“Kayla recently completed drop in visits for our cats while we were away. She not only fed and watered them, but made sure to give them lots of love while she was there and even managed to coax our cat that prefers to stay hidden, out of her hiding spot. We plan on using Kayla again and highly recommend her!”


About: I have been an independent pet sitter for 17 plus years. I have plenty of experience with cats, dogs and other small critters. I have been very passionate in my love of animals for many years and all of my pets mean the world to me. I have spent time volunteering in shelters for pet care as we as medical care and have spent time working as a vet assistant as well. While working in the vet office I learned how to medicate cats as well as how to give subcutaneous fluids. I have worked in various animal related fields for over a decade including vet offices, shelters, grooming facilities, pet stores and pet sitting. All animals are fascinating to me and I enjoy learning about the different types of care they all need. I live in Galena IL and am willing to cover all surrounding areas 😸 Pet sitting is my main job and my schedule is currently open. I'm looking to build my local client base and earn your trust :) I will care for pets in the clients own home. I will follow the care instructions provided for each pet. During overnight visits I will treat your home with the utmost respect.

About: I have 3 dogs and 2 cats of my own. I love to play with them, to keep active. I have experience with dog sitting for some family friends and coworkers in the past. I have experience with giving medication (oral or injection). My schedule is soon going to free up even more, however I'm fairly flexible now too. Currently I am quite flexible. I need an advanced notice for potential bookings due to my busy, ever-changing schedule. I'm looking forward to meeting some new pets. I prefer to care for pets are their own homes to keep them happy and comfortable. I have a full household as it is, with 3 dogs and 2 cats. I will be able to let them out multiple times, possibly take them for walks depending on amount of dogs and sizes, play with them and love them.

“Joanie was excellent with our pups! We did a meet and greet beforehand, as one of our girls can be a little anxious around new people, but she warmed up to Joanie right away! During the visit, she sent updates and photos which we appreciated. All around great experience!”


“Mackena did a great job with my kitties ! We had a meet & greet prior to my trip so she could meet the girls and get a "lay of the land". She was great about providing lots of wonderful pictures and detailed updates the whole time I was away. It gave me great peace of mind to know they were getting positive attention. Would definitely book with Mackena again!”


About: I’ve had dogs, cats, bunnies - you name it. I love animals & have experience caring for and spending time with plenty. Coming from an owner, I know our pets are our family and deserve the best care & fun! I am a student who also works first shift but has availability before and after! Availability every weekend as well! I don’t mind helping on holidays. Frequent dog park goer & walker! Would love to take more doggos with me. I am comfortable with crates. Communication is great - shoot me a message and I can accommodate!

About: I grew up in a family that always had dogs, ranging from small dogs (like Chihuahuas) to big dogs (like German Wirehairs). As a child, I took on dog training experience through my local 4-H group and pursued that for a large portion of my early education career. Since then, I have always been a lover of dogs and have taken on many responsibilities, not only for my family dogs, but for my roommate’s dogs as well. Any care and love your dog needs, I would be happy to provide it! I’m available for pet care during the week and on weekends from the end of June through early September. Whether you need drop-in visits or overnight home stays, I’m happy to help, just please be sure to book in advance so I can plan accordingly! I kindly ask for at least one day’s notice for cancellations. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry friend! Please note: I do not offer dog care in my own home as I live in an apartment. However, I’m happy to provide in-home care at your residence for both dogs and cats! For dogs, I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention, including regular walks, outdoor playtime (at a nearby dog park or fenced yard), and bathroom breaks every 30–60 minutes based on their needs. I’m also happy to follow any specific instructions you provide to keep your pup happy and comfortable. For cats, I offer attentive and respectful care, feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, and affection (if your cat is the cuddly type!). I understand feline behavior and know how to give them the space or snuggles they prefer. Whatever your pet needs, I’m here to help while keeping their routine as stress-free as possible!

About: I’ve been around and taken care of dogs since I was young, All sizes from larger breeds to little dachshunds. I absolutely love it and it’d be amazing if I could make my love for dogs a career. My schedule is wide open—I’m available to walk your pup almost anytime! Flexible, reliable, and ready when you need me. Let’s get those tails wagging! I am willing to care for your furry friend in your home. If you have any details about your fur-baby you need to add, any special medications, etc. Always let me know.

About: I’ve had a dogs in my life, since I was a child, and was introduced to cats as I ventured into the collegiate life. As an adult I have cared for dogs primarily, but recently had the opportunity to take care of the sweetest cats! I am fairly patient with pets and like to give them as much space as they like to try to not mess up the routines, but if they are balls of energy and cuddle bugs, I am more than happy to comply! I believe that walks and healthy roaming space is good for a dog’s, development and energy, and respecting a cat to make the first move to ensure respect and comfort to their environment. Hi! I’m a full-time high school interpreter and a lifelong animal lover. During the school year, I spend my days helping students thrive in the classroom — and now that summer’s here, I’m excited to dedicate my time to caring for your pets! I like doing research on the neighborhoods that I’m going into if it’s a new area, and like to understand what you have available, either a dog park, or a fenced backyard, to really understand how to best care for your dog. My dog is a big ball of energy so I have learned a lot of skills to be able to make sure that they stay in their assigned spaces, I do like to keep them with me on my lap as I work, or nearby letting them enjoy a nap.


“I used Hannah for the first time. She was on time , considerate and interacted well with my pets. So happy to have found her and highly recommend Hannah’s services. You won’t be disappointed!”


About: I've always loved animals, I work at a doggy daycare and volunteer at the humane society. I will also be sitting for my soon to be past highschool teacher. Sitting: with college and work I pretty much can dog sit everyday Dog walking: I can do every day between work and college Grooming: I'd prefer doing that on a weekend I have two dogs and two cats at home. I also work at a doggy daycare and know how to handle dogs and cats. Thank you.

About: I enjoy working with dogs and am very patient. I am very good at teaching them leash manners while having lots of fun and tiring them out. I currently work hybrid from home and nearby. I enjoy walking my dog at least two times every day and continually working on training. I typically work from 8-4 and am home for lunch and throughout the day. I have a small yard but am only two blocks from a hiking trail that my dog and I visit almost every day. I have a two year old chocolate lab that wants to be everyone's friend and gets along great with other dogs. I am easily able to kennel your dog if desired and will regularly entertain them inside and out.
