Highlights
Pet care experience
Looking forward to a long walk!
I’ve had pets since I was 3 years old. It started with two beta fish, two tabby cats, and then two years later we added a chocolate lab to the mix. Taking care of them was like taking care of family, whether it be walking them, playing with them, or even scooping their poop. I didn't truly begin caring for other people's pets until eight years ago when I started to petsit my friend's geckos, guinea pigs, hamsters and hedgehog. I feel very lucky to have been able to take care of such a wide variety of animals. Unfortunately I cannot care for pets in my own home as I still live with my parents, but whatever safety measures you need followed for your pets in your own home I will absolutely adhere to. I can take care of cats, dogs, reptiles, and other small animals (guinea pigs, hamsters, rats, etc). I am also involved in taking care of non-pet animals. Two summers ago I worked in the ungulates department and the Brookfield Zoo servicing camels, gazelles, antelope and zebras. Last summer I worked at the Anderson Humane Wildlife Center helping care for injured or young native Illinois wildlife.
Cat care experience
Zoey also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I set up a meet and greet with the pet and their owner for every drop-in I book. I go over to their house to learn what my responsibilities are and take notes for each individual pet's needs.
Ratings and reviews
Zoe is a wonderful and took excellent care of my older, somewhat shy kitty Gracie. I recommend her and will use her again!
Zoey did a great job looking after our cat. Very communicative. Would recommend!
Zoey took great care of our cat over the Christmas holiday. She was so attentive and caring during each visit and provided a detailed summary of her time. We are so grateful for her flexibility over the holiday season. Highly recommend!
I found Zoey to be an honest, dependable and trustworthy person. She sent me pictures of my pet and updated me each day she came over. She alerted me to a concern she had. I highly recommend her and would definitely request her again.
Zoey is great. She immediately formed a great rapport with our dog and took great care of her while we were away. Each day we received detailed reports with pictures. Zoey was also very responsive to communications. We would definitely use Zoey again!
Great job Zoey!!! Everything went perfectly.

Schedule
I just graduated from college and am back in the area, available almost everyday to help look after your pet! Timing is best for me in the late morning and afternoon. Depending on the day, evenings and early mornings may work too.
