Dog Sitting Belleville

About: I’ve had dogs in my life for over 20 years, from childhood through adulthood, and have personally cared for five dogs over that time. Being around dogs has always been a big part of my life, so I understand the attention, patience, exercise, and love that goes into making sure they’re happy and comfortable. My current dog, Reyna, is a loving 4-year-old Micro Bully/Frenchie mix with plenty of personality. Caring for her has given me even more hands-on experience with daily walks, feeding routines, playtime, exercise, and understanding a dog’s individual needs and behaviors. I’m comfortable with different personalities, energy levels, and routines, and I know how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pet. Whether I’m stopping in for a visit, going for a walk, or spending more time with them while you’re away, I’ll treat your pet with the same patience, attention, and care I give my own. I work remotely and have a very flexible daily schedule, which makes it easy for me to fit pet care into my routine. Even on days when I have meetings scheduled, I have plenty of flexibility throughout the day for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and spending quality time with your pets. I do train a couple of evenings during the week, but it shouldn’t interfere with providing consistent and reliable care. Working from home gives me the ability to plan around each pet’s normal routine rather than expecting them to adjust to mine. Whether your pet needs attention during the workday, a midday walk, or care while you’re away, I can be flexible and make sure they’re getting the time and attention they need. My home is already set up with pets in mind. My cats have plenty of comfortable spaces throughout the apartment, including a cat tower, a window perch, and different areas where they can relax or have their own space. My dog also has access to a dog park within my apartment complex, which makes regular exercise, playtime, and outdoor breaks easy and convenient. My dog and cats are all comfortable around each other and live together peacefully. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I understand how important it is to keep them comfortable by maintaining the routine and environment they’re already familiar with. I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, litter care, and any other routines you have in place. Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m caring for them in their own home, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, cared for, and get plenty of attention while you’re away.

“Gordon is always great with Asher! He is also really good at communicating and Gordon also makes sure I get some fun pictures of Asher when they are hanging out together. Recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

About: Hi! My name is Hayward, and caring for dogs has been a part of my everyday life for years. I currently own multiple dogs, including American Pit Bull Terriers and French Bulldogs, so I’m comfortable with different breeds, sizes, and personalities. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, or simply needs someone patient and dependable to check in while you’re away, I’ll treat them like one of my own. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, so I’ll provide updates, photos, and plenty of attention to give you peace of mind. I’m experienced with energetic dogs, strong pullers, and multi-dog households. My goal is to make every walk and every visit safe, fun, and stress-free while giving your dog the love and attention they deserve. I look forward to meeting you and your best friend! I currently have flexible availability throughout the week and am available for dog walks and drop-in visits during the day, evenings, and weekends. I can accommodate morning, midday, afternoon, and evening visits depending on your pet’s needs. I’m reliable, flexible, and committed to giving every pet the attention and care they deserve. I treat every pet as if they were my own. During each visit, I make sure they have fresh water, food if requested, bathroom breaks, exercise, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. I follow each owner’s routine and instructions carefully to help pets feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. Safety is always my top priority, and I’ll provide photo and text updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.

“Kayla provided piece of mind while we were away caring for your boy. I have no complaints would love to book again”

“Caitlin was so great!! She was super quick to respond and attentive to all of my cat’s needs. My cat is timid, but Caitlin was so patient and caring. Caitlin also made sure to send lots of photos and detailed reports. Would definitely recommend!”

“Nicolle is amazing! She did a great job taking care of our cats while we were away. She followed all the instructions, was very kind and communicative and the cats felt comfortable with her. She also took care of our apartment. Highly recommended!”

“Jade did a great job with drop-in visits for George. She was dependable and communicative throughout, and we really appreciated her letting us know in advance when she was running late on one of the visits. George was well cared for, and everything was handled smoothly overall. We felt comfortable having her in our home.”

About: Our Why? We have Huskies, and while still offering our service to other breeds, we highlight that it takes a fellow Husky owner to understand what a Husky needs. Despite their mischievous shenanigans, Houdini escape attempts, endless fur-sheddings, high-pitched vocalizations, bubbly, energized personalities, and hyperactive frolicking, we adore huskies. We understand finding experienced, dependable, loving, and trustworthy caregivers for your Husky isn't easy. That's why we are here to help. We currently have two friendly young huskies (one male and one female- fixed and crate-trained). We also have experience with English bulldogs, Sharpeis, Chow-Chows, Labs, Doodles, and Boxers. We only offer care for dogs based upon the comfortability of the match to our pet-care style and demeanor. We love our pets as we will love yours. We are focused on weekends, holidays, and summer care. We are open to possible weekday arrangements if your dog is crate-trained. Before booking us, a drop-by visit is required to test the compatibility of all humans and dogs. A few things: Special note-while we have never owned a French bulldog, we are particularly interested in learning to care for this breed. Your pet must be spayed or nurtured to receive boarding in our home. Also, we are sorry but we cannot offer care for full or mixed Pit Bull breeds. How does pet care fit into your daily and weekly lives? Our pets receive two meals a day, comprising dry food and water. Our pets are crate-trained and remain crated when owners are away. Most of the time, there is an adult in the house. Our dogs can access a large fenced backyard with green grass and trees. Our dogs walk with owners through nearby Branch Brooke Park and visit the dog park almost daily. Our dogs are crated during adult meal times and sleep in the main bedroom on the floor, side couch, or end of bed at night. We maintain a clean home and provide puppy pads during inclement weather to avoid mud and chaos. Pets have access to some rooms, but not all rooms in the house. Toys and treats are provided regularly. Linens on beds where animals may sleep are washed and switched out regularly. Our gate is blocked off on both sides because huskies are known for escaping. Our pets have ID collars and ID dog tags and wear GPS trackers during the day. Our dogs are up-to-date on immunizations and have been spayed/neutered. We don't hit our dogs with our hands or objects but use basic word commands. Training dogs is always a work in progress. They are both loved for their uniqueness. We only plan to care for pets in our home. We have a large and welcoming home.

“Claudia was great! Communicated with me the entire tire and was very patient when we had issues with our remote door lock system. Would recommend and happily use her services again.”

About: Animals have always been a major part of my life, and my experience caring for them goes beyond just basic pet sitting. I have volunteered at animal shelters, where I gained hands-on experience walking and handling dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. This has taught me how to read body language, build trust quickly, and make every walk safe and enjoyable for each dog’s individual needs. I also have personal experience as a foster parent to cats. I successfully helped one of my fosters find her forever home, and I proudly became a “foster fail” with another who I couldn’t imagine letting go. I currently care for a blind cat, which has deepened my understanding of patience, consistency, and creating a safe, predictable environment for special-needs pets. In the past, I also cared for a cat with feline leukemia who was incredibly special to me, and I made sure he was always comfortable, loved, and supported. My background has given me a strong sense of compassion, responsibility, and intuition when it comes to animals. I treat every pet like my own, and I understand how important it is for pet parents to feel complete peace of mind while they’re away. I am currently working per diem, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for pet care. I am also in a season of exploring my passions and focusing on work that feels meaningful to me. Pet care is something I truly enjoy, and I love building trust with every animal I meet. I care for pets in clients’ homes by following their normal routines as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, litter care, playtime, and any medications. I adjust to each pet’s personality and needs, whether they’re social or need space. I also keep the home clean, secure, and provide updates so pet parents feel at ease.

About: Hello! My name is Emma, and I’m a 24-year-old dog lover and dog mom to my dog, Marcus. Dogs have been a huge part of my life since high school, and over the years I’ve cared for both my own pets and dogs belonging to friends and family. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities—from playful puppies to senior dogs who need extra patience and care. I also helped care for my family’s German Shepherd, Kookie, who taught me so much about the love, loyalty, and responsibility that come with being a pet owner. I understand that every dog is unique and deserves individualized care. Whether your pup enjoys long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or simply having someone nearby, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. My goal is always to treat your pet the same way I treat my own dog—with patience, kindness, love, and plenty of attention. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member so I’ll do everything in my power to provide a safe, positive, and caring experience for both you and your pet. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy. I currently work part-time as a physical therapy aide and attend school part-time in the evenings, which allows me to maintain a flexible schedule for pet care throughout the week. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, doggy day care, and house sitting in your home. My class schedule is Monday and Tuesday evenings, and I work Wednesday and Thursday afternoons as well as Saturday mornings, which means I am available during many daytime hours and can provide reliable care before and after my commitments. I understand how important it is to keep pets on their normal routine, so I do my best to follow feeding schedules, exercise needs, medication instructions, and any other preferences you have for your pet. I am dependable, communicative, and happy to send photo and video updates so you can feel connected to your furry family member while you’re away. Whether your dog needs a walk, companionship during the day, or overnight care, my goal is to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care, and I take that responsibility seriously. Before every booking, I take the time to learn about your dog’s routine, personality, likes, dislikes, and any special needs they may have. I am comfortable caring for puppies, senior dogs, and both small and large breeds. During walks and visits, I stay attentive to ensure your dog’s safety and comfort at all times. When caring for pets in your home, I treat both your pet and your home with the same respect and care that I would want for my own. My goal is simple: to make sure your pet feels happy, safe, loved, and stress-free while you’re away.

About: Currently a medical student. I've been the primary care provider for our family dog and my best friend "Bama" for the past 11 years. I'm also the go-to friend and family dog sitter whenever the need arises. I have earned trust due to my love of life as a biologist and as a respected Eagle Scout. I know each life form has its own beautiful soul and should be treated with kindness and respect for that reason. I have pet care experience with dogs, cats, mice, and fish. I am currently a medical school, therefore, unemployed and have a lot of time to walk, play with, and give long belly scratches to furry friends. Animals make me extremely happy, so their happiness is also of utmost importance to me. Outside of my own personal experiences interacting with pets, I have also taken many courses in animal behavior and the biological basis of animal learning. I have a very solid understanding of why animals do the things they do and this allows me to adapt to whatever circumstances and/or needs of the pets or animals that I interact with. Whether that be crating a dog, training a rebellious puppy, or interactions with other dogs.

“Deliris was a great help! She took her time with my kitties and gave them some very needed interaction. She is a great communicator and never left me wondering about what was going on. I would definitely book her again!”

“I have been meaning to leave Molly a review for a long time! I’ll summarize why she’s an incredible cat sitter below. 1) You can tell she really cares about our cats. 2) She always sends fun updates. 3) She put a lot of effort into winning over our super shy cat who has NEVER come out for a cat sitter. Now he rolls over for belly rubs when she comes over! (How do I know? See point 2) This last time really takes the cake though and is what compelled me to write a review. I made an error on the booking and missed a whole day in the middle of our vacation. Molly reached out ahead of time and asked about the missing date, which I appreciated SO MUCH because I would have been worried sick about the boys being left alone or without food for a full day. I’m so glad she reached out and the peace of mind I get for knowing my cats are in good hands is worth everything. If she’s looking for the extra business, you should absolutely book her for your pet sitting services.”

“If I could leave more than 5 stars, I would. Nicole was exactly what we needed! Our pup can be shy, but she immediately loved Nicole, and Nicole quickly mastered all of our girl’s quirks and routines. We can’t recommend Nicole enough!”

“Melanie came by for a visit just to get to know my kitty, Jinjin before I go away for a week. Melanie was great and was able to get Jinjin out of hiding which was awesome and very reassuring. I highly recommend her!”

About: I’ve grown up with pets my entire life, always having a dog and currently caring for four cats. I’ve raised baby kittens, which taught me patience, responsibility, and gentle care. I’m also interested in pursuing a veterinary career, reflecting my commitment to animal well-being. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine through feeding, cleaning, playtime, and quality time. I’m available for boarding on weekends and after 3 PM on weekdays, and I’m flexible to adjust when needed. In my home, I care for pets with patience and genuine love. I take pet care seriously but always make sure animals feel comfortable, relaxed, and happy through consistent routines, attention, and gentle care.

“Samantha was great in checking in with me prior to her taking care of Nikki and was prompt in sending me photos and updates in caring for my dog.”
