About: I’ve always been very passionate in animals. I have taken care of animals since I was 12 years old. I started my own dog treat business when I was 13 year old. I am currently a student at Joliet Junior college. I am looking for a part time job. I will be available during the day and overnight. I have no pets. I currently live with my parents. My mom is allergic to animals so I will not be able to take them to my home.

“Bridgitt was excellent. She made a trip over to our home to meet us and Fozzie. She is delightful and we all felt so comfortable with her. Fozzie took to her right away. She took notes and was all prepared to come back later and walk Fozzie! She kept us informed, letting us know when she arrived, where they walked, how often he peed, and sent us pics! We were so impressed. We highly recommend Bridgitt and we will have her again.”

About: I’ve had dogs, bunnies, and other animals my whole life! I just graduated college, and am looking for a good way to spend my extra time right now:) I currently have a very open schedule, so there’s not much that wouldn’t fit into my routine right now. Pet care would be the perfect addition to my routine:) I have a lot of experience caring for pets in other peoples homes. I love taking dogs for walks, and playing with them especially when the weather is nice!

“Emalee saved the day! I was running late to get Goku out due to inclement weather and messaged Emalee at the last minute! Yay! She was able to cover his afternoon walk. Great job as always! Much appreciated!”

About: I am an animal science student with a concentration in animal behavior and wellbeing. In the agricultural community, I raised and showed an award winning rabbit. Last semester, I was an animal care intern at Columbian Park Zoo. I have nearly a decade experience working in pet care. In addition, my family fosters animals. I am seeking employment in pet care to fill my spare time with a furry companion. I have a flexible schedule in the morning and evening during the week. I am available Thursday-Sunday for weekend stays. When I was in third grade, my family opened our home to foster animals. Throughout the last 11 years, we have cared for animals with parvo, double ear infections, malnourishment, etc. The foster organization trusts us to nourish these animals back to health and prepare them for their forever homes. When I visit client homes, I spend quality time with animals providing them with enrichment. I pride myself on reliability, my clients trust and depend on me to care for their beloved pets. In addition to my experiences, my coursework focuses on animal behavior and wellbeing which helps enhance my services.

About: I have had 6 dogs and 5 cats as my own personal pets and love them with all my heart. I was also a volunteer at PAWS in Tinley Park for 5 years, and then volunteered at the Human Society in Plainfield for an additional 3 years. I have had 5 dogs at one time as family members in my own home. I have helped some of the most difficult dogs become adoptable when I volunteered. I work part time and I also babysit for my grandchildren as needed. I do have days where I am not scheduled for either, so I would like to help someone with their pet if I can. I cannot watch someone's animal in my home. One of my dogs is a senior dog who is on medication for seizures. I will only go to the clients home to walk, feed, and show love and kindness. My own animals are on a regular routine. They are fed in the morning, water is always present. My cats have access to their food 24/7 (they like to graze). My dogs go outside in the morning, noon, later afternoon and 8 pm. I like there to be set times, so the dogs are in a routine.

About: I’ve had dogs in my life ever since I was born! I love all dogs and have dog sat for friends, family, and neighbors for years. I’ve worked with all types of dogs from large to small, outgoing and shy, and even anxious puppies. I’m currently working from home so I have a lot of time for your dog! My weekends are typically spent working on projects at home so I spend a lot of time at home. :) I live in a quiet neighborhood with very nice walking paths! We do not have a fenced in yard but have many leashes available. I have a super friendly golden retriever to keep your dog company!

About: I’ve had pets and taken care of pets for as long as I can remember. I’ve had cats and dogs and have worked with senior dogs and senior cats as well as kittens and a couple puppies. I also have worked with dogs who needed medical treatments like diabetes. Currently I have a lovely cat who is one year old named binx. I love all animals and will be sure that your pet is in the best care. I work part time on the weekends but I always have time for a pretty pooch or cute kitty! I’d be happy to fit them in my schedule. I am willing to take every precaution necessary to take care of your pet in home. I do have some other pet essentials and would be willing to pick up some things that may be needed. No need to worry about if you’d pet has medical needs because I am comfortable with taking care of your pet in any way possible. All rates are subject to negotiation please feel free to contact me with your budget and we can work something out! I take care of my lovely kitty, Binx every day. That includes feedings, playing, grooming, cleaning cat litter, petting and more. I love animals and try to find a way to include them wherever I can. My cat often hangs with me while I work on my computer or watch TV. I always do my best to follow the needs of the pet and the pet parent and see where I can help. Every pet and parent has different needs and I’m happy to accommodate.

About: The biggest thing that I believe sets me apart from other pet sitters is my knowledge of psychology and behavior which in turn allows me to connect and tend to the needs of animals. I have been told many times that I am the only stranger that their pet gets along with! I also am a part time caretaker for my grandfather. My responsibilities often include cleaning, shopping, and cooking. I really enjoy it. Lastly, I volunteered at a farm in Oregon for about 3 months back around early 2022. I was routinely in charge of many tasks relating to the care of animals including feeding chickens, cleaning the chicken coop, periodically moving cows to fresh pasture...etc. I am currently attending college online and work a part-time job. Taking care of animals on my own time works very well for me and I enjoy it a lot! I have been the primary owner of my 3 year old pug named Captain up until a year ago when I started to live with my grandfather to take care of him. Due to various factors, Captain now primarily stays at my parents' house (15 min away) which works out very well for everybody. I often have him over and also watch him at my parents' house when nobody is around. I take him out whenever he scratches at the door and take him on at least one walk a day. In between his meals I will give him snacks in exchange for tricks! That being said, if you are teaching your dog certain things, I would be glad to do my part in teaching as well! Last thing that I believe is very important would be cleaning off the paws with a towel after letting my dog outside when it’s muddy and wet outside.

About: Hello! My names Brittany! I am a mother to an 18 month old boy with a 3 year old Anatolian Shepard and two cats! I work from home 3 days a week and would love to help out in the area where I can! If there are any questions or comments, please let me know and I will gladly get back to you in a timely manner! Hope to hear from you soon! It’s part of my daily routine with a dog and two cats! Cats get for every morning and then they all eat at 3pm for dinner. No comment. No in home care will be part of my services. Sorry about that & thank you for understanding as it’s hard on my cats.

About: I have had animals apart of my life since I was born! Although we do not currently own any pets since we love to travel we love taking part of pet sitting and dog walking! We started asking our neighbors if we could spend some time with their pups after seeing our son was scared of dogs as a simple way to help introduce him into the world of joy that comes with owning a dog. And throughout the process we got to meet so many different dogs and fell in love with learning all the different personalities and quirks each dog had. Since my fiancé and I both work from home we thought why not look into doing this more regularly! Which lead us to joining Rover! So here we are ready to help our neighbors with any of their pet needs! Looking forward to spoiling your fur babies! From my pack to yours, I can’t wait to hear from you! It's important to note that every pet is unique, and their individual needs may vary. Owners should tailor their routines to accommodate their pet's specific requirements, age, breed, and health conditions. Flexibility and adaptability are key to ensuring the well-being and happiness of your pet within your daily or weekly schedule. Initial consultation: Meet with the client to discuss their pet's routine, dietary needs, medical history, and any specific instructions. Take note of emergency contact information and inform the client about your availability. Maintain the pet's routine: Stick to the pet's established schedule for feeding, walking, playtime, and medication administration, if required. Consistency helps reduce stress for the pet. Safety and security: Ensure that the home is secure and that the pet cannot escape. Keep an eye out for potential hazards, such as open windows, toxic substances, or small objects that the pet could ingest. Exercise and play: Provide the pet with sufficient exercise and mental stimulation according to their needs. Take dogs for walks, engage them in play, or follow any specific exercise routines requested by the client. Food and water: Follow the client's instructions regarding feeding schedules, portion sizes, and dietary restrictions. Ensure that fresh water is always available. Monitoring and interaction: Spend quality time with the pet, offering companionship, affection, and socialization. Observe their behavior, appetite, and overall well-being, reporting any concerns to the client.
