“Tonisa was an awesome sitter for Koda. This was Koda’s first time being away from us for such a long period of time so i was apprehensive but after meeting Tonisa I felt at ease. During Koda’s stay, Tonisa sent frequent pictures and updates. I highly recommend!”

“Bola did a great job with Hendricks. She is very pleasant. He was comfortable and had no issues with the stay…. will definitely book again. I’m working with her on training my other dog as well. Thank you!”


“Everything went according to plan. My Little Buddy seems to have enjoyed his stay. Beverly seems like a fine dog sitter I would use her services again without question,”

“I can’t say enough great things about Kamiah! She took such amazing care of my dog, Autumn, and made the whole experience stress free for both of us. Autumn absolutely loves her, and it was clear from the start that Kamiah treats her like family. She kept me updated throughout Autumn’s entire stay with plenty of pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was so reassuring to see how happy and comfortable Autumn was in her care. I highly recommend Kamiah to anyone looking for someone reliable, loving, and attentive to care for their fur babies. She’s truly the best!”

“Shani was the best choice for our fur baby! I was worried about leaving our baby, Stone, for so long, but Shani made me feel comfortable. She sent me pictures and communicated with me continuously throughout the stay. I could see Stone opening up and enjoying himself. I’m so grateful for her loving care and warmth. Shani is definitely like extended family now, and Stone won’t be staying anywhere else. If you care about your fur baby and want them to be well-loved, book with Shani.”

“T’wanna has been taking care of my two cats in her home for a month now while my place is under renovation,and they are doing really well. Because they were going to be there for so long I took all of their cat toys and their cat tree and they’re scratching post and their litter boxes over to her place so they have all the comforts of their own home.She sends me updates and photos and videos. I have been able to visit them a few times. T’wanna has been flexible with my requests to come see my babies. She also takes pictures and photos of me with them when I’m visiting and send them to me. As much as I miss them, I am so grateful that they have someone caring to look after them.”


“Bernie’s hosts were wonderful, especially in the unflustered and caring way they dealt with a transportation crisis my wife and I had. They made me feel like they would have happily made extra room in their family for another week as cooly as they did for an extra day. Bernie is an untroubled, self-confident old girl who enjoys human and canine company, and this was a great environment for her with very nice dog-loving people.”


“The Sitter was great and kept us updated on Misty’s stay through correspondence and pictures. Misty got along well with other pets in the home and truly enjoyed herself. We will definitely use Dwight again.”

“Cassandra took great care of my dog Ace during his 4-day stay. I can tell he had a good time hanging out with her dog, Chewy. Cassandra was a pleasure to work with and I hope to use her services again for future boarding.”

“I am very particular about who I let be around my fur babies so finding Dominique was heaven sent! She’s amazing and does well with handling both of my pits who I know have tons of energy! I appreciate her a lot!”

“Mercedes and her family were absolutely amazing with our dog Bane. I got many pictures while away; all of him being loved. We joked that we might have to kidnap our own dog back because they loved him so much. I’ll definitely be booking with Mercedes again.”

“Christine was friendly and professional in her care for my dog Woody. She sent pics everyday which I appreciated and said how he was doing. She even washed his bedding when he was leaving. I will book again in the future because of her excellent care as she knew how to care for any problems. Thank you Christine”

About: I've been surrounded by animals my whole life, and I wouldn't have it any other way. At home in Colombia, my house was full of paws: four cats, a shepherd dog, and a beagle before that. I've also pet sat for friends' dogs, including a Yorkie and a Cocker Spaniel. I have a special patience for puppies: the training, the energy, the chaos; I genuinely love it. And since I'm not working right now, your pet gets my full attention, all day long. No rushing home after a shift, just 100% focused, loving care. I live in Hyde Park, right in front of Harold Washington Park, and just minutes from Jackson Park, so long walks and outdoor playtime are always on the menu! I considered studying veterinary but realized I simply can't stand seeing animals suffer, which tells you everything about how much I care. My goal is simple: to make your pet feel as loved as mine do back home. Since I'm currently not working, pet care fits perfectly and naturally into my entire day. I wake up late morning, which means lazy morning cuddles are always on the table, perfect for cats or calm dogs who love a slow start to the day. From there, my day is completely flexible and centered around the pet's routine, whether that's feeding, litter care, playtime at home, or heading out for a walk to Harold Washington Park or Jackson Park, both just minutes from my place. I'm also available for overnight stays, so pets never have to spend the night alone or anxious in an unfamiliar space. At my home in Hyde Park: My apartment is a calm and loving space, no other pets, so your furry friend gets all the attention. I'm home all day, which means no long lonely hours. For cats, I make sure to provide a comfortable, stress-free environment, respecting their need for space and routine. For dogs, living right in front of Harold Washington Park and minutes from Jackson Park means fresh air and walks are always just steps away. I also offer overnight stays, so pets can settle in and feel truly at home. At your home: I understand that many pets, especially cats, feel most comfortable in their own space. When visiting your home, I follow your pet's established routine as closely as possible, feeding schedules, litter care, favorite toys, nap spots. I don't just stop by quickly, I stay long enough for real playtime and genuine connection. In both cases: I treat every pet like my own. Growing up with cats, dogs, and everything in between taught me to read animal behavior, respect their boundaries, and give them the kind of love and patience they deserve. And since my own two cats are waiting for me back in Colombia, I know exactly what it feels like to trust someone with the animals you love most. 🐾❤️

“We were so lucky to find Ebonee for an extended stay for our dog London. She was incredibly thorough and flexible - we had an intro zoom call (which I LOVED), and she kept us updated with pictures and videos and was understanding of our flight issues returning home. London had a blast and came back to us in great spirits. Thanks for your care, Ebonee!”

“Daphnay was wonderful. I was really scared to leave my baby with a stranger and Daphnay put me at ease. I highly recommend her and will be using her again in the future.”

“My dog Buddy had the best of time with Janet. I would highly recommend Janet. Buddy was almost sad returning home. I received pictures during the stay which I really loved. Thank you Janet for making my dog feel at home and loved!”


“Ashley was great! Super fast response to messages. She sent us updates and Waski pictures often. Waski had a great time playing at parks, walking, and lounging on the deck.”

“Iman was a great match for my frenchie Pinky with IVDD. She communicated well with my sister and I. 10/10 Definitely recommend!! She’s the best I am truly blessed to have come across her profile! 🐾”

If you want complete peace of mind, book Twanna W. immediately! She recently cared for my senior golden retriever pit mix, H'Raka, for four days and treated him like royalty. She made sure he got plenty of exercise, kept me updated with photos and videos, and followed through with my request and bought him his own bed to make sure he was comfortable. H'Raka loved romping with her two boys and came home incredibly happy. Twanna’s generosity and attentiveness are unmatched. I am so grateful for her and will definitely use her services again!

I was nervous to board my dog but Brandon provided a lot of comfort. He responded to my messages as well as sent me videos with updates. The drop off and pickup service was easy. He was flexible, great customer service, and took great care of dash! Thanks, Brandon!

We couldn't have asked for a better sitter for our Nina! Agustina took care of her for 10 days, and from the very first moment, it was clear that Nina was in the most loving and capable hands. Agustina sent us regular updates with photos and videos, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. When we picked Nina up, she was happy, well-fed, and clearly had the time of her life. You can tell Agustina genuinely loves animals. We will absolutely be booking with her again. Thank you so much, Agustina!

Elizabeth is great! Bleu clearly had a wonderful time. She can struggle with anxiety and want feeling great but Elizabeth managed all of that and helped make bleu comfortable. I especially appreciated Elizabeth’s love and knowledge of pits which helped me to know she was with someone who understood her and would take great care of her.

I had a great experience with this person taking care of my dog. They are a very kind and responsible person, and they truly care about animals. They kept me updated the whole time with messages and photos, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. My dog was well taken care of and happy. I would definitely trust them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable dog sitter.
