Pet care experience

Dog mom and animal lover

Hi! I recently moved from philly to chicago and would love the opportunity to take care of your pet. Growing up I had two cats and currently have a dog who is 5yrs old. I have spent a lot of time taking care of my neighbors pets, including dog walking and kitty care. I got my own dog when she was a puppy so I am happy to help with training if needed!

Dulce was great! She sent me tons of photos and kept me updated on how my Honey was doing while I was away.

Schedule

I am currently home during the day so I have plenty of time to play with your pups or cats! I always like to have lots of cuddle time and then a good walk with my dog in the morning before breakfast. Around noon I take my pup out for her potty break or a walk. We go out for potty breaks around 5pm and again before bed. I would love to have more company on our walks and/or have the opportunity to take care of your fur baby while your away!

Safety, trust & environment

I live in an apartment building that unfortunately doesn’t have a yard, but The building does have two dog runs. I also am a few block away from Grant Park and have easy access to other green space and the lake trails! I have a very friendly pup who can keep your fur baby company! She understands when other animals need their space but also loves to play if given the go ahead by the other pup! She is very good with both cats and dogs!

Pets

A typical day

Mental and physical exercise is very important, so I like to incorporate training and other forms of mental stimulations into the day. In terms of physical exercise I have lots of parks around me and easy access to the lake front trail.
