Dog Sitting Waukegan

“Kathy and Edward were so helpful with my senior cat while I had to go out of town for a funeral. I was so relieved they took great care of him and even gave him his medication and played with him. Wonderful service!”

“Katy is super! My pup Kia really gets along with her. She is kind and helpful and communicates well. She writes me long blurbs about her time with Kia which I love since I’m not able to be with her throughout the day.”

About: My schedule allows me to be there for your pet as often as needed, which is exactly what I love to do! I grew up taking care of our golden retriever who lived to be almost 17.5 years old! I’m an avid dog lover and treat them like family. I’m confident I will be able to ease your pet while you’re away and make them feel at home. Look forward to connecting with you! 🐶 Currently working from home full time and can accommodate your pets’ full time needs. Looking forward to spending quality time with your furry friend and taking lots of walks! Live in an apartment and take dogs out regularly for potty breaks and sniff times/ball throwing, whatever needs they may have. I ensure a safe household, and will also treat your household with respect if housesitting. Have several years of housesitting experience, also.

About: I’ve grown up with pets my whole life and have done sitting on the side for family and friends. I have raised my dogs from puppies to now they are 15 and 10 I also got a kitten about a year ago and she’s been enjoying the ride ever since! I am currently in college. I am planning on getting another part time job so I will be sure to communicate with my clients the schedule for that. I take care of my own pets everyday and would love to add yours too. I have grown up with animals my whole life so their routine is my routine. I believe that we owe it to our pets to make sure their needs are met and that they are happy.

About: I have been pet sitting cats and dogs for over 10 years. As my family as always been animal lovers, taking care of furry friends comes naturally to me. I love getting to help others while spending time with and caring for their pets. I am a substitute teacher and freelance creative, so I have a lot of freedom to build my own schedule - I usually build it weekly. This allows me to create the best possible schedule for my clients and myself. When I enter someone’s home to care for a pet, I have the utmost respect and care for a clients belongings and spaces. On a walk, I focus on making sure the dog is safe & being aware of our surroundings and having a good time enjoying the fresh air.

“Jahaira is super on top of everything and makes travel easy - so glad to have found her! She has watched our guinea pigs multiple times and goes above and beyond to make sure they are happy & healthy. Would highly recommend to anyone who wants to rest assured that their pets are in caring hands.”

About: I’ve taken care of and loved dogs and cats of all ages and sizes. From puppies/kittens to seniors and in between. And all sizes! I also have experience with special needs dogs, including my own collie who had lower jaw removal surgery. I’ve had 2 cats in this time from when they were young to seniors. I recently adopted 2 young cats who love people. For dogs, I’ve adopted dogs of all different ages with various health needs. I only occasionally go into the office and work from home Mon - Fri. I’m used to having multiple animals so I’m comfortable with whatever their schedule may need. I want to follow the routine you have created and anything else to make sure they feel comfortable in my home or yours. They will get lots of love and attention from me during our time together!

“Can’t recommend Krystal enough! Really won’t use any other pet sitter at this point. She does such a fantastic job with our cats, one in particular who is less friendly. 100/10 experience everytime truly”

About: I have had dogs all my life. I enjoy helping walk, groom and play with them so they can relax and nap by the fireplace. I have trained puppies and also have had senior dogs too as well as meds admin also. I work from home so dogs are vital to me and they make me feel so happy. I love them and they love me so it is a win win. It is nice to be popular too with my K9s as they enjoy my big fenced in yard too which we love to run around in and play all day. I follow directions given to me and listen to the owners as they know their baby best. Other than that I give the dogs all my love and attention.

“I have a medically fragile senior cat who requires injectable medication. Diane was professional, easy to deal with and listened to instructions. She gave exceptional care to my cat and sent detailed updates. I will be booking her again and would recommend her to others!”

About: I’ve always loved animals and have had 4 of my own. For the past two years I worked in a dog grooming salon so I’ve worked professionally with dogs and know how to take care of them pretty well. I’m working a part time job right now so my schedule usually depends one the day. I’m usually free after 4 on the weekdays and free on the weekends it just depends on the day. I have a fenced backyard so they won’t be able to get out and if i’m at a clients home i’ll watch them extra closely.

About: Hello, pet parents! Your pup is in for a treat! I enjoy going on adventures! We check out state parks, forest preserves and beaches during our time together. I take lots and lots of photos to help capture the magic and share the fun with you. Of course for pets with more of a relaxed temperament, cuddles, belly rubs and more low key quality time is also greatly enjoyed. I look forward to spending time with your pup! I work from 9am-5pm, 5 days a week, so any time I'm not at work, your pet receives my undivided attention and care. I'm very detail oriented and tidy. What ever your dogs routine is, I'll adapt. I'm also a neat freak so I do a great job of leaving your place cleaner than you left it.

“My brother had surgery and we needed a daily drop in for his elderly cat asap. Emily was able to start right away. She did a great job. We will use her services in the future.”

About: I’ve spent a majority of my life around animals. Growing up, we had a variety in the house (dogs, cats, fish, squirrels). I’ve learned that being calm, loving, and patient is the key to dealing with any pet. Like people, pets have their own quirks and personalities that is an absolute joy to learn about! I currently assist my sister with her two boys. Now that they are both in school, my schedule is much more open. I help get them to school early in the morning, and help pick them up in the afternoon. I have no problem helping with specialty pet needs and care, whether that be crating, medications, or assisted devices. Your pets are in great hands :)

About: I am very reliable, dependable, and responsible. I do have experience with animals growing up with a dog, geckos, hamsters, cats you name it! I have a full time job during week days. I would make sure when taking care of your pet that he or she is safe and comfortable with the environment they can are in. I hope to be a perfect match for you and your pet! Weekly routines would be caring for animals before 6:30am and then again after 6:30pm on weekdays. I work full time during the weekdays. Weekends I have full availability. I don’t do boarding at my home due to having 3 dogs. When going to your home I make sure the animals are cared for, fed, taken out, given the comfort and love they need.

“Stephanie was great! She took great care of our little princess while we were at work. Definitely booking with her again. ♡ thank you Steph! Sophie loves you ◡̈”

About: I am DEFINITELY an animal person! I live a very active lifestyle so I am more than happy to go out and play with your pets, but also just as satisfied relaxing and cuddling! I have had dogs my entire life and think they truly are a mans' best friend. Growing up, I have taken care of the two dogs I have had (maltese and pitbull) a lot, as my parents have gone out of town for work. I have dog- and cat-sat on and off over the past 6 years so am very comfortable. I currently work remotely, so I have loads of flexibility to care for your pet! I enjoy being active so am more than happy to take the time to care for your pet! I take great pride in caring for your pet in your home! I am very respectful to the household, owners, and animals and am very tidy and follow the directions from the owners.

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by animals, thanks to my dad owning a small veterinary clinic. I’ve worked at a vet clinic for several years during high school, gaining hands-on experience and learning to care for pets of all kinds. Being the youngest in my family, I’ve always been known as the most compassionate when it comes to animals. Whether it’s walking or sitting, your furry friend will be in loving, experienced hands with me! Book now for personalized care that puts your pet first! I currently have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability, allowing me to accommodate different pet care needs, including walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. I enjoy spending time with animals and am happy to work with pet owners to maintain their pets' daily routines and ensure they receive attentive, loving care. I’d be happy to do drop-in visits, house/pet sitting, and dog walking. I would ask for a schedule/routine that your pets are used to and so I can ensure your pets to be comfortable as possible!

About: I've been watching dogs for family and family friends for 15 years now, before I could drive myself. I've watched many dogs with special raw Diets, and dogs that have needed insulin shots. I have never encountered a scenario I couldn't handle. I'm working full-time, but have great hours, and would spend most of my time with the animals. I'm around and available all weekends. My wife and I spend most of our time home on weekends. I have a fenced in yard and 3 dogs of my own. All of which are really friendly. We often have family member's pets over to visit. I also stay at others homes, as that is normally where animals are most familiar and feel the most safe!

About: I've been a lifelong dog lover and currently have a Golden Retriever/Irish Setter who keeps me active with plenty of walks, playtime, and adventures. Caring for my own high energy dog has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and giving each dog the attention they deserve. Whether your pup loves long walks, belly rubs, fetch, or simply having a companion nearby, I'll make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. I treat every dog as if they were my own and strive to provide the same level of care and affection I'd want for my own pet :) I currently work part-time on some weekends in Huntley, IL (Friday–Sunday), but I’m generally very flexible and available during the week! I just ask for a few days’ notice whenever possible so I can make sure I’m able to give your pet the time and attention they deserve. 😊 I’d also love to set up a meet & greet with you and your fur baby before our first visit! It’s a great opportunity for us to get acquainted, learn about your pet’s personality and routine, and make sure they feel comfortable with me. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. While I do have a spacious corner lot with a secure tie-out area for supervised outdoor time, the majority of my services take place in your home where your pet is most comfortable and can maintain their normal routine. During walks and drop-in visits, I'll follow all care instructions closely, ensure your pet has fresh water, exercise, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention. I'll treat both your pet and your home with the same respect and care that I would my own, and I'll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident knowing your furry family member is in good hands.
