House Sitting Boonshill

About: I am a certified groomer & dog trainer, have also worked as a veterinary tech. I go above and beyond to give great care to furbabies. I can administer medication, brush pet as needed, trim nails, do some dog training if needed, transport to vet or grooming appointments and home. There will be extra charges for these but are not excessive and worth it. Since I will mainly be taking care of your pet in your home for pet care, just know that I will take care of your home and pet as if was my own. If you just need walking I will be happy to get your pup outside weather permitting for a short brisk walk or longer leisure one. If your pet is nervous or unsure of new people, I know how to go slow and give them the time needed to get to know me. Pet sitter/dog walker has become my retirement work. I am pretty flexible with my schedule and most days can do last minute work. I truly love the work that I do I am very aware of the needs of clients. One of my past experiences is owning a boarding kennel/grooming. I follow instructions well, so even the smallest request is big to me.

“Maria took excellent care of my babies and house. She provided daily updates with pictures. My house was left in perfect condition. I would definitely recommend her and will be using her for future visits.”

About: I've had a familiarity with animals since a child. I enjoy speaking( even though they dont speak back) and giving attention to pets to build a loving, trusting, bond I Am not very busy in general so am able to take care of companions at almost any time of the day or night as needed. I do not offer services pertaining to bringing the pet to my home, however, on our first meet, I will learn and cater to the best interest you have for your pet's care in your absence

“Debbie did a fantastic job taking care of my 4 dogs over the weekend. She was so personable, was excited to meet each dog, and lived on them like they were her own dogs. Debbie also took care of the house, straightened up prior to our return, and even washed the cloths I had left in the washer. I will definitely request Debbie next time I need a sitter.”

About: Hello! I’m a life long animal lover and owner who understands that every furry friend has their own specific needs. Whatever your pet needs, I’m always happy to accommodate and ensure they feel safe, happy, and taken care of. I’ve taken care of family and friends animals all my life. From bunnies to Saint Bernard’s I’ve seen just about everything. I’m a college student that lives close to campus, so even with classes, I’ll be able to ensure your furry friend is taken care of! I am currently a softball player in college. While my weekdays can be a little busy, I live close to campus and have few in-person classes. Because of softball practice, I am not home for 3-4 hours most afternoons. I have an open yard and live walking distance from the Pulaski dog park. Your pet will have inside and outside time with ample opportunities to play, potty, and relax. I have a 2 year old female Lab in the home that loves to play and is quite energetic. Your pet will be cared for as one of my own and will be blessed with toys, treats, company, and love. I will openly accommodate your pets needs as I know every pet is different.

About: I've had dogs and cats and taken care of dogs and cat all my life. I've had experience with puppies, Rottweilers, Great Danes, German Shepherds, Blue Heelers, Herding breeds, and small and medium sized mixed, rescue dogs. I also have a baby of my own, his name is TikoMan, and he is an energetic, loving border collie. Tiko is very smart and knows all kinds of tricks that I taught him, he is a picky eater, gets lots of cuddles, loves to run and play, and goes on all the trips we take. He loves the water! I have experience teaching puppies tricks, dealing with multiple dogs and cats at a time, understanding their overall needs (based on breed differences as well), and handling senior dogs and cats that may need additional care needs, medications, and assistance. I'm currently looking for full-time pet care for your needs - available at any time! I have a 3 bedroom home with an acre worth of yard if you need me to sit in my home. I can walk your pets, sit in your home for you to make your pet(s) most comfortable, and adhere to any feeding schedules, play, cleaning, and other needs to keep them happy! I have a big home and yard (it is unfenced but your dog will be okay if able to be off leash, or I can make sure he/she is leashed for peace of mind. I will adhere to any feeding, walking, and other needs per requested schedules, and am available to come to your home if preferred as I understand many would like to watch cameras and make sure all is well with your fur baby!

About: I have take care of many different pups of all breeds and personalities. This includes my own, family and friends, volunteering at shelters and even the local dog wash.

I'm good at keeping pups at a good walking pace, I love playing with pets to keep them active, and I'll set extra timers and keep set schedules for your pet's eating habits.

“Damian did a great job taking care of my dog and house sitting while I was on an extended trip. My dog got along great with Damian. He took Finn for a walk at the park and in the neighborhood. While house sitting and providing dog care, Damian swept the floor, rain the dishwasher, and laundered the towels before leaving. He was trustworthy and respectful in my home. I recommend Damian highly.”

“Nic is amazing! You can really tell she truly loves animals and makes sure your babies are loved and cared for when they are with her! She handled my 3 big babies with ease! They were spoiled with homemade treats and roasted pumpkin! They were sound asleep the whole day after we picked them up, I can tell they had lots of fun. We will definitely use Nic again and highly recommend her!”

About: I work with animals everyday, so I definitely know their behaviors and know how to not cross boundaries with your babies! Their comfort is my priority! I will have two whole days to which I can take care of your pets 24/7! I work with animals the rest of the week so it definitely wouldn’t be much different! When I am at your house I will take great care to not touch ANYTHING I am not permitted to touch! I will follow instructions very intently.

About: I’ve loved dogs and animals for as long as I can remember. I started learning about dog training when I was around 10 years old, checking out books and videos from the library because I was fascinated by how dogs communicate and respond to people. I have experience with breeds such as Boxers, Poodles, German Shepherds, and Pit Bulls, and I’m very patient with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I believe calm, confident energy and clear communication are so important when caring for pets. What sets me apart is how much I genuinely enjoy giving animals a great experience. On walks, I don’t rush dogs. I let them sniff, explore, and enjoy themselves while making sure they feel safe and loved. I’m patient, attentive, and treat every pet with kindness and respect. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because animals are already such a big part of my life. I’m used to planning my day around walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and making sure pets feel cared for. I enjoy being active and getting outside, so dog walks and drop-in visits are something I genuinely look forward to. I’m patient, attentive, and happy to give pets the time they need, whether that means a good walk, extra snuggles, playtime, or simply keeping them company. I care for pets by following their normal routine as closely as possible and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I pay close attention to each owner’s instructions, including feeding, potty breaks, walks, medications, crate routines, and any special preferences. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and make sure everything is left clean and secure. I give pets fresh water, attention, playtime, walks, and patience based on their personality and needs. I also enjoy sending updates so owners know their pet is happy and well cared for.

“Our giant doofus of a dog loved her. She took care of not only the dog and cat but also two dramatic pigs and two stubborn goats. When we had last-minute scheduling hiccups she was flexible and understanding. We're grateful we found her!”

About: Hello, my name is Alexandra . I've always had pets, and in the last three years, I've started caring for others as well as my own. I've worked with dogs of many sizes and types, including those with specific needs. I'm currently unemployed, so caring for your pet would be my full-time job! Drop-off and pick-up times for daycare are from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Any time after 7 p.m. must be reserved for boarding and pickup the next morning. I also provide prolonged stays. I live in an apartment with a dog park on the same floor as me, so my pet and I spend a lot of time running about and playing! She is a very social dog that enjoys companionship and exchanges toys with other dogs.

About: With years of hands-on experience caring for both energetic puppies and aging senior pets, I bring patience, attention to detail, and genuine love for animals. I’ve administered medications, handled special dietary needs, and trained basic commands. My goal is to create a safe, loving environment while you’re away, so your pets feel calm, happy, and well-cared for. I treat every animal as if they were my own, ensuring consistent routines and lots of affection. Whether it’s long walks, belly rubs, or managing health needs, I’m here to help your pet thrive. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I structure my day around feeding times, potty breaks, walks, and play sessions. Whether I’m working remotely or running errands, I make sure pets receive consistent attention and companionship throughout the day. I’m flexible and can easily adjust my schedule to meet the specific needs of each pet, including early mornings, evenings, or multiple check-ins per day. I prioritize safety and comfort above all. In my home or yours, I create a calm, pet-friendly environment free from hazards. I follow all care instructions closely—whether it’s administering medication, monitoring food intake, or reinforcing training. I build trust through gentle, consistent interaction, always respecting each pet’s personality and boundaries. If I’m in your home, I treat it with the utmost respect and keep your pet’s routine as normal as possible to reduce stress.
