A Kind, Reliable Professional

Pet care experience

Hi there! 👋 I‘m a caregiver for dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, and ages, as well as small mammals, reptiles, and fish. I enjoy giving my clients peace of mind and their precious babies the utmost love and attention. I’m skilled at administering medication, positive reinforcement training, grooming, and senior pet care. Hiring me means gaining an advocate for you and your pet. 😊

Amber is a kind and attentive cat sitter! She paid attention to our cats' personalities, communicated clearly, and was completely reliable. I highly recommend her!

Amber House and Dog sat for us, and we had an amazing experience. She was respectful of our home, our two labradoodles loved her, and she was a great communicator. She also sent us photos each day of them on their walks! We will definitely book again and highly recommend her.

Amber was absolutely amazing for our girl Mochi. Communicative, active, and very kind. We would not hesitate to have her care for our pup again!

Amber takes the best care of my pup! She’s friendly, reliable, and super thoughtful. Couldn’t ask for a better sitter - she is also a wonderful house guest when she is on overnight duty!

Safety, trust & environment

I happily offer visits and overnights in your pet’s home. I also provide daycare and boarding to dogs at my friend’s Oak Park house, which he’s been doing for years. I have two cats at my apartment in Oak Park, so I don’t typically take others’ pets there.

Information Amber R. would like to know about your pet

I treat pet care like social work. I’ll take as much background as you have. ;) I’m especially curious about your pet’s experiences with strangers and other animals, and if they have any triggers, allergies, or sensitivities. I’ll always err on the side of caution with your pet(s) and appreciate anything you can tell me to facilitate a better experience for them.

A typical day

I am happy to meet your animal wherever they’re at on their journey. If they’re a youngster with lots of energy, I can provide training walks, play time, and socialization. If they’re a sweet senior who needs a little extra care, I can offer slow strolls, cuddles, and gentle massages. For the big babies, I’ll even take them on a run in my roller blades. I creatively meet the needs, goals, and personality of each pet to ensure they have the best time!

My schedule is flexible, and I offer many services. I can provide regular walks or home visits to pets in the Oak Park area any day of the week. I’m also available for grooming and overnights in River Forest, Forest Park, and the surrounding areas. My friend and I offer in-home, small group daycare and boarding for dogs 7 days a week at his house in Oak Park. I can accommodate most requests, just ask. 😉 This is my main gig, and I’m committed to it.
