Tina’s Bio
Hi! I'd do everything to keep your pets safe, healthy & happy. Had pets my entire life & very experienced w/house pets (dogs, cats, birds, rabbits, etc). Received American Red Cross CPR/1st Aid Certification for Dogs & Cats on 4-6-13. I'm Fed, Multi-State & Multi-County background ck'd. This is my Full-time business, with NO employees & do ALL work myself.
Sittercity upgraded website Nov 9, 2013 & they no longer allow a pay rate "range". I put rates below, as had to put a "#". Visits/walks range $10-$30-depending on factors like: Location, time involved, # pets, etc. & fair for both parties. Service includes "Basics" + advanced medical skills, "house sitting" & tailored to individual needs. Even Over-night care, if needed.
Cared for my almost 18 yr old dog, a Sheltie named Megan (in picture w/me), w/special needs as a geriatric dog. I've often watched multiple dogs at once & I'm proficient @ dispensing medications.
I'm an educated, mature, married woman, have my own car, have 5 cats of our own & a staunch NON-smoker. Hold a B.S. degree (U of IL -Champaign-Urbana) & a Paralegal in CA. First 2 yrs at U of IL were in Vet classes, until changed my major.
I respect client's privacy, take my responsibilities seriously, do what I say I'm going to do & have never missed a visit. I leave with doors secured (As have a security background, also).
I've a completely clean DMV, criminal, & credit history. I volunteer for: DuPage Cty, w/ juveniles & Will County's CERT team (Community Emergency Response Team)-requiring background ck'd via Fed. FEMA & Homeland Security-FAR exceeding site cks. I'm honest, reliable, observant & compassionate.
References from extremely satisfied clients are available, even if not connected via this site. They have given permission & offered for me to give out their name/ph #, upon request.
I provide a written progress report, so feedback would be given about each visit. Would be happy to feed/water & exercise pets, as appropriate for the species & give them loving TLC, in the absence of the pet parents. If needed, can H2O plants, bring in pkgs/papers/ mail, etc. - as included services.
Check out my website (put in top browser window: www.tinapetsitting.com) - As have 18 PERFECT "5 out of 5" GOLD STAR reviews from very satisfied clients. I appreciate your consideration - if you'd like to explore my pet care services further. I look forward to hearing from you soon. Best Regards, Tina F.

Tina has been walking and working with my dog, Maggie, since September 2014. She is dependable and trustworthy, and provides extensive knowledge and experience in her care of my sweet girl. I have owned dogs (and other animals) for many years, and have still learned some good tips from Tina. I completely trust Tina with access to my house while I'm at work or away on travel. Tina has great communication and is flexible to schedule changes every time I ask. Tina always shows care and concern for her clients (people and animals). I highly recommend Tina for all of your animal care needs.
Tina was everything one wants a pet sitter to be - responsible, reliable, caring & loving. She took care of our 3 dogs while we were out of the country for 3 weeks. Tina planned for every eventuality, giving us great confidence in her that was amply proven while we were away. When we first met Tina, her love for dogs was very apparent, both to us & our dogs. They loved her immediately (& one of the dogs doesn't always accept a new person). Tina kept us up-to-date on how the dogs were doing via email, so we were able to enjoy our trip without worries. She was very conscious of protecting our security & privacy. We would hire her again in a heartbeat.
If you want excellent and reliable care for your pet, you won't find a better sitter than Tina. She was outstanding with my temperamental Pekingese. Her notes and updates helped to alleviate any concerns. She clearly loves animals and has a great rapport with them. She is caring and compassionate and worked to quickly form a bond with my pet. She is absolutely trustworthy and honest. As a homeowner she knows how the little things (bringing in the mail, leaving lights on, etc) help when you are out of town. I am so pleased with Tina’s service. I highly recommend Tina and will continue to work with her whenever we are out of town.
