“No complaints! Still managed to get our dogs walked even with a broken finger! Loved the daily pics and updates. Was always on time. Would love to work with her again.”
2. Katerina L.
About: My household has been full of animals for as long as I can remember. I am currently a cat mom and co-owner of a parakeet, three sea frogs, and a kitten. I am an active volunteer in animal shelters as well and will take any opportunity to care for the animals around me. I am very caring and detail-oriented and will make sure your furry friend feels safe and loved in your absence. I am working part-time so I have a lot of flexibility to come check in on your pets as needed. I am flexible with traveling around Chicago as well so coming by will not be an inconvenience to me. I will send many update photos of how your furry friends are doing. I have cared for a wide variety of animals in my life (seriously almost everything), so I am comfortable with feeding and cleaning routines, as well as just fun activities for them. I am also comfortable with any medications that a pet would need to be administered.

“Kai is a caring and thoughtful pet sitter. Both my dogs have serious medical issues and Kai was able to provide loving and responsible attention to both of them. One is blind and the other had neurologic symptoms that required special medication and instructions. I felt completely confident leaving my dogs with Kai. I highly recommend Kai to any pet parent looking for a great sitter!”
12. Grace T.
“Grace is an exceptional pet caregiver whom I recommend to anyone seeking a responsible and loving care for their furry friends. Grace has a unique ability to create a connection with any pet. I witnessed Grace's care firsthand when she helped me pet-sit a friend's cat. Not only did she ensure the cat's basic needs were met, but she also made time to play with the cat and give her lots of attention. Grace's responsible nature and genuine love for animals make her a great choice for anyone in need of a trustworthy pet caregiver.”

19. Bola A.
“Mother-in-law said Stella LOVED Bola and was so excited for all her walks!! The only thing she would change to make this a 5 start rating was the inconsistancy of arrival time and lack of communication in regards to being late. Overall, amazing service!! We look forward to working with Bola again in the near future!!”
20. Sebastian M.
“I was referred to Sebastian by another friend and have used his pet sitting and walking services numerous times. Both my Australian Shepherd, Koa and I wouldn't want anyone else to take care of him when I'm out of town. I appreciate his attention to my pup, the love, connection and the adventures they experience together. Sebastian is like an extension of our little family. He's also extremely knowledgeable about the well being of dogs and cats alike. I highly recommend seeking him out to take care of your little fur baby!!”
