“Jean was amazing with my golden. I loved getting pictures and videos daily and knowing that he was having a great time. My big guy has terrible anxiety during storms and is on a high dose of anxiety medication that sometimes works. When a bad storm rolled in Jean was compassionate and loving and notified me about his condition. As a very overprotective dog mom I trust Jean and we will definitely be using her again.”

About: Hi! I’m Jessica, a lifelong dog lover - I’ve grown up with dogs since I was 10 🐶 While I don’t currently have a dog of my own, I get my dog fix by fostering and volunteering with Second City Canine Rescue as an adoption event handler and foster babysitter. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, personalities, and comfort levels. I'm comfortable with anxious or high-attachment dogs, senior dog care, and medication administration. I’m happy to welcome your pup into my home or stay with them in theirs. I’ll treat your dog like family and keep you updated with lots of pictures along the way! I’m available on weekends for boarding and house sitting and can typically extend this until Monday/Tuesday, when needed. My full time job allows for a lot of flexibility and I am able to stick to a pet’s normal routine. I care for every pet as if they were my own. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walking routines, and any special needs. I make sure pets have plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and a calm environment where they feel safe and comfortable. In a client’s home, I respect their space and keep everything clean and organized. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners feel confident their pet is happy and well cared for.

I will book with Hannah whenever I need to if no conflict with her schedule. It's a great feeling that I will not feel anxious to plan vacation at the future anymore because I found Hannah.”

“Jayne was amazing - definitely the best caretaker I have worked with thus far. Gumbo absolutely loved her and it showed through in all the pictures she sent me (major plus as it makes me feel more secure with being away). Jayne really went above and beyond - taking notes when I was going over his daily routine and even helping me carry back all his supplies at the end of the day. We will definitely be using her going forward and would highly recommend her to other users in the midtown east area. Thanks for everything Jayne!!”

“This was the first time my 10yo dog, Finley, did not have someone stay with him in his own home. Kyle had been recommended to me by a friend’s daughter. We did a meet and greet prior to my leaving, and tho it went well, I was quite anxious about leaving Finn. Fortunately, all my fears were unfounded; each day I received a photo and/or a brief update. Finn was completely fine and quite nonchalant about my return. Kyle gave him his meds, more walks than I do, and I don’t think he was alone once! I feel great about having a resource in Kyle and his family for future trips!”

I will absolutely only use Jae now. And our dogs have become great friends too, so what an incredible bonus!”

About: Since finding a stray kitten when I was 5 to now, I can’t remember a time without a cat in my home. In that time I’ve handled it all from day old kittens to senior cats and everything in between (even bathing one after getting sprayed by a skunk). During this time I want to college and even got more knowledge on how to care for these fluff balls. I’ve given just about every form of meditation to cats if needed and I make sure they get mental stimulation for brain health as well. I’ve worked at a zoo taking care of animals as well so I know and have handled my own zoo at home!

About: Welcome to Sherry’s Pet Care Services – 50 Years of Caring for Pets. Because your furry family member deserves nothing less than the best! As a lifelong animal lover and dedicated pet parent myself, I understand that leaving your beloved companion is never easy. That's why I've created a warm, safe, and fun environment where your pet will receive the same love, attention, and care they get at home. What Makes My Service Special: Personalized Care: Every pet is unique, and I tailor my approach to match your pet's specific needs, personality, and routine. Whether they're a playful puppy who needs constant entertainment or a senior dog who prefers gentle walks and cozy naps, I adapt to what makes them happiest. Daily Adventures: From morning walks to afternoon play sessions and evening cuddles, your pet's day will be filled with activities. I'm located near beautiful parks and walking trails, perfect for dogs who love outdoor exploration. Peace of Mind: I provide regular photo and video updates throughout your pet's stay, so you can see exactly how much fun they're having. You'll never wonder how your furry friend is doing! For everyone’s safety, I only book 1 family at a time. If you have two dogs, that’s okay. Flexible Scheduling: I understand that travel plans can change. I offer flexible pickup and drop-off times, and I'm always available to discuss your pet's needs before their stay. Your Pet Will Experience: • Multiple daily walks and outdoor playtime • Individualized attention and cuddle sessions • Consistent feeding schedules with their familiar food • Medication administration if needed • Overnight companionship (no pet sleeps alone!) • Emergency veterinary care coordination if needed About Me: I've been caring for animals for 50 years. and I don’t have a pet now, so I can give all my attention to yours. I’ve volunteered for Save-A-Pet, the Anti-Cruelty Society and am a supporter of the ASPCA (American Society for the Protection of Cruelty to Animals). I'm committed to treating every guest like they're part of my own family. I'm available for meet-and-greets before any booking because I believe it's essential for your pet to feel comfortable with me before their stay. Your pet's happiness and your peace of mind are my top priorities. Ready to give your furry family member a vacation they'll love? Let's set up a meet-and-greet to discuss your pet's specific needs and see if we're the perfect match! All meet and greets will be held at Cynthia T. Peterson Park, 200 W Hawthorn Pkwy, Vernon Hills, IL 60061, because this is the park I will be walking your precious pooch. I’m currently unemployed and looking for full time work, so I’ll have plenty of time to care for and play with your pups! I’m also available for boarding during the week and on weekends. I have a beautiful park nearby to walk your pup in a dog friendly environment. I follow Cesar Milan and use his techniques with trust, love and respect.

About: Hi there! I'm a lifelong dog lover who recently relocated to the USA. While I love it here, I deeply miss the family dogs I had to leave back in my home country. Having grown up surrounded by dogs, I'm so excited to open my heart and home to your furry family member! What sets me apart is the personalized attention your dog will receive. I am currently home full-time, so caring for dogs is my main focus. My husband also works from home, which means there is almost always someone in the apartment, and your pup will rarely, if ever, be left alone. I live in a comfortable apartment with wonderful green spaces nearby for walks and outdoor time. I'm happy to adapt to your dog's unique personality and routine. If your pup loves to stay active, I'd be delighted to take them on walks or runs. If they prefer a slower pace, they're welcome to curl up on the couch with me for plenty of cuddles and relaxation. Having grown up with dogs, I understand how difficult it can be to leave your beloved pet with someone else. I'll care for your dog as if they were my own and keep you updated with regular photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you're away. I can't wait to meet your pup! I am home during the day, which allows me to provide attentive, personalized care throughout your dog's stay. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, so I can easily follow your pup's established feeding, bathroom, exercise, and medication schedule. I take care of all daily walks, playtime, and one-on-one attention to ensure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved. My husband works from home full-time, so while I am your dog's primary caregiver, there is almost always someone else in the home as well. This means your dog will have plenty of companionship and will rarely, if ever, be left alone. With our flexible schedules, your pup can enjoy frequent potty breaks, regular exercise, and lots of affection throughout the day. Your dog's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I live in a quiet, peaceful neighborhood in a ground-floor apartment, which is ideal for dogs since there are no steep stairs or elevator rides to navigate. We also have a securely gated balcony where your pup can safely enjoy some fresh air and watch the world go by. I keep my home dog-proofed, free of hazards, and calm so every guest feels comfortable and secure. While I am the one providing your dog's care, my husband works from home, so there is almost always someone in the home as well. During walks, I always keep dogs securely on a leash, stay aware of our surroundings, and prioritize their safety at all times. I treat every dog in my care with the same love, patience, and attention I would give my own.

“Deidre was AMAZING with my with two pups and can’t RECOMMEND her enough! Unfortunately, one of my dogs became very ill before I left for vacation and required extensive, round the clock care. Deirdre was able to administer all of the medications, stick to the strict food regimen, come by every 2 hours to check in, and even cleaned up all of the accidents from my sick pup. :/ She kept me updated throughout the trip with texts and pictures, asked questions when needed, and when my other dog sitter fell through at last minute, she was able to rearrange her schedule to cover. Overall, I am very grateful for her help and it truly put my mind at ease knowing Deirdre could be there to take care of them! Thank you again!”

About: I have worked in Veterinary medicine for over 14 years. I started out as a kennel attandant and worked by way up to become an uncertified veterinarty technicican. I started pet sitting when I was in high school for my neighbors and have done it part-time ever since. I have experience with all sorts of dog and cat behaviors. I am flexible and can accommodate for most things. I do work 4 10 hr shift right now. I am available in the early AM and late PM. I do have weekends off right now as well. Depending on the location, I can stop in on my lunch breaks if it isn't too far from my work. I will be able to do anything a pet owner asks of me. I think it is good to keep the pet's routine as close to their norm as possible when their owners are away. This helps limits the stress for the pets.

About: My doggies taught me everything I know. They are no longer here - they went to doggy heaven and we miss them all the time. My teens and I have a lot love to give and want to share with your doggy. You can rest assured we would treat your doggy as if it were ours. Also, anything under 10.5 miles for more than 1 day I offer pick up and dropp off. I work from home and have a very tight routine in our home that will help your pet feel calm and secure. Since pets thrive on routine it will bring them peace and calmness. I can give extra walks when it's a nice day and make sure we stay active if need or relaxed and enjoying a lazy "dog day". I have a quiet, grassy backyard that gives dogs a calm place to sniff, stretch their legs, and enjoy fresh air. It's a low-stress space that's great for potty breaks and relaxed outdoor time. I'm very mindful of which dogs are a good fit for my space and always put safety and comfort first so that your pups feel happy and at ease while they're with me. Doggies are allowed on our beds and couches and even our bathrooms :) - we keep a light sense of humor

I’m Jessica, a lifelong dog lover - I’ve grown up with dogs since I was 10 🐶 While I don’t currently have a dog of my own, I get my dog fix by fostering and volunteering with Second City Canine Rescue as an adoption event handler and foster babysitter. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, personalities, and comfort levels. I'm comfortable with anxious or high-attachment dogs, senior dog care, and medication administration. I’m happy to welcome your pup into my home or stay with them in theirs. I’ll treat your dog like family and keep you updated with lots of pictures along the way! I’m available on weekends for boarding and house sitting and can typically extend this until Monday/Tuesday, when needed.

“Katerina provided terrific TLC to our senior dog. She has her own sweet older dog and they got along great. It is a quiet, peaceful, and comfy home and we would not hesitate to bring our pup there again next time we need a dog sitter.”

“Angela was very welcoming and caring for our Gizmo! From the moment we arrived her and her husband greeted us with open arms. We were going camping and our schedule was a little off but they made time for us. We received pictures and updates daily and were really pleased. Would highly recommend to anyone using this service for the 1st time. Thanks again!”

“This was the first time my 10yo dog, Finley, did not have someone stay with him in his own home. Kyle had been recommended to me by a friend’s daughter. We did a meet and greet prior to my leaving, and tho it went well, I was quite anxious about leaving Finn. Fortunately, all my fears were unfounded; each day I received a photo and/or a brief update. Finn was completely fine and quite nonchalant about my return. Kyle gave him his meds, more walks than I do, and I don’t think he was alone once! I feel great about having a resource in Kyle and his family for future trips!”

“Juliana is such a nice lady and she treats Cooper really well. She sent me pictures once a while and Cooper seems happy in her house. She followed all the instructions I sent her due to Cooper's sensitive stomach, and Cooper ate well and slept well. I am happy to find a good Dog sitter!”

“Megan took wonderful care of my 8‑month‑old golden retriever during his very first 5‑day boarding stay. She kept me updated every day with pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. He was clearly happy, safe, and well cared for. I’m very happy with her service and will definitely recommend her and book with her again.”

We appreciate the photos and comments that are sent to us throughout Winnie’s stay. Winnie loves Chisato and enjoys the time she spends with her. Chisato has certainly earned recognition for being a STAR sitter!”

“We were really happy with our decision to have Monica care for our two dogs during a weekend away. She was super responsive, flexible, and accommodating and it was obvious she loves animals and took very good care of them. Her house is very clean with lots of places for the dogs to relax, and her fenced backyard was perfect for playtime. Highly recommend!”
