About: I’ve taken care of many types of animals growing up from horses to cat and dogs. I’m very confident in walking any dog any size, since in my school we’ve learned to adjust and adapt on animals behavior. I also can do any grooming needed (nails, brush teeth, bathe) if you can’t or too wary. I’ve also have well experience in cats. Ive owned cats since I was 15 so if needed I can also do any grooming needs as well. With senior dogs I know they may be more work than a normal dog but I’m up to the task without a second thought! I’ve had much experience with senior dogs. I understand that having animal comes with time management and that’s where I can help! I am current in vet tech school so I have the weekends available and Friday after 4:30pm. I am also willing to go after school mon-Friday after 4:30pm. For the animals in my house they get treated just like a member of the family! I make sure my cat and dog are always content, I take my dog out on daily walks and ensure my cat gets his daily play time. For the animals of your home they will be treated just the same.

“Heather is amazing! Right away my mind was at ease with having her stay with our pup. Our dog was relaxed and happy upon us returning and I know she was well taken care of and enjoyed her time with Heather. Will 100% be booking in the future 😊”


About: I have been around dogs and cats since I was a kid. Growing up I had an adorable pit bull that I would feed, walk, and bathe regularly. My family and friends also had cats that I would occasionally watch and feed as well. Recently I have excelled with sticking to strict dietary restrictions for a senior dog I sat to also helping leash train and walk my siblings 6 month old dog. I'm currently working part time and expect to attend college when the semester starts in late August. Luckily between my class schedule and work schedule I have more than enough flexibility to provide the service you and your pet need. I have personal dog walking experience and can provide a comfortable walking environment for your pet. I also have experience with rowdy dogs and can safely handle playtime.

“As always, Jennifer took fantastic care of our babies. She spends so much quality time with them. sends pictures, and even got our senior kitty to sleep on her lap!! It's evident the care she takes and how much she enjoys helping.”


“Being a first time dog owner and needing someone to watch Taylor was a bit nerve wrecking for me but I was easily calmed when we met ahead of time and saw how much Taylor enjoyed you. Thank you for caring for her like she was your own. I have no doubt we’ll be seeing you again in our future needs. Thank you!”

I carry a first aid kit on walks and am prepared to handle any minor emergencies. 5. **Socialization:** I believe in the importance of socialization for dogs, so I provide opportunities for them to interact with other dogs in a controlled manner during group walks, promoting good behavior and confidence. 6. **Client Communication:** I maintain open communication with pet owners, providing regular updates on their dogs' activities and well-being.

About: I’ve lived with and cared for dog my whole life, from labs, Great Pyreneeses, mutts, and others in between! I have supported my hometown neighbors with caring for their animals, whether that’s by walking, feeding, bathing, administering medication - I’m comfortable with it all. Over the past 7 years I have been a mom to two cats and have helped friends and family care for their felines. I truly believe our pets are family to us and I treat all animals with all the love and care they deserve 🤍 I’m currently working part time, so I have flexibility in my schedule to help care for your furry friends! I currently reside in Northwest Indiana and work on the southside of Chicago on Thursdays and Fridays, but if you are needing my services I’m open to discussing how I can meet your scheduling needs 😊 I am not currently offering care for animals in my home due to my two year old cat who has not quite yet met other animals. However I am more capable of caring for your pets in the comfort of their own home.

About: I was once a groomer and I have experiences with many type of dogs. I took care of newborn puppies many times as my parents breed the dogs at times I walk my dog constantly as I love and enjoy going on walks and I take care of dogs as a Kennel attendant at a vet I play with dogs and enjoy them. I love having them enjoy themselves and letting them take their time to know me and not forcing them to get used to me

About: What sets me apart is my deep love for animals and the genuine joy I get from caring for them. I’ve been dog sitting regularly since 2023, and I’ve had the pleasure of caring for a wide range of breeds from high energy huskies and playful small dogs to sweet pit bull mixes. I also adore cats and always make sure they feel just as loved and comfortable. Pet care fits perfectly into my weekly routine! I work full-time at a golf course, but my schedule is very flexible—I either start work in the afternoon or finish early in the day. This allows me to be home and fully present for pets during mornings, evenings, and even overnight. I’m available for overnight stays and truly enjoy them—it gives me more time to bond with pets and helps them feel safe and comfortable in their own home. My flexible schedule means I can stick to their routines, give them plenty of attention, and be there when they need me most. When I am caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to stay consistent with their routine. I follow all feeding schedules, provide fresh water, take dogs on walks or potty breaks as needed, and ensure they get plenty of playtime and affection. I always keep the home clean and tidy out of respect for the client. If I’m staying overnight, I make sure the pets aren’t left alone for long periods and get lots of attention, comfort, and companionship. Their happiness and well-being are always my top priorities.

About: I’ve grown up with animals my whole life, I was actually raised on a farm! We spent mornings caring for the horses, chickens, pigs, etc. We’ve always had dogs in the home, and in my eyes, pets are just an extension to the family! I have experience with reptiles, birds (I have a cockatiel named Mila), and other exotics as well. I work Monday-Friday 9a-5p. I’m available all day on the weekends. During the week, I’m available early mornings before I head to the office, and anytime after 5pm. My pets are my children, and I will treat yours with the same amount of love, play, and attention that they deserve! While I’m not an experienced trainer, I strongly believe that any training you have in place should be respected, and upheld while you’re away. With direction, I would be happy to do just that!
