4. Jenny H.
“As a nervous cat mom, I was worried about finding someone I could trust to care for Daisy. Jenny put me at ease immediately when we met and shared stories about her own cats I could relate to. I felt comfortable leaving Daisy knowing Jenny would take good care of her. Her notes about her visits were so helpful and Daisy was well fed and cared for when I returned. This was a wonderful experience for both Daisy and I.”

Extremely reliable and consistent to depend on Danielle.”

9. Melanie C.
“Melanie went above and beyond in every way! I was not very familiar with the terms and whatnot of Rover and she helped me figure out what would be best for us.

12. Maria M.
About: I have cared for cats, dogs, hamsters, and hedgehogs since I was 13 years old! I often cared for senior cats who were 18+ years old so I am very used to giving medications and special diets. I grew up with dogs and am very comfortable with dogs of all sizes. I recently welcomed a puppy, so I also have experience with puppy training. Our home has one resident dog, but I have a two-level house, so I can keep pets separate for boarding. I am happy to send check-in photos of your little buddy while you are away and provide lots of long walks and playtime! I am currently in between jobs as I focus on my online courses, so I am home full-time to care for your babies! All I ask is 3 days' notice for boarding. Every animal's needs are different, and I am incredibly flexible depending on you and your little buddy's needs! For boarding, I have one resident dog that loves all cats and dogs (he is only 12 lbs, so he is not intimidating in the slightest!). I also have a two-story house, so I am able to keep the pets separated if your pet prefers to be the only animal around.
13. Kaylee S.
“Kaylee was so patient and professional with our little guy. He endured past abuse so he is very timid with strangers, but he warmed up to her amazingly! Dogs are great judges of character! She kept in great contact and was so thorough! We will definitely use her in the future.”
14. Danielle M.
“Terrific care and communication!”
15. Karen S.
“Karen is extremely caring about fur babies. She's loved animals for as long as I can remember. She would do anything for pets in her care to keep them happy & healthy! You can put absolute trust in her. ❤️”
16. Amanda W.
“Amanda is excellent. Not only is her communication top notch but so is the care and attention to detail she had for my cats/my asks (her 1st sitting was for 18 drop ins over 10 days). My pets loved her too, she is clearly an animal lover, they came right to her on the 1st visit. I highly recommend her.”

About: I provide pet sitting in my home for puppies and small dogs (under 20 lbs). I also provide drop in services to your home and dog walking. My son and I have have been dog walking and sitting for others in the Riverbend area for the past 10 years. I LOVE traveling so I know how important (and difficult) it is to find a dog sitter you can trust and rely on while you're gone. I love all dogs and enjoy meeting new clients whether I am dropping in for visits or walks or boarding in my home. Please reach out with any questions. I am a mother of two adult children and work a hybrid schedule. I have lots of free time and have been dog walking and sitting for over 10 years with my son. We started dog walking and sitting together when he was 12 and he will be starting college soon and I want to continue our side business on my own. We have 2 acres on a cul-de-sac in Godfrey and enjoy talking walks. We have a large home that is safe and dog friendly. I can also do drop-ins while you are away.

“Vivian was very responsive and spent loads of time with my pup over her drop in visits. She took care of everything that I asked for perfectly.”

About: i take pride in my knowledge and accuracy when it comes to pet care considering i've been taking care of basically every animal you can think of from a very early age, wildlife(raccoons, squirrels, deer, etc), common household pets, reptiles(including alligators), fish, birds, farm animals, even a bengal tiger.i have trained puppies, kittens, horses, cows, and raccoons i've raised as well! to give some insight of the babies i have as of now are 2 kittens i rescued and bottle fed, named Rigby and mordecai, a dog named khaleesi we rescued she's currently 8 with the same midset and playfulness as a puppy, and a ten year old bearded dragon named doris i've cared and loved for ever since he hatched. i plan to make petcare a full time job, until i plan to go to vet school. hopefully i can make some furry friends along the way! :) i care for all my pets as if they were my own children. all my pets get yearly check ups, daily vitamins, brushed daily(including teeth) and have set feeding schedules to ensure their health. my many years experience in handling animals helps me
20. Ashley T.
“If you are looking for a sitter to take care of your fur baby(s), Ashley is your girl! Trust me when I say you will not have to worry about anything when your pups or cats are with her and her family. I don't just leave mine with anyone. I know they will be taken care of, loved on, and for whatever needs come up, that I will be called or text to let know what's going on. She is dependable, adjustable, caring, compassionate. She was even the reason for our last addition, well 2 additions lol. Her love for animals has been passed on to her son as well. Big hearts for the fur babies!”
