Beth took care of are two wild pit mixes. They have some meds and special food and walking instructions which make us worry a little while we’re gone. But we ran into no issues with any of that. The dogs were well taken care of and Beth updated us frequently. One less thing to worry about during a family trip is so great.

Keyonnah is the best dog sitter I have used! Her gentle demeanor and love of pets, put my dog at ease and I felt 100 % comfortable leaving my pet in her care for 8 days. Keyonnah is reliable, responsible and extremely affordable. I will definitely continue to hire Keyonnah as needed.

Erin cared for my 2 cats and 1 dog for 10 days while I was out of the country on vacation. She communicated daily, sent pictures and I was able to enjoy my trip knowing my pets and home were in good hands. I came home to happy pets and my house was in order and just as I left it. Erin is my go to person and I highly recommend her!!

About: I have had pets my whole life. I currently have two cats and two dogs, but have had other animals in the past. I have taken care of animals in every way including a special needs cat who had diabetes, he needed insulin injections and blood sugar checks. I am a full time student at ISU. I have a very flexible schedule as I have at most two classes on two days of the week, one class two days of the week, and no classes the rest of the time. I have had cats most of my life, and am very accustomed to playing with cats, feeding schedules, litter cleanup, brushing, and nail clipping. I am very patient with a cat’s personality as I have rescued a mama cat and her kittens, and understand it can take some time for a kitty to get comfortable with new people or environment.

As soon as I met Ashley, I felt so relaxed about leaving my home and pets in her care! She and her boyfriend Eric went beyond just pet sitting, they kept in touch regularly and took excellent care of our home as well. We returned to very happy pets!

Nicole is wonderful! It is obvious how much she loves animals. Very nice and very professional. One of our dogs is a very traumatized rescue and he let her pet him, put on His leash and take him out in the yard. FYI-our dogs are 100+ Alaskan malamutes. I will definitely have Nicole come and pet sit again. Highly recommend!

CLAIRE was a 100/10!! Her care of our dog was absolutely amazing! He usually is very nervous and gets upset when we are away and he was so comfortable with her the entire time we were gone. It made our vacation 1000 times more relaxing. We can’t thank her enough!

About: I've taken care of my friends and family's dogs and cats since I was in elementary school where I would make sure to feed, walk, and play with them routinely. Those experiences prepared me for my own fur baby, Nano, who is the sweetest grey shorthair cat in the world, he has been in my life for almost three years now and he's brought me so much joy during our time together. I will do my utmost to make sure that your own fur babies will receive the same love and care! I am free every single day of the week and I am most available during the day time but I can also work at night if need be. I will not be available to do pet sitting at my location. This is due in part because Nano is incredibly skittish around other animals.

About: I have experience administering all kinds of medication to all ages of dogs. I love meeting your older dogs and have experience helping them navigate stairs and the home if necessary. I am patient and if your dog needs extra accommodation I am happy to provide assistance. I am currently a college student on break for the summer so my schedule is incredibly flexible. I am available for early mornings, late nights, and everything in between. I understand it can be nerve racking trusting someone with your pet, but I am extremely communicative and will keep you updated as frequently as you wish. I have pet sat for multiple families who have always returned to tidy homes and happy pets. As someone who has had the privilege of loving many animals, big and small (snakes, lizards, geckos, cat, hamsters), I understand the importance of your pet.

About: I've grown up always having pets in the home. We've always had at least one dog in the house, along with a handful of other types of pets (cats, rats, guinea pigs, even a chinchilla) throughout the years. This has solidified my love for animals of all kinds, and makes me eager to care for and love your pets as if they are my own, if you choose to give me the opportunity to do so :) I am a teacher trying to keep myself busy for the summer! My schedule is wide open so feel free to message me with any requests! I care for pets in their own home by maintaining their normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, exercise, and any medications they may need. I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I also make sure to keep owners updated with regular messages and photos for peace of mind! I also have reliable transportation which would allow me to be able to come to your home and care for your pet in their own environment!

About: I’ve taken care of all types of dogs. I have most experience with big dogs like Rottweilers, labs, and pitbulls (not that big I know). I’ve taken care of and helped train puppies and toddler dogs as well as senior dogs. Currently have a white pitbull mix who deals with allergies and skin issues who I trained myself. I’m happy to handle any and all quirks and requests you or your pet may have. I know what it’s like to feel like a burden when looking for a dog sitter because they need a specific feeding method or a weird ritual for potty time. I’m currently a student at Illinois Central College. I have free time most days over the summer. My availability will be a bit more limited in the fall. I am comfortable with all types of pets and all that comes with them. I have lots of experience picking up and cleaning up after animals as well as crate training if needed, skin care, giving medicine, grooming, clothing, or anything else you might need/want.

Rina stayed in our home with our three dogs. One of my dogs is reactive and she listened to all of the tips and trigger points we noted to keep everyone safe. She was confident, smart and dog savvy. Their feeding routine and meds were given without a hitch. She recognized that one of my dogs was feeling stressed without us and reached out for ways to help her feel comfortable. Everyone was happy and healthy when we returned. We will definitely be using Rina for future dog sitting, she was awesome!

Having a sitter that Romeo and Leo adore and that lives close by has been the biggest blessing. I can go out of town and rest assured they will be taken care of and not stressed out. Will continue to book with Alyssia for overnights and drop ins for the future.
