About: I am a cat mom to two bengals, and they are very high energy, so I am a pro at playing with cats. I have grown up with tabby’s my whole life, and I have seen such a range of unique personalities. I am excited to meet you and your fur baby! I’m currently working from home everyday except Thursday, so I have time during my lunch, before or after work, and on the weekends. I am right in Uptown, so I am walkable to a lot of the community, but I also have a car. I am happy to clean the litter box, food and water bowl, when needed. I can help with oral medications, brushing and nail trimming if I have a buddy.
“This was my first experience with Rover and Adrian made it a dream! He watched my 11yr old sassy black cat Kiki. He communicated with me every drop off, kept me updated with the cutest photos and followed all instructions perfectly. Even when our kiki was being grumpy, as expected, he still went above and beyond to try and get some enrichment in every visit. I will never forget the hilarious photos of our cat angry, side eyeing or being disinterested in his favorite toy. Protesting the absence of his owners. 😂 I would definitely rebook with Adrian in a heart beat!”
About: I have been walking dogs and dog sitting for roughly 10 years now. I’ve stayed overnight and would house sit for people too. Though I have spent a lot of time caring for family and friends pets in my area, I would love to expand and care for your pets too! I’m currently working part time so I will have plenty of free time during the week for drop in visits and dog walks and whatever else needs to be taken care of. In my home, I have a fenced in yard for my golden-doodle with lots of room to run around. He is very friendly with everyone he meets and loves having play dates with other puppies.
About: Hi, I’m Vanessa! I’m currently in college but my family has been fostering dogs since I was in middle school, so I have experience with every kind of dog from 8-week puppies to older dogs to three legged ones! I currently have 2 rescues I help take care of and train, and love volunteering at animal shelters(Chicago Canine and Wright Way) in my free time, so I have a wide variety of experiences when it comes to caring for animals. Whether it be walking one dog or bathing a van load of puppies, I love spending time with all dogs!!!! I’m currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time for walks, check-ins, and overnight stays. I’m available during the weekdays and most weekends, and my schedule is very flexible. I have experience with basic dog training classes, and my two dogs are both crate trained so I can follow any dogs schedule, strict or relaxed, and make sure they’re safe and comfortable. I also love to play with them and help them get the physical and mental stimulation they need to be happy and healthy!
About: I have been a dog owner since 1992. My family had 2 Labradors and now currently have small rescue dogs at home. I have taken care of family and friends dogs over the years I am a full time teacher so for now I am available on the weekends drop by visits. When summer comes I should have a much greater availability. My first focus will be the safety of your animal and making sure it receives all its basic needs while I’m entrusted in their care.
“Mary is always reliable and great with our animals. She communicates well and takes good care of them when we are gone. She also listens to what we ask her to do with them including meds for our elderly cat.”
About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for dogs, cats, and even a bunny. I've had pets of all sizes and personalities and know how important it is to have someone you trust when you're away. Whether it's cuddles, playtime, or a relaxing walk, I treat every pet like my own. Let me give your furry friend the care and attention they deserve💜 I work from home most weekdays and have flexibility to pop in and spend some time with your fur babies or stay a few hours and work from your home. I can either go to your house and spend a few minutes or a few hours depending on you and your fur babies needs. Open to options
