Pet care experience
I have experience walking and caring for large and small breeds, from Mastiff’s to Yorkie’s. I am a teacher so I'm available weekdays in the evenings and on weekends for housesitting. My summer hours include mornings, afternoons and evenings. I have a dog myself, but have joint custody of him, so my boarding hours are dependent on his schedule. I will not board another dog while mine is home or take on house sitting other than drop-ins when he is home. But I can be flexible about which days I board when he is not here depending on your dog's needs, since I work from 8-3:30 each day. I believe it’s crucial to support dog’s physical and mental health through stimulating walks and play. I am good at walking dogs who are antisocial. I had my own dog who was diabetic and I am able to give insulin shots and use a glucometer. I have lots of experience with administering various medications, consumable, topical and injections. I have some experience working with a licensed therapy dog and caring for a large scope of pets: dogs, cats, rats, turtles, birds, tarantulas, geckos, and fish. I would be willing to help with additional pets if needed. I love cats, but can only do drop-ins, no boarding at this time.
Reviews
Awesome. She watched my baby for NYE and they had a great time.
Raven is great! She has watched my cat a few times now I will definitely continue to book her. She is thoughtful, on time, and responsive. I always feel relief knowing she is taking care of my fur baby. Thank you, Raven!
Raven was great to work with! She sent adorable photos and followed instructions. Fozzie is looking forward to working with her again??thanks!!!
Raven was great! She gladly watched my dog Diesel last minute while I was out of town. She and her roommates are experienced caring for dogs so I knew he was in good hands!

Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced in yard and lie next to one of the biggest parks in the city, Humboldt Park! I have enough room if you want to crate your dog, I even have a very large crate here they are welcome to use if needed. I have one roommate who loves dogs, but doesn't do any of the labor for the animals I sit for, just extra love and attention!
Home
Information Raven D. would like to know about your pet
I love all breeds. I like to know as much as I can about your pet; typical energy level, reaction to other dogs and strangers, medications required and play preferences (dog park, long walk, catch, tracking, tug etc.)
A typical day
We will visit any near by parks or dog parks and play tug, catch, fetch and other stimulating games with toys. Please let me know if there are activities your dog loves; tracking, performing tricks, practicing commands etc.

I walk dogs and do drop-ins after work for those who need evening services. I do boarding and house sitting on weekends unless dogs are fine for 8 hours alone while I'm at work.
