Pet Sitting in Dolton

“From the moment we met her, we knew our cat was in the most loving and capable hands. She cared for our fur baby with so much tenderness and attention, going above and beyond to ensure Charlie felt safe, comfortable, and loved while we were away. Her daily updates brought us peace of mind and smiles each day. We are so grateful for her, and feel incredibly lucky to have found someone so wonderful to care for our Charlie.”

“Paris was an awesome care taker of my fur babies! She is very thorough in her communication with us about her time with our babies. We enjoyed and loved all the pictures she took of them while in her care. We highly recommend Paris to dog sit. She is trustworthy and my babies love her!”

About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember! I’ve been caring for them since childhood and have gained extensive experience working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I spent two years working at an animal shelter, where I handled everything from socializing shy rescues to assisting with basic training and care for high-energy pups. In addition to my shelter experience, I’ve cared for senior dogs, puppies, and dogs with special needs, including those with mobility issues and anxiety. I also offer boarding, walking, and drop-in visits, ensuring that every pup in my care gets the love, attention, and exercise they need. Whether it’s a cuddle session, a long walk, or playtime, I’m dedicated to making dogs feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. 🚨🚨🚨 PLEASE READ BEFORE BOOKING 🚨🚨🚨 To see your pup featured, follow me on Instagram: @mani_thedogsitter 🐶📸 Weekday Availability: I work full-time but have the flexibility to check on your pets during my lunch breaks.

Weekend Availability: I'm fully available on weekends and love to include dogs in my plans whenever possible! Whether it’s a relaxing day at home, a walk in the park, or an outing, I strive to make their stay fun and engaging. Potty Training Requirement: Dogs must be potty trained.

While my yard is not fully fenced, I always ensure supervised outdoor time to keep your pup safe. Your dog will also have a built-in playmate—my own friendly pup! Having a companion can help ease anxiety and make their stay more fun and engaging. Whether they love to play, lounge, or explore, I create a comfortable, stress-free environment where every dog feels at home.

I’m also skilled in providing gentle, attentive care for senior and special-needs pets, ensuring every animal feels safe, loved, and happy.

About: I grew up with dogs - my Afghan, Kesha, was my first best friend and how I learned to braid (lol). I've cared for Rottweilers, Pit Bulls, Cockers, and Min Pins. I've dog-sat and cat-sat for family and neighbors for years, and now my daughters and I are ready to open our peaceful home and fenced yard to pets needing love while their people are away. Our house has a crate, a basement space, and plenty of tail-wagging energy. Dogs aren't just welcome here, they're remembered forever. I'm currently home during the day with a very flexible schedule. I have plenty of time, space, and love to offer pets who need calm, consistent care while their owners are away. Pet care fits easily into my routine and brings so much joy into our home. I approach every client's home with the same respect. I would want someone to have in mine. I've worked in private homes as a section 8 inspector, a home care aide, and an insurance rep, so I'm comfortable operating professionally in someone else's space. I follow all house rules, keep things clean, and ensure pets feel safe and at ease while you're away. We live in a pet-friendly neighborhood. My daughters and I often take walks around the neighborhood, so any pet we care for will get the benefit of fresh air, familiar sights, and friendly energy. We have a peaceful, fenced yard, a crate if needed, and a quiet, unoccupied basement space for rest or separation when appropriate. I'm very aware of animal behavior, neighbor pets, and how to make pets feel safe and seen. This is a calm, kid-friendly, and pet-loving home.

“Jorinee was excellent with both of my cats. I am so glad I found her. I use to be concerned about who would look after my fur babies or even if I would be able to travel at all. My cats were very comfortable with her. They were relaxed, well fed and their litter box was clean. You can tell it was done on a consistent basis. I have another lengthy vacation for next year and will no doubt be requesting her. She is excellent and I would recommend her to anyone asking.”

About: With over 20 years of dedicated pet care experience, I provide compassionate and reliable services tailored to each pet’s unique needs. Whether it’s daily walks, administering medication, or offering overnight stays, I ensure your fur love bugs receive the utmost care and attention. My commitment to building trusting relationships with both pets and their owners has been the cornerstone of my long-standing career in pet sitting. As a dedicated pet sitter, I structure my daily and weekly schedule to ensure I am highly available and responsive to the needs of both pets and their owners. Caring for pets in their owners’ homes requires a combination of attentiveness, respect, and adherence to established routines to ensure the well-being of the animals and the security of the home.

About: We have always had pets growing up. Both cats and dogs. I've had a pit bull in my early teens and had also adopted a 10yr old senior dog. I have experience giving my senior medicine and being extra gentle when it is needed. I currently have a reactive German Shepherd so if you're looking for someone to watch your big dog that pulls a lot, I have tons of experience and am strong enough to hold him or her. Basically I have had experience with animals in different stages of their life. Im still learning as Odin has training classes and I use what I learn to help with other pets. I've watched pets for friends and family in the past and have done drop in visits for years now. I am able to travel further distances if you aren't able to find someone local just send a message. I do work full-time so I can come before or after work through out the week. I'm off two days out of the week and if you would like to schedule a weekly walk schedule or drop in visit I will work closely with you to make my schedule accommodating for your pet. Ex. If you would like a certain day or if the week for me to walk and visit your dog I can request those days off if far enough in advance. Currently I am not doing overnight visits or day care but it's important to keep pets on their original schedule. For drop-in visits and walks, I think it would be best to stick to their original route and if they don't yet have one, a walk with a nice game of fetch is usually good enough to tire them out a bit. I will always send pictures when your pet and I are on our adventures together.

About: Taking care of animals when explaining what I do is a understatement. I’ve had animals all my life, whether feeding, caring, etc… I’m the one to do it. I simply just have a genuine passion for pets. I’d have one of my own but I’m in school. From bathing, grooming, walking… I literally do it all. So let me get to know your pet. I currently work a Part-Time job so I definitely have freedom and time to care for your pet. My days are a little wonky, but I communicate so that won’t be a problem. In my home, a dog is not a animal. It might as well be a human. I treat ANY pet with extreme care, putting them first before my own self. In a client’s home, it’s the same way, obviously with owners guidelines in mind… I’d make sure the dog is in great hands and care.

About: I’ve helped raise 2 of my family’s dogs and now am raising a very well behaved puppy of my own. I am very responsible in all facets of my life and will properly tend to your dog’s needs. I am starting a remote job from Dyer, IN in July and would love to incorporate taking care of dogs into that flexible schedule of mine! Given my virtual workload, I am able to dedicate a large amount of time towards my Bentley and your dog. They will be given water/food, taken outside on walks, and anything else that’s needed :)

“Darcelle was great and my cats loved having her drop by to check on them. I appreciated that she played with them and cleaned up the food dishes. I recommend her and plan to call on her again when I can't be home.”

About: I have taken care of family, friends, and co-workers cats for a few years now. I’m very reliable and I enjoy spending time with the cats. Please Read Before Booking!

I won’t usually be free on Thursday and Tuesday. I have a fenced yard and two dogs who are not aggressive. I make sure to keep all dangerous items out of reach of the dogs and watch them at all times.
