About Liz

Hi, I’m Liz—founder of Tails Up Pet Club and lifelong animal lover.

I was raised in Chicago’s Bridgeport neighborhood and started volunteering with PAWS Chicago as a teenager. I’ve run marathons to raise money for the city’s homeless cats and dogs—experiences that sparked my passion for animal care and community advocacy.

In 2016, I launched Tails Up to create a pet care service rooted in trust, compassion, and genuine connection with both pets and their humans.

Fun Facts: When I’m not caring for pets or running the business, you’ll often find me playing the violin—something I’ve loved doing for over 20 years.

"Tails Up was built with love—and the belief that every pet deserves to feel safe, happy, and truly cared for, even when their human can’t be there.”

"Animals are my passion and there is no greater satisfaction for me than knowing Tails Up is providing the best walking and sitting care for dogs and cats throughout Chicago! I look forward to getting to know you and your pups and kitties!" - Liz
