Pet care experience
I recently moved to Chicago and have been really missing my family's dog Nintendo. I have space, enthusiasm, and lots of time to take good care of your pet in the heart of Chicago. Since the pandemic, I learned how to adjust to care for my lil guy Nintendo when he got suddenly anxious and reactive. I understand and can help reduce this anxiety with treats, attention, and walks to less populated areas. I love the dog park but thats not a spot for every dog. Let's meet and see what's best for your dog! Since moving to Chicago, I've been considering fostering my own dog and would love to spoil your dog as I do grad school work as an art therapist at the School of the Art Institute as I decide whether that's my next move. I'm a grad student at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago in the Art Therapy and Counseling program. My classes do not take all day and with class right around the corner and lots of online work, I have plenty of time to share with your precious dog. I live in a spacious apartment with lots of room for a small/medium dog to run and play! While I live in an area by the train that's a little loud, within ten walking minutes is a quieter place with grass to walk dogs who like a longer stroll. Let's figure out what is best for your dog.
Reviews
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again - Amy is the BEST! I cannot recommend her highly enough, she is keenly attuned to my pup’s needs, very responsive (plus, I LOVE all the photo updates!), and above all that she’s just a genuinely kindhearted soul. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ would recommend to family/friends!
Great as always!
Amazing! Thanks for being so communicative and supportive!
Amy took care of my beagle (Skecher) for about a day a couple of weeks ago. When she came down to pick him up from our car, she came prepared with treats - and that's enough to tell you that she knows and loves dogs! She sent us LOTS of pictures and videos throughout the day, and it seems like Skecher had a great time with her. All in all, I would highly recommend asking Amy to look after your fur baby!

I had this apartment dog-proofed and tested by my own little guy when he came to visit me from Miami. It's actually pretty spacious in here and there's plenty of room to play with toys. I'm comfortable giving dogs sneaky medications and will pay lots of attention to your dog. I live on the 13th floor but no windows will open while your dog is here!

Information Amy B. would like to know about your pet
I would love to know about a history of biting or if they're reactive. Not an immediate no! But let's make sure everything will work well for you and me.
A typical day
I'm typically a homebody so if we aren't walking or visiting the dog park, your dog will get playtime, snuggles if they like that, and some space to themselves during their time with me. Let me know what kind of attention your dog likes.
