House Sitting in Hartford

“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!”

“Lawrence took great care of our dog and house while we were away— would definitely recommend him! Our dog is often anxious around new people but she liked him pretty much immediately.”

“This was a long stay and we were able to enjoy the time away knowing our pup was well cared for at home enjoying Regular walks and outside play.”

“I was super hesitant to have a sitter in house for my pup because I was scared of my house being a wreck when I came back. Thankfully, this fear did not come true with Mary as a sitter. They were clean and kept my apartment how I left it… if not better. They sent me quite a few update pictures of my pup, and just regular updates in general. They also made sure my pup was okay with plenty of water in the time it was going to take me to get home after they left. Your pup will be in good hands with Mary!”

“Brandi was an absolute delight to work with. You will be instantly at ease with her caring for your pets. She is thorough, kind, and it was amazing to come home from a trip to happy and relaxed animals. Brandi communicates so well by sending pictures and updates. Will be using her services again and again! Thank you Brandi?”

“Chandra was great with my puppy and was very accommodating despite the fact that my booking was made with short notice. She gave frequent updates and was quick to respond to this worried puppy mama during my first time away. I felt much better knowing Valentine was in Chandra's care. Thank you!!!”

About: Hi, thank you so much for stopping by to read through my profile. I’m stoked to start this journey. I have loved and taken care of friend’s and family’s dogs for years. Big, small, medium, even tempered, wild, mellow, I absolutely love them all. I have a 11 year old black lab, who’s slowed down a lot. She is my everything. She just can’t move like she used to and I find something about raising a dog from a young pup to an aging one, so very special and rewarding. If your dog is fast paced or likes to smell every blade of grass, I’m game. Rain, shine, or snow, I’m available. I’d absolutely appreciate it if you gave me the opportunity to spoil your dog, not just walk. I understand these are your babies. My house is also open with a fenced in back yard and lots of attention and love offered. Let me know what questions or concerns you might have! I work Monday-Friday, I am free in the evenings and off on Thursdays typically. I’m free on most holidays like Thanksgiving(so keep that in mind).** I am free on most weekends. ** Also please note, I’m willing to travel to MO from IL side. My house is open and I have a great fenced in area. Your dog will be spoiled rotten over here. Lots of pets and attention. I also know how important a walk is to a dog, it’s the highlight of their day! We’d make the most of it.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs every kind for as long as I can remember weather it was for my parents, friends and neighbors.

I love to play with fur babies

About: I have taken care of pets since I was a child. I have predominantly had dogs and cats. I treat all animals with the utmost love and care. I have had pets through full life cycle so I understand the varying needs based on age. I currently work full time but am off Friday through Sunday so looking for people that need weekend help. I would also be a le to do some evenings during the week. I have a fenced yard and work from home so my dogs are well taken care of. I have the ability to watch, play with, walk and feed animals in your home. I would gladly follow any routine and instructions you have.

“Jaelyn was so good to my pups! She sent me some pictures and a report during the day. My mother in law was at my home too (but unable to help out with the dogs) and she told me how very sweet Jaelyn is and how good she was with my fur-babies! I wish there were 6 stars. When the day comes that I need River again, she will be a repeat for me.”

About: I bring a unique blend of patience, attentiveness, and genuine love for animals that helps me quickly build trust with both pets and their people. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality and needs whether that means keeping a playful pup busy or making sure a senior dog feels safe and comfortable. Here’s a bit about my experience: • Puppy care, leash walking, and reinforcing basic commands • Senior dogs, with gentle handling, slower-paced walks, and medication routines • Special needs pets, providing calm, detail-oriented care • Administering medications (oral, topical, and injectable) • Multi-pet households, managing dynamics so everyone gets love and attention I always prioritize communication I’ll send regular updates and photos so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. I truly treat every animal as if they were my own, creating a calm and loving environment while you’re away. I’m planning to transition out of my hourly job and become a full-time sitter while in school. Balancing classes and work can be a lot, but pet care has always been something that brings me joy and helps me decompress. I carefully plan my schedule to make sure I’m fully present and attentive with every pet I care for. Whether it’s early mornings, evenings, or weekends, I’m committed to providing consistent, loving, and reliable care that fits both your pet’s needs and my routine. I focus on creating a calm, safe, and engaging environment that matches each pet’s routine and comfort level. In my home, I keep things clean, pet-proofed, and stocked with toys, cozy spaces, and outdoor access for breaks and playtime. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions closely feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any specific habits or routines. I make sure pets feel secure and loved, whether they’re in familiar surroundings or visiting mine.

About: I’ve always loved animals and have a passion for taking care of them. I have an older dog and a cat at home, so I’m used to giving pets lots of love, attention, and the extra care seniors need. I’ll treat your pets like my own and make sure they feel safe and happy while you’re away. I am currently a full time student at Lewis and Clark Community College so I have plenty of time to care for animals on the side! When I’m caring for pets on walks or in your home, I always make sure they feel comfortable and safe. On walks, I’ll go at their pace, make sure they stay hydrated, and give them plenty of time to sniff and explore. In your home, I’ll stick to their normal routine, give them lots of love and attention, and keep things clean and calm so they feel right at home even while you’re away.

“Lette did an amazing job with house sitting and watching our Emma girl. During her stay she kept us updated and even sent some precious pictures of our Emma. She was in constant communication with us. We highly recommend and will definitely book her again in the future!”

About: Been caring for dogs since I was 5; Own a standard goldendoodle along with mini goldendoodle boys of my own. As well as a shih-tzu, so rounded out experience with dogs of varying sizes. Also have done house sitting for my relatives. I’m currently unemployed, when I do get a job/online schooling I’ll update my schedule. However, my genuine passions for animals make it less of a ‘job’ and more of a hobby :) For my own dogs, I ensure they’re walked at most every three hours. Access to water from when I wake up to a few hours before bed. ALWAYS leash my animals before I take them out. My mother is a dog trainer and taught me body language so I can tell if they’re uncomfortable or not.

“Jenny is the absolute BEST!! I was so anxious leaving my babies and she immediately put me at ease. She has been sending me pictures and letting me know how they are doing 3x a day!! She will be missed when we return by our pups!! Thank you Jenny!!”
