House Sitting in Galena

“Ryan was really great with my dogs. He sent me pictures of him playing with my dogs. I would definitely use him again.”

“Ashley was a great sitter! She followed all of our instructions and asked questions when other issues came up. Our boy can be a handful, but Ashley seemed to take his behavior in stride. We got daily updates with pictures of our dog looking happy and cared for.”

“I cannot say enough good things about Daniel. We had hired another sitter who, in the middle of a 3 week stay abandoned our dog. I was able to reach Daniel on very short notice and he stepped in and saved the day. He stayed with Buddy and provided excellent care until we returned home. This is the second time we have used Daniel and both times he was great. Not only was the dog well cared for, the house was clean and tidy when we returned.”

“We could not have asked for a better house/pet sitter than Melinda. She was very attentive, detailed, and caring of our “furry family “. It is obvious that she loves all animals and shows in her care for them. Penny, our 9 year old Lab had an emergency requiring vet care, and Melinda quickly and confidently handled the situation while keeping us informed. This issue also required additional time and attention and her and her husband upended their schedule to make sure Penny had the necessary care. We highly recommend Melinda for any pet care needs!”

“Kylie was absolutely wonderful with my dog and two feral cats that I care for. She’s kind, responsive, and kept me up to date on everything happening with my pup and home. She left my house clean and even washed and changed my sheets! I trust her completely with my babies.”

Shauna H.

“Our 4 dogs had an amazing time with Makenzie! Lots of pictures and updates. Came home to a clean home and happy pets. Will 100% use again, and 100% would recommend!”

Shannon H.

“Sandra exceeded our expectations by a mile! We have two 6 month old Golden Retriever puppies who are a lot of work and Sandra handled their care with ease! We received morning and evening updates with plenty of pictures to relieve our anxiety from leaving them. One of our puppies needed two daily medications and Sandra was very prompt with their med schedule. She provided daily walks and was always there to let them outside to run around and play and give them plenty of love. When we returned from our trip we had daily notes on what the boys were up to, any new behaviors or just new funny quirks they developed. We also were able to see the spreadsheets she brought verifying the walks and meals they were given. Our house was left very clean and tidy and so were the puppies! It’s not even a question, we will most definitely be using Sandra in the future!!”

About: I have experience with dogs of all kinds. One thing that separates myself from other dog walkers is that I treat each pet how I would treat my own and I treat my own like my kids. My goal is to provide the same care for your dogs as I expect for mine. Pet care is a major part of my daily and weekly routine since I own a dog walking/sitting business. I am almost always available to meet my clients needs for their furry companions. The only times when I am not available is when I am coaching basketball. Unfortunately, I do not care for pets at my home. However, when caring for pets in your home I will keep them on the exact routine as they are accustomed to to make them as comfortable as possible.

“Owen was fantastic! He communicated well and took such great care of our sweet pup. He also took immaculate care of the house. We already have him booked for another trip. We are grateful to have found him - our pup loves him!”

Stephanie L.

“Maya was great! She kept me updated and my house was cleaner than when I left. My dogs seemed happy and relaxed the entire time we were gone. I highly recommend Maya!”

Tara D.

“Caitlyn was sweet with our dog. She also was kind as I rushed through instructions with her. Great attitude and gave our dog all the snuggles like he loves.”

Bekka S.

“Lily is awesome. Took care of my baby for 2 nights and we are very pleased with her service. Definitely sticking with her for whenever we need someone to watch Brie again. Thank you very much!”

I have 3 poodles of my own! and I have also owned rats and hamsters before. I would love to cater to your furry family! I currently work a 9-5 pm at a veterinary hospital. I have plenty time for your furry friends and their overall well being and task that may come with that. I am very flexible to fitting your normal schedule to keep your pets as comfortable as possible. I will make sure your pets are take out frequently and are able to get lots energy out and love.

About: I have cared for animals of all kinds—cats, dogs, and birds—since I was a kid. My experience includes caring for my own dogs, from newborn puppies to senior dogs with special needs like managing diabetes. I also volunteer at Jeffersonville Animal Shelter, where I walk puppies and help get them some fresh air and exercise. Additionally, I’ve had the opportunity to care for coworkers’ dogs, which has made me comfortable handling dogs of all sizes, ages, and breeds—no dog is too small, big, young, or old for me. My own fur baby sadly passed away this past April due to cancer, and because of that, I’m passionate about spreading love and care to as many animals as possible. This work means as much to me as it does to those I’m helping! I work Wednesday through Saturday from 8 AM to 6:30 PM, so I’m happily available to care for your pets full days on Sundays, Mondays, and Tuesdays. I’m also available to stay overnight during the week to keep your furry friends company and make sure they feel safe and loved. Whether it’s going for walks, playing, or just being there for snuggles, I treat every pet like my own and make their happiness my priority. :) When providing in-home boarding, my goal is to ensure your pet feels comfortable, safe, and cared for in their own familiar environment. I follow your pet’s daily routine as closely as possible—from feeding and medication to walk times and bedtime rituals! I treat your home with the utmost respect and care, keeping it clean, secure, and just as you left it. I maintain open communication throughout the stay, providing regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing.

About: I have taken care of dogs and farm animals my entire life. My dogs have been to obedience training and I have learned a lot from that. I enjoying playing outside with the dogs and just giving them attention. They are seriously our family and I treat them that way I have a very flexible work from home schedule. My boys are grown and don’t need like they did when they were young so I would have time to walk and play with your dogs and if you like take them to the park I have two very friendly dogs and a separate living area in my basement. Any duration to my family would be treated as family and cared for

About: I treat every animal like family and I always aim to leave tails wagging and hearts at ease. With over 9 years of hands-on experience caring for everything from gentle giants like Great Danes to tiny companions like hamsters and frogs, I bring dependable, loving, and knowledgeable care to every pet I meet. I specialize in senior and special-needs pets, including medication administration and mobility support, and I’m confident handling everything from playful puppies to geriatric animals. Pet care has been in my daily routine since childhood, with myself having two senior Great Danes. I am available all weekdays and weekends from any time in the morning to any time at night I am comfortable taking your dog out on a leash if you don’t have a fenced in yard to let your dog out in. I am a quick learner and know how to administer medication. I have nine years of experience handling and caring for two Great Danes. I love to play and cuddle with animals so they get individualized care and attention.

About: I've been pet sitting, house sitting,farm sitting, and more for neighbors and connections since I was 5yo. While no one wants anything to happen to their pets, I have the experience to handle any abnormal incident or emergency that may occur while owners are away. I am an experienced dog trainer and Former Veterinary Technician. Over a decade handling and training service dogs, specifically medical alert and response dogs, using positive reinforcement methods. I can't wait to me you and your pets!! At the moment, I have created a pet and farm start up, so I can make you and your animal(s) needs fit my schedule. Pets(and their parents) are my top priority, so I will do my best to work anything in my schedule around yours and give you and your animals the best, most responsible care. I care for pets in their owners home at the moment, though I'm working towards building the ideal training and boarding facility to better serve locals with their pets needs.

“Jenna has stayed at our home several times and has been reliable, accommodating, always done a great job with our animals giving us peace of mind when we are away.”
