House Sitting Bethalto

About: Hi! My name is Olivia. I’m a 25 year old Pharmacy Technician currently going to school for Psychology. I love pets of all kinds and I’ve been taking care of cats, dogs, reptiles, and amphibians for my whole life! I love animals so much the only thing stopping me from becoming a Vet is having to put them down. I personally have two cats Mischief and Diva that get along very well with other cats. If my cats are a problem, they can easily be put away while your pets are at my home! I’m a very friendly, outgoing, and passionate person just looking for some pets to love, cuddle, and walk in my free time for some extra cash. They say if you love your job you’ll never work a day in your life! I work part-time at CVS Pharmacy located 10 minutes from my house. My hours of availability are: Monday: 5AM-7AM & 6PM-7PM Tuesday/Thursday: 5AM-7AM Wednesday/Friday: 5AM-8AM & 3PM-7PM Saturday/Sunday: All day For those requiring a boarding service, please note that I will not be available to tend to your pet **during the day outside of the specified hours above. I do have a Cat Cam for close monitoring while away. **Pets will continue to be tended to during the evening hours past 7pm. The environment contains a Cat Cam for close monitoring while away, 7ft cat tree, an automated litter box, free feeding kibble, filtered water fountain, many interactive toys, a window mounted bird feeder for some live CatTV, as well as some cat grass and lemonbalm plants to nibble on. I hope to make every experience the most enjoyable experience for both you and your furry friend(s)! My apartment features a sizable grassy courtyard for pets who like to spend some time outdoors, trips outside will always be closely monitored.

“Taylor is the best dog sitter we’ve ever had. She is reliable, caring and clean. We couldn’t ask for a more responsible person to love our little sweeties when we travel.”

About: I worked at a doggy daycare/dog boarding facility, giving me more experience with elder, disable, reactive, and dog aggressive dogs. I understand dog and cat body language. I'm great with both anxious and hyper pets. I have been pet sitting since I was 11, many of these dogs were large and reactive. I can handle any critter you have! years of experience: dog- 8 years cats & birds- 6 years turtles- 3 years pigs, goats, hamsters, rats, rabbits- 1+ year(s) I just moved to alton, I plan to do this full-time. I have open availability. I prefer being able to leave pets for 1-2 hours to visit my own pets BUT, IT IS NOT A NEED! My main concern is your pet's happiness and safety. I want to follow your pet's daily routine as closely as possible while you're away. I always make sure to have many emergency contacts, vet numbers, and action plans if something does go wrong. I send many updates, pictures, and videos throughout the service so you can be at peace.

About: I have dog sat for family friends several times and stayed over at their houses while doing so. I have a dog of my own and I trained her when she was a puppy. I have worked with different sizes of dogs and different levels of obedience. I am currently a college student so my hours will differ depending on the day, but I know that I have have time to fit pet care into my schedule. I am after 12pm on Tuesdays and after 2pm on Thursdays. The remaining days of the week I am pretty much free almost any time during the day. I find that even though my schedule is a little weird that may be beneficial as I can provide pet care at a variety of times. I care for pets in the way that they need to be cared for. I check on them often, make sure they are not anxious, as well as ensure they are getting plenty of exercise. If I am in a clients home I ensure the space is kept clean and the pet is happy and healthy.

About: I have had all kinds of pets throughout my whole life, and absolutely love taking care of all animals. I have experience in pet sitting big and small dogs, including cats. Additionally I have pet sat for animals who need extra care and attention. I am a college students and have a very flexible schedule, so we can discuss and communicate any times that you would need a sitter! I have good experience with crating, leashing, and walking large dogs, and have always done very well. I can easily accommodate to any needs you pet needs in your home, or on a walk.

About: I have experience caring for high-energy dogs, including golden retrievers, managing multiple pets, and handling routines calmly. My experience with young children has strengthened my patience, attentiveness, and reliability as a sitter. Caring for pets is part of my daily routine. I schedule regular walks, playtime, feeding, and attention, ensuring dogs stay active, happy, and well-cared for while I work remotely. I provide attentive care in my client’s home, including regular walks, playtime, feeding, and monitoring. I maintain routines, offer companionship, and ensure pets feel safe, happy, and well-cared for.

“We are a repeat customer for Ginger. Ginger has a love of animals and especially our 80 pound Doodle, Lupin! We can always count on her taking excellent care of Lupin and our home when we are away. Everything is always perfect when we get back home. Looking forward to our next trip in which we will again be using Ginger! Thank YOU!”

“Jason was great! My dog loved him. He was super courteous of my space and gave me updates on how my dog was doing.”

“Janay & Carlton did wonderfully at our place with our critters. We were gone for 10 days and our anxious goldendoodle, young poodle, and teenager cat were very well taken care of. The house was very well kept and everything just as we left it. We will absolutely be rebooking them next time we leave town. Thanks y’all!!”

About: I have taken care of pets since I was 6 from my personal pets to my aunts or neighbors I’ve always cared for and adored animals. Caring for pets isn’t just “checking in” to me — it’s making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and understood while you’re away. I DO NOT PET SIT PITBULLS AND I DO CHARGE FOR DAMAGED PROPERTY CAUSED BY PET. I specialize in working with cats (especially shy, anxious, or independent ones who don’t warm up to everyone), but I also provide loving, attentive care for dogs of all sizes and personalities. With my background as a licensed pharmacy technician, I bring an extra level of attention to detail when it comes to medications, routines, and noticing small changes in behavior. Whether your pet needs basic care or a little extra support, I’ve got it covered. I also keep a small pet supply inventory on hand — so if you’re busy or forget something (food, litter, treats, etc.), I can help without it turning into a stressful situation. You’ll always get consistent updates, photos, and honest communication so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. I treat every pet like they’re my own — with patience, structure, and a lot of love. I am currently a stay at home mom, so your pets can get most of my undivided attention from me and my daughter who also adores animals. I do not have a fenced yard, but i have a big back and front yard definitely enough space for any pet to enjoy! I let my daughter play out there while I watch.

“Brad was very gentle and good with Petey. Brad provided updates and pics. Was very thorough. And Petey who can sometimes be anxious was calm! Highly recommend Brad”

I have access to a car and the ability to be flexible with timing and distance as well, just contact me! I can work with any number and any kind of dog!

This means I am more than happy to take on any responsibility/task requested, such as administering medication, engaging in frequent or constant activity, intently monitoring an animal for an extended period of time, etc. beyond, of course, walking & relieving your best friend(s)! I will always provide dilligent and careful care of both your pets and your home.

“Ramona was a wonderful sitter for our two pups. She is extremely responsive and communicates frequently. We felt very comfortable having her in our home while we were away and our dogs fell in love with her. She sent lots of photos and videos of our pups and actively played with them in the house and our backyard. Ramona truly made sure they were cared for when we had a family emergency and had to leave the state quickly. I absolutely recommend her if you need someone trust worthy and honest!”

“Diane was great and we are grateful for her. She took excellent care of our girl Ruby and communicated well providing frequent updates. We will definitely request her to watch our Ruby in the future.”

About: Hi, I'm Raina! I love caring for dogs and cats and have years of experience, including with my late dog Coco, who lived to 15. I offer pet sitting at my home with a secure, fenced-in backyard, ensuring a safe and fun environment. I take animal care seriously, providing consistent, loving, and responsible attention, including any needed medical care. You can trust that your pets will receive the same love and protection I gave to Coco, with plenty of photo updates to keep you connected. I look forward to caring for your furry family members! I am usually working from home so I will be available to care for your pets. I am available for boarding on weekends and weekdays. I have a fenced yard and a friendly cat to keep your pet company. I ensure top-notch care by carefully boarding pets that I believe will do well in my house. To provide the best experience, I would need to know your pet's daily routines, medication requirements, and any other special needs.

About: I have been active for the past fourteen years with not only dog training, but pet and house sitting as well. I have had experience with all sizes, breeds and ages. It is my priority to keep your pet safe and have a positive experience whether it is during daily walks or weekend stays. I have traveled the country and internationally several times for competitions in agility. It adds a level of precision, caution and care to make sure everything is in place and the pet arrives safely. I hope I can make a positive impact in your pets life! I am a recent graduate of Saint Louis University and just started my career in radiology at Saint Louis Children’s Hospital. I am currently shifting between overnights and day shifts, but would love to meet your pet in between! In a clients home it is important to establish a trust as it is their private space. Being able to take care of their pet it is important to treat a clients space with respect and care as well. I hope that there is never concern when I pick up or drop off for care.

“We are 100% pleased/satisfied with Megan’s care of Dude. He weighs 100 lbs and will jump on people and get mouthy when he meets some people. He eventually calms down, but depending upon the person it can take awhile. Megan quickly got him under control. She was loving and was able to get him follow her commands. She happily came to meet him before her stay with him and easily walked him. We were very comfortable with him in her care. In addition she is a wonderful human being who is actively involved in her community. I enjoyed meeting and talking with her.”
