Pet Sitting in Fairview Heights

“Gerica is a great match for our boys! She is reliable, flexible and great with communication. She goes the extra mile in my opinion, keeping things neat and tidy which is greatly appreciated! Her commentary is funny and accurate based on their personalities 💕. Thank you for taking such good care of them!”

“Katelyn did an amazing job checking in on my kitties. I loved getting the pictures while we were away! I hope to book her again in the future and 10/10 recommend her for your kitty needs 😻”

“Kelly was so great with our anxious dog. She reassured me throughout the visit (and before haha). She took things slow with our dog and gave him his space. We are thankful to have her stop by on a weekly basis. Kelly also communicates very quickly and has good availability on her schedule!”

“I really appreciated Amy A. her husband and little boy taking care of Jackie, Maddie and Gertie. From the pics that they sent me it looked like my three cats enjoyed their company and were fed in a timely manner. I would certainly recommend them to be pet sitters to anyone who needs their pets taken care of when they are out of town.”

“Thank goodness for Rachel's help! She helped to take care of my dad's support dog and give him insulin shots twice a day. I don't know what I would have done without her help. Rachel was very responsive and caring.”

“Julia was amazing!!!! Our pets loved her so much!!!”

About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, and everything in between since I was in grade school. Neighbors, friends, and family have come to me to watch and care for their pets. I have experience caring for the smallest of animals, having cared for two separate litters of kittens who were separated from their mothers at a young age and a litter of puppies whose mother my family fostered during and after her pregnancy. I also have experience caring for senior animals, as many of my family’s dogs and cats have lived long lives (including one of puppies from the litter we fostered)! I currently work from home and have a very flexible schedule, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your animals and take them out according to their needs! It is also possible I can make some adjustments to my schedule with proper notice if you need your animals watched during one of my off days. I can adjust my visits to your animals needs! I understand some love to run and play outside or be taken on walks, while others prefer the quiet and cuddles. Share your animal’s preference so I can cater to their needs!

“Rachel was great during the drop in visits. Our recently rescued pug is overweight & vision impaired so he requires the medicated eye drops, & Rachel was very caring in placing the eye drops. Our pug also takes awhile to relieve himself during a walk & Rachel was kind enough to take him on an extended walk so he could potty/poop multiple times during the walk. She was attentive to Totoro & we appreciated her accommodating his needs. Will definitely be utilizing her dog walking services again!”

“Nick did an amazing job watching my dogs while I was away. He is very knowledgeable about taking care of dogs and that out my mind at ease when I was out of town. When I came home, my dogs and cat were completely calm as if I had only been gone for a few minutes instead of a few days.”

“Hazel is always so amazing with our two kitties. The thorough updates and pictures each visit helps so much when I’m feeling guilty for leaving them.. especially when I see how many treats they are getting. We have a very fast eater who will try to steal the other’s wet food, and Hazel sits with them to make sure meal time is fair. Play time is really important for our brother/sister pair and her visits with them are always action packed. I’ve been using Rover for years and can say she has been the best drop-in sitter I’ve ever had. Thank you Hazel!”

“If you’re in need of an attentive, caring, timely, kind, and dedicated pet sitter, look no further. Alina is easily the best pet sitter I’ve ever had! Not only does she give the utmost attention to my little furball (giving him pets, treats, and cleaning up after his messes) but she also tends to my household while I’m away …the wind had blown my recycling bin over, and she picked it all up and put the bin back in place. Above and beyond! She’s also been so incredibly flexible, and has looked out for issues with the booking (for some reason I forgot to include one date on my most recent trip, and she noticed it, notified me, and graciously added that day to the booking). With Alaina, your pets and your home are in good hands.”

“Tea has extensive experience, on both a personal and professional level, that makes her perfect as a pet caregiver. Additionally, her reliability means you can depend on her to keep to her word.”

“I highly, highly recommend Clare! She is knowledgeable and trustworthy. She is wonderful with communication and always sends update photos. It’s so nice having peace of mind while I’m away from my fur babies!!”

“Emily is very sweet and was attentive with my 3 dogs. She came 4 times a day, was prompt, and stayed with them sometimes even longer than requested. Neighbors said they spoke to her and could tell the dogs had fallen for Emily as she gave them lots of attention (and treats). I highly recommend her service.”

“Olivia has been pet sitting for nearly 4 years and has built up a great customer base already with many repeat customers. She truly cares for pets, is very dependable. Olivia also volunteers at the local animal shelter in her free time. She’s very personable, great with the pets and always does what is needed!!!!!”

“Melissa was fantastic!!! She totally put me at ease watching my fur babies! She was so careful and trustworthy for ensuring my first time on Rover was amazing! I will definitely rely on her in the future! Thank you Melissa!!!”

“Thank you so much Ami, great job”

“Diane provided exceptional care for our two senior cats during her twice-daily visits over the course of a week. She maintained a consistent schedule, always arriving promptly and providing detailed rover cards with photos each time. Despite the challenge of administering medication to one of the cats, Diane demonstrated remarkable patience, even when waiting for Ella to emerge from under the bed. The house was left immaculate, and we wholeheartedly endorse Diane for anyone seeking special care for their animals.”

“Bella is a #1 fan of all animals. She has loved them since she was a child, carrying chickens around, snuggling with cats, and teaching dogs new tricks. She has 9 of her own pets including a dog, snakes, turtles, and lizards. She has worked at the tie dyed iguana since she was 12! She is so knowledgeable about all kinds of animals and is planning to attend college in the fall and study pre-vet. Honestly, you won’t be able to find a more responsible, more animal loving person than Bella. Your pets will thank you for hiring Bella!”

“Phenomenal carer! Came to meet and greet with my boy before we left town. She took extra special care of him and sent multiple pictures of him and sent them for peace of mind. Would absolutely recommend maritza to watch your fur baby!”
