Dog Sitting in Edwardsville

“Ruslan is a gem! He’s caring, communicative and sensitive to all your pets needs. He recently cares for my blind elderly dog and high strung other dog! He’s on time, loves them up and offers time for cuddles. I will indeed rehire!”

About: I have been around pets most of my life! I am definitely a dog person and have yet to meet a dog I couldn't be friends with, even if it takes some work. I have cared for senior dogs, puppies, for babies big and small. I am always glad to answer any questions! I am currently working full time in a clinic with a normal schedule of about 8-5 M-F. I am most comfortable with combination dog- and house-sitting so your doggo gets the most of my attention! I also pride myself on being flexible and would do my best to work together for what is best for your pet! I tend to be pretty adaptable, and prefer to take a dogs lead as well as owner’s instruction to tell what is needed and when. It's been a while, but I volunteered a at shelter a lot before going away for college and some of those tips and tricks stick with you!

“I really appreciate Hannah! I needed to hire someone last minute for my 5 furbabies, and she was more than willing. I asked if she wouldn't mind if I reached out for additional days toward the end of my trip away, and though I ended up not needing to do so, she was willing to do that as well. Additionally, my senior rottweiler mix likes to "give attitude," which can be scary if you aren't familiar with it, and Hannah handled that beautifully. She was communicative when it happened, which allowed me to message her to share what to do about it (which was to let the dog throw her fit and leave her be). I'd hire her again in a heartbeat, and probably will when I take trips in the future!”

About: I've always had a special connection with pets, from hatching chicks in 3rd grade, to watching my sister's 5 dogs, 30 chickens, and 4 goats, to just loving on my one cat at home. (Comfortable with all ages of dogs/cats including seniors) I currently work for my dad in Lenexa, so I have a semi-flexible schedule. I know how important quality time is to animals so I always adjust to their needs and make sure they're properly fed, watered, loved, and medicated (if needed) All pets are different. I like to follow owners instructions to a tee, and on top of that it doesn't take long for me to get to know an animals baselines behaviors so I can adjust to whatever that animal needs the most. Some just like to have someone there with them, some may want to be pet for 24 hours, some may like to play, some may just like to lounge, etc. My cat's name is Zuko, and she is somewhere in between all that!

“Thanks Alexander for caring my ?s. She was a great sitter. She cleaned up the litter from floor and brought in my packages. She was timely and clean. Would book again.”

About: I have watched over dogs for the past few years for friends and family as well as my own pup who is 5 years old! I am currently searching for work in the Merriam area and looking for extra income. I work from home a few days a week and I am available most weekends. I treat animals like my own. I like to make sure they get enough water and exercise just as I would do for my own dog.

“Great with our cats, even the one that is very shy!”

“Nicole is great with Buddy!”

Over the years I have successfully cared for a wide variety of animals, ranging from dogs and cats to rabbits, birds, and reptiles this experience has not only deep in my understanding of different species, but has also stretched my ability to cater to their specific needs and preferences.

Whether it’s a hyper dog that requires daily walks in playtime or a shy cat that refers quiet companionship. I am committed to creating a safe and nurturing environment that fosters trust and comfort. My dedication to understanding each pet unique needs extends beyond their daily routines. I actively engage with them, observing their behavior, and mood to ensure that they are happy and healthy. This personalized approach not only enhances their overall experience, but also helps alleviate any anxiety that they may feel in the absence of their owners.

About: Caring for animals has been a lifelong passion for me. I’ve been volunteering in animal shelters since I was a teenager, and more recently, I’ve fostered and volunteered with the amazing non-profit Kitty Cat Connection. Over the years, I’ve cared for countless cats and dogs in need—and every one of them has held a special place in my heart. I’ve always had pets of my own, too—right now, I share my home with four wonderful dogs and five cats, including Snoopy, my 16-year-old Beagle-Basset mix who keeps me on my toes and reminds me every day how special senior pets are. With that kind of experience, I understand the love, patience, and responsibility it takes to care for animals of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. When your pets are with me, they’ll be treated like part of the family. Whether they need extra cuddles, a calm presence, or someone to match their energy, I’ll give them the same attention and care I give my own. You can count on me to keep them safe, happy, and loved while you're away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine—I work remotely and have a very flexible schedule, which means I’m home and available throughout the day to give your pets the attention they deserve. Whether it’s midday potty breaks, playtime, feeding, or just companionship, I can be there when they need me most. When caring for your pets in your home, I treat your space with the utmost respect. I will keep your home tidy and clean, making sure everything is just as you left it. I follow your pet care instructions carefully to ensure your furry family members receive the exact care and routine they need. You can trust that I’ll be a responsible and considerate guest while providing loving, attentive care to your pets.
