“Rose was FANTASITC!! She came over and met the dogs before hand. The day of, she came over, spent time with them, on their walk and then snuggles and treats!! The pictures received while she was with them were great and could tell they loved their time with her!! Would absolutely recommend and will use her again in the future as well!!”


“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!”


“Catarina went above and beyond caring for our 12 year old dog, Seve. She is a dog whisperer and he warmed up to her so quickly. Even on rainy days she entertained him with games—it was like he got a full doggy daycare experience! Will definitely be using her a lot in the future!”


“Jessica was amazing! It’s obvious she loves animals and we were able to have peace of mind because of her extensive experience with animals. We would love to have Jessica watch Clementine again!!”


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.

“Nia did an amazing job understanding the needs and caring for our diabetic senior cat! She provided great visit descriptions and photos! We highly recommend her for your pets' care!”


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.

“MacKena was great! Flexible with her availability. Great with my boxer. They like each other! Administered her pill. Sends reports regarding her visit with my dog, along with pictures. Responsive to messages. I will definitely use her again.”

“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!”


About: I have had a dog my entire life. I have worked as a dog bather in the past for 8 plus years. I get alone with all dogs and make friends with everyone I meet. I like to get to know and meet all new dog family members. I watch family members dogs often when they go out of town. I am free everyday to take care of anyone dog that needs care and love. Right now I’m available anytime needed just not at night when I might be asleep I take my own dog for a walk everyday around the neighborhood. I bath him once a week and love playing with him and his toys outside getting all the energy out of him till he ready for a good nap

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 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.

About: I have had multiple dogs since I was born. They were of different sizes and breeds. I have also dog sat for multiple family friends. Work some on the weekends, but available all throughout the week. I work 8 hour shifts on the weekends so I will care for your pets right before and after my shift. I have my own very sturdy dog leash that I can use if you don’t have one. I also have a vehicle so I’m able to drive to different places.

“We are very happy with Brianna. She is dependable and loves animals. She sent us pictures of our dog every day as reassurance he was happy. I will definitely request her the next time we travel!”



“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 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.
