House Sitting in Elgin

“Annabelle was amazing with our fur babies. Not only did they warm up to her, they let her in our tiny pack almost immediately. They really loved her to stay with them. I can’t wait for our new adventure. I know I have someone who we can trust with my family - thank you Annabelle - love the Vrooman’s ❤️”

“Brandon and Catherine are great! They stayed at our home and watched our two dogs for over 10 days. We got daily updates with pictures! We have older dogs so they need to be let out more often and given medications. They were able to do this with no issues. My dogs were very relaxed when we arrived home. I highly recommend them and will be using them in the future.”

About: I've had pets most of my life. The past ten years I've been a mother of two beautiful girl fur babies. I'm looking to care for others doing what brings me joy in life. I'm available for dog walking, drop-in visits and dog boarding by appointment. I prefer a harness when walking all fur baby's so their comfortable and secure. I can walk & feed your pets at your home when I drop in for a visit. If your doggies are staying overnight please make sure to bring their preferred toys, food and bed or blanket so they feel more at ease. We only get so much time with these little angels that love so unconditionally. So let's make it count🐾🐕🥰 I have two female un-spayed fully vaccinated dogs. One is my shy little rat terrier/dachshund mix (Lucy) and the other is my lovebug beagle (Delilah). I have a fenced backyard in which I can keep our pets separate or together.

About: Hi, I’m Cas – I'm here to keep your pets happy, healthy, and stress-free at home! I’ve worked in animal shelters and as a veterinary assistant, so I’ve had hands-on experience with pets of all ages, temperaments, and medical needs. I’m familiar with canine & feline CPR and first aid, and I have extensive experience stabilizing critically ill and crashing animals. Whether your pet is perfectly healthy, managing a chronic condition, or just needs a little extra support, I’m confident and comfortable providing high-quality care. Some of the conditions I’ve worked with include diabetes (including insulin administration - and I'm a T1D myself, so you can trust that I truly understand the complicated ins & outs of diabetic care, hypo/hyperglycemia, and monitoring), kidney disease (including administration of subQ fluids), allergies (both skin-related and dietary), and senior pet care. I’m experienced with both oral and injectable medications, and I always prioritize a gentle, stress-free approach. I am a Fear-Free Certified professional, I prioritize minimizing stress for pets during interactions. I will work to make every experience as calm and comfortable as possible for your animal. When you entrust me with your animal companion's care, you can expect a reliable, gentle, and knowledgeable approach. I offer pet sitting in your home because I truly believe pets are happiest in the space they know best. I do my best to maintain their routines and provide comfort, enrichment, and calm companionship while you’re away. Looking forward to meeting your pet and making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. Pet care naturally fits into my flexible schedule, which means I can fully adapt to your pet’s needs. Whether it’s early morning feedings, midday playtime, or scheduled medications, I’m able to provide care that matches your animal companion's routine without conflicts or time constraints. The most comforting place for an animal is their own home, surrounded by familiar scents, sounds, and routines. That’s why I offer in-home pet sitting—so your animal companion can stay relaxed and happy in the space they know best. Whether it’s curling up in their favorite sunny spot or sticking to their usual feeding schedule, I make sure everything feels just right while you’re away. My goal is to provide gentle, attentive care that keeps your animal comfortable and your mind at ease.

About: I tailor my services to meet the dogs' needs. I offer flexible times and dates. And secure safety at all times, looking after your pet. I currently work part time so I can be pretty flexible with times and dates. I will give you dog or cat all the attention they need. I do not board at this time, but I will come to your home and take care of your animals. While you are at work or on vacation.

“MaShon is a dream come true! My pup, Lady, is fearful of strangers and slow to warm up. MaShon has taken extra time with Lady and now they are best friends. My pup has gotten better with strangers and other dogs since MaShon has started taking care of her. She truly has a gift when it comes to animals. I never worry about anything when I leave Lady with her because I know the love and care she has for my dog. I highly recommend!”

About: I grew up on a farm with cattle, horses, dogs, cats, and even goats. I have always been an animal lover. I was also assisting a breeder who bred English bulldogs for about 14 years before the breeder retired I am looking for some extra jobs while I’m back in Kentucky. I do seasonal work and travel a lot, so while I’m back here I’m looking for little jobs that help me stay afloat and getting to love on some animals sounds like a great way to do it. I do not allow pets to come to my home. At their home I will do as the owners have asked they will know the pets more than me. If nothing else I will always do my best to make sure the pets are comfortable happy and have all their needs met

“Stefanie sent me pictures of my sweet Ellie every day! She was quick to respond if I had questions or just wanted more pictures. She stayed in my home, and everything was just as I left it. Thanks, Stefanie!”

About: I own 2 super sweet dogs! I have had pets all my life gowing up and i was the one to take care of them. I’ve done many dog sitting jobs as walk ins and as staying over night. I love getting to bring joy to the lonely animals while families are gone! I am able to come at any times around my classes. I have a very light schedule with in person classes. I work one job 2 days a week for very short hours. I am very flexible and able to help with whatever. I always make sure to check the food and water. I like ti let them out but also get them moving when i come to get out some energy! I also will always give good love to the sweet animals:)
