Wicker Park Dog Lover!

Pet care experience

Hi there! Thanks for taking the time to read this. My name is Lynette. I live in Wicker Park and am so sad that my apartment is not dog friendly because dogs are truly the greatest companions. In addition to having two pups of my own (at my parent's place in the suburbs- they do not live with me) I spent most of my high school years dog walking and sitting. Since moving to Chicago for college, there has been an empty spot in my heart knowing that I can't see a dog everyday! So I figured I would offer pet-sitting services to not only help you out, but also to make me happy knowing that I'll be able to hang out with a precious pup. I have experience with puppy training pads, dogs with diabetes, and dogs with eyedrops. I live in a very residential area with plenty of other pet owners and parks nearby. Wiggly Field is just up the street!

Amazing. It's the second time Lynette has stayed with our pup and she always sends great pictures and updates. I would definitely recommend her to anyone in Chicago!

Lynette did a wonderful job taking care of our older dog, Riley. She walked her a few times a day which was a huge help. We will definitely hire her again!

If you are a person who has doubts about our country's future based on our young people, Lynette will give you hope for the future. She is mature, reliable, thoughtful, kind, dynamic, flexible, honest, and really loves the critters. Right before vacation, our old dog started throwing up and having diarrhea, which he only had once in his life, so we seriously considered calling off our trip. We spoke to Lynette about the situation and she inspired such confidence and willingness to take Bear Paw to the vet if need be and also said that administering the 5 meds he was on would be no problem. So we decided if he was symptom free for the 24 hours before we were to leave, we would go and that we would come back early if necessary. Thanks to Lynette, everything worked out, Bear Paw thrived, and she even created an innovative way to give him some medicine, because she said he was afraid of the syringe, which sprayed liquid meds into his moth. Given the circumstances, we wanted to keep in close touch and she texted us at all the times we would have wanted (but not too often). It was clear Bear had a great time and Lynette bonded with him. We highly recommend Lynette.

Another great stay with Lynnette... Says Guinness and Stella! Our pups were so well taken care of, that even our front desk team mentioned how happy they were with Lynnette. She even carried Stella down the stairs (19 floors) when the elevators went out, but stayed in good spirits. This is her second stay, and we will definitely book her again in a couple of weeks. We are so pleased that we have found someone we are comfortable with in a new city. Thanks Lynnette, we appreciate your caring attention to our babies.
