Love animals and will treat yours like they are my own. I am new to the Chicago area, from Cincinnati, and have been pet sitting for neighbors since high school. Hoping to find a family or two here that I can work with to be your go to pet sitter, and give you that peace of mind while you are away. I have always had a dog and a cat, with ages ranging from pups to seniors. I know they are apart of the family and how hard it can be to leave them for even a day. I prefer to visit with one family at a time so I can give them my full attention, make sure they are comfortable and not overwhelmed. In middle school, high school and college I would watch neighbors pets, including staying at their home overnight. If your dog loves going to the p-a-r-k, I would be happy to make a drive to take them to their favorite place. I would be excited to give your pet love while you are away, whether its long walks, playing ball/tug-o-war, snuggles on the couch while watching a movie/reading a book with them, to jumping up on the bed for a good night sleep.
