Jodi was the best pet sitter I’ve ever had. She understands dogs incredibly well and went above and beyond, loving my dogs as if they were her own. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in her care. I’ll absolutely be booking Jodi again the next time we’re out of town.

About: I have been dog sitting or walking for the last seven years. Also, I worked for a dog daycare for about 2 years. I'm experienced in giving medication and getting stubborn dogs to eat their food. I'm comfortable walking any size or breed of dog. I will be available through the summer and possibly during the school year. The daily or weekly care depends on how many pets I'm caring for at a time. Between the end of August to the beginning of May, I can sit on the weekends. I do require a meeting with owners and the dogs before I dog sit. I'm comfortable to come to my clients home to care for them. If that is taking for a walk or just spending some time with them. I have two friendly beagles that love anyone and a fenced in back yard. I do have a crate of it is need.

About: I don't have any professional experience but I grew up with dogs since I was born. I don't have my own pets so I have a lot of time to give yours. I am available on all day on weekends. If you’re within a couple of miles of Geneva I am available to go let your dogs out on my lunch break and then dog sit after on weekdays. I will respect your home and pets safety when I visit. I can't wait to play with your pet and make sure while you are away they are cared for and secure.

About: I have grown up with small dogs and large dogs. Between Shih Tzus, Aussies, labs, huskies and more, I have been around them all. I currently have four Aussies in our family home that I care for everyday. They are very energetic dogs so I am always playing with them outside or taking them on walks. As well, I have volunteered at many animal shelters and currently volunteer at my college animals shelter. It has given me lots of experience with dogs of all sizes, needs, energy levels, and comfort levels. As well as time spent socializing with the cats! As a college student who mostly babysits, I am very flexible with my weeks. I have a lot of random availability and free time during the day. As well, if I do work, it is usually during the day so I can stay with your animals over night. I am open to any options of care. With fenced in homes, I am always going to let your fur baby run around and play with them. Though, I love to walk and I know they do too. Walks will always happen even if play happens first!

Heather made us feel very comfortable about the whole process. She came for a meet and greet before our trip so she could get acquainted with our dog. While we were away she sent us daily updates with pictures of Nebu. You could really see he was enjoying himself with her. Will definitely contact her again when going away for vacation.

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. From playful puppies to senior dogs needing extra patience and care, I treat every pet like family. As a future nursing student and lifelong animal lover, I’m dependable, attentive, and comfortable handling feeding routines, medications, walks, playtimes, and lots of affection. I currently have a very flexible schedule for the summer and am available for drop ins and walks throughout the week. Once I begin school in the fall, my availability will become more limited, but I’ll continue to keep my calendar updated and communicate clearly about scheduling, and always happy to work with pet parents to find a time that works for both. I always try to keep pets comfortable by following their normal routines as closely as possible. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure before walks or potty breaks to ensure safety. I respect each client’s homes, and make sure pets have fresh water, meals on schedule, exercise, attention, and lots of affection. I also make sure to provide detailed updates and photos so owners feel reassured while they’re away.

About: I absolutely love animals and have raised kittens, puppies, chickens and rats. I make it a point to give animals the best care possible and enjoy taking time to walk or play with pups. I am a mum of two kiddos who works from home. I have a great deal of flexibility in my schedule and love to be outside. I approach pets carefully and allow them to check me out before giving them a scritch. I love chatting along with pups on walks and playing tug o war or fetch. I give (approved)treats and reward animals for good behavior.

About: I’ve had cats and dogs my whole life, as well as my own hamster as a child. Some past pets i’ve sat have needed medications or help cleaning themselves, and I was able to provide that with no problems! I have college classes weekday mornings, but i’m available to take care of your precious pets every other part of the day that you need! I’ll make sure to keep an eye on your pets whenever I let them outside even if you have a fence. Making sure that all of your pets get plenty of time playing is also something important to me.

About: Your dog will be treated like family when he is in my home or on a walk with me. While your dog is in my care he will be my number one priority. I do everything I can to make sure your sweet dog will be treated with great care and love while with me. I want my doggie guests to have a stress free fun time! We will be sure to get in walks and play time or just relaxing in the backyard. I would be willing to take multiple dogs from the same family for overnight stays. I am available for dog walking Monday thru Friday. I am flexible on these times so please contact me with any questions. I am a stay at home Mom but I am normally gone during the week for a few hours a day walking dogs. If you are interested in doggie day care please note that I am gone for a few hours a day. Some days I am only gone for an hour or so. Ruby (my sweet dog) is always home and loves to have doggie friends stay with her. For dog walking I will do any kind of visit you are interested in. Short walk, longer walk or just some playtime in the backyard, whatever works for you and your dog will work for me. We have a 23 year old son who is living and working back home since graduating college. I am a dog lover of all breeds and sizes and look forward to meeting you and your dog. Please feel free to message me with any questions or concerns you may have. I look forward to hearing from you and meeting your dog. We love to take walks in the neighborhood and we love to play enrichment games. I am a certified professional dog trainer and love "testing out" new fun games on my dog and guests we have. I am a certified professional dog trainer. I have been a dog walker and have board dogs for many years. I watch body language of the dog I am working with to make sure the dog is comfortable. I have taken fear free courses and understand that each dog is an individual with their own needs.

About: Animals have always held a special place in my heart. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments—from playful puppies to sweet seniors needing a gentler approach. I’m patient, reliable, and love making pets feel safe, loved, and happy. I also have experience with leash training, basic commands, and supporting dogs with special routines or sensitivities. Whether your pup needs a peaceful walk or a burst of playtime, I’ll meet them where they’re at and care for them like my own. I'm currently switching from full-time teaching to part-time nannying time so my schedule is about to open up greatly starting in June. Currently, I am available Mondays after 3, Tuesdays after 4, Thursdays after 5, and Fridays after 4. Once my other job is more structured, I will be adding significantly more available times throughout the week. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always take time to learn your pet’s routine, preferences, and any special needs so they feel secure and at ease. Whether in your home or on a walk, I stay alert and calm, keeping a close eye on their behavior and surroundings. I use positive reinforcement, never force interactions, and give plenty of love and patience. I treat every home with respect and every pet like family—because that’s what they are.

About: My energy to match each animal is above many other sitters. I love to stay active and go on adventures. Snuggle time and training time is equally important. If your pet loves attention, then we will be a great match. I worked in a Shelter/Daycare and loved every minute of it. I am currently taking care of 2 elderly clients in their home part-time and would love to fill my time with your precious family pet. I would be unable to take your pet in my home at this time. My preference would be in your home which is more comfortable for your pet. OVER 30 MILES TRAVEL +$10 EACH WAY.

Ashley has become the friend that Blueberry and Dunkin most look forward to seeing every week. Both somewhat skittish, the dogs usually take a little while to warm up to new people. They immediately took to Ashley, though, and enjoy their time with her. This is evident in the pictures Ashley takes during her visits. And, the photos are fantastic! We can tell she's a professional photographer! This has provided us, the parents of Blueberry and Dunkin, great peace of mind. We are confident the dogs are well cared for when we're at work and receiving the attention they need. Ashley is very easy to work with and flexible with scheduling. We're lucky to have found her. Blueberry and Dunkin's lives are so much better because Ashley is in them!
