Pet care experience

Compassionate Care for Your Pets

Hi! I’m a lifelong pet owner and enthusiast who recently made the move from NYC to Chicago's Andersonville. Since my new building doesn’t allow me to have my own pets right now, I’m hoping to pour all that love into caring for yours. Whether it’s a game of fetch or a cozy couch nap, I’m here to make sure your pet feels happy and safe while you’re gone.

Devon was great! Our cats were well taken care of, and it gave us great peace of mind while we were out of town. Communication was excellent as well. We would use Devon again!

I had a WONDERFUL experience having Deon watch my dog while I was away on vacation. She kept me updated with pictures which gave me so much peace of mind and she was great about reaching out right away if there were any questions or concerns. You can truly tell how much she loves animals and how safe they feel around her. It made it easier for me being away from my dog knowing that he was in such kind and capable hands. I would absolutely trust her again with my dog again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable and loving to care for their pets.

Devon is so in incredible with my 3 year old cavapoo, Blue. She goes above an beyond to ensure his needs are met but that he’s mentally stimulated throughout the day. Would recommend her to anyone!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An Absolutely Outstanding Sitter! I can’t say enough wonderful things about Devon. My tiny shihtzu/yorkie sometimes struggles with separation anxiety but she is always so excited when we arrive to Devon and even sad to leave. From day one, Devon showed an incredible mix of confidence, patience, and kindness that immediately put both me and my dog at ease. What truly impressed me was how attentive Devon was, not just to keeping my dog safe and well, exercised, but also to understanding her specific triggers and needs. She handled situations calmly, with complete control, and I could tell my dog respected and trusted her very quickly. Each walk has been consistent, reliable, and full of care. I love the updates I receive after every outing. It’s clear how much Devon genuinely cares about my dog’s wellbeing. Not only has my pup come home happier and calmer, but I’ve also noticed improvements in her overall behavior thanks to the structured walks and the positive reinforcement techniques she uses. If you’re looking for someone who isn’t just a dog walker but a true professional who understands dogs, look no further. Devon has been a lifesaver for me, and I recommend her without hesitation.

Schedule

Because I work from home, I have the flexibility to fit into your pet's routine, not the other way around. I can pop by during the week for walks and cuddles, and I’m also available for overnight housesitting on weekdays (given enough notice) and weekends—so your pet gets constant companionship.
