Pet Sitting West Town

About: As a pet owner and fellow Rover user, I understand how important finding a reliable sitter for your fur baby is. I have provided sitting services to friends and family for years. I am also the owner of a medically complex dog and have experience with medication administration. As a nurse, my schedule allows for plenty of free time outside of the hospital as well as flexibility between week days and weekends off. I prefer to make minimal change to routines and living spaces. I am comfortable caring for pets with owner’s preference as a priority. I like to have a backup option for safety when normal living habits are not possible, such as crates or gates.

About: I’ve taken care of my own family’s dog and others for friends and family over the last 6 years, including walking, feeding, bathing, and just giving a little love! I am a new resident in Chicago very much missing my family and friends dogs back home. I work remotely, so I’m available for walks or drop-in visits most days of the week and sometimes on the weekends. My availability is usually updated on the calendar to reflect any weekends where I’m out of town or have full day commitments. Outside of those circumstances, I’m also available to board in my own apartment. I work remotely, so I’ll be home most of the day during the week to cuddle and play with your pup. On the weekends, I’m a bit more in and out, but I’ll adjust my schedule accordingly to be able to take them out at least 3 times per day or take them with me on adventures where possible! I do live on the third floor, so they’ll need to be okay with stairs or small enough to carry. I sadly don’t have any pets of my own, but that means no need to worry about interactions with other pets inside the home.

About: Since 2007, I have been dedicated to caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, and look after their beloved pets. My love for dogs is at the heart of everything I do. Currently, I work as a Software Engineer in Test during weekdays. Despite my professional commitments, my passion for dogs remains strong, and I enjoy spending my free time walking and caring for them. I understand that dogs require consistent attention, love, and care. When it comes to their well-being, I am highly attentive and committed to meeting their every need with dedication and compassion. I am currently working as a Software Engineer In Test during the weekdays. I love dogs and I am hoping to walk with dogs during some of my free time. I know dogs need contant attention and love. when it comes to caring for them, I am very attentive and provide them with every possible need.

“My cat was recovering from GI issues and I had to be out of town. Aaron was great and very communicative while I was traveling and was able to give meds as needed. Super grateful for his excellent care!”

About: Growing up with many types of dogs, from Labrador Retrievers to French Bulldogs, has given me a lifelong love of animals. I currently have a very active 2 year old French Bulldog, so I understand the importance of providing dogs with plenty of exercise and attention. I am familiar with the unique behaviors and needs of both puppies and adult dogs. I have completed several dog training classes that have given me a background in basic obedience training. I will make sure your dog is happy and well cared for while you are away! I am currently a graduate school student with a very open and flexible schedule. I can be available during working hours as well as weekends depending on your needs. I am happy to care for your dog in any way that you’re comfortable. I’m available to play with your dog at home or take them on walks.
