About: I’ve always been very passionate in animals. I have taken care of animals since I was 12 years old. I started my own dog treat business when I was 13 year old. I am currently a student at Joliet Junior college. I am looking for a part time job. I will be available during the day and overnight. I have no pets. I currently live with my parents. My mom is allergic to animals so I will not be able to take them to my home.

“Bridgitt is fantastic! She thinks of the little things and always put our babies first. She sent videos, updates and pics throughout our entire trip which we appreciated so much. Our older cat had gotten seriously sick a few weeks before so we were very concerned having to leave. She made us feel so secure that everyone was in good hands. THANK YOU BRIDGITT!”


“Lisa was great!!! This was our first dog/house sitting with Rover. We were hesitant having a stranger in our home but Lisa made me feel at ease during our initial meeting. She seemed genuine and extremely kind. She respected our home as it was her own. She took the initiative to gather used items and left our home very clean. She kept the dogs routines, did everything we asked and followed our home request. Our dogs were spoiled that’s for sure!!! So grateful to have met her.”

About: I have had 6 dogs and 5 cats as my own personal pets and love them with all my heart. I was also a volunteer at PAWS in Tinley Park for 5 years, and then volunteered at the Human Society in Plainfield for an additional 3 years. I have had 5 dogs at one time as family members in my own home. I have helped some of the most difficult dogs become adoptable when I volunteered. I work part time and I also babysit for my grandchildren as needed. I do have days where I am not scheduled for either, so I would like to help someone with their pet if I can. I cannot watch someone's animal in my home. One of my dogs is a senior dog who is on medication for seizures. I will only go to the clients home to walk, feed, and show love and kindness. My own animals are on a regular routine. They are fed in the morning, water is always present. My cats have access to their food 24/7 (they like to graze). My dogs go outside in the morning, noon, later afternoon and 8 pm. I like there to be set times, so the dogs are in a routine.

“Eliza did a great job with my 3 large dogs. I have one that is a rescue and she doesn’t always warm up to new people but by the 2nd day she was sitting next to Eliza. Eliza stayed 3 overnights with them and the house was very tidy when we returned. Thank you! I would for sure book her again!”
