House Sitting in Elgin

“Shelby was great! She did a meet and greet the day before to see my boys. She sent pictures and updates. And she was flexible with our schedule. My boys were so well taken care of!”

Shaelyn S.

“Michelle was absolutely wonderful! She made sure Jack felt at ease with her and get me updated while I was away. 10/10 and will be booking her in the future!”

“Taylor did an awesome job watching my four-legged shadow while I was away. She stayed at my place for three days, kept the house in perfect shape, and sent me daily photo updates of Gunner looking like he was living his best life — lounging like a king and probably judging squirrels. Her communication was top-notch; I always knew how Gunner was doing (and honestly, I think he might’ve preferred her company over mine by the end of it). I came home to a happy pup and a clean house — can’t ask for better than that. If you’re looking for someone reliable, friendly, and dog-whisperer-level good, Taylor’s your person. Gunner already voted that she’s hired again.”

“We are very happy with the performance of Michelle while away from our four pets on vacation. We really appreciated the photos and correspondence from Michelle while we were away. Returned home to find all of our pets well taken care of and happy. Would use Michell (and her daughter) again.”

Diana M.

“The boys really had a great time with Teresa!”

About: I have spent most of my life with animals in the house. In middle school and high school, I volunteered after classes or on weekends at animal shelters. Once I turned 16 and had my own car, I started getting in trouble for bringing home strays I found on the street. My love for animals runs deep and after a few less-than-ideal pet sitting experiences of my own, I want to ensure that your animals are well loved and cared for while you're gone! I am currently working towards my masters here in Lawton and work an 8-5 job, meaning I can dedicate my weekends and my evenings to your fur babies. Through my experience with my own special needs pets, I try to focus on the specialized needs of all of your pets. Whether that be extra long walks or needing special medications, I am willing to do it all.

“Kylie was great. She updated me frequently, sent me pictures of my babies and followed all instructions. My babies were well fed and content while I was gone.”

“Marja was great! Super flexible with my cats needs and sent pics to keep me updated.”

About: I have 1 year of experience taking care of dogs/walking or sitting them. I also had a 16 year old and currently a 2 year old Maltese who I have taken care of during my life, so I am definitely a dog gal! I am currently home for the next 3 months before I go back to school, so I will have plenty of time to play, walk, and take care of your pups! I’m available during the weekends and some days throughout the week depending on the time! I have a puppy brother back home and he is treated like a little prince! I do live with a fenced in yard and live close to a couple of fenced in dog parks, so your doggo will definitely get enough time outside!

About: I’ve had the joy of caring for dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, and personalities for the past 10 years. Whether it's daily walks, drop-in visits, or overnight stays, I treat every pet like my own fur babies with love, patience, and attention. My services are tailored to each pet’s routine, personality, and comfort level. I prioritize communication and sending regular updates. I’m experienced with senior pets, medication administration, high energy breeds, and shy or anxious animals. Whether your dog loves long walks or your cat prefers a quite friend I provide dependable, compassionate care that fits your pet’s lifestyle. Every pet is different, so I happily adjust timing and activities to match your pet’s routine—just let me know their preferences, feeding times, and any special needs. I work during the week but have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide morning, midday, and evening care. I’m off on weekends, which means I have full availability to dedicate extra time, attention, and care to your pet. Your pet’s safety and happiness are always my top priorities. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family member, and I take that responsibility seriously. I follow Rover’s safety guidelines and take extra precautions based on each pet’s unique needs. From secure leashes to gates and entryways, I make sure your pet is safe, supervised, and cared for with attention to detail. My home is a cozy, welcoming space designed with pets in mind. I have a fully fenced-in yard that allows for safe, supervised outdoor play and bathroom breaks. Your pet will enjoy plenty of fresh air and room to move around comfortably. I also share my home with a friendly, well-behaved dog and two gentle, social cats. They are used to having guest pets around and help create a calm, pet-positive atmosphere. If your pet enjoys the company of other animals, they'll have great companions. If they need space, I ensure slow, respectful introductions or separate accommodations. I’m happy to accommodate crate-trained dogs and can follow your specific instructions on crate routines—whether it's for bedtime, rest periods, or while I’m away briefly. I view crates as a safe, cozy space for dogs and make sure they feel comfortable and stress-free while crated. Communication is key. I’ll provide regular updates, photos, and notes during your pet’s stay, so you’re always in the loop and confident your furry friend is in good hands.
