House Sitting in Gardner

About: I’ve worked in veterinary medicine as a veterinary assistant and kennel assistant in multiple different offices and shelters for ten years. I also have owned numerous dogs and cats in my lifetime. I have experience with diabetic cats and dogs, and administering medication. There is no dog i cannot medicate when he needs them! I’m a stay at home mom of 1 with two dogs and one cat, so I’m always available. Rain or shine, day or night, I can always pop in on Fido or Fluffy! Unless otherwise discussed with the pet parent, my usual rounds would include cleaning and refilling the water bowl at every visit, feeding at the agreed upon times, bathroom breaks upon my arrival and departure, regardless of the length of my stay, and plenty of loves and scritches for your four legged best friend!

“Sam was great with our cats and senior dog! It was great knowing our animals were in good hands when we were away. Would definitely book again!!”

I have my own two dogs I take care of as well. & with my open availability, it allows me be there for you & your pets whenever needed. Please let me know how I can help.

“Chelsey was amazing to work with! My dogs generally take some time to warm up to house guests but they liked her immediately. That, and her frequent updates made for a stress free vacation with my family. She even took care of our temporary mice pets! I would totally book with her again!”

About: I’ve been with animals since a baby. My parents always had a bunch of animals and dogs were a big part of my life. Once I turned 18 I’ve added a bunch to my own little family. I have two dogs who travel with us and enjoy the outdoors so much. I also have many reptiles, small creatures, and two cats. I completely love the affection and bond created with animals. My fiancé works full time while I stay at home. I’m currently doing at home projects and with being at home am able to have lots of time to spend with my animals and help others. I have two very friendly dogs who love playing with other dogs. Along with that I have two cats and many reptiles. All animals are like family and I wouldn’t want anything happening to them.

About: I have a little more than 4 years of pet sitting from family to friends. I worked in an animal hospital for a little over a year so my pet handling skill are excellent. I am able to distribute medication, treat injures, and give lots of love to animals. I don’t just do this for fun, I do this because I have a passion for making pet owners and pets happy. I like to believe I do go the extra mile for families and pets to make them happy. I know what it is like to be in the need of a pet sitter that you can trust and I aspire to be that pet sitter for people so they do not need to worry. I have a big heart for animals

About: Back and better than ever! To my regulars who stuck with me through life changes, I thank you. And to my new clients, welcome! Single motherhood has been an adjustment but I still make time for my furry, feathered and scaled favorites! Availability is quite random at the moment, but I will do my best to accommodate. For those new to my profile I have cared for dogs both big and small (I adore big dogs. Give me all the mastiffs, cane corso, boxers..) cats, rabbits and even turtles! Happy to work with all temperaments and I’m not one to shudder at a big bark. Currently doing this simply as an extra side hustle on top of another job! I was formerly a stay at home mom and I am now making the transition to single motherhood and this is flexibility is what will allow me to provide while caring for my son. My availability is a bit more random than most. I can walk, feed, water, crate and let a dog in and out of the home into the yard as needed! Whatever works best for you and your pet.

About: I’ve been taking care/training dogs for 6+ years. I have worked with a professional dog trainer for about three years; training, boarding, walking, socializing, and generally taking care of them. I love training dogs cool tricks and basic obedience! I am currently enrolled full time in college, but am flexible in the early mornings, afternoons, and evenings seven days a week! Just let me know! I am experienced with taking care of/training multiple dogs, but would prefer working with one dog at a time (if you have multiple) until the dogs are at a comfortable level of training. This really varies on the animals, but I work with all situations.

“Jaclynn and Nala seemed to have loved their stay with Michelle! She is very responsive and sends pictures to let you know your pups are doing okay. Will definitely book with her again”

About: I was always the go to person for pet sitting in my family. Growing up, we always had at least one dog in the house. And I was fortunate enough to have had one for 16 years. Her name was Bear. She was the best family dog anyone could ask for and I miss her very much. She is the reason I love taking care of animals so much. Recently, I have become very fond of cats and live with 2 of them. They have stolen my heart and take care of them every day. I also have two reptiles which are my whole world. No matter what animal, I would love to take care of them. I’m the sitter for you! I am in between jobs at the moment so my schedule is very flexible right now. I am very open and honest so I’m very willing to for the schedule that’s best for you and your pet! I am not offering services in my home. As much as I would love to, I rent and cannot have a lot of animals staying with me. I’m sorry for the inconvenience!

“Can't thank her enough for being able to watch my Lolita at the last minute. She was a happy dog when I got home and I had piece of mind knowing Lolita had company all day!”

“I cannot say enough great things about Kamile! She did such an amazing job with our dog. She took time to get to know him and made sure to communicate any questions. She was polite and kind- she left our house in immaculate condition when she left. We were such at ease during our trip as she made sure to Give us updates and pictures! Our dog loved her and we cannot wait to use her services again.”

I also have experience taking care of cats I absolutely love cats. And I have experience taking care of rabbits I currently have one I take care of a rabbit and a large dog all the time. I know both need lots of love and lots of play time and attention I will listen to your pets. When they need to go out, when they need to eat, when they want to play, or cuddle. In my home I will make sure they have food and water and I will make sure they go out every 2 hours or so. If they are a larger dog they can play with my puppy she absolutely loves to play. I will also take them for a walk. At the clients home it will be the same and if I can take their animal to the dog park I will do so and let them play I know they also love playing with other animals and not always just with humans

“Frank watched my baby on Friday. It was the first time I used him. He was very personable, on-time and concerned about Sierra's schedule and well being.He took her on a walk even though it has been brutally cold. I am sure Sierra loved that! Anytime she can go for a walk she's happy. We returned about 10 minutes later than I had anticipated. Frank remained here with Sierra. When I am back in Joliet and need sitter- I hope Frank is available! Thanks, Frank!”
