Pet Sitting & Drop Ins In Medical Center

About: I’ve been pet sitting for my friends and family for about 2 years! I also have two dogs and have always been caring for dogs for as long as I can remember. I’ve been working at a doggy daycare for almost 2 years now, so I have plenty experience in pet care! I currently just work as a part time employee and part time student. I do get about a 1 to 2 hour break in-between shifts. I also am able to get up early in the mornings before heading to school and work. I don’t work Saturdays or Tuesdays, so those days I’m very flexible! I’m normally able to move my schedule around to try and be flexible, I just normally need 2 weeks in advance to fix that flexibility! I currently live in an apartment, but I walk my two dogs on my off days about every 2 hours. When I’m working I just take my dogs with me to work so they have plenty of run around room! I also use treat puzzles or squeaky toys to keep them entertained and going! I always enjoy taking pets out for rides in the car, I always ask first before taking any dog anywhere that isn’t mine. My older dog can be a little snappy, so I don’t bring him around any of the dogs I dog sit. My younger dog is very playful however and loves everyone! Shes always looking for another playmate. However I do always ask first before I ever bring her to meet other dogs or pets! I also believe in a lot of love and cuddles!! 💚 I will always make sure your pets are comfortable and safe and feel loved! When caring for others people’s pets I always ask upfront questions about what is okay and what is not. Every dog and pet is different and have completely different personalities. I will adhere to their comfortability and personality!

“Ashleigh was fantastic!! She met with my mom to go over her senior dog’s care, which is pretty extensive, and was detailed and prompt with her care. She was communicative and provided lots of hangout time in addition to the basic care we asked of her. Highly recommended!”

About: I have had many years of animal care! I have been volunteering in animal shelters since I was 16 and have previously walked dogs in Chicago for a few months! Most recently, I was on a volunteer team that helped train rescued puppy litters. I am currently a dental student that does not have the time for a full time job, but will always make time for some furry friends! I live in a gated apartment community with grassy areas within. There are no other animals in my apartment. My area is very walkable and I would love to be able to do so with your pet!

“Jodie has been our go to cat sitter. She is very dependable and responsive. She dropped in to take care of our kitties even during harsh weather conditions this time. Would definitely recommend her.”

“Darcy saved us when our sitter cancelled days before we left for vacation. She took very good care of our cat and went above and beyond keeping us updated on everything. I would recommend her to anyone needing their pets cared for!”

“Patsy is wonderful with my cats. She is so reliable and comes at the appointed time every day. She plays with them and sends great photos She started feeding them separately when she realized my boy cat was slightly bullying his sister!! She is quick to contact me if needed, but knows I’m on vacation and won’t bother me unless needed. I know my cats are in great hands when she is on the job!!”

“Amanda took care of Lanie and sent pictures to let me know that Lanie was happy and cared for. She also took on feeding some outdoor cats that have chosen my house as their base. Amanda was always timely in her visits and took time to secure a couple of package deliveries during my time away. I will likely contact her again when I need care for Lanie to see if she can accommodate my schedule. I appreciate her willingness to take on the extras. Thank you, Amanda.”

About: I love dogs, cats, and exotics. I have been pet-sitting for friends and family for years and always love to bring happiness to everyone’s pets. I have worked with special needs animals such as lower paralysis, incontinence, and special diets and feeding instructions. My own dog has even had experiences where urinary catheters and IVs are needed at home. I am well experienced, patient, loving, and communicative. I prioritize the pets I look after and will adjust my schedule as needed for your pet. I can be a lazy bed bug with your pet or an active play buddy and walker. I have an open schedule where I can even spend 24 hours straight with your fur-baby. I will do my best to keep to an exact schedule of what you have for your fur-baby to make an easy transition when watching. I can also execute an entirely different schedule if wished. I am fully open to meeting both yours and your fur-babies goals and expectations.

“We had a great experience with Allison. She let our dogs out while we were away on a day trip. Arrived right on time and sent us pics of the babies.”

Sara M.

“Rachel went above and beyond my expectations! It usually takes my dog awhile to warm up to new people but he warmed up to her in just a couple days. She was reliable and professional and uploaded great pictures to my dog's report card. My very shy cat even came out to say hi. I will definitely use her services again. Thank you Rachel we appreciate you!”
