Dog Sitting in Park Forest

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.

“Lisa is attentive and reliable! I had never used Rover before but we needed someone to feed our cats while we were away. I booked Lisa for multiple drop-in visits based on her reviews and I’m very glad I did. She is communicative and caring. Definitely recommend!”

About: Hi! I’ve had dogs my entire life and truly understand that every pup is different. I trained my own stubborn Yorkie with patience and consistency, and I currently care for my senior Golden Retriever who has hip issues so I’m experienced with both energetic young dogs and gentle, slower-paced seniors. Whether your dog needs structured walks, positive reinforcement, or a calm and patient pace, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, understood, and happy every step of the way. I treat every dog like my own and always prioritize safety, communication, and making sure you feel completely comfortable while your pup is in my care. I’d love to meet your best friend! 🐶💛 Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I have a very open and flexible schedule. I prioritize staying active and structured in my days — I regularly go to the gym and attend Bible study — which allows me to consistently plan walks and drop-ins throughout the day. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening walks, including weekends, and I’m happy to accommodate last-minute or same-day requests when possible. As a lifelong dog owner, I understand how important trust is, and I treat every dog with the same patience and care I give my own.

About: I fell in love with dogs ever since my grandma took me with her to get a husky. Bravo felt like mine and i’ve been helping her take care of him since I was 8 I am a college athlete and spend a lot of time training. I am pretty flexible with my schedule now and I believe this can be too! In a client’s home, I respect the pet’s routine and the owner’s instructions carefully. I will treat their home like it’s my own, keeping it tidy and clean. I will be communicative, giving updates and pictures. My goal is to make your fur baby feel relaxed and loved in whichever environment they are in.

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 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.

“Jacquelyn and Ryan arrived on time and immediately connected with my senior fur babies. They were gentle and kind to me (as I am recovering from surgery and can't do much yet) and to my dogs. I trusted them and look forward to using their services again soon!”

About: I have 2 dogs of my own and I also work at a dog shelter. I have worked with many different kinds of dogs at the shelter including puppies and big dogs. I have walked big and small dogs and fostered different dogs so i’m open to anything! I currently work part time so i will have a lot of time to work with your dogs! I am free most of the time I do not have a fenced in yard but I would love to take your dogs for walks and play indoors with them whenever needed

About: I grew up in a household of large dogs, I am very good at reading body language, and I have an incredible amount of free time to dedicate to any extra needs! I am currently available everyday and any drop off hour works for me. I wake up with the sun so morning walks will be a breeze as I also live down the street from a park and down the road from a forest preserve. I live in a 6-bedroom house, occupied by two adults, backyard is not closed in, but there are many nearby parks available for playtime. 3 pets, 2 bearded dragons enclosed in a separated terrarium which is located upstairs, and a 7 month old cane corso. All are incredibly friendly and curious but can be given their own space if need be.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for a while, i love dogs and they love me as well! I love dogs so much and they are so sweet! I am working already but on weekdays i’m available anytime after 6 and on weekends anytime! I have plenty of time to play with your pups! I do not have a fenced yard, but I do have a side porch that is fenced and I do have a crate if your pup needs to go in!

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.

About: I have been pet sitting for family members and neighbors as soon as I was big enough to hold on to the leash. I love all creatures and want to make sure that they're happy and safe. Caring for your beloved companion would make my day!! I have plenty of time to take care of pets in my weekly schedule. Also I can to create unique for routine with repeat clients. I will tend to the specific needs of each pet I care for. I will build trust with you and your fur baby to ensure everyone is happy and comfortable.

“This was our first time using Rover and Tasha was amazing! We were able to enjoy our time away and not worry about our dog. I can’t wait to use Rover/Tasha again.”

“Emily did an awesome job doing drop-in visits with Sierra. She is great with communication, came for a meet n greet first and followed instructions for the visits. Sierra absolutely loved having her come over to play fetch in the yard, she got belly rubs, fed her treats and made sure she had fresh water before she left. I would absolutely have Emily again…she did a great job all around!”

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: 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.

“Ebony did a fantastic job with my cat Roxy. She was great with her and provided wonderful care of my pet and my house while I was away. I highly recommend Ebony and will use her again!”
