About: I have been an independent pet sitter for 17 plus years. I have plenty of experience with cats, dogs and other small critters. I have been very passionate in my love of animals for many years and all of my pets mean the world to me.

While working in the vet office I learned how to medicate cats as well as how to give subcutaneous fluids. I have worked in various animal related fields for over a decade including vet offices, shelters, grooming facilities, pet stores and pet sitting. All animals are fascinating to me and I enjoy learning about the different types of care they all need. I live in Galena IL and am willing to cover all surrounding areas 😸 Pet sitting is my main job and my schedule is currently open.

About: I’ve had a dogs in my life, since I was a child, and was introduced to cats as I ventured into the collegiate life. As an adult I have cared for dogs primarily, but recently had the opportunity to take care of the sweetest cats! I am fairly patient with pets and like to give them as much space as they like to try to not mess up the routines, but if they are balls of energy and cuddle bugs, I am more than happy to comply! I believe that walks and healthy roaming space is good for a dog’s, development and energy, and respecting a cat to make the first move to ensure respect and comfort to their environment. Hi! I’m a full-time high school interpreter and a lifelong animal lover. During the school year, I spend my days helping students thrive in the classroom — and now that summer’s here, I’m excited to dedicate my time to caring for your pets! I like doing research on the neighborhoods that I’m going into if it’s a new area, and like to understand what you have available, either a dog park, or a fenced backyard, to really understand how to best care for your dog. My dog is a big ball of energy so I have learned a lot of skills to be able to make sure that they stay in their assigned spaces, I do like to keep them with me on my lap as I work, or nearby letting them enjoy a nap.
About: I've sat for many different breeds and species over the years. I grew up always having some type of animal in the home, especially dogs. I have two dogs and a cat now. I love cooking for them and knowing exactly what is going in their food. I love making home made treats for them as well. I even sew for them at times. I've made boots, coats, beds, Halloween costumes, toys, etc. Right now, my schedule is pretty flexible, which means I have lots of time to dedicate purely to furkids. I am close with a professional dog trainer and am able to ask any question, which is always a big help. My vet has great hours and very accessible as well for any questions or concerns.

“Alisha took wonderful care of our 6 cats while we were away for almost 3 weeks. She was aware that I’m a nervous pet parent so she took the time to send me pictures and updates on our babies daily. It made me so comfortable knowing that someone who is as caring and thoughtful as she is was there. When we got back the litter boxes were in great shape and the house looked like no one had even been there. We plan to hire her again the next time we take an extended trip!”

“Heather is great with animals dogs and cats alike. She makes sure they have the proper food even makes fresh homemade food and treats.

She is great with other people's animals. Dog sits when needed. My pets all love her, I have three dogs and two cats. You would not go wrong using her as a helper.”
Erika R.

Alyssa L.
“Alyssa is such an animal lover! Dogs are her passion! She's been handling and training hunting dogs since she was 2 and has grown up with labs in the house. Every pet we have owned has chosen to sleep with her! When it comes to care, she is always checking the dogs over like their teeth, ears, etc just to be sure all is good. She definitely likes to treat the dogs but they know they have to wait til you leave the dinner table. Family friends hire her to stay at their house with their fur babies when they go on vacation instead of sending them to boarding. Alyssa would have lots of love and care for your fur baby!”
