Pet Sitting North Park

“Parisa is a godsend! Amazing communication and availability- makes it super easy to schedule. Our pup loves Parisa’s visits (sometime too much when she pees from excitement!). We have a lot of guilt leaving to go to work, but knowing Parisa’s coming gives us such peace of mind. Beyond that, Parisa is super patient with our often stubborn dog. We struck gold finding her.”

“Anana was amazing! Even though it was a quick check in she still sent me pictures which was really kind of her. Would definitely book her again!”

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for pets in many different life stages and personalities. I have a 15 year old senior Chihuahua who has been through surgeries and illnesses, and through attentive care, patience, daily walks, and lots of love, she is still healthy, happy, and strong today. I also rescued an adult cat from the street who is now around 3–4 years old. Helping him adjust taught me patience, understanding, and how important it is to make animals feel safe and comfortable. In addition, I have an energetic 8-month-old kitten who keeps me active and experienced with younger pets as well. I am also a runner who’s ran the Chicago marathon, I am prepared to keep up with high energy pups! My pets are truly my family, and I understand how important it is to trust someone with your animals. Under my care, your pets will be treated with the same patience, attention, love, and priority that I give my own. I am available most days of the week for walks and drop-in visits, for house sitting I am mostly available on weekends. I keep my schedule updated daily :) I will care for your pet in your home and always follow your instructions carefully to maintain their normal routine and comfort. I understand how important it is to keep things consistent for animals, so I will make sure to follow all feeding schedules, care notes, and any special directions you provide. I will also provide regular updates so you can feel confident and at ease while you’re away, including messages, photos, and any important notes about how your pet is doing. My goal is to keep you fully informed and reassured. Most importantly, I will care for your pet in the environment where they feel safest and most comfortable, your home, so they can stay relaxed, secure, and stress-free while receiving attentive and loving care.

“Ellie was awesome! She took the time to warm up to my scaredy rescue cat and give her lots of play time while I was out of town. Would definitely book again!”

“Annabel is fantastic! She took great care of my furball and I am grateful for the nice notes and pics while I was gone. It was nice to come home see a happy kitty, and know he was cuddled and had playtime everyday too. Highly recommend!”

“We are so grateful for the excellent care our cat received while we were away for two weeks over Christmas and New Year’s. Communication was clear and consistent, updates were reassuring, and it was obvious our cat was well cared for and comfortable the entire time. Traveling over the holidays can be stressful, and it was such a relief knowing everything at home was handled with care and reliability. We would absolutely book again and highly recommend.”

About: I have been around animals my whole life and have always taken care to watch cues and communication that animals give to make them feel most comfortable and happy! I have also volunteered at animal shelters to take dogs on walks, feed them, and give them one-on-one attention. Pet care will be my sole job this summer, meaning that I will take full responsibility of the jobs I have with your babies. I want them to enjoy their summer just as much as I will! I make sure to give animals undivided attention when I am with them. Housesitting and walking animals is as much an experience for me as it is for them. Their life is too short to not stop and smell the flowers - quite literally in the cases of dog walks!

About: *ABOUT ME* One of my favorite parts of childhood was naming my pet cats (from “Princess Kate” to “Snowball,” the options were endless!). As a shy child visiting friends’ houses, you would find me spending the time in the company of the resident pets. Now, I love befriending people too, but my love for animals never left me. It brings me joy to be with animals and show them my love! Whether that means stroking their noses, keeping litter boxes clean, or patrolling hairballs. I am highly observant and will adjust to your pets’ energy level and personality. I will eagerly play hide-and-seek or tag with your dog or cat in the yard or sit and bird-watch through an open window. (And, while I’m not a professional singer, cats seem to like my vibrato). :) *Older Adult Care & Special Skills* In my personal life, my experience in older adult care means I am naturally attentive, gentle, and highly patient. I am respectful of following routines and instructions, making me a perfect fit for senior pets who need a slower pace, comfort, and extra patience. I am fully comfortable following exact food schedules and watching over multiple cats at once. *Your Home and Trust* I treat your pets and your home with respect. I am highly communicative and will enjoy sending pictures to brighten your day. I’m currently working part-time, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pets! I am free after 3pm on weekdays, free all day on Wednesdays, and all-day on weekends. I am available to house sit on weekends and after 3pm on weekdays. During house visits or drop-ins, I will carefully follow instructions and make sure the doors are locked when I enter/leave. I will respect your space and make sure animals are safely settled in the right place before leaving. I will ensure dog collars are secure before stepping outdoors and keep dogs on leash at all times when outdoors.

“Houston was awesome with my two large dogs. They were well taken care of and Houston had excellent communication, patience, and flexibility with me for all of the changes in my schedule the day she was with them.”

About: Your pets deserve more than just a sitter; they deserve someone who genuinely loves them. I’ve spent my whole life surrounded by animals, and for more than a decade I’ve turned that passion into a profession as a dog walker and cat sitter, while volunteering at local shelters along the way. I’ve cared for every personality under the sun including the shy ones, the wild ones, the velcro dogs, the aloof cats, and I love them all. What sets me apart? I treat every pet like my own. Not as a catchphrase, but as a promise. Accommodating each pet’s individual needs comes naturally to me, and every animal I care for gets the same love and attention I’d give my own. Your pet’s comfort, happiness, and safety are always my top priority. If you’re looking for someone reliable, communicative, experienced, and truly passionate about animals, you’ve found them. I hope to meet your pet very soon! I work from home during the week, so my schedule is pretty flexible! For drop-in visits and walks, I’m available after 4pm on weekdays and anytime during weekends. During our meet and greet, we can discuss all the ins and outs of your pets needs! Depending on the service, how I care for your pet in your home is variable. Dog walking includes 25 minutes outside, and 5 minutes inside for a little time to refresh their water, and playtime, or cuddle time, depending on what your dog is feeling! Cat visits inside, I tend to go by what one communicates during our meet and greet. Usually it will include cuddles, water refresh, and/or playtime. I will always take my shoes off, and double check to see if I locked your door correctly! :)

About: I treat every pet like family - with patience, love, and lots of belly rubs! What sets me apart is my personalized, compassionate care. From playful pups needing training and fun walks to seniors needing meds and gentle attention - I'm here for it all! Pet care is a joyful part of my routine, and I build my schedule around it. I am available weekends and various weekdays for walks, and drop-ins. Whether it's a puppy needing playtime or a senior dog needing extra care, I'm flexible and committed to making sure every pet feels safe, loved, and cared for like family. Whether in my home or yours, I create a calm, loving space where pets feel safe. With a fenced yard and nearby parks, they'll enjoy playtime, cuddles, and fun adventures - plus personalized care and consistent routines.

About: I've had a dog since I was ten years old. I've grown up dog sitting and walking dogs with my family and on my own. I fostered a dog on my own during COVID for 8 months until she could find her forever home. I'll be working part time during the day and evenings. I can walk dogs in the morning and afternoons and board during the weekends with frequent play time and walks during the day. Regular walks, always having water available for the dog. It's important to always keep an eye on the dog to ensure they're safe and happy. Keeping dangerous food/things out of reach and generally just being aware at all times and regular play to ensure happiness and comfortability.

“Karli was great! She was really thorough with daily updates and to my surprise, my apprehensive natured cats, felt very comfortable to interact with her. Thanks again, Karli!”

“Great job caring for 7 cats, it’s always complicated as the care is not the same for every one of them but Sheena was able to manage them all.”

About: I had my first dog when I was 5 years old. I personally took care of 4 Pitbulls and 1 Yorkshire. I've worked in a dog day care for 4 years. I was responsible in their safety; I follow instruction and communicate consistently to make sure their dogs are well taken care of. I pride myself in providing quality service and giving my best in taking care of my client's pets. I work part-time with flexibility. I can accommodate any day of the week as long as I'm given 1-2 days of notice. I can be flexible on weekend as long as it fits my schedule. I live nearby parks in the city where I can conveniently walk the dogs. I have an extra room to accommodate for dogs if needed.

“Friendly, reliable & thorough. Angelica gave us so much peace of mind when we were out of town by watching our two cats. She provided ample photos (which we absolutely loved) and took care of any little requests we had in the meantime. By time we were back they made a made a new friend in Angelica. (: Thanks a million!”
