About: I've pet sat for years. I love spoiling them and sending them back home. I have helped many pets that are typically apprehensive with other people come right out of their shell. I have a very loving and caring environment. With kids that also love pets as well. We have plenty of space in the back yard to run. We ourselves go on daily walks. I love animals. They are apart of our lives while they stay with us. Id say that they are way more spoiled while they are here. I provide a safe and loving environment for your pet. I treat them as if they were my own pet. I know that is easy to say but ask any of the pet parents.

About: I’ve been a dog owner my whole life, I work closely with my childhood friend who owns a dog training business herself! Together we grew up with the love for taking care of these natural sweet hearts! I consider myself lucky to be able to read a dog’s emotions to ensure everyone’s comfortable including your pet! Now I know not all dogs are the same, some need more care then others, but all need the same love and consideration! I’m currently a single mom with more then enough time on my hands to care for these animals. I don’t leave much unless it’s groceries or park outings with my dogs and kid! I love going for walks so your doggie gets to join too unless not permitted, I have a big fenced in yard aswell to meet your animals needs for exercise and potty breaks!! I take very good care of my animals insuring they get the exercise and entertainment they need aswell as making sure they get enough water and breathers! If I were to care for yours in your home I can assure you that the only focus will be meeting your dogs needs before leaving! There will be exercise aswell as potty breaks!!

“Leah does a great job with my three pups, and believe me, they are a handful! She's been working with the youngest on her jumping issues and has made a huge difference in her behavior. Leah is always on time, very dependable and has flexible availability. I highly recommend her! I couldn't be more pleased.”

About: My name is Kassidy. I have had dogs my whole life. I currently work at a vet clinic and am very comfortable with all sizes of dogs. Let me walk your dog! I work full time at a vet clinic. I can easily let out your dog before work, on my lunch break and after work if needed. I currently have three dogs of my own. They have a fenced in yard. All three of my dogs are up to date on vaccines as well.

About: I have been watching animals for 5+ years! I have cats and dogs alike! Anywhere from pups/kittens-elderly dogs/elderly cats! I have watched my aunts dogs from the time they were pups to senior dogs, plus I have also had my own dogs as well to care for! I currently own a cat that is aggressive to other humans and animals, so I do have experience with overly aggressive and overstimulated animals, because of my cat I won't be providing services at my house, but can house sit, dog walk, clean litter boxes, change the food and water bowls, give medications any time while at a clients house. I am currently working on being a stay at home mom. While my partner is home I plan to provide services to people in need of an animal sitter. If your pets are kid friendly, I will bring my baby with me to services that are required outside of my normal hours. Due to my cat I won't be providing care in my own home, but with my clients homes I will provide all necessary tasks that are asked of me, I will change the food and water, provide play time, walks/litter box cleanings, treats, medications along with endless love and affection. I can do routine potty breaks and outdoor fun, especially if their animals are kid friendly! I can do overnights if I am allowed to have my baby there also and I will respect and care for the clients homes.

About: I have had dogs in my life since I was born. Growing up we had fish, dogs, goats, a bunny, and a cat. I have had many years taking care of animals. i currently do not have a full time job or even a part time so my time is my own and I can help whenever At home I feed, water, bathe, and let the dogs run around in the backyard. Previously I have gone to relatives houses and fed their dogs and made sure they got out to potty and taken them for walks.

About: With 12 years of dog training experience, I provide knowledgeable, compassionate care for dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds, and behaviors. I specialize in obedience training for all breeds, and I’m particularly experienced in training pointing dogs for upland bird hunting, as well as training dogs in various other hunting disciplines. In addition to field training, I have worked with protection dogs and understand the skills needed to develop focus, discipline, and responsiveness. I offer dog sitting at my home, dog walking, and custom training sessions tailored to your dog’s individual needs — including behavioral challenges and medical considerations.

I am available and flexible to best tailor care to you and your dog’s needs. My property features a fenced yard connected directly to my home, in addition to a kennel run that is connected to the yard but safely separated by a gate and privacy fence. If I am sitting your dog in my home, I have a variety of dog crates and arrangements available within my home to meet your dogs needs. I have my own dogs and can have your dog interact as much or as little (or not at all) with my pack as you’d like to meet your dog’s unique needs. All dogs will be handled with a leash if not in the yard unless we have agreed to specialized training arrangements. I offer training at my property or can come to your home. I also offer dog walking. If you have questions about my services or safety protocols, please inquire.

About: I'd like to start by saying I am located in Whiteside County. Morrison specifically. I probably pop up as one of the top people because of my star status however I'm still about 45 minutes from the quad cities area...with that being said, I LOVE animals !!!!! I have a pretty flexible schedule!!! I have a separate area for cats. My dogs typically roam upstairs and the cats play downstairs in their own little sanctuary. I have multiple kennels if you prefer they stay in them rather than be out and about. Whatever you’re most comfortable with please let me know! I will accommodate your pets accordingly :) I like to make sure all animals are comfortable <3 I’d also like to mention I CAN transport animals as well, pickup AND drop off if need be up to 40 miles (out by Dixon and towards Moline) but I would need to adjust pricing depending on how far I’d be driving. Also, I cannot do extra work without charging you or tend to other animals that are not listed. It would be a disadvantage to myself. If you book with me and last minute decide you forgot to mention this this and that I'm sorry but my answer will be no. I apologize in advance. I have a large yard for dogs to run around in and a small dog run area that’s fenced in. I’m open to keeping your dogs inside my home that way I can keep a good eye on them but if they want to hang out in the yard that’s fine too. I do enjoy going to the dog park so if that’s okay with YOU then I’m open to that which is right around the corner from my house (lucky me:) I’m very experienced with use of kennels for training too. I have a lot of experience with all animals and that gentle nature they’re attracted to.

About: I have two dogs of my own that I’ve cared for since they were puppies. Also I watch the family’s pets whenever needed. Would love to be able to give your pet that same love I give my own! I’m a work from home dog mom, so I’m able to be around at all times to take care of your pets needs during the week. I have a fenced in backyard and two friendly pups to hang out with your fur baby. If your pup needs a kennel during the day, I have one available. Also plenty of fun toys too!

About: I have a lot of pets myself that I've taken care of. I've bottle feed kittens, I've trained both my dogs. I just love animals so much. I'm a stay at home mom. My kids r both in school full time. So I'm just looking for a side job. Especially with holidays coming up! I'll play, love, and care for ur dog or cat! I'm very gentle and patient. I do everything for my pets. They r like my kids.

“Brenna was awesome to work with, taking our dog Jack for a long walk every day when we were out of town, so our house sitter wouldn't be overwhelmed with an overexcited, bored dog. We came home to a happy and relaxed dog. Thank you, Brenna! We'll definitely rebook in the future.”

About: I have taken care of my pets and others all my life. Raised on a farm, I have extensive experience with various animals. We have 2 cats and 1 dog. I'm recently retired, making my availability accessible to care for other people's pets. My two cats and our dog depend on my care daily. We own 2 SUVs for transportation of your pet. We do have a fenced in play area, approximately 8'x30'. This is only for dogs that are experienced being enclosed, or smaller dogs. Also, we have a large yard for exercise and play. Our small subdivision in the country is off the main street. Neighbors walk their dogs on the street, because we have limited, slow traffic. In our home, if your pet is allowed to be on furniture or beds in your home, they are welcome on ours. I will do my best to follow routines you have developed with your pets. Same situation if I am caring for your pet in your home.

I have years of experience caring for animals at home and have a 2 years experience in dog sitting. I also have my own puppy who I have raised since he was 2 months old. I can work with just about any size dog and am not intimidated by larger breeds ( I had a 250 lb Saint Bernard growing up). I would love to make some extra money for savings and I am confident that I would be a great fit to care for your pet(s)! Thank you! - Tasha I am currently working full time at a daycare and make that my first priority. Therefore, I am available to care for your pups on on weekends only as of now.

I can handle a low energy and high energy breed, and love all dogs I currently care for three dogs daily to include walks, feeding different diets and mental stimulation.

About: Been caring for animals and loving on them all my life! Have taken care of dogs with seizures and given different kinds of meds to dogs! I’m a ER nurse who works three 12 hr shifts a week and would love to come and visit your pets on my days off! I will not bring any homes into my home. I am good at getting dogs into their crates and keeping an eye on them when outside!

About: I have taken care of pets since I was a little girl my love for animals is very strong and I'm going to school to be a vet tech. I can handle any personality in dogs and love to give them all the attention in the world. I currently am not employed and I'm available every day. I take online classes for vet tech. I am very flexible with schedules and will work with you and your pets needs. I live in the little town of fulton. I have a fenced in back yard for playing and I love taking walks by the river. I also like to take pets to the dog parks near me.

About: I do love pets! I have owned dogs, cats, horses, and a koi pond, aquariums, birds, even lizards and a pet squirrel! My farm background has included cattle and hogs too. My current fur babies are two cats. I do miss having dogs. I've had dogs for 40 years until recently. Now I just love on other peoples dogs! I am also an accomplished gardener and can help with your plant/ garden care while away. I have been to dog obedience, classes, and can help reinforce your pets training. I don't see a place to mark it on this website but I am fine with taking care of your pet bird, pond, aquariums, including exotic fish, horses, cattle and pet pigs. Let me know your preferences on keeping you updated on your pets while away. If I'm feeding your pet, I prefer a meet and greet so you are comfortable and insist on written or texted instructions on your pet's schedule in advance so it's less stressful for your pets. If they are going outside I will want to check out their fenced yard in daylight and go over any concerns for the 5 star sitter experience I offer. Right now I'm offering to walk your pet, in home visits, but I'm not offering to spend the night, or have them here at my house. I work short days 2 days a week in medical care in Sterling, and can help you before, after or lunch breaks. The other 5 days my schedule is open to travel further and to other towns I walk 3-5 miles everyday and enjoy being outside. I'm dialing down my professional work in medicine from full time to parttime to enjoy life a bit more. That is why I am new here at Rover. I can now do more things, and that includes loving more fur babies. I have a rescue cat named Tessa, she's 15 and the most snuggly cat on the planet. We sleep together. She is tiny, but the vets says she's in excellent health with fabulous teeth and labs. My huge cat Rupert is 7 and he was born on a farm, and is hard to photograph here as he covers my whole lap and then some. He has a loud purr and loves to sit a certain way on my lap. My pond is currently healthy and some of the fish are 6 inches long. I had a 3 pound koi who I trained to swim through a hoop. I loved her. Is it possible to love a fish? I did. We have a few horses renting the pasture this year. We used to own and raise gaited horses. I love horses. I think they are good at reading people, and elegant.

About: Ever since I was young, I would take care of animals. I’ve wanted to have a career working with animals for as long as I can remember. Every animal should be cared for with love and affection, from a mastiff to a guppy. They don’t get as much time on this Earth as we do, so we better make it as great as we can for them. I’ll love your animals like they’re my own, and make sure that they feel happy and content while you’re away. Animals, not just doggos, are a joy to have in my life and to care for. Thanks for taking the time to read! If you have any questions, you’re welcome to message me! ❤️ I appreciate you and wish you a great day!

“Very communicative ahead of the first walk!”
