“Yuliia is Haku’s favorite sitter for many reasons. She is so sweet and communicative which I really appreciate. I enjoy the pictures and updates she sends throughout the day while I’m at work! Haku is going on vacation for the next month, but I’m sure he’ll miss his favorite sitter very much. We can’t wait to see her again when we come back!”

“Jackie was treated with love and attention—the tail wags said it all! Everything was clean, and well-organized, and felt like a second home for my pup. I’m so grateful and will definitely be coming back. Thank you Jackie! Highly recommend!”


“Aaron is one of the very best dog sitters around! He took such good care of our 2.5-year-old husky, Bowie. Aaron was watching several other dogs as well and took them all to the dog park in Oak Park. She had a blast. He sent us lots of updates and videos while she was in his care. He also asked all the right questions, even some I hadn't thought of, to best address Bowie’s needs and comfort. I highly recommend Aaron’s dog-sitting services. He took Bowie into his care on short notice for the 4th of July. He is a true gem! Thank you so very much ❤️”

About: I’ve been a dog owner for my whole life and trained both of my dogs! Throughout college I’ve taken various dog sitting jobs and will happily send my references. Love to go for long walks with dogs and spending lots of quality time together! When I am home from college, I have nothing but free time throughout the week to spend with dog(s)! I will plan for morning, afternoon, and evening walks with dog(s). I will plan multiple walks throughout the day with the dog(s) and feedings depending on the specified instruction of the owner. I also will also plan for plenty of quality time with them!

About: I’ve always loved animals and enjoyed helping take care of family and friends’ pets. I’m gentle, responsible, and always treat every pet like my own. Whether it’s feeding, walking, or simply giving them attention, I always make sure they feel comfortable and loved. I’m currently not working full-time, so I have flexible availability throughout the week. I’m happy to care for pets during the day or evening, depending on your needs. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I’ll be there to help! I provide a calm and safe environment with lots of love and attention. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully, making sure each pet feels secure and cared for. I’m happy to care for pets in your home or mine, depending on what’s best for your furry friend.

About: I love animals and am very welcoming to all pets. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, rabbits, and even birds. I’m often relied on to walk, feed, and bathe both my own pets and others. I’m currently a part-time student so I have plenty of time to care for pets! I have classes on Monday and Wednesday for only 3 hours. I tend to go out with friends on tuesdays and wednesdays around 4pm but I’m always back by 8. I have 1 dog (a golden retriever) who is very gentle and friendly with others. She gets a bath every month and is walked twice a day. When I care for other dogs I can create a flexible walking schedule. My house is large enough to house at least 3 large dogs. My parents also help care for pets, my dad loves to play with animals and my mom is great at training pets.

“Nadia was SUPER helpful and you could tell how genuine she was. My dog is usually not liked by daycares because of his silliness but Bark Blvd is one of the only daycares who loves him and he came home absolutely KNACKERED after his first day. We could tell he was so happy to be there.”

K9 UniversityLocal facility
“My dog has been going to K9 University for about 8 years. When I’m out of town or not I take him there for doggy daycare. They take care of his grooming. I also have enrolled my dog into their classes for nose work, agility and obedience and my dog absolutely loves it. I am also satisfied with the results and experience of K9 University INC. Their staff members are well trained and they all practice the same delivery of services, for instance, what one staff members provide in quality customer services so does the remaining 5 staff members, therefore the quality you receive from this company isn’t compromised; moreover, they go above and beyond. They are all very professional and possess a wonderful attitude – they look very happy to be there. I’ll most definitely recommend using K9 University INC.”

Caroline D.
“When Caroline met my two pups the first time, two things struck me. First, she paid more attention to the dogs than she did to me (as it should be) and second, my dogs immediately took to her with an affection they usually reserve for family. The dogs adore her. When she sat with the dogs, we received regular updates and pictures of happy pups and came home to a house that was tidier than it was when we left. She is a delight to work with! I give her my highest recommendation!”


Liliia H.
“Liliia is amazing with animals! She’s patient, responsible, and truly loves what she does. I’ve seen how she treats pets—with love, care, and full attention. Highly recommend!☺️”
