“Thank you for the wonderful care you provided to our doggie! We appreciate the thoughtfulness of the photos you took of him and can tell he enjoyed his time with you. It was such a relief to find someone so kind and responsible to take care of our fur baby. We hope you will be able to help us in the future.”

“Michelle did a great job caring for our family member Lily. She was great about communication and I could tell she was really trying to make sure Lily ate while we were gone and even gave her a little preventative medicine when she noticed Lily eating grass. Lily seem to do much better at home than in a kennel being boarded so I’m sure we will definitely use Michelle again for future trips. I would highly recommend from Michelle.”

“Danielle was amazing - she took the time to get to know our dogs' personalities, and they loved spending time with her. The communication was wonderful and she sent very thorough reports, and the cutest pictures. We'll absolutely use Danielle again!”

About: I've been helping care for animals for as long as I can remember! I have helped my family pet sit, volunteered at the animal shelter, and genuinely enjoy the company of animals. I am currently working as a freelance artist! Between gigs I have lots of flexible time to come take care of your pets. I am available for drop-ins/walks most days of the week, and I usually have some weekend availability! It's a priority of mine to establish trust with your animals! I am very keen on body language and other behavioral cues that allow me to meet your pets where they're at. If there are special instructions for an animal, I make sure to follow them to the letter.
“Robin did a fantastic job checking-in and walking my dogs while I was out of town. She sent pictures of the pets while she was at the house and gave a summary of her visit once she left. I will definitely use her services in the future and recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and dependable person to look after their pets.”

About: I’ve always had dogs and other pets growing up so I obviously love them!! But I have also taken care of my sisters bad puppy multiple times so I know how to deal with dogs with sass 😂 I am a current student athlete at Roosevelt university downtown Chicago, but I am free during most weekdays after 2pm. In the summer I will be available basically whenever! I am living at my dorm so I would go to your house but I would just try to make the dog feel comfortable with me, provide them with the right care and love!!
About: I’ve lived with and taken care of cats, dogs, and exotic pets my whole life. I’ve been responsible for bathing, walking, giving them food and water, scooping litter boxes, clipping nails, and everything else your pet will need since I could walk. I’ve also pet sat for friends and family before, overnight or just for a check-in. I love spending time with my animals and I hope I get to meet yours too! I’m currently a student at USC, go Gamecocks! On MWF, my classes end at 2 so I am free anytime after that. Tuesdays and Thursdays are a little more spread out, however I should be able to stop in almost whenever to watch your pet! I am totally free on the weekends and can do anything but boarding your pet. Back at my house, I always make sure to be aware of my surroundings if I am outside, watching for other dogs, cars, other animals, or people. I will carry this same caution when taking care of your animals, whether in the home or outside of it!
About: I have owned 3 huskies before because of me being a husky owner. I have dealt with stubbornness and big personalities. I loved their personality! I prefer to do it on weekends because my work schedule is very unpredictable but I have no problem going after work if you need me to! I always pay attention to a dog’s body language. It gives me an idea what they are feeling, how their health is, and overall if their needs are met like food, water, or had enough miles to walk.
About: I’ve had my own dog since 2nd grade, which gave me years of hands-on experience with training, walking, feeding, and bathing. Caring for my own pet taught me patience, responsibility, and how to understand different dog personalities and needs. In addition to my own dog, I’ve also helped care for neighbors’ pets and done in-home sitting. I’m comfortable following specific routines, giving lots of attention and exercise, and making sure pets feel safe and loved while their owners are away. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I already prioritize being active and consistent. I’m used to planning my day around walks, feeding schedules, and giving pets attention, so adding more pets into my routine feels natural. On a weekly basis, I make sure I have plenty of time for walks, playtime, and check-ins, and I’m flexible with mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I enjoy being active, so walks and outdoor time are something I genuinely look forward to, not just a task. I always adjust my care based on each pet’s routine and personality. In a client’s home, I focus on keeping everything as normal as possible—following feeding schedules, walk routines, and any specific instructions to help pets feel comfortable and stress-free in their own space. I make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and affection while maintaining a calm, clean environment. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, supervised, and comfortable space where they can relax and feel at ease. I keep a consistent schedule for feeding, walks, and potty breaks, and make sure pets get lots of exercise and one-on-one attention. No matter the setting, I prioritize safety, communication, and making sure each pet feels loved and well cared for while their owner is away.

“Julia was amazing! I needed someone sort of last minute and she was out of town but made sure to make it back and to our house for a meet and greet. She came and took care of everything, sent pics and an update which eased any worry about being gone long. Definitely will use Julia in the future!”

About: I've taken care of dogs ever since i was 14, having pets of my own right now it being a golden retriever. I've been relied on to walk/bathe/ groom my friends and family's pets. I have nothing going on besides taking care of my pup, so I definitely have time to take care of yours! Im available Monday through Thursday, 11am - 9pm unless Im pet sitting full day.
