House Sitting Barnard

“I cannot express how much I appreciated the service. Above and beyond in all respects. Pretty last minute booking, very quick to respond. So sweet and kind. Top notch communication and sent all kinds of pictures. Even swept up the litter and did other extras that were absolutely more than was needed. So very appreciative. Absolutely the best pet sitter experience! Thank you so much for your time and effort. You're amazing!”

About: Ever since I was little, I’ve taken care of all kinds of dogs and cats for family and friends. From the most energetic puppies to anxious rescues, I am very experienced in pet care, and will ensure your furry friends receive all the love and attention they deserve while you’re away! I am currently taking a break from school, making me available all throughout the week to help with anything you need—including walks, check-ins, and house sitting. I cannot care for your pets in my home because my dog gets very anxious around other unfamiliar animals. However, I can definitely stay in your home where your pets feel the most comfortable, & will take care of them exactly as you would like!

“Zoe was very attentive and communicative. Warner and Vivie loved having her hangout with them and are already looking forward to having her back!”

About: I’ve been looking after my family’s, as well as my own animals for years. I can appropriately handle both higher and lower energy animals, as well as care for animals that need special attention. Two of my kittens have asthma so I’m good with around the clock medications when they are needed. I’m currently a freshman in college, I have a part time job with super flexible hours and work schedules. I don’t mind staying over or even dropping by every few hours if they don’t need 24 hour supervision. I am very capable of taking larger or even smaller dogs on walks if needed, or just keeping an eye on them in the yard. I don’t mind cleaning up after them as well. Most of the cats that I have are rescues and require taking medication so I do have experience with administering those when needed.

“Kristle was amazing!!! We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter to watch our Coco Bella! Kristle was loving and caring! She was so good to Coco! She took her out on walks, played with her, and made sure she was well taken care of. She sent us pictures everyday and was quick to respond! I am so happy we met Kristle and we will be in contact with her for future needs! I highly recommend her services! Thank you Kristle and family! Coco loved you guys!”

About: I have my own dog. I've grown up with dogs. I worked at a pet store when I was a teenager, and have house/pet sat before. Although, I'm not a vet, I'm observant and will keep an eye out for issues that concern you. Pet health is important. That includes nutrition and grooming. I know some think there is such a thing as over involved pet parents, I think they're family and should be treated as such. I volunteer at my church every Thursday, Backpack Program fifth Wednesdays (when they occur) and Orphan Grain Train every other month on the third Thursday. Otherwise, I take care of my dad who has COPD. I have to be home to cook for him. And take care of my own dog. Eventually, I will allow dogs to stay with me overnight, but I want to make sure my dog and said dogs get along. So that is my availability. I have a pitbull mix. She is very good around other dogs. Especially after she gets to know them. She's not aggressive, just tends to hump when excited. All dogs will need a leash if they are coming with me. I have walking trails in my community. I have no problem walking your dogs in them. Please make sure they have up to date tick meds. Also I live with my dad he will be petting and loving any pet that spends the night. My house is two story, so if you have a senior dog that needs help just let me know.

“Laura was fantastic. We left our Theo for a week with Laura and she kept us informed and took great care of the house and Theo. We would definitely book her again. Carl and Jennie”

About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 5 years and have experience with both dogs and cats of all ages and personalities. I also worked for a woman who owned her own Yorkie breeding business for a year, where I helped care for puppies and adult dogs daily. Along with that experience, I’ve helped neighbors, friends, and family with feeding, walking, playtime, overnight care, and giving pets plenty of attention and affection. I’ve also worked with cats for 2 years, and they’re one of my favorite animals to care for. I’m dependable, patient, and treat every pet like they’re my own. My schedule is flexible, and I do my best to accommodate each pet parent’s needs. I’m available for drop-in visits, walks, overnight care, and extended stays depending on availability. I’m reliable, communicative, and committed to keeping pets on their normal routine as much as possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I pay close attention to routines, behavior, and any special instructions to make sure every pet feels secure and cared for. I create a calm, positive environment and make sure pets get plenty of supervision, affection, exercise, and attention while in my care. I also provide regular updates and photos so pet parents can feel confident and worry-free.

About: I’ve had animals my entire life, most of which was more than 3 dogs at a time! I’ve had everything from small 30 pound mutts to 120+pound mastiffs. I currently work from home and have 2 wonderful pittie pups, one of which is a tripod. I live in a quiet neighborhood in Plainfield perfect to host your fur baby while you’re away! I work from home and can stay in your home or host your fur babes at our house. I don’t have human kids, only fur kids! I have a fenced in yard and have 2 dogs of my own. I have a house that has plenty of space for everyone to feel comfortable and safe.

“Tasha is amazing!!! She was prompt, easily reachable, very communicative and sent lots of updates and pictures of our dogs Rock and Dre. Tasha was honest and fair and I look forward to working with her again soon.”

“Josh was fabulous! Our dog really needed extra care emotionally since we had to have our other dog put down a month ago. Josh was here with him most of the time! During the meet and greet he took meticulous notes! He even brought him a treat (after checking with me.) Josh was able to administer several different meds too with confidence. His communication and pictures throughout his stay was a wonderful way to keep up with his care. He's very responsive, responsible, respectful, and kind. I will use him in the future and look forward to keeping in touch with him!”

Rocky R.

“Lexi was terrific. Jack and Duke don't like most people but they spent last evening looking for Lexi after she'd left. After we had a meet and greet with Lexi I had no worries at all about leaving the pups with her. I would not hesitate to leave them with her again!”

What sets me apart from other sitters is my unique combination of skills and experience: As a nurse, I have a deep understanding of health and wellness, and I bring this expertise to caring for your pets. I am attentive, compassionate, and skilled at handling any health-related concerns that may arise. My own dog is currently in training to be a therapy dog, which speaks to my commitment and capability in training and managing pets. This experience has equipped me with advanced techniques to ensure your pets are well-behaved and happy. Personally training my dog has given me practical insights into pet behavior, discipline, and the importance of positive reinforcement. I bring this hands-on knowledge to every pet I care for, ensuring a loving and nurturing environment. By choosing me as your pet sitter, you can rest assured that your furry family members will receive the highest level of care, attention, and affection. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! Caring for my own pup is part of my daily routine! Your pup will be part of the family when they are with us. I can cater to their needs. In my home surrounded by woods and with a backyard that extends into a spacious field, I provide a safe and enriching environment for pets in my care. Whether it's in my home or yours, safety, trust, and comfort are my top priorities. I ensure a secure setting, free from hazards, where pets can roam and explore freely under supervision. With my dog as a companion, who enjoys the expansive outdoor space with me, we offer a dynamic and stimulating atmosphere for pets. Regular long leash walks are part of our routine, tailored to each pet's needs, ensuring they receive ample exercise and mental stimulation. You can trust that your pets will receive attentive care, plenty of outdoor time, and a loving environment that feels just like home.
