Who let the dogs out? (on walks!)🐶

Pet care experience

Hi! We’re Paola and Franny. 3 REASONS TO HIRE US: 🐶 EXCLUSIVITY: Unlike other sitters, we don’t have another dog living in our home, so we don’t play favorites! Your pup will get an abundance of attention from us and we only board 1 dog at a time. 🐾 EXERCISE: Depending on the energy level of the dog, some will require more exercise than just walking. Paola loves to go out for runs! She ran her first marathon last year and hasn’t been able to stop thinking about the next one. Of course, if she can’t keep up, we can stick to fetch or frisbee... Franny’s goal of walking to and trying every coffee shop in the neighborhood would be more fun with a dog! 📸 EVERYDAY PHOTOS: Who doesn’t miss their furry friend while they’re away? We are so attached to our childhood dogs, we’ll even ask our moms to put them on the phone over FaceTime. We can guarantee photos/videos of your furry friend everyday to keep you up-to-date on the latest and greatest. ABOUT US We are young professionals currently living in the Lincoln Park area. Franny works remote full-time and Paola typically works in the Loop but due to the pandemic, they are both now home full-time. We are huge animal lovers! Franny was surrounded by big dogs her whole life, and Paola’s best friend is her 15-year old bichon frise which now lives at her mom’s (so she has experience with dogs of all ages!) We joined Rover because while we can’t commit to getting our own dog right now, we love having them around. Now that we’ve survived another brutal Chicago winter, we’ve really enjoy walking around and exploring the neighborhood we recently moved to— As much as we like each other, we are finding this is much more exciting with a canine companion! In our free time we enjoy puzzles, netflix-binging, and trying out new baking recipes.

Granny and Paola were amazing! They sent a ton of photos and kept me updated during my pet’s entire stay. I would highly recommend them!

Twyla (French bulldog puppy) loves spending the day with Paola and Franny! She gets excited when I pull up and runs inside! Paola and Franny send sweet updates with pictures and it’s clear Twyla thinks she’s right at home. I’m so grateful to have found such great caretakers for my baby girl when I’m at work.

Paola and Franny were such great sitters for our dog Reggie! They made pick up and drop off a breeze, kept us constantly updated with tons of pictures and feedback, and even gave some extra love and care to Reggie when he was having some tummy troubles from the stress of being away. When we picked up Reggie, he barely wanted to leave - a sure sign that he enjoyed his stay! We would love to use Paola and Franny's services again soon!

Another great stay with Paola & Franny for Leo Fender the Dog! I just love these ladies and my little guy, Leo, seems to feel the same as evidenced by the wagging tail when they greeted him! Paola and Franny are really terrific. The regular updates throughout Leo's stay give me so much peace of mind. And I really appreciate how they ask about any special instructions and/or things to watch for - especially because my little guy battles tummy distress when he is separated from me. Paola and Franny work with him to try and keep his tummy more settled with smaller, more frequent meals and lots and lots of TLC!

A typical day

Located a few blocks from Oz Park your furry friend will definitely get some long walks and exercise in if they enjoy that. On the flip side, for a more laidback experience, your pet will enjoy plenty of plush pillows & blankets, a cozy atmosphere, and lots of belly rubs at our apartment. We are only 2 roommates in a 3 bedroom/2 bath apartment so we do have some extra space for those bigger dogs and indoor playtime. We also have cars in case we need to get somewhere that is not in walking distance.
