Home at all times--big fenced yard

Pet care experience

Hi there, I'm Wilson! I'm a fulltime dog parent and part-time web developer.I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 13 years old. I actually rescued my dog Coco, a Pitbull/Terrier mix, after she followed me home while I was out running one day. She loves the company of other dogs and it will be great to have your pup as a guest in our home! Before Coco, I had large and small dogs and I also volunteer at animal shelters whenever I get a chance -- I hate to see animals end up there, so being able to help them get adopted brings me a lot of joy. I live with my girlfriend in Humboldt Park near Logan Square. I work from home, which means that not only do I get to spend a lot of time caring for Coco, but I can also dedicate a lot of my time to caring for your pup. We have a large fenced yard, so we can spend plenty of time playing out there or we can head over to the park for a nice long walk! I also love going hiking -- the wilderness brings out an adventurous side of me and it’s great having a canine companion by my side. If we’re not hanging out in the yard or going for one of our walks, Coco loves playing hide and seek and your pup is welcome to join in or we can play their favorite game out in the yard. I’m happy to keep clients up to date on their dog’s stay with photos of how their pup is doing. I’m also available to answer any questions you may have while you’re away.

We've used Wilson twice and each time our dog Watson's stay was so great! The second time Watson remembered the house and got excited when he saw it. I really missed him but was sent photos and videos which were really nice to see. His dog is the sweetest most energetic girl which is great! Will definitely book with Wilson again.

Wilson is a caring individual who treats his dogs like family and will do the same for yours. Wilson is a highly motivated and I cannot recommend him enough! He is organized, dedicated, and amazing at keeping the dogs in good health and good spirits.

Wilson is a great dog sitter and loves to spoil his furry companions with treats and walks. He's taken good care of my dog Bella and has previous experience with senior dogs. I definitely recommend Wilson if you're looking for someone to play, cuddle and spoil your dog with love.

Information Wilson A. would like to know about your pet

Since I’ve had a lot of different dogs and have become acquainted with a variety of breeds through my volunteer work, I know that each dog has its own unique personality so it’s great for me to know about your dog’s habits, likes/dislikes, their exercise routine, what their favorite games are and anything else that will help me give them the best possible care.

A typical day

I work from home so I’m able to dedicate a large share of my time to your pup. We have a large fenced yard and Coco and I play out there at least every couple of hours. We also take three walks a day, so in addition to playtime at home you can also be assured your dog will get plenty of opportunity to stretch their legs! We live near Humboldt Park, which is a great place for us to take a walk. I also like spending time playing hide and seek with Coco, and I’m happy to play your pup’s favorite game as well.
