Pet Sitting in Grand Island

“Ashley was absolutely amazing with our dog and cat! She stayed in touch well and our pets loved her. We can’t wait to have her back next time we need someone!”

About: As a dedicated dog owner myself and longtime resident of Grand Island, I treat every pet with the same love and patience I give my own. I am familiar with our local neighborhoods and parks and I am committed to being a dependable resource for those who need a trustworthy professional to step in while they are away. Because I work from home full-time, your pet becomes my ‘co-worker’ for the day! My schedule allows me to provide consistent companionship, regular potty breaks, and playtime. My routine is very stable, which is perfect for dogs who get anxious when left alone. I am primarily available for weekday boarding and can often accommodate weekend stays with advance notice. Your pup will enjoy a calm, professional home environment where they are never just an afterthought. Safety and comfort are my top priorities. In my home, I have a fenced in backyard where dogs can safely enjoy fresh air and playtime throughout the day. Because I work from home, I provide a supervised environment with a consistent routine of potty breaks, mid-day stretches, and plenty of companionship. I apply the same attention to detail mentioned when caring for pets in their homes.

About: I was born and raised around dogs, there was always at least one if not two in the house with my family. There was Toby the Irish Setter mix, Jenny the cocker mix, Belle the bassett mix, and Sadie the golden mix. And currently living at my parents house is Zoe an elderly yorkie/terrier mix, Coco another yorkie/terrier mix who is about 5 years old, and Pepper a 2.5 year old black lab cattle dog mix. I frequently watch one, two, or all three when my parents go out of town. This includes dispensing medication to Zoe who has a heart condition. I also just finished up a six month job where I would go over to the owners home mid-day to let out, walk, and spend time with their black lab/cocker spaniel mix named Token. I've never met a dog I didn't like or who didn't like me (so far!). I have some instinctual knack when it comes to them. Although I have not received formal training, my love, compassion, and self taught knowledge about behavior helps me to quickly understand and determine how to best care for your furbaby. I am content caring for an elderly dog who likes to snooze most of the day and equally content with one who needs lots of exercise. I love to exercise so I can walk as far as your pooch wants me to go. I advocate for all animals when needed. I encourage pet owners not to give up because of a dogs bad behavior but to seek training instead. But the biggest thing comes back to love. They love us unconditionally and I give them the same back. I'm currently available during the day, all day, most days of the week including weekends if needed. I'm a night owl so if you need someone to pop in to let your dog out while you work third shift, I'm the one for you! I can crate your dog if needed and if at your home, and you have a fenced yard, I love throwing balls or toys around for them to fetch and run around.

About: Whether it’s a high-energy pup or a sensitive senior, I bring years of hands-on experience to every sit. My friends and family have relied on me for years to keep their pets safe and happy while they’re away. I’m comfortable managing the specific needs of various species (dogs, cats, parakeets, fish, rodents, rabbits, quail) ensuring your home stays calm and your pets feel loved. My schedule varies and is incredibly flexible. Whether your pup needs a mid-day stroll, your cat needs time-sensitive feedings, your fur babies need late-night cuddles or just someone to keep them company, I can easily accommodate your needs. There is no place like home, and I’m here to ensure your pets stay secure, happy and relaxed in theirs. Whether it's overnight sitting or drop-in visits, I treat your home with the highest level of care and your pets like my own family. You can rest easy knowing I’m never far away and always have time for a belly rub!

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was around 10. I have two dogs and two cats of my own. I’ve trained both of my dogs through an obedience course and one of them is even certified to go into classrooms! I without a doubt will treat your animals like they’re my own. I’m currently a stay-at-home mom, so I’m usually around all week long and am able to be more flexible with my schedule if need be. I have a fenced in yard and two dogs of my own to play with your pup. I also have a crate available if needed!

“Very communicative and friendly!”

“Reilly did an amazing job watching our cat Marvin while we were out of the country. She was very responsive, and sent frequent updates and photos/videos during her visits. It was really great not having to worry about Marvin while we were gone, knowing he was in good hands with Reilly! I'd highly recommend Reilly to anyone here on Rover!”

About: I have dog sat for friends and family for about 8 years and I have worked at a vet clinic in kennels for the last 5 years. I've had lots of pets growing up and always took care of them. I am also currently a sophomore in college studying Veterinary Technology. I am currently working part time and home for winter break so I have lots of time to care for your pets! I am available weekdays and weekends but will have to work around my vet schedule. I have a fenced in yard with 3 dogs and 2 cats in the house, all are welcoming to new friends! I can keep your pets crated if they need to be but I will spend lots of time loving on them. I can stop over to your home multiple times a day to feed, let out, and play with your pet. I am able to do whatever other needs are necessary to keep you and your pups happy.

About: I love animals, I can get along with all types of dogs, cats, birds, lizards, etc. I have always grew up with having a pet or 2 ! I work mainly on the weekends! Giving me enough time during the week to care for your pets with my full attention, care, love, treats I have a fenced in back yard, I can easily crate your animal (dog, cat, even birds) with cameras to monitor if I step inside for any reason.

About: Hey! My name is Kenneth. I’ve loved dogs literally my whole life — I grew up with them, learned how to care for them early on, and I feel like they just naturally connect with me. I have experience walking dogs, helping groom them, and taking care of pets for family and friends, especially when they travel or need someone they trust. I’m currently a college student and I work multiple jobs, so I know how to manage time well and stay responsible. Even though I stay busy, I’m very committed to making sure your pets get the attention, love, and care they deserve. If you book with me, I’ll always communicate clearly, send updates, and make sure you feel confident that your pet is safe and happy. Whether your dog needs long walks, company, playtime, or a calm presence, I’ve got you. Just message me what you need and I’ll do my best to make it work!

“Marty did a great job! Great communication. I will use her again.”

About: I’ve always grown up with pets and learned from my mother how to take care and love them as a family and best friend and I am now a crazy cat lady 💛 I currently am employed so my schedule may vary, but regardless I will communicate my schedule with you! I’m currently just staying with drop in visits & walks due to my cats never being introduced to other animals, but willingly to make the time and commitment necessary for your furry friend! In my home I’d play with my animal, clean after my animal (bathe/cat litter, I make sure my animals are fed and comfortable each and everyday! For your pet I’d do what you prefer me to do for them but I’d do what any pet needs if you don’t have a preference. Just let me know if your pet has any special needs or diet just let me know so I can be prepared to make a comfortable space for your pet! Every morning as soon as I wake up, I take the time to refill my cats water each morning and make sure they are all fed, and for evenings when I come home I make sure to do a double take of they’re litter box to estimate when it needs to be cleaned next & feed & refill they’re water with fresh water. Since at the moment I am doing in clients homes, I always make sure to have respect each and every sit I do, as in taking my shoes off and making sure the house looks the exact same as I leave! I always like to double check with my clients and ask if there is any specific needs or wants for they’re pets before the sit, just so I get a better understanding of they’re pet and if there is anything more I need to know.

“Marilyn was wonderful with our two Labs Zoey and Remi! This was the first time we used a pet sitter on a drop in basis. We have had some not so great experiences with boarding them when we have been away so we decided to try this. We are so happy we did. Marilyn always arrived when we requested, did everything we asked her to do, and even sent photos and videos. Our dogs were happy and content, which is priceless and relieved our stress in leaving them. Will absolutely use her services again.”

About: My family has had animals since I was little. As I’ve gotten older my love for them has grown. My boyfriend is a dog trainer and has taught me quite a bit on the subject and dogs behaviors. I’d love to help care for yours and help in anyway I’m currently a server and will have plenty of time to care for your loving pets. I mostly work evenings so my days are free :) I take my babies to the dog park and on daily mile walks plus short walks around the block. I also have kennels and plenty of stimulation such as toys, treats, puzzles, and kongs to keep them working physically and mentally.

I’m available for pet care after 10am, seven days a week. With advance notice, I can start earlier if needed. Overnight stays are also an option for families who prefer round-the-clock care.
