“Peggy is exactly the person you want taking care of your pets. She is patient, relaxed, and full of love! She has a dog of her own, Peanut, and offers to do an introduction before your booking to make sure all animals are comfortable. My days are somewhat unpredictable and Peggy was always accommodating and patient with my schedule. Maple would rush to her door each day in anticipation. We feel so lucky that Maple has been under such great care for the past 2 weeks!!”

About: Fur babies are my life … No literally! 🤗 I’m a Veterinarian Assistant so caring for your pet is literally what I do, what I love.🥰 I do pick ups and drop offs !! I work in VETMED at a local Veterinary clinic part time . So that gives me tons of extra time during the week. I also do drop in during my work day as well. !! I have a fenced in yard and a very nice fur baby to keep your fur baby company. I do also have created if needed.

“Winnie loves going to Justin's. She can tell when I get her bag ready that she is going to have a great day. She comes home happy and tired. Justin is super easy to communicate with has flexible availability. Thanks Justin you've been a life saver!”

About: Hi! I’ve been caring for dogs for over 10 years through fostering, volunteering at animal rescues, and loving on pups of all kinds. I work from home and have a flexible schedule, so I’m available for check-ins, walks, or just some company for your pet when you need it. I’d love to help keep your furry friend happy and cared for while you’re away! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. Since I work from home, I have the flexibility to walk, feed, and check in on pets throughout the day. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routine as closely as possible to keep their pet comfortable and stress-free. I provide fresh food and water, walks, playtime, and plenty of affection. I also make sure to keep the space clean and always send updates so you know your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.

“Our doodle is always SO happy to go with Caitlyn! (She might love Caitlyn more than she loves us, tbh.) Caitlyn is just so calm and good with dogs - she can even clean those fluffy ears sometimes, which is so above and beyond for a “dog sitter”… she’s more like our pooch’s second family. Her house is organized to be dog friendly. I recommend her for doggie daycare AND boarding!”

About: Hi pet owners of Bloomington/Normal!! A little bit about my experience, I’ve had large and small dogs all my life. I have took care of cats as well! I have nearly three years of experience as a home-health aid/caregiver for our local elderly, where I also walked, picked up after, snuggled and played with many clients pets! I am comfortable administering oral medication to dogs/cats and comfortable with pets of any size. I’m full-time at home, so plenty of time to give extra care and attention to your furry loved one. Personal hobbies are baking, doing puzzles, learning new recipes, walking around different parks, painting, doodling, and binging movies/tv shows! Available every day of the week besides midday Sundays! I have reliable transportation (my personal vehicle) for travel to clients homes for sitting and walking, as well as taking dogs to parks to play. I can allow one/two dogs inside of my home. My dog only eats when she is hungry, so I ensure her food and water bowls are never empty. I will follow clients care plan/requests for how your pets are fed. I have one sweet, medium sized 6 year old female dog at home!

“First time leaving our dog for the day with a sitter. Not sure who was more anxious the dog or my wife and I! Karan was awesome. Put us at ease during drop off and keep us updated with lots of pictures and messages during the day. Super happy with our experience and highly recommend Karan and look forward to having them sit our dog again in the future.”

About: I grew up on a farm with many animals. As a child, I had pet sheep, rabbits, dogs, cats, and cows. As an adult, I have always had cats. My 20 year old long hair cat just passed away in January. It was heartbreaking. I miss him dearly. We loved our guy so much. In his last 5 yrs, I spent many hours catering to his elderly issues. Medications and night yowling were issues that I happily took care of as he lived out his twilight years. I have a soft spot for all animals as they go through all stages of life :) I work from home and set my own hours, so my schedule is extremely flexible. I am open to many kinds of arrangements- one time sitting, a weekly routine, daily walks, weekends, etc. I am extremely fortunate to have a flexible schedule. My teen daughter and I live in a large 4 bedroom home, so we have tons of space to accommodate furry friends who need company. We do not have a fenced in yard, but our neighborhood is great for long walks. Our neighborhood has trails through the woods and a home owner’s association that maintains the trails. We have lots of fun walking the trails. I am an avid jogger/walker. I go out everyday, regardless of the weather. I have a very active lifestyle! We recently adopted a cat, but he stays in his own area on a different level of the house. He has claimed my daughter as his and lives in her room. When dogs come to stay with us, he typically stays in his room & pups never see him, although he has made friends with some of our regularly visiting pups 😊 I have a very flexible work schedule. When I do have to be away from home for work, I am gone about 2-3 hrs at a time. My daughter is at home often and also helps with pups. She is great with animals! We both like to take frequent walks throughout the day! In my home, I have a large open floor plan with tons of windows. During the day, I like to have pups next to me in my office, but some like to lay in prime viewing area of all the windows.

I am a hair stylist I got my dog grooming classification also l. Want a quick bath or blow out need a trim absolutely!!! I can do anything you need from a simple blow out to a full cut and groom. I love walking and playing with animals or just cuddling and being that companion they need when parents are away! I have felt with animals with sensitive skin and diets I can also handle medication and dogs who just don’t like meeting new people. I know how important it is to trust a new person with your fur baby and I want to help ease the anxiety while you trust me with you pets. I was recently working for a groomer and she came Ill so I decided to offer my services a little closer to home. I am inspired but the difference needs and desires of a pet and I love a challenge of gaining there patients and trust I have a smaller fenced in area in my yard for animals who just like to be outside I also have several different types of leashes if dogs want to walk and just get the energy out. I have cages if dogs need to be confined when eating or napping or just in general I also have puppy pads and cleaner for any animals who has accidents or just needs the extra support

About: I treat every pet like they’re my own. I provide calm, attentive, and reliable care tailored to each pet’s unique needs. I’m experienced with puppies, including basic training reinforcement and routine building, as well as senior pets who need extra patience, medication reminders, and gentle care. I prioritize safety, consistency, and clear communication, so you always feel confident and connected while you’re away. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine since I’m at home most of the day. This allows me to provide consistent attention, regular potty breaks, timely feedings, playtime, and plenty of companionship throughout the day. I’m able to closely monitor pets, adjust to their schedules, and give extra care to puppies or senior pets who need more frequent check-ins. I provide personalized care based on each pet’s routine, personality, and needs. In my home or in a client’s home, I follow feeding schedules, potty routines, and any specific instructions closely. Pets receive regular exercise, playtime, affection, and supervision throughout the day. I maintain a clean, safe environment and monitor for any changes in behavior or health. For in-home visits, I respect your space and keep everything just as you left it. I also provide updates and photos so you feel connected and confident in your pet’s care.

“Aryn and her space is wonderful! Kai plays with her children and other dogs all day and then comes home fully exhausted and content. SO grateful for her ease and flexibility too. Thanks Aryn!”

“Penny had THE best time. She made friends with a kitten. ❤️ Amanda is sweet, welcoming and clearly loves animals. Throughout the day I received pictures which brought me enormous relief from my anxiety which was unwarranted. We will certainly be back for not just a vacation already booked with Amanda, but daycare says as well. Thanks Amanda for loving our Penny like we do and welcoming her into your home!”
