I have owned both cats and dogs and have been an animal lover since I can remember. I owned a Lab/Basset Hound mix for her whole life and raised and trained from a puppy to an adult dog. I also owned a cat for many years. I have experience walking dogs as well as dog sitting for friends and neighbors on vacation.

I am open to dog sitting and dog walking for owners in the Lakeview/Lincoln Park area! I grew up with 3 Great Pyrenees since I was a toddler, so I am very used to large breeds. I love dogs and am strong enough to handle more than 1! However, I am allergic to cats so households with only dogs is ideal.
