Kim took great care of my sick boys. Good communication and pics while we were away. We came home to happy pups, and I'll happily rebook Kim in the future.

About: I’ve worked at a vet clinic for over two years, I know how to administer medication. I’m good at handling dogs and having fun and playing with toys. My schedule is pretty open, so I have plenty of time to play with the animals and take care of their needs and I’m available to take care of the animals just about whenever it’s needed. I can work with just about anything if your dog needs to be crated I can crate them take them for walks or play with them in the backyard if the space allows. Housesitting only at clients place.

I’ve used Jessika’s services a few times now and she’s always been so amazing with my boys. I genuinely get sad when she’s not available to watch them because they just adore her and are so comfortable with her. She gives them lots of attention and leaves very helpful visit notes so I know exactly what’s going on when I’m gone. I highly highly recommend her for anyone who needs a pet sitter!

Sunshine and her children took wonderful care of Leila. I enjoyed all the pictures she provided us of playtime and cuddle time. Sunshine was dependable and communicated with us every visit. She allowed us to have a stress free vacation. I would definitely recommend her for your fur baby. Thank Sunshine!!!!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was young. I still have both of my childhood dogs, Piper and scout. And I’ve helped my friends and family with their pets sense I was about 10! I currently work three days a week, and fortunately I get out of school at 11am everyday so I have plenty of time fluffy friends! I’ve lived my whole life with two fur babies so I’m well trained! I’m always down for a walk or a quick check in to snuggle and take care of your pets!

About: I’ve cared for a variety of pets of all ages, from energetic puppies to independent cats. I am comfortable caring for senior pets, ensuring they get the proper attention and care they need- as long as instructions can be provided to maintain routines and medical needs. I treat every pet as if they were my own, providing gentle care, companionship, and a safe environment. Wether it’s keeping up with a puppy, a shy cat, or providing extra comfort for an aging pet, I would be honored to be trusted with your furry family members. I currently am a full time Software Engineering student at Loyola University! Currently, most of my coursework is online other than Tuesdays and Thursdays. This limits my availability on those days for additional pet care. My flexible online schedule allows me to dedicate plenty of time to care for pets throughout the week, ensuring they receive attention and care they deserve. I can easily accommodate feeding schedules, playtimes, and check-ins, making pet care a natural and enjoyable part of my routine. I provide a safe, comfortable, and pet-friendly environment for all animals in my care. My home has a large yard with fencing where I can comfortably walk one’s pet outdoors while remaining safe. I have two cats and one dog in the home, so I do carefully manage introductions and limit interactions if needed to ensure all pets are comfortable. For dogs, I can crate or pen if needed, providing them with personal space, or allow them to roam safely on a leash outside while ensuring they are well cared for inside. For cats, I prioritize an stress-free environment, providing personal space and ensuring quiet areas to retreat to. I understand feline body languages and can understand shy, playful, or independent cats to ensure their comfort.

About: My family used to own 7 dogs when I was a preteen! 6 were chihuahuas and one was a pit bull, so I feel comfortable with any dog size. I would feed, walk, wash, and play with them. Now, I help my friends with their dogs whenever it’s needed. I know when they need space and when they want to be playful. I have a lots of energy, so I can ply with your pup for a long time! I’m a full-time student and work part-time for two days a week, but it only takes up in the morning. On any day of the week, I am available at any time after 4pm, and before 11am except on Tuesdays, Fridays, and Sundays. I’m always observing, partially because of admiration, but also watching out for any signs of discomfort. I can recognize when they need space, are uncomfortable, anxious, or threatened. I’m cautious when it comes to interactions while walking and will walk across the other side of the street from another dog for precaution.

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: I am a big animal lover. I plan on treating and taking care of your sweet fur baby as if he or she or they are mine because that how I would want someone to take care of my fur babies. I understand the worries leaving them with a pet sitter because I am a pet owner and have had a lot of anxiety leaving my pet with a person even if it a person I know and trust. I can provide special care if needed I had blind fur babies before as well have had a lot of senior and puppies that needed a lot of attention , care and love. I have two shih-tzu one young (Gerber) and one senior( Toby). I require all pets be up to date with shots as well flea treated. I currently have a part time and only work about 2days a week. If that. Due to working short hours and day I am blessed being able to be home most of the time with my own dogs. As well be able to have this side hustle of taking care of people fur kids. I have a fenced back yard and currently saving for the fenced in front yard. I actually have a double fenced back yard section to help to get my own pets safe. I did it because I find my big back yard great for exercise and play time but I love having a decent side section double fence just for sense of security.

About: I have a love for animals, if you're thinking I'm sure everyone says that but for me it's so true. Not only do I love caring for pets. I've even helped my neighborhood with feral cats and getting them the help the deserve. Look up on Facebook Winthrop Harbor Wild Cats! What does that mean for you? I'm passionate about caring for animals means I will love on and treat your special friend just as you would! My work is flexible and mostly at home. I like to go on walks daily which would fit perfectly for any pup looking for exercise! We have a large yard for easy potty breaks. I have two young children that wear out anyone willing to play. We have a medium crate if needed and a full basement with playroom.

Abby did a great job checking in for our two cats during a long trip. Both cats were very happy and healthy during that time and we were so pleased to see them relaxed when we got home from our trip. It really made us feel good to know that our babies were the best of care! Highly recommend Abby!
