About: I treat every pup like my own. If your dog isn't napping or resting, we'll be active and engaged. That may include playing with their favorite toy, going on a walk, or getting plenty of belly rubs and pats. I believe dogs thrive on love, attention, and activity. Therefore, I make sure they're never bored or lonely. I'm currently a student at UIC with one class online and one class in person. My schedule is very flexible, which allows me plenty time for walks, drop-ins and overnight care. Your dogs safety and comfort are my top priorities. On walks, I let your pep lead the way so they can explore at their own pace. I love finding nearby parks where they can burn energy. It I'm caring for a pet in your home, I'll always follow your instructions closely to maintain their normal routine.

“Melanie is amazing with my spicy puppy. He always gives her a mean side eye but she rolls with the punches and is able to get him out and moving. She’s so good with him! He may not show it on the outside but I know he loves her. She’s awesome! 🤩”

About: Over the years, I’ve found myself drawn to caring for animals in small but meaningful ways. Whether it’s walking or playing with a family member’s energetic dog or simply offering companionship, I’ve always found fulfillment in their presence.What I may lack in professional dog care experience, I make up for with genuine attentiveness, patience, and affection. I understand how important it is to build trust with pets and their humans, and I’m committed to creating a safe, loving environment for your pets. As someone who’s cared for my aunt’s cats—including administering medication and tuning in to their unique personalities—I bring that same level of thoughtfulness and care to my work with dogs. As someone who works from home full-time, I have a flexible schedule and the freedom to work from just about anywhere—making it easy for me to prioritize your pet’s care. Whether it's a mid-day walk, potty break, or weekend with the owner's out of town, I can be present and attentive to assist you in caring for your pet's needs. Work with my schedule and I can work with your's. When providing services in your home, I will treat your space with the same respect and care I give your pets. I understand how important it is to feel comfortable with someone entering your home, and I take that trust seriously. With a patient, compassionate approach, I aim to create a calm and safe environment where your pet can feel relaxed, happy, and well cared for. As well as ensuring that the guidelines you provide are followed.

About: I grew up with dogs and for the past 7 years I’ve been a cat mom. I have experience with dogs, cats, rodents and some reptiles. I’m an animal lover so it’s easy for me to adjust to new pets 😊 I’m currently doing school online and I do work part time but for the most part I can work around my schedule for your babies! I do not have a fence which is why I would not mind being in a client’s home. I would also love for your pet to feel comfortable where they know.

About: I’m an experienced pet care provider with over 8 years of hands-on experience working with both dogs and cats of all breeds, ages, and temperaments. I also work professionally as a Veterinary Technician, which gives me advanced knowledge in animal health, behavior, emergency protocols, and medication administration. I currently work only 2 days per week, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. On days I’m home, your pet will receive full supervision, enrichment, and one-on-one interaction throughout the day. Even on my scheduled work days, I plan routines ahead and ensure that feeding, bathroom breaks, enrichment, and medication (if needed) are handled consistently and reliably. I provide care that is fully tailored to each pet and their owner’s preferences. Whether your pet has a specific routine, diet, training plan, or medical needs, I follow your instructions closely to ensure consistency and comfort.

About: I currently work as a part time canine coach for one of the Dogtopia Franchises. However, when I’m not at work running play groups; you’ll find me right at home doing the same thing with my mini pack! I have many repeat clients who frequently book with me because their dogs love coming over :) I live near a beautiful park with pathways for walking. I have a family pup who absolutely loves other dogs and he comes over frequently so your pup will have a friend if I have to step out and run errands. I also have a medium/large crate in case your pup needs time to calm down or simply just wants private time.I take frequent trips to the dog park and maintain an active lifestyle according to your dogs physical needs. I work very early shifts (5 am - 1 pm) and my boyfriend works afternoons so he’s able to take out the pups for their morning potty and I make sure they get out at least 2 more times before the end of the day. Our schedules align well with having at least 1 person home at all times. Feed all dogs separately if multiple dogs are in my home. Access to water 24/7, I have multiple water bowls around my apartment. 1 cage in case someone needs private time. Trips to the dog park under owner's consent.

About: Hi! I go by Anna. REACTIVE DOGS WELCOME! I started volunteering with animals when I was 10 years old, and it's been a part of my life ever since. I have a soft spot for cats & dogs who need a little help with socialization and training. I have experience with a vast variety of dog breeds, sizes, and needs - from miniature pinchers, to border collies, huskies, pitbulls, cane corsos and more! I also have 5+ years of experience working in behavior analysis, and am well-versed in reinforcement-based training. I work from home full-time with flexibility in my working hours. I don't currently have any pets of my own, which allows me to provide the ideal environment for dogs or cats who may need a quieter space or one-on-one attention. NO SIZE OR BREED RESTRICTIONS! I am home the majority of the time, though I may leave for 1-2 hours weekly to run errands. I do have crates available for pets who need them when home alone. I use pet-safe cleaning products and anything that may be potentially harmful is safely out of reach - I don't take risks. All of my windows have screens & I've mastered the art of entering a home without letting any curious animals escape. My apartment building has a pretty big yard, though is only fenced in on 3 sides. However, I am idealy located near miles of dog-friendly trails that can be reached on foot. I also prefer to use harnesses for dog walking as opposed to just collars, and have one available that can fit a dog up to 65lbs. I do NOT and will not use choke collars of any kind. For car rides: I do have and use a pet seat belt. Cats must be in carriers, which will also be attached the seat belt. Feel free to message me with any questions and safety and environment!

About: I love pets. My family has 3 dogs, the oldest we have had for 14 years. I’ve had experience caring for my dogs, feeding them, washing them, and tending to any wounds or illnesses they have. I have also taken care of friends pets which has allowed me to learn how to interact with different types of dogs. I work remotely from home and will be able to give your pets so much attention and love. I’m available for boarding Monday through Friday at any hours. I live in a great neighborhood so your pets will be safe going on walks. I also live near a park I think pets would enjoy walking through. All pets will be allowed on couches and sofas but I will also respect any trainings or boundaries the owners have. My top priority is your pets safety and to make sure they are comfortable and happy, this is why I only care for one pet a day. I will care for multiple pets from the same family/house.

Patrick was great with our dogs, we had to audible a walk due to the 4/4 heat advisory but Patrick still made sure they got plenty of attention and activity inside the house. Definitely recommend, and will continue to use him in the future.
