Pet care experience
Treating Your Pets Like Family🐾🩷
What sets me apart is my lifelong experience caring for animals and my genuine passion for their well-being. Since I was 5 years old, I've cared for dogs, cats, rabbits, turtles, fish, and more, giving me a strong understanding of different pets' needs and personalities. In the past 2 years I have been working at a dog wellness/ grooming center, where I've cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, energy levels, and temperaments. I also previously volunteered with the Elmwood Park Zoo as well as a local cat shelter which helped deepen my knowledge of animal care and behavior. I'm comfortable caring for puppies & kittens , adult dogs & cats , and senior pets, and I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and following each pet's unique routine. Above all, I treat every pet as if they were my own, providing plenty of attention, playtime, affection, and care while their owners are away.

Ratings and reviews
Lana was amazing and attentive and took great care of our beloved kitty! She was always timely (important because he is food obsessed and will certainly perish if not fed on time!!!). She provided excellent communication and lots of feedback through pictures and texts. It is incredibly difficult for me to be away from my kitty and she truly provided me the peace and happiness that I needed to be able to enjoy my vacation. She listened to what was important to me to take the best care of my baby during the meet and greet and followed up on everything that I asked. I highly recommend Lana.

Lana did an amazing job with my boys. Very caring and attentive. She followed all instructions and I was at ease. Many photos were sent and I was informed of their daily activities.


Best person I've ever worked with on Rover. Lana is dependable, honest, and Bear's new best friend for life. Her knowledge has helped me a great deal, I adopted Bear two months ago and together we're seeing his personality pop. Bear's love for Lana is undeniable. I wish I found you months ago Lana! Thank you 😊

Lana took excellent care of our dogs and I woukd definitely recommend her.



Lana is amazing and it gave us such great comfort knowing she was taking care of our dog, Rocky, while being out of town! Awesome updates on what was going on and how Rocky was doing. Great communication and photos shared. Will absolutely book Lana again!

I was so happy Lana was able to honor my request on such short notice. Her attention to detail and communication was amazing. Thank you Lana!

Schedule
I now work remotely, so I am super flexible with my hours , I’m pretty much available anytime. (with notice if it’s going to be late )
- Cats0 to 15 lbs16 to 40 lbs41 to 100 lbsover 101 lbsLana can host up to 4 drop-ins per day
- I love to learn as much as possible about your pup before hand so I can be extra prepared . I'd love to know their routine, personality, favorite activities, feeding schedule, and anything that helps them feel comfortable and happy 🐶🐱. I also appreciate knowing about any medical needs, medications, fears, anxieties, or behaviors I should be aware of. The more I know ahead of time, the better I can provide a safe, stress-free experience and make sure your pet receives the same love, attention, and care they're used to at home.🩷
