House Sitting in Carbondale

“Claire did a great job of bonding with our beagle. Bailey can get a bit of separation anxiety when we leave her, but Claire stuck with it and the two ended up getting along well. Also, she left the house probably cleaner than we left it. We would absolutely hire her again.”

About: I’ve been a lifelong animal lover and have been caring for pets since childhood. I grew up with both cats and dogs, including a Maltese, and currently share my home with an Australian Shepherd–Brittany Spaniel mix and my cat Josie. I have rescued two former outdoor/stray cats who I named Mabel and Astrid. One lives with my Grandpa while the other was given to my cousin! My favorite side-quests are animal rescuing! 😄 Alongside this, I’ve raised puppies and kittens of all ages, cared for senior pets, given medication, and even rescued a squirrel once (my ultimate side quest!). As said, I’ve occasionally helped strays by feeding and socializing them over the years, which has taught me patience, gentleness, and how to read animal body language. Professionally, I work in the behavioral health field, with over five years in Applied Behavioral Analysis as a behavior tech and a year as a mental health therapist student. I naturally apply those skills when working with animals by reading into the “unsaid.” Whether that is helping an anxious dog feel safe, reinforcing positive behaviors, or calmly navigating new environments, I am ready! I understand that pets are family. I prioritize safety, consistency, and clear communication so you can feel fully at ease while your pet is in my care. Whether your pet needs playtime, structure, cuddles, or space, I’m attentive to their individual personality and needs, and I genuinely love making sure every furry friend feels happy and understood. I am available to provide pet care services anytime between May 12 and July 12, 2026. During this period, I can accommodate flexible schedules and multiple visits per week, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I prioritize consistency and routine for pets, ensuring they receive regular feeding, exercise, and attention. After July 13, 2026, I will be working full-time and will only be able to accept a limited number of clients for very minimal days, so I plan to carefully manage my schedule to maintain high-quality care and attention for each pet. I prioritize safety, trust, and a positive environment for every pet in my care. I ensure secure spaces, supervise playtime, and maintain a calm and structured routine. I tailor care to each pet’s individual personality and needs, whether that means cuddles, exercise, or quiet time. I am attentive to subtle behavioral cues and changes, thanks to my background in behavioral health, and I always communicate clearly with pet owners to ensure they feel confident and comfortable with my care.

“As always Emily was AMAZING! Our boys love her so much it makes our time away that much better! If I could give her more than 5 stars I would!!”

About: I’ve been a pet owner for 10+ years. My fur babies are my world. I believe all animals deserve to be loved. Choose the best. I’m going to school part time and I would love to enjoy my free time taking care of some fur babies. Ask me your questions. I have a fenced in backyard. I live right by a park and university. I have an upstairs and downstairs in my home. Many space.

“Leo was fantastic. He sent me pictures every day while I was traveling. It was obvious in the pictures how much my my pup warmed up to him.”

About: I have always since I was a kid DREAMED of getting all different kinds of animals. I currently own 3 different species of geckos/lizards and love all animals! I have done lots of research on my own of all different types of animals and do regularly! I am a college student online so I want to be working part time. I can always go to watch your animal and care for them and do my schoolwork on my computer if that would work for you. In most circumstances I can come care for the animals at the clients home. I can be trusted to stick to your schedule/instructions for your animals daily needs and will always respect the privacy of your home.

“Daisie is a fantastic animal sitter! She always sends us pictures of our dogs and cats while we're away and she is extremely responsive. 10/10 would recommend! :)”

About: I have been dealing with dogs and other animals my whole life and I feel very confident in my ability to take care of them without struggle. I am a part-time college student, which leaves a lot of spare time to take care of whatever the animal may need and still maintain a healthy work-life balance. I will make sure to follow the instructions left to me by the owner and provide updates if needed. Also, I’ll make sure that when you return to your pet that they will be a happy and taken care of animal.

About: Growing up with a personal nurse parent, I’ve always been the one to help with pets around the house! Walking, grooming, and sitting with all kinds of animals! I love to work out so whenever I go on a run, so can your pet! Loving and patient towards all animals, and excited to work with you. I am more than happy to pick up poop on walks if I must, and can match your dogs pace in whatever that may be!

“Kat was great! My girls loved her and she provided me with updates throughout the days. Kat was also super considerate and maintained communication with me while I was away on my trip. Thanks Katbfor taking such kind care of my girls!!! I will definitely be using Kat again for house/dog sitting and walking.”

About: I have been a tech for 14 years so your pets will be beyond safe with me. I love animals and make a lot of play time and attention. Making them feel loved and cared for while you’re gone. I am currently working part-time, allowing me ample opportunity to play with your pet and give it the attention it deserves. I am available for in-home pet sitting any day and time, ensuring your pet feels as comfortable as if you were home. For walks, I am available in the early mornings or late evenings to avoid the extreme heat and ensure your pet's safety and comfort. I care for pets in a client's home as if they were my own. I ensure they are taken outside multiple times a day, and I always provide fresh water and food. If medications are necessary, I administer them properly and on schedule. I make sure that pets receive ample attention, playtime, and snuggles, ensuring they remain happy and content while you are away.
