Loving care of pets and homes

Pet care experience

My dog had epilepsy, loved her home, and feared kennels. I started taking in pets for friends when they were away, then acquaintances. People with cats, fish, a lizard, and plants and gardens requested home stays. I have developed lasting relationships with the pets and their people thanks to my dependable, loving care of their pets and places called home. Long walks and quiet talks and much love for animals is what I consistently provide. I currently reside in Evanston, IL, and am willing and able to travel and sit for pets. I cared for a dog, cat, bird and took care of the house and garden for clients in Santa Monica, CA. I have also had extended stays in Chicago, IL, New Orleans, LA, and Brooklyn, NY. I have experience administering medicine in pill and liquid form to animals, especially elderly dogs.

Claudia is Wonderful!!! In all honesty I didn't want to write this review as I'm worried she's gonna be booked up every time I may need her, I wanted to keep her all to myself :) But that just wouldn't be fair. Claudia is everything you could hope for in a pet sitter. She is warm, very easy to communicate with, exceptionally responsible, and obviously someone who loves animals. Our pup Calvin seemed to like her immediately and was at ease with her. I received multiple updates daily along with beautiful pics of what Calvin was up to. She was always responsive by phone or text and accommodated all our needs and requests. She went above and beyond to make sure our home was neat and tidy when she left and was thoughtful enough to have welcomed us home with some lovely flowers. Ultimately the most important thing though is that she took impeccable care of our furry family member. I hope to have Claudia stay with Calvin every time we need to leave him at home.

Claudia's fantastic! She stayed at our house with our dog for 2+ weeks during a major snowstorm. She quickly bonded with our 2-year-old terrier rescue, was highly communicative - proactively sending regular photos and updates, and took great care of our home and belongings. I would highly recommend her & expect to book her again soon.

Claudia loves animals. She's been a guest at my house and each time took it upon herself to walk my two dogs daily before I woke up. She has also stayed at our house to watch our dogs when we were out of town. She is a wonderful house watcher, and I guarantee you will not find another more thoughtful and dedicated dog lover and caretaker! She's a gem.
