About: I have cared for animals ever since I can remember. I am a huge animal lover so I had/have a lot of different pets: Cats, dogs, a ferret, hamsters, lizards, and fish! I am going into junior year for college as a double major in Biology and Animal Ecology. I was involved in an animal training class for two semester where I helped/observed dog training. I was a Kennel Attendant for 3 months at an Animal Hospital, have interned there for 2 Summers, and am working as a veterinary assistant this Summer! I am working part time as a Veterinary Assistant Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays. I am volunteering at a Parrot pet store in the mornings on Wednesdays and Fridays. I’m available after 12 pm on Wednesdays and Fridays along with anytime on most Saturdays and Sundays! I am available for feeding, walking, and giving your pet lots of attention (if they seem ok with it)! And I will make sure to fulfill all of your pets needs.

“Scott has taken care of my cat twice now and does an excellent job. He feeds and spends time with Quinn and administers her insulin shots since she is diabetic. We are so thankful he takes such good care of our girl!”

About: I have 6 years of experience as a dog walker and sitter in Chicago. I’ve loved it since the moment I started and will almost never turn down an opportunity to take care of a furry friend! I can handle any breed or size of dog, and am very knowledgeable in dogs’ temperament. I’m experienced in handling multiple dogs at once on walks as well. I have taken care of all ages of dogs, aiding in puppy training to giving medications to senior dogs! I can handle almost anything asked and will always let you know if I’m not comfortable with a task asked of me. My number one priority is the well being and safety of every animal I meet! I’m currently on a very open schedule and have a lot of flexibility. I can work with almost any time as long as I am given advance notice. When caring for dogs outside of the home, I always have them leashed and will never do anything off leash. If a client has a suitable outdoor space I will let them off but always keep them strictly monitored. I know how important the bond between a pet and their owner is and I will do everything in my power to ensure the safety and well-being of your pet!

About: I have hands-on experience raising and caring for my own dog from puppyhood. As the primary dog walker and caregiver, I played a major role in his daily care, including potty training, teaching him his name, and training basic commands and tricks. This experience taught me patience, consistency, and how to understand a dog's behavior and needs at different stages of development. Because I helped care for and train a young puppy, I'm comfortable working with dogs that require extra attention, structure, and exercise. I understand the importance of maintaining routines, providing positive reinforcement, and ensuring pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. As an incoming pharmacy student at the University of Wisconsin–Madison, I'm also highly responsible, detail-oriented, and committed to following care instructions closely. I treat every pet as if they were my own and prioritize their safety, happiness, and well-being. As a college student currently on summer break, I have plenty of availability and flexibility to dedicate to pet care. This allows me to provide attentive care, accommodate a variety of schedules, and spend quality time with your pet rather than rushing between commitments. Whether your pet needs walks, drop-in visits, playtime, or companionship, I can provide reliable and consistent care throughout the week. Your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and specific needs so I can provide care that helps them feel comfortable and secure. During walks and visits, I stay attentive, follow all care instructions closely, and ensure pets are always in a safe environment. I also understand how important trust is when someone is caring for your pet, so I'll provide regular updates and photos to give you peace of mind while you're away. I treat every pet with the same care, patience, and attention that I give my own dog.

“Denis and Nikki are great. They came over at the scheduled times and made sure both dogs where attended to. The updates they sent with pictures and water / food breaks .... and potty times were defiantly appreciated. I will ask them again to watch our dogs and recommend them highly.”

About: As a child I’ve grown up with dogs. My grandfather cared for Black Russian terriers, and I helped him take care of new litters every summer. I’ve also had a cat all my childhood, who I loved so very much. I am well experienced with pet sitting for family friends, and have had experiences with dogs and cats of all sizes, big or small! I would be happy to help you care for your pet, I have recently graduated from UIUC. I am home for the summer so my schedule is very flexible! I am available to care during any time of day/night, so long as the details are communicated beforehand we should be great! I will cater to the pets and owners need however they see fit! If you would like a simple walk, and a refill of water and food that’s great, if you’d like me to keep your pet company that’s fine too!

About: I have cared for animals all my life, I work with both large and small dogs, as well as cats. In recent years I have also worked in elder care. I am a stay at home pet-sitter. I am available for boarding and dog-walking. I am available for day care as well. Available all day long. I have no pets of my own and I have no little kids. There is a backayrd, but it's not fenced. I have a possibility to take out your pet as often as needed.

“We have never left our dogs with someone before/had someone come over to do drop ins for our dogs, so I was hesitant on trusting a stranger. But at the meet and greet, I knew Sarah was going to be awesome! She was thorough with her questions, got a great understanding of the dogs, even asked questions I didn't think of! I felt our home and dogs were safe with her the entire weekend. She gained our trust instantly (which is not something that happens often)! The dogs loved her and had the best time with her!?”

About: Hi, I’m Zoë—a dedicated animal lover with 8 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and 2 years of experience as a veterinary assistant. My background allows me to provide both loving companionship and knowledgeable care, especially for pets with special medical or behavioral needs.
Over the past 8 years, I’ve worked with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments—from energetic puppies to senior dogs needing extra support. As a vet assistant, I’m trained in administering medications (including injections), monitoring health conditions, and providing post-surgical or special needs care. I’ve also worked closely with cats and have experience with basic training, crate familiarity, and leash walking.
Your pet’s well-being is always my top priority. I offer a safe, calm, and nurturing environment with plenty of affection, play, and enrichment. I send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident and connected while you're away. Whether your pet needs a jogging partner, a gentle companion, or specialized care, I’m here to help. Let’s schedule a meet-and-greet—I’d love to meet you and your pet! I currently work full time at a local animal hospital. I am available most days after 6:30pm to do evening walks and feedings & I am off 3 days a week which those days I can do morning and evening walks. I am unable to offer daycare of boarding at this time but I do offer house sitting and have 2 years experience for house sitting.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for over 8 years and truly love spending time with animals of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, play with, and care for their pets while they’re away. I’m very active, patient, and dependable, so whether your dog needs long walks and playtime or your senior pet needs a calmer, gentler approach, I’m happy to adapt to their needs. I understand how important pets are to families, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re gone. Pet care fits very naturally into my weekly routine because I have a flexible schedule and genuinely enjoy staying active and spending time with animals. I’m available on weekends and most weekdays, especially afternoons and evenings. I enjoy going on walks, being outdoors, and giving pets plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. I’m also reliable with feeding schedules, bathroom breaks, medications if needed, and keeping owners updated with photos and messages so they know their pets are doing well. Creating a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment for pets is very important to me. In a client’s home, I make sure to follow all routines closely so pets feel secure and relaxed in their familiar space. I pay close attention to instructions regarding feeding, medications, walks, crate training, and any special needs or behaviors. I’m patient, attentive, and always prioritize safety during walks, playtime, and interactions with other animals. My goal is to make every pet feel loved, comfortable, and cared for as if they were my own.

“Kelsey is great! I love getting my picture updates during the day with our pup loving Kelsey’s visit!”
