I've recently moved to Chicago and am employed part-time, and have plenty of time outside of work to care for pets! I love taking dogs out on adventures, long walks, or just playing with them in the backyard.

Safety, trust & environment
The service I provide is pet care at clients home. Having grown up with many pets, I am able to provide excellent care, play, and comfort to many species of pets.
Information Mer T. would like to know about your pet
I am open to caring for all breeds and sizes! I am curious to know your dogs energy levels so I can account for how much outside /play time they need.
A typical day
I love to go on walks and runs and will take your dog with me! I typically go on a 1-1.5 hour walk each day and if your dog is up for it I will take them along with me! I will also play with your dog and spend time just hanging out with them.

Animal lover
Pet care experience
I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. My first dog, a German Shepherd–Chow Chow mix, was my constant companion until I was 10. Not long after, another dog joined the family, and when I left for college, he came with me, where I cared for him through those years. Along the way, I also raised seven pet chickens and two pet rats. By the time I was 12, my neighbors had started hiring me to care for their chickens and three cats while they were away, giving me even more hands-on experience with a variety of animals.
Cat care experience
Mer also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Reviews
Holly seemed happy. Mer was responsive to any inquiries I had while away. I would recommend her.
Mer did a great job taking care of our dog. She handled our pet’s individual needs well!
I couldn’t have asked for a better pet and house sitter. When I first met Mer, she was clearly experienced and comfortable with Walter (he can come on a little strong since he loves visitors) but she wasn’t intimidated at all. Mer took the time to understand Walters routines and quirks (he has many) which immediately made me feel comfortable about trusting her with my big 90 pound baby. While I was away, we kept in touch so I knew Walter was well cared for. The photos looked like they were having a great time! Mer treated my home and my dog with kindness and respect, as if they were her own. I would definitely recommend Mer and will be booking her again next trip.
Mer is a truly responsible and loving pet caregiver. She treats every animal with genuine care, patience, and attention, making pets feel safe, happy, and at home. Whether it's going for walks, following routines, or giving plenty of affection, Mer goes above and beyond. She's my dog’s favorite sitter, and I wouldn’t trust anyone else more to look after her.
