“Excellent dog watcher!! It was my second time hiring Daniel and was such a comfort to travel while letting my senior dog stay at home. Daniel did great, kept me up to date with pictures and information about my dogs eating and drinking habits. Would definitely recommend if your like me and want your dog to stay in his comfort zone, hiring Daniel to look after your pet.”

About: I have had a dog all my life. Growing up we had Boxers. In my adult married life we have had Labrador Retrievers . These dogs have not been dogs but fur kids. I have taken them to obedience classes so I have experience in commands and working with them. I believe that fur kids need plenty of exercise on and off leashes. Dog parks are a good way to socialize them and get in exercise. In the home mind games are fun too. Sniffing out a treat to playing with toys on the floor with them. I love taking pictures and document what we do. You will know what your fur child is doing. I am currently working for home during the week day so being with them during the day works. I am able to take breaks and go on short walks. Play with them in our fenced in yard. I plan on retirement in May so I will be available 24/7, 365 days a year. I am willing to come into your home if you would feel more comfortable. If they come to my home we have a fenced in yard and will be able to play with our 2 fur boys. One is an 8 year old chocolate Labrador and the other is a 5 year old German Shepherd/Great Pyrenees. Both have had other dogs come into the home and stayed with us. They love having visitors. In your home I will attend to their needs as you have outlined.
About: I do have a cat of my own and a bunny and always dog sit my family dog Capone he’s about two and an half years old! And a pitbull mix, I do have references! I can start in August mostly around 3pm until whenever! I’m very flexible with time and dog sitting or cat sitting I can do Mondays-Fridays! I always take care of my cat and bunny in the mornings and always give them my time attention after work and make sure they have fresh water and entertainment and treats!
“My wheeler is protective and usually growls at people. She took an instant liking to Jason. He's definitely a dog person and I could tell he genuinely cared about their well being. The dogs did too. From the pictures he sent, they really enjoyed playing fetch with him. Jason is a great dog sitter.”
About: While I have the most experience taking care of cats, I do have experience with dogs, bearded dragons, and fish as well! I am also always open to learning about new animals and their care routines. I am consistent, detail oriented and passionate about caring for critters and that will always be the same no matter the animal! I am currently employed 7-3:30 5 days per week. I am able to attend to pets before and after work every day as well as on my days off. If something does not quite fit with my schedule I do have a partner who is a little more flexible and may be able to fill in. I live in a spacious townhouse, so if your pet is joining our crew we can provide them with their own space or allow them to roam with the others! If I am caring for your pet in your home, I will treat it as if its my own. I am a very cleanly person and I am detail oriented so I will attend to your surroundings as well as your pet!
About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was 12. My friends and family have counted on me to walk, feed, water and love on their animals I am home all day Monday-Thursday unless something comes up. I don’t usually have a set schedule throughout the day. It’s just whatever I decide to do I don’t have a house to care for pets at. At my clients house I will play with the dog in the backyard. Feed and water and just make sure they are loved
About: With over 5 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages and temperaments, I provide compassionate, attentive care that feels just like home. Whether it’s playtime, cuddle time, or a calm walk, I adapt my approach to meet each pet’s unique personality and health needs. What sets me apart is my patience, consistency, and ability to earn trust quickly, from both pets and their owners. I have a golden doodle of my own so caring for pets is what I do all day. He is very energetic but also loves his naps. I am a college student so during the summer i am with him 24/7 Whether caring for pets in my home or at a client’s home, my top priority is creating a safe, stress-free, and loving environment. I stick closely to the pet’s normal routine—feeding times, walks, play, and rest—so they feel comfortable and secure. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of the space and follow all instructions carefully, from feeding and medication to keeping favorite toys or beds in the right spot. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, affection, and exercise, and I’m always alert to signs of stress or discomfort. In my home, I provide a clean, pet-friendly space where animals can relax and feel at ease. I keep a regular routine and make sure all pets have plenty of room to play, nap, and feel at home. Since I have a friendly Goldendoodle, pets who stay with me will also have a built-in playmate—unless they prefer solo time, in which case I provide quiet areas just for them. I send regular updates with photos so you always know how your pet is doing while you’re away.
About: I am willing to stay the night if needed or just stop by to check on dogs. I will give walks or whatever else is needed as well! When I lived at home, before moving to St Charles for college, I took care of my pets every day. I would feed, walk, and love on my two dogs daily. I will treat your pet however you and the pet feel most comfortable. I am very gentle will dogs and will help the dog to feel as comfortable as possible
About: I started volunteering at the animal shelter when I was 10. I have 5 dogs and 8 cats that I have rescued from abusive/neglectful homes, the streets, and from the shelter. I took a vet tech class in high school and a big/small animal class. I’m very good with all kinds and types of animals. I work part time currently, 4 to 5 hours a day Monday-Thursday and I’m off Friday-Sunday. I will definitely be able to care for and engage with your pet when needed. When I go to a new house to dog sit I always lock the doors and make sure to follow all rules I have been given. I stay very aware of my surroundings and the animal.
“Emily was so sweet to both me and my senior kitty. She had no trouble giving my cat her anxiety medicine. I feel confident that my cat was well cared for while I was out of town. I’ll definitely be using Emily again!”
About: I have been around animals my whole life, and I have done dog and cat sitting a few times over the years for neighbors or friends. I’ve had cats and dogs in my home since 2014, and I am very comfortable around both. I currently have a full time job; I work primarily in the mornings with evening shifts thrown in here and there. I don’t do much outside of that, so I am pretty available otherwise. I want to keep all pets feeling comfortable, following their routines/schedule, and keeping them company (within their boundaries). I no longer live with my cats and miss them greatly, so I will make sure they receive extra attention, pets, and playtime (within their boundaries).
About: Through out my life I've had several different furry friends (and fish!). I have worked with all kinds of animals from ones that love to run and play to ones that would prefer to lounge around all day! My fur baby, Dodge, is a mix of the two so im sure to cater to each side of him by providing different types of enrichment and trainings for each mood. I am currently a stay at home wife looking to make some pocket money while doing something I love! I'll have plenty of time to look after your lovely animal children! Most of the times, short term stays or quick check-ins work best for me, but I am open to talks regarding longer stays. I am a strong believer in spending as much time with pets as possible, so I plan to enact that with your fur babies as well. I will send you pictures of your fur baby on walks or lounging on the couch with small updates.

September N.
“September cared for our 2-year old golden retriever in our house for 26 days. She quickly connected with our very energetic dog and formed a great relationship- it was evident that he loved her as much as she loved him at the end of their time together. September is enthusiastic and adventurous, and likes to explore new places and meet new people which our dog loves too - they went for walks around the neighborhood and on local trails, and even ventured into a few dog friendly stores. It was evident that September’s experience owning and training her own dogs helped her work with our dog. She knew when he needed to play games - mind games, sniffing games and just some time playing on the floor, as well as when it was time to relax and snuggle up in the big chair together. And, she took lots of great pictures and shared them with us, which made us feel good while we were away.”

Katherine F.
“I highly recommend Kate as a responsible, loving, and trustworthy dog walker and pet sitter. I’ve had the pleasure of knowing her for 4 years, and I can confidently say that animals naturally gravitate toward her calm and caring energy. Kate is incredibly attentive to the unique needs of every pet and always ensures they feel safe, exercised, and loved. Whether it’s going the extra mile on a walk, giving medication, or just spending time cuddling and playing, she treats every animal as if it were their own. If you’re looking for someone reliable, compassionate, and genuinely passionate about animals, Kate is the perfect choice. Your pets will be in excellent hands.”

Gabrielle W.
“Gabrielle has been the best dog sitter I have ever used. My dog loves her because she goes above and beyond the bare expectations, spending extra time with him, taking him on more than just the basic walk but to the dog park (with my permission), and just genuinely caring about his wellbeing. I have recommended her to several friends who also have used her very regularly and are happy. She is trustworthy, hardworking, and reliable. She's the best.”
Kaeli M.
“Kaeli was absolutely amazing! Our puppy took a while to warm up to a new face but Kaeli was very patient with Yuki. Thank you so much!”
Rayonna H.
“Ray has been an animal lover her entire life. Ray's brother said it perfectly "If anyone is looking for their kids or their animals and Ray is around, you can guarantee they are following her" She volunteered at the local animal shelter for years. She sat in on surgeries with our local veterinarian as well as with her Aunt who is a veterinarian. She has 5 rescue dogs at her parents and multiple rescue cats, most of which Ray brought in due to needing some sort of medical procedure done. She used to request money for her birthday and donate it to the local animal shelter. She has families in her home town that schedule their vacations around when she is back home so they can have her come to their house and care for their animals. I would trust her over anyone else when it comes to animals and children! Hard to find this kind of genuine kindness towards both but with her it seems to come so natural.”
