If you love your pets, you’ll love Coretta! The amount of love she gave to my cats seems like she treated them as her own! She was very informative and gave very detailed follow ups after each visit! I don’t think anyone would disagree that she’s VERY good at what she does. We will be looking for her every time we need a sitter! Thank you again Coretta and we hope to see you again!

Anyah spent three days looking after our very shy cats and she took their standoffish nature in stride. She was communicative, organized, friendly, and punctual. Most importantly, she helped us out when we really needed a reliable pet sitter, and was unbelievable accommodating of our cats’ many quirks. We will absolutely be calling her first from now on.

T’Wanna was amazing! She went above and beyond to make sure that my cat had plenty of company and lots of pets and cuddles. She communicated well with me each step of the way letting me know how much food he had eaten, she replenished the water in the litter and let me know how he was doing overall. It meant so much that she spent so much genuine time making sure that my cat was comfortable and well cared for during her drop in. I would definitely recommend her and will be booking her again

About: I grew up in a multi pet home and learned to walk, train and groom pets from a young age. I cared for the last family dog through her medically tedious senior years. Through college I pet sat and walked for friends and family. For 2 years I worked for a veterinary clinic, although my job was marketing I often was asked to assist with holding and monitoring patients. When I became a pet owner I adopted puppies raising them through potty and crate training. I am proud to say they continue to be healthy and happy. Now we foster and pet sit dogs of all ages and sizes because of the dog friendly environment we’ve created at home. My success in pet lies with gaining the pets trust. I approach them slowly and go at their pace, sitting and waiting on the ground if necessary. I am pet sitting and walking full time so I have plenty of time to dedicate to my clients! Dogs are typically walked and out between 7am and 9pm. I have a fully fenced yard with ample room for running and playing. There are four resident dogs who are friendly and used to guests. We can crate your pup or have them sleep in a bed or in bed with me. Water is available at all times through a 2 gallon water dispenser.

About: I’ve always had a passion for animals and treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m currently studying to become a Veterinary Assistant, which has helped me learn more about animal behavior, health, and proper care. I have experience caring for cats and dogs with different personalities and understand the importance of keeping pets comfortable, safe, and on their normal routine. I’ll provide plenty of updates, photos, and communication so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is to make sure your pet feels loved and cared for until you return. I work during the day on weekdays, so I’m available for morning visits before 8:30 a.m. and evening visits after 6:00 p.m. (sometimes 7:00 p.m., depending on my schedule). I’m also available l weekends and always make sure pets receive consistent care, attention, and plenty of love while you’re away. I understand that every pet has their own routine, and I always do my best to follow your instructions carefully. I’ll make sure your pet has fresh food and water, plenty of attention, exercise if needed, and a safe, clean environment. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you know your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away. As a Veterinary Assistant student, I pay close attention to animal behavior and well-being and will let you know if I notice anything concerning.

About: I have always cared for the cats of my neighbors in Chicago, let alone other cats. Since my young adult years, I always have had cats and have been learning how to care for them from personal experience, reading online, and visiting vets as well as volunteering at shelters in Chicago over the years or supporting fundraisers! I am available nowadays to care for your pet at my home for a short period of time. Or I could visit your home! I am aware of territory adjustments and super careful about health issues. I have experience working with children and understand how important it is to supervise and engage with pets all the time! Also, it is important to pay attention to them in terms of health and behavior and provide a healthy routine of meals and clean litter boxes, among other things.
