House Sitting Boles

“We had a fantastic experience with Katie while she cared for our dog Gary and cat Barley during a 2-night trip. She stayed at our home and made the whole process completely stress-free. Her communication was excellent—she kept us updated regularly and sent adorable photos of both pets, which we really appreciated. It was clear they were happy and comfortable in her care. We came home to a clean house and two very content animals. We’d absolutely book with Katie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful pet sitter!”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog and cat sitter! We have used Catherine twice as our sitter. From the start, communication was clear, prompt, and professional. While we were away, she stayed in our home and treated it — and our fur babies — like her own. We received updates when requested, a photo, and thoughtful check-in that gave us peace of mind. It was obvious our pets were not just being “watched,” but truly cared for and engaged with. Zoie who can be particular was on schedule and fell right back into her routine when we returned . Trusting someone with your castle and your pet is a big deal. She exceeded expectations in every way. We would absolutely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for dependable, attentive, and genuinely compassionate care.”

About: As a lifelong dog lover with 10 years of pet care experience, I know how important it is to find someone you can genuinely trust with your furry family members! I have firsthand experience caring for multiple dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and individual needs. From energetic, playful pups who love staying active to sweet senior dogs who need a little extra patience and attention, I understand that every dog deserves care tailored to them. I’m especially familiar with senior dog care, including assisting dogs with limited mobility, maintaining medication routines, and accommodating special feeding needs. I’m comfortable managing multiple dogs, following detailed care instructions, and making sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m dependable, attentive, and a big believer in maintaining your pet’s normal routine while you’re away. Whether that means walks, playtime, extra snuggles, or simply providing a calm and comfortable environment, my goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is in caring hands. I treat every dog like they’re one of my own and understand just how much trust goes into leaving your best friend with someone new! I work remotely full-time, which gives me the flexibility to incorporate pet care into my daily routine! As a pet owner myself, I’m already accustomed to balancing work with feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I understand that every pet has their own routine, and I’m happy to work with owners to maintain as much consistency as possible. My flexible work environment also allows me to accommodate different care needs throughout the week and on weekends, depending on availability. Whether your pet needs an energetic walk, a quick check-in, or some extra companionship, I strive to provide dependable, attentive care that fits their needs! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities! As someone with multiple pets of my own, including experience caring for senior dogs with mobility challenges and specialized routines, I understand how important it is to provide a safe, attentive, and loving environment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make it a priority to respect their space, follow all instructions carefully, and maintain their pet’s established routine. I’m comfortable managing multiple pets, administering owner-provided medications according to instructions, accommodating special feeding schedules, and providing additional assistance to senior pets. I believe communication is essential to building trust, so I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos throughout each visit. I also take time to understand each pet’s personality, boundaries, and individual needs to ensure they feel comfortable and secure. My goal is simple: to care for your pets with the same patience, responsibility, and affection that I give my own!

“Hannah was great! She watched our two golden doodles at our house. Hannah responded quickly and gave updates. She is very responsible and extremely polite. We would definitely use her in the future.”

About: I’ve worked at Fox creek Veterinary Hospital for the past 6 months, and i love animals more than anything! I am equipped to handle all different sized dogs from 5-100 lbs! I work at a pet boarding and doggie daycare facility at a veterinary hospital so even when i’m working i can care for your animals needs! My job has 3 large fenced in yards that your dogs can run around and be free in. I can easily crate your fur babies if needed!

“Abby was amazing! She provided so many updates and pictures. She is by far the best pet sitter I have had. Would definitely recommend her to anyone that wants someone who cares for your animals like they are her own!”

“We had Mallory stay overnight at our house with our senior Persian. Before her stay, she came over for a meet and greet so everyone felt comfortable. It was apparent that she is a very kind and caring person. During her stay she kept us updated with how things were going and pictures. She cleaned up a couple of puking incidents and let us know that Marigold had in fact puked, had been sneezing and hadn’t had a bowel movement. These updates were truly appreciated and I was relieved she was paying attention to things that seemed out of the ordinary. Marigold routinely potties on potty pads and Mallory kept up with those changings which, in my opinion, is above and beyond kitty care. Additionally, Miss Marigold tends to yowl in the nights as she has aged and has reduced vision in one eye. Mallory was patient with those night time needs and brought her back to bed with her to comfort her. Overall, I appreciate the above and beyond care and I recommend her to anyone who has kitties!”

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 taking care of dogs and cats most of my life. From training puppies, to caring for older dogs who have needed round the clock medicine and care and everything in between. I have taken care of kittens/cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, lizards, fish, you name your pet and I have probably come into contact with it at some point. I have always wanted to become a veterinarian, but life took me in other directions, so now I show my love and support for the animal community by helping people take care of their fur babies. I am currently working 5 8hr shifts outside the home, but am available for walks, check-ins and other services! I am off by 215 every day so plenty of time in the evenings. My neighborhood is wonderful, I have plenty of nearby parks, as well as, a walking trail directly in my neighborhood. It is a very pet friendly place, with lots of other pets to interact with and also has a dog park. I usually only do healthy treats for training, but obviously will cater to whatever schedule or routine your animal needs.

“Evelyn was very communicative and took very good care of our girl. Our senior dog has some quirks and special requests, and Evelyn had no issues, making our time away stress free.”

About: I've spent over 40 years caring for animals, from small dogs like Mini Dachshunds and cats to large breeds, including German Shepherds, Rottweilers, Dobermans, Chows, Pitbulls. I currently share my home with a long-haired German Shepherd and a beautiful long-haired domestic cat who are my babies. My daughter is also there while in college & has 2 cats so animals have always been an important part of my life, and to me, they're family, not just pets. In addition to caring for my own animals, I've provided pet sitting for friends and family, including multiple-dog and cat households. One of my most meaningful experiences has been caring for my German Shepherd following a serious attack that left him with very significant injuries. Helping him through his recovery gave me firsthand experience with the patience, attentiveness, and compassion required when an animal needs extra support. I'm comfortable administering oral medications according to instructions, maintaining feeding and exercise schedules, and adapting to each pet's individual personality and needs. Whether your pet is a tiny Dachshund, a large German Shepherd, or a beloved cat, I'll treat them with the same love, respect, and attention I give my own animals. My goal is to make sure you can travel with peace of mind, knowing your pets are safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for. I've always seemed to have a special connection with animals, even those who are normally hesitant around people. There's a little shop I frequent with a resident cat who apparently doesn't warm up to many visitors. One day, she surprised her owner by jumping right into my arms! Moments like that mean the world to me. I've always believed animals are some of the very best judges of character. I currently work an interesting schedule that allows me several consecutive days off. I have a rotating schedule. One week I work Sun-Tues 6am-6pm and the next I work Sun-Wed. The days I work are 12 hr days. But depending on how close you are to my job (Bridgeton area) I could potentially check in on them on my hour lunch and then go there after work at 6pm.. I live in Illinois but I dont plan alot of things this time of year so I have pretty good availability. Shoot me a msg, we can probably work it out. Even holidays. Talk to you soon! :) I believe pets are happiest and most comfortable in their own familiar environment, especially when their family is away. My goal is to maintain their normal routines as closely as possible while providing a safe, loving, and stress-free experience. Before accepting a booking, I like to learn about each pet's personality, daily schedule, feeding instructions, medical needs, and any special behaviors or concerns. I also believe meeting beforehand is important so both the pets and their owners can feel comfortable with me. Safety is always my priority. I'm attentive to securely closing doors and gates, using appropriate leashes during walks, and being mindful of potential hazards. Having cared for my own German Shepherd through a serious recovery, I understand how quickly unexpected situations can arise and how important it is to pay attention to changes in an animal's behavior or well-being. I respect my clients' homes and privacy and will treat their property with the same care I give my own. I also believe communication is essential, so I'm happy to provide regular updates and photos to give owners peace of mind while they're away. Most importantly, I understand that I'm being trusted with two things that mean a great deal to someone: their beloved pets and their home. I take that responsibility seriously.

About: I'm a patient person with an affinity for animals. I've been taking care of dogs since I can remember. Also, I have tons of experience in babysitting, house sitting and even some elder care. Point of story: I will treat your fur baby like it's my own! I work from home as a freelance writer! I have a big apartment that currently has one small dog in it. I thought it would be cool to have more dogs in it! Or to just meet other dogs at their house! I love dogs and that's pretty much it I live in a nice, sub-urby area, and I take my dog Laz on walks through the neighborhood and to the park. I would be happy for your dog to join on those walks! Or if your dog prefers the comfort of their own home, I'm happy to accommodate that as well 😊

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have helped take care of our family dogs since I was a little kid. I’ve also helped care for a few friends’ dogs, so I’m comfortable with dogs of different personalities and needs. I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. I work full time at chick fil a 5 days a week. I usually work mid shifts like 7-4, 8-5, 11-5 about 4 days a week and I always do some type of activity with my dog before I leave as well as feeding and letting him out. After I am always down to having fun with the pups! I have a fenced in backyard with one very playful, sweet pup who wants to be friends with every animal he meets! He’s very energetic so we are always going to the nearest park (which is basically right behind my house) or on a walk or playing in the yard! I also love to take the pups on a joy ride to get treats or just get some breeze!

About: I’ve had dogs since I was 8, and I’ve always loved being around animals! I’ll treat your pets like my own and make sure they get plenty of love, attention, playtime, and cuddles. I’m currently between jobs, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your furry friends the love, attention, and care they deserve! I can be flexible with walks, visits, and playtime to help keep your pets happy and comfortable while you’re away. I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved in their own environment. I’ll stick to their normal routine for feeding, walks, playtime, and potty breaks, while giving them plenty of attention and affection.

“Meredith was a good match for my animals! She was on time and responsive. Since my cat has some medical concerns, it eased my mind having someone with experience look over him!”

“We love Catelyn!! This was our second time using her and it was another great experience. She does a fantastic job caring for our senior, anxious, dog. We know when our sweet boy is with Catelyn he is well taken care of. Her communication is great and she takes wonderful care of our home too. 10/10 would recommend!!”
