“Sophie was. She was kind, punctual and kept us well informed after every visit. She spent quality time with our pet and our pet looked happy and stress free when we arrived home. I highly recommend Sophie! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

About: I’ve owned and cared for dogs and cats my entire life, so taking care of animals has always been a big part of my life. I currently have two cats and a bearded dragon of my own, and I understand how much our pets mean to our family. I’m comfortable caring for pets with different personalities, routines, and needs, and I’m attentive to making sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply some company, I’ll treat them with the same love and care I give my own pets. I work primarily as a server and bartender in the evenings, which gives me plenty of availability during the day to care for your pets! I am always off on Tuesdays and Sundays, so I have full availability those days for walks, drop-in visits, and extended stays. On the days I work, I’m generally available throughout the morning and afternoon, and can work with you to find a time that fits your pet’s routine. I’m flexible and happy to accommodate different schedules whenever possible! My top priority is making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and make sure to follow their pet’s normal routine, including feeding, walks, medications if needed, and plenty of attention and playtime. I’m also very attentive to doors, gates, leashes, and anything else that could affect a pet’s safety. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets and your home, so I treat both with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I’ll always keep you updated with pictures and messages so you know your pet is happy and doing well while you’re away.

About: Hi there! I’m Rajda. For the past 10 years, I’ve provided pet sitting services to friends and family so I’m used to handling feeding routines, walks, playtime, and making sure they feel comfortable. Whether you need drop-ins, overnight stays, or someone to love your fur baby like their own, I’m here for it! I may be new to professional pet sitting, but I’ve helped care for dogs, cats, chickens, goats, and cows over the past few years! I’m happy to provide updates and photos, and I’m committed to making your pet feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. I work remote, so I'll have plenty of time to play and watch your dogs or cats! I'm available for overnight pet sitting, dog walking, or check-ins throughout the week as needed. I’m active and love being outdoors, so pets who enjoy walks and fresh air will get plenty of it! I provide a calm, clean, and structured environment where pets feel safe and comfortable. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and preferred activities. I prioritize clear communication, regular updates, and photos so owners always feel confident their pet is in good hands!

About: I have always had animals and I have a genuine love for animals of all kinds. Spending time with pets doesn’t feel like a job to me — it’s something I truly enjoy. I’m naturally attentive, gentle, and patient, and I take the responsibility of caring for someone’s pet very seriously. My job is flexible so I have the time and availability to assist with whatever your needs are. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routines, and needs. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or shy and needing a calm presence, I adapt to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m reliable, organized, and committed to following your instructions closely so your pet’s routine stays consistent while you’re away. You can count on me to provide regular updates and photos, so you always feel connected and reassured. My goal is simple: to treat your pet with the same kindness, attention, and respect that I would want for my own. I would love the opportunity to earn your trust and care for your furry family member. I'm currently working part time so I have plenty of time to devote to your babies! My schedule allows me to fully devote myself to whatever instructions you leave, even if it's time consuming. I will love and enjoy every minute of interacting with and loving on your pet(s). When caring for pets in your home, I am respectful, responsible, and detail-oriented. I follow your pet’s routine exactly as instructed to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I make sure your home remains clean and secure, double-checking doors and gates each visit. I pay close attention to your pet’s behavior and well-being, and I communicate regularly with updates and photos so you always feel confident and informed. My goal is to provide safe, reliable care you can truly trust.

About: I’ve taken care of up to 4 dogs at a time. I have 6 years of experience. I have taken care of senior dogs, aggressive dogs, and easy dogs. I have always been a dog person and love taking care of them! I will make sure your animals feel loved and safe when you are away. I am currently taking a break from a full time job to take care of my mom who recently had a minor stroke. My schedule is pretty open, and I will be able to work around taking care of her. I have a fenced yard for my dog. He is aggressive and pulls on walks but we are working on it and I am capable of making sure he still gets out for walks, I am in shape so this makes it possible for me to do. As far as in my clients home, I make sure to meet with them first before showing up to dog sit. I find this to be helpful. Of course this isn’t required but I am open to that. My main goal is to make sure the pets are feeling safe and happy when their owners are away. I take safety very seriously. Examples include making sure they don’t get into anything, and that they are secured both on walks and outside in the yard. I have never had a situation with dogs having to go to vet or getting out.

About: I have a bachelor’s degree in Animal Science from the University of Illinois. My education helped build a foundation and understanding of animal welfare, behavior, nutrition, and safe animal handling. I have over two years of professional experience training dogs in basic on-leash obedience, including heel, sit, stay, place, recall, and other foundational commands. I was trained by master trainer Joel Slaven, who has trained animals for movies, SeaWorld, Busch Gardens, and worked extensively alongside Jack Hanna. In addition to dog training, I have worked as a Kennel Technician, where I helped care for up to 50 dogs at a time. My responsibilities included feeding, administering oral and subcutaneous medications, and providing daily exercise through walks and free running in a large pasture. This experience gave me the opportunity to work with a wide variety of breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I also have experience working at a dog daycare, where I supervised playgroups of 25 or more dogs and learned how to manage different personalities and energy levels in a group setting. Outside of my professional experience, I own a two-year-old English Bulldog. Her stubborn personality and high energy have taught me a great deal about patience, consistency, and adapting my approach to each individual dog. Overall, my experience has strengthened my passion for working with dogs and my commitment to providing them with patient, knowledgeable, and compassionate care. I have an open and flexible schedule, which allows me to provide dog walks/or home visits in the early morning, throughout the day and into the evening. I am happy to work around you and your pets schedule to provide dependable great care. While I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I will treat each animal as if they were my own, giving them love, patience, attention, and dependable care while following their normal routines.

I let dogs on the furniture, and provide lots of cuddles if your dog allows. I am a responsible person who sincerely loves dogs and taking care of them! I’m working but make my own hours so can accommodate varying schedules. Love to take long walks on weekends in my neighborhood or at nearby parks. I have a fenced in yard. I will keep the dogs separate. Your pet can sleep in a crate if he/she wants or on comfy pet beds - whichever works best.

About: Hi! I am a 19 year old lifelong dog owner! Over the course of my life I have owned and taken care of around 20 dogs and 2 cats. Since I have taken care of so many different dogs I have experience with a very wide range of breeds and ages! I have had many dogs from puppies all the way into their senior years. These breeds of dogs consist of German Shepherd, Belgian Malinois, Pit Bull, Jack Russel, Chihuahua, Shihtzu, Corgi, Lab mixes, Bernese Mountain dogs and various mutt mixes. I also have around 2 years of experience working at Pet Supplies Plus and caring for the in-store fostered cats daily as well as the small animals and birds. I have a wide range of experience with differently tempered cats because of this and the small animals I took care of consisted of Syrian hamsters, dwarf hamsters, guinea pigs, gerbils, parakeets, and cockatiels! I also have a lot of knowledge of pet care products to assist you with your pets specific needs! I am currently in college majoring in photography! Thankfully my classes are all evening classes that start at 6pm, Tuesday-Thursday (I am unavailable fridays) so I will have from around 9:30 AM until 5:30 PM daily to care for your companions! I currently have three dogs, one being a Belgian Malinois, one a German Shepherd and the third a Pitbull mutt mix. I also have a fenced in backyard that they play in daily! I am absolutely experienced in the different energy levels and care that dogs may need!

About: I love dogs! I enjoy walking dogs and meeting new dogs. They are such sweet animals and I love to be able to help them see and explore the world on walks. I take care of a 14 year old beagle and go on frequent walks with him. I can walk dogs during my lunch break on weekdays. I can also come in the late afternoon as well to walk your dog. Let me know what you need and I can help accommodate your schedule! I have a beagle that I adore and take him on 3 walks a day. I love walking dogs and meeting new dogs at the dog parks that I visit. I also love taking care of friends dogs and would love to take care of your dog as well!

“Jason is fantastic! Took good care of our 14 year old doggy. A good dude. Highly recommend him.”

About: I have been a devoted dog owner for 13 years, raising both a German Shepherd and a Chihuahua Terrier mix from puppyhood. My two dogs are my world, and that same level of love and dedication is what I bring to every dog in my care. Over the years I’ve cared for dogs of all kinds — from my own pups to friends’, family members’, and others’ dogs — giving me a well-rounded understanding of different breeds, sizes, and personalities. I have a special soft spot for senior dogs and understand the patience, attentiveness, and gentle care they need to feel safe and comfortable. Whether your dog is large or small, I’m experienced with both ends of the spectrum. My German Shepherd and Chihuahua mix are friendly and well-socialized, so your pup will have built-in companions during their stay. When your dog is with me, they’re not just being watched — they’re being loved. I work from home, I am here all day — which means your dog is never left alone for long. My senior dogs go out 3 to 4 times a day, and visiting dogs are welcome to follow that same routine or their own personal schedule. Every dog is different, and I make it a priority to honor whatever routine works best for yours. My home has a private fenced yard where dogs can play, explore, and relieve themselves safely. My own dogs have their own comfortable space, and any dog in my care is given a cozy, secure environment where they can truly relax. Whether your dog is large or small, energetic or easygoing, they will be treated like family from the moment they arrive. Because I work from home, I am here all day — which means your dog is never left alone for long. Every dog in my care follows their own schedule provided by their owner, including feeding times, medications, and any special instructions. I take those details seriously because I know how important routine is, especially for seniors. My home has a private fenced yard where dogs enjoy playtime and regular potty breaks throughout the day. When it’s time to wind down, your pup will have a warm, cozy space to relax and sleep comfortably. And to give you peace of mind while you’re away, I send photo updates so you always know your dog is happy and in good hands.

About: I’ve been talking care of my dog since I was 6. I fed her, walked her, bathed her, etc. I’ve also taken care of neighbors dogs while they went on vacation and gave the dog medicine on time. I’m pretty available any time needed. I’m currently looking for a job, so if anything pops up and I change my schedule, I’ll let you know! I would appreciate if every client would kindly be able to make a list for me to do/ tell me what needs to be done and I will gladly do it.

“Warda is exceptional!!! Hands down the best cat care professional we’ve had. We’ll trust her with all of our pets in the future. She checked on our 19-year-old cat and pilled him twice per day. She played with him, groomed him, and measured his activity. She developed an intricate daily checklist, contacted us with any out of the ordinary info and observations, washed bowls and utensils, took out cat food and litter trash, vacuumed stray litter, and left things neat and organized. Wonderful, responsive communication and planning. We are in awe and were so relaxed during our week away. There aren’t enough superlatives to describe how we feel about our experience with Warda.”

“Kylee is so kind and responsive! I love receiving pictures of my dog, Charlee, and seeing how well she's being taken care of!”

About: I've just recently for a year now have been blessed with a beautiful mini golden doodle. I saw him grow up and taught him everything he knows as he was only a puppy when I got him. I've also babysit other dogs when my neighbors have gone away on vacation. I currently am a ISU student and have a lot of free time on my hands. I mainly have classes during the middle of the day but am very flexible and we can get to know each other's schedule to make it perfect. I love to just constantly have a furry animal around me, i shower them with love and will always play with them and take them on walks!

“This is our first time using Amie. She was AWESOME! She watched our cats, stopping by twice a day for a week. She was diligent about food and water, cleaning litter boxes, and sending photos. More importantly, she took the time to visit and play with Artie (Bert hides). She got on the floor and talked to Artie. She's got my vote. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.”

About: As far as I remember myself, I always had a cat in my house. From childhood I wanted to become a veterinarian and although I’ve gotten a different degree, my passion for animals never went away. I have a cat of my own, have work experience from a dog and cat daycare center, and experience from volunteering in Humane Society, so I know what kind of a care a pet deserves. Additionally, I took safety training at the pet daycare center, which thought me how to handle myself with cats and dogs in the best way. I am working part-time and have most days available for taking care of your pets! Usually I’m available every day in early mornings and after 5 pm, and any time on Fridays and weekends For boarding, I have a spacious home with a fenced backyard if you desire your cats to take a stroll and I know how to safely take you dog on a walk!
