Dog Sitting Park Ridge

About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for dogs, cats, and even a bunny. I've had pets of all sizes and personalities and know how important it is to have someone you trust when you're away. Whether it's cuddles, playtime, or a relaxing walk, I treat every pet like my own. Let me give your furry friend the care and attention they deserve💜 I work from home most weekdays and have flexibility to pop in and spend some time with your fur babies or stay a few hours and work from your home. I can either go to your house and spend a few minutes or a few hours depending on you and your fur babies needs. Open to options

About: My daughter and I have been boarding dogs for years and love it, we really focus on one families pet at a time so we give him/her our full love and attention. We will take up to 2 dogs at a time. We love to walk and play with the dogs. We have a large fully enclosed back yard in addition to a park at the end of our block we can walk dogs around a large walking path. We text photos and funny videos of us with your pet. My daughter is off to college this year and this will assist her school fund. We love these dogs as if they were our own. WE love taking care of pets, We love staying active walking and playing with the dogs. We will not take dogs if we do not have time for them. I have an enclosed back yard that is perfect for active dogs to chase birds and have a bit of an area to run free. We do walk the dogs to our local park at the end of our block.

About: Hi! My name is Carmen, and I’m 23 years old! I have over a year of experience working at a dog training facility and currently work at a doggy daycare, where I continue to learn about dog behavior, socialization, and care. I have a genuine passion for working with dogs, and one of my favorite things is training puppies and helping them develop good habits from an early age. I’m patient, attentive, and believe in using positive reinforcement to help dogs learn. I understand that every dog has their own personality and needs, and I’ll treat your pup like my own! 🐾❤️ I currently work part-time, so my schedule offers flexibility for pet care. There is always someone home to keep your pets company and make sure they’re cared for. In my free time, I love spending time with animals, so caring for your pets is something I genuinely enjoy! 🐾 Your fur baby will have plenty of space to feel comfortable and be themselves in my apartment! I want every pet to feel safe, loved, and at home. I always prioritize their safety, follow their routines, and make sure they receive plenty of attention. I also have three cats, so I take introductions and everyone's comfort seriously.

About: I have loved and cared for animals for most of my life. Growing up surrounded by pets taught me how important patience, kindness, and attention are to their well-being. I understand that every pet has its own personality and needs, and I always strive to provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment. I enjoy spending time with animals, taking walks, playing, and making sure they feel happy and cared for while their owners are away. I look forward to meeting you and giving your pet the same love and attention I would give my own. Caring for animals is something I truly enjoy and take seriously. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their families are away. I moved to another country because of the war in my homeland, and spending time with animals has become especially meaningful to me, as I deeply miss the connection I had with them before. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment. I follow each pet’s routine, make sure they get plenty of exercise, playtime, and affection, and I always prioritize their safety and well-being. 😀

“Prompt and great fit during our meet & greet!”

“Tiffany was able to take on a last minute requests after an emergency medical situation with our previous sitter. Great communication - making sure we are updated on our cat’e welfare and care. I’m glad we gave her a try - and so should you.”

About: I’ve always loved dogs and genuinely enjoy caring for them. I had a dog back in my home country and took care of him every day until I had to leave the country. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I’ll make sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I treat every dog like family and pay close attention to their individual needs, routines, and personality. My flexible schedule allows me to dedicate quality time and attention to your pet. I am committed to maintaining your dog’s normal routine and ensuring they receive plenty of exercise, affection, and companionship throughout the day. Your dog’s safety and happiness come first. I provide a calm, clean, and loving environment and carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, walks, and routines. I believe communication is key, so I will keep you updated with messages and pictures. My goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable, secure, and cared for every step of the way.

About: I’ve been taking care of my own dog, a senior Shih Tzu/Poodle mix, for the past 15 years. I’ve also dog-sat for family and friends over the past 5 years, giving me experience with small, medium and large sized dogs. My own dog is a bit reactive, so I’m also familiar with caring for reactive dogs and being mindful of their individual needs. I recently started fostering a senior dog as well, which has given me even more hands-on experience caring for older pups. I’m excited to provide your dog with the same patience, care, and attention I give my own! I currently have a pretty flexible schedule so I have great availability for your pup while you work or take care of other responsibilities! I’m able to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your dog throughout the day and can be flexible with different routines and care needs. I’m also happy to accommodate last-minute bookings when my schedule allows. I’ll do my best to keep your pup’s usual routine consistent, including walks, meals, potty breaks, play time, and plenty of love and attention while you’re away! I would love to take your pups on walks, enjoy playtime, or spend some outdoor time with them, as I also love being outside and going on walks! I’d also love to get to know your pets and their individual personalities so I can help them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re in my care. I’ll make sure to follow your instructions and their usual routines as closely as possible, so they can feel happy and at ease in their own home.

About: Both of my parents are veterinarians, so I’ve grown up around animals all my life! I have basic animal care skills (walks, feeding, playing) and the extra ones too (animal body language, toxic vs nontoxic foods/materials, giving medication)! I have two cats myself, and have taken care of family and friends’ dogs for years. I’m currently working part time and have a flexible schedule, which means I have plenty of time to play with and visit your pets! I prioritize safety for your pet! I understand that I will be someone unfamiliar coming to the home, and will make sure to let your pet lead the way in our interactions.

About: With years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all shapes and sizes, I provide reliable, compassionate, and personalized pet care. From daily walks to overnight stays! Pet care is an integral part of my daily routine. Having an 11 month old golden, I schedule my days around walks, feedings, and playtime. I hope to extend these services to your furry friend! I treat every pet like family—ensuring their safety, comfort, and happiness every step of the way. With every service provided, I aim to provide a healthy, fulfilling experience for them.

About: I’ve spent some time in high school training service dogs for injured war vets! I also have worked in quite a few doggy day cares! I grew up with dogs and have loved them since infancy! I’m currently working a pretty flexible job allowing me more time to ensure your loved fur babies can be properly taken care of! I have a pretty open weekly routine so I have so much time to put towards pet care! I have 1 dog and 2 cats I care for them by making sure all they’re needs are met between both my cats one’s high energy one’s chill I make sure my high energy girl is played with and stimulated mentally every day, same for my dog we go on long walks twice a day!

About: I have always had dogs growing up and I currently have my own dog who is 2 years old. I love caring for my pets, spending time with them, and seeing them happy! I recently just graduated college and am not working because I am studying to take my exam to be licensed as a nurse! I have plenty of free time and want to fill some of that time spending it with your cute dog(s)! I have a fenced-in yard that my dogs love running around in. I also make sure to take my own dog out for walks early in the morning or later at night so she does not overheat in this heat.

“Christine was great. She took time to get to know the dogs and went above and beyond to give them extra loving and care for our first time away from them. I will ask for her again every time!!”

About: I’ve always had a deep love for animals. Their loyalty, companionship, and energy make them so special, and they deserve the same care and kindness in return. I’ve been around animals my whole life and have hands on experience raising and caring for both dogs and cats. What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give to every pet. I treat them like my own and take the time to understand their personality and needs. I’m very patient and comfortable with dogs and cats of all ages, from playful puppies to senior dogs who may need a slower and gentler approach. I also have experience with cats and understand that every pet has their own unique personality and comfort level. Whether your dog or cat loves to be active and go on walks or prefers to stay home and relax, I’m happy to match their energy and make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. I also like to keep owners updated with messages and the occasional cute photo so you can feel at ease while you’re away:) I have a 7 year old Boxer who lives with me. She’s very friendly, loves other dogs, and would be happy to have some company. I’m easy to get along with, responsible, and always do my best to make sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for. If there’s anything specific your pet needs, I’ll always try my best to accommodate. I’d love to be a great match for your furry friend! A little bit about me! I live in the Albany Park area and have my own reliable transportation, so I’m dependable and able to get to your pet when needed. I work freelance, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to plan my day around your pet’s routine. Whether it’s walks, drop-ins, longer stays, or even last-minute help, I’m able to adjust my availability to make sure your pet gets the attention, care, and consistency they need. Whether I’m caring for your pet during walks, drop-ins, or overnight stays, their safety and comfort are always my priority. I politely ask that all clients have a fully completed and updated profile with recent photos of their pets, information about their personality, routine, behavior, and any special needs, as well as some information about themselves. This helps me feel more comfortable and confident accepting a booking and gives me a better understanding of you and your pet beforehand. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine and any instructions you provide as closely as possible, whether that’s feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, or just keeping them company. My goal is to make sure your pet feels happy, safe, and comfortable in their own home while you’re away.

About: I have primarily taken care of my pets, family pets, and friends pets. Many people rely on me to walk and feed their pets. I have friends request me specifically to look after their pets when they are out of the house either for the day or a long vacation. I work full time Monday-Friday but I am remote on Monday & Friday. Tuesday-Thursday I am available 6pm or later. Saturday I am available anytime. I am very careful and aware of my surroundings. I will ensure your pet is comfortable and safe. Before I take your pet for a walk or drop in for a visit we can ensure your pet feels comfortable with me.

“Sass did an excellent job taking care of our 2 cats! She was able to get 3 meds into our cat with her creative food mixtures! We recommend her highly and will use her again!”

About: We have a large house with a very large backyard and miss having a dog. We have 2 little ones and I’m home working remote all the time. Dogs love to play and run around in our yard. I sit for many repeat clients that are not on the rover platform but happy to provide additional recommendations as needed. I’m home minus kids school drops and picks so pups come with or left alone a max of 30 mins. I’m also one to take a pup with me everywhere as long as I don’t plan to be out of the car for more then 5 mins. We have a large backyard semi fenced in and trees all along. In the house we have kids so baby proofed. I'm happy to follow your personal house restrictions but as a previous dog owner we had little to no restriction for our dog as he was allowed to roam as he would like.

About: I’ve always had dogs in my family while growing up. We’re very much dog people. I’ve helped neighbors, friends, and families with watching/walking their pets. I currently work a hybrid 8 am - 4 pm schedule in Northbrook, IL. I live in the northern part of the city with access to a car and public transit. I have open availability on weekend days. I have availability in my schedule for evenings on weekdays. On these days I will be available starting at 5pm. I can be very flexible if needed! So please reach out if there is a day that I may look unavailable, I may be able to help you out! I would love to meet your fur-babies <3 I will always use a harness/leash while walking dogs, I feel comfortable letting them loose in a controlled and fenced area. Will follow any requirements/requests for your dog.

About: Labra-THOR! Haha. Jokes aside, hello! My name is Megan and I am so excited to spend time with your pup! I have had pets since I was 4 years old so I have plenty of experience handling dogs, cats, and even rabbits! As your dog’s temporary caretaker, I will make sure to give an ample amount of love and attention to your magnificent canine (or feline). Every pet deserves to be played with as often as possible, and I am so glad I can fill in for you while you’re busy! I have worked with large dogs, for example I used to dog sit for my friend’s pit bull, so I have no concern working with larger pets; it just means there is more to love! I promise I will love on and care for your pet as much as I do my own.

“Communicated well and was timely!”
