“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!”

Bailey was sensitive in incorporating Freddy into her pack of two dogs. I felt very comfortable and confident that Freddy was well cared for. Thank you!”
“We are first time pet owners and this was our first time leaving our new pup Leo. Kendra was wonderful.

“Liz was a lifesaver for us last month. We reached out to her the night before our trip, and from the very beginning she was incredibly attentive. She took the time to come over and meet us and our cat in person. She even made a point to gently approach our shy fur baby, who could already sense we were leaving, and that meant so much to me. Liz took amazing care of our girl for twenty days. She was always on time and made sure to keep our cat’s routine as consistent as possible. When we got home, everything was exactly how we left it and, most importantly, we found a calm, and well-cared-for cat. We are so grateful for Liz and truly hope we can count on her again the next time we travel.”
“Nikki was absolutely wonderful with my cats! Her drop in messages were so detailed, she provided photos of my kitties during her visits, and she went above and beyond my instructions, making sure my cats were well fed and taken care of. She has gained a repeat client in me, and I’d recommend her to anyone looking for pet care!”
About: I provide calm, attentive care tailored to each cat’s personality and routine. Whether your cat is playful, shy, or senior, I focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while keeping you updated with photos and messages.
About: Animals naturally bring me joy, and I love building trust with every pet I meet. I enjoy active walks, play sessions, and making sure pets get plenty of attention and affection. I’m responsible, communicative, and committed to making your pet feel happy and cared for. I’ve always owed cats so I have more experience with them. I have experience giving them oral medication and love them as companions. I currently own two lovely boys. Tiger and Benji.
“Emily was great! Communication was easy and prompt and Emily made drop off and pick up a breeze. It was very reassuring to know that Cocoa was in good hands while we were away!”
“Luis is a trustworthy, respectful, and very easy going. Both Carnitas and Nacho took to his energy right away. Luis has given us peace of mind during our family vacation. We highly recommend Luis to take care of your purr babies.”
About: Hi! I am currently a receptionist at an animal hospital located in Bucktown/Wicker Park. I have worked as a dog handler, or what we refer as a pack leader, at a doggy daycare located in the West Loop neighborhood in the past for over two years. I am certified in canine first aid, and I usually spend around 8-9 hours a day with medium to big dogs and also cats. I have gained a lot of experience by spending time with dogs that have different behaviors, from friendly to aggressive, I have not faced any issues with dogs yet. I have also spent time around dogs that require special care, so that would definitely not be an issue with me. Overall, I am always willing to spend time with doggies, even friends call me the dog whisperer :)
“Tara is fantastic! You can tell she really enjoys her job! She is timely, thorough and loving! Tara took great care of our big boy kitty Bela, she took time to get to know him, Bela loves to play and Tara was great playing with him, above and beyond what was expected! Tara is great with communicating and sending pictures, we felt very comfortable leaving Bela in her care. We will definitely request her again the next time we need care for Bela! We highly recommend Tara W!”

About: What sets me apart? I’m not just a pet sitter—I’m a pet’s personal playmate and snuggle expert! From teaching puppies their first tricks, I also have a gentle touch with senior pets, providing extra comfort , I make sure your fur babies feel special. Whether it's playtime, cuddle time, or just a stroll around the block, I tailor each visit to match their vibe and needs, ensuring they’re always happy and cared for. As a college student, I’ve learned how to manage my time efficiently, and pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine.

Between classes, I make sure to provide consistent attention, ensuring each pet gets the exercise, training, and affection they need.

When caring for pets in my home, I create a safe, comfortable space that’s pet-friendly and free of hazards. I ensure plenty of room for play, rest, and exploration while keeping things routine and familiar. If I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow their pet’s usual routines as closely as possible, maintaining feeding schedules, walking routes, and playtimes. I also take extra care to respect the home environment, keeping things tidy and secure. Whether at my place or yours, my goal is always to create a stress-free, loving environment for your pets to feel safe and happy.
About: I’ve had cats for over a decade now, and I work with animals for 11 years. I’m experienced in all kinds of medications, oral, injectable, eyes, ears, etc. I am also comfortable with all kinds of kitties, spicy, social, shy, quiet. I like them all.
“A truly fantastic catsitter who I always book--Yesenia cares about my cats, plays with them, and makes them happy while I am gone. I am never stressed or concerned about them when I book her.”
“SO amazing!!!! Gionna is so friendly and such a pleasure to work with. Not only did she take care of everything we needed for our kitty while we were gone but she went above and beyond to accommodate our kitty’s initial shyness and with Gionna’s patience and knowledge of cats, she was able to get her to come out and play/cuddle too!!! Gionna is so great and really helped us to be able to relax and trust our beloved pet was well taken care of while we were gone. Thank you so SO much again for being so awesome Gionna!!!!!!”
About: I just recently had a beautiful baby boy, and before him I’ve had my beautiful fur babies. I have two dogs that I love and treat as my sons. Making that a total of three sons (one baby boy,two dogs), my dogs are small but I also have had dogs that were much bigger than I am. My dog that was bigger than I was had to go to doggy heaven, but it explains that I have experience with different sizes and breeds. I love animals and would love to be apart of your fur baby’s life. I wouldn’t mind dog sitting or dog walking. Let me know if you need me, I am available more in the evening or available to schedule if needed.
About: I have over 5 years of experience caring for dogs and around 4 years of experience caring for cats. I’ve cared for pets with different personalities, routines, and energy levels, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I also have personal experience caring for my own kitten, who I adopted about a month ago. Taking care of her has helped me become even more attentive to daily pet care routines, including feeding, playtime, grooming, and maintaining a clean environment. I deep clean her litter box weekly and make sure she has a safe, happy, and healthy space. In addition, I’ve helped babysit and care for my uncle’s cat for around 3 years, giving me even more hands-on experience with cats and their unique needs and behaviors. Along with dogs and cats, I also have experience caring for turtles, hamsters, and guinea pigs, so I’m comfortable caring for a variety of animals and understanding their specific needs. Friends and family trust me because I’m dependable, patient, and genuinely love animals. I treat every pet like family and always aim to provide a stress-free and loving experience for both pets and owners. I also provide regular photo and video updates so pet parents can feel reassured while they’re away.
About: I've owned pets my whole life. I currently own two dogs: a Coton de Tulear named Kitty and a sweet German Shepherd named Medusa. I volunteer at animal shelters, and work as a veterinarian assistant. I have experience with cats and dogs ranging from newborns to seniors. While I have my own pets, rest assured your baby will have my undivided attention while in my care.
About: I have experience caring for cats of different ages, personalities, and care needs. My experience includes feeding according to specific schedules, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, administering basic medications when needed, and providing companionship through playtime and affection while respecting each cat's comfort level and boundaries. I understand that every cat is unique, and I take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and behaviors to help them feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I am attentive to signs of stress, illness, or changes in behavior and will communicate promptly with pet parents if I notice anything concerning. Whether caring for a playful kitten, an independent adult cat, or a senior cat with special needs, I strive to provide reliable, compassionate care and maintain a clean, calm environment. My goal is to ensure both cats and their owners have peace of mind throughout the booking.
About: I’m sure all sitters say this but I genuinely have a seat for being with animals. Sometimes I prefer them over people and treat them like they’re my own. I love all of their personalities and quirks. Anywhere I go I ask to pet someone’s dog and respect what the dog’s body language is telling me. I have a Siberian husky so I have had to learn how to read body language and potential environmental stressors very well. I invest a generous amount of time into learning about dog breeds and am always opening to learning more! Currently, I am home for the holidays with plenty of time to care for your pets while you’re away! I have access to a car and am eager to work. Extensive experience with dogs, slightly less with cats but always open to caring! I love giving them constant stimulation and walks. Pets and treats are always given. I treat all dogs like they’re my own. I have an eye on them almost at all times.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and genuinely love being around them. Most of my experience is with larger breeds, but I’ve also cared for small dogs and understand their different needs. Dogs tend to warm up to me quickly, and I make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. I work from home most of the week, so your dog will have lots of company and care throughout the day. We'll take regular breaks for walks and playtime, and my big yard gives them plenty of space to run around and burn off energy. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your dog. My home is a safe, welcoming space where dogs are treated like family. With a large, fully fenced yard and lots of supervision, I make sure every pup feels comfortable, relaxed, and well cared for.

“Dayana was a great dogsitter to our puppy Honey. She sent pictures and videos throughout the day of Honey having fun and being taken on walks, and she was very nice and communicative. I will definitely be reaching back out for more dog sitting with Dayana!”
“Second time using Emily as a dog sitter for Sadie! We love Emily! She sends lots of updates and treats Sadie like her own! It’s just a really relieving feeling being somewhere else and knowing that your dog isn’t sitting in a crate miserable because you’re away. With Emily, we know that Sadie gets lots of attention, pets and even a big yard to run around in!! My husband and I are so thankful we found such a fantastic dog sitter! We will definitely be booking with Emily again!”
“Yesenia was amazing! She was able to accommodate and watch Baby last minute. She was super sweet and updated us on how Baby was doing and even sent us pictures of her having a blast. Baby came home tired from all the fun she had. Would definitely recommend leaving your little one with her.”
“Best 1st time experience! Sabrina is true to her calling of being a fabulous care provider to our puppy Rocco. She made sure the communication channel was open and was an expert in everything she did. Rocco was excited to see her and the girls! Rocco was in a warm and loving environment, my husband was also very pleased with how well Rocco took to her. We all agree a puppy is A LOT of work but Sabrina was extremely patient with him and us. Thank you so much for helping our little family and taking on Rocco. We hope to see you again soon!”
“Athena took great care of our pup for daycare. She provided updates, was very caring and attentive for our pup. Athena was very knowledgeable and asked all the right questions prior to taking care of our dog, which helped make the process very easy and gave us peace of mind. We recommend her!”
“Julian is very good with my sammy. He was gentle and kind and got my sammy to do things he was never doing in the house and that’s with one day with him! Julian kept me updated with messages and pictures throughout the day which really reassured me and my peace of mind. Definitely will be returning with sammy in the future!”

“I can’t recommend Mary enough! She stepped in last minute to take care of our pup, Monty, for a full day, and we couldn’t be more grateful. From the moment we met her, she was welcoming and friendly, giving us a tour of her lovely home, which put us at ease knowing Monty would be well cared for. Mary took Monty out for a walk, fed him, and even has grassy areas in her backyard for him to enjoy. She kept us updated throughout the day with photos and messages, which we really appreciated. It was clear he was having a great time! If you’re looking for someone to care for your pup, look no further than Mary. She truly is fantastic!”

He communicated clearly, provided updates, and always confirmed details, which gave me great peace of mind. Walnut seemed very happy and comfortable with him, and it was clear he genuinely enjoyed spending time with Gabriel. I truly felt that Walnut was in good hands. I would definitely recommend Gabriel and would love for him to continue sitting for us in the future.”

About: I have loved pets since I was a kid. I was obsessed with learning about them. After my first pet died, I was very motivated on learning about how to offer pets the very best life, and this comes through research! I have worked with a variety of animals. Working at PetSmart allowed me to get a better hands on experience as it opened a door to working with cats, sick animals who needed medication, and working with large numbers of pets. This also helped me see what methods worked and what methods to avoid when taking care of our beloved pets. I have a very flexible schedule and will be available for you and your pets. I don’t have a set schedule yet due to work and school. Safety is my top priority. You know your pet best, I will work with what I have and incorporate new techniques and ideas once your pet trusts me. I have a porch that is safe meanwhile my garage is being built at the moment.
About: I’ve have taken care of pets before as I do have a dog myself and I have also looked over and cared for cats cause anytime family is away anytime I look over them. I’m currently in summer break from college and I been spending time with my dog and making sure he goes outside and I also have time to make appointments for him such as vet visits or showers. In my house we have a gate and we always the gate close so my dog doesn’t get out. I also have the a/c running most of the time so my dog could chill as summer is coming around the corner. I always make sure he has food and water.
About: As an owner of two senior dogs I have learned that they need extra patience and care. I make sure the dogs are feeling comfortable and relaxed by taking the dogs outside as they need to use the bathroom and sun bath for a while. But I also like to give them plenty of time inside if they just want to rest and be pet or cuddled. It's important they get excersise too with some play time or a walk. Pet care goes smoothly with my schedule as a mom and a flea market vendor. My husband Julian does help out in every activity with our pawed guests too. We include a free walk for every day of the stay. Dogs will be taken out to the yard on demand or twice an hour for potty times. For all dogs we will provide two separate hours of play time during the day. If a dog has high energy we will play for about 10 minutes after every potty time. Some of the safety measures with my service include having a fenced back yard, being outside with the dogs until they are ready to go back inside, and having a calm and cozy environment for each individual dog or cat guest.
About: I have taken care of family pets my whole life, no pets are allowed in my household so I have taken every opportunity to interact with and care for animals outside of my home. I make sure to keep up with their needs while also providing them an enjoyable environment! I work from home so I am able to relocate wherever there is WiFi connection, the work isn’t too demanding so I am able to care for pets immediately. I work 8:00 am to 4:30 pm Monday through Friday and have 24/7 availability! I have an hour lunch break and am also available anytime after work and on weekends! I cannot have animals in my home so being in a clients home is best for me. I adhere to all instruction given by owners and follow the schedules set for the animal. I am open to entertaining and watching after the animal at all hours!
About: My deep love for puppies and all pets is what makes me unique. I'm kind, compassionate, and constantly concerned with ensuring their safety, love, and happiness. Because they deserve the very best, I treat each dog as if they were family. I’m available Monday through Thursday from 6 AM to 11 AM—perfect for morning walks, playtime, or drop-in visits to start your pup’s day off right! I always provide a loving, peaceful environment where your dog feels secure and content, whether I'm taking care of dogs in your house or mine. I take great care to feed, walk, play, and cuddle them in the same manner that they are accustomed to. No matter where they are, I make sure they feel at home by keeping everything tidy, comfortable, and loving.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 13, mainly my own, but I’ve also taken care of friend’s and family friend’s dogs in these past 3 years, so I understand the anxiety or fear of leaving a part of your family in the care of someone that isn’t you and won’t treat your pet like you will. That’s why I always adjust and accommodate my services to every pet’s needs. When it comes to basic care of pets, I always take puppies and dogs on walks at whichever time of day that they need to go out, always making sure to bring snacks and water so they always stay hydrated and healthy. I make sure they have enough playtime inside and outside so they don’t get bored and are entertained. I understand that not every dog wants to play or can’t move too much, so I of course adjust these activities to accommodate every pet’s individual needs so they’re always comfortable and happy. I also have experience with senior care, specifically giving dogs the medicines they need at the intended hours of the day or night. It goes without saying that my main priority are the pets in my care so I also make sure to always check up on every pet at different hours and times, rarely leaving them out of my sight (while also keeping my distance if they’re resting) to ensure they’re always okay. I work part-time remotely since I finished university in March of 2024. So I have no issues with times and days that will work best for you and your pets! I care for pets in client’s homes by making sure they’re never missing anything, from food, water, toys, time to go to the bathroom, medicines if they take them, etc… I make sure pets understand I’m simply there as an aid for them and someone they can play with if they choose to! I’m simply there to ensure every pet is taken care of while also having time to play and give them their space, after all, it’s their home and they need to feel the most comfortable and safe in their own space.
About: I have two fur babies of my own that are Golden mixes and siblings. Elvis is the more active scaredy cat if you will while Priscilla loves to swim but is a huge couch potato otherwise. I also have grown up around dogs and collectively within my immediate family we own 11 dogs total of all shapes and sizes! Don't worry, they don't all live together, but they do go on play dates. That being said, I am comfortable with feeding, walking, and playtime as well as delivering medicine your pup may need. In addition, I am comfortable with watching a dog who may have separation anxiety and need full time supervision. Other animals I have taken care of are rabbits, hamsters, and fish. Being a fur mama myself, I know it can be nerve-wracking trusting someone with your baby, however, I will love your fur baby like my own! No need to ask about cuddles, belly rubs, and playtime, those are complimentary! I currently have a semi-flexible schedule to meet your pet's needs! I teach during the day (8-3:20) but am available before or after work on weekdays. I am usually free on the weekends though and update my calendar often. Your pets are my priority so I will make sure to be communicative about my schedule in advance. I like to make sure I follow the pet's routine and I make sure to give them extra love as I am sure they miss their parents! For dog walking, I will ask you about your pet's favorite walking path or generally what they like to do on walks. For dog sitting, lots of playtime will occur!
About: I provide reliable, attentive care tailored to each pet’s needs. I’m comfortable with puppies, senior pets, and different energy levels, and I always focus on making pets feel safe, happy, and loved. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages for peace of mind. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine as a nursing student because spending time with animals helps me stay active, reduce stress, and recharge mentally. Daily walks help me get my steps in, and being around dogs honestly makes even the busiest days better. I enjoy giving pets lots of attention, playtime, and care while keeping their routines consistent and owners updated. I grew up helping care for my mom’s dogs and now have a cat of my own who means everything to me. I also regularly care for my mom’s dogs when my family travels to Mexico, so I’m comfortable handling feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and daily routines independently. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I always focus on creating a safe, calm, and loving environment.
About: I have over 5 years of experience caring for dogs and around 4 years of experience caring for cats. Over the years, I’ve helped care for pets with different personalities, energy levels, and routines, and I genuinely enjoy making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. In addition to dogs and cats, I also have experience caring for turtles, hamsters, and guinea pigs, so I’m comfortable with a variety of animals and their specific care needs. I pay close attention to feeding schedules, exercise, cleanliness, and giving pets the attention and patience they deserve. Friends, family, and people close to me have trusted me to care for their pets because I’m dependable, attentive, and treat every animal like family. I understand how important pets are, and I always aim to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free experience for both pets and their owners. I also provide regular photo and video updates so pet parents can feel reassured knowing their pets are happy and well cared for. I’m currently a full-time college student, so I have a flexible schedule outside of classes and spend a lot of my time caring for my own kitten every day. Pet care is already a part of my daily routine, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’m dependable, organized, and able to make time throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, feeding, playtime, and giving pets attention and care while their owners are away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I make sure pets always have fresh water, clean food bowls, and a clean environment. I pay close attention to feeding schedules, routines, and any instructions provided by the owner to make sure pets feel comfortable and cared for. I also make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, affection, and bathroom breaks when needed. After walks or playtime, I like rewarding pets with treats (if approved by the owner) and making sure they feel relaxed and safe. I treat every pet like family and provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel reassured while away.

I love all of their personalities and quirks. Anywhere I go I ask to pet someone’s dog and respect what the dog’s body language is telling me. I have a Siberian husky so I have had to learn how to read body language and potential environmental stressors very well. I invest a generous amount of time into learning about dog breeds and am always opening to learning more! Currently, I am home for the holidays with plenty of time to care for your pets while you’re away! I have access to a car and am eager to work. Extensive experience with dogs, slightly less with cats but always open to caring! I love giving them constant stimulation and walks. Pets and treats are always given. I treat all dogs like they’re my own. I have an eye on them almost at all times.
About: I am a lifelong animal lover and pet caretaker, with tons of experience with dogs of all sizes, multiple breeds, puppies, and senior dogs! I was born and raised in Illinois, where I grew up as a caretaker for multiple cats and a German Shepard/Newfoundland mix named Henry, who I helped take care of with my family. I took care of my family’s chihuahua and acclimated him to a new environment. I have taken care of dogs and cats with plenty of unique situations who needed extra love! I moved to Las Vegas in 2016, and I am currently the co owner of 3 rescue pups, who require plenty of love, walks, and playtime. I adopted my dog Zeyda when she was 12 weeks old, and I worked with her a lot using positive reinforcement and attended training with her to help her gain confidence, learn basic life skills and tricks, and walk on a loose leash. I love helping pets and making them happy, giving each one the unique love and care that it needs. I am off during the summer (until August 1st) so I have very open availability! During the rest of the year I work full time, so I am typically available on weekends as well as evenings during the week. I may be available during the week around holidays as well. I have a 2 story house with a fenced yard, and a dog run across the street. My gated neighborhood is dog friendly and perfect for walks. My 2 roommates and I take care of 3 dogs, and they are friendly and loving.
About: With years of experience caring for dogs (mostly medium to small) I offer personalized, loving attention to ensure your pet feels safe, happy, and cherished! My work-from-home setup allows me to provide morning, midday visits, and I have flexible evenings and weekends. Ill be able to balance existing commitments with pet care I have a small fenced back yard with a ranch style house. I have two parks nearby that we can walk to get extra exercise!
About: From a young age, I've had a special bond with dogs. My parents took in neighborhood samoyeds and newfoundlands that had been abandoned by their owners. I grew up with them, trained them, did my best to make sure their home was loving. Since my neighbors knew I was good with large dogs, I frequently dog sat for them. I quickly became an expert in leash technique, engaging play, making sure they were fed right, and just plain being there for them. I don't have any dogs right now (my apartment is way too small) but I know I'll meet that special fluffy guy when I get a bigger place. I'm available nearly all the time, as I'm not currently working and am only doing occasional volunteering in the Bitter Lake/Greenwood/Shoreline area. I have the availability of a tireless assistant! I believe in respecting a dog's boundries while also being very mindful of their needs. From years of experience I've learned to find the proper balance and give the dog the best experience possible.
About: I’ve had many pets throughout my life growing up. I have a passion for pets of all sizes and species. weather they have feathers, fur, scales, four legs or even eight legs! I am excited to be able to help you by caring for your pets while you are away. Your babies will be cared for and loved just as if they were my own. Im currently working part time, so I’ll have plenty of time to put all my attention on your loved ones! Im available for boarding weekdays and weekends after 3pm but We can also accommodate I have a fenced yard for your fur baby to have a little sun bath and fresh air. When leaving clients’ home I love leaving pet friendly soothing music in the background to assure the pup is relaxed upon your arrival
About: Hi, I’m Sheccid 👋🏼 As a proud dog mom to my Chi-Beagle, Lily, I know that every pup has a unique personality. Dogs have always been a central part of my life, and l've become great at reading their cues and adapting to their specific needs. I currently live in a relaxed home with my husband and Lily. I work from home, so I'll give your pup plenty of focused attention throughout the day. I'm also lucky to have a fenced-in yard, providing a safe and private space for your dog to play and stretch their legs. I can adapt to all types of temperaments- whether your dog is shy and needs a patient hand or is bold and high-energy. If they enjoy making new friends, Lily is available to join us on our walks for some extra socialization. I am dedicated to building a bond of trust with every dog I meet (and their owner) and look forward to caring for your furry friend! I work part-time from home, so Lily and I will have plenty of time to go on walks, play, and keep your pet company while you’re gone. Although Lily is friendly I never leave them unsupervised or alone for too long. I’m flexible with their needs and can crate or give them their own space if they’re nervous.

This is their second visit with her and after only minutes of being back with her and her family, they knew where they were and settled right in. My pups love her and her family. I know that in her care, there’s no need to worry about them. She’s a kind and gentle soul who will take great care of your furry babies.”

“Bola was so kind to my dog Coco. I was worried she might be too much puppy to handle since she’s a big dog and gets easily excited but Bola was confident there would be no issue. Coco had a great day playing with the other doggies and came home nice and tired after her stay. Thanks Bola!”
“Timothy was a wonderful sitter ! He shared updates and photos regularly and gave my dog extra food because I didn’t pack enough. He was also very gracious to let me extend my booking on short notice due to travel delays. Highly recommend Timothy and hope we can book with him again !”
“Angel took good care of Ivy for a couple nights and sent lots of updates. He was also very flexible and was even willing to drop her off at my place since I wasn’t available to pick her up.”
“It was our first time boarding Koda, so we were a little nervous about how he would handle it. Megan made the entire experience incredibly comforting and seamless. She kept us updated throughout the day, responded quickly, and truly put our minds at ease. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would recommend her to anyone.”
“Cary (and family) were great hosts for Mashed Potato. He's a pretty no fuss dog, and she matched with a similar "chill energy". We got in a Meet & Greet ahead of time (not that MP ever met a stranger or enemy, but it was a good double check), and we got photos here and there over our pretty long time away (mostly of him enjoying scratches and attention). Otherwise, it was pretty no frills and a smooth process. He came back happy and healthy.”
“Chelsea was phenomenal!! 5 out of 5 stars doesn’t even begin to cover it. So easy to communicate with, we received more pictures then we knew what to do with, and she was consistently taking the dogs on walks, to the beach, and out for treats. Couldn’t be more thankful. If we are ever in Chicago again we will be using her services!!”
“Marissa was perfect. She sent an update and pics without being asked. Marissa immediately interacted with Lucy and helped her to feel calm. I was very impressed.”
“Amazing sitter for our dog! This was our first time leaving her for so many days not with family. Christina was great about sending updates and took wonderful care of Gobi. Will absolutely book with her again!!”
“If you are feeling uneasy about booking a person to care for your dog, look no further! Dayana is the absolute best and took phenomenal care of both my dogs. She kept me updated by sending videos and pictures. My dogs had the best time. She even did a cute photo shoot with my dogs. She was very attentive and loving to my dogs. Don’t think twice and book her! I’ll be selecting her for my upcoming trips.”
