Pet Sitting Alburnett

About: I have owned pets my whole life. My two Bernese Mountain Dogs both recently passed and I would love to care for your pets as I get over their loss. If you are requesting house sitting M-F please be aware that I work full time days so it's basically just drop-ins and my house sitting does not include sleeping overnight at your home. I am not currently offering in-home pet care at my residence. Will update if this changes in the future. No pricing has been provided for this particular service.

“Was out of the country for the week and this was my first time using Rover. Brie had amazing communication and took very good care of my cats! My super shy kitty even let her pet her by the end of the week, which is huge because she doesn’t come out for anyone. They were in very good hands!”

About: I have over 8 years of hands on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and energy levels. I provide dependable dog walking services focused on safety, exercise, and fun. I’m comfortable with puppies who are still learning leash manners as well as senior dogs who need a slower, gentler pace. I pay close attention to each dog’s personality and needs, whether that means high energy walks, basic reinforcement of commands, or extra patience and care. Your dog’s happiness, safety, and comfort are always my top priority, and I’ll treat them like my own every time we head out for a walk. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to offer morning, afternoon, and evening walks throughout the week. I’m also available most weekends. Whether your dog needs a consistent daily walk or occasional drop ins, I’m happy to work around your schedule and provide reliable, on time care you can count on. Your dog’s safety is always my number one priority. I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding schedules, medications, leash preferences, and any special needs. I tailor each walk to your dog’s energy level, age, and personality, whether that means a brisk, active walk or a slow, relaxed stroll. I treat every dog like family and make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away.

“Dry dependable and loving to our cat. Great communication! Have utilized Shelley for over two years with no complaints. Trust her completely.”

“Margaret is the best!! She took time to meet us prior to doing her scheduled drop ins and learned everything that we requested to be done during her time with our golden retriever Goose. She’s been absolutely wonderful with helping us continue his training during the drop ins, playing and loving on our boy. Excellent communication, highly recommend her!”

Kayla P.

“Amanda checked in everyday and took great pictures of my cats! She was incredibly thoughtful and took excellent care of them while I was on vacation for a week, even spending time giving pets and playing with them. I would highly recommend Amanda to anyone looking for a reliable, kind and caring pet sitter while you are away!”

About: I provide personalized care, puppy training support, and gentle senior care, ensuring every dog feels safe, loved, and comfortable while maintaining routines and clear communication. I’m currently working part-time as a dog daycare attendant, and pet care fits naturally into my routine with daily walks, feeding, playtime, and reliable experience. I follow pets’ routines per the client for feeding, walks, playtime, enrichment, and medications, keeping spaces clean and safe while providing care in the client’s home.

“Talia was great and pleasant to meet. She was on time and reliable and took great pictures of the dogs. We will try to work with her again in the future!”

About: I’ve always grown up with at least one dog in the house. my parents adopted a dog when I was 8 and I’ve helped take care of him ever since. I also had many neighbors who would often ask me to take care of their dog or cat while they were out of town. I had worked at a dog daycare/boarding facility for about 2 years. I currently work at Homegoods, about 32 hours a week. I am off wednsdays and weekends. I work 10-6 the other days, and am able to do mid day drop ins when needed. I follow what the pet wants to do. If they are full of energy, I will play with them or take them for a walk. If they want to lay around and be lazy, then that’s what we’ll do. If it’s just potty breaks, I’ll let them out for a good 10-20 minutes, if it’s nice enough outside. Along with some good scratches before I leave.

About: I’m a veterinary technician with emergency and critical care experience, and an Equissage-certified canine massage therapist. I notice things most pet sitters don’t. I understand that boarding can disrupt a dog’s nervous system. Some dogs do better at home while you’re away, and my massage therapy background means I have techniques that genuinely help calm and settle an anxious or overstimulated dog in their own environment. During drop-in visits and walks, I’m assessing your dog the whole time. Gait, energy, behavior, subtle signs that something’s off. You’ll hear about it either way. I’m experienced with medically complex dogs, seniors, and anxious dogs, and equally comfortable with your healthy, bouncy lab who just needs a solid walk. Cats are absolutely welcome. Cat owners, I see you. Your cat has a whole life, a whole routine, and very strong opinions. I get it. Fill me in on the Royal Treatment and I’ll do my best to make sure it happens. I look forward to meeting you and your animal friend(s) soon. 🐾 I offer drop-in visits and dog walks seven days a week. Visits are typically 30 minutes. I send updates with photos at every visit so you know exactly how things are going. I’m a veterinary technician with emergency and critical care experience. I know how to recognize when something is wrong and what to do about it. All dogs are kept leashed on walks unless we are in a securely fenced area. If your dog jumps fences, we do not go off leash outside. I do not combine your dog with unfamiliar dogs without prior owner approval. I come to you. Drop-in visits and walks take place in your home and neighborhood, which means your dog stays in a familiar environment with their own smells, sounds, and routine intact. I treat every client’s home with respect and leave it exactly as I found it. For drop-in visits that occur at dark or during nighttime hours, I may occasionally have another person with me. This is for my own safety.

“Erin was amazing with our dog! She was extremely responsive and helped us with any questions we had for her! She also was willing to go the extra mile and travel a bit farther than other potential sitters. I will definitely hire her again and recommend Erin to others in need of a doggo sitter.”

About: I grew up with dogs! I have two dogs of my own! They are the best. Looking to help with walks, potty breaks and play time! I am in school and work seasonally. Schedule may vary but I have lots of availability to help with potty breaks, walks and play time! I provide a safe, calm, and clean environment for every pet in my care. I follow all feeding, medication, and exercise instructions carefully while giving pets plenty of attention, affection, and supervision. I respect each pet’s routine and personality to help them feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away!

About: I have had and taken care of dogs for my entire life! I love every size and breed, and appreciate the differences between each animal. I have raised young pups/kittens and taken care of 13+ year old dogs/cats. I also have experience with dogs and cats that are not spayed or neutered. I grew up with four dogs and three cats all under one roof, so I have no problem taking care of multiple fur babies at once. I start student-teaching on 8/24, so I will only be available 3-9 during the weekdays. I am completely willing to stop by after school to walk or check on your furry friend. I have Sundays completely free and am able to help anytime! I have two friendly cats that were raised with dogs and other cats. They mostly keep to themselves but love to socialize with other animals. I will treat each animal like my own!

“Glad to have her watch my cats! Would definitely recommend her and have her watch them again”

“Alexis is wonderful and my boy adores her. She always makes sure he is well taken care of. You can definitely trust her with your home and your fur babies.”

Amy S.

“Carol was great! Not only was she available on short notice before the holidays but she was very thorough in learning about my dog and ensuring both of them could be comfortable around each other. She did drop-in visits while I was out of town and the updates she provided were very detailed and much appreciated. These gave me peace of mind my dog was very well taken care of. She also engaged my dog in activities, like playing with her, during her drop in visits. I’d be comfortable having her watch my dog again in the future and I’m incredibly grateful for her work.”

About: I have had a lot of animals while growing up so I feel like any type of animal I will be able to watch and handle. I work 2 jobs right now during the week and have weekends off. I work at 6:30 every day till 3ish and 3 days a week I have my other job with a small gap between jobs. I don’t like to have animals in cages or in one room I like to have them out roaming or with me over by themselves.

About: I love all dogs no matter the size! I have a mini golden doodle myself and I have been passionate about taking care of dogs ever since! I work in the mornings so afternoons and evenings would be best! I do have some weekends off so I would be able to walk them then also! I will most likely not board dogs but if I had to I do have the space at my apartment but unfortunately no yard for them to run around.
