About: I have had pets of all varieties! I have cared for strays, my families pets, outside animals, large and small dogs. I also have 5 pets myself! 4 cats and a senior dog! I have experience administering medications, dealing with food restrictions, bathing, and manually aiding a senior pup if I have to! I volunteer at an animal shelter in my spare time, and work with 6 furry friends and my regular job. My goal is to provide safe, furry friendly services to your kitty or pup! Hi! I am flexible with my pet care and will be upfront with what my availability is. I am currently a college student so some hours are non negotiable! Just send me a request and I will try my best to accommodate your pups needs! I care for the cats in my home, as well as my dog. My dog requires medication distribution so I have experience with that, and basic pet care needs!

Trust. I have implicit trust that Haley will do what she needs to do to care for and protect my dogs and home. It's hard to find good reliable individuals these days. I look forward to continuing to utilize her professional services.

Jaelyn was terrific with my fur-babies. They all loved her so much! I would get home and Molly would be asleep in her lap, Charlie squished up between her and a blanket and Peanut within easy reach for a scritch here and there! Even Lucy, my miss independent would cuddle with Jaelyn! She would definitely be welcomed back to care for my littles.

About: I have experience caring for high-energy dogs, including golden retrievers, managing multiple pets, and handling routines calmly. My experience with young children has strengthened my patience, attentiveness, and reliability as a sitter. Caring for pets is part of my daily routine. I schedule regular walks, playtime, feeding, and attention, ensuring dogs stay active, happy, and well-cared for while I work remotely. I provide attentive care in my client’s home, including regular walks, playtime, feeding, and monitoring.

About: I've had pets around me since I was a baby. I had dogs growing up, and I've been around them ever since. I've been around 20 pound dogs, to 120 pound dogs, nothing is too much or too little for me. Currently I don't have a job, but I am just looking around at dog walking agin. I am supposed to go into the service in about a month, so im trying to make some extra money before I ship off! In my house, I have a fenced in yard, that keeps my pitbull safe, and happy. I would love to be in someone’s house where they have a fenced in yard, but I know that’s not ideal for everyone. If they don’t that’s perfectly fine, we just take the fur baby out in a leash to be outside then!

Megan was beyond marvelous with my Nali. She stepped in last minute and went above and beyond to make sure he was happy and comfortable, and made sure to share regular photos and updates. It was immediately clear how much she cares about animals, and making sure our anxious boy felt relaxed and safe around her. This was the first vacation where we truly didn’t worry about him, and that alone says everything. She even helped out with brushing and nail trims!! I couldn’t recommend her more highly!

Carissa is amazing! Great attention to details. Spent time with our sweet old guy Mr. Wrigley and was just so attentive to his needs. She was easy to talk to, friendly and such a pleasure to work with. Will definitely ask her back again when we’re out.

About: I’ve worked in Animal Welfare for three years now, and currently work at the belleville area humane society. I see myself continuing down this path and would like to broaden my horizons. I’m looking into starting training as well in the future. I work with dogs and cats daily. I have nights off and don’t usually have other activities that occupy my nights. My off days are usually completely free. I live in a house currently and let my dogs out leashed. I don’t do any unsupervised activities. When I have other pets in my home/care I stay alert.

Kelly was very easy to work with and we trusted her to stay at our house for over a week to take care of our two dogs. She followed the instructions we provided and took especially good care of our 25 year old dog who is on seizure medication. We will definitely use her services again the next time we have the need for a dog sitter. Thank you Kelly!

Look no further for the perfect pet sitter. Kiera is absolutely wonderful! She treated my babies like her own and got our extremely skiddish previously feral cat to snuggle on her lap which is unheard for a stranger. She went above and beyond to provide care, with frequent pics and updates if you request that. We couldn’t be happier!

Abigail was great with our two dogs. Our pup who is anxious around new people quickly warmed up to Abigail and was almost immediately comfortable with her. Abigail sent us plenty of pictures and kept us at ease with regular updates while we were traveling. She left our house clean and tidy. We would definitely recommend Abigail’s services!

Katelyn sent pictures throughout the week of our animals. When we returned the house was clean and orderly, and our pets were very well cared for. I left some extra cash for her and asked for a few extra things which were all done also, getting mail, bringing a package in, and watering my potted plants. Would definitely use her in the future.

Kyleen is the best! We only ever pick her to watch our Sadie girl because of her attention to detail, snuggles, kindness, and her going above and beyond. You can depend on Kyleen!
