“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.”
“Kamiah and Casius were great sitters for Bailey. For me, it was a very last minute booking and Kamiah was incredibly accommodating to make it work. She was also very quick to contact us on the first day when Bailey wasn't eating (but everything was fine, as this is how Bailey always is at a new place), and Bailey looked very happy in the photos and videos we got each day. Also, Kamiah's pick-up and drop-off were prompt and efficient. I definitely plan to use them again!”
“Chelsea is such a wonderful sitter !!! My dog absolutely loves her and her family. It’s great knowing that my dog is in great hands when I’m away and Chelsea always takes great care of her. Highly recommend Chelsea !!”

“Nemo took to Kathleen right away. She kept him busy with walking and playing with her children. She is a dog lover! He is as in good hands. Sent several pics too. Would definitely ask her to sit again.”
“Tonisha is very kind, flexible, responsive. I missed my drop off window and she was very gracious. She shared daily photos and asked about Langston’s behaviors to ensure he was safe i.e.going on walks, etc. If possible, we hope to work with her again.”
“Janet was the best! I was nervous to leave my dog behind, but she eased my fears. She sent me pictures every day and her dogs welcomed my dog into their pack right away. He was sad to come home! I couldn’t have asked for a more wonderful sitter. We’ll definitely be repeat customers! Thank you, Janet!”
“My dog was so calm after I picked him up boarding with Kyla. Energetically, I could tell that he was very well taken care of with her - no stress, no anxiety, just peace. TY KYLA!!!”
“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.”

“Ashley was great and took great care of our dog. She was communicative and sent a bunch of photos to make sure we were updated on how he was doing. Took him to the dog park, on walks, etc. Made us feel completely at ease while we were on a trip.”
“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.”
“Prince absolutely loves it when I bring him here while I’m away. Joanna always takes good care of my baby. Going above and beyond. Very much so appreciated. Will be rebooking again soon”
“You and your family were truly wonderful. Thank you so much for embracing my fur baby and making him feel right at home. The constant reassurance, the beautiful pictures, and the updates meant more to me than you know. I could tell he was being loved and well cared for the entire time. You were also incredibly flexible and attentive, which I truly appreciate. I’m so grateful for the care you gave — we will definitely be back! A++++++++”
“Tim is a great guy who is amazing with animals. He provided pictures and updates every day. My dog did not even want to leave. He obviously provided great care and was very flexible with my schedule for pick up and drop off. I really appreciate his dedication and genuine love of animals.”
“Dulce is a fantastic sitter - very communicative, follows all instructions, and sends great updates with adorable photos. My dog, Moose, loves her and her little dog! We ran into them on a walk after his most recent stay and he planted his feet to wait for them and tried to follow them home. I would be so happy to have Dulce watch my dog again!”

I pay attention to details, follow instructions carefully, and make sure owners feel fully informed while they’re away.

About: I’ve taken care of both kittens and older cats, I try my best to understand each animal. I also have experience with street cats, which tend to need more help due to trauma. I’d love to help you and your feline needs as much as possible
About: Dogs were the first things I ever knew. I have grown up around animals my whole life and dogs have always been apart of my world. Currently I have 3 dogs back at my home. I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, big breeds, and small breeds. I used to work at a doggy day care and have skills in dog training. I will do whatever it takes to make your pet feel like they being taken care with as much love as you give them when you are home. It is my personal duty to respect their boundaries and do my best work to provide you comfort while you are away too. Your pet will be treated as one of my own. At the moment I am out for summer and free to work! I will start my second to last semester of undergrad in September!

“Chelsea did an amazing job caring for my kitties over the holidays! First, I ended up booking shorter notice and Chelsea responded immediately, was flexible, and was able to accommodate me and my babies. Chelsea was a great communicator when she was caring for my kitties, she gave consistent updates about how they were doing, as well as the tasks she completed when caring for them (refilling food and water, cleaning the litter box). I really appreciated the time and effort Chelsea put into caring for my babies, especially during the holiday time. Thank you!”
“Elizabeth watched our cat Chachi and she did an amazing job! He’s typically very shy but Elizabeth was so gentle and patient that he immediately warmed up to her. Having Elizabeth watch him gave us a really big sense of relief and made us feel safe leaving him knowing he was in such good hands. I can tell she really cared for him and enjoyed his company. I hope to always use Elizabeth when we’re out of town.”
“Dominique went above and beyond while caring for Scally. It was not as easy because of some major hiccups, but Dominique was absolutely willing to do whatever necessary to provide excellent care for Scally. I would absolutely ask her back to care for Scally. Anyone would be lucky to hire her to care for their pets.”

“Gabriel was an excellent dog sitter for Walnut. He was attentive, patient, and very professional throughout the entire experience. He communicated clearly, provided updates, and always confirmed details, which gave me great peace of mind.

“This was our first time using Rover, so we were a bit nervous about leaving our two pups for the day (especially a teething puppy). Dwight however made us feel at ease and we appreciated that he sent us several pictures throughout the few hours our pups were with him. He even gave our pups a new toy! Thanks Dwight !”

About: While I do not currently share my life with a dog of my own (it's a matter of being unable to adopt every dog I lay my eyes on!), I dearly love helping pet parents keep their dogs happy and healthy and preferably in their own homes while their owners are away. I love to travel,and love to spend time with as many dogs as I can possibly fit into my day. You can often find me chatting with others about their animals, and I am always interested in hearing about every little detail. I enjoy helping people get a greater understanding regarding the welfare of their animals, and sometimes bore my friends with random and obscure dog breeds, and what I know of their temperament and behavior. I'm proud to say I try to research as many breeds as I can so that I know what to expect, and hey, it's always fun to just know why and how a breed came into existence! I happen to also be studying veterinary technology, for the knowledge of nutrition and behavior, since surgery is more information than I want. :D I am also very happy to drop by or stay with your cats, and am quite used to the varying personalities of these small creatures: the ones who like to play hide and seek, the aloof, the playful, and the grumpy. I don't mind at all, as long as the cat is comfortable, eating, and using their litter box, all is well! I can work my day around your dog or cat, as I am a dedicated sitter, and much prefer to spend my time enjoying the company of cats and dogs as much as I can. I much prefer to stay with the dog or cat in their own home, as having their familiar surroundings help them remain peaceful, happy, and comfortable.

About: I am a CPR certified pet sitter who loves animals and loves to care for things. I have no pets of my own because I travel often for my full-time job . However. , I look forward to building a trust worthy, healthy relationship with you and your animal family. I currently work from home full-time so I have flexible hours.

“Roxy is the best. If I could, I would give her 10 stars. Amber has had 3 walks with Roxy now and she loves it. Amber is a 8 month old puppy who is not easy to handle. Roxy takes her time to make my pup comfortable and happy. She gives out a gist at the end of each walk and it really gives me a collective idea on how to train my dog. We are really happy with Roxy and we are planning to be her repeat client.”
About: I’ve always been the go-to among family and friends to watch their animals when they are gone for trips or vacations or need extra help. I’m an avid walker in general, and a walk is always better with a pet! I’ve volunteered for two years at animal shelters, trained and raised a puppy, and have experience caring for pets young and old. I’m currently a writer, remote copy-editor, and substitute teacher with an incredibly flexible schedule at the moment. I can watch, walk, and care for dogs and cats pretty much 24/7 at the moment. The only thing I cannot do is host animals in my home due to my apartment’s lease. Every pet is different and every pet owner cares for their pet differently. Let me know all your animals quirks and needs and I’ll meet them happily! I’d love to walk your dog around the park or neighborhood, give them them their special treats, respect your cat’s weird boundaries and quirks, etc, etc. :)
“Tamara has been walking my dog Blowe daily since this summer, and I honestly couldn’t ask for better care. Blowe genuinely looks forward to his morning walks with her and always comes back happy and relaxed. Having someone I trust with him every day gives me real peace of mind.”

About: I’ve grown up with animals all my life and my house was always noisy. However, now that I’ve moved away from home I’ve been missing the little guys. Im going into a my Masters program at UChicago! I’m also a barista at Starbucks! I usually work in the early morning so my afternoons are pretty open!

About: I’ve taken care of my own dog and cat for 7 years and before then was the go to sitter for all my friends with pets! I’m also a PhD student in psychology working in animal behaviors.

Mornings work the best at the moment but let me know what you need I’ll try to make it work :) I have a comfy apartment with one dog and one cat. They’ll keep your baby company if you board with us. I’m skilled in introducing new animals to each other, I try to adjust to each animals temperaments. On other visits I try to get to your babies first as well, and of course your tips are always appreciated as you know them the best!
About: I genuinely enjoy being around animals and caring for them. I’ve worked with both young and older pets, and I’m patient, attentive, and make sure they feel safe and comfortable. I stick to their routine and give them the care and attention they need. I also keep owners updated so you always know your pet is in good hands. I’m currently work weekends only, so I will be available throughout the week to care for pets. My schedule is flexible and open, to accommodate your needs. I care for pets by keeping them on their normal routine so they feel comfortable and stress-free. In my home or a client’s home, I make sure they’re fed on time, have fresh water, get walks or playtime, and have a clean, safe space to relax. I pay attention to their behavior and adjust to their needs—whether they’re energetic or more calm. I also respect the client’s home, follow all instructions, and send updates so you always know your pet is safe and doing well.
About: I’ve had taken of pets since I was in high school. My Neighbors Friends and Family had relied on me to walk and feed their pets. I will Feed, walk, and play with your pet daily. Weekly: bathe, clean their area, check health, and train. Keep them happy and healthy, always! 🐾 Making sure I have all the instructions and information and emergency contact information for every stay also I can easily crate your dog if needed.

“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.”
“Chelsea is such a wonderful sitter !!! My dog absolutely loves her and her family. It’s great knowing that my dog is in great hands when I’m away and Chelsea always takes great care of her. Highly recommend Chelsea !!”

“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.”

“Ashley, on short notice and later with a cold, accepted my new puppy in her home with great energy. As of this writing, she has spent more time with my Snoopy than me, and I’m jealous. She is professional and skilled at managing multiple animals. She was a caring life saver for my impromptu two week trip out of town. Thank you again. 💜”

“Hannah was fantastic with my dog, Callie! She took her out to her farm, which she loved, and kept me updated with plenty of pictures and messages throughout the stay. Hannah even gave her a bath before bringing her back to the city, which was a thoughtful touch. I could tell Callie was well cared for and had a great time. I will definitely be booking with Hannah again!”
