“If you're looking for someone truly special to care for your furry family members, look no further than Mary Lou! I've known Mary Lou for years, and I can confidently say she's one of the kindest, most responsible, and detail-oriented people I’ve ever met. She also loves walking/running, so your dog will enjoy plenty of exercise and adventure with her. With Mary Lou, you can have total peace of mind knowing your pets are in caring and capable hands.

9. Lindsey F.
About: My husband Jeremy and I have been long-time pet lovers! We moved into our first apartment and started fostering animals without homes. When we graduated in 2014 and bought our first home, we adopted our current foster cat, Clemmie. We will welcome your four-legged friend into our home and family with open arms and provide peace of mind while you're out of town. If chosen, your fur-baby will receive the best quality care and lots of love to ease the transition to a new environment. While we do not have a fenced back yard we live near a large dog park and forest preserves with lots of trails to walk; pending the weather. We look forward to helping you make leaving town just a little bit easier! I am currently working a hybrid schedule and able to accommodate most schedules! The dog will never be left alone more then four hours at a time. We live close to our jobs and usually there is always someone home! Every pet will be treated with love! We are unable to commit to having a dog of our own until we have ample space. We do not have a fenced backyard but we provide plenty of walks and a few local dog parks we are members at.

She is dependable and has done daily home visits for a friend's dogs in the past while they were out of town and currently takes a family member's husky for daily walks or to the dog park with Sophie.”
12. Erica S.
About: I was always had furry siblings but have graduated to a cat mama. I enjoy creating personal heavens for our companions. Reliable, punctual and kind. I have a full-time job that pays the bills but I am looking for ways to feed my soul. Overnights are great as well as drop ins. I would prefer to host at client's homes as my current home does not allow dogs. Willing to board or take cats overnight. Let's make it a sleepover!

15. Natalie K.
About: I come from a family of animal lovers so I have had and have taken care of many pets. I also am an avid dog walker and love to play with my dog in the backyard. I am currently home now and so going to someone’s home to take care of the family pet is something that can easily fit my schedule. I have my dog on a schedule for her feedings and taking her outside (of course there’s flexibility). And so I will respect the pet owner’s requests for his/her pet.
16. Sydney M.
About: I’m a certified dog groomer in Illinois- looking forward to getting my cat grooming certification. Currently have experience handling breeds of all sizes and temperaments. I’ll treat your babies like my babies! I work full time but I have plenty of time in the mornings and am done with work before 6pm on most days! Would be able to dedicate my full nights and mornings to your animals ❤️ When I am in a pet parent’s home I am very mindful of the rules and routines they set for their pets. I am there to not only keep the routines-but also make the pets feel comfy, loved, and safe when their families are away

About: I will be able to provide one on one care & I have volunteered at South Suburban humane society. I love dogs. Excercise is important and love and caring for a dog is important as well. I will provide both love and excercise for your dog. My services will be done passionately & thoroughly. I understand that dogs deserve the same care as a child. They are dependent on us to make them feel loved and feed them. My home is a cage free home. Your pet will be able to make my house their home away from home. I will take exceptional care of your pet. Available 7 days a week and accept last min bookings. If I’m not physically available I have someone readily available to get your pet until I am available. I am a registered nurse so I work either 8 hours or 12 hours, but I pick the days I want to work . I have a large fenced yard. I am crate free boarding but will crate if you request. We will take 1-2 walks per day & lots of play time in the backyard.
