WFH 🏠 couple between 2 dog parks!
Pet care experience
My current job allows me to work from home, along with my boyfriend. We enjoy taking long walks in the mornings/evenings and thought it would be better with a dog.John and I both grew up around dogs; Golden retriever, yellow lab, black lab and Siberian husky. Ever since moving to the city I have dog sat for all my friends ranging from 1 week to 3 weeks. Sitting different breeds and personalities. We love filling our apartment with a dog or Cat and enjoy the time we do get to spend with them. We will care for your pet as it is one of our own. Looking forward to meeting you and your fur baby. Please feel free to reach out with any other questions.
Reviews
My Golden Cooper had a great stay with John and Clara. They made it super easy for drop off and pick up and sent to many great updates and pictures while I was away. I would definitely love to have Cooper stay with them again when I have another trip come up.
This was Apollo’s second time with Clara and John. They provided great photo updates daily while we were away and were so accommodating to not only us, but the requests we had for Apollo. Happy to know Apollo has a second home while we travel!
Clara and John watch my pup all the time and were super helpful when I needed a sitter last minute for a long holiday weekend. I always know my pup is in good hands with them!!
Great sitters!

Safety, trust & environment
We care for your pet on your guidelines. We will uphold the same standards that you put forth in your home. If you allow them on the couch/bed, we are more than happy to do that (our pets we grew up with were always allowed on couches/beds)! If you don’t want them to eat human food or allow them on furniture, we will uphold that rule in our home. We want our place to be an extension of your home, while you’re away!
Home
Information Clara & John H. would like to know about your pet
-Food aggression? -What is your routine with them? -Is your pet potty trained? -Anxiety or aggression issues & triggers -Do you allow them on furniture? -If we have plans, how long is it ok to crate them?
A typical day
There are plenty of things to do in the South Loop, but our favorite thing to do is go to Dog Parks. If your pet is ok with being in dog parks, we will take them to play fetch or just hang out with other dogs. We like getting them out of apartment/condo life as much as possible in the city. We live steps between not 1, but 2, dog parks (Coliseum Park and Fred Anderson Dog Park). Love to go on long walks around the city, especially to Grant Park and along the Lake Front as well.

Availability
Our WFH schedule allows us to fully accommodate your pet to ensure they are getting the attention they require and deserve! We view walks as a chance for us to get out of our “office” to decompress/stretch our legs. If there ever is a situation where we have plans during a time you’ve requested, we will ask if it’s ok to crate them for a specific amount of time before we accept any requests. Your pet comes first for us as we treat them as our own “fur baby” while you’re away, so we try to spoil them as much as we can!
