Pet care experience

I dedicate a lot of my time to caring for dogs who need extra love! I am a dog mom to a 13 year old bichon poodle, I am a foster mom with many organizations, I am the go-to pet sitter for friends and family. I also grew up having at least 2 dogs and 2 cats in the house at a time. Never in my childhood did I not have a pet of my own to love! I enjoy exploring Chicago and to do that with a furry companion is such a gift. Watching doggos get excited for walks and play time brings me so much joy! No matter the animal, I am here to give it love! I can’t wait to meet your pets :-)

Gwen is the perfect person to watch your dog! She is patient and truly cares about animals. She ensures that every animal she watches is given love, long walks and lots of playtime.

Gwen is without a doubt a reliable, trustworthy woman. Gwen has been taking care of animals since she was young. She helped raise and care for her family’s animals to nurturing and raising her own baby Kazi (a Bichon poodle). Gwen has also taken the responsibility of dog sitting for my own maltipoo, and he has shown great fondness for her. In addition to caring for her own dog, Gwen has become a foster mom through The Anti-Cruelty Society. She has recently helped care for three puppies and a kitten until the animals were old enough to go back to the shelter to hopefully be adopted. I would recommend her services to anyone who needs them!

Gwen goes above and beyond for any pet she meets. Whether that be her own dog or just a random dog that she walks by. Her animals are by far the most important to her and she just wants to make the pets as happy as they can be.
