs, I personally trained my dog Bert to do 20+ tricks, listen off-leash and I also gave him overdone training along with, dozens of ponies. Currently I’m in high-school so my schedule is taken up from the morning to mid-day but after that I’m free to do animal training and walking. I don’t provide this service for other people, but personally my dog is spoiled he gets chewy boxes, goes on walks, plays off leash in our non-fenced in backyard and gets premium food and treats.
