Highlights
Pet care experience
Pet Whisperer
Hello i’m Lina! I am a graphic designer who works mostly at home. I’m currently getting my degree from the school of the art institute of Chicago. I’ve been taking care of animals for over a decades and worked with a mixture of breeds. I took care of my chow for 10 years. She sadly passed away from cancer earlier this year. I also have taken care of people’s cats long term. I’m also a freelance photographer so you’ll get lots of pictures and videos. I treat pets like they’re my own.
Cat care experience
Lina also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
Every person takes care of their pets differently and has different standards so I request to get very detailed instructions that I will follow completely. I also am one of those people that isn't afraid to ask questions, so if a concern or question arises I will instantly check with you how you would like for me to respond. If you aren't reachable then I would handle the situation with the upmost care.
Ratings and reviews
Lina is the best! We have rebooked her several times to watch our dog, Jackie. She sends constant updates, tons of pictures, and I always know Jackie is in good hands when we’re away. I can’t recommend Lina enough!🫶🏼
Lina was patient with my nervous senior Chi, and took her time to bribe him with treats and coax him out for a potty break.
Lina was so good to our dogs while we were away and she was very communicative. We wouldn’t hesitate to have her dog sit again!
Lina was an absolute lifesaver! She was able to squeeze in our dog for a last-minute week of walks! The day before our dog had an unexpected procedure done and required a little more TLC than she usually does, and Lina was just the person for it! She kept me up to date on how our dog was doing and gave her extra love! We will be using Lina again and I highly recommend her!
Lina took great care of my cat while I was away. She is very friendly and easy to communicate with. I would definitely book with her again.
Lina was great! My doggo loved her immediately and was asking for belly rubs within the first few minutes of meeting her. Lina was super responsive and sent lots of photos/ videos/ updates of them hanging out together, which made enjoying my trip so much easier. I would definitely recommend her and will be rebooking in the future!

Schedule
At the moment I work from home. A few times a week I have class to attend in the loop, but i have long lunch breaks where Im able to check in on pets. I sadly cannot stay with pets 24/7. I may be gone between 4-8 hours for my classes.
