Highlights
Pet care experience
Pet Sitting with a Personal Touch
I'm passionate about keeping tails wagging and whiskers twitching! I believe in positive reinforcement because every pet deserves patience and encouragement. After spending two years with a well respected Chicago pet care company, I've had the joy of caring for all kinds of dogs and cats, from energetic puppies to senior sweethearts, anxious rescues to cats with attitude. I'm also trained in canine CPR for added peace of mind. You can count on me to be reliable, punctual, and to treat your furry family members like my own.

Bethany also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I enjoy getting to know each pet's needs and preferences and tailoring them accordingly. Not every pet is social and affectionate so it's important to recognize.
Ratings and reviews
I’m so lucky I found Bethany as soon as I moved to the city. I was nervous leaving my anxious chihuahua for the first time in a new house and she did great with her! She was also very understanding and patient with me for the state of the house - given we just moved and have a couple house projects in motion. She also left the house spotless. I look forward to having Bethany again as a regular sitter for my high maintenance senior dog!
Bethany is an incredible animal whisperer! From the moment we met, she connected instantly with our animals. During her 8-day stay she was communicative and sent daily photos and updates. We were truly appreciative and it made us feel at ease knowing she was there to care for our pets. If you are looking for a responsible pet sitter with great calming energy, look no further.
Bethany was both a fantastic animal caregiver and house guest, making sure our dog and cat were well cared for. Our house was spotless upon returning home. Bethany also went above and beyond when our flight home was delayed, staying “on call” until she knew we would make it back to our animals in time. Can’t recommend Bethany highly enough and hope to have her stay with our animals again in the future.

Schedule
I work full time Monday through Friday, so I'm primarily available for weekend and overnight stays. For weekday drop-ins or sits, I'll need advance notice to arrange time away from work. These work best for independent pets who are comfortable being alone for 8-10 hours during the day. But if you have specific dates in mind, please don't hesitate to inquire, as my primary employer is quite flexible.
