Personalized care for your dog or cat - Elmhurst

“Rachel was great! And Heidi was happy while with her despite never meeting Rachel before. It warmed my heart to see her at pickup go back and forth between Rachel and our family for hugs and pets.”

“Alli was a big help with Zoey! She made her feel right at home with her time, care and attention :) We had great communication and she was very flexible when we made a few changes due to our travel plans.”

“It was pretty daunting leaving my dogs with someone I had never met. My Boxer has separation anxiety so bad she got severe colitis last time I had to travel, so I knew a kennel setting would not be good for her. Getting pictures of the dogs completely relaxed and comfortable put my fears at rest almost immediately! Katie took excellent care of the dogs and took care on my worries as well! I would recommend her without hesitation :)”

“Melissa is a true saint! My family was on a 2.5 week road trip with our 11 month old Akita puppy, Frida, when we decided to make a stop a the Great Blue Heron festival in Sherman, NY. Being on the road and leaving our puppy with a stranger seemed intimidating, especially considering her shy nature, but Melissa was great! Frida was very reserved with Melissa at first, but eventually warmed up. Melissa sent pictures and videos that showed she was having a great time. She went above and beyond to make sure Frida had access to activities that she enjoyed and even set up play dates with other young dogs. I am so so grateful we found Melissa and we were able to leave our pup with someone who put so much love and care into her time with Frida.”

About: Hello! I am a Lab and Dalmatian mom. I have experience dog sitting lots of dogs from cavaliers to Bernese mountain dogs. I am a lover of all kinds of dogs. I will love and spoil your baby/babies while you are away. I’m currently working part-time, so I’ll have lots of time to play with your baby/babies. I’m available for boarding, sitting, or walking any day of the week. I have a fenced yard and three friendly dogs to keep your baby/babies company while you’re away. I can easily crate your dog if needed too. I’ll leave that up to you.

About: Well I am sure everyone on this pawesome app is an avid animal lover, so what sets me apart from the rest? I am an animal enthusiast with many years of various experience under my belt. After growing up a child who loved all creatures and filled her time with animal drawings and paintings, in college I decided to become a certified Puppy Raiser through Guiding Eyes for the Blind, a non-profit internationally accredited guide dog school. It is not a title given out to anyone, I completed the required education and am recognized as a trainer. I have raised/trained a total of one guide dog candidate named Jester. I had him for a total of 14 months. During my experience, I was responsible for all of his health, exercise, food, education and happiness. I also participated in puppy-swaps with other dogs in the program and sometimes I took care of multiple dogs at once. I plan on raising many guide dogs in my future! This program gave me a lot of experience with crate training/acceptance for puppies along with basic obedience skills, and house manners all acquired using positive reinforcement and "puppy parties". You can trust me to take the best care of your dog and well as instill manners with training methods similar to guide dog education. I have always been around dogs and I pride myself in knowing how to adjust to their needs. On the opposite end of the spectrum, I have a lot of experience with older, "geriatric" dogs. My first dog I ever adopted was 12 years old! I know how to keep them comfortable and monitor them carefully while you are away. I previously worked at a small animal veterinary hospital for 5 years, which gave me plenty of experience around all types of animals. I was responsible for all of their needs while they stayed at the hospital; including medicating and and monitoring after a long stay or surgery. I took pride in myself with my ability to keep them clean, safe, healthy, and happy. This position also gave me crucial experience in emergency medicine along with proper judgment when it comes to sick or injured animals.

“Nina is Wonderful to work with. Made the process very easy and comfortable for us. I’d recommend completely!”

“Phoebe took great care of my pups. This was Bea's first time away from home post adoption, and she did really well. Phoebe sent me updates and photos every day, and responded really quickly to any message I sent. I will leave my dogs with Phoebe again soon, and already suggested her to a few friends.”

About: I've been caring for animals my entire life and truly treat every pet like family. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and personalities, as well as cats, and I'm comfortable with feeding, administering medications if needed, walks, playtime, and giving plenty of love and attention. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to know your furry family member is safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away. I currently have a 1 year old Labradoodle, a 12 year old Golden Retriever and a cat, so I'm used to managing different pet needs and routines. Whether your pet is energetic and loves to play or prefers quiet cuddles and companionship, I'll make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I'm dependable, attentive, and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy peace of mind while you're away. My goal is to make your pet feel at home and give them the same care I'd want for my own. I currently stay at home with my 11 and 9 year old for the summer but am a nurse by trade and work remotely and sometimes as a private caregiver. My schedule is very flexible 🙂 I have a 2 acre lot with lots of room to run. I use a wireless fence. All of my animals and extremely friendly and love other animals
