At Chicago Pet Sitters, I pride myself on being a dedicated pet care professional with years of experience serving a variety of beloved animals, including dogs, cats, chickens, ferrets, gerbils, guinea pigs, lizards, rabbits, rats, and turtles. My passion for animals is backed by several recognized certifications, including American Red Cross Pet First Aid and CPR, as well as certifications from Pet Sitters International (PSI) and the International Association of Canine Professionals (IACP). Being bonded and insured, you can rest assured that your furry, scaly, or feathered family members are in safe hands.

I cater to pets of all sizes, from those under 20 lbs to those over 80 lbs, and I have been serving the pet-loving community since 2019. Additionally, I offer flexible online sessions for consultations, making it easier for you to connect with me and discuss your pet's needs from the comfort of your home.

How did you hone your craft?
Dana started Chicago Pet Sitters in 2005. At that time, she was working for a magazine out of New York, and had just hired her first dog walking company to care for her own dog. It didn’t take long to figure out that she wanted to focus on spending more time with her pup and saw an opportunity for quality pet care. After a year and a half of essentially working out of her car, she quit her editing job and became a full-time dog walker for Chicago Pet Sitters. Soon after, she hired her first employee, and the rest, as they say, is history.
