To say I love dogs is an understatement! I have grown up with dogs my entire life and have experience pet sitting dogs as small as a lazy Chihuahua up to an energetic Great Dane. I have been providing pet services for others for over 10 years and have had the opportunity to dog sit in my home base of Chicago as well as Brooklyn, Anguilla, Denver, Puerto Rico and the Hamptons. In Chicago, I provide services in my own home as well as in your home. When providing services in your home, I am happy to help take care of the home while you are away - watering plants, gathering mail, etc. My schedule and remote work allows me to provide companionship to your pup for the majority of the day. Of course, I do leave the house but you can expect me to be with your pup at least 18 hours of the day. (And never left alone longer than they are used to without a potty break!) I strive to make your pup's vacation as comfortable as possible for them (and you!). Typically, I will walk a dog three times a day for a total of one hour per day. (If your dog requires more than an hour of walks per day, please let me know as rates may change.) I hope to have the opportunity to make your pup at home while you are away! Please reach out with any questions. PS. You will see there is a cancellation note on my profile. Unfortunately, this cancellation had to happen because the pup needed constant care and I had to leave the house for three hours on that day. I take my bookings very seriously and this was only cancelled due to the need for constant care.
