House Sitting in Carterville

“Janet was awesome with our dog Murphy. Lots of pics of him along the way. Very happy she was able to watch him for us. She was so accommodating with specific asks (dog walks, taking to groomer, watering plants, etc). She definitely went above and beyond.”

About: I work with Chimpanzees at Chimp Haven! I also have two amazing cats named Bellion and Kid! In addition I also have a bearded dragon named Thor. I have had animals since I was 3 and I have been caring for animals since then. I have experience walk training dogs and I have plenty of regular training experience as well. I use to volunteer with multiple dog and cat no kill shelters where I would walk, play, and groom with both dogs and cats. I would also go to events and communicate with potential adopters for these dogs, as I did these events I would be walk training the dogs so that when they get adopted they would know! I do work a full time job from 7am-4pm every day. My evenings are completely free and I currently have Saturdays and Sundays off from work so I am free all day on those days to help train or walk pets! Since my evenings are free I can check up or even stay the night to take care of your babies! My cats and lizard are very spoiled in our home. They get fed twice a day and plenty of love and play time. I absolutely adore animals and I want to make sure your pets are taken care of while you're at work or vacation!

About: Hi We are Abby and Will. We moved to Louisiana less than a year ago. We do not have any pets yet, so your pet will have our undivided attention. We both grew up with animals and wouldn’t have it any other way. Being around animals makes us happy and you can have two pet sitters for the price of one! We both work full time jobs but have flexible schedules. I (Abby) get off work most days at 3pm and have open availability on the weekend. Will is free on the weekends as well and is periodically free during the day. We communicate well and will make sure your pet is taken care of! Our house is located in a peaceful neighborhood. We love to go for walks and our house has a fenced in backyard with a doggy door. We’re both up early and can make sure your fur baby is fed and walked if needed. Our philosophy is to treat people’s pets with love, respect, and kindness.

About: I am flexible and love animals. I have cared for dogs, cats and horses for over 60 years. I have worked with many dog breed and sizes, as well as ages. I work part time and have a flexible schedule. I currently own three of my own cats, but can easily accommodate the needs of others. I can accommodate the clients request at their home. I am willing to travel to clients home, provide necessary services including vet appointments. I am available for overnight stays as needed but only at clients residence as I have cats at my own home.

“Samuel was AMAZING with our pup! We had to fly across the country unexpectedly and he was able to watch Frankie at the last second and took great care of him all weekend. He was super flexible with our flight delays on the way home as well. Frankie got to go on lots of fun adventures too! We will definitely be using Samuel whenever we need a dog sitter in the future!”

About: I've had labs, mutts, cats, and even a tarantula in my years of owning pets! I can bathe if they get dirty, and have notoriously been called a cat whisperer by my friends. There's very little that could happen to gross me out or put me off from a pet. To me your pet is a loved family member and I treat them with the respect they deserve! I currently am only doing occasion drives for Uber and Lyft. The amount of time I have is open and can be easily worked around whatever schedules you need! I'm very good about messaging back in a timely manner and marking on calendars ahead of time when I would be unavailable. The only real requirement is if I stay overnight I have to run home at least once a day to feed and care for my own pets! First and foremost I do require meeting a pet before any sitting/checking and walking take place. As a stranger to your pets it’s best they see me when you are present first to make both them and myself more comfortable. I believe in being upfront with people in every way so I also must insist on being told if there are cameras or alarms on the property! No one likes to be jumpscared with those! Also if you have people who come by or have access to the property let me know, so I can let them in. (pest control, cleaning service, etc)I like having a list of what pets need and their preferences; as well as a good vet's number and location on file. I read instructions thoroughly and follow them to a T! I don't cave to begging if they aren't allowed! If provided I will follow training guidelines that you've set to the best of my ability. (for example you're working on no barking, I will also discourage barking!) I unfortunately must say as well any dog bigger than an average labrador(i.e. 70ish pounds) must be at least heel trained if I am to walk them safely; otherwise I will exercise them thoroughly outside instead. I am tiny, and large dogs don’t mesh well with that when untrained! So it's for the best! Please let me know ahead of time what level of communication you’d prefer when away, whether daily or only emergencies! I can take nice photos too, and will only put them on the profile with express permission. I also would prefer but am not required to have a list of their preferred schedule and feeding amounts. Pets are most comfortable when they can stick to a routine. Especially since a stranger in the house is already new! And last but not least if your pet has any quirks or history I’d like to be informed! For example an elderly dog that is kinda grumpy. Or hot spots, sensitive skin, lumps, allergies, bite history, etc.

About: I have 4 dogs of my own and one cat. I have cared for pets as long as I can remember. My dogs are all house trained and crate trained they also are well mannered and like other pets. I can house train and also train dogs to do certain tricks. I'm 27 years old and own my own home with a large fenced in back yard. There is only one other person living in my home and they are only home after 5 pm. My house has no carpet so accidental pet messes can be cleaned easily. I have my own transportation to house sit or dog walk any time I am needed. Thank you for considering me for taking care of your pets I currently work full time split shifts so I can take care of animals between shifts before shifts and after shifts. I have reliable transportation to and from also I have a large fenced in back yard and I currently work in the animal field so I am trained on medication management and also have vet tech experience.

About: I've been around dogs since childhood, but my two sweet dogs have come into my life in the last few years. Both rescues from different situations, they have taught me so much about how to adapt my care to their specific needs. Feeding times are no problem, as are bathroom breaks and time outside. I'm able to administer medicine as needed. The only limit that I have as far as pet care goes is that I cannot walk larger dogs due to a spinal disability. I can, however, manage dog walks on the small-medium size. I hope that I fit your pet sitter needs and can make friends with your doggo! I work part time in a leadership position in a retail store. My shift are typically in the middle of the day but generally do not last more than 6 hours. I am able to drop in and provide care as needed and stay at a client's house full time on my off days. I have a fenced in backyard that my dogs are free to run around and play in. They never go anywhere without their harnesses and leashes. My cats are indoors only, though sometimes I may take them on the patio if it's sunny out. This is generally the standard I apply to any animal I'm caring for, so that they're in my sight as much as possible.

About: I have had dogs since I was ten. They all lived long lives and were happy and spoiled. I am known as the dog whisperer in the family. I also have dealt with turtles and horses. I am working part time so mostly available on the weekends. I can house sit but prefer drop ins. If all day in house care is necessary please message me and we can work out details. I will be caring for your fur baby in their natural habitat. If there are any special instructions you would like me to follow, I would be more than happy to oblige

“Caitlyn did a WONDERFUL job watching our pups! While we were gone, we received several updates and photos, which made our time away worry-free knowing they were in good hands. We could not be happier with the service she provided and will absolutely use her in the future!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for half of my life. I love animals and my patience for them is my best quality. I cannot train. I’m currently in law school so I will have plenty of time between classes, after classes or on the weekends. My schedule can be flexible. I live in a two bedroom apartment by myself so the other room can be used to take care of your fur babies. It depends.

About: I have had many pets over the years I know as far back as I can remember. My parents always made sure me and my brother would learn the responsibilities of taking care of any kind of pet. I am currently working at Tyson’s Food from 3:40pm to 2am. My availability is from 6am until about 1pm Monday through Friday,most Saturdays I'm available all day, and on Sunday I’m available all day. I will take well care of your furry cute little pets in the best and up most responsible way possible. Please Note I Do Note I Do Not Sit With Pets In My Own Home. Thank You advance for this special opportunity to be apart of your pets life.
