I have a way with difficult dogs

Pet care experience

Hey there! My name is Avery and I'm a college graduate in Lincoln Square, Chicago. I am very caring and love to cuddle with pups. I'm also a runner, so I'm ready to take on energetic dogs that want to sprint! If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. I can't wait to meet your fuzzy ball of joy! :) Dog owner for 15 years Experience administering medicine (pills and ear drops), and I am not afraid to inject medicine if needed. Dog walker/volunteer for the Chicago Canine Rescue Why I love dog sitting I've always loved animals. Growing up my family always had cats, but it wasn't until I was nine years old that we got a dog. Kobe was a Boston Terrier who inexplicably grew to be three times as tall and wide as a normal Boston. Regardless of his size, I loved that dog. Whenever I leave my family's home to go to Chicago he was the one I missed the most, and when I was home I spent much of my time laying next to him in front of the fireplace. In the summer I take him for a walk every day. When I'm in Chicago and feeling dog sick I head over to the Chicago Canine Rescue and walk the pups there. My parents recently got a new Boston Terrier puppy named Kylo Ren, he's the one in most of my pictures. He's very energetic and bitey but I love him so much! I'm the only one he listens to sometimes :) Kylo’s brother Lenny is a chihuahua/daschund mix and is super fun too<3 My experience administering medication My dog had reoccurring ear infections, so I have experience administering ear drops as well as giving him pills. I am studying medicine in school as well, so I am comfortable learning and administering medicine in other ways.

Avery is incredible!!!! We love working with her - in fact, went from hiring her ad hoc to weekly. She is communicative, attentive, timely, flexible, trustworthy, and kind - truly everything you want in a dog sitter. Most importantly, she makes our dog feel so loved and cared for (and he can be a handful! Very strong Great Pyrenees energy). 10/10 Avery is awesome!!!

Avery watched our guy for two whole weeks while we were out of town and she took amazing care of him! He got tons of time outside and made a lot of new dog friends. She is the best!

Information Avery A. would like to know about your pet

I really don't have any particular preferences. As long as the dog is potty trained I think I can handle anything.

A typical day

Time I'll spend with your dog We can base that off of your dog's needs. If he/she requires constant companionship I will work my schedule to make sure he/she is never left alone. If you just need someone to check in I can do that too. Extra house-sitting services Of course! I have a garden in my windowsill, so I know how to care for plants. Mail is not a problem. If you have other pets I'd be more than happy to care for them as well.
