About: I've had in home pets for 25 years continuously. I am new to inside cats, but I'm learning quickly about what they entail. I have 2 dogs and 2 cats and they all seem to end up cuddling with me, even at the same time. I have a weird schedule, a few hours in the morning and another few in the afternoon, so multiple check-ins a day a few hours apart are no problem. I have a secure outside pen for potty breaks. All of my fur babies are friendly, so new introductions would be welcome and safe in our home.
About: I've been pet sitting and a furbaby foster parent and furbaby rescue parent ever since I can remember. My daughter (14) and I would love to walk your furbabies! I'm a stay at home mom and can walk your furbaby whenever needed. My daughter who is 14 would be going with me as well. She's an animal whisperer for sure and is looking forward to walking your furbabies as well I have 3 indoor cats. Two of them were rescue kittens and one of them is a kitten from one we rescued. They are extremely well taken care of. We've had every type of animal snakes, rabbits, hamsters, turtles, chickens, and so on.
About: We have taken care of all kinds of animals for as long as we can remember. We recently raised a litter of 9 Australian Sheppards in my home. We also have a lot of experience with cats! We are reliable and caring people. True animal lovers. Everyone that knows us knows that we spoil our dogs and treat them like family (probably even better). I am a Registered Nurse and my boyfriend, Skyler, (who grew up on a farm) will also help care for your fur baby. We do not have a fenced yard but we have tie outs. We live in the country on 1.5 acres, however we do next to a busy road. It would be best if your dog listens and is not known to run off. We would love to take your dog on a walk and explore the woods behind my house! We have 3 friendly dogs (they love cats too) that will be your animal’s new best friend! We will treat your dogs like they are apart of our family. No crates or cages unless told to. We have several comfy couches and beds for your dogs to take naps on. They will love their stay with us!
About: I love walking and training dogs! I have one dog of my own! I have a flexible schedule to fit your all your pets needs I have Sundays and Mondays off. I also have a flexible schedule during the week! I am Available to stay in your home if needed! I am very good at following instructions on how to take care of your pet! I can give medicine if needed. I also can send daily updates!
“Glen walked our dog, Gene, for about 2 weeks while I was traveling. He was super responsive and always uploaded pics each day which I always appreciated seeing. I know Gene was very happy to have someone coming by during the day and I was too. I absolutely recommend Glen and will hope to be able to use him in the future when I am out of town!”
About: I have experience administering all kinds of medication to all ages of dogs. I love meeting your older dogs and have experience helping them navigate stairs and the home if necessary. I am patient and if your dog needs extra accommodation I am happy to provide assistance. I am currently a college student on break for the summer so my schedule is incredibly flexible. I am available for early mornings, late nights, and everything in between. I understand it can be nerve racking trusting someone with your pet, but I am extremely communicative and will keep you updated as frequently as you wish. I have pet sat for multiple families who have always returned to tidy homes and happy pets. As someone who has had the privilege of loving many animals, big and small (snakes, lizards, geckos, cat, hamsters), I understand the importance of your pet.
About: *NOW OFFERING DISCOUNTED RATES!* *I am currently on hiatus from house sitting! I will offer that service again soon!* After a brief break due to adjusting to a new, full-time job, I’m back to doing what I love: caring for your furry family members! With 50+ 5-star reviews and years of experience, I’m here to offer dependable, loving care again. I've had pets of my own my entire life and have cared for pets of friends, family, and neighbors for years! I love being around animals and have 3 babies of my own. I'll love your best friend as much as I love my own! I am reliable, punctual, and energetic and always willing to do what I can to help out! I have an anxious, aggressive, and arthritic Chihuahua of my own, so I have experience with more "neurotic" pets as well as experience with medication. One of my cats is 13 years old, so I also have experience with senior care (as well as cat medication, too!). I also recently adopted a guinea pig and am getting a second one very soon, so have experience with “exotic” animals as well! I just moved to the Galesburg area and am currently unemployed, so have wide availability to care for your pets! If I am house sitting, I can typically spend overnight and the majority of the day there! *Note: I am currently on hiatus from house sitting services! I currently do not offer house sitting/boarding in my own home, as my 3 pets aren't comfortable with new animals in their environment. Eventually, I hope to be able to set up a system where I can provide that service! I do have a playpen and door fences that I use for my own dog, so could potentially provide temporary boarding if the circumstance is right! When I come into a home for sitting, I am always acknowledging that I am not only in another person's space but the pet's space as well. I do everything I can to be respectful and aware of boundaries. Following routines to keep the pet comfortable is essential in building the bond!
