Pet Sitting Oak Park

“Stephanie went above and beyond to take care of our disgruntled pit bull. In the process of switching sitters and our dog was not being friendly at all when Stephanie showed up, despite the previous meet & greet. Scary to have a pit growling and barking at you but Stephanie was able to win her over. Relieved and impressed, will be rebooking Stephanie regularly.”

“Sara was amazing at taking care of our four dogs while we were away. We felt so lucky knowing that they were in good hands. She went above and beyond to give them extra exercise and attention with each visit and she paid close attention to their needs, health, and medications. She provided wonderful updates with the best details for each check in. Thank you so much, Sara!”

“We couldn’t have found a better sitter! Tara was super friendly, helpful and made us feel very secure during our trip that our 3 doggies were in good hands. Tara was patient with one our anxious dogs and he loved her! She helped give meds and injections to our other dog and made them all feel loved and not alone. Our doggies were happy in all the pictures and updates Tara sent and she left detailed notes on each visit. Beyond grateful finding Tara and will def book for future trips we have planned. Thank you so much again!!”

About: I’ve taken care of my own dogs, taught them tricks and dog/cat sat for multiple family members and family friends. I’m very empathetic towards animals and will always try to understand them and work around their personalities. I am soon starting college and I’ve been wanting to make a lunch budget by doing something on the side that I like! Being with animals is very calming to me so I think having the time with pets inbetween days would be lovely. I always will try to establish a trust between me and the pet, I will sit a comfortable distance away and have your pet give trust on their own terms, I would like to be a sitter that your pet is friendly with and not just a person who comes in to feed them.

“Brenda was very patient with my 2 cats, who had never been left alone before. She took care of everything and I was very happy with the service she provided. Will definitely book again if needed.”

About: Hi, I’m Amanda! I’m a stay at home mom providing a safe, comfortable, and attentive home environment for dogs while their families are away. Our home is set up with dogs in mind, including a large, fully enclosed .25 acre backyard where they can get fresh air, play, and explore safely. We also have Luna, our friendly 7 year old dog, who enjoys the company of other dogs and can provide companionship for pups who are comfortable around other dogs. I’ve had dogs most of my life and have experience caring for dogs through all stages of life. I previously had my dog Cal from puppyhood through his battle with cancer, which taught me the importance of patience, medication management, special care, and paying attention to each dog’s individual needs. Because I’m home full time, your dog will have plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, and won’t be left alone for long periods. I understand that every dog has their own routine and personality, and I’ll work to keep them comfortable by following their normal schedule and preferences. Whether your dog loves playing in the yard, going on walks, relaxing at home, or simply having someone nearby, I’d love the opportunity to care for them. I’ll treat your pet like they are part of our family while making sure you receive updates and feel confident they are safe and happy.

“William was an awesome pet sitter! He was attentive and super nice with my kitties! He is a very passionate and caring sitter and I would recommend him to anyone.”

About: I’ve had both dogs and cats all my life! I have 2 years of professional experience & over 10 years of personal experience with pets of all ages. Very comfortable with anxious/disabled/senior pets who need specific care/diet/medication. I have a flexible schedule.

About: I’ve cared for animals my whole life. My family has a lovably big German shepherd and two little poms who we love. When I lived with my parents, I frequently walked and fed all three dogs. As well as administered meds to my senior poms. All types of animals, especially dogs and cats make me very happy and I love to show my appreciation to them for that. Helping anyone care for their furry friends would be an honor and gift. All pets deserve love, attention, care, and loads of playtime fun! I’m new to Rover and I work part time as a server at a sushi restaurant. On my days off, I would love to help care for pets. Please contact me directly for accurate availability, as my weekly schedule varies. However a typical week may look like: Tuesdays - 8 am - 10 pm available for walks, drop ins Wednesdays - 8 am - 10 pm available for walks, drop ins Sundays and Mondays : 8 am - 12 pm available for walks , drop ins (note: all late hour bookings are tentative to client/sitter previous trust building and confidence. Before booking any past dusk appointments, I respectfully request to build a rapport with the client through repeated earlier timed bookings beforehand.) In my home I have two friendly cats. They have experience with dogs and other cats as well. They don’t cause problems with other animals. Going to a clients home, I am willing to care for an animal however is requested. I’d love to play with, walk, feed, etc, and do drop ins.

About: Hi pet guardians! Thank you for considering me for your pet care needs. Please take a moment to review my bio and if you think I would be a good fit I look forward to hearing from you. 🙂 _____ About Me _____ I am a certified and insured dog trainer specialized in the area of applied canine ethology (dog socialization, and body language). _____ Experience, Education & Philosophy _____ I've done a lot of work in kennels, shelters and with rescue organizations, rehabilitating dogs with behavioral issues. I have a BSc in Psychology from the University of Central Florida, a certification in Canine Agonistic Behavior from Cambridge University's Ethology Institute, and I'm also a trainer in good standing with the Pet Professionals Guild. I'm a Fear Free practitioner, a positive (R+) trainer, and I adhere to ethical standards for modern, humane, science-based training. I treat every dog like my own, and the way I would hope to be treated if I was in their position: with endless patience, kindness, and sensitivity. All dogs in my care enjoy a managed environment prioritizing safety, comfort, fairness, and fun. Good manners are encouraged through the day with numerous opportunities to earn rewards, and I keep an anxiety-soothing routine with healthy periods of play, rest, mental stimulation, and physical exercise. Shy dogs get all the space they need and can initiate interaction on their terms, clingy dogs get lots of love and attention, and energetic dogs get engaged with lots of games and physical exertion!

About: I have had experience caring for dogs throughout my life. I had two dogs of my own for 17 years, which gave me many years of experience and of course giving them lots of love and attention. I have also spent many years around many of my family members pets and have helped care for them when needed. Also, I have helped neighbors and roommates with their dogs while they were away by making sure they were fed, cared for, and given attention. Most of my experience has come from caring for dogs belonging to people I know, and I truly enjoy spending time with animals. I understand how important it is for pet owners to feel comfortable knowing their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for while they are away. I work full-time, but I’m available evenings and weekends. I can also provide daily check-ins during the week to make sure your pet is happy, safe, and cared for. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment for every pet. I follow your pet’s routine and make sure they have plenty of attention, care, and exercise. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you know your pet is happy and safe.

“She has been absolutely amazing! When my husband and I need a dog walker in the future we will definitely be rebooking through her. Thoughtful and so great with Ziggy that my dog jumps for joy when she comes by to get her :)”

About: I've been caring for animals for many years and am the proud cat mom of two cats, Bandit and Luna. Through caring for my own pets, I've gained experience with feeding schedules, administering oral medications, monitoring health concerns, cleaning litter boxes, and providing enrichment and playtime. Friends, family, and coworkers have trusted me to care for their pets while they're away, and I understand how important it is to have someone dependable looking after a member of your family. Whether your pet loves attention and playtime or prefers a calmer approach, I'm happy to adapt to their needs and provide regular updates and photos for peace of mind. I work full-time during the week, but I make pet care a priority before and after work as well as on weekends. I'm available for drop-in visits and walks around my work schedule and will always communicate my availability clearly. I strive to be reliable, punctual, and consistent so pets can maintain their routines while their owners are away. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, preferences, and any special care instructions before every visit.

“Thank you Ana for taking care of my boys during the busy holiday weekend. I appreciate that you were able to step up and cover an extra day when my flight was canceled as part of the Southwest meltdown.”
