“Sharett was great with my little terrier Jazz. Normally she doesn’t warm up to people right away but she did to Sharett. She was also very flexible and understanding of my crazy work schedule and last minute changes. Sherrett will keep you informed and updated on your pet and you can tell she has a genuine passion for animals. I would definitely recommend her.”

About: I have up to a eight years of experience taking care of animals. The most known being cats, dogs, birds, and some farmlife. I also have experience in grooming regarding bathing dogs and cats. This is something I am currently working toward furthering my career in. I am currently unemployed, although I am working on getting a job. I care for two cats at home full time as well as the occasional care of my roommate's pet skink. I have a 7 year old and an 8 month old who is sometimes a full-time job himself. I currently live in an apartment so I do not offer care at my home due to my lease not allowing it. However, within the home of my client I try to keep a common eye on the animals, making sure they are fed, have water, and if required the litterbox/bathroom is done whenever they need it.

About: I think the best way to connect with pets is to give them as much time and love as possible. I like to figure out what each dog needs out of the walk. Some dogs don’t need a really log walk all the time. And some dogs need to build up how long they can go. Let me figure out what your dog needs exactly. I also like to take them to doggy parks to see other dogs. If they don’t like it all good we can just play with there favorite toys and cuddle. Also when staying the night they will have a good amount of space. I live in and apartment which I know isn’t the most spacious but most of the day we would be out .

About: I’ve always been the one my family goes to train our pets ever since we got our first dog; and it’s been my favorite job ever since! I love learning about different breeds but most importantly how to speak their language. From puppies to elderly cats, I’m happy to care for your fur babies. I’m a recent Masters student at UChicago and have full availability! From mornings to overnight stays, I’m happy to be there for a walk or drop in. My own pups thrive on routine but it’s understandable if yours enjoy that nonchalant schedule. I do think play time, mental stimulation, and a local sniffari is the best way for a good nights sleep. On our walks, I’ll try to make the most of our time together by seeing what environments they feel most safe in.

About: I’ve taken care of multiple dogs of varying ages and have always enjoyed it immensely. I no longer have a dog of my own but I would love to make friends with yours. I am working 3 days per week (not a set schedule) and have enough time to spend with some lovely dogs. My schedule changes week to week but I am quite flexible and hopeful we can find a good agreement for dog sitting/walking. My apartment is clean and spacious and perfect for a small/medium dog to stay at and play. I do not own a crate but also would prefer if your dog is properly trained and can tolerate being in open space.

About: Growing up with and caring for my own dog has taught me how important patience, consistency, and attention are when it comes to pets. I’m very attentive to a dog’s behavior, energy levels, and comfort, and I always make sure they feel safe, cared for, and loved. I also have experience with basic grooming, keeping routines consistent, and giving pets calm, gentle care based on their individual needs and personality. I'm currently looking fo a Pet care fits well into my daily and weekly routine because I’m someone who enjoys staying active, organized, and consistent. While I’m currently looking for a part-time summer job, pet sitting and care is something that also works well with my schedule long-term because it gives me flexibility once I start school again. I’m able to balance responsibilities well, and I enjoy spending time with animals as part of my routine rather than seeing it as just work. job for the summer. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I make sure they are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of attention, playtime, walks if needed, and a clean environment. I’m very attentive to a pet’s behavior and comfort level, and I always try to create a calm, safe, and loving atmosphere while respecting the owner’s instructions and home. I also make sure to give updates so owners feel reassured while they’re away.
