Trustworthy Pet-Sitter

Pet care experience

Hello! Im looking for a pet-sitting gig in Chicago. I have a full time job in Streeterville but I have the freedom to work from home as needed. Im happy to drop in and feed/help with potty breaks as needed or stay at your home with your pup or kitty overnight. I worked at a doggy daycare for 2 years when i was in high school, and I have watched several of my friends' pets both at my house and at their houses. I have experience with administering medication and caring for special needs animals. I currently live in a spacious duplex with two roommates who are also home most of the time. Please let me know what you need and Im happy to help. Thank you!

Emily has been our cat sitter for about a year and I couldn't recommend a better animal care taker. Our cat has severe trust issues and can be a real pain to take care of but Emily does this flawlessly. Our cat also has feline leukemia so she needs prescription cat food and can sometimes get sick, something Emily has never complained about. Our cat is very similar to a dog in that she has a lot of energy that needs to be taken care of with play time. Her tremendous experience with pets (both cats and dogs) makes her the best care taker because she knows how they can be and pays close attention to detail. Our cat adores Emily which is very rare for our cat to be like without us there, she constantly sends updates and pictures every time she watches her. I highly recommend Emily to watch your fury creatures so that you can feel peace knowing they're taken care of, I fully trust our furbaby in her hands. She is an animal lover and person and we are so lucky to have her as our go to animal caretaker. We are planning on getting a dog soon and Emily will be our go-to!

Every time I need a petsitter, I ask Emily. Emily and my cat, Stella get along great. Stella was adopted from a shelter and lives with feline leukemia. Stella is very untrusting towards people she doesn't know, but with Emily she feels comfortable. She is always kind and caring with animals, as well as very attentive. Emily also had a very special bond with her dog. She loves every pet she meets and always takes interest in them. She welcomes any furry friends and always has a great attitude when caring for them.

Emily has taken care of both of my pets (dog and cat) for many years and she has done nothing but an amazing job! I have a pretty high-energy, 100 lb lab and she has always been successful in caring for and walking him. Both my pets get so excited to see her!
