Pet Sitting in Freeport

“Jackie was fantastic with our dogs! We received pictures and updates with each visit, and communication was great. We had a few last minute schedule changes and Jackie was beyond accommodating. I would highly recommend Jackie’s services!”

About: I will treat your pet like they’re mine 😃 I’ve been walking dogs since December at the humane society. I also volunteer at a cat rescue I work full time 5am to 2pm and then volunteer on the side. I’d like to be available a few times a week i think. At the humane society, we focus on safety as our priority for me and the pet, I will do the same with your dog or cat.

About: While I don’t have official experience, I’ve had cats and dogs my whole life and I would watch my neighbors dogs when they went out of town. I’d love to spend some time with your pets this summer! I’m a recent college grad looking for some short term work for the summer before moving in August for my post-grad job. I’m available to drop in and walk your pets or spend a bit more time with them while you take a break! Happy to stay with your pets all night or just drop by for a walk mid-day! I’ll follow you and your pets lead on how far to go, how long to play, and what to do!

About: I’ve spent years caring for pets for friends and family, including pet sitting in my home, staying in their homes, walking dogs, cleaning kennels, and bathing. I also have three years of hands-on experience working at a doggie daycare and boarding facility, where I cared for dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. This experience has given me strong skills in handling, supervising group play, maintaining safe environments, and understanding dog behavior. No matter the situation, I’m happy to work with your specific needs to make sure your pet is comfortable and well cared for. I truly love caring for animals and enjoy spending time with them outside of my regular work hours. Whether it’s the smallest pup, the biggest dog, or even cats—I love them all! I have plenty of love, attention, and care to give, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’ve had dogs my entire life, so I understand just how important it is to trust someone with your furry family members. As a pet owner myself, I know you want the very best for them—and that’s exactly the level of care I strive to provide. Your pet will be treated like part of the family, receiving all the affection, cuddles, and attention they could ever want.

About: I have had a dog since middle school. I had a standard poodle, and now my family has a golden retriever. I have lived with roommates in college with a chocolate lab and a rescue puppy. I am currently in my hometown for the summer months and looking to earn a little money before grad school. I love dogs and have a lot of experience with a multitude of different dogs due to family, roommates, and friends. I love to go on walks and understand the stress it causes owners to be away from home so long without being able to take their pet out to use the bathroom/walk. I would love to help in that regard! I will have respect for your home and dog’s/your safety. I prefer instructions so I can meet all your requests! Obviously there is a lot of trust needed for this type of work and I want to make sure to respect that.

“Kendra was a blessing! Our boys can be challenging, but she was so patient with them. She worked with us to ensure we were comfortable leaving out of state on a trip. She also made sure to communicate check ins, and take pictures so we could see our babies. Thank you!”

About: I have a lifelong passion for caring for animals, always having a beloved pet by my side. With years of experience as the go-to pet sitter in my family and friend group, I take pride in giving animals my full, undivided attention. I genuinely enjoy spending time walking and playing with all types of pets. I am committed to providing reliable and dedicated care for your pets, anytime and anywhere you need me. As a full-time pet sitter, I’m just one message away, ready to meet your needs. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority. I ensure they are well-fed, hydrated, and never miss a potty break. Daily walks and engaging playtime are always part of the care I provide. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine, as it aligns with my passion for animals and my flexible schedule. Whether it's for my own pets or those I care for as a sitter, I dedicate specific times each day to feeding, walking, and playing with them. My focus is on providing loving, personalized care that meets each pet’s unique needs. I maintain the pet’s routine, following specific instructions for feeding, medication, and exercise.

About: I'm a teacher and an animal lover! I'm great at caring for others. 😄 We have two friendly cats and would love to host some dogs. I'm available most weekends and all summer. I'm available to board your pet most weekends! You can always reach out even if my schedule says not available. Those that have boarded with us love that their pet was clean, relaxed and well cared for. My kids love animals and your pet will be given a lot of attention. We have two cats that we love dearly. Our animals are part of our family. We hope to meet a few nice families that want their pets to get some extra attention in evenings or weekends.

“Abby was an A++++++++ caregiver (of my 2 cats), a great communicator, and very kind. I am so grateful.”

About: I have some experience taking care of neighborhood dogs and cats, but most of my care experience comes from the animals I grew up with in my own home. I grew up with bigger dogs most of my childhood and even had a cat for a short time! I love all animals, big or small. I am a student who is quite involved on campus. I may have some availability during the day, but mostly in the evenings and on weekends. When at your place, I am comfortable taking your pups on walks, playing with them inside or outside, and doing really anything else they may need. I also love playing with cats or cuddling up with either of your pets on the couch if they just need some affection while you’re away.

“Zara did an exceptional job coming to our home to feed and let our 2 large dogs out. They have a lot of energy and are demand attention. Zara did a great job with each of them and their individual needs. Highly recommend Zara as a pet sitter!”

“Abby was awesome with our dogs and responded right away when you message her! She was super helpful and let us adjust our times when we needed her to let our dogs out. I would not hesitate to use her again!”

“Mikayla really is the absolute best! She is amazing with our animals! This was the second time she has watched our fur babies, and couldn’t ask for someone better!”

About: ​I have been surrounded by dogs and cats my entire life, learning from a young age exactly what it takes to keep pets happy, safe, and comfortable. Whether your fur baby needs a high-energy walk, a strict feeding schedule followed, or just some dedicated cuddle time, I treat every animal as if they were my own. I'm incredibly attentive to their body language and daily routines to ensure they feel right at home. Im currently working a part time job at the hospital so I have plenty of time for your furry friends!! Im available at any time!! I live in an apartment with two of my own fur babies. I have a huge yard out front and back and live in a nice community area good for walking dogs. My apartment is very spacious for any animals coming over and my cats are very friendly and adapted to all types of animals.

About: I strive to provide the care and professionalism that I need and expect to be provided to my own pets. Dogs are wonderful creatures that deserve proper love and attention integrated into their family life. I have experience with successful training of my own dog's basic obedience skills (sit, stay, heel, eat, touch, shake, etc). Have taken care of many other dogs, reptiles, and fish for people in my life. I am especially interested in helping reactive dogs or dogs with behavioral issues. I work freelance so I set my own schedule for the most part. Completely flexible for clients needs. A few weeks of the year I'm booked for longer gigs but that is easily identifiable up front for potential clients. Care for clients is completely dependent on their needs and comforts. I will always defer to the client for what is needed for them and their environment. Open and honest communication is the foundation for care and comfortability.

“I was so nervous to leave MG alone but Rover has some great people and we are very blessed to have found out about this service. I was also especially nervous because MG is a rescue that I rescued myself and so not much information is known. So im still navigating and understanding her personality. She did so good with Valleri and im so happy that it went good. I also feel relieved MG has been able to go outside for a while and eat and drink. Thanks so much for all you do!!”

“Heather was great!!!! She contacted me with problems and sent pictures. She took amazing care of our kitties while we were away. She made a stressful weekend away for us a little easier. We will definitely book her again!!!”

About: I have fostered about 20 dogs over the years through Underdog Rescue, MN. I have a pure love for animals! Would love to be there for your dog! I am currently at home each day and could assist in anyway that is needed for your dog. They would be able to roam freely as I am home. No fenced in back yard but I do have a yard for bathroom breaks. I do have one dog and a cat so I would need to make sure they would get along with each.

About: I bring two years of vet tech schooling and a genuine love for dogs and cats, offering safe, attentive, knowledgeable care that keeps every pet relaxed and happy. I'm currently working part time so I have lots of free time to care for your furry loved ones. My availability is pretty flexible for the summer :) I have a fenced in yard and 1 dog who is friendly and crate trained. I’m attentive to noise, stimulation, and comfort, especially for pets who may be anxious in new environments.

About: I'm a zookeeper at a zoo plus I have cats, dogs,guinea pigs, rabbit, hedgehogs and bearded dragon that I take care of. I adore animals and treat them like a member of the family. Animals give us unconditional love in which all of them deserve to be treated with the same respect and love. I want to provide the best possible care to each animal. I also used to volunteer my time at the humane society in St cloud MN as well as in West Virginia. Animals are the best and deserve the best care and love we can give them. I can do boarding as well as walks, coming to your house and feeding/ playin with your animal when your away. I can see all kinds of animals such as snakes, rats, iguanas,ferret, chincillas, guinea pigs, cats, dogs, etc!
