“Coleen is prompt, detailed in their reports, and was able to step in with a somewhat last-minute request. We appreciate all the pictures, it gives us peace of mind, even for a short visit! Will definitely book with Coleen again when available!!”

“Annabel is fantastic! She took great care of my furball and I am grateful for the nice notes and pics while I was gone. It was nice to come home see a happy kitty, and know he was cuddled and had playtime everyday too. Highly recommend!”

“It is very clear that Lauren has a great passion for looking after animals. I had no doubt that they would take great care of our cat. Lauren was super accommodative of our last minute booking. I would most definitely recommend!”

“Great job caring for 7 cats, it’s always complicated as the care is not the same for every one of them but Sheena was able to manage them all.”

Evan M.

“Jackie did a great job watching our cats while we were out of town. She was easy to communicate with and left our place clean. Definitely would use her again!”

Courtney C.

“This is our second time having Amanda care for our cats Puma and Lynx. She’s so reliable, kind, careful, prompt and professional. I always feel sad when I’m away from my kitties on a trip but knowing that they’ll be in Amanda’s care puts my worries at ease. Also my cats are shy but she manages to have them sneak by for a photo and maybe some pets”

Fredricka T.

“Chase was great with my two dogs. He was there promptly for my requested drop-ins and got my dogs playing and burning off energy. I would definitely use Chase again.”

About: Hi! I’m Sasha — a passionate animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. I’ve worked in doggy daycares as a handler, bather, and walker, and I’m Pet CPR & First Aid Certified so your pup’s safety and comfort always come first. I work from home as a designer, which means your dog will rarely be left alone and will receive plenty of attention, supervision, playtime, and cuddles throughout the day. I also have a fenced yard and a cozy, dog-friendly home filled with beds, toys, and space to relax. I have a small dog named Nacho who is my sidekick and keeps me on a consistent routine with regular potty breaks, outdoor time, and play sessions throughout the day. Dogs staying with me are treated like family — they’ll have access to water, comfy spaces to rest, toys, and lots of love. I’m happy to accommodate cuddle bugs too — if your pup enjoys sleeping near people, they’ll fit right in here. My goal is to create a safe, calm, and loving environment where your dog feels comfortable while you’re away. 🐾 I have 1 small dog that is by my side 24/7 during the week. Caring for your pet will fit into my routine nicely. I work as a designer and always home during the week. I usually let my boy Nacho out to play in the morning at 7am, 8am, 11am, 2pm, and 4pm, 6pm and 9:15pm. I usually keep the dogs with me in my area while I work. They have access water, food, beds and toys. I have a bunch of doggy beds and toys 🧸 all around the house. I also don’t mind the dogs sleeping in bed with me. I love to snuggle with the fur babies.

“Faye was great! She stopped by to meet my shy cats ahead of time and they came right up to her for pets. She gave one of them transdermal medication each visit without any issue. I will definitely reach out to her again next time I travel.”

About: Caring for dogs is something I’ve enjoyed doing for as long as I can remember. I grew up around animals in Puerto Rico and earned a Bachelor’s degree in Animal Science with a companion animals care certificate, giving me both hands-on experience and formal knowledge in companion animal care. I offer boarding, house sitting, drop-in visits, dog walking, and doggy day care for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or prefers a slower pace, I tailor my care to fit their needs and routine. I’m also comfortable with senior dog care, medications, and basic training reinforcement. Since I work from home full-time, pets receive plenty of supervision, attention, and companionship throughout the day. My goal is always to make dogs feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while giving owners peace of mind while they’re away. I also live with My best friend and roommate, Erica, who is also trained and able to care for your pup. So, if you board with us, you can rest assure your pet will have the best care 24/7! I work from home full-time, so pet care naturally fits into my daily routine. I’m home with the pet throughout the day and can provide consistent supervision, attention, walks, feeding, and playtime. Since I live close to Portage Park, I’m also able to give dogs plenty of physical exercise and mental stimulation through walks, outdoor time, and their favorite games. Whether that’s fetch, tug-of-war, or just exploring the park, my top priority is to make them happy. On the rare occasions I do step out, my roommate is home and helps ensure your pet is never left alone. In caring for pets, my approach is rooted in both professionalism and personalized attention. Depending on the service offered, the care provided may vary. However, one constant remains: meticulous adherence to instructions and a commitment to the well-being of every furry friend entrusted to my care. I take a lot of pride in my ability to follow instructions diligently, ensuring that your pet receives tailored care according to your explicit preferences. Whether it's feeding schedules, medication administration, or specific exercise routines, I prioritize clear communication and meticulous execution. Your pet's comfort, safety, and happiness are my utmost priorities.

About: If you’re looking to book for Fourth of July, I’ll be going up to Beaver Lake, WI to hang with dear friends and their crew of dogs, cats and goats :) If that sounds like an enrichment opportunity for your dog, I’d love to have him/her join me! I've had dogs since I was born! Ranging from all-American hunting breeds to banged-up mutts, I love them all. That said, I have a very soft spot for the little guys who need a little extra love and patience. Fun fact: when I was in 5th grade for a school project I went through the exercise of opening up a dog daycare business. I could not wait to take care of all the dogs that were going to come my way! According to my 5th-grade self, two locations was going to cost me $1 million :) I'm currently a restaurant consultant and I work from home but have recently also taken some 8 hr shifts away from the house a few days per week. If your dog can handle two walks per day and has moderate to low energy levels, my home might be a fit. I live minutes from multiple parks, where I love to play pickleball and also throw the ball with my sister's golden retriever! I’ve just moved from an apartment to a house. There is a small fenced yard, and neighborhood sidewalks for walking. The house is covered in area rugs, and I have a set of sturdy steps for getting onto the bed or sofa. There are lots of windows and sunny spots for your little guy to curl up and enjoy. If I'm at your house, I'll try to maintain the rhythms and routines your pet is used to and give them lots of sweet words, scratches and attention.

About: I’ve cared for both big and small dogs during multiple pet-sitting stays, making sure they get plenty of walks, meals, and attention while their owners are away. I know every dog has their own personality and needs, and I’m happy to provide reliable, thoughtful care to keep them happy and comfortable. Whether your pup needs a walk, overnight care, or just some extra attention, I’m here to help! I’m available for full time pet sitting in your home, can give walks twice a day and potty breaks in the yard if you have one! I do not offer boarding at this time, but I am happy to care for pets in their own home. I follow the owner’s instructions closely to ensure each dog’s routine is maintained, whether that includes feeding schedules, walk times, playtime, or any special care needs. My goal is to provide a comfortable and stress-free experience for both the pet and the owner while they’re away.

“You couldn’t trust anyone but Barbara. I had her sitting the second time and the dogs just loves her. She loves them as well.”
