Dog Sitting North Riverside

About: I am a licensed veterinary assistant and have three years of experience working in a animal clinic. I am able to quickly identify if there may be a problem with your animal while in my care and can take necessary action to ensure they remain safe. I have a open schedule since i am able to start focusing on my love for animals and helping others they may need help caring for their animals The care my own animals get is they are feed once a day and get treats throughout the day and go on walks or play with there toys or unwind and watch tv and I would treat the animals in my care with the same love or however it is their own cares for them

About: I work for an animal shelter so I have TONS of hands-on experience with animals of all sizes and temperaments. I have been pet-sitting independently for over 10 years and have had over 70 clients during that time. My love of animals led me to pursue a bachelors degree in animal science and get a job working at an animal shelter right out of college. I’ve worked in shelters ever since and absolutely love it! Because of my career, I have a lot of speciality experience. I’ve taken care of everything from bottle baby puppies/kittens to senior animals. I even had a senior, diabetic cat of my own, so medical needs are no problem for me! I do have a full time job and work 7:3-3:30 Tuesday-Saturday so my schedule can be a bit limited by that, however, I can try to be flexible. Unfortunately, I can not invite any pets into my home because my senior kitty prefers to have all the attention on him! I am happy to do home visits/walking as needed though, but can not do overnight stays due to the medical needs of my pet.

About: I've been a dog owner since I was 9 years old, so I know how important these furry guys are to their person! I've also volunteered at shelter's and have worked at a pet store giving customers the best advice to my ability and helping them. Be it dog/cat food, toys, collars, pet care, and much more! I will pay attention to your furry one and make them feel loved from the short time that they are away from you and give them the best experience that I can! I'm currently in school studying to become a Veterinarian! My Shih-Tzu Chuey made my life full of good memories and I want to make sure that every dog I can help is helped and lives a life full of love.

“We've used Yulissa twice and she's great with communication and always takes great care of our kitty. Will definitely continue to contact her in the future. Thanks Yulissa!”

About: Hi! 🐾 I'm a graduate student with a genuine love for dogs, and being a dog sitter is something I truly enjoy! Whether you need dog walking, dog sitting, or boarding, my goal is to make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and cared for while you're away. I believe every dog deserves personalized care, attention, and plenty of love. I treat every dog like my own and love getting to know their unique personalities, routines, and favorite things. I'm always thinking about the dogs in my care and finding little ways to make their time with me extra special! 🐶 **What makes my care special?** - **Daily updates:** You'll receive updates, photos, and videos so you can feel connected to your pup while you're away. - **Personalized report cards:** I love sharing how your dog's day went, including their activities, fun moments, and how they're doing. - **TikTok-style videos:** I enjoy making fun, memorable videos of the dogs I care for so you have something special to look back on! - **Holiday surprises:** For my returning clients, I love giving holiday gift bags and special treats for their pups as a little thank-you for trusting me. - **Birthday celebrations:** If I know your dog's birthday, you can bet I'll be thinking of ways to make their day extra special! 🎂🐾 I understand that your dog is family, and trusting someone to care for them is a big deal. I want you to feel comfortable knowing your pup is receiving loving, respectful, and attentive care. My goal is for your dog to look forward to spending time with me just as much as I look forward to spending time with them! I'd love to meet you and your furry best friend! ❤️🐶 I currently am free most of the week. I love to take care of animals, so please feel free to contact me regarding any questions. When taking care of your pet I will make sure to ask questions regarding any secret hide outs your pet might like to hide in or what their favorite toy is to keep them company.

About: I grew up with pets such as multiple cats and dogs big and little from the day I was born. I have also had many jobs of dog walking and dog sitting about 5 years of that. I will make sure your pets are fed, played with as well as happy and cared for. I’m very good at making sure there’s food and water as well as potty breaks and play times. If you hire me to pet sit your cute little animals I’m sure you’ll be happy they’re in good hands and won’t have to worry about them. I have no medical issues and no allergies so you wouldn’t have to worry about anything happening. I also love animals any breed and any type of species. You wouldn’t regret having me care for your animals and I prefer you to be happy for them in good care. What better way to spend time than being with animals. I’m always free and available to take care and provide my service to others and make them happy. I take care of them. We would bond and play with toys. Also I am a person who talks to animals like they’re human. We would have a fun time. I would make sure they’re fed and have water and any needs that their owner would want me to provide.

About: Hi, I’m Jhadira! 👋 I recently experienced a layoff from my corporate HR career, so I’m taking this opportunity to spend my time doing something I truly love, caring for dogs! I’m located in the La Grange area and have a large, fully fenced backyard that’s perfect for safe, supervised playtime. I share my home with my two spoiled pups, Charlie and August, and I also help care for my family’s senior dog, Tony. Caring for dogs through every stage of life has taught me that each one has their own personality, routine, and unique needs. I have over 7 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. My experience includes potty training puppies, working with high-maintenance dogs, caring for puppies undergoing treatment for intestinal worms and other temporary medical needs, administering oral medications, basic obedience training for both puppies and older dogs, walking and running with active dogs, and providing extra patience and specialized care for senior dogs. Whether your dog is full of energy, needs a little extra attention, or enjoys a slower pace, I’m happy to tailor my care to what makes them feel most comfortable. I’m also training for a half-marathon myself so if your dog needs that outdoor exercise I would gladly love the company on my runs! As a dog mom myself, I know how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member with someone else. That’s why I treat every dog as if they were my own. Their safety, happiness, and well-being are always my highest priorities. I’ll follow your dog’s routine closely, provide regular photo and video updates, and make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, exercise, and enrichment while you’re away. Over the years, I’ve also built relationships with wonderful local pet professionals. If you ever need recommendations, I’m happy to share trusted groomers and veterinarians that I’ve had great experiences with. Whether your pup loves long walks, backyard zoomies, playing fetch, learning new tricks, or curling up for a nap, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home. I can’t wait to meet you and your best friend! Open schedule, I have my own two dogs I look after but have all day to drop in for a walk or to check in on yours! I have a tight schedule with my own dogs and will make sure to make your fur baby feel as safe and loved as if they were home.

“Rosario has been amazing with our pets! Above and beyond expectations!! Thank you!!!”

About: Hi, I’m Jeff! I’ve been walking dogs since I was 13 and caring for big dogs since I was 22.

I follow the owner's instructions regarding feeding, exercise, and medication schedules. I respect the owner's property and belongings, and avoid entering areas I haven't been given permission to access. I communicate regularly with the owner, providing updates and photos of their dog. By adhering to these practices, I create a safe, trustworthy, and comfortable experience for both the dog and their owner.
