About: With over 20 years of hands-on experience, I bring more than just pet sitting — I bring true peace of mind. I’ve worked with animals of all kinds, from energetic puppies and curious cats to senior pets with special needs. Animals aren’t just a job to me , they’re family. I pride myself on creating a calm, loving, and safe environment for every pet in my care. Whether it’s belly rubs, medication schedules, or just quality companionship, I treat each pet like my own. I understand their body language, their routines, and most importantly, their hearts. Pet care isn’t something I squeeze in, it’s something I’ve intentionally made space for. I work from home, which means I have the flexibility to give your pets the attention they need throughout the day. I don’t have young children or other pets, so my focus stays 100% on your furry family member. This allows me to create a calm, low-stress environment tailored just for them, whether they need playtime, cuddles, medication, or just a cozy lap to nap on. I take the time to understand each pet’s unique needs, personality, and quirks. Whether they’re energetic or anxious, playful or shy, I meet them where they are with patience and kindness. I also send regular updates, photos, and videos so you feel close and connected while you’re away.

“She was definitely a delight to have watch over our fur babies! Not only does she take good care of our babies and send us good pictures, but you can clearly see our babies enjoyed her company. We will definitely be using Ellen again in the future thank you, Ellen.”


About: I have had and taken care of animals as long as I can remember. I will treat your pet as my very own! Not just providing basic needs but love and attention! I work part time so I would consider caring for your fur babies as an after workday pleasure to wrap up my day and will be excited to spend some time playing with them! I will care for your fur babies as my own. If you have any special instructions please let me know and leave a detailed note explaining these requirements!

About: I have had pets since I was a little girl. I have learned how to handle dogs and take care of them. I groomed my poodle, lhasa apsos and shih tsu since 1980. My dogs are deceased now and instead of getting any others I would love to help pet owners who need some time away or just need someone to help out from time to time. Many days I will be free to care for small dogs. I attend church on Sunday mornings and Wednesday evenings. I also will be traveling and doing missions work. I will use a leash to be sure your pet is safe while outside. When I am caring for someone else's animal I will be with it at all times. I can care for them at my home or yours.

About: We enjoy helping pets maintain healthy exercise to reduce stress, boost mood, and increase mental energy. Experience with administering medication and following very specific care instructions. I have volunteered at animal hospitals and I am a certified dog trainer; specific skills include “obedience training & behavior modification.” My understanding & experience helps me identify issues and reinforce good behavior with love & care. I demonstrate excellent communication, dog handling, and problem-solving skills. We only book one family at a time to ensure the safety of all pets we care for. 🏡 Full-Time, In-Home Care | Safety First 🐾 I work remotely from home and have a very flexible schedule, which means I’m here full-time to give your pets the attention they deserve. I never leave pets unsupervised — your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. 🐾 Safety First, Always 🐾 We prefer to book only one family at a time so we can dedicate 100% of our attention to the pets in our care. This ensures a calm, personalized, and loving environment—just like home. Experienced & Compassionate Pet Care 🐾 I have experience working with a wide variety of animals, including dogs, cats, birds, and small mammals. I take pride in providing a high level of care to ensure the safety, comfort, and overall well-being of every pet. You can count on me to maintain a clean, hygienic environment and to be dependable every step of the way. Whether it’s playtime, feeding, or quiet companionship, I’m here to make your pet feel safe and loved while you’re away. 🐶🐱🐦🐰

“I came home to some happy old dogs. Thank you, Katelyn!”


About: I've grown up with a yorkie (family dog). Within the last year I adopted a dog of my own. He's a black lab/australian shepherd mix who has become my best friend. He's unfortunately living with my parents for the summer which is why I'm hoping to hangout with some furry friends! I'm currently in Peoria to train and play soccer! I'm hoping to start a part-time job soon, but I'd love to hangout with some pets and help out some owners in the meantime! I cannot care for pets at my apartment because it does not allow pets, but I am open to other options! I love going on walks and staying active!

About: I have a lifetime of experience caring for pets of all shapes and sizes as well as 8 years professionally training dogs of all shapes, sizes, breeds and temperaments. I train basic and advanced obedience, working dogs, service animals and more. I am confident and comfortable caring for dogs that otherwise might be difficult for others without experience in the behavioral field, while keeping safety at the forefront of every interaction. Additionally, I have 5 years of vet tech experience, giving me the ability and willingness to care for pets with medical problems, senior pets, pets requiring medication or pets with special needs. I have owned and cared for farm animals for much of my teenage and adult life, allowing me to offer care for pets outside of the home such as bovine, horses, goats, pigs and chickens. I am comfortable with birds, reptiles and exotic pets, having raised rabbits most of my life as well as owning guinea pigs, snakes, sugar gliders and a quaker parrot. I am CPR certified and have attended several emergency care courses for cats and dogs. My passion has led me to providing pet care and dog training services full-time, allowing for me to provide services for you and your pets year-round! I provide pet care and training services full time, year-round! I am available for last minute requests and can handle care for pets with special needs or behavioral problems- keeping safety for both parties as a priority. My home is set up for the care of pets. I have several rooms for dogs of different temperaments and preferences as well as multiple fenced in yards to allow for play times and potty times in small groups or individually as needed. In the summertime, morning bathroom breaks are longer to allow for plenty of playtime before it gets too hot outside. We provide at LEAST 4 bathroom breaks throughout the day. During peak heat hours, outside breaks are shorter. Once things cool off in the evening, I provide another longer playtime outside. Not every dog cares for or does well with other dogs so temperament testing will be done before they are free to play with the others. All dogs are supervised when out at all times. Dogs in my home will be kenneled for bedtime or if I need to run a short errand (groceries, doctor appointment, private training lesson with a client, etc.) Care in the client's home will be discussed before the job starts. Everybody has different preferences and I strive to provide the best care possible for pets while owners are away!

“Mikayla took on my 5 month old German Shorthaired Pointer at the last minute and did a great job taking care of him. Even though he is a complete handful!”

“Jane has been wonderful! Very caring, pleasant, responsible and timely. Jane is lovely to work with. I will definitely call her whenever needed in the future. Thank you Jane! 🥰”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was a kid. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe and love their pets as my own. Currently I am working remotely so my schedule is pretty open! I love a days notice but I also understand life happens and last minute emergencies pop up! Feel free to message me whenever :) I should be a stay at home fur baby mom. I will take care of your animal as if it’s my own. I will send pictures and updates to you if wanted

About: I adopted my own boy and learned a lot just from our short visits in the shelter. I was asked to volunteer at the shelter for my strong dedication to helping him learn and providing the love he needed. I currently work at the hospital with an unusual shift. My schedule does vary, but I’m ready to fill my extra days loving in some fur babies! I have my own dog and know the worry of having to leave them by themselves. I will take care of your fur baby like my own! Unfortunately I will not be able to take any dogs into my own home as my current dog is animal aggressive from being attacked previously.

About: I have been working in vet med as a tech/assistant for the last 3 years. But I have always had animals my whole life that has lined me up to know how to take care of them and to point out if something is wrong with one of them. I make time for all of the babies. Their needs and wants always come before mine. As I was once told I feed and spoil them better then myself. I make sure they have all the clean water and food that they need and the vet care that’s needed to make sure they are as healthy as can be.
