“A true life saver! We attempted to keep our dog at a pet friendly hotel while we went to a concert, but Noodle decided she was going to let the hotel guests know how much she missed us by barking.

When I picked up my dog he was in a great mood and his appetite was coming back. Thanks so much Iman!!”
About: I’ve taken care of family members dogs and have been trusted for 2 weeks at a time with their dog over the summer.

I’m currently in on summer break and so my availability is more open at this time. Times may vary as I do work part time! I have a fenced yard that is large enough for your dog to play and get in exercise. There is a walkout basement that is dedicated to your dog!

I would definitely recommend and l, will for sure be using her again. Thanks Stefanie!!”

“I can’t say enough good things about Viktoria! I’m so thankful and grateful for how much love and care my Luna received from her! I’ve never felt good about leaving Luna with anyone the way I did with Viktoria. She reached out to me with updates daily, and even prior to take off on my flight she messaged just in time, and sent a video showing me how well Luna was doing. Just that reassurance before a long flight, was such a considerate and helpful thing! From day one through day 8, I was able to truly know Luna was having a wonderful staycation with her. Luna was treated with the best love and care, just like she does at home with us. Not only can you trust Viktoria to take care of your dog but she loves them like they’re her own… and you can’t ask for better! I highly recommend her to anyone! She is the best!! I’m so grateful we found her and will be using in the future anytime need be! Ten stars! ⭐️”

About: As a proud owner of 3 cats of my own, I am a true cat lover who understands cat culture! I know that every cat has a distinct personality, some are playful and social, while others need time and space to warm up to a new face. Having a multi-cat household means I am well-versed in the daily essentials of cat care, including: Feeding & Hydration: Maintaining precise feeding routines (wet/dry food balance) and keeping water fountains or bowls pristine. Litter Box Maintenance: Keeping up with strict scooping schedules to ensure a clean, smell-free & stress-free environment. Play & Socialization: Engaging curious minds with feather wands, laser pointers, and catnip toys, or simply providing quiet company for the shy kitties. Health & Behavior Monitoring: Recognizing subtle signs of stress or comfort, ensuring your cat feels safe and respected on their own terms!
“Evelina is reliable and happy to help! I have a scared kitty, so they never really interacted, but she came to feed and do the litter box each day and sent pictures to reassure me the job was done. Also, my cat eats a special diet and she prepared the special food (which requires extra steps) 100% on point. I would recommend her services and will use again!”

About: We’re lifelong dog lovers who truly understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. Having grown up around dogs and now caring for one of our own, we’re very familiar with daily routines, different temperaments, and the little things that keep dogs happy and comfortable. Many of our close family members are also dog owners, so caring for dogs has always been a big part of our lives. What sets us apart is our calm, attentive approach and hands-on experience. We’re comfortable administering medications, including giving pills, and we’re happy to follow any specific care instructions your dog needs. Whether it’s sticking to a routine, helping a nervous dog feel at ease, or providing extra patience for puppies or senior dogs, we’re committed to making sure every dog feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m a teacher, so I’m home full-time during the summer, and my wife works from home most days. This gives us a very flexible schedule, allowing us to adapt easily to each dog’s routine and specific needs. We care for every pet as if they were our own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well-loved whether they’re in our home or theirs. We stick closely to each dog’s usual routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions you provide. While we don’t have a fenced-in yard, we make sure dogs still get plenty of exercise and outdoor time by taking them out on a leash and going on regular walks. We’re attentive and hands-on during outdoor time to ensure their safety at all times.
“AWESOME SITTER - HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! Will be very happy to use Lynda again! I contacted Lynda the day before I was going for a spontaneous day trip to Michigan and she agreed to a last-minute booking for my dog Bob. Lynda was so gracious and invited Bob & me over to meet her, her husband, and their daughter's dog, Teddy. I was so thrilled Bob had a playmate for the day and the two pups got along very well! Lynda & Mark are fantastic people and even said to drop Bob off that night so I could start out early the next morning! Wow, did I appreciate that as it certainly made it easy for me! Lynda checked in with me the next day and all was well with Bob! I truly appreciated the update on my boy, Bob! My day trip ended up going a little later than planned and when I contacted Lynda to let her know I'd be late, she was wonderful! I felt genuinely fortunate to have Lynda and her husband watching Bob! Bob seemed very happy & content staying with them and I was extremely comfortable with this hospitable couple. I would highly recommend Lynda & Mark in a heartbeat and won't hesitate to have them watch Bob again!”

“WOW Peggy H did a great job with Opie. Neighbor's actually made a point to let me know they saw her walking Opie and were very impressed. Opie can be high energy and easily excitable but my neighbor noted that Peggy responded effectively both firm and kind. Peggy arrived within my time requests, followed all instructions regarding food/water etc. and even made sure Opie did not track anything inside. Highly recommend and would and will use again in the future.”

About: Hi! I'm a lifelong dog lover with over 10 years of professional experience working with dogs in veterinary clinics, doggie daycares, and grooming salons. Dogs have always been one of my greatest passions. I truly enjoy getting to know each dog's unique personality, whether they're a goofy puppy, an energetic adventure buddy, a shy rescue, or a senior who prefers a slower pace. One of my favorite parts of this work is building trust with dogs and watching them become excited to see me. As a pet parent myself, I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your dog. My goal is to provide the same level of care, patience, and attention that I would want for my own pets. Whether your dog enjoys a structured walk, extra sniffing time, playtime, or simply companionship during the day, I'll tailor my care to their individual needs. When your dog is with me, they're not just another appointment on my schedule—they're a member of the family. My most recent job with dogs was at a daycare for several years. I supervised dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. This experience gave me extensive knowledge of canine body language, play styles, and behavior. I learned how to safely manage group interactions, recognize early signs of tension, and help dogs remain comfortable and successful in social environments. In my free time, you'll usually find me out walking with my own dogs, taking my kids to their activities, discovering new music, or learning about native plants and wildlife! My current schedule includes dog walking, volunteering at an animal shelter, and taking care of my two wonderful sons. Thursdays are a busy day with activities with them so those days are currently closed for my schedule. Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Saturdays, and some Fridays are available to book. I am comfortable with whatever instructions you give me and what your preferences are whether it be letting them out in your yard, sitting down and hanging out with them, letting them sniff around, or taking them for a more structured walk.
About: Hi! I’m committed to treating your pet to a wonderful, fun, and safe time while you’re away. 🌸I am experienced with dogs, cats, horses, saltwater fish/coral, and rabbits. I work from home 9-5 with availability at lunch time for a drop-in daily, as well as evenings and some weekend availability when booked in advance. In the clients home, I’m mindful of keeping their property secured. I treat pets with respect and professionalism, and take care to keep their routine consistent with instructions.
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 12 (small and large). They bring me immense joy and happiness. I have extensive experience with giant breeds. I raised my Bull Mastiff, Barnaby, from a pup and rescued an English Mastiff named Shakespeare (200 lbs of pure love). I am diligent and reliable. I know what to look for as far as health and emergencies. Barnaby was plagued with severe allergies so I know all the tips and tricks to make them feel better. I am cautious, careful, and compassionate. Your fur baby will receive lots of love and attention. I left corporate healthcare after 15 years to pursue experiences that allow me to help a fellow neighbor and care for animals that bring me so much joy. I have the time your precious pet needs. Depending on your specific needs, we can ensure your pet is given the same type of care as when he/she is with you. If it’s walking for a specific amount of time, type of play you want encouraged, treats, cuddles, resting time, etc - we can definitely work out a care plan that you approve of. Everyone cares for their pets differently and I want your experience to be unique and personal to your family. I do live in a condo, so if your fur baby needs overnight care, with your permission, I would bring them to my dad’s house (where I would be staying) in Oak Lawn (1.5 miles from me). His house is bigger than my condo and has a 6ft privacy fence in the backyard that would be perfect for exercise and playtime. He is also an avid dog lover - no dogs currently in the home. Our beloved Shakespeare recently crossed over the rainbow bridge and we’d love the opportunity to care for your pet. There would be no lack of attention and love. If you would like to chat with him or see the home your fur baby would be sleeping at, that can be arranged. If you need in home services, I’d love to chat about your pets routine.

“I am so glad to have had the pleasure to meet Stefanie. I was in a real bind trying to find a last minute sitter for my dog Shelby. Although I was a bit nervous because my dog usually travels with me, Stefanie assured me that all would be OK. I left feeling totally comfortable and confident that I would be leaving Shelby in good hands. Except for a small hiccup in times, everything was GREAT!! I would definitely recommend and l, will for sure be using her again. Thanks Stefanie!!”

“I can’t say enough good things about Viktoria! I’m so thankful and grateful for how much love and care my Luna received from her! I’ve never felt good about leaving Luna with anyone the way I did with Viktoria. She reached out to me with updates daily, and even prior to take off on my flight she messaged just in time, and sent a video showing me how well Luna was doing. Just that reassurance before a long flight, was such a considerate and helpful thing! From day one through day 8, I was able to truly know Luna was having a wonderful staycation with her. Luna was treated with the best love and care, just like she does at home with us. Not only can you trust Viktoria to take care of your dog but she loves them like they’re her own… and you can’t ask for better! I highly recommend her to anyone! She is the best!! I’m so grateful we found her and will be using in the future anytime need be! Ten stars! ⭐️”
“Amber did such a wonderful job caring for my senior dog! She was incredibly attentive to all of the instructions I provided, including her medication schedule, feeding routine, and outdoor needs. She also sent thoughtful daily updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that my pup was in great hands, and I’m so grateful for the care and attention she provided. I would happily book with her again in the future!”
“Our husky got taken care of for a couple of days. We got daily updates and adorable pictures!!! He was actually pretty sad coming home since he really loved playing with the other dog that was there. We are planning to book here whenever we have a trip!”
“Susseth had availability over the holidays which was perfect! She took great care of my furbaby while I was away. Drop off and pick up was super convenient Definitely would recommend her.”
“Jim was great with Philip! He sent photos and kept me updated throughout the stay. Jim’s home is very clean and organized. He played with Philip in his backyard and even invited his dad’s dog over to keep my boy company. The two got along well! Will certainly book again! Book with Jim!”
“Many thanks to Phyllis and her husband for taking great care of our two dogs. They are great — very responsive, professional and loving! We look forward to seeing them at the end of the month when we are at a wedding!”
“Manuel is the best sitter I could have found for my dog. He took such good care of my corgi Kit, and kept me updated the whole time. He looked after his sensitive paws and made sure Kit was entertained. I really appreciate the social time with other dogs that Kit got during his stay. Manuel is very responsive, attentive, kind, and reliable. Thank you so much for looking after my pup for the holidays. Will definitely book with Manuel again the next time I’m out of town.”
“Ethel has cared for our Luna multiple times over the last year and we cannot say enough about how awesome Ethel is. Luna comes home happily exhausted after her fun stays with Ethel and Ethel’s dog Tutsi. Ethel provides plenty of photo and text updates while on their walks and visits to the dog park. She’s responsive to messages, and she’s flexible and accommodating for dropoff and pickup. Ethel is so incredibly kind, and we always know Luna is in good hands with her. We’re so grateful to have found Ethel and you will be, too.”
