“Sara is amazing! Our prim loved having her around! It’s hard to trust people with our baby especially since she has a new disability, and Sara made her feel so comfortable. She is very respectful, responsive, and a great human. We’ll def have her help us with prim again whenever we can :)”

4. Grace H.
About: Hello everyone! My name is Grace and I have been an animal lover my whole life. I have had & trained dogs and horses growing up and now I live with my two cats, Miso and Raven in OB. I would love to be best friends with your pet and provide them with the best care possible! My scheduled is very flexible right now, please feel free to shoot me a message at any time! I will answer as soon as possible. I have two cats at home who are happy to co-exist with a dog that won’t chase them. In someone else’s home, I am completely respectful and only use items for the pet that are specified by the owner.

20. Olivia C.
About: Hi everyone! My name is Olivia, and I've been an animal lover for as long as I can remember, especially when it comes to dogs of all shapes and sizes! I'm a compassionate and responsible pet sitter with hands-on experience in a variety of pet care services, including dog walking and overnight stays. I recently relocated moved here from Chicago, where I volunteered at the PAWS shelter in Lincoln Park. I now have a flexible schedule throughout the week and weekends, which allows me to care for your dogs and provide peace of mind for owners who may be away for an extended period. I live in a safe, pet-friendly apartment in Crown Point, just across from a dog-friendly park and plenty of walking paths. Rest assured, your pup will be in great hands with me! I work from home and have the flexibility for dog walks, playtime, and care. Because I make my own weekly schedule, I am able to accommodate to your pups needs! I pet-proof my own apartment. I have high countertops which are out of reach for dogs of any size. I keep all of the dogs items in a centralized place (leash, poopy bags, food, treats, etc).
