About: I bring hands-on experience and genuine love for animals into every pet-sitting job. I have two dogs of my own (ages 7 and 4) whom I trained myself from puppyhood—including potty training by 6 months! I groom them myself regularly, take them on daily walks, and have experience administering medications for allergies, ear infections, preventative care, and post-procedure care. Whether your pet needs structured training support, gentle senior care, or just someone who truly understands their needs and routines, I'm here to offer reliable, compassionate service. Your pets will be treated like family—because that’s exactly how I treat my own. As a medical student who primarily studies from home, I have a very flexible and consistent schedule. Outside of 2-3 hours a day when I’m on campus, I’m home and fully available to care for pets. This allows me to give them plenty of attention, regular walks, playtime, and any needed care throughout the day. Having a structured but home-based routine makes it easy for me to prioritize your pet’s needs and keep them happy, healthy, and comfortable while you're away. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s, my approach is all about providing a safe, loving, and low-stress environment that mirrors their usual routine as closely as possible. In my home, pets have a calm, pet-friendly space where they can relax, play, and enjoy plenty of attention. I do daily walks, structured feeding times, and lots of one-on-one interaction. If I’m caring for pets in their own home, I make it a priority to maintain their normal schedule—walks, meals, playtime, and any special instructions—so they feel secure and comfortable in their familiar surroundings. I’m also experienced with medication administration and basic grooming, and I keep pet parents updated regularly with messages and photos so they can feel at ease while they’re away.

“We left our 7 month old for a day while we hit the lakefront, and he seemed to have loved his stay! Nakeisha sent us updates throughout the day, with photos, which was a great way for us to still feel connected while away :)”

About: With over two decades of dedicated experience in pet care, I have nurtured and cherished dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to wise elderly companions. My profound joy in this journey stems from the deep connections formed with these furry friends. Having worked with a diverse array of breeds, I've honed my understanding of their unique needs and temperaments. In addition, my expertise extends to puppy training, where patience and consistency are key. Caring for dogs isn't just a passion; it's a lifelong commitment that brings immense fulfillment. I work a full time remote schedule. I am at home Mondays and Fridays. Im off on the weekends. So I have plenty of time to play and go on walks! I have a small yorkie that can keep your baby company and I have a baby gate for safe separation if needed. I can also crate your baby if that is what you prefer. Your pets can sleep in the room with me on there beds or wherever makes them most comfortable

“Excellent provider. My fur baby LOVES to go to daycare. He whines and tugs at his carrier as his way of communicating to me that he wants to go to daycare. I have been using Dwight's services for a few years and I cannot express in words how excellent he is. I have no worries when I leave my fur baby with him because I know he is being well cared for. He gets 5 stars from me and more if that was an option!!!”

About: Hello, my name is Barbara :) I’ve had pets my entire life. I grew up around dogs, big and small; as well as having a cat, a hamster, and a bunny at different points in time. Currently, I don’t have a pet of my own, but I’ve become quite experienced in pet-sitting over the last few years! Rest assured, I’m a good communicator and will prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort ❤️ I work from home Monday-Friday and have a weekend job as well, but if I’m pet-sitting I won’t be away for more than 8 hours at a time. I love taking walks for my own well-being and it’s lovely to have a buddy to come along with me :) Your pet will get a morning, afternoon, and before-bed walk with me. I live in beautiful Hyde Park, quite close to Promontory Point. My apartment is spacious, tidy, and gets a good amount of sunlight - all things important for living beings! I prefer not to crate, unless requested by owner. Pets are welcome on furniture! There’s a small park right outside my building and so much more nature around the neighborhood.

“Daniela is so sweet and does amazing work! She groomed my dog as well and did a fantastic job. I’ll definitely be back!”

“Sharett is incredible with my 2.5-year-old Husky-German Shepherd baby! Their genuine love for dogs and attention to detail made me feel at ease, and Tenley looked so happy when we picked him up from daycare, he almost didn’t want to leave. She pays a lot of attention to details such as dietary, water, and exercise needs perfectly and kept the experience stress-free. I highly recommend Sharett and will certainly book with her again!”

About: I am a calm grad student with a flexible schedule. I've had a dog since I was 14. I have experience with cats as well. I love animals, and due to my classes my schedule is very open. I have no dog preference and as long as your pet is happy I'm happy. I would also be more than happy to answer any questions you may have for me. I'm mainly using this app to spend more time outside with animals. I really enjoy long walks and because I'm a broke grad student I can't get a dog so I would gladly walk yours. I currently have a cat named Jerry Seinfeld, however he's no dog. Though I did teach him how to play fetch.
