Dog Walkers in Cisco, IL

About: I know what it takes for a dog to have a wonderful time! Too many dogs spend their days stuck in a kennel, and it breaks my heart. I also believe that it helps a dog to stay in familiar surroundings. I offer in-home pet-sitting, not just for your convenience, but for the best interests of your dog. I’ve raised dogs all my life. Over time, my interests turned to breeding and showing. I presently have my own dogs, as well as a cat and some birds. These experiences have made me deeply aware of what a dog needs to be happy and healthy. Meet-and-greets are essential for obtaining all necessary information in advance of the sit and making sure everyone gets along well. You’re entrusting me with both your dog and your home, and I treat that responsibility with the utmost seriousness. I’ll be punctual, and will ask about everything I need to know during the sit. During the stay, I will maintain a daily diary of what your dog and I are up to, so that when you return, you’re assured we had a fantastic time. I have been showing and breeding for over 30 yrs. we had a thriving pet sitting/transport company for many years before retiring to Az. My husband and I work as a team to ensure your pet gets the attention they deserve! Don't trust your pets to just anyone. Trust in our experience!! We are able to administer meds either orally or via injection. We are safety conscious and care for your beloved pets! We provide drop in service and house sitting. We provide additional services like watering plants and bringing in mail at no additional charge. We pet sit for bogs, cats, birds and horse. Little friends also like gerbils or snakes !! Trust your pet care to an experienced pet sitter ! Feel free to contact us with any questions or for more information.

About: I have worked with just about every type of animal. I worked as a veterinary assistant for five years and fostered for 10+ years. I have always loved animals and always go above and beyond for my furbabies. I often foster animals in need, as well as adopt animals in need. I honestly just have so much love and compassion to give out to all animals. I cant wait to meet your fur babies and get to know them better! Let me know if you have any questions! I am free most days with the ability to tend to your furbaby's needs whenever works best for you, as I am currently self employed and create my own schedule. I have a fenced in yard with lots of toys and room to run. I spend 2-3 hours outside (depending on the weather) with the pups playing fetch or other games.

“Jenna was amazing with our dog who is a sweetie but high energy. She sent detailed updates regarding her visits and was always very kind and professional. We highly recommend Jenna!”

“Terri has been great with my 2 1/2 year old golden retriever. She provides loving and honest care for my pup every day that she is scheduled. I highly recommend her if you need someone to treat your dog like their own.”

About: Pets make everything better. They are funny, know when you're sad or sick, and most of all, they are family. I have an amazing little peanut who I adopted from the Champaign County Humane Society when he was three months old and he is my everything! I'm a caring and loving person, and I will give your pets the affection and attention they deserve. I love going for walks even if it's raining or snowing!! I have a lot of experience watching dogs and just like people, pets unfortunately get sick too, and I know how to take care of them when they are. I also know what its like to have to leave your pets at home when you travel, it could be sad or kind of scary at times. In my past, I've stayed overnight at different houses, so rest assured when you're away I will take great care of your pets! My availability is super flexible. Im available 7 days a week, anytime. Unfortunately life happens, and I can be there anytime you need me. I can't wait to meet your furry friend. I do a lot of drop in visits and I'm very trustworthy. I promise you a safe experience when you book me through Rover and your loved pets will get the same care and attention that I give to my own baby boy!

About: Your best friend will have all of my attention. I’m an aspiring zoologist and have always loved animals. Currently living with 4 animals, 3 dogs and 1 Guinea pig. I help take care of my dads dogs while I take care of my Guinea pigs. I have experienced many things with dogs and cats, such as helping them through seizures and birth. I have a lot of care for animals and take pride in my work, so thank you for giving my profile a look. I’m currently open to house sitting for extended periods of time as I have only free time. I had to move back to my parents which has opened up my schedule immensely. By making sure all needs of each animal are met. By making sure they have food, water, go outside, and get the attention they want/need.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats (and a couple smaller critters here and there) since childhood and understand that pets are family. I currently have four small rescue dogs at home and am active in dog sitting for local friends and rescues. I know how it feels to leave your loved ones in someone else’s care, and I will do everything I can to give you peace of mind and make your fur babies as comfortable and happy as possible. My schedule is flexible, and I’ll do my best to work with you around my full-time day job. I’m generally free in the evenings and on weekends, so keep me in mind if you need a night away but want company for your furry housemates. I am happy to stay with your pets overnight and can also make time for daytime check-ins/walks as needed. Be sure to check out my holiday availability as well! Your pet’s safety is my priority! I like to chat with you and meet your pet(s) before any scheduled bookings so we’re both on the same page about your instructions and expectations. I also value clear and frequent communication. (That includes pictures and updates of your loved ones while in my care!) I respect your home as my own and will leave it as clean, secure and maintained as I found it. If you have any house quirks or special instructions, just let me know. For boarding and daycare services (in my home), we ask that all dogs be spayed/neutered, up to date on vaccines, and taking monthly flea/tick/heartworm prevention. We typically do not host pets from multiple households at the same time, but please let me know if you have more than one dog for boarding/daycare and I’ll get you a quote. For the safety of our pets and yours, we are not able to host large dogs, cats or (human) children in our home, but I’m happy to come to yours!

“We needed help with our pup last minute and Misty was quick to respond and willing to work with our schedule. During the meet and greet I could tell she was very comfortable with animals as well as knowledgable. Overall Misty was amazing to work with and I felt at ease knowing our fur baby was in good hands.”

About: I have taken care of just about any animal you can think of. I was a veterinary assistant for 4 years. I am 25 years old and currently finishing my bachelor’s degree online at SIUE.

I have my own fur babies but I love to meet new pets and build connections with them as well as their owners! I am currently working part time as a nanny and looking to add more pet sitting clients to my workload! I am in college and trying to save money for my future and pet sitting is a very flexible way for me to do that, plus I enjoy it so much! I always love to spend quality time with the animals I am caring for, it helps them to become more comfortable and makes it more enjoyable for me as well! I like to learn the little things that each pet I take care of likes most and use that to bring them comfort and joy while I am caring for them!

About: I have been dog sitting since I was 11 years old. I have taken care of all kinds of dogs, all ages and sizes. I have always grown up with a dog, so taking care of one is like second nature to me. I have looked after puppies as well as senior dogs. I have potty trained puppies in less than 2 weeks. I have been responsible for walking, feeding, entertaining/playing, and bathing services. I am a University of Illinois Student who is currently working part-time over the summer, therefore I have a flexible schedule!

I walk my dog Arlo in the morning before work, and will do the same with pets that are under my care. I live on a lake and I do not have a fenced in yard, but I will walk them often. I will walk your pets around the neighborhood which you live if I am caring for them at your house. My 4 year old Husky/German Shepherd mix loves other dogs and is very friendly. My dog does not require a crate, however if that is something that your dog needs, I can accommodate! If I am watching your pets at my house, I will require proof of vaccinations to keep my dog safe as well!

Koda, my youngest dog was completely trained by me in German commands. Working with dogs to learn new things is one of my favorite things to do. My oldest dog, Motley is a senior and the past couple years I have become very educated and trained on administration of medication and post surgery care.

And I’m off Friday through Sunday so anytime those days as well! When visiting your home I am happy to provide any services you may need for your pet.
