*I am located in Chicago again, with a new additions to our family. We now have toddler & 2 kittens.* I love spending time with animals! While living in Jersey City for two years, I co-owned Canine Trekker LLC, a dog walking business. This experience taught me that I do not want to provide pet care full-time. I try really hard to keep my calendar up-to-date. If it says I'm unavailable, I am really unavailable. I have been a dog owner my whole life. I currently own cats, German shepherd, and a large shepherd mix. My boys are neutered and play well with most dogs. They are cat friendly! My pets are an important part of my family and I understand that your pets are an important part of yours. My goal is to provide the same care and attention to your pet that I do my own. I am comfortable with all sizes of dogs and age ranges. All breeds are okay too! I am also comfortable with cleaning ears, trimming nails, and administering medications. Ivan has allergies and other related skin issues. I regularly give him oral and topical medications. I also clean his ears and brush his teeth. Please contact me to find out if we are the right fit for each other. I do require a meet and greet. Bookings are contingent upon a successful meeting with my dogs (excludes cats and small pets).
