Personalized care for your dog or cat - Evanston

“Outstanding experience with Katherine! She and her lovely family took excellent care of our two dogs while we were on a trip. We were delayed in our return and Katherine was extremely accommodating . The dogs had constant attention and care, so much that the dogs weren’t ready to leave. Normally they can’t wait to leave when we pick them up, but this time they didn’t want to go. I can’t say enough good things about our experience. Highly recommended!”

About: I've grown up around dogs and even helped train my mom's service dog. I am comfortable with cats, but I have a mild allergy, so I have never owned one. I've had small and large dogs, and I know how to handle both! I was a caregiver for a family friend's dogs for a few years, and it was amazing! I've also interned at a veterinary clinic, so I've worked with many different breeds of dogs and cats. I'm currently home from college for the summer, so my schedule is pretty free! I'm looking at part-time jobs, but if I get enough clients here, there will be no need. Either way, I am willing to be as flexible as possible with anyone who selects my services. I am great at reading animal behavior, and will pick up on cues your animal gives me so that I can make sure they are more comfortable! I have only ever rescued dogs, so I am used to handling fearful dogs, and I have no problem giving them space! I will follow all specific instructions about feeding and potty times to ensure that both you and your pet have the best experience I can provide.

“This was are first experience using rover so we were unsure what to expect but it proved to be a pleasant experience. We can not say enough good things about Samantha. She went way beyound just the normal pet care. Our cat is very shy but Samantha easily made friends with her and played with her. Hope she is available next time we need a pet setter.”

About: I’ve had cats in my life for over 20+years. A must is to give them the space and security they need, before getting acquainted. Follow any care routines, food, playtime, walks (permitting that they take walks), and litter clean-up..plus any medical needs that are required.

About: I’ve grown up with cats my whole life and currently have cats of my own, so caring for them comes very naturally to me. I have experience with both kittens and senior cats, and one thing I really understand is how important routine and trust are for cats to feel safe and comfortable. I’m very patient, organized, and attentive, and I truly love getting to know each cat’s personality. I also volunteer regularly at animal shelters, which has given me experience working with animals of all different temperaments — from very social and playful to shy or anxious pets who need a little extra patience and gentleness. I’m the type of person who stops to say hi to stray cats anytime I see them, so being around cats genuinely brings me so much joy. As a student and theater person, I’m very responsible with my time and communication, and I’ll always treat your home and pets with care and respect. My goal is for both you and your cat to feel completely comfortable with me and know they’re being cared for with lots of love and attention.

About: I love caring for dogs and cats! From puppy training to dealing with senior dog issues I’ve had plenty of experience with both and everything in between. I started dog sitting my neighbors dogs when they would go out of town and have since continued plus added a few more neighbors in the years. I love walking dogs and giving them exercise and being able to just enjoy the outdoors. I’m a stay at home mom so I am extremely flexible. Super flexible with requests and availability In and around Evanston. Can usually accommodate most needs! I have a large fenced in yard. Friendly, quiet neighborhood. Very open concept home so plenty of space for animals to have their space but also be able to see everything and everyone

About: I've taken care of a variety of pets since I was little and have many years of experience. I'm currently a dog, cat, and turtle mom and would love to take care of your pets, too! I also have experience with high energy dogs, seniors, puppies, and giving medication. I have a flexible work schedule so I have a wide availability to take care of your pets. I am also available without much notice for last-minute requests. I have a fenced in yard with space for your pet to play if they are at my house. I can also take them for leashed walks around the neighborhood or to a particular area if requested.
