“I want to give Jacee 6 stars for taking such great care of Damien while I was out of touch on an Island with no WiFi for a week. She also sent me photos and daily reports which barely came through but did just enough to reassure me. Now she’s all he talks about! Lol. Thanks again Jacee!”

“Samantha did a wonderful job dropping in to check on my dog when my usual help was not available. My dog was a little wary at fist but Samantha was great and made her feel comfortable. If I need services in the future for my dog, I will definitely reach out to see if she's available.”

About: I have been around dogs my entire life since I was 3 years old. My experience includes dogs of all ages, from young puppies to senior dogs up to 14 years old. Growing up with dogs has taught me how to understand their different personalities, needs, and routines. I regularly care for my family's dogs whenever my parents are out of town, handling daily walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and providing companionship. In addition, I have cared for dogs and other pets for family members and friends while they travel. I take pride in being dependable, attentive, and making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. What sets me apart is my lifelong experience with dogs, my reliability, and the genuine care I provide to every animal I look after. I treat every pet as if they were my own and work hard to maintain their normal routine so they feel happy and secure. As a Physical Therapy student, my weekdays can be busy with classes and studying, but caring for animals remains an important part of my daily routine. Every day, I make sure my pets are fed before I leave for school and again when I return home. I also stay on top of responsibilities such as cleaning the litter box and making sure all of my animals are comfortable and well cared for. My weekends are much more flexible, allowing me to dedicate additional time and attention to pet care. Because I balance a demanding academic schedule with caring for my own pets, I am organized, responsible, and committed to maintaining consistent routines. Pet owners can trust that their animals will receive dependable care, attention, and affection while they are away. When caring for pets in a client's home, my top priorities are safety, trust, and maintaining a comfortable environment for the pet. I understand that pets feel most secure when they can stay in their normal routine, so I make every effort to follow the owner's instructions regarding feeding schedules, walks, medications, playtime, and any special needs. For dog walks, I will ensure dogs are securely leashed, remain aware of our surroundings, and provide exercise appropriate for their age and energy level. During drop-in visits, I will make sure pets have fresh food and water, clean up after them as needed, and spend quality time giving them attention and companionship. I treat every home with respect and every pet as if they were my own. I am dependable, attentive to details, and committed to keeping owners updated so they can feel confident that their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for while they are away.

“Odalys has been great with my nervous pup! She was patient and knew exactly how to make him comfortable. I’m at ease knowing he’s well cared for while I’m away at work.”

About: 🐾 About us Certified Dog Trainer (Animal Behavior College – Positive Reinforcement Based Training) I’ve been caring for dogs since I was a kid, and what started as helping family and friends turned into a true passion and profession. My wife and I both work from home, which means your dog receives consistent supervision, structure, and plenty of attention throughout the day. 📍 Located 10 minutes from O’Hare — perfect for travelers. 🕒 Drop-Off & Pick-Up Hours Monday: 9:00 AM – 9:00 PM Tuesday: 9:00 AM – 9:00 PM Wednesday: 9:00 AM – 9:00 PM Thursday: 9:00 AM – 9:00 PM Friday: 9:00 AM – 9:00 PM Saturday: 9:00 AM – 9:00 PM Sunday: 12:30 PM – 9:00 PM Please select a specific 30-minute drop-off and pick-up window when booking. I ask that you arrive within that window so we can keep transitions smooth, organized, and stress-free for everyone. If anything changes, just communicate as early as possible — I completely understand that travel plans can shift. 🏡 Our Home & Philosophy We have a fully fenced yard and a dog-friendly home designed with safety in mind. Playtime is always supervised, and dogs only interact if we’re 100% confident they get along. It’s completely okay if your dog prefers people over other dogs — we respect every dog’s personality. Each dog enjoys free roaming, walks, and one-on-one interaction with us — they’re treated like part of the home, not just part of a group. 📋 Requirements Dogs must be crate trained and comfortable resting in a crate when needed. They must also be up to date on all required vaccinations to ensure the health and safety of every dog in our care. These standards help us maintain a calm, structured, and safe environment for everyone. 📸 Updates You’ll receive daily updates with photos so you can relax knowing your best friend is in great hands. 🐾 Our biggest priorities are ❤️ Love, 🛡 Safety, 🤝 Trust, and 🏡 Comfort. Our number one rule: no dog is ever put in a position where they feel they have to defend themselves.

“Loren took such good care of our chows. She connected very quickly with their different sensibilities, and provided each the individual attention they needed during each drop-in visit. We so appreciate her help and would highly recommend her for anyone needing someone to care for their pups!”

About: My family has rescued animals my whole life, and I have worked with all kinds of animals professionally since my very first job at a dog groomer. Since then, I've spent most of my time working at emergency animal vets, with foster dogs, and at doggie daycare! I love working with all species of animals and will treat yours just like my own! I'm here to make sure your pets feel happy, loved, and safe while you're away. I currently have a pretty open schedule and am looking to care for pets full time. I can easily do late nights and early mornings! When I stay in your home, I stick closely to your pet's normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure.

About: **PLEASE NOTE: I love exploring new areas and am happy to travel farther for overnight and house-sitting bookings. For stays located more than 30 miles away from my home, a small travel adjustment may apply depending on distance and length of stay.** INTRO: I’ve worked with all kinds of dogs through daily walks, drop-ins, and longer stays — from high-energy breeds to shy or anxious pups who need a softer approach. I’m very attentive to details, routines, and behavior changes, and I always make sure each dog feels safe and understood. My weekly routine is very flexible, which makes pet care easy to build around. I split my time between volunteer work, errands, and studying at the library, and I schedule those things around my pet visits. Because of that flexibility, I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening walks. When I’m doing dog-sitting, I structure my day around the dog’s routine — feeding, bathroom breaks, playtime, and whatever helps them feel comfortable. I’m used to adjusting my schedule so pets get the consistency and care they’re used to. Their routine becomes my routine. I follow the pet’s routine exactly as the owner lays it out. Every dog is different, so I match their needs — feeding schedule, walk times, bathroom breaks, and any special instructions. I keep the home clean, make sure doors and crates are secured, and always double-check leashes, harnesses, and gates before we go out. I pay close attention to behavior and energy levels, especially with anxious dogs or seniors, and I give them plenty of reassurance and calm company. I send updates and photos during each visit so owners feel confident and connected while they’re away. My goal is to make the pet feel safe in their own space and keep everything running smoothly until their family comes home.
