House Sitting in Alton

“Emma was AMAZING! One of our dogs has a hard time being away from us but he took right to Emma. He ate his food and was very relaxed when we came home. She also took lots of pictures and videos of our dogs while we were away!”

“Lauren took great care of our dog and house! She kept us updated daily and reassured us our dog was in good hands! We will definitely re-book next time we need a dog sitter!”

Nikki G.

“Robin was great with our pets! One of the pups had a minor medical issue and Robin handled it like a pro. She was a combo house-sitter/pet sitter and left the house just like she found it! We would ask Robin to care for our pets again any time.”

“This girl is a rockstar! We booked in home sitting with Jaiydah for over a week, and she took such great care of our two dogs. I received multiple updates each day while we were away. She played with them and loved on them and I am sure our dogs were disappointed when we walked through the door instead of Jaiydah. 100% will book again. The absolute best person for the job 🥰”

“I really don’t know where to begin but Royalty was the best dog sitter we have ever had. He handled alot of difficulties that came with a very timid, recently rescued puppy without a single complaint or a negative attitude. He will be the person my wife and I call first from now on when we travel. Can’t boat on him enough!”

Blake G.

“An amazing dog sitter. Patient, attentive and very kind. Our puppy is naughty and can be testing but Rosemary handled his challenging butt with grace and sweetness. My dog instantly felt comfortable and safe with her. 10/10 would reccomend!”

Sh B.

“Abbie was awesome! Super communicative and lots of picture updates :) Would definitely use again.”

Miranda B.

“Andra was professional, courteous, and loving with my pets. She communicated clearly and effectively and managed a health concern with one of my dogs calmly and with care. She went above and beyond consistently. I would strongly recommend her services and would hire her again in the future without hesitation.”

Peter T.

“Loved having Falisia watch our girls! She is friendly and thoughtful, and we felt comfortable having her in our home with our dogs. I will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future!”

About: Growing up I had experience with a lot of types of animals, from cats, dogs, sheep, pigs, cows and horses. In my adult life, I have had a lab mix and have had 4 boxers (3 currently still in the home) and a siamese mixed cat. I learned a lot about dog behavior when I got my first boxer through training, and feel like that has helped me with other dogs too. Two of my current boxers are seniors and they take meds so I am familiar with those types of things and my other one is 8 months old so I am currently also in the puppy phases as well. I do have a full-time job. Evenings and weekends are the best time for me on some days. I often work from home later in the week so I can be flexible those days. I am definitely open to chatting about options. I will keep my calendar up to date based on my availability. If your pups are coming to my house, I have a fenced in yard. I do have a pool, but I go outside with all pups for safety reasons. If your dog loves to swim let me know! I also have a quiet neighborhood for a nice leashed walk. I do have a lot of stairs so if you have a senior dog that has mobility issues my house might not be the best option. If they go out on a leash this would be less of an issue b/c I can take them for a walk out front. I crate my puppy when I am gone, and can crate your dog when/if you would like me too. I would like any special instructions about medications/food/behavior etc that are specific to your pets. I would need any specific instructions for your in home stays with your pets.

“Beckie was incredible with our puppers! She treated them like her own, sending a ton of pictures! One of the best sitters I have ever had watch the dogs! Thank you, Beckie!”

About: Hello! I’m a stay-home-mom to an 8-year-old human, 17-year-old Border Collie, and a kitty under 1. Our family moved to the area in2017, and I’ve built strong friendships with neighbors while caring for their pets while they are away. I have a lifetime of experience with both dogs and cats; canine recall training, socialization and behavioral training. My (our) love for animals makes this sort of “work” easy and fun. I know how important it is to leave your pets in the care of someone that you trust, and I love an opportunity to spend time with them. I would love to meet your pets! I’m home for the majority of the day everyday. Our son goes to elementary school on weekdays, so I have plenty of time to spend with your pets! In our home, we promote a calm environment indoors. To play, we go outside to our backyard where we have plenty of space! We also have a dog park nearby if you’d like.

“Excellent house sitter! Micaiah took such good care of our 4 babies while we were out of town for two nights. She was so respectful of our home and kept me updated on the dogs and how they were doing. The house was perfect when we returned and the dogs were healthy and happy! Def recommend I know we will use her again!”

“Wonderful house sitting experience for my dogs, one with separation anxiety. Thank you, Katelynn!”

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, both personally and professionally. I'd be thrilled to help you and your family know your beloved fur babies are in good hands while you travel. I commit to providing them with everything you request and abundant love to keep them comfortable and healthy until you return home. I've always had pets ranging from rabbits to cats to dogs...especially the large breeds, I love the way they think they're lap dogs. Additionally, I've had professionally trained husbandry skills for a variety of animals for 13+ years. I thoroughly enjoy exercise and walk each night with my family. Taking your dog along with us would be a highlight added to our routine! I look forward to speaking with you soon! I am happy to accommodate a variety of scheduling needs to ensure your pet care needs are met. For this reason, I've kept a small radius of those within 10 min of my own home. I have a fenced yard and take walks daily. It would be an honor to include your fur baby in my daily routine while you're away!

About: I have plenty of experience with both dogs and cats. I understand the importance of consistency in a pet’s routine and am dedicated to keeping them happy and stress-free. I specialize in providing in-home care, as I believe pets feel safest in their own environment. This way, they can stick to their regular schedule, I can check in at least 3 times a day and/or stay the night. Whether it’s a puppy needing some training or a senior pet with special needs, I’m always eager to learn how I can best serve them. I can schedule regular walks (at least once a day), let pets in and out 3 times a day, and be there whenever they need me. You can be confident that your pet will receive care. I do not work from Thursday to Sunday but will be in and out throughout the day. I believe in creating a safe and secure environment for every pet I care for. For this reason, I only provide pet care in clients' homes, where animals feel most comfortable and secure. I take the time to learn as much as possible about your pet’s needs, temperament, food preferences, and any specific medical requirements. Knowing all the little details ensures that I can provide the highest level of care.

“Darby was great. Very attentive to each animal and they seemed to love her. One of the cats stays hidden and he was out and about hanging out with her. The animals seemed like they had a great weekend. Would definitely use again!”
