House Sitting in Bonne Terre

“Cathy stayed with Tess for 5 days and nights. She was the best!! She took Tess for a walk every day, sent me pics and videos, gave her medicine, took care of my flowers & plants and it was obvious that my fur baby loved her!!! Cathy is my forever dog/house sitter!!!!”

“I was very nervous about getting a sitter for my dogs because Willow has a lot of anxiety and is very reactive. I scheduled several initial visits with Haley so she could get to know Willow. I left town and felt very comfortable leaving my babies with Haley. She did great! She was very patient and kind to my Willow. I recommend Haley to anyone who is looking for a dependable and kind dog sitter. Rosana”

About: My house is full of love and my dogs will surely keep your pets entertained they are friendly with almost everyone and the indoor and indoor/outdoor cats have been around many dogs and other animals with no problems in addition the rodents and birds areas can be closed off so your pet has no experience with those animals to keep all pets happy and healthy. I grew up on a farm so I have experience with cows, goats, rabbits, geese, ducks, chickens, guinea pigs, hamsters, dogs and cats. When I turned 17 I started my zoo as my father calls it, I have 11 animals. I started with a simple one cat and one dog. In 2023 I increased the number from 2 pets to 5 getting a Chinchilla and two cats one showing up at my front door and another surrendered to me after I friend couldn’t care for him anymore. Then in the beginning of 2025 another friend moved and couldn’t bring her birds so we took in 3 parakeets which they do better in pairs so we bought one to make it 4 and then a couple months later we were finally able to find a second chinchilla so that nether was lonely because they are also better in pairs also. Lastly number 11 I had been thinking about for awhile I always wanted a lot of dogs being a big dog person so my 11th pet we got at the beginning of 2026 she is a 6 month old border collie. I currently work part-time in the evenings so I’m free every morning and all weekend depending on the weekend. I can also be available any day by request but my days off are always Sunday, Monday, Friday, Saturday. I live in a rural area with a large space for dogs to play we have a 5 year old small medium pit-terrier mix and a 6 month old border collie. I also have a variety of pets so I have knowledge on how to care for birds, rodents, fish, cats and of course dogs large and small.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. I’m a Big advocate on animal rescue. I have watched friends and families animals when they go out of town. I currently work part time as a server. I would like to transition into pet care full-time. after the new year. Making myself available to come to you is something I think is important so you and your pet feel more comfortable in your own surroundings. I would care for your pet in your home along with your pet routine. I know how important it is for your pet to stay on their routine. With you being gone it will help ease pet anxiety, if they have it.

“Lily was super awesome and would highly recommend. She came to meet my 2 pups before I left for vacation and updated me with pictures while I was gone. Also brought them some extra toys she had and some treats as well as cleaned up some extra messes the dogs had made. Will definitely book her to watch the pups again.”

About: I’ve stayed home alone with cats and dogs and had to take care of them. I absolutely love cats and dogs and always go to pet stores to look at them. I always walk up to stray cats and dogs to feed them. I’ve never had any problems from family members in the past from sitting their own animals. I’m currently a student in college. Trying to make a living for myself. And I figured I love cats and dogs so why not watch them and earn money! Back home I have a dog and a puppy that play around a fenced yard. I have been around them on my own waking up early, to feed them and let them outside to go potty or play. And then have to watch them all day.

About: I have always had at least one animal in my home since I was born. My grandmother showed dogs and I would often help her get them trained and groomed. She was also an amazing professional dog groomer and I spent a large chunk of my time with her and learning from her. I like puppies but I have a love for older dogs. I have experience administering meds and injections. I work part time, on the weekends and I go to college full time. In the summer I work 5 days a week but based on your needs I can fit your furry friend into my schedule. I like to have a little list of things that you would think is important like the vet you want them to go to if your baby gets hurt, a feeding schedule, and anything that you may have concerns about while I stay at your house. I treat all of the animals I watch as they are my own babies and think it’s important to gain the trust of them while at your home, so they feel more comfortable.

About: I take time to understand each dog’s personality, energy level, and specific needs. Whether that means structured playtime for high-energy pups or quiet companionship for seniors, I adapt to them. I prioritize safety, communication, and providing updates so you always feel confident your dog is in loving, capable hands I work full-time, but I maintain a consistent daily routine that allows me to provide dependable pet care. I’m available for morning and evening walks, feedings, and quality time, and I make sure pets receive attention, exercise, and affection before and after work. On weekends, I have more flexibility for extended walks, playtime, and extra care When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect both your space and your pet’s established routine. I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walk routes, medication needs, and house rules. I keep doors secured, monitor surroundings on walks, and ensure pets are always safely leashed or supervised. My goal is to maintain a calm, familiar environment so your pet experiences minimal disruption while you’re gone

About: My name is Alexandra and I'm currently work as an Operations Specialist for the The Animal Rescue Site. Through my company I was able to travel to Puerto Rico and help rebuild an animal shelter that housed both cats and dogs. I love being around animals, especially dogs and I cherish the time I get to spend with them. I am committed to providing the most effective, convenient solutions to dog training needs, walking, providing medication, feeding, live in pet care, and more. I do believe training dogs is all about consistency and I would love to learn the methods you use or provide some advice to help teach your dog how to lead a successful doggy lifestyle. I'm here to help clients to enjoy easier lives with their canine companions!

About: I have had pets all my life. Cats, dogs, reptiles, fish, hampsters.. the list goes on. I was in Human healthcare and found its not much different. I can help with your pet care needs. My work schedule can be flexible so I can adjust it to fit most pet needs so you can plan that vacation free from worry. I have a fenced in area and a designated space in my house I call the “pet room” . My house resembles someone who has a 2 yr old but instead of kid toys and beds it’s dog and cat toys.

About: I have experience in ALL animals even farm animals. I have loved animals from a very young age. Animals are my specialty. There is nothing I love more. I have full time availability to care for your pets! I work part time but pets are allowed at my work if necessary.

I have a fenced yard and a nice pet friendly neighborhood to go on walks. I can come to my clients home as well and take them for walks or feed and water them. I am available to do anything.

About: What sets me apart is the level of genuine care, patience, and attention I give every pet as if they were my own. I understand that every animal has a different personality, comfort level, routine, and emotional need, so I focus on creating a calm, safe, loving environment where pets feel secure while their owners are away. I’m especially good with anxious, shy, high-energy, and routine-oriented pets because I’m very observant, patient, and consistent. I pay close attention to behavior changes, body language, eating habits, medication schedules, and overall comfort to make sure pets stay happy and stress-free. I also have experience with: Senior pet care and slower-paced walks Puppies and younger pets who need patience, structure, and consistency Maintaining feeding schedules and routines Providing companionship, playtime, and emotional comfort Keeping homes clean, organized, and safe during stays Giving regular photo/video updates so owners feel reassured People describe me as dependable, calm under pressure, trustworthy, and easy to communicate with. I know how important it is to leave your pet with someone who is not only responsible, but genuinely caring and attentive. My goal is always to make both pets and owners feel comfortable, safe, and confident. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I have a very open and flexible schedule. I’m available throughout the day and week for walks, drop-ins, boarding, feeding schedules, playtime, companionship, and overnight care when needed. Since I’m home often, pets receive plenty of attention, supervision, consistency, and care rather than being left alone for long periods. I enjoy creating a calm, comfortable environment where pets can feel safe, relaxed, and part of the household routine. I’m also dependable with maintaining routines such as feeding times, potty breaks, exercise, medications, and regular updates for owners. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so I make sure each pet gets individualized attention, patience, affection, and proper care based on their needs and personality. I provide a calm, safe, and structured environment where pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, supervision, and affection. Since I live on a farm with open space and a peaceful setting, pets have room to enjoy fresh air, walks, playtime, and a lower-stress environment while still being safely supervised at all times. In my home, I focus on keeping pets comfortable by maintaining their normal routines as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise, medications, rest time, and any special instructions from the owner. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality, energy level, and comfort needs so they feel secure and cared for while away from home. For walks and activity, I adjust based on the pet’s age, health, and temperament — whether that means active play for energetic dogs, slower walks for senior pets, or extra patience with anxious animals. Safety is always my top priority. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect both the pet’s routine and the owner’s space. I make sure pets receive reliable care, companionship, exercise, fresh food and water, clean-up, and lots of attention while helping maintain a calm, clean environment. I also provide regular photo and video updates so owners can feel reassured while they’re away. What’s most important to me is making pets feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for no matter where they are.

About: I have babysit my family and friends fur babies over night for several years now . I enjoy spending the time with them and enjoy taking them on long walks and having play time with them. I have four dogs of my own that I take care of. I work for amazon right now monday thru thursday. Iam opened to helping out with customers pets friday tru sunday. I feed and water my dogs everyday, plus play with them to. If its a nice out i let my dogs choose if they want to stay outside or not until i get home from work, but they are inside on nasty days. They do come in at night and sleep with us. I give them their owns baths and trim their own nails. At the clients home I take their dog outside on a nice day to play and take their dogs on a walk. Before I would leave the clients home, I would make sure that their fur babies would have water and food . When we are on walks I make sure I carry water with me for their fur babies.

“Madison was an exceptional Caretaker for my elderly cat while I was on vacation. In addition to his basic care and needs, she gave him medication twice daily. She took the time to send daily updates and pictures, that assured me he was in great hands!! I could also see that he greatly enjoyed her company too! She went above and beyond, allowing me to relax and enjoy my vacation knowing he was getting the best care and companionship. I will absolutely book again with Madison and I highly recommend her!!!”

About: HIGHLIGHTS: -Insured -Comfortable w/ large and small dogs and knows the different requirements in care -No kids in home -Would love to bring my friendly chihuahua for in-home sits -Dog kennels provided for when necessary, no need to lug yours with you -38 year old home owner w/ privacy fence in back yard -Work from home sitter -Regular updates and pictures -Has read dog psychology and taken dog training classes with my dog. I believe pets deserve respect and autonomy and I'll do my best to treat your babies like I treat my own boys. I've read a few dog psychology books so I do have a good understanding of different communication styles that dogs may have and I have experience with reactive dogs and elderly dogs as well. When I walk your dog, I have no problems communicating with strangers and setting boundaries. I am very protective of my animal clients peace and safety. I always err on the side of caution. For sitting in your home, I do bring my 6lb chihuahua. If your dog needs to be separated from small animals, I can easily accommodate that in my home. With pets, I am gentle but firm and it creates an environment that dogs love. I love playing with dogs and engaging their minds. I also communicate with your pet to ensure they are happy (which room they prefer, how they like to be pet, how they like to be played with) and I tell them every day that you're coming back. I genuinely love each animal that I interact with and treat them how I'd want them to be treated if they were mine. I'm also punctual and communicative. My late dog was also reactive and could be aggressive, so I have experience dealing with large dogs that have strong boundaries. I work from home so I am available to stay with your pet all day long! When I do leave, it's usually never for more than 4 hours and I have a L crate and an XL crate that your babies can stay in if needed. For sitting in your home, I do bring my 6lb chihuahua. If your dog needs to be separated from small animals, I can easily accommodate that in my home. Please choose the service best suited to you and your pets needs. I have a large backyard with a privacy fence on all four sides. I have a 20 y/o cat and a xxs chi puppy but there is a pet gate that keeps the house in two parts. Your pet will not interact with my pets at all (unless otherwise discussed). Dogs have their own room and will be allowed free roam of one half of my home. It's a large space.
