Information Cara B. would like to know about your pet

Is your dog potty trained and do they sleep through the night? What's their favorite toy to play with? Do they have any bad habits I should be aware of?

I live in Bucktown and love to walk around the neighborhood. If allowed, would love to take your pup to dog friendly spots around town.

Never met a dog I didn't love

Pet care experience

You can expect your pup to be treated with the utmost love and affection since I don’t have a dog of my own. I welcome any furry friends in my house and my heart. ****ATTENTION: On April 1, 2026 I moved from my Bucktown apt to Ukrainian Village. For anyone who has booked me in the past; I wanted to note!

Cara was great with my dogs. She sent lots of pictures and kept me updated throughout the day. Would happily book with her again.

Cara was great! She sent multiple updates with pictures throughout the day that put my mind at ease. She followed our instructions to the T with our reactive dog as well. Would book again!

Cara took great care of our young dog! He is nervous around new people and can be reactive, but he took to her instantly. She knew just how to give him space and within minutes he was trying to lick her face. I’ve never seen him so comfortable with someone other than us. She let him snuggle with her while she worked and was more than happy to take on him and all his quirks. I’m so grateful to be able to leave him and know he’s safe and comfortable.
