“Tee was absolutely fabulous! She was attentive and responsive and our pup just loved her so much!!!! She was respectful and always sent us photos and updates. The house was clean as a button when she left, like no one had even been there! I just can’t say enough good things about her! We will definitely be using her again! Definitely book her!!!”


“When our normal dog watcher was unavailable, Sara stepped in and made my wife and I extremely comfortable to trust her with our two dogs on short notice. Even with the short notice, she came out to meet our boys and answered all of our questions regarding our request for house sitting. Sara was so considerate of our two dogs while house sitting. She made sure to send plenty of photos and was very respectful of our home. We plan on using Sara for any future needs to watch our dogs.”



“Chandra was great with my puppy and was very accommodating despite the fact that my booking was made with short notice. She gave frequent updates and was quick to respond to this worried puppy mama during my first time away. I felt much better knowing Valentine was in Chandra's care. Thank you!!!”


About: I’ve been caring for all my own dogs 40 years, all my grand puppies and friends dogs for over 12 years I love them all I’m retired and mostly have any day or night of the week open.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs every kind for as long as I can remember weather it was for my parents, friends and neighbors. They have trusted in me to make sure they being taken care of I’m currently a stay at home mom and have plenty of time on my hands to care for your fur babies and I’ve also grown up my whole life with animals in my house I have a fenced in yard and and a 6 month old puppy that will keep your fur baby company. I love to play with fur babies

About: I have taken care of pets since I was a child. I have predominantly had dogs and cats. I treat all animals with the utmost love and care. I have had pets through full life cycle so I understand the varying needs based on age. I currently work full time but am off Friday through Sunday so looking for people that need weekend help. I would also be a le to do some evenings during the week. I have a fenced yard and work from home so my dogs are well taken care of. I have the ability to watch, play with, walk and feed animals in your home. I would gladly follow any routine and instructions you have.

About: I am good with cats, dogs and guinea pigs. I can clean out litter boxes, change bedding for guinea pigs and also have extensive experience in caring for a guinea pig's special needs. I’m currently working Mon-Thurs from 8:15am-4:30pm and Friday from 8:15am-12:30pm and I get an hour lunch! So if you ever need me to check in on your fur babies, I can do that! And I can still stay overnight if needed! I will follow instructions how to care for your animals in your home. This can include baths, walks, potty breaks, play time and feeding times.

About: I’ve had English Mastiffs, Great Danes, and mixed breeds since I was little, as well as family friends trusting me to watch their babies since I turned 16. I work as a house keeper Monday-Friday, from 8:30 to 2 with a very flexible schedule! I am able to stop by in the middle of the work day if needed for potty breaks I can make sure all dogs are properly supervised, and put away when I leave if needed. As well as playing with them outside and giving medication.

About: I bring a unique blend of patience, attentiveness, and genuine love for animals that helps me quickly build trust with both pets and their people. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality and needs whether that means keeping a playful pup busy or making sure a senior dog feels safe and comfortable. Here’s a bit about my experience: • Puppy care, leash walking, and reinforcing basic commands • Senior dogs, with gentle handling, slower-paced walks, and medication routines • Special needs pets, providing calm, detail-oriented care • Administering medications (oral, topical, and injectable) • Multi-pet households, managing dynamics so everyone gets love and attention I always prioritize communication I’ll send regular updates and photos so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. I truly treat every animal as if they were my own, creating a calm and loving environment while you’re away. I’m planning to transition out of my hourly job and become a full-time sitter while in school. Balancing classes and work can be a lot, but pet care has always been something that brings me joy and helps me decompress. I carefully plan my schedule to make sure I’m fully present and attentive with every pet I care for. Whether it’s early mornings, evenings, or weekends, I’m committed to providing consistent, loving, and reliable care that fits both your pet’s needs and my routine. I focus on creating a calm, safe, and engaging environment that matches each pet’s routine and comfort level. In my home, I keep things clean, pet-proofed, and stocked with toys, cozy spaces, and outdoor access for breaks and playtime. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions closely feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any specific habits or routines. I make sure pets feel secure and loved, whether they’re in familiar surroundings or visiting mine.

About: I’ve always grown up around dogs, cats, chickens, ducks, and etc. A dog is more than just an animal, they are a part of the family. Im a dental assistant and love helping people achieve the confidence to smile again. Im 22 years old and still live with my parents so this is a great side hustle to save money to move out eventually. At home we have a basset hound named Maggie that’s three years old, an Australian Shepard named Ranger that is also three years old, a Yorkie Shih Tzu named Trixie that is about 15 years old (yeah I know she’s basically deaf and blind but old girl is still kicking it), and then two cats that we rescued on the side of the road named Stormi & Klondike! I also have chickens & ducks! Let me dogsit your fur baby 🥰 I’m currently working at a private dental office located in Staunton, IL Monday-Thursday. Usually when I dog sit for a family friend or just anyone in general I stay at their house with the dog(s) so they feel comfortable in their own environment. My work hours are as followed; Monday & Thursday: 7-4pm (lunch 12-1pm) Tuesday 8-6pm (lunch 1-2 or 2-3pm) and Wednesday 7-1pm. I am a reliable and a caring person to watch your fur babies! I usually stay at the clients house so the pet is in a familiar environment and won’t get over stimulated. Every dog is different and so I usually meet the clients and/or the dog(s) so they are somewhat familiar with me and aren’t frightened by a stranger while their loved ones are away.

Animals are the best thing in this world! Without them life would not be as fun. I have open availability for the most part. I own my own business and thought this would be a fun side job! I’m very responsible and dependable. I am able to watch pets for short or long amounts of time! Pet care is an essential part of my daily routine. Each morning, I feed my pets and take them for a walk. Throughout the week, I schedule playtime and grooming sessions, ensuring they stay healthy and happy.

If there is something specific you need, I can accommodate!
