Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of my dog growing up, and have dog sat for many friends recently. Since being in Chicago, my partner and I have also fostered a dog (Great Pyrenees!) to health. My partner also has extensive experience caring for and training dogs; she’s happy to help as well!

Grace was great! She went above and beyond with my dogs temporary medial issue, and also reassured me daily with updates and photos. Saint came home happy & healthy after a long stay, which is all I can ask for. I’d highly recommend her to friends & family.

Looked like Duke had a great time! I didn’t feel worried at all during our week long stay. Grace was very responsive and understanding so we really appreciated her help!
