Pet Sitting West Chicago

About: I love dogs! I enjoy walking dogs and meeting new dogs. They are such sweet animals and I love to be able to help them see and explore the world on walks. I take care of a 14 year old beagle and go on frequent walks with him. I can walk dogs during my lunch break on weekdays. I can also come in the late afternoon as well to walk your dog. Let me know what you need and I can help accommodate your schedule! I have a beagle that I adore and take him on 3 walks a day. I love walking dogs and meeting new dogs at the dog parks that I visit. I also love taking care of friends dogs and would love to take care of your dog as well!

“Grace was AMAZING and is so knowledgeable about dogs and their unique needs. She was so patient and knew exactly how to get our dog with bad anxiety more comfortable. We really appreciate her help and the updates during the drop- in visit.”

About: I have always had animals and I have a genuine love for animals of all kinds. Spending time with pets doesn’t feel like a job to me — it’s something I truly enjoy. I’m naturally attentive, gentle, and patient, and I take the responsibility of caring for someone’s pet very seriously. My job is flexible so I have the time and availability to assist with whatever your needs are. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routines, and needs. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or shy and needing a calm presence, I adapt to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m reliable, organized, and committed to following your instructions closely so your pet’s routine stays consistent while you’re away. You can count on me to provide regular updates and photos, so you always feel connected and reassured. My goal is simple: to treat your pet with the same kindness, attention, and respect that I would want for my own. I would love the opportunity to earn your trust and care for your furry family member. I'm currently working part time so I have plenty of time to devote to your babies! My schedule allows me to fully devote myself to whatever instructions you leave, even if it's time consuming. I will love and enjoy every minute of interacting with and loving on your pet(s). When caring for pets in your home, I am respectful, responsible, and detail-oriented. I follow your pet’s routine exactly as instructed to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I make sure your home remains clean and secure, double-checking doors and gates each visit. I pay close attention to your pet’s behavior and well-being, and I communicate regularly with updates and photos so you always feel confident and informed. My goal is to provide safe, reliable care you can truly trust.

“First time using rover for drop in visits and was a bit anxious to have someone in my apartment, but everything went perfectly. I got photos of my kitty playing every day and came home to her having full food and water + key where discussed.”

“Isabella was great with both my small dog and frisky cat. She gave each of them plenty of attention and paid attention to their quirky personalities. She was very conscientious and included in her notes each visit, her observations about my house including noting a small ant infestation which I appreciated!”

Beth H.

“Vivian was fantastic. Her communication was great and her care level for my animals was genuine. She was prompt and was willing to go above and beyond. I will definitely use her again in the future!”

Colin M.

“Mary is such a blessing. Our pups are always well taken care of, and she is great at reading interactions between them and other dogs. She is truly like no other.”

About: Growing up in a cat family, I’ve been loving and caring for cats my whole life! While learning how to write cursive in school, I was learning to scoop cat litter at home. Friends and family have relied on me to check in on their cats daily during their trips, and do everything to make sure the kitties have everything they need as well as keeping them company. I also have experience caring for and walking friends’ and families’ pups. As a college student in the city, I’m super familiar with the area! I’m off for the summer and ready to take on some work with Chicago’s lovely pets. I am very familiar with meeting new cats and dogs- adjusting my behavior based on the animal’s level of comfort with me. I’m super patient and love to spend time caring for (and playing with) the best fluffballs!!

About: I’ve helped take care of dogs my entire life! I took care of my childhood black labs, and still help my parents take care of their 11 year old ACD when they’re out of town. I have a one year old Shepherd mix that I’ve had since she was 3 months old. She recently received her AKC Star Puppy certification! I have experience working with young dogs and old and I’d love to help you out! I’m currently on my summer break so I have flexible availability during the summer months! During the fall and winter I can help you out on the weekends! I take my dog on daily walks and adventures around us. Since we don’t have a yard to play in we like to go to Sniffspots to play around by ourselves or with some friends. I always make sure to keep my dog on a leash if we are not in an enclosed area.

“Kristy did an outstanding job taking care of my two cats. One requires administering a pill and she managed it well including cleaning up their occasional mess. Thanks Kristy!”

“Paula did a great job with our two babies. We loved that she came onboard at the very last minute to help us. I tipped her, in gratitude, at the beginning. She’s terrific!!”

Marge U.

“Victoria was great! She kept us in full communication, sent videos, and helped us navigate through our new puppy’s shyness. She’s very easy to work with and would recommend her to anyone”

About: I started dog sittng in college for my professors and quickly grew to love it. I've gained experience walking, feeding, and caring for dogs, and I bring these skills to my own pets as well. I'm excited to provide the same care and attention to your dog while you're away. I work from home, so my schedule is flexible and I can accomodate your need. I also offer pickup and drop-off services for a small fee. I have a fenced yard providing a secured space for your dog to play and relax. I also have a senior male Australian Shedperd who loves to play with other dogs, so your pet will have a friendly companion during the stay.

“Cristina took excellent care of our dog and two cats over a weekend. She communicated after every visit and gave our pets lots of love. I highly recommend Christina as a pet sitter!”

Suzanne P.

“She did a great job with my dogs Sutton and Chaz for weekend drop-ins! I honestly don’t know how she managed to walk both of them together, because Sutton can be a terrible walker, but I came home to two very happy dogs. Everything was taken care of, and it was such a relief knowing they were in good hands. I’d definitely recommend her!”

Maddie C.

“Kassandra took excellent care of my kittens while I was out of town. I will definitely contact her should I need someone to care for them again.”

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life, and I’ve spent years caring for family and friends’ dogs while also attending dog training classes to better understand their needs and behavior. As the proud owner of two very spoiled cats, I know how important it is to find someone you can trust, and I will care for your pets with the same love, attention, and reliability I give my own. I currently work full-time (9-5) which gives me flexibility to perform pet care before and after work, as well as the weekends! I have my own car so transportation is never a problem I am very comfortable caring for pets in the home and love to take dogs on walks. I have experience with most domesticated animals and am willing to learn how yours wants to be cared for.

About: Every animal I meet becomes family and will always be treated and loved that way. Volunteered at many shelters to help train and socialize dogs. I am even more familiar with cats and how to care for them! I am a stay at home mom and have open availability if your pet and you are comfortable with your pet around a child. I understand completely the importance of security with animals so if you are unsure or prefer not, I will be fully available fridays- mondays all day, then can workout a schedule on Tuesday - Thursday! I have 4 cats and 2 dogs at home that I have personally and trained and care for daily. Also a 75 gallon fish tank with fish and snails! I have a fenced in yard and all my rooms have baby gates so pets can’t get out of sight! I am reliable and will show up for your pet and their schedule. I have knowledge and daily experience with animals that need medicine or special care.

About: TLDR; I treat every pet like the main character. I lost my furbaby to kidney disease in July 2025 and it was absolutely life-shattering. I was so connected to her that she meant the world to me. While I'm not ready for another dog to fulfill my life, I'm ready to open my heart and home to care for your pet. I currently have 2 senior cats in my home. I’ve cared for family members’ dogs and cats over the years, from energetic puppies to calm senior pets. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, administering basic medications, enrichment activities, and giving an abundance of affection. Your furbaby gets my full attention and a warm, peaceful home environment. I’m patient, safety-focused, and great at picking up on a pet’s personality—whether they want playtime, snuggles, or a little space. I’ll keep you updated with photos and notes so you feel confident and connected while you’re away. If you think we'd be a good fit, let's chat! I have an open and flexible schedule, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m able to give pets attention, regular outdoor time, and consistent routines throughout the day. In my home, I focus on creating a calm, comfortable, and safe space. I stick closely to your furbaby's usual routines—feeding, walks, playtime, and rest—so they feel at ease during their stay. I keep a tidy environment with a securely fenced yard for safe outdoor time, and I make sure they always have fresh water, cozy spots to relax, and plenty of attention.
