A Little Bit About Us

SOUND PETS CARES!

“Pets were always a part of my family growing up and essentially ARE my family as an adult.  I am currently mom to a seven year old ‘foster fail’ pit bull named Midge.  She’s simply the best!  In the last twenty years, I’ve called five cats, two dogs, and a blue russian tortoise family.  They’ve all been rescue animals, hence the soft spot in our pricing for their services.  I have volunteered as a foster parent, a volunteer walker, and as an adoption center shift lead for multiple local rescues in the past few years.  In those roles, I have handled and walked all types, breeds, shapes, sizes, ages, special needs, etc. dogs.  I’ve had multiple stints as a part time dog walker and pet sitter over the last 15 years, as well as being a go-to for friends and neighbors’ pet care when they leave town or need a hand with walks.  I cannot wait to spend time with and grow the Sound Pets community in our little pocket of Chicago!”
