“NIkki and Mark care for Paulina with Christ's love and wisdom that keeps me at rest knowing that they care for her and me too as belonging to our Lord Jesus Christ....such overwhelming loving kindness and diligence they shine forth! To all who would read this, may you too receive Him unto eternal life and never fear the coming judgement, nor hell; but rest in His love now and forever. His promises and power to believe and receive Him are in Himself, The Word of God, The Holy Spirit, and our Father. Please read the Gospel of John and know that your salvation is forever! aye in Jesus, daniel”

About: I have grown up around pets and have owned dogs, cats, and guinea pigs. I have experience sitting for neighbors and friends. I have cared for dogs of all sizes, cats, and small animals. I have taken a veterinary assistant course which helps me to know how to best care for your pet! I have never met an animal I didn't get along with and would love to meet and care for yours! I work part-time from home and my work will travel, so I will have lots of time to provide whatever care your pet might need! I will provide compassionate, exceptional care for your pet in your home, keeping them in their own environment. I am available for drop in visits or to spend the day with them if you are at work or on vacation. I would love to play with your animals, keep them company, let them out, feed them, walk them, and whatever else you may need!

About: I have been helping to take care of family pets for the last handful of years. Taking walks and check ins for potty breaks and food! I work full time, 40 hours a week. Will be able to work before and after shifts, days off, weekends included! Holidays depend on availability. I ensure all environments are clean, safe, and comfortable for the pets. Food, water, clean litter available at all times when I am there with them

About: I’ve grown up with two dogs—one small and one large—so I’m comfortable handling all sizes. I enjoy caring for high-energy dogs just as much as calm, cuddly ones. Whether it’s playtime or downtime, I adapt to each dog’s personality and needs. I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I do not have a job, I am looking but am currently unemployed and starting school again in August! I will have plenty of time to visit your pups this summer and even during school:) I have a fenced backyard with lots of space and trees for your dog to run around!! I have a Big German Shepard who is friendly and loves to play with other dogs outside!!

“Sam has been an absolutely terrific dog walker for Kyra. This is my first time using Rover, and so far, Sam has beyond exceeded any expectations I had for a new dog walker. She communicates well, sends photos and updates daily, always gives treats, and even refills Kyra’s water bowl if needed. Kyra has been so happy having Sam come to visit while I’m at work and I would certainly recommend Sam to anyone seeking a trustworthy, reliable dog walker.”

About: With over 18 years of hands-on dog care experience, my calm and gentle approach helps dogs feel safe, comfortable, and happy in my care. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or just relaxing companionship, I’m all about making your pet feel loved and at home. I offer flexible care to fit your schedule! I’m available for dog walks and drop-in visits between 7:00 AM – 12:00 PM and again from 2:00 PM – 6:00 PM. I also provide overnight stays in your home, so your pet can stay comfortable and relaxed in their own space while you’re away. Whether you need a midday walk, morning potty break, or full overnight care, I’ve got you covered. My approach to pet care is calm, patient, and full of love. I bring a laid-back energy that helps pets feel safe and at ease, especially those who are shy or anxious. I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality and comfort level, whether that means slow introductions, quiet companionship, or playful energy when they’re ready. I treat every pet like my own—with gentle care, respect, and lots of affection. Animals naturally gravitate toward me, and I take that trust seriously.

“Erica is awesome with our two rotties! She goes above & beyond to make sure they're happy & comfortable. Very flexible too, as we've had some last minute walks we scheduled with her. Highly recommend her to pet owners!”

“Jessica came to walk and feed our Schnauzer girls as promised. She sent pictures and a pee/poop report. We would definitely recommend her to care for your dogs.”

“Ashley is kind and super flexible! I had a few things come up and she was able to help me out! My pup also seems to really enjoy her walks and is tired after. Win win!”

About: I've taken care of pets of every kind since I was eight. Neighbors, friends and family rely on me to play, feed, walk and take care of their pets when their gone. I'm currently a college student working part-time, so i'll have plenty time to play and take care of your pet! I am pretty much available 24/7 to provide the best care for your animal. At a client's home, I swing by to feed their pets according to their usual schedule. Then, it's outside for a walk, letting them stretch their legs and do their business. I make sure to give them plenty of attention and playtime during the visit, so they feel loved and cared for.

About: I worked at the local pet store for a little over a year, many of my friends have relied on me to watch their animals when they were gone for a bit. I am currently not working at the moment, so this will be my full time job for now. I have experience with cats, dogs, ferrets, and all reptiles!! I have a fenced in backyard, friendly dogs. Always make sure they have water, toys, etc. Crated during the nighttime when we are asleep for the night.

About: I have taken care of all types of animals, from basic to exotic, since I was 15. I have 2 years of experience taking care of pets for just family and friends and 4 years of taking care of pets for other people :) I have plenty of time to take care of your pets!! I can do anything from pet sitting, to stopping by to let pets out or feed them! I also love taking walks and going on jogs, so bring your pet along with me would be amazing!! I am more than happy to take care of pets in your home! I have a large house, but not much of a backyard, as well as roommates, so boarding in my home may be slightly less likely, but still an option!

About: I got my first dog when I was only 6 years old, since then, I care about all the dogs so much & help my family & my friends with their dogs, cats or any other animals - even horses - they need help with. I can help with puppies & seniors, I can care about them in health & sickness. My dogs are my children, they are my family. I spoil all my babies from playing in the pool or giving them a ride in a special pet stroller - & spoil them to death. I have 1/4 acre, almost fully fenced yard, but I also have invisible fence. Plenty toys & my dog to keep company & play with. I have mini pool to cool them off & pet stroller if they are tired or too old to walk. You need just bring your baby & the food & I will provide love, care & everything else they need. I work 2-3 days a week for only few hours. Sometimes I help with my grandchildren or I need to run out for an hour to do extra special chores to care about other animals. Besides this, I am always home. I enjoy playing & cuddling with dogs & cats, they are the best friens & family. If I am at your house - your rules, if we are at my house - also your rules but my little guests are always allowed to be on my sofa or sleep on my bed.

About: I have cared for dogs the past 15 years. From getting energy out to slowing down for cuddles, I love all aspects of dog care. I have experience with all ages, especially seniors with special medical needs. I work a rotating schedule that leaves whole days free to care for your furry family members! My boarding schedule rotates with my work schedule but with enough notice I can make anything work. Your animals safety is my top priority when they are in my care. I follow all instructions given by you to keep them safe. My yard is fenced and nothing hazardous to your pet is within their reach.

About: I live on a small farm in Harvard we have horses , 2 dogs , 1 cat and a flock of chickens . I’m comfortable with all animals !! Oh ….. except for snakes :) I’m retired so I have plenty of time . Love spending time with all my animals and catering to their needs . My husband is semi retired so my availability is huge . My dogs are always supervised when outside exploring our 15 acres . They love outside time !!! They also of course enjoy their couch time .

About: I’ve grown up in home with all kinds of pets. From dogs and cats to reptiles, amphibians, bunnies, hedgehogs and fish. My family has owned and operated an axolotl business for 7 years. We raise, breed, rescue, and rehabilitate axolotls. It’s been very rewarding. I’m available to work any day of the week from 9:00-5:00 pm. I prefer weekdays to weekends but I am flexible. Temporary or permanent shifts are both fine. I believe in caring for other’s pets as I would my own. I’m very happy to follow whatever works for you. I want your animals to feel safe and secure with me.

About: I’ve had dogs around all my life. I started helping take care of and learned the responsibilities of owning a pet at 5. I also have experience pet sitting for neighbors (cats, dogs, sugar gliders, turtle). I currently am searching for a job but just finished my undergraduate program at UIUC this spring and have open availability as of right now. I’m extremely detail oriented and will follow the routine of the pet. I am currently not able to house any pets currently due to having a dog at home.

About: I have tons of experience with dogs and cats! I worked at a dog breeder/kennel(My Bodyguard German Shepards) for almost 5 years, here I cared for multiple dogs at a time and even helped train the puppies. I have trained both of my dogs a rottweiler and Saint Bernard. I am a HUGE animal lover and feel as though I am very good with both cats and dogs. I have housesat/dogsat for many of my family friends in the past. I am currently home from school and am on summer break so my schedule is pretty open/flexible. I can for the most part work any day/time of the week. I make sure to always put the animal's safety first, and I'm very good at reading their body language and knowing how to handle any situation.

About: I've had dogs since I was 10 years old. I grew up with them. I currently have a very energetic 3 year old female boxer name Parker and a 9 month old mix who would love some company! I am currently working from home full time. So I am home all day. Your pet would have my full attention. No need to worry! My dogs had free range of the house. We also have a dog park that we frequently visit with 7 minutes of our home. Which is in a gated community.

About: I have been working with dogs for nearly 5 years now. From wild puppies to older couch potatoes, I love them all. I have tons of experience with dogs that may need extra care, such as special behavioral or medical needs! No size or breed will scare me, for I have handled them all! Currently I am working part-time, therefore I have much time on my hands. In my free time I volunteer at the humane society in Janesville, WI, particularly the Dog Day Out program. No matter if you need a dog walker or babysitter, I have the availability for both! In order to keep the dog as happy as possible while their family is away, I prefer to visit my clients house. That way the animal is used to their own space. This ultimately reduces stress for everyone!
