House Sitting Collinsville

“Great sitter, pictures show how happy Jake was with her!”

Kelly A.

“Kelly was very easy to work with and we trusted her to stay at our house for over a week to take care of our two dogs. She followed the instructions we provided and took especially good care of our 25 year old dog who is on seizure medication. We will definitely use her services again the next time we have the need for a dog sitter. Thank you Kelly!”

“Mason is conscientious, attentive to my dog’s needs and was good at sending photos upon request. He also watered my outside plants while I was gone. I will definitely use him again.”

About: I can walk your pets, feed them, make sure they have water, brush them, play with them, clean out litter boxes & dog messes with provided cleaning supplies. I have trained my own dog at PetSmart Beginner/Intermermediate/Advanced so I do know commands should you instruct me to use them. I do like instructions with some detail so I can best take care of your pet in the same or similar ways that you do since pets are conditioned to respond the way their owners train and treat them at home. Feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns you have for the care of your fur babies. I’m a wife and a mom of a 4 year old so times flies by most mornings and evenings. I’m currently working 1 part-time 2 days a week job and maybe a 3rd day only when needed and very rarely. I would like to add another part-time job, being a pet sitter for 4 hours a day, 2 days a week every Tuesdays & Thursdays. It can be every week to one of those days a week. I’m very flexible. I have a 4 year old to pick up from daycare so I would need to be done with my day by about 3pm. I feed them, make sure they have water, I’ll brush them, walk them, play with them. I do this with my own dog at home when I’m not working. I know all foods that pets should avoid and can follow any specific instructions as long as it’s not too complicated when it comes to medications. I can do all of this for cats too! Please provide instructions, emergency info of where to take your pet should something happen, a carrier if it’s a cat or 2 cats to take them safely in my car. I have an SUV and can lay down blankets in the back for your bigger dogs/cats. Whatever makes your pet comfy on car rides for emergency visits.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was little. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me for years to walk, feed, bathe, and look after their pets—everything from high-energy puppies that need training and socialization to calm senior dogs that require gentle handling, medication reminders, and extra patience. I’m reliable, patient, and treat every animal like my own. Monday: Free Tuesday: Free Wednesday: Free Thursday: Free Friday: Free I currently have full availability, times may vary due to family reasons and personal life.

About: Hi! I’m Sarah! I’m a dog mom myself and genuinely love getting to spend time with other people’s pups. I started dog sitting for family and friends and loved it enough that I decided to branch out and meet some new furry friends! I work from home, so my schedule is pretty flexible and I’m able to spend lots of time with the dogs I’m caring for. I know every dog has their own personality, quirks, and routine, and I’m happy to follow whatever makes your pup happiest and most comfortable while you’re away. As a dog owner, I also know how hard it can be to leave your dog with someone else. I want you to be able to enjoy your time away without worrying about how your pup is doing. Expect lots of love, attention, playtime, and plenty of picture updates! Basically, I’m very happy being the person who talks to your dog like they’re a human and sends you way too many pictures of them. 🐾 I work from home, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your pup throughout the day! I’m available for regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, meals, and plenty of attention. I’m also happy to follow your dog’s normal feeding, walking, and bedtime routine so their stay feels as familiar and comfortable as possible. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. While I don’t have a fenced-in yard, dogs are always leashed and supervised outside, and I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks and multiple walks throughout the day. I have a dog of my own, so I understand how important it is to know your pup is in good hands. I’ll follow any instructions you provide and do my best to keep their routine consistent while you’re away.

“Great dogsitter!”

About: I’ve been a dog sitter and worked with dogs for 4 years now. I have experience with large and small dogs. Along with this I have a golden retriever dog who is 6 years old who I have trained since he was 10 weeks old. He is a very social dog and loves all animals and people! I currently work part time! So I am able to be at home more often. With the free time on my hands I would love to care for your animals while you are away! While I don’t have a fenced yard I have a lead! I have a pretty open yard so lots of space to run around. Along with this I take my dog on walks every day to get all the energy out!!

“Ramona was a wonderful sitter for our two pups. She is extremely responsive and communicates frequently. We felt very comfortable having her in our home while we were away and our dogs fell in love with her. She sent lots of photos and videos of our pups and actively played with them in the house and our backyard. Ramona truly made sure they were cared for when we had a family emergency and had to leave the state quickly. I absolutely recommend her if you need someone trust worthy and honest!”

Kate A.

“Diane is the BEST! She loved on our fur babies in our home for a week while we were on our anniversary cruise. We had never been away on vacation together, so I was a,little nervous doing so. She stayed in our home, provided daily pup updates, lots of pictures, and eased this hooman mommas heart. She truly cares, loves and enjoys caring for your 4 legged fur kids. Hands down would highly recommend her for ALL your pet sitting needs. And my fur kids Zeus and Penelope loved her too! Which speaks volumes to me!”

Carmen H.

“Lark stayed for a week at our home and was so caring of our furry baby Kevin. Kevin's not always predictable and they made good friends with loving belly rubs, etc. She shared pictured throughout the week. We will definitely be calling her back to see if she can stay again when we plan our next trip! Thank you so very much!”

About: I have been active for the past fourteen years with not only dog training, but pet and house sitting as well. I have had experience with all sizes, breeds and ages. It is my priority to keep your pet safe and have a positive experience whether it is during daily walks or weekend stays. I have traveled the country and internationally several times for competitions in agility. It adds a level of precision, caution and care to make sure everything is in place and the pet arrives safely. I hope I can make a positive impact in your pets life! I am a recent graduate of Saint Louis University and just started my career in radiology at Saint Louis Children’s Hospital. I am currently shifting between overnights and day shifts, but would love to meet your pet in between! In a clients home it is important to establish a trust as it is their private space. Being able to take care of their pet it is important to treat a clients space with respect and care as well. I hope that there is never concern when I pick up or drop off for care.

“My James immediately started adoring Brooke and had a ball with her pack. Great communicator. Conscientious. Flexible. Collaborative, I could go on…Don’t hesitate to reach out to Brooke!”

About: Growing up, I developed a profound appreciation for a variety of pets, many of which I have cherished and lovingly cared for over the years. For as long as I can remember, I've found true joy in the unwavering companionship of most animals, especially dogs. Most of my pet sitting experiences stem from my own 20+ year journey as a pet owner, but I’ve also gained invaluable insights into relationship-based, obedience, and positive reinforcement training methods for dogs of all sizes. Though I have a full-time job, my workplace is just a short ten-minute drive from my home, allowing me the flexibility to attend to your pets' needs at a moment’s notice. My heartfelt promise as a pet sitter is to create a safe, happy, and nurturing environment that feels like an extended home, ensuring your pet's needs are met with love and care. My current work schedule typically spans Monday through Friday during regular business hours. While I can’t offer consistent 24/7 care, I do have the flexibility to take short breaks and enjoy lunch at my own pace, which means that any dog I pet sit will always receive attention and care, never going without it for more than 2-3 hours at a time. I care for all pets in a loving, home-based environment where they are treated like part of the family. I have a fully fenced-in backyard that gives them plenty of safe space to play, explore, and relax outside. My home is in a quiet, safe community that's perfect for daily walks and outdoor time. Inside, pets have free roam of the house and are always supervised. I follow each pet's routine as closely as possible to help them feel right at home - and of course, there's no shortage of belly rubs, snuggles, and attention!

“Our cat Luna was a pandemic kitty and thus, has some separation anxiety, but Yasmina was super patient with him and got him to come out of his shell! It was our first time having someone house-sit but Yasmina sent pictures and video updates of Luna that eased our worries, and she left our place as clean as she found it! She was also super flexible and we really appreciated that!”

About: I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. My family and neighbors have relied on me to walk, and feed their pets. I can't wait to play with your pups! Hi everyone! I’m a recent graduate from Murray State University, and I am now available for dog sitting in the STL area. I have 6 years of dog care experience and am comfortable dogsitting of all ages. I'm available on the weekends. And certain times during the week. If you or someone you know is looking for a responsible, caring, and experienced dog sitter—whether it’s part-time, occasional, or regular—I’d love to help out! I have a fenced yard and a golden doodle that is very friendly. If you have any questions about accommodations for your doggy I am more than welcome to help!

About: I have experience caring for high-energy dogs, including golden retrievers, managing multiple pets, and handling routines calmly. My experience with young children has strengthened my patience, attentiveness, and reliability as a sitter. Caring for pets is part of my daily routine. I schedule regular walks, playtime, feeding, and attention, ensuring dogs stay active, happy, and well-cared for while I work remotely. I provide attentive care in my client’s home, including regular walks, playtime, feeding, and monitoring. I maintain routines, offer companionship, and ensure pets feel safe, happy, and well-cared for.

About: I've spent over 40 years caring for animals, from small dogs like Mini Dachshunds and cats to large breeds, including German Shepherds, Rottweilers, Dobermans, Chows, Pitbulls. I currently share my home with a long-haired German Shepherd and a beautiful long-haired domestic cat who are my babies. My daughter is also there while in college & has 2 cats so animals have always been an important part of my life, and to me, they're family, not just pets. In addition to caring for my own animals, I've provided pet sitting for friends and family, including multiple-dog and cat households. One of my most meaningful experiences has been caring for my German Shepherd following a serious attack that left him with very significant injuries. Helping him through his recovery gave me firsthand experience with the patience, attentiveness, and compassion required when an animal needs extra support. I'm comfortable administering oral medications according to instructions, maintaining feeding and exercise schedules, and adapting to each pet's individual personality and needs. Whether your pet is a tiny Dachshund, a large German Shepherd, or a beloved cat, I'll treat them with the same love, respect, and attention I give my own animals. My goal is to make sure you can travel with peace of mind, knowing your pets are safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for. I've always seemed to have a special connection with animals, even those who are normally hesitant around people. There's a little shop I frequent with a resident cat who apparently doesn't warm up to many visitors. One day, she surprised her owner by jumping right into my arms! Moments like that mean the world to me. I've always believed animals are some of the very best judges of character. I currently work an interesting schedule that allows me several consecutive days off. I have a rotating schedule. One week I work Sun-Tues 6am-6pm and the next I work Sun-Wed. The days I work are 12 hr days. But depending on how close you are to my job (Bridgeton area) I could potentially check in on them on my hour lunch and then go there after work at 6pm.. I live in Illinois but I dont plan alot of things this time of year so I have pretty good availability. Shoot me a msg, we can probably work it out. Even holidays. Talk to you soon! :) I believe pets are happiest and most comfortable in their own familiar environment, especially when their family is away. My goal is to maintain their normal routines as closely as possible while providing a safe, loving, and stress-free experience. Before accepting a booking, I like to learn about each pet's personality, daily schedule, feeding instructions, medical needs, and any special behaviors or concerns. I also believe meeting beforehand is important so both the pets and their owners can feel comfortable with me. Safety is always my priority. I'm attentive to securely closing doors and gates, using appropriate leashes during walks, and being mindful of potential hazards. Having cared for my own German Shepherd through a serious recovery, I understand how quickly unexpected situations can arise and how important it is to pay attention to changes in an animal's behavior or well-being. I respect my clients' homes and privacy and will treat their property with the same care I give my own. I also believe communication is essential, so I'm happy to provide regular updates and photos to give owners peace of mind while they're away. Most importantly, I understand that I'm being trusted with two things that mean a great deal to someone: their beloved pets and their home. I take that responsibility seriously.
