Dog Sitting Park Forest

About: I have an extensive background in professional animal care at grooming and boarding facilities, veterinary clinics, and educational institutions. I am fear-free and pet CPR certified and the owner of my small business, Passionate Pet Care where I consider the health and happiness of my clients to be my top and only priority. I graduated in 2024 with my bachelors degree in Animal Poultry and Veterinary Sciences and am currently obtaining my DVM degree at the University of Illinois at Urbana- Champaign. Throughout my many experiences, I have become comfortable working with a variety of breeds, sizes, ages, and health conditions. If I had to choose 2 words to describe myself, they would be reliable and attentive. I have a deep passion for animal welfare and I hope to have the privilege of meeting your little family member soon! I’m currently off for summer break so my availability is open! I am used to caring for pets on a daily basis as I have a 5 year old domestic short hair, Leo and I often help my parents and friends care for their pets. The safety and comfort of every pet in my care are my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, preferences, and any special needs to ensure they feel secure and well cared for while you're away. I closely follow all feeding, medication, exercise, and household instructions provided by pet parents. When caring for pets in a client's home, I treat the home with the same respect and care that I would my own. I keep doors and gates secure, maintain a clean environment, and provide regular updates with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you're away! <3

About: As a lifelong animal lover with years of experience in pet care, I understand that every pet has their own unique needs. I pride myself on having a strong sense of animal behavior and adjusting care accordingly to each individual pet’s temperament. I have a great deal of experience with senior pets and/or pets with a strict medication regimen. I understand that these animals often need additional patience and compassion and I am always striving to reliably provide such care. This includes administering edible, topical, and injectable medications. I have experience with dogs of all shapes and sizes as well as cats and small animals (birds, fish, reptiles, etc) so you can rest assured that your beloved critters are in good hands! I do my best to be communicative so I am always willing to discuss any additional details or concerns with my clients. My main goal in pet care is to provide reliable and respectful service that keeps your furry friend happy and gives you peace of mind in knowing they are properly cared for while you are away. I hope that I get to meet you and your pets very soon! Pet care is currently my main focus so my weekly schedule is almost always open. I am extremely flexible with scheduling which means I will be available to do reoccurring visits or extended pet sitting if need be. I have my own transportation so I am happy to make visits that are a bit out of my area as well. I have worked in professional pet care for 7+ years which has including both daily dog walking and overnight house-sitting. Being respectful of my client’s pets and their homes is of utmost importance to me. As well as pet sitting I am more than happy to take on other house-sitting responsibilities such as watering plants and bringing in mail/packages. I always appreciate strong communication and always do my best to provide prompt updates while you are away

About: I have a unique blend of experience that enables me to give the highest quality of care. I've been a pet mom for 15 years to dogs, cats, and pigs. I also founded and run an animal rescue since 2020. In addition, I spent a year training at a wildlife rehab facility. Essentially, I have devoted my life to making sure animals feel loved and cared for. Your precious baby will be in the best hands! I am very flexible with my schedule and am happy to work around what is best for you and your pets! I have plenty of time to make sure your babies are well cared for and have proper enrichment! I will come to you, so that your pet feels safe and happy in their own environment. Earning their trust is essential and very important to me. All companion animals deserve respect, to feel safe, loved, and have lots of enrichment.

About: I love to spend time with them , I like to play with them, I like to take them to the park. I will always keep them on a leash. I can teach them some tricks, sit , stay roll over. I can take them out every two hours, to go potty. I can keep them over night. I took care of a one eye cat, I took care of a blind dog. I have had dogs in diapers. I took care of a Yorkshire, who was pregnant, she went into labor at my house, and my mom and I delivered three little babies they came out every forty minutes. We help clean the babies, and my dog Chuckie helped to. Give them kisses, hugs.

“Anna has been a kind, caring, and thoughtful dog walker for us. She is great with Herky right from the start (even when he was hesitant). We love the pictures Anna sends and she's always conscientious about communication. Highly recommend her!”

About: I’ve always loved taking care of my furry and not so furry friends!! I grew up in a home full of dogs and a vast range of animals such as reptiles, amphibians, and other aquatic life etc. I’m currently working from home so my schedule is generally open as far as Monday-Friday. I’m available throughout the entire weekend as well. I like to keep the animals in my care on a schedule so they aren’t stressed, I prioritize (the animal’s) comfortability and structure because that’s just what makes sense. It’s my duty to ensure your furry friend can have fun AND be safe so please bombard me with any and all information!!!

About: Ive owned so many variety's of pets from cats and dogs to gerbils, hamsters, mice, and turtles from 8-18 years old. I love animals and will always put their well-being first in any situation. I am currently a student at Fox working towards my Veterinary Technicians License. I speak Spanish and English! I am currently a full time student-but am available between the hours of 5pm-9pm after school hours and available between 6am-8pm on weekends. I know precisely how to read and animals body language and know when something is wrong. An animal can let me know when they feel uncomfortable and I can let the owner know right away. I have handled many shelter animals and pets and can know when something is not right or if they feel uncomfortable.

“Mark is extremely responsible, timely communicates very well about any issue is able to handle a reactive dog. His patience and kindness are quite the asset.”

About: I love animals! Sometimes their moms, dads, or owners need a little help to care for their furbabbies and I’m here to provide compassionate care and protection! I work part-time and am open to new opportunities to fill my schedule especially with the love of an animal who needs a little attention. Depending on the animal and the service requested, I treat pets with discipline and a gentle but firm touch. My goal is to protect the animal, myself, the owners, and the public.

About: I come from a long line of dog lovers. I have a friendly spoiled 2yr old pit bull who would love some four-legged companionship. I have a young child in the house so dogs do have to be child friendly. I have a small home and any dog that stays here would have free run of my home, that includes laying on couches and beds. I do not have much of a yard so dogs will have to be leashed and walked for potty time, otherwise inside the house they are free to play and do what ever their heart desires. Why I love dog sitting I have always been a dog lover. I have had at least two dogs as pets since I was 2 years old. My current dog Boo is like a child to me. I love to spoil her with walks, toys, treats, and car rides when ever possible. About my yard No backyard but have plenty of room and beautiful scenery for walks. My experience administering medication Yes, I can adminster medication if needed. My dog is currently on three different me ds after suffering a severe allergic reaction back in August.

About: Growing up, my love for pets has grown from the times I took care of my own to others rather it was for enjoyment or helping the ones I love. I owned pets from a wide variety, from frogs to fishes to dogs. My recent pet was an American Mixed Pit-bull Terrier, from here my love for Pit-bulls grown beautifully for their personalities and charismatic love. My care with cats began last year as got to get close to my families cat, "Catty". I have spent weeks of watching and caring for him with needs of food, litter, playing and confronting him when he missed his owner on their trips. In Conclusion, my love for pet care is unconditional as I jungle my personal life with the understanding giving a helping hand to people in need. I am currently a full time student at Xavier University Of Louisiana and working part time at Five Guys in Matteson. As a current student a Xavier, located in New Orleans, I take care of my studies and come home for my breaks. Additionally, as a Crew Member at Five Guys, I work 15- 20 hours a week on flexible schedule that perfect for being able to balance pet sitting and my personal life. Unfortunately, I don't care for pets in my home personally because of the pets that live here but I am open to walks and caring of pets in my potential clients home while providing a trustworthily and safe environment. All I ask is for the same respect and trust as well for a balance enjoyable and environment I can return to.
